Shadow stands among a golden throne, over 5,000 Dark Jedi stand in front of him and most were turned a few members of his clan stood with him. Irad began to meditate and he called out to the Dark Side, How should I plan from here. He nodded as a thought came into mind.
:"We shall prepare to strike the Grand Master but first, I must find an Apprentice" ,He smirked as they began to murmur among themselves. This was his first option because he'd need someone to take the fall for him if anything went wrong, and plus who would run operations while he pretended to show undying loyalty to the Grand Master. He got up and procceeded to look over his students, if they can't give him a run for his money they would stand a zero chance against the Grand Master's Royal Guard's as they had good training.
He walked up to Iren Nightmare and stared as he battled the powerful Proxys, the young Sith had the highest midi-chlorian count among all of the possible prospects. He watched as Iren's lightsaber connected with the Proxys hip and sliced right into it. He sensed the anger in the boy and proceeded over to him. "Iren that was impressive" ,He glanced at the Proxy.
" Yes, Lord Corran I have progressed and my powers are beyond imaginable", He ignited his lightsaber and swung at Iren who quickly ignited his lightsaber and defended it. Shadow would use Djem So to pressure the young boy. He struck violently toward Iren who begun to fall back. He swung a death blow at Iren who nearly missed and his lightsaber struck the ground. He leaped back and than burst forward like a blur, the lightsaber coming across Iren's arm and he screamed out.
" This is how you become a powerful Sith, Iren intensive training ", He jumped into the air and landed down his red lightsaber connecting with the armory saber of Iren's who drew back slightly, He can't handle the pressure of my violent waves of Djem So strikes perhaps I should teach him in the ways of Soresu. He pushed the young boy off and he fell to the ground. Shadow raised both hands and felt the Lightning come out of his hands and began inflicting the power upon the boy.
" ARRRRRRGGGGG......HHHHHHH!!!! ", He writhed in agony and pain, as the lightning continued, he felt his power slowly going away, but he could continue if he wished to. He stopped and than watched as the young man slowly got up. He was sweating heavily and was breathing quickly. He walked over and put his hand over Iren's head, The dark side flowed into the boy and healed him. After some intensive training he could turn the boy into his worthy apprentice and in another 20 years he'd be able to defeat Shadow one day. Shadow would head back to Antei later and have to keep his plan hidden.
" Lord Keenus prepare for my shuttle straight to Antei " , He spoke to his assassin who would help to infiltrate the Brotherhood.
" It will be done my lord anything else? ", He bowed and had commanded a few of their trainees to go prepare and also he would give the leadership over to Keenus while he left. The Sith Lord walked off and while Shadow watched over the rest of his warriors, Perhaps I should name the cult of my group, Golden Age Sith...Yes...Yess I shall rule the brotherhood for thousands of years.
2 months later....
Shadow trod through the corridor to the end of the hallway where he entered the chambers of the Grand Master, the one Dark Lord of the Sith. Shadow had plains to end the Grand Master and take control of the brotherhood to form it into a more powerful group. He entered with two guards to either one of his sides, Iren stood on one side and Keenus on the other.
Shadow said no words, he simply crossed his arms as his entourage fell into place behind him, facing his quarry with intent. I will have to draw on my raw emotions but at the same time keep my composure to much and I would become overhwhelmed with pride and slip up, If he made one mistake that would be his life. He would focus on using his Djem So since he could get both reckless but also conquer during weak defenses and he would draw on the Dark Side regardless of if it wasn't aiding him well.
The Grand Master glanced down at Shadow from his throne seat atop the set of stairs. He waved away the servents that stood around him and addressed the intruding member.
"Lord Shadow, I thought I felt an unpleasant presence approaching." He spoke with a slight chuckle. "So you finally show your true colors as a traitor to the Dark Council, I foresaw this. I'll give you one chance to turn around now, and maybe I'll let you keep your seat as a council member."
As he spoke, he looked to the guards the Sith had brought with him. The men began to scream in pain as their bodies floated in the air. As they fell the Grand Master guards stepped out of the shows to block the stairs up to the Dark Lord's thrown.
"You are no match for my power Shadow, don't end you life for such a pathetic attemt to over throw me. The Dark Brotherhood is mine, you are mine."
The Dark Lord stood up from his thrown to just tower over the other Sith just that much more.
Shadow stared directly into the face of his opponent as the troops he brought with them fell to the ground, breathing heavily. He never intended them to fight, but perhaps they would have served to deal with Theguards and spare Lord Caecilis the effort of killing them himself.
"I belong to you no longer, Muz," Shadow said as he raised his hand and twisted it, snapping one of Muz's guards, he ignited his lightsaber and attacked the youngest one, he parried the attack but Shadow jumped and slashed his face than brought the lightsaber straight into his heart killing him.
