A Dark Morning (Jack)

[Sky Harrison]

Sky opened Jack's door and removed her arm from around the neck of a disciple who helped her up to his room since her ankle was still sprained in the training grounds. She refused the disciple's help at first but he insisted, probably hoping to get a name and perhaps more information, but she told him very little. She thanked him and the disciple smiled back at her with a wink and then bowed before the open doorway, which was meant for Jack.

Entering the room, Sky closed the door and sat down on a wooden chair beside the door, unbuckling her boots. It's done. She said through the Force and reaching through to his mind. I made it to the top.

[Jack Sheetai]

Jack was reading one of the tomes, laying on the bed as he did so. Once heard he door open though, he saw it was Sky along with another Disciple who was helping her into their room. Still having a sprained ankle it seemed. No matter, he'd take her to the medical wing tomorrow. For now she would just need to keep off her foot. Seeing the other Disciple wink at her he then stood up from his spot on their bed and walked over to the doorway as the man bowed to him.

Glaring red eyes then focused on the Disciple ever the jealous type, "You do that again and you'll have no eyes to wink with! Got it!"

Shutting the door with a press of a button he then heard Sky speak into his mind. Nodding to her he then knelt down in front of her looking into her cinnamon brown eyes. Even though he was angry for having to catch her didn't mean he wasn't concerned about her. He hoped she was alright for pushing her off the side of the pillar. But, it was a lesson in not hesitating, and, she did. So, that was her own fault. In his eyes anyways.

"Are you alright?" Jack said, "I may be a hard teacher to understand, but, doesn't mean I don't care you know?"

He then unzipped her other boot taking it off her foot, then took her sprained ankle in his hands, massaging it. She was his lover and, of course he'd take care of her. Being a psychotic lunatic doesn't mean he didn't feel something towards Sky. As he kept massaging and rubbing her feet he then spoke again.

"I'm glad you reached the top. How many tries did it take you before you stopped hesitating?" He said in a monotone voice.

[Sky Harrison]

Sky stopped unbuckling as Jack came over and took control of her boots. When he asked if she was alright, She ignored the question. She felt it was more rhetoric than anything else. Answering his other question, she leaned back in the chair to relax and winced a few times as he massaged her sprained ankle. "I got it on my first try." She said, matching his monotone accent. Sky rested her arms on the arm rested and used her right arm as a cradle for her head, looking down at Jack at the same time. "Out of everything else, thank you." A deep sigh escaped her. "You showed me that you can still be my master and treat me like the rest. If you didn't and you babied me, my enemies would gain the upper hand."

A gloved hand was placed over Jack's right hand on her feet. "I understand the way you care, Jack. If I didn't, I'd be sharing a bed with goody-two shoes who helped me up to your room, but I'm not. I'm here with you. You can't get rid of me just yet." She snickered and enlightened the mood a bit. "Come. Did you already shower? I certainly need to. After my little dirt incident earlier, I could use a little deep cleaning." Though it certainly sounded like an innuendo...it indeed was.

[Jack Sheetai]

"Good." Was all he said to her about getting it on the first try.

When Sky spoke of him showing her that he could be her master and treat me like the rest he nodded. Indeed he did treat her like the others. It was true though if the Knight babied her she'd have gotten nowhere and all the others would gain the upper hand. Including her fellow Sith as well. They would take advantage if they knew that.

Her hand placed over his she reassured him that she wouldn't leave him and that he couldn't get rid of her. With a smirk he felt at ease. It was pretty much the first time in his life he had someone who cared for him as much as he did her. Then again he was pretty much obsessed with her. She was beautiful and it still surprised him that she was with a clown like him.

"I don't plan on it, love." Jack said winking, and then added with a wide grin, "Nope. Was waiting for you my dear. Deep clean huh? I could use one too."

[Sky Harrison]

Standing up, Sky offered her hands to help him up. "Well then let's get you cleaned up first, my lord, and then you can get me afterwards." That is, if they got that far. Her limp was barely noticeable now after his wondrous massage. Taking the lead, she placed her hands behind herself and led Jack by hand into the shower room. "I want the floor underneath us to hear my voice as if I'm showering with them."

She turned on the water and quickly unbuttoned her sleeveless tunic. Slipping her arms out from underneath the loops in her tanktop, she left the tanktop on around her torso and leapt on Jack, dragging him underneath the running water. Wet lips slipped around on one another as soaked clothing met and stuck to one another. The water was warmer than she would of liked but she didn't care about setting the proper setting for comfort, nor did she have the time.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wrapping a towel around herself, she brushed her wet hair in the mirror and smiled at Jack's barren body. She took particular attention to his abs which she remembered counting with her tongue moments ago. "All clean?" She joked, biting her lip and eyeing what she could still see of him. "Haven't heard you sound like that since our first time."

