[ Chapter 14 ]

I am dead. Whether caused by my self-mutilation, or got crashed hyperjumping into random locations. Nevertheless, I had nothing to regret. I even began to see flashbacks of my entire life, I never believed in such thing, until now…

And then, I saw something different, so many strange memories mixed with mine, such as seeing myself killed a Bith(a kind of alien species) in a crumbling cave, then my vision suddenly changed into facing a orange hair boy, and then finally, found myself appeared to be the species of Muun, wearing some sort of mask breather, struggling on the floor, tortured by Force lightning which unleashed from the insidious dark figure behind. Seeing it happening, also feeling the same suffering pain as the tragic character, pain not just from physical, but the heart breaking betrayal from a trusted friend……

“So…This is how you died?......Hego?” I looked back, seeing the Muun as a crimson glowing spirit form, wielding an lightsaber toward me. Although the blade seems to be unreal, I realised it could still cause the final destruction of my soul.

“…You had failed me for the Last TIME!!!” Said Plagueis. “Funny, is it not? Mortals assumed to believe that spirits can never be destroyed…Well, they never died before.”

“And then what? What could you possibly achieve in this status?” I asked.

“By conquering…Death, and extend my life indefinitely.” Plagueis answered, and raised his lightsaber. “And YOU…will be the LAST THING to get in my way.”

“Then you will fail.” I simply replied. “Strike me down if you want! But I WON’T be the Last Thing to get in your Way!”

“Pffft…” Plagueis smerks. “…if you meant the damaged of your corpse, all I simply need is to find another replacement, a mere minor setback won’t stop my path to Victory…”

“Even if you succeed returning to the living realm, what are you going to do then?” I furtherly questioned.

“Foolish question.” Plagueis grinned, “I will do what I always meant to do, to destroy the Jedi Order, extinguish any last singular spark of the light from the Galaxy! Until I could warp time and space, twisting the galaxy to my own design!”

“You know? You sound just like someone that I heard before…” I began to remembering the histories and telltales I heard from master Skywalker, “…the Emperor, what’s he called…Palpatine, Yes, your apprentice that you said. I’ve heard the fact how he create his Empire by causing the downfall of both the Old Republic and the Jedi Order at that time…”

For a second, Plagueis seems to be astonished.

“…Really? Oh…yes…so I’ve heard…” Plagueis murmured, recalling what he heard during his possession. “…he’s always ambitious, eagered to live an extraordinary life, strong and proud, just like a true Sith…”
“And like a true Sith, he killed You to achieved his goal!” I spoke up as I put pieces together by seeing his memories.

“SO WHAT?! This Is ALWAYS the way of the SITH!” Plagueis yelled, wielding the lightsaber to threaten me, “What do you expect from me? Disappointed? You think you found my Weakness? We are the SITH! Not like any other ordinary low life, We, have no Weakness, because We do not fear Betrayal, that made us Stronger than Any Of You, JEDI!!!”

“Yet in the end, your apprentice still failed. He died, and the Empire went down with him, as the Jedi risen once again…”

“And as I said it before, it’s merely a Minor Setback…” Plagueis still showing no regards. “What point are you trying to make? You think this is the end? No…Unlike you weaklings, we do not surrender to the Force just to become some petty servant, just as I will never surrender to DEATH itself! We achieve success not by summoning help to the Force, but from taking control of it and generating the power from within! We, made the Force answer to our will, eventually, We Shall Prevail!”

“NO YOU WON’T!!!” I shouted and stood up, “I’ve looked in your memories, you viewed the Jedis were weak as they stick too much to their old ways rejecting the Darkside, while you used it as your greatest strength, evolved and adapted, became more powerful then the Jedi! That, may be true! But no matter how much you changed, you never Changed your Ways! Just like Jedi rejected the Darkside, You, rejected the Light! You’ll always fail just as the Jedi did, the war will never end, and You will Never WIN Until accepting both Dark and Light-”

“LIIIGHHHTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!” Plagueis suddenly raged like thunder that shocked me. “DO YOU REALLY THINK TO KNOW LIGHT?!?!?!!! TO KNOW ASHLA?!?!?!?!!”

For the moment I was terrified, frightened and speechless, staring at Plagueis’s yellow eyes slowly turning cold and sharp as he calmed down.

“Ashla…is but a perversion, a mere image we imagined. It seems shine and bright from the outside, yet always blinded to most that failed to see how empty and hollowed of the inside. Just like dreams and ideals, Eventually all turned to be LIES.” he went on, “Only the Darkside represent the Truth, for the dark has always preceded the light. And the only Truth is Emotion, and Passion, which you Jedis always denied! We embrace the spectrum of emotions, from the heights of transcendent joy to the depths of hatred and despair, by facing our Fear, We earsed it and became Fearless. That’s why We Sith are ALWAYS more powerful than you Jedi, because we are Not Afraid to Feel!!!”

I took a moment of thinking, and then looked up. “…How about, Kindness and Compassion?”

