Duel The Renegade

Kallous brought his starship out of hyperspace, the stolen vessel popping into existence just outside the atmosphere of an isolated, nameless moon on the edge of Sith space. The moon was habitable and did support life, but there were no settlements on its surface. If there was civilization to be found it was primitive, because the moon didn’t even have a proper name, only a number, VHS-1976.

He brought the ship into the atmosphere and found a suitable landing zone. A small clearing at the base of a mountain where his starship could land without any problems. He didn’t think to hide it, because this was a remote part of space, and he doubted anyone would come for him here. Which made it perfect.

He had just left the world of Veridia, after having a brief conversation with a Jedi Padawan, who had given him some profound advice that he intended to take. But he didn’t want to get tangled up in the Jedi, and that Padawan had a master on that same world that he didn’t want to meet.

So he’d left in favor of a more isolated place. This time he was more careful about his selected destination. Making sure that there were no settlements of any sort on it, that way he wouldn’t be bothered this time while he meditated.

He ascended the mountain a ways, finding a shallow cave halfway up the slope. It was away from the elements, and it was quiet. Perfect.

Kallous sat on his knees in the middle of this cave, and closed his eyes.

He remembered the Padawan’s advice, don’t think. Feel.

And so he did, a few moments taken to clear his mind of his invasive thoughts, and instead turning all of his attention inward, letting his emotions go, letting his feelings wrestle. And letting them fill him so he could parse them through and reach the answer he was looking for.

Her boots trekked throw the mountains, as she looked at her datapad. A marker showed her where to go and if she was heading in the right direction. Her ship was about a mile back, choosing to approach on foot. Her thinking if she had landed right next to the targets ship, they would be easily spooked, and she might have to track them to a different system. This journey had already been long enough for her after she got an alert a fugitive had been spotted on Veridia.

Sith loyalists on Veridia had marked the ship with a tracker, now whether this was the fugitive or just a wild goose chase was another matter altogether. Tamsin had been sent to investigate since this fugitive was supposed to be an apprentice the inquisition felt it would be a good test for her. Her job was simple investigate assess if this was the fugitive if it was attempt to apprehend, kill only if necessary.

She approached the ship cautiously but as she did, she couldn't sense anyone inside. She looked around for signs of anyone in the immediate area. She looked around the ship for a bit until she saw some footprints leading off from the ship and up a mountain. So she began to follow the tracks up the mountain.


 
Kallous was utterly unaware that he was being tracked. He hadn’t thought any sith would be on Veridia, and he hadn’t seen any during his brief stay on the surface of that planet. So he didn’t bother to mask himself from the force, leaving his presence easy to sense to anyone who bothered looking for it.

Tamsin Graves Tamsin Graves would sense him even before she found his ship, sensing an internal struggle within her target. She would see in his mind recent memories, memories of a world that had recently rebelled against the Sith, and had attempted to join with the Galactic Alliance. Only the retaliatory force had gotten there first, of which Kallous had been a part.

Visions of him slaughtering his way through the battlefield were to be expected, Sith were often mighty in war, even those not fully trained. With a Sith Apprentice being the same level as a Jedi Knight, they weren’t to be scoffed at by anyone. But perhaps most telling were the visions where his blade had been stayed, an image of a ship full of rebel citizens, a vision where he put his weapon away and let them go.

Immediately following this were visions of his duel with his former Master. His crimes against the Sith Empire plain for her to see as he wrestled with what he had done, and tried to reconcile with himself what he had been taught, and what he had learned.

He did not sense her approach. And she would have ample time to scale the mountain and reach him, with no worry of him noticing her presence. His attention was elsewhere.

As she trekked up the mountain following the tracks, she quickly checked over her gear making sure it was all in order. It wasn't long though and the tracks led to a cave, she stood outside of the cave for a moment, closing her eyes briefly and letting her senses extend outward from her. A voice in her head spoke to her as she did it though. "You feel it don't you." Tamsin growled under her breathe the spirit in her was growing bolder, but it was right it felt someone in the cave.

Her mind thought through her options of approach. She could enter and maybe catch whoever was inside off guard. She could stand outside of the cave and try to call whoever was inside out. Both options had their drawbacks though, one if it wasn't the person she was looking for she could easily harm an innocent person. Two if she stood outside and called it could be the right person, and she would push them further into the cave.

She thought for a moment longer and unstrapped her saber from her belt. She opened her eyes, and her feet began to move forward as she ignited her saber with a snap hiss the synthetic red blade coming to a life. As she entered the cave cautiously her weapon at the ready when she spotted a figure in the dark cave up ahead.

"Identify yourself, I command you on the authority of the Sith Order." She called out to the figure just ahead of her.



 
Kallous remained unaware of the Sith approaching him. His thoughts focused inward on his tumultuous emotions. However his meditation was shattered when he heard the ignition of a lightsaber.

His eyes snapped open and his head turned slightly to the side as anger flared up in his chest at the interruption. He’d been making so much progress! The annoyance that bothered him now had destroyed all the self reflection he’d just done.

He stood up from his kneeling position and turned to look at the interloper, his eyes fully yellowed by his fury. He had yet to master control over his emotions, and so was far more prone to such failings.

“What does it matter to you?” He asked, igniting his own saber in preparation to meet this foe head-on.

She watched as his yellowed eyes turned to face her and his saber ignited. He questioned why, who he was mattered to her. She had to wonder if he had miss understood her and the authority in which she had uttered. Yet by him drawing his saber he had already given his answer, he understood her command he was just being antagonistic.

"I am an Inquisitor of the Sith Order, I am hunting a rogue sith." She declared more clearly as she brought her saber up into a more readied position. Judging by his eyes and saber this was in fact the man she was hunting. "I suggest you surrender yourself now and not make this harder than it has to be."

Though she knew he was going to make it harder. Her saber in her right hand in a defensive position, her left hand hung at her side palm open as rocks and dirt began to slowly levitate around her. Her own dark eyes staring right back into his yellowed tired eyes. He was a lot taller than her she noted as she sized him up so she would have to use speed and agility to her advantage with him having reach and strength. "It's up to you how you want this play out?"



 
“And I suggest you leave before I kill you.” He would tell her, his patience for interruptions like this had grown thin. He’d had to deal with no less than three others hunting him. And this had gotten irritating. He also mirrored her position of hovering rocks around him, with the intent of bludgeoning her into submission should this get violent.

But interestingly enough he was still offering her a way out. Far more tempered than most Sith would be. He didn’t approach her, he didn’t move to attack just yet, but he was absolutely prepared to put her fighting skill to the test.

Even as this went on however, that little dim light in his heart that refused to leave was growing a little brighter. Urging him not to kill this person, even if he won.

She let out a deep sigh as he spoke the words kill you. Damn her luck, her first time out on her own and this guy wanted a fight. Yet he didn't make the first move, of course he didn't he just mimicked her actions. Her dark eyes stared at him directly in his yellow eyes and she could feel the hair on the back of her neck stand on end. The demon in her she could feel it churning and then her eyes flashed a sulfuric orange as the rocks she had been holding up went flying like little missiles towards the man across from her.

"So be it." She spoke calmly.

Then her legs began to move as she rushed towards the man right behind her little missile rocks. As she tried to clear the distance her saber held in her right hand in a defensive position cash across in a left to right slash aiming for the man's midsection. The rocks at best were just a defensive mask they would collide with his own rocks.
