Shock-wave: The Reunification of Malachor V

[Thomas Shan Harth]

It was thought to have been destroyed but the critics were all wrong Malachor V existed again and it was some time centuries a millenia but someone did find it again and it was by Thomas Shan Dray he found it the planet was looking a bit off but the force was strong here as he got onto the planet itself he could see that it rebuilt itself from the parts of asteroids it must have took some time he feels the force real strong here and he decides to take a look in the caverns that are around as he gets deeper and deeper into the caverns he notices a pool of energy he wonders if this is the pool of the force he concentrate and notices he is light headed and falls to his knees but after a few moments he doesn't really feel any better until he fires a shot with his blaster which nearly misses the side of the cavern and kills a little bug on the rock-face,he decides to perhaps use this energy to create light in this cavern so it isn't so dark but as he does do this is creates a shock-wave which he feels through the force and it sends him to the ground in pain what has he done he struggles to his feet and then struggles to get out of the cavern wit each breathe of air the pain is intense as he finally struggles out of the cavern and back on the surface his breathing returns to normal but the intense pain is still very hard on him and he decides to head to his shuttle to give a report to his command who is on the Spirit of Darkness

"commander Ive made it this is truly Malachor V it has the pool of some energy it could be the force I'm not sure it doesn't seem that powerful"

Thomas then looks at his panel then looks at the air quality and notices he will have to go into his shuttle and prepare a new oxygen tank once having a new oxygen tank he leaves the shuttle just as he notices three other shuttles coming down and landing right next to him he wonders what this could be about as he places the tank on his back and the mask over his face he notices it his troopers from the Spirit of Darkness and a commander walking over to him he is quite perplexed

'Sir we brought a set of technicians who know the knowledge of what Malachor V was they have the dat and the History if you are correct you might have found the very planet that houses the core'

"the core" Thomas replies still slightly puzzled as to why his officers are even down here with him but he likes the company perhaps they will guard him against the things he has sensed here the very darkness

'yes Sir,the core at one time in the past housed the Force and was able to grow a simple padawan into a grand Jedi or Sith Master depending on the force user mind and train of thought but that was and this is now.tell me Sir did this energy seem powerful to you'

"well it did but i didn't feel like it was any-powerful like i mean i didn't gain any strength from it but i did feel more confident"

'well lead the way Sir and we will follow you'

Thomas leads them down through the first set of caverns and even if he has found Malachor V it isn't the same he is quite sure as they work themselves down and through the caverns he comes to the pool which has two claw shaped horns carved from solid stone of the cavern he believes and a silver disk in the middle which he seems its odd he then feels a tap on his shoulder and stop his journey he clicks on his comm-link

"OK well this what i found here commander this looks like it was i think the old academy here but theirs nothing but a few ruins and this silver disk"

'alright well Sir we will check it out but my officers have their weapons armed they have reported of some beasts around here that they were able to not entirely destroy but weaken them somewhat and from a gather we are about twelve miles beneath the surface so be careful your tank i see has enough air for a few more hours we will go up together just be careful'

"i will and thanks"

Thomas goes to the disk and steps on it the disk changes color somewhat he looks down and then looks at his technicians who are scouring the area looking for things he steps a bit further up and the disk changes to a deep blue and he feels dizzy as like he is light as a feather he steps off and heads back onto the solid ground the disk he notices changes back to Silver he doesn't like this he feels angry and steps on the disk once again he feels hatred and power and then he looks to his guards they are here to steal what he found he builds strength and then he has a pain in his head and he crawls to the ground and turns around the disk turns back to silver he looks to his guards to his officers whom seem to be out of phase with him he shakes his head and then looks down at the marking on the disk something he hasn't seen before like they were not their at all the markings read

:for one to steps on here he or she must come here with a clean slate the force is their alley so shall this disk will show them the true nature of the force:

Thomas looks at the floor once again the markings are gone and he looks at his dial for his oxygen he notice he almost out he notices his officers and his commander waving to-wards him their is always tomorrow but will this place be here or will it change he looks at his commander and then remembers the words that he saw he removes the oxygen tank from his face from his body he takes in the gas as it burns in his throat he steps on the disk once again as he isn't really angry and he really isn't calm he is their and he has his hands to his sides the disk glows a bright light and the force or the energy consumes him entirely he hears nothing he only sees a white glow

'Sir,no you will be killed get out of there...........!'
'no commander he is lost'
'no he cant be.... track him down'
'as you wish'
'we cant go in their sir we don't know what that energy is it could kill us'
' i don't care alright I'm going in myself'

Garm Rahl steps fourth to the disk but is immediately sent a few back as its like an energy shield entirely around the disk he looks to his officers and then shakes his head

'THOMAS'
'sir what should we do'
'get our medical teams down here and set up a base camp for now we wait and see that is all we can do'

[Thomas Shan Harth]

Thomas realizes he isn't in a dream this is actually happening to him he looks out but the light is so bright he closes his eyes and doesn't trust what he sees until he feels a tap on his shoulder and he is on in the middle and he notices the five or six horns of stone around him he looks over and doesn't see his officers he doesn't see anything its dark and gloomy where he is he kneels and allows the force to pass through him like the wind he can feel the force flow through him and he then notices mirror images figures stepping fourth from all over he looks around and tries to speak but cant is this really happening-is he really here these images are ghosts he notices they walk up to him then jump up and through him he sways back and fourth but something is different wit each ghost that walks through eh can hear them speaking to him in his mind telling him knowledge and he understands it he continues to feel calm at peace with himself and it continues as it is the knowledge of the past present and something else.