[Jack Sheetai]

"Adventurous are we?" Jack said with a grin as she lead him into the shower room.

Seeing her undress and leave her tanktop on he then pulled off his shirt throwing it aside. Once he did she then leapt onto him dragging him under the running water. Their lips intertwined with one another as the water rushed down upon them as the water was warm which he didn't care he liked the heat. As much as the heat between the two of them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once they were done he then stood there in nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist. Although a few times the towel slipped off while Sky brushed her wet hair in the mirror. He caught her glancing at his abs and he then raised an eybrow with a devilish grin. Hearing her ask if he was all clean and then speaking of not hearing him sound like that since their first time he chuckled.

"Indeed. You did quite a good job too, love." Jack said with a giggle then added coming up behind her holding her around the waist, almost letting her towel slip off, "I know. You got me all riled up."

[Sky Harrison]

Sky laughed and put down her brush, her hands rushing to her falling towel around her body. "You keep grabbing me like that and we're gonna be taking another shower here soon." The front of her towel unraveled to show herself in the mirror but kept the cover in between herself and Jack behind her.

She stepped away from him and made her way back out into the open of his room. One of the sets of drawers arrived from the Temple servants like Jack had previously asked and Sky slipped into black shirt and workout pants. It was all she had left before she ditched her ship on Nar Shaddaa and she hadn't gone shopping for new clothes since she left the Galactic Empire. "So what do you all do for breakfast around here? Or is that just one of the meals you don't eat? This is my first morning in the Temple."

[Jack Sheetai]

Jack then saw the towel nearly fall but he didn't care he liked seeing her in all her glory as he grinned and laughed, "Not a bad thing, dear."

The Sith Knight then unraveled his own walking behind her as she stepped out into the open part of their room. Seeing one of the chester drawers he asked for the clown saw his lover slip into a black shirt and workout pants. Oh did she look lovely! He then smirked and walked casually over to his table where he placed his knife harness. It wasn't all that heavy to him putting it into place. The harness itself was laced with knives all locked in place. As he looked over at Sky winking he then pulled his lightsaber to him with the Dark Side. Once it hit his fingers he levitated it putting on his boxers and dark violet pants.

Then, taking his lightsaber from the air he clipped it to his belt. Opening one of his own drawers he placed on the usual dark green and white stripped long sleeve shirt. Shaking his hair he then patted it down to make it sit right on his head. Sometimes he made his hair look messy on purpose. Today he didn't which was surprising.

Jack then turned to look at his lover with a sly smirk, "Well, there is Rama's. It's open all day and night so we can order room service. I'm sure one of my servants will be up here soon."

It was then he heard a buzz at his door...

"See?" Jack said with a smirk, "Right on time."

Going to the door he pushed the button and opened it. The frail looking Chiss then nodded to the Sith Knight and to Sky, bowing to both Sith. The clown then offered him inside standing aside to let him in. Once the servant was inside he then folded his arms.

"I've got an order to place at Rama's. I want the usual for myself and whatever my lady here wants. Got it?" The Knight said with a stern tone.

"Yes, Knight Sheetai. What do you wish to have, milady." The servant asked in a submissive tone.

[Sky Harrison]

Sky eyeballed Jack's harness and she had the perfect design for herself. Even her own suit of armor to wear out and about. He said he would teach her how to use throwing knives, so a vest would be in order and even a little gift for him as well. Something to remember her by even whenever she was never around. It was the least she could do. Jack was more than just a lover to her. More than a friend, even. He was her rock and this gift she had in mind would have to be a private endeavor.

The servant bowed to them both as Sky sat at Jack's table with her legs in the seat and her arms wrapping around them to tuck them in close to her. She dipped her head to him following his bow and immedietaly after Jack ordered, Sky rose from her seat and approached the Chiss. "Kind sir, you are in good graces and you have a new order of my own. From this point on, you will continue the formalities with Master Sheetai but myself, you shall just call me Sky." She flashed a glare of "oh don't you interrupt" at Jack and clasped her hands in front of her to return her look back at the servant. "In my eyes you are a friend, not a servant ,and should you ever require anything, dear friend, you can call on me. That is how things shall be. You shall do things for me, not for me." She said, making a clear difference in how she pronounced the word "for" in either sense. "I too have suffered your same life before and seeing me can be your relief of stress." She bowed her head to him with a slow and meaningful dip before rising again. "May I have a breadroot patty with two nuna eggs over easy with a side of Blue Milk to drink? I'd very much appreciate it." She bowed once more with a smile and after the servant left, Sky quickly turned to Jack and put her hand up in between them. "I know what you're probably thinking and before you say anything, I'm not changing my mind about how I treat our servants in the Temple. Anyone servant outside this temple will be treated differently but anyone who willingly comes into the Sith Empire, willingly or not, and becomes a servant of the Sith should be commended on their bravery and treated with respect. If I didn't have the Force on my side, I'm not sure I would have the intestinal fortitude to serve those who dwell here who stuff their face but treat their servants with such disrespect. I won't allow it from me. I cannot control you and I won't but anyone serving me will be treated with dignity and respect."

