“Well that was interesting,” Meleana said as they walked through the lower levels of the palace.
“It certainly was. Were you actually going to kiss him?”
“Only to prove your innocence,” She said casually.
“You are unbelievable.”
She glanced back at him playfully, “Are you mad?”
“No. You are actually unbelievable. How many people would think the best way to get out of hot water with a Council member for kissing another Jedi would be to offer to make out with that Council member? I'm just glad he only caught us kissing.”
Meleana snickered, “communicating through the force of your penis in my vagina?”
“You grew up in the Jedi temple. Where did you learn to be so crass?” Obi-Wan asked shaking his head.
Meleana shrugged, “The streets, I guess.”
She stopped when they entered the next room. It was a game room by the looks of it. There were tables set up for different recreational activities. This had to have been a more recent addition to the house. Obi-Wan could hardly imagine a dark lord of the Sith having a game room.
“Have you ever played this one before?” Meleana asked walking up to one of the tables.
She started looking around for the equipment. She wandered to the other side of the room, allegedly because there was a game piece she needed. She stopped and attacked the air, which Obi-Wan assumed meant she'd found another ghost. When they made it back to Coruscant he was going to need to be sure she had some kind of counseling.
“That feels amazing!” She said. She ran over and jumped on him with her arms around his shoulders and his legs around his waist.
He quickly moved to grab her so she wouldn't slip, “Do you have something to tell me?” Obi-Wan asked.
“No. I'm just all hopped up on ghost energy,” Meleana kissed him, “Your face is all scratchy.” She rubbed her hand over his stubble covered cheek.
He furrowed his brow, “So is yours.”
Meleana glared and kissed him again before hopping off of him, “Let's keep going.”
Now that she had a weapon Meleana felt alive again. She had hope she could win the fight. Obi-Wan tailed her at a cautious distance as she raced from one room to another anxiously seeking another rush of energy.“What are you doing?” He finally puffed out of breath when they had reached a dead end in one of the lower floors cavernous hallways.
“They're gone!” She snapped pulling at her hair. She needed a pool of evil souls that weren't being controlled by the person she needed to kill.
“We should go check on the others,” Obi-Wan was casting a hesitant gaze around the hall as though he expected to see something.
Meleana let out a sigh of resignation as they started back towards the library. She mentally cursed the Sith, knowing she was up to something. The darkside overwhelmed their senses. For all they knew their friends were upstairs being tortured by a swarm of the undead. Though she at least felt she had a fighting chance, it still seemed unlikely that this would end in anything but her death. She wasn't quite ready to lay down and accept that possibility. They continued down the halls, back towards the nearest stairway.
“She's waiting for you,” Master Tori's spirit appeared at the head of the staircase.
“Fantastic,” Meleana said as they climbed.
“What is?” Obi-Wan asked.
“Where is everyone?” Meleana asked. The spirit fell in line with their steps as they passed her.
“Upstairs with your friends. We're all trapped here. The Sith seems to want them close. She's waiting to ambush you.”
“So much for having until sundown,” Meleana scoffed, “Can you do anything to them?” Meleana asked, wondering if she'd be able to sneak past the Sith to get to her spectral companions.
“Oh, you're not talking to me...” Obi-Wan sounded resigned to the madness going on around him.
“Not that I'm aware of. I'm sorry to say this, but I can't imagine this is going to end well for you. Anything you do will only enrage her. If you go peacefully she may at least keep a cool enough head to spare your friends.”
“With an attitude like that I can't imagine why your life ended prematurely,” Meleana said with an eye roll.
“Now that's charming,” Obi-Wan snapped, “I certainly hope you aren't speaking to a Jedi Master like that.”
Tori eyed Obi-Wan, “You should listen to him.”
“You should help me!”
“I am helping you. I came to warn you. What you do with that warning is up to you.”
Master Tori disappeared before Meleana could question her further, “The Sith is waiting for us upstairs. I guess she changed her mind about waiting until tomorrow night.”
“Wonderful.”
They climbed the remaining stairs in silence and paused before they reached their floor. Obi-Wan had a somber look on his face. Meleana grabbed him by the collar and kissed him.
“By the end of this we're going to be tied for Sith kills. We'll have to find that second one to even up the count,” Meleana said with a wink.
“What's your plan?” He asked. He didn't share her light tone.
