Starkiller followed Mike, Cal, Alex. Jaro Tapol, and Mary. He wielded the sword of Warlock Lord as long his lightsaber. Starkiller used force crush on a branch and Mary fell, bur Mike caught her. Cal, Alex, and Jaro Tapol jumped down at Mike and Mary and opened their lightsabers. Starkiller laughed, and the others wondered why did this and what was so funny.
"What's so funny?" asked Mary and held the sword in the hand. "I hope you can answer today at my question."
"Do you get I come after you because I wanted to?" asked Starkiller and revealed his plan. "The Son empowers me with incredible power and the main reason I come after you, is to catch Galen Mark."
"That is your plan all along?" asked Mike and used force sense. "You are consuming your time and no matter how powerful you are; you can't defeat us."
"Don't be so sure, Jedi," taunted Starkiller and threw with force lightning. "You don't realize how powerful I become and I offer you one chance. Reveal me where is Galen Mark."
"I will inform you where is Galen Mark if you tell me what knowledge you have about me," said Alex and looked at others. "Is a fair trade."
"How nice of you," admired Starkiller and spat on the ground. "You are now a stupid human and your parents fear the real power of the darkness."
"I hope you don't believe he will tell you where is Galen Mark," said Jaro Tapol and admired the sword of Starkiller. "Do you return to the old ways?"
"Each era of Sith has his difficulties, and this isn't your concern. I admit this weapon is special," shared Starkiller making close steps to them. "I don't expect to reveal his location, but let's make things fun."
Starkiller began running and jumped in the air throwing with lighting arrows. The arrows split up in many shards and the squad dodged them. Starkiller teleported using the shards to kick everybody. After this, they attacked everybody with the lightsaber. He went after Mary, but Mike interfered and Starkiller tricked him. He electrocuted Mike and threw him in a tree stunning him. Alex with Cal synchronized their attacks to be more effective. Jaro Tapol joined the fight, and Starkiller used him as a shield against Cal and Alex. Using him, he caught Cal off guard and threw him in Jaro Tapol. Alex looked surprised to see everybody down and fought with Starkiller. After a minute, a new Starkiller took him by behind and electrocuted with force lighting. He realized Starkiller used a clone all the duel waiting to strike. With everybody down, trying to get up, Starkiller went to Cal and attempted to kill him. Jaro Tapol got up, jumped in the front of Warlock's Lord blade and turned into flames, disappearing. Mike teleported Cal near Alex. Everybody looked in shock and Cal wept, but Alex held him tight near him while tried to lean on a tree.
"You try getting up, worm?" asked Starkiller and saw how Mike got up. "I warn you about this. It is not my fault if you don't understand and fight with me."
"I swear to God; you will regret your mother gives birth to you," snapped Mike and opened his lightsabers. "I will kill you here and now, scum."
What can you do?" asked Starkiller and laughed with tears. "You are bullshit with eyes and think can stand against the power of a god."
"Don't sub estimate my will, murderer," yelled Mike and the symbol glowed purple very strong. "I will kill you for everything you have done."
"Revenge is not the Jedi way," said Starkiller and saw how Mike healed. "The things get funny, and I don't know what happens next."
"Your death," said Mike and black lines spread from the sign to all his body. "Don't think I am afraid of your summoning, rat. Take this."
"Such monstrous strength," observed Starkiller seeing Mike crushing the creature with the fist. "You don't even focus force in your hands and make a major earthquake on a small area."
Starkiller used force destruction and Mike punched the ball back to Starkiller. The force bomb exploded, throwing Starkiller a few steps back. Mike pulled Starkiller and punched Starkiller's face, throwing him in several tresses. The tress and Starkiller's mask broke into pieces. This made a massive cloud of dust in the path. Mike to be sure Starkiller died, he made a force ball from force push, lighting, and fire. He threw toward Starkiller and the impact heard from a great distance. Starkiller got up and came to Mike Mike with the lightsaber open ready for the duel. They engaged in a vicious fight, and Mike used dual lightsabers. He used them for extra protection and fast attack to counter Starkiller's style. Starkiller used a single lightsaber and knew how Mike's fighting style. During the duel, they used force powers to get the advantage. The last time when powers intersected, the blast threw both in different directions. Cal and Alex helped Mike to get up, and Starkiller showed up and told them to leave because he can't outrun destiny.