[Jack Sheetai]

Jack watched her order her food and when he was about to say something she then gave him a glare. Retreating his hand and himself he then sat on the bed. Knowing all to well he couldn't control her life and that he didn't want to. If anything she had him wrapped around her finger. That was because his new found passion in life was her. Before Sky came into his life his passion was chaos and death. Well, others deaths mostly. Now that Sky was his lover she was indeed more then just that. He needed her because for the longest time he felt more alone then anyone. Being who he was to this day he's still surprised that she was with him.

He then added something to the list as the servant was about to leave, "If you would gladly put in an order for a harness like the one you built for me. Just make it a bit smaller, well, because she's a woman. You do good work, and, here you go. For your troubles."

The Sith Knight got up off the bed and handed him a handful of credits from his pocket. The Chiss took it with glee and sauntered out the door. Turning about he then closed the door about to say something to Sky when she placed her hand between them. Hearing her tell him what was what, the clown then shrugged. What could he really do or say? It was her life after all. Not his. Her speech then gave him insight into himself. Was he really that much of a jerk? Looking at himself in another view the clown thought that maybe he was. Although having Sky around had changed him. More then he realized. So, shrugging he then looked down at the ground a moment feeling bad that he treated the poor guy. Then he remembered why he did.

"I only treat him that way because he failed. He failed at upholding his lust for power and submitted to the will of anyone just to save his own life. I should know...it was me who held the blade to his throat. That was a long time ago. In another life. Litterally." Jack said then his lips went into a straight line across his twisted face, "I'm not going to tell you how to run your life as you said so for me."

He then smirked a bit devilishly, "You keep changing me, love. For the better though. Without you I'd still be a lonely and full of only hatred. With you I can channel the darkness through our passionate sessions." The clown then grinned wide, "Seems you got me wrapped 'round your finger in that department."

[Sky Harrison]

Sky took Jack by the hand and led him to one of the chairs at his table. She sat him down and stood behind him in the chair, placing her hands on his shoulders and massaging them slowly. Leaning over, Sky spoke in his ear. "I'm so sorry, honey, for the way I came off towards you. I had no idea you had that kind of background with him." Sky never did say she would change the way she thought of the Chiss servant, but she did apologize for how she approached the situation.

She rubbed his chest and then held him tight as she still leaned over. "You wouldn't be lonely, dear. You'd of found someone even if I was never here. Maybe not one as much of a "giver" as I am but you would of found someone. I'm still a toss-up. I've bounced through my life with several guys mistreating me. I had the abusers, the cheaters, and the disrespectful. Never really had the gentleman type until I met you though." She kissed Jack's cheek and sucked on his left ear lobe. Her teeth came down softly on it and she moved her head slowly in a circle to make him feel good.

Sky rounded him in the chair and sat on his lap with her legs over the arm rests. Her face was concerned with a slight tilt. "Tell me what you desire most out of me. I mean, once I'm done training and before I get promoted. I know I have my own personal goals, but what do YOU want out of me? Is there something you want to do? Visit an old enemy of yours that we take on together? Lay siege to the Jedi Temple? You name it. I'm training for your gain too."

[Jack Sheetai]

Jack was lead to the chair as Sky sat him down in the chair, massaging them, "It's okay, babe. You didn't know and I hadn't informed you. That was partly my fault."

Hearing her words he then grabbed Sky's hands as she spoke of her past relationships. But, he would have been lonely. Nobody here really understood him or gave him a chance. I mean if he could get mostly denied by that Jedi girl, Desiree, then he must be that hideous. Not to Sky though. She saw him as something more. And he loved it!

"You flatter me, hun. Always know what to say to make me love you more you little minx." Jack said as she kissed his cheek and sucked on his ear lobe using her teeth.

The clown then squeezed her hands gently which signaled he loved it. Nothing that was about her or who she was surprised him. In fact he liked the way she was. There was nothing he would change. She was just as crazy as he was. Maybe not mutated psychotic but, she was close enough to it.

When she rounded him sitting in his lap, legs sprawled on the arm rests he then wrapped his arms around her waist. Seeing her tilt her face he then smirked. It was cute the way she did things. Even little things were cute. His obsession with her made her in his mind never do anything wrong. But, again, he was twisted. Sometimes he'd have a mad fit of rage but all she'd need to do is calm his rage with passion.