“You're not going to like it,” Meleana gave him another long deep kiss, and tried not to think of it as the last one, before charging through the door.
She used the Force to boost her speed as she flew through the wide hall towards the library door. She pushed the door inwards with the Force and it flew open. She felt the Sith coming up behind her, then heard a thud as Obi-Wan threw her attacker back with the force. Inside the library was crammed with so many spirits Meleana couldn't make out her friends. She grabbed one in each hand and pulled the energy from them.
Master Windu blew by her to join Obi-Wan in the hall. She grabbed another couple of spirits and searched for her friends. Still unable to find them she shouted over what seemed like quite a commotion to her, but was likely a quiet room to the others.
“Red, get them out of here,” she'd just gotten the words out when Obi-Wan went flying through the crowd.
The spirits dispersed as his body flew through them. The first of the long shelves he collided with collapsed, the next stopped him. Meleana ignored him and continued grabbing onto the spirits closest to her. They were beginning to scramble, more than half of them had already dispersed in the confusion. It wouldn't be long before their Master was no longer preoccupied by Master Windu. Meleana felt her body humming with energy. The Dark side no longer clouded her senses. She let the remaining spirits disperse without trying to hinder them. She focused on the Sith's energy in the hall and pulled both hands towards her body. Wood and plaster sprayed the room as the Sith burst through the wall. She jerked the body into the far side of the room. Shelves toppled and splintered as the reanimated corpse was battered against them. Meleana halted the Sith when she had reached the exterior wall and held her there.
“I'm almost impressed,” The Sith's voice was gravely, not much remained of Master Tori's windpipes, “Go on Jedi, kill me. Flick your wrist. Snap my neck.”
Meleana hesitated and the Sith pushed back with enough energy to send them all flying. She knew as she flew through shelves that her body should be feeling pain. She knew when she eventually stopped moving she would be injured, but she felt nothing. Her whole body tingled, like a limb that had fallen asleep. She used the force to stop her momentum and righted herself. She met a wave of the force from the Sith with her own, only half aware of the sound of her comrades finally toppling their last shelf.
“I'd snap their necks and put an end to this. If I wasn't having so much fun,” The Sith croaked with a gruesome grin. She drew both her stolen lightsabers as Obi-Wan and Mace clambered to their feet.
The Sith rushed Meleana who stood unarmed waiting for her to approach. Meleana didn't flinch. It only took a second for her to be surrounded with bodies and lightsabers. The Jedi and the Sith were now a blur of light and heat around her. Meleana kept her eyes on the desiccated arm attached to her lightsaber. When the Jedi were on either side of her she reached out at the advancing enemy. It didn't take much strength for her to pry the arm off lightsaber and all. The Sith's response was not what Meleana had expected. She didn't recoil in pain. She lashed out in anger. The room hummed with energy. Meleana found herself falling alongside her companions. They'd been tossed from the floor... no Meleana realized as the shelves fell with them in a pile of debris. The Sith had blown out the floor. They landed along with wood and stone in a pile on the next floor. The Sith was above them on what remained of the upper floor. Meleana could feel something happening through the force. Something other than the twister of debris that was beginning to turn around them.
She felt her body being yanked upwards, back into the library. She was followed by a wall of debris which settled in to place behind her. She clutched Obi-Wan's lightsaber tightly as she took in what had just happened. She could feel the tickle of blood flowing from wounds all over her body, but she didn't feel the pain of them. Not yet anyway. The floor she was standing on, while not pretty, was solid. The broken walls had also been pieced back together. Until she made another opening she would be trapped with Darth Tormentia. And it was Darth Tormentia who stood before her. She was taller than Meleana had expected and rail thin. It was hard to believe someone who appeared so delicate could be so powerful. Her long blonde hair cascaded down the tight black cat suit the Sith had former for herself. Her impossibly pale skin seemed to glow and made her black eyes even more unsettling.
“I thought I'd enjoy the pleasure of my own form once more before taking yours. I am going to miss myself. What size are you?” The Sith shook her head, “I doubt any of my old clothes will fit.... you're a bit bigger in the hips than I'd have liked, but then beggars can't be choosers. You would be amazed how hard it is to find a compatible body donor. I am so looking forward to wearing a skin that won't fall apart on me,” She smiled a big happy smile, “You have no idea how long I have waited for this.”
“You are burning up quite a bit of energy,” Meleana said, genuinely impressed by the Sith's abilities.