"Finally, we've met again," said Starkiller and looked at how others ran. "I must admit, the Son didn't empower me, that kid killed me now."
"Why are you doing this?" wondered Galen Mark and looked at him without the mask. "I understand more than you realize, but the hope dies last."
"To become a Jedi as you?" asked Starkiller and spat on the ground. "I am the real one, and you are my clone. My clone which takes everything from me."
"You don't know how much I wish to discover who I am and learn the truth from Vader," confessed Galen Mark to Starkiller. "The one who you must blame is Vader, not Anakin Skywalker or Luke."
"I share this to you," informed Starkiller and put in attack position. "Losing everything I love, strengthens me. Also, only one will leave this ground."
"You cause excessive destruction," grieved Galen Mark and opened his blue lightsabers. "I will stop you here and now."
"You will try," said Starkiller and launched at Galen Mark with high speed.
They dueled and predicted their moves, making the duel more spectacular. Galen Mark fell attached to Starkiller and didn't blame for what he became, but knew must stop him at any cost. The duel raged on and Starkiller used force lighting and Galen Mark blocked it. Both starting to make steps towards and they touched their hands. This made a massive explosion from lightning and roasted everything around. Starkiller and Galen Mark combined into one and became one with the force. The blast of the explosion threw Mike, Cal, Mary, and Alex on the ground.
"We are at one kilometer, and the blast propels us on the ground," swore Mary and looked behind while asked. "What was that?"
"Starkiller and Galen Mark are dead," answered Alex and sensed in the force what happened. "They become a force and united forming one person. At least they find their peace."
"This is the second time when dies to save me," cried Cal and sensed Mike's frustration. "Don't blame yourself, please. You do what you can."
"Don't cry," said Mike and hugged Cal while arranging his hair. "Is dead, but the death isn't."
"What do you mean? Are you okay?" asked Alex and put the hand over Mike's heart. "Your pulse is fine, but you look exhausted."
"I am fine, this happens when I use a new power for the first time," said Mike and looked at Cal. "Starkiller used the sword of Warlock Lord and banished him in the Forbidding."
"The Forbidding? What is that?" asked Cal surprised and took his tears. "I can't lose him, not again."
"I guess Liam and Theo tell you about this, Mike," guessed Mary and explained to Cal. "The Forbidding is a place where you can banish the doomed souls, and they hardly get out, but they can return."
They didn't have the chance to continue the discussion because a Minion of Seth attacked them. Mike said to Alex and Cal to push him with power and focused in his hand a ball made from the force. He combined force fire, lighting, and telekinesis, stabbing the Minion in the chest. The Minion caught Mike by the head and attempted to throw him on the ground stabbing him with the scythe. Mike used ribcage of Susanoo and teleported at Cal and Alex. Seeing nothing can hurt the Minion they ran. Meanwhile, Ahsoka and the Daughter arrived at Heaven's Well after beating soldiers. When entered, they saw Dark Ahsoka how threw the Blood of Warlock Lord in the water.
"You arrive late, grave hag," insulted Dark Ahsoka and looked at the wall. "Your brother put me to send a message to you."
"I want to discuss with my brother," said the Daughter and saw him near the wall. "There you are. I hope you can stop this here and now."
"I will not stop until I am sure you will win the war," informed the Son and transformed into a bat. "The water is full of the Blood of Warlock Lord, but we have the antidote."
"To get it, we must pass through you," said Ahsoka and mocked Starkiller and Dark Ahsoka. "How nice of you!
"Do you get how dangerous is this?" asked the Son and showed in the water the future. "You can prevent this. Don't screw this up."
"Brother, you destroy more," accused the Daughter and asked him. "What do you say about Warlock Lord or the Red Girls? This gets under the control."
"Sorry to interfere, but everybody has a free will and the right to use it," defended Dark Ahsoka their actions. "What happens is your problem to fix it and you did."
"Why you don't ask the cost of this?" asked Ahsoka and looked at Dark Ahsoka and the Son. "Those lives can't return, and you can't buy them with anything."