“Have you not learned ANYTHING All I Just SAID?!” Plagueis groaned as the whole realm shaked, “Those are all LIES!!! The talkings of Selflessness and Peace, Justice and Order, all but mere illusions create by foolish beings who convince themselves to chase what they could never reach! Unlike the Rakata, the ancient Builders, did they ever pronounce judgment on their own works? No… they moved planets, organized star systems, conjured darkside devices like the Star Forge as they saw fit. If millions died in the process, then so be it. This is the Truth that you all failed to understand, the truth that lives of most beings are of small consequence. You Jedis are too busy saving insignificant lives and striving to keep the powers of the Force in balance that all of you have lost sight of the fact that sentient life is meant to evolve, not simply languish in contented stasis! Your false belief in the Power of the Light is but a sad devotion that locked you away from the full potential of True Power! Only the total Obliteration of the Light, shall Free ALL Beings from this fantasized cage, and lead us to the Ultimate Control of Our Own Destiny!”

“No…NO……” I murmured as the more I heard.

“No~? What? You find it hard to believe? HEH! I knew you weak-minded Jedi would never comprehend the Truth…”

“No…I was meant… that you were right…” I replied, felt like realising something, I looked at Plagueis in a different way. “……but not quite.”

“What do you mean by That?!” Plagueis roared, as he could see something through my eyes, and began to feel uncomfortable. “And WHY are you looking me Like THAT?!”

“So…this is what you are? The way of the Darkside? The illness…that as a True Sith would never want to be Cured?” I looked in the Sith spirit, suddenly I couldn’t recognized what once represent the symbol of Hatred and Domination that strike fear to all hearts. Suddenly, what I see is but a tortured, broken shadow of pieces, twisted so much that I found out to be Empty, and Hollowed, there is Nothing to understand. And then I finally realised, the meaning to hate, to blame, or to fear, became no more. All what had left, were only the feelings of sadness, and pain……

“…YOU…DARE…PITY ME?!” Seems to realised what I felt, Plagueis turned absolute outraged. “How, Dare, YOU, LOOKING ME THAT WAY!!!STOP THIS OR I’LL-”

“What?! DESTROY~ Me?” I laughed, somehow began to know what to do, I opened my arms and walked toward him. “You said you are not afraid to feel... and What Now? Did my Pity really scared you so much?”

Plagueis firmly raised his lightsaber. “If you think it is wise to Anger me, then You are making a Grave Mistake-”

“Anger? Or Afraid?!” I spoke up, “You think you’re so Fearless, but that’s Exactly where you’re So Wrong!”

“YOU ASSUMED YOURSELF FEARLESS?!”

“No. On the contrary,” I replied, remembered many things of my past. “I feared my lightsaber will hurt me and the others, feared to lose close ones, became alone and unnoticed. I feared more than you do, maybe even more than I realised. Perhapes my greatest fear, is have Nothing to fear, without fear means nothing to care or to know myself. I admit I’ll always terrified facing fear, but I’ll faced it till the end, Not just Erased it.”
Plagueis grinned. “You speak the impossible, yet I sensed your lack of confidence...you’re more Pitiful than I presumed!”

“At least I’m not afraid of others pity, got used to it anyways…” I smiled, recalled the hard life with my foster father Jar Jar, it was his pity that made me survived, and by others I continued lived through, it became my life story overall.

“SILENCE!!!!!” Plagueis shouted, as the world turned into the blackest oblivion, his lightsaber became more crimson like thristing for souls. “CLEARLY, You’ve learned NOTHING from My Teachings. I’ve allowed your Pointless Struggle Longer Than Enough!!!”

“I’m not the one who is struggling, and in fact, I learned a lot from you.” I could feel the darkness swallowing me, as my spirit form slowly broke into particles and became a part of Plagueis, I knew this is the ending game. “Although, I still find no answer to perfectly solve all the conflicts in the galaxies, perhapes, there may never be one at all. But I’ll rather died in believing the good and right, than to lived through in just doing the easy and wrong.”

“ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE!!! I AM GOING TO END THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!!!!” Plagueis raised his lightsaber, prepared to make the final strike!

“You’ve taught me so much, this time let me return the favor…” I furtherly stepped forward. This, is my final moment. “…You always believed to face the Darkside is to face your Fear, then I’ll tell you this, that from a certain point of view, your true Darkside, will always be the LIGHT!!!”

I spoke out my final words as the crimson blade slashed through me, I experienced the one last understanding in my mind. It was Pain, yet not just from mine, but also Plagueis’s, and countless of lives crying and mourning sounded through out the universe, yet soon silenced in the dark. This is where I realised, darkness made us all feel desprate, helpless, and turned to hatred itself. If we only knew to open our hearts, learn to feel as others, learn to accept differences instead of annihilate it, we’ll feel alone no more, find Peace and Balance, not from outside worlds, but inside ourselves. This, is the true power, not from Hatred, but from the Pains of Compassion.

Like a fading light, witnessing the final moment as my final piece of spark went perished, I peacefully closed my eyes, welcoming to consumed by the eternal black as my last sight, only surprised to found out it was extremely bright-