Shadow took a step forward to show he had no intentions of surrendering. "'Through victory, my chains are broken,' or have you forgotten the Sith Code that binds us all? See, Muz, in slaying you I will free myself from your fate, for myself and for the Sith. You have no vision, no glory in your future. With me as Grand Master, there will be no pathetic bickering between the members of the Council while you sit here on your insignificant throne. There will be only power for those who worship me. Only power for me and for my Clan."
Shadow took several more slow steps forward, channeling his hate for Muz through him to fuel his power. He twirled his lightsaber in his hand and smirked, pointing the blood-red blade towards the floor, filling the room with a glow that would by itself fill a normal person with dread. "You have been allowed for far too long to sit unconcerned while the rest of the Brotherhood suffers. Time to die, Ashen. I hope your rest is filled with torment."
Do you so easily forget that it was me who posses power greater than anyone!" He snapped back. "My vision is greater than you could ever imagine!"
Muz jumped through the air towards Shadow, his saber ignited as he flew. The saber was gold, that of the golden throne he may create one day. He came down upon the traitor with great fury, swinging his blade in a downward strike.
"I am your chains, and I will not break for you will not have victory this day!"
Shadow raised his lightsaber to block the incoming strike, then countered by stamping his foot into the ground, driving Muz back several meters using his Force amplification. Shadow took this opportunity to throw a lightsaber toward Muz who simply met it strike with ease. A feeble attempt at a death blow in any sense, but meant to be a weakening blow in a short window of time. He launched himself at the Dark Lord, his lightsaber raised in attack form.
He watched as Muz slid back, The Grand Master needed a lesson in Djem So, so be it. He felt a surge of Dark Power and jumped into the air and swung his lightsaber toward Muz leg's in order to protect himself. Muz reacted quickly and Shadow rolled to his right swinging his blade for Muz right leg but Muz met the strike with a invisble hand pushing Shadow into the solid wall.
This blow left Shadow disoriented, he looked up and saw a flash of lightning and it hit his body hard, he felt many jolts cut through his body and writhed in pain. He rolled around and begun to absorb the pain, He looked up and his eyes had the yellow eyes, with the red rims. He fell to the ground and apparently was assumed dead. Muz kicked him than turned around, Shadow's lightsaber moved and than an invisible hand swept it up and Shadow clutched it. He leapt up and ignited his lightsaber flying towards, Muz with blazing speed.
He regretted the decision immediately as a wall pushed him back, he landed on his feet perched on his toes. He felt Muz running toward him and stood up quickly and swung at the same time, Muz flew toward him quickly and brought it to Shadow's shoulder a gash appeared, he drew on the Dark Side and it began to close.
Shadow swung his lightsaber and the clash one sabers lit up the room, Shadow spun and hit Muz in the arm, distracting him for just that one moment and Shadow took the chance to draw on his power and a mystical hand pushed Muz back. Shadow jumped forth and tried to kill Muz, but he was quick and moved out the wya for incredible speed, Muz kicked out and caught Shadow in the leg knocking him down. Shadow leaped up and spun kicking Muz square in the face, drawing blood for the first time.
"What's wrong, Muz?" Shadow asked. "Forget the smell of your own blood?"
He began to be the defense as Muz began attacking him relentlessly, Shadow had no option but to switch to the offense, he deflected the hit than spun around and he swung at his back, Muz pushed off and knocked Shadow to the ground. The Dark Lord began to slowly walk towards his opponent with his golden lightsaber raised in an ready-to-kill stance. He leapt up with killer speed and hit Muz quickly, he hit the ground and slid over to the corner.
Shadow had fought three Sith before, but this was not the same, he was hit once but could manage to hold off the sabers, for at least until Muz approached. When he came close enough, Shadow drew upon the Dark Side and a ripple went right through his hands as a wave of lightning flew out his fingers, knocking away Muz's lightsaber and knocking Muz back into the other wall. Shadow then rushed toward Muz, his speed quickly increased and ran forward to the Dark Lord, driving his lightsaber through the front of his adversary, Now Golden Age Sith......Strike NOWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!......They would attack all the initiates on Antei and than take over from their.
Shadow grinned crazily and felt a strange feeling in the force and knew the title, Dark Lord of the Sith belonged to him and he also earned the title of Grand Master, he watched as Muz stayed still, he picked up the golden lightsaber and put it inside his robe. " Muz I've been plotting for years and now I've finally taken over " , He walked over to Muz guards and began to kill them one by one. He walked over and sat in the Iron Throne, it was finally his.
Shadow opened his eyes and stared around the vision of him becoming Grand Master was one of great success as he had succeeded after 30 years of plotting, Could it become real or was it all a dream.