"Collateral damage, I can say," continued the Son with complete shines and asked. "Do you have something against it?"
"A few Creators have their mind intact," defended Dark Ahsoka the Son and asked. "Will I give some examples?"
"No, you don't have too," denied the Daughter and realized what it meant. "Most of us fight our own battles and want to change the course of things."
"You have something that belongs to me," warned Ahsoka looking at Dark's Ahsoka belt. "They are to my Padawan."
"Come and get them, grave hag," provoked Dark Ahsoka and open them. "Let's finish with this chat and focus on more important things."
The Daughter transformed into a Griffin and attacked the Son. The Son caught her by surprise and threw her through the wall and grabbed by the neck, throwing in the air. The Daughter caught the Son on the back and rolled with him in the air, letting him go in the water. After this teleported on the land and fought using the force. Meanwhile, Dark Ahsoka dueled with Ahsoka and both taunted during the duel. They predicted and countered their moves all the duel. Ahsoka, seeing the duel didn't go anywhere, she used the second lightsaber. Dark Ahsoka observed the plan of Ahsoka and countered Jarkay, but Ahsoka stabbed her. With the last powers, Dark Ahsoka said to Ahsoka this was the start and to give the lightsabers back to Mike. Ahsoka held Dark Ahsoka by the hand in the final moments, and Dark Ahsoka made a sign to the pool. Ahsoka there her, Dark Ahsoka cleansed the water and became one with the force. Dark Ahsoka empowered Ahsoka's power and disappeared in the water. The water cleaned from the Blood of Warlock Lord. Meanwhile, the Son with the Daughter fought the Son sensed Dark Ahsoka's death. The Son understood they were ready and revived the fallen soldiers of the Scorpion King's army. As a final command, he put to serve Theris as Anubis said. Also, the remaining Star Destroyers joined the alliance at his order. After this, both teleported on Mortis. After the war, everybody attended the party for their victory. Theo, Liam, Mike, Cal, BD-1, and Pod 420 guided Alex to his ship because had to go.
"I guess this is where we say goodbye," guessed Mike and hugged Alex. "You feel when your brain tells to let go, but the hearth does otherwise."
"I understand," completed Alex and remember to Mike once more. "You understand better than anyone I must do this, and I promise I will return to you."
"You still have to train a Padawan in lightsaber combat," said Cal and smiled at Alex while shook his hand. "I am aware I promise I will look after him, but he definitely will take care of me."
"I am not a human to understand at full potential the emotion, but," said BD-1 with hesitation and continued. "Why you find your family when you have the family here?"
"Alex supposes to answer at this, but I do for him," informed Liam and explained why. "Everybody duty is to find his path and roots in his life."
"You can't outrun the destiny because hits you when is less expected," resumed Theo and concluded short. "As it happens to us."
"True," confirmed BD-1 and showed the record from the satellite. "That night in the forest change your lives forever, showing your destiny."
"Everything ends fine," said Pod 420 and shared his happiness. "We stop the Red Girls, BD-1 gets a new body, and his memories that give to me to combine with the memories from Pod 042."
"9S is a very nice guy for letting me have a new body," informed BD-1 and looked at the sky to see the stars. "In case you miss him, you must look at the stars, Mike.
"Mike, the starts are everywhere. So we will view each other," informed Alex and received a message. "Cal, Jaro Tapol come back from the Forbidding."
"I get the message too; thanks for the warning," said Cal and hugged Mike while smiling at him. "I will take care of that, you be careful, okay?"
"May the force be with you!" said Mike and hugged Alex once more.
"We win this fight, but what will come next," shared Theo his concerns and looked at Alex how left. "Mike, this time differs from the first time."
"No need to tell him that," corrected Liam and grabbed Theo by the arm saying. "That is a question for tomorrow; now let's party."
After this, they attended the party and forgot about all the problems. Also, they knew Mike would need more attention than usual and stayed with him. Surrounded by friends, Mike had a flashback making him understand why he must let Alex go. After this, Mike shared with them why he smiled. Everybody smiled too and Cal whispered to Mike his excitement for training in the ways of the force. Also, they were happy because won a battle, but not the war yet for Earth's ultimate survival.