'Sir we have figured our that its a shaft and this energy is all around Thomas Shan,but we still haven't figured out a way to get him out of their'
'Keep working there has to be a way'
Alright Sir'

Garm is worried here it has been only ten minutes but ten minutes is long here without oxygen for all he knows Thomas is dead the light of energy has killed him and his owner who paid him is gone but he cant think like that with the main camp up and running here on the planet they have oxygen waiting and ready for when or if they find Thomas they will have the medical team ready to heal him or resuscitate him.

[Thomas Shan Harth]

while in the glow Thomas sees many force walking ghosts pass through him some passing on their knowledge others just giving him the confidence he needs to see what he must do when this ends he cant really take it all in but somehow he is and at some points its really painful and at last he has that funny feeling in his head as he is really dizzy the last thing he sees is a shining light that goes right through his eyes and he finally collapses on the ground his final breathe of air is the fact he notices the glow is slowing going away and the disk is glowing a dim white glow he then notices his guards his officers who are around and he finally goes under.

'Sir look their he is'

Garm turns around and notices Thomas laying on the disk he had been missing for over six hours but he finally shows up and he waves over the medical teams 'Get him into a stasis chamber and take him back up to the Spirit of Darkness,Capt. secure this position I'll be back when i know Thomas is OK'
'understood Sir'

The medical team takes Thomas from the ground from the disk and places him in a stasis chamber where by they place on an oxygen tank to his face and mouth and carry him out of the caverns Garm follows slowly he wonders will Thomas survive this he better he has alot of questions to ask him about what he actually saw because in his eyes he viewed him disappear before his very eyes.

As they get the Chamber into the main shuttle and as Garm walks up the ramp closing behind him he takes a look back at what has happened as the shuttle lifts off and then flies through the thick stormy of Malachor V it struggles to get back through and into the atmosphere but it does it flies directly to and then into the side hanger of the Spirit of Darkness their the ramp lowers fast and a team is waiting for this one moment they take the chamber and head directly for the Infirmary when they get their they go through a sealed door with 100% oxygen Garm cannot follow he is although showered and rinsed from the toxins in his body as he watches the Medical team work on his owner and friend Thomas Shan he watches them work on him and notices they are working fast the surgeon looks back at Garm and nods his head Garm smiles its a relief he is somehow alive he is then lay-ed back and needs his rest.

Malachor V
In Orbit
On-board:Spirit of Darkness

Thomas awakes from what seems like he was in a dream but he feel stronger so its wasn't a dream he looks around and notices that he is on the Spirit of Darkness and then he sees his doctors and then Garm Rahl looking at him from another room he breathes in the air that is in two tubes in his nose as he breathe the air and realizes but he does feel somewhat stronger although his head hurts he can feel the knowledge of Malachor V of thousands of voices within his head its hard for him to think at all clearly and he passes out and falls asleep and while in a deep sleep his has a deep dream and sees those ghosts but their not ghosts now their living and breathing and looking at him and talking to-wards him but he cant hear them speak he can however hear their thoughts which really seems odd.

[Thomas Shan Harth]

Thomas wakes up suddenly after nearly being asleep for a week it seemed like he was only down for a while it didn't seem that long but all he hears is the alarm of someone being near his planet or at his ship he doesn't know exactly what the hell is going on he jumps from his bed and places on his uniform which consists of a black long tunic pants boots and then finally his black uniform jacket with his cloak also attached to it he still has a headache but he feels fine he notices on the side of the table is his belt he waves his hand forward and it comes to him his light-saber attached as he puts his belt on then steps out of the Infirmary and grabs a guard he looks really puzzled the guard does

'sir shouldn't you be in bed'

"damn it tell me who is here"

'no one sir its just two ships have landed on your planet'

"my planet who"

'i don't know sir you will have to check that with Garm Rahl,i must go i things to do'

the guards relinquishes Thomas's hold on him and then leaves Thomas really has no one on Malachor and no idea of what is happening he runs pretty frocking fast and then makes it to the bridge he steps on it and their he notices Garm giving out order like he own the place he watches the screen on the side and sees the ship on replay he knows this ship it belonged to a Gray Master Jinta Jidan he believes but the other ship is a mystery he doesn't know it

"Garm what are u doing about those two ships on Malachor V"

Garm turns around and sees who that remark is from and then kneels he doesn't want to start a fight here he then rises up and places his hands behind his back

'well Sir i will be sending a team down just as soon as they are ready'

Thomas stares at him but he has been out of the loop in sometime he just wonders what the frock has happened while he was out he looks around and notices the ion trail of the second ship is New Republic he can also sense the force more clearly then before and knows whomever is down on his world will die by his hand then he sees something a message on his comm-link he presses it and then realizes that its a message from Jinta Jidan hismelf about a plan,a plan to do what he has forgotten he takes the node to Garm Rahl and he takes it from his hand 'this message is important sir i will take care of it for you in the mean time head back to the imfirmary you dont look well' thomas nods his head the man was right he is shaking and it isnt feeling the greatest and yet he cant keep the visions popping into his head vision of a duel taking place and him helpin someone perhaps its Jinta Jidan.

He heads out of the area away from the bridge and heads back to the Infirmary but he doesnt make it their his head is pounding he has a waking dream a vision that knocks him to the floor he grabs his head and sees the ghosts in his mind and now infront of him the force surrounds him his very core he is trapped until he finds out exactly what is going on.
