Betrayal: A true war story *Revised*
Part 1: Helos Pendragon, Traitor.
In the days of the Old Republic, Coruscant only had one Jedi
Temple. A massively large complex, it housed the entire Jedi
Order’s library, it’s living quarters and training facilities,
its’ council chambers and any number of other uses.
In the last thousand years since Skorrda Wrath merged the
Republic with various Sith and Jedi organizations, it now had
three. The Jedi from the Academy Remnant had one, mostly for
recruiting purposes, the Temple Jedi used the original one, and
then there was the Imperial Legion’s Jedi Temple, located near
its embassies.
The Legion Jedi Temple was roughly half the size of the original
Temple, as it had orginally been constructed as a side facility
for the Jedi Order of old. Skorrda had kept it properly
outfitted and even remarkably updated through the centuries,
choosing it as the place young Jedi could come and be trained
when not on the field.
Every house of the Imperial Legion had its own facility to train
their own recruits, of course. The Pendragon Alliance had New
Avalon, the Arryn Fellowship had the Lion’s Den, etc. But at
this temple, many recruits were sent to learn their lessons at
the best state of the art facility in the galaxy. Many Magosi,
who would never take on the responsibility of being a Jedi,
would still come here to receive a few lessons so that they
could properly learn to use their gifts.
Most days, the Legion Temple was a place of learning with the
only action anyone could see being a battle simulation or a
training exercise.
Not this day...
Helios forced pushed the temple guard into a pillar. The
strength of the push caused the impact of the guard to crack the
pillar. Helios used his Ataru to side step and block a soresu
strike from another guard then continued into a shien and
severed the guards leg from his body. The guard fell to ground
with scream. The smell of burnt flesh soon followed.
The remaining guards kept their distance. They knew Helios was
not playing around. "You will return what you took Helios" said
one of the braver guards. Helios replied by punching the air in
his direction and a force push projected out of his fist and
crushed the man’s jaw. Bloody teeth clattered to the floor.
Two guards seeking to over whelm Helios with numbers attacked
him at once. Their strikes where quick and precise. It took
everything he had to block the strikes and find an opening.
Helios force pushed the guard on his left and attacked the guard
on his right with a lower shien coming from the left. The guard
dropped into Makashi 6 and blocked the strike. Helios struck
again blending a lower shien from the right into vaapad.
“I’m through listening to the Jedi’s lies!” He shouted. “I’m
tired of being controlled by the Imperial Legion! No more!”
His blade connected with back of his opponent's blade and
repelled through his opponent cutting him in half at the waste.
Helios turned his attention to the remaining guards. The wounded
guards did their best to hide their pain but their wimpers
betrayed them. "That’s enough!" Boomed an authoritative voice.
The remaining guards parted and from behind them stepped out the
Grand Master of the Imperial Legion Jarvan. A feeling of Dread
settled into the pit of Helios's stomach. There was no chance he
could defeat Jarvan and he knew it. Jarvan ignited his saber,
its purple blade erupting from his hilt. Calmly, he advanced on
Helios.
“Why have you betrayed us, Helios?”
“I am done being used, I am done fighting for a cause I no
longer believe in!”
Jarvan sighed. “I would never have thought you’d go this way.”
He sounded like a disappointed father. “You’ve always been
aggressive, Going to the Dark Side would not surprise me, but to
betray the Legion? They got to you, didn’t they/ They’ve made
you doubt...”
“You’re talking about the True Sith, Jarvan.” Helios crowed.
“The True Sith who will rain destruction on this Temple one day
very soon.”
“The True Sith who are going to get my boot up their ass, yes.”
“Taunt me all you want,” Helios sneered. “I am no longer afraid
of you.”
“Fair enough.” Jarvan said though he brought a hand up to his
chin. “Though, I do wonder then why you haven’t attacked me yet.
”
Helios attempted to halt the Grand Master’s advancement with a
force push. The push clashed Harmlessly against Jarvans barrier.
"Helios you fucked up." Jarvan said coldly while touching the
ground "Disable." Suddenly Helios connection to the force was
suddenly ripped away from him. It was as if someone had just cut
the strings that held him upright. Helios had not felt this
vulnerable in a long time.
The Grand Master lunged at Helios with an upper soresu strike
followed by a makashi strike to his shoulder. Helios became
fully on the defensive now and began backing up to the exit of
the temple. Jarvan’s onslaught continued, the strikes never
quite landing as if designed only to push Helios to focus only
on defense without actually striking him.
“Is this how you want your legacy to be, son?” Jarvan asked.
“The True Sith are going to fall, and I swear I’ll be the
fucking one to bring them down.”
“Talk, talk, talk! The True Sith believe in action!” Helios
rushed forward and swung at Jarvan’s head, hoping to kill the
Grandmaster with a lucky stroke of blade. Jarvan blocked it
effortlessly and caught the blade with his own. Twirling it, he
brought Helios’ blade into a swirl ending it in a slice that
severed his saber at the emitter.
Disconnected from the force and Ashbringer now in ruins Helios
took the only option he had left. He ran.
“The True Sith will prevail, Jarvan! With my help!”
“Running from a fight, Helios? Erenim will be ashamed when he
finds out.”
The sound of his master’s name caught Helios unprepared. For
just a second, he thought he could hear a second voice in his
head, someone shouting about honor.
He shook his head. Nope, no one in his head but him. No more
manipulations. No more secrets. Helios was free for the first
time in years. And he loved it.
“Your time will come, Jarvan!” Helios kept running, never
looking back.
Grand Master Jarvan watched the young Jedi flee, but did not
follow, Instead, he lit a Death stick and Ordered the temple
guards to pursue him.
*
Due to the recent attacks by the Corsair Brotherhood and the
looming threat of the True Sith, there was little to no
opposition to prevent Helios from escaping. He now sat in the
cockpit of a single fighter his plotting a course.
The True Sith’s most recent activity suggested that several
systems were now under their direct control in the Unknown
Regions. Wild, untamed, and full of mystery, even the Imperial
Legion’s exploration division knew much about this savage land.
Helios ran it through his mind. He had information that the True
Sith wanted. But who to give it to? There wasn’t a lot known
about the various tribes.
There were rumors of a tribe full of monsters and creatures that
could swallow entire worlds in days. The power sounded tempting,
but something in the back of his mind suggested these guys
weren’t the ones trust. Neither were the ones rumored to raise
the dead. There were some corporations suspected of siding with
the True Sith, but none near the Unknown Regions.
Then it occurred to him. Almost a year ago, Sekhmet G’Kar had
been approached by the True Sith’s very own leader, the True
Emperor Anubis D’Sade. Surely, Helios route should start there.
If Anubis saw value in Helios, he’d be on the rise in no time.
Yes, then. That meant only one place to go.
The Hellfire Tribe. They were the most visible faces among the
True Sith.
This was the right choice for him. This was the proper path. No
longer would Helios be doomed to be in the shadow of Erenim. No
longer would he have to bow and scape to those undeserving. He
would serve a real emperor now, not the distant and cold
Skorrda.
With this info, the True Sith would welcome him with open arms.
It’d be something truly worth his time.
Helios looked at the data storage device laying on the dash of
his ship. His mind then turned to how lucky he was to escape not
only the surface of the planet but Grand Master Jarvan himself.
That had to prove the Force was on his side all it had cost him
was Ashbringer. His now ruined saber sat of the dash next to the
data chip.[left][/left]
Helios finally finished plotting his course and the trip would
take close to 16 hours. He put the ship on auto pilot and
reclined his seat to get some rest. The ship would sound an
alarm if anything needed his attention.
