The Cursed Holocron

Chapter 2 - The Pact That Changed The Galaxy.

"What is your name boy and why did you take the holocron?" the voice asked. "What is a name, what is a boy? I'm confused and I picked up the golden box because it looked and felt different to everything in this place." the boy replied still slightly shaken by the events that have taken place in the last few hours. "Felt different? How could you know how it felt before you touched it?" The voice said in a surprised manor, the boy thought about his answer and answered "I can feel the darkness that surrounds me and dwells deep within me but the box was like a bright light in the darkness and this attracted me to it. It felt different compared to everything I have played with before, I just wanted a new toy to play with as well as to get off this boring land. The blue shadow promised me that the box could let me go and see the stars, I don't want to be alone here anymore".

His response startled the Jedi master who pondered how to move forward in this scenario. 'This child's force sensitivity is some of the best I have ever seen, only Revan had better potential at his young age. I'm sorry I failed you Revan, I will teach this child correctly in your memory. I will teach him to be strong in the light but to accept that darkness has it's strength to. I will mentally prepare him so he can resist the temptations of both the light and dark side. I will keep him in perfect harmony as I wish I could have provided for you'. The short 'man' appeared in front of the young boy, they were roughly the same height, the 'man' was withered and old, this gave the boy the impression that he had wisdom that he would never understand.

The 'man' smiled at the boy and said" The blue shadow was something called a force ghost, it is what happens when Jedi like me die with a strong connection to the force .Well there was one exception but he will be discussed at a later date. You have the potential to become a very strong Jedi if you wish to be however the darkness within you will most likely be with you forever. I instead propose that I teach you how to control the darkness within you as well as the teachings of the light. I understand that this is a lot for a child to take in but you don't have a choice in this matter because the holocron inside you will kill you if you go without any training at all. If you understood what I said nod your head three times."

The boy began nodding slowly, he began to wonder what sort of adventures he would have once he became strong and left this planet. He pictured himself in brown robes like those in the ruins, using a green coloured weapon to protect the light, the innocent and the poor. His striking figure the proctor of thousands, including those he loves. He also pictured himself as a tyrant who ruled over all the planets wielding a dark red coloured weapon, with people bowing at his feet as if he were an emperor. His final vision of himself was him wearing pure white robe with a black highlight running along his waist and streaking down the back of the robes. His face had several scars, one of his eyes was blue while the other was red. His weapon was sliver coloured with a black and grey handle.

The Jedi Master nodded as these visions filled the boys mind, he hoped he could teach the boy how to embrace both light and dark to there full extent. "I hereby accept you as my padawan, A name is the way common way people will address you. My name is Jedi Master Vandar Tokare , your name shall be Xim Taa. I have trained some of the best Jedi in the order and I hope you will follow in their steps on the path to greatness. " Xim nodded his head eagerly and said " Master Vandar, when will be leaving the planet?" Master Vandar just smiled and said " When you get strong enough, others will sense your presense and come to collect you. Until that day comes I will teach all I know in regards to a form of your choosing as well as the ways of the force. We shall begin our training with a story about a man who was caught in between the light and dark until it tore him apart and killed him. He is the one of the strongest Jedis ever and was just as good as a Sith lord ." Xim ecstatically sat down and listened to the tale his master recited, it was the tale of Darth Revan and this was an important tale to tell Xim as it explained to him danger involved in not keeping the darkness in check. Xim absorbed the story and he swore silently to himself to always keep the light and dark inside him in a state of perfect balance, bringing both chaos and order to the galaxy.
