Aware of one's self

[Foxfire]

Darkened thoughts, vile emotions, primal cravings, these thoughts had came and gone for one Halc Greimer gray Jedi. They had neither held any power over him yet bit by bit the force healing of one Jedi healer Mal Konti started to have an effect upon the little aleen. For the past week Halc had walked the streets in a dream like state wandering about with out purpose and direction as his mind took in the fractured memories of the past.

The first thought that hit him the hardest was that he was no longer a Jedi nor trusted by them either just pitied by those who found him. The realization of the darkness with in him and the twisted minds that were constantly echoing in his mind drove him from the temple into the lower levels of Coruscant. Sadness epically flood over his being washing every being that came near to him. Many felt either the sadness or the fear exuding from the little being.

The second thought was for his former master. How could he have failed her so in not protecting her giving her that warning when he felt it so long ago. Thoughts ate at him like garbage beetles, taring every good thought into nothingness. Getting to such a point he would throw himself from the nearest walk-way to the bottomless planet city only to have the twisted wills save themselves.

So deep did he go that no visible light was seen and the darkness was all encompassing. What was more was what Halc could not feel from the time he had entered the temple, the darkness of the core levels of the planet. The very depths of the planet had a darkness like that of the sith. Here evil walked like any being and hunted those who were either lost or to stupid to know better. Yet Halc did not care when evil came near to him either the fear that he felt would break them or he would dispatch them with either the force scream or the saber that he wore upon his hip.

Finding a smallish set of rooms with only one entrance did he finally settle. Their his mind continued to rail against him. Force fear flood this small blocked area and force screams echoed the blackened hallways. Here the three spoke to each other asking why they had came to a place with out thinking it through or talking it out with Mal Konti.

Why did we leave are you scared of what you did?

There is no good tasting food down here you know.

In a explosion of force rage-SHUT the -=ll up, the both of you. We can't think with your sweet speech. As for the food that was the food of those beings that failed us all. They have not come to stop us from leaving. Do they care for us they cared not for Mr. Konti so why day care for little us.

The force wafted back to him swelling again into another force screaming fit. It had been a long time since Halc had been like this. Even the Dark Jedi doctor did not get to see this level of a reaction from him. A cold quietness settled in as his body tired from the blast. The mind twisted by darkness and body force to enjoy fear and despair was a machine in that it was rebuilding the raw power to have another go in a few minutes.

The ranting aleena went on this way for hours till his body gave out and a deathly quiet fell upon the level. As he rested and the force made it's way back to him so did other things things that were going to drive him back to the surface. The local mob gang was working back through the housing level, mugging and robbing and doing anything they saw fit to do. When came to the emptied housing block they saw a way of getting back at the Jedi who often came down here to interfere with their business.

Seven being in total of which were three humans. Of course they were the first to go inside followed by a mixture of other races. What they were really did not matter for when the aleena awoke his twisted mind saw what they were wanting to do to him. While pouring out force fear Halc let loose a force scream that made the beings start to bleed from every pore. Most were not even able to move do to the over whelming fear locking them in place. A very large and hairy being was the only one to reach the door, yet the door was held fast as he was cut down by Halc's master's light saber. Halc had to use both hands and force jumped with a heavy slash to down the being. Slicing it and the door in two was what brought Halc back to the reality and once more questioning why he was doing this.

Moving over the bloody bodies the twisted voices mocked him and begged him to once again leave this place to find a place truly calm and fitting to one like himself. Back to the surface he went encountering a few others of the same group that wanted revenge for their fallen comrades. The fights were bloody and noisy that was until they reached the secured levels where the Republic government had control. Now though the fighting was sparser but did attract the local police and caught on holo-vid.

Halc was nearly running out of steam again but he did manage to fortify himself in a food court call the 'Lower Lanes'. It was some what known for the more exotic foods and entertainment here too is where a government official was attacked by a unknown Twi'lek female. Rumors had it that she was an unwilling entertainer at the 'Lanes' gentleman's club called the 'Love Shack'. Hiding with in this club Halc held at bay ten more thugs of various species. He ate slowly and rested in between throwing chairs and other items of a hardened nature at them till his energy returned.

Zett had not had allot of real work for a while not sense the fail on Alderaan trying to catch Halc.
but if the news was right Halc had been caught and taken to the Temple of coarse that was just a rumor.
Zett was just walking in the under City of Coruscant and in one of the back Alys some thing caught his eye.
a bar by the name of 'Love Shack' had just had a big bar fight.
he went in to see that all inside were almost or were dead.
one cut in halve along with the door.
no Jedi would of done this,that was for shore "but i doubt a sith would have reason eather." he thought to himself
a insane Jedi now that almost fit,and Zett knew there was only one of those in the galaxy.

[Foxfire]

The situation was getting worse by the moment Republic officers in the front and mob enforcers to the rear. What was more the body count was climbing for Halc. Three more henchmen tried to bold down the alley way door only to be smashed by the force and cut down with a snap hiss of a light saber.

Never more scum. To the blackness of the grave with you.

One side of Halc's twisted mind screamed followed by Aleenian and other curses and fowl words indicating their sex and birth. The darkness was definitely seen by any being close enough to hear and watch on from a distance via optic scopes.

Next time bring us fudge or pie. We's are getting hungry again. Our killing you is not enough to satisfy our hunger.

