The Bladian Empire

*Sense a fleet comming* Excellent gentlmen, you have served your purpose. *The meeting memebers applaudes.* Fleet, engage the enemy. Leave none to live. [thinks to myself] I have forseen this. In the dream I had a vast civilization under me. They were sad as was I because of the decite and plot against me. Mantis wasn't one a planet but a moon. And a moon being in orbit around a planet was surrounding the third invisible leader and planet...Gen. Grevious. As he stood tal above his counsil, he had not realized the plot planned to remove those who would betray me.

Commanders you may fire when ready. Gentlmen, I have proved my point. This is why I should remain leader. We must prepare for war. *The meeting members agreed and rised and let the room.* It is sad that it had to come to this, even after I put my life on the line. *Surounded by a poweful aurora, and begins to meditate in the room.* Do not worry commanders, I will use my battle meditation to assist thee. I have mastered and perfected this ability and that no one can compare. *After what seemed like an eternity, the Polaris ships win against the in space orbiting coruscant*

Commander:Emperor, we have won the battle. Auroran troops have reported victory on the fields. We have contacted all rogue imperial ships to meet us back on Rhen Var. The installation of the AA-ST is succesful. And is orbiting the planet.

Me:Good, have my shuttle ready, and escorts. Set me a course to the Senate.

Commander: Yes, sir.

*Arrives at senate. Takes a pod and hovers towards the center.* Now you see. It has always been a goal for power. I work to grow, and further enrigh this galaxy and they defy me. At times I seem abitious, but every good leader is. You have to want more to achieve it. But never once have I been corrupted, never once have I done wrong. However, look at them. Look at how they abuse power, usurp the title emperor, and begin the use of the military. Council memebers. I removed the Senate but compensated for it. You were in direct conversation with me in the Council Chamber, and look at how your fellow leaders betray you, betray me. The formed a weapon so powerful that it could destroy a the galaxy. And with that weapon they wont need a Senate or a Counsil, but them selves. And that is a power that should be absolved. I have the support of our brothers in Combat, the Aurorans and the Polaris, now all I need is yours. Are you with me?!!?

*The entire Room is lifted with the sound of cheers and applaudes* Then let us rid of this corruption once more. And return peace and order to the Empire. *WIth the aid of the Aurorans, the Polaris, and the Consil we head for the Death Forge*

*Meanwhile*... PoB is not here... He must be located in the counsil chambers in the upper part of the building... *Uses communicator*... GMG do not fire on the ships, only fire on them if the attack the Death Forge or Coruscant... *Turns off communicator*... *Uses the force to speak with PoB*... I just want to talk, there is no reason to attack the Death Forge or Coruscant... I'm coming up so don't move...

Stay were you are, lord, mantis. How dare you betray me? HOW DARE YOU REMOVE ME FROM MY EMPIRE, AND PLACE SOMEONE AS INSIGNIFICANT AS GEN. GREVIOUS AT COMMAND? I will not attack Coruscant, but the Death Forge poses me a threat. The dream I had, has come into full realization. I now know why I had it. But what I forgot to tell you, was a minute detail. A detail I had not realized until I was in the council of the Polaris. A massive weapon was which the planets were revolving. And then I realized that such a weapon poses a threat, especiall to those power hungry fools GMG and Gen. Grevious. I will not tempt myself with such a weapon of power. It shall be removed. The power of the empire, MY EMPIRE, lies in those who wish to serve it, not what it can make! Lord Mantis, if you chose to stray from your futile course I will accept you with open arms. Along with the others that seek reconciliation. However that Death Forge will not live to see another moon pass or star shine. It shall be destroyed, or I will die trying...*mental connection severed*