“I can't sustain it forever, if you're wondering,” Her voice was the one Meleana had heard in her head. Somehow that was more chilling than the croaking the Sith had done before shedding her physical form. Master Tori's lightsaber was still in her clenched fist. “But it won't take forever to finish you.”
Meleana tested the floor beneath her with the force and was hit with a wave of dark energy like she'd never felt before. If Obi-Wan and Mace were going to make it back they would have to go the long way.
“What exactly are you hoping to achieve?” The Sith asked pacing slowly around Meleana, “You're best case scenario is to make it out of here and spend the rest of your life draining others to sustain yourself. Let me tell you, it's no fun. Even for someone with my loose morals.”
“Then neither one of us will live through this,” Meleana managed to sound confident despite the growing feeling of dread in the pit of her stomach.
“You should have taken the easy way out,” Alandra raised her hand as she spoke and a storm of force lightning began to form behind her.
All at once the wall of force lightening came at Meleana. Her lightsaber would be useless against it. Meleana reacted without thinking. She raised her free hand and attempted to absorb the wall of energy coming towards her. The lightening pooled in her hand and sent a jolt of electricity up her arm. She winced and pushed the energy back towards the Sith. She easily dodged the hastily thrown shot. It hit the wall behind her, igniting everything it touched.
Alandra launched herself towards Meleana. Their blades clashed in a flurry of motion. The Sith was trying to push Meleana back towards the fire which was consuming the room. Meleana's boost in power may have made her feel invincible, but she doubted very much that she would be able to keep fighting if the smoke got much thicker. She was vaguely aware of a commotion on the other side of the door. Meleana swung high while Alandra was recovering from a hard block. She stuck her in the arm. To Meleana's horror nothing happened. Behind her the door gave way. The crash and shock of fighting an invincible opponent were enough to distract Meleana long enough for Alandra to catch her off guard. Though Meleana raised her lightsaber to defend herself she wasn't fast enough. She deflected the blade, but not enough, it seared into her shoulder as she pushed it away. She screamed and dropped to her knees. Obi-Wan and Mace rushed to her defense and stopped the Sith before she could land another hit on Meleana. As the two Jedi pushed the Sith back Meleana took in the scene around her.
The room was an inferno. The smoke was so thick it would soon be impossible to breath. Her fellow Jedi were fighting a losing battle. The Sith was invincible. The smoke wouldn't kill her. Their blades wouldn't kill her. Meleana may still be able to absorb her, the way she had done with the other spirits, but her energy was draining. She looked down at herself. Her tunic was stained with blood. She looked up at the large window opposite her and the clear skies being illuminated by the rising sun. If she still had the power she might be able to get through the Sith's barricade. Alandra's energy was stretched thin and she was distracted. If she jumped the Sith would follow her. If she could get out Obi-Wan and Master Windu would be safe. She looked at the blur of green blue and purple a few paces away from her. As she watched Obi-Wan was force pushed into the flames. Meleana reached out a hand to stop him.
Her eyes met his for a brief moment. Her resignation must have shown on her face because she could hear him shouting at her as she rushed the Sith. Her own scream drowned out his as she pushed on towards the window at full speed with Tormentia in tow. She focused every ounce of power she had on the barrier between her and the outside world. As she hit the glass she felt herself suspended for a moment. She wanted to try to absorb the Sith, but if she failed she wouldn't get a second chance. She'd already committed to taking her down the hard way. She heard the piercing sound of glass shattering around her as Tormentia's barrier gave way. She had thrown herself impossibly hard at the window. She flew further out than she did down. It was all over in a few seconds but it felt like an eternity. Meleana landed hard without the force to cushion her and without the Sith in her arms to break her fall. She hadn't had time to regroup after expending so much energy breaking the Sith's wall.
Meleana couldn't breathe. She tried, but she couldn't take a breath. She tried to calm herself. She listened to the sound of the water in the stream nearby as she pulled the tiniest breath through her nose. The air here smelled like flowers. The breath she had taken gave her just enough air to cough. Blood filled her mouth. She could here heavy footfalls racing towards her. Maybe Obi-Wan would get there in time. Meleana didn't have time to think of what he would get there in time for. Something dark and terrible closed in around her. She could no longer hear the stream, smell the flowers, or taste blood. The blue sky faded last.