Halc was breaking even further into his multi-persona's. His first mind set was trying to think of ways to escape from this nightmare. What could be done. Removal from the force, stripping of their mind to break what was repaired or simply running away and removing themselves from the verse till they died. None of the conclusions were liked by any of the three. A stale mate had come to pass they needed another to help break the problem at hand, yet who could it be.

You two want to live. I want peace. Yet the current problem is removing ourselves from this infernal planet. How are we going to go about this?

What of a Jedi they are always handy in removing things? Or is that to ironic?

Another assault tear gas containers came flying into the front of the business. Not turning Halc swiped them back outside.

What we need now is quiet order, and yes a Jedi might give us that time.

One of Halc's persona's set about hollering to the republic officers outside that they wanted a Jedi to deal with the problem. Once again though five tear gas containers flew into the front windows with three flash bangs. Returning the flash bangs Halc sent the tear gas to fly back through the club and exit through the rear doors to the alley. Coughing and sputtering could be heard from the few that remained in the alley.

[Adobi-Wan Kenobi]

He finally made his way to where Halc was and the body count along the way was not delightful.
Zett could tell Halc was not in a good mood, but it was why that Zett could not figure out.
he managed to get up under the little guys seance.
Hey there Halc you remember me?
after no response Zett asked another Question.
You OK? you want something, i don't know to eat maybe?
Zett remembered back on Alderaan it was food that he used to calm Halc down.

[Foxfire]

Halc felt the presonce before hearing the words of the intruder to his central calm. This one had been one of those that brought him closer to the Jedi temple before he skipped out on a transport that ended up as a ghost ship where a Togruta Jedi rediscovered him.

Turning to look at Zett....Yesssss. We remember yous. Yous are part of the reason why we are here today. Why we hurt, yesssss! Come closer and I shall have some to eat.... you.

With that word Halc lashed out at Zett blasting a force wave, though weak was still enough to move loose tables and chairs out and away from him.

The only thing you can do for we is make them all go away, or leave and take me with you. I.....Grabbing his head as another force induce head ache hits him. leave here. No not just here but this planet. WE.... no I want to go away to be left alone to heal on my own. NO healer can help with what I have wqrong with meeeeeeee.........wweeeee.

The hallway to the alley exploded and mob thugs tried to flood in but Halc blasted back with the broken shards of glass and metal. A storm of sharpened debrie slammed into them killing most of those who were in the front as for those near the back they were hurled back into the alley.

Near the same time the Republic police fired more tear gas and flash bangs into the room where they stood. Turning back to Zett Halc raised his left hand and swipped them to go flying back down the hallway and into the alley to explode. Raising he right hand to his temple he cringed as a nother powerful wave hit him. It was not fully the head aches but the connection to the force was what Halc was dealing with, he was feeling their pain and death. This was what was fueling his head aches, his lack to fully block the outside force cries. Knelling Halc began to cry. What was worse was that a force scream was building as well.

[Adobi-Wan Kenobi]

A burst of anger hit the Aleena as he burst toward Zett.
Ok, ok hold on little guy,
i...i can get you off Coruscant just calm down.
he hoped the little Aleena would calm down and let Zett get him off, this time unlike last time on Alderaan there would be no tricks.

Zett could not see how the little guy was this bad but he knew from experience and what he had studied with force sensitives it might get worse and he did not want a City to be here one and and gone the next Zett did not have a choice, once again a City owes him and knows nothing about it.

[Foxfire]

Halc stared at Zett looking into his very soul as it was. Trying to get a sense of the real Zett Rem. The force flowed from Halc wrapping around Zett as a death shrowd would. Getting the confirmation and understanding of the mind he was going to be dealing with Halc simply nodded and said.

I clear way you get me there.

He was pointing toward the mid-level shipping docks where all the cargo and mass transit commuters came and went.

From there I can leave, there I hide. As nows am to tired to run there but once there I will be able to disapear in to the mass collective of life forms that are moved by the force. Never more to see this place.

Looking over his shoulder toward the rear exit.....Best route not many there that would matter in the force. What is more the Jedi are not moving to interfere should be easy. Come.

Halc raised his arms to be lifted and show that he was ready to leave.

[Adobi-Wan Kenobi]

Zett knew that hiding his thought from him would only worsen the matter, besides Zett had nothing to hid.
he lifted the little guy to go to the shipping docks.
it took some time, carrying the little Aleen slowed Zett a bit but not by much.
after getting there he punched in the slave link codes summoning his ship.
OK little guy, you get 'nuf rest?

[Foxfire]

Being lifted on to Zett's back helped Halc see a lot better. As they bolted to the rear exit Halc smashed the few remaining thugs. Covered over the removal by set with a force scream and a covering wave of force fear washing the alley. The trip was very quick for Halc longer legs often made for faster times.

Once Zett opened the port doors and called his ship to land near them Halc responed to Zett's question with cold emotions.

Very much so.

Thanks for the lift and sorry about the head ache.

With that Halc sent a blast for force energy toward Halc and then reached out to the door controls and ripped them loose making the doors slide shut and power down. Then as if that was not enough he hit the doors again with another blast denting and bending the doors so they would not open with out some force and time. At that Halc vanished into a crowd of people in the main concourse. Finding a hidding spot with in some luggage Halc waited to leave Coruscant never to return till either he was dead or was properly healed.