*Sigh*... Gen. Grievous will not rule... Niether will GMG... *Starts to walk towards a Metallic style door*... The Death Forge which I own is to protect not destroy... If I don't stop the disturbance, it will surface... The evil I locked away so long ago will surface...*Opens the door with the force*... I am the one who possess the Death Forge.... It doesn't have a weakness.... *Walks in the elevator and presses a button, the door closes and the elevator rises*... The blue prints of the star forge and the death star becoming one... I have found the weaknesses of the two and fixed them... It is invincible, there is no shaft that leads to the reactor core... Niether is their a star to be the power source of the factory... It's invincible... Now two to become one... The death forge.... *The elevator stops and the door opens*... I never betrayed him, I'm just trying to protect the galaxy...* Walks down the Great Hall*... The evil grows with each passing moment, it's too late... *Stops in front of a golden door at the end of the hall*... I hope you understand... *Opens the door*...

*the door opens to my throne room and there I stand in all my briliance* You knew one day it would come to this, didn't you?*igniting saber,* When you die, I will make it my utmost priority to destroy your evil self. And Darth Mantis, it was a pleasure serving you...

stop I will not allow darth mantis to die just yet * Ignites to lightsabers* don't think that just because I'm a mage that I don't know how to fight with Lightsabers

*uses the force and pushes you into a wall.* Sit young one, it is his destiny. For every dying star, is a new one ready to shine. He must die, or the evil inside him will consume him. It hurts me more than you'll ever know. *Gets ready to strike...*

... *Uses the force and puts PoB in a stasis*... Black Waltz, thank you for trying to protect me... But there is no need... It is fate that this final confrontation took place... I cannot escape the inevitable, this ends today... *Ignites lightsaber*... It's an honor to fight with you once more... *The stasis fades*... I have grown since our last duel... I have changed... *A light aura starts to surround Mantis*... Changed in many ways...

And I will not hold back, *Grey Aurora evelopes me*. The honor is mine...

Then let it begin... *Uses master speed and appears right next to PoB*... Let it begin... *Slashes at PoB with unparallel speed*....

*blocks the move, with normal speed, seeing the move inprogress* you have improved, as well I. *uses force push to force mantis away. Meditates for a brief second, and gets in the seventh combat form, Vaapad* Now you will see my true nature. *begins to charge at Manits.*

Very well, Vaapad... *Mantis meditates on the ground*... There is only one way to block this move PoB... *Mantis calls upon the force power within, then puts his hand on the floor*... *The floor begins to glow*...

Wise choice, but you seem to forget one minute detail *uses master lunge and lands infront of mantis* The chanelling of force energy is not subjected to mine alone, but everything around. *Strikes darth mantis*

*The aura increases*... *Mantis blocks PoB's lightsaber with his own, and creates a saberlock*... PoB, what I am doing is for the good of the galaxy... Why don't you understand that... *Mantis uses force wave to push back PoB to the end of the room*...

Because you and I are fighting for the same good, and one of us is wrong. I have sacrifised too much for my Empire, for you to create such a weapon and hope to remain peaceful is like to ask a Sith Master to abandon his ways to the light. *Relaxes from stance* I have served many a corrupt people, and have learned much from them. Absolute power corrupts absolutly. That is why I formed the Council Chamber, why I placed the Jedi and Sith as my personal advisers. I knew corruptions cold, hard hands would grasp me soon. So I put all temptations away. And that...that...thing, is the greatest temptation!! And must be removed. *Takes stance again* Either you destroy it, or I will. Either way it wont live to see another day.

*Deep within Mantis, a darkness is building*... The Death Forge is much more than a weapon, much more... Think back to our earlier times, you know exactly what it is... Destroy it and you destroy everything... For what powers the forge is what keeps the fabric of time and space together... *Mantis begins to levitate above the ground*... It has begun...

But it was created before it, and therefore can be removed. All this time you thought you were changing, when in fact I was changing you. That time I broke him free, when I placed him back in, I walled him with a piece of me. I knew one day he would be free, and because it was fault I have a compensation. Your mind can be saved but your body will lie in ruin. Transfer your mind to me. So that together our knowledge will end this terror once and for all.

*sits in the Main Hall, and feels a disturbance in the force*

Well lord mantis, what say you?