"We can go to the cave where I built my lightsaber. There is where you will build your own and all my students will. Granted I'll have to put a bed and a few things just for us, but, I'll help you build yours first. Not because your the teacher's pet, but, because I see more potential for you to excel. Plus, your fascination with them gives me an idea. I just might build another myself. I want you to be there for it." Jack said as he stared into her eyes, "But, alone you will find my template's son. Eye him. Stalk him in the shadows and strike when the opportunity occurs. If you manage to bring back something then you will gain much of my respect."

[Sky Harrison]

Sky listened as Jack spoke of her creating her own lightsaber. She thought they were given out to the Sith. But to forge one. Now that would be a sight to see.

Jack spoke of his nemesis template once more, but this time a target for herself. She stroked the side of his face with the knuckles of her right hand. "This...child. It shall be part of our plan. To kill him would be too easy. The first meeting will be a scare tactic to scare his father out of hiding. If he knew someone was after his son, he will be on the move. That is where you come in. Like a two for one deal." Sky snickered lightly and removed her hand from his cheek. She leaned back on his lap so Jack's hands would hold her up to increase the wanted pressure on his groin. "The hardest part will be in finding him, but this girl has a few ends out there for favors just like these. A little prodding around in the galactic database and my team can narrow down where he last touched down and any transactions that were made. We may be one step behind but at least we can narrow down planets. I will find him, dear, and I will bring you a momento. All I need is a name and the search can begin while I remain here to train."

Something told her that this child was no ordinary child and to underestimate an enemy meant to come unprepared and evidently fall into a death trap.

[Jack Sheetai]

Jack then smiled as she stroked the side of his face, "His dad won't be easy to find. I'm sure of that. As far as I know he's either dead or MIA. Nobody as far as I know has heard from him since going into the far reaches of the Outer Rim."

When she removed her hand and leaned back on his lap he was tempted to take her onto their bed. The passion was building inside him and he then breathed in the darkness to himself letting it wash over both of them. Knowing it wouldn't be too hard to find the youngster since he was on the Jedi planet most of the time. As Sky spoke of searching for him but needed a name he then smiled.

"His name is Jacob Murano. Junior. The kid is named after my template. Remember, his father looks exactly like me. As does his son. Well, sort of. You'll know him when you see him. His eyes are nearly the same color as my template. His dear ol' dad his orange colored eyes. When he was forming in his mother there was a mutation...by the Force or nature, but, still his eyes are different then most humans." Jack into her ear then kissed her neck squeezing her sides then lowering his hands to her behind he then took her in his firm hands.

It was then he heard a buzz at their door. Seemed that their food had arrived. Surprising it didn't take too long. Maybe his Chiss servant, Ch'tallo, had put in Jack's order before Sky's but either way, it had arrived nonetheless. While Jack kept his hands on her behind he then lifted her up as he took her legs wrapping them around her waist. Going with her to the door he then focused on it breathing the darkness again to him pulling it open with the power of the Dark Side.

"You can step in, Ch'tallo. Set it on the table, that'll be fine." Jack said with a nod.

[Sky Harrison]

Sky knew Jack wanted her again. Not only could she feel him touching on her but she could feel him through the darkness which surrounded them. Toying with the darkness was like foreplay to her. If he kept this up, she'd have him for breakfast. She giggled and nibbled at his neck as he handled her in his arms and answered the door. Ch'tallo entered and set the food down as he was instructed, but before he could leave, Sky tapped Jack and got down off of him.

The servant and the disciple walked past each other but Sky touched his forearm with a few fingers to make him stop, both looking in opposite directions. Sky kept her voice low. "I'll keep this short and sweet. Before when I said you could see me as a relief of stress, I said it because I cared for what you are. Now that I know what and how you have become, you can consider me an addition to your stress. If you thought, Master Sheetai was tough, you don't know me and as long as I serve under him, you will certainly have the opportunity to get to know me. Now leave my presence." She continued walking her way and he did the same. She spun on her heels, motioning to the plates. "Breakfast, dear?" As if pretending he didn't hear any of it all.

Sky sat down at the table on her side and removed the cover plate, the divine aroma from the breadroot patty and eggs filled the room and Rama's actually threw in a slab of Roba meat for the wait. "So two Jacob Murano's. One Junior. Is there any desire for you to see this boy as one with the dark side? I have no quarrels if you wish to change his mind about the Jedi. No doubt they have already filled him with their self-righteous propaganda."

Placing her datapad on the table, she was ready to put out the order to her team to begin the search. These guys were mercenary friends of hers who used to work with the Tactical Unit to hack into the criminal database and "create" search warrants with fake judge signatures so they could bust criminals instantly. They could be quite the interrogation technique by adding false charges onto clean record people and get the innocent locked up for years if they didn't tell the Unit what they wanted to know. These guys mainly have access to the Nar Shaddaa criminal database, but with a little reasoning and arm-twisting, they could stretch out to their own sources in a few days to get them in on it.
