Chapter 10
PLANET: CAROSI LOCATION: REVELATIONS TIME: LATE EVENING
Slowly, Reid opened his eyes and looked up as he felt the starship Revelations come to dock in orbit above Carosi, near the Eye of Providence. His heart began pounding as the fear for what was to come flooded through him. The entire trip from Bakura to Carosi, he had regularly been forced to drink the Vi’Tani Nectar. But he was now nearly two hours overdue for his next “dose”, and he was already feeling it…
A few minutes later, the door to his cell opened with a hiss. Slowly, Reid looked up and stared at his fellow Sith Lords. Elle walked in and unlocked the cuffs binding his wrists to the wall over his head, and put them together to bind his wrists together instead. Reid stood and moved out into the corridor. He was flanked by Amanda and Raphael on one side and Charles and Elle on the other, with Tobias behind him. The group made their way into the hangar bay and boarded one of the shuttles that brought them down to the planet’s surface. The small shuttle landed on the Devil’s Dome Pleasure Dome, across the street from the residential module where Reid’s apartment was. As they left the shuttle, Reid glanced towards his apartment, longing to run to his home, and curl up in his blankets and cry. But this was not to happen… He closed his eyes and swallowed as he was led down into the building… As before, he was brought to the private box overseeing the Vi’Tani pit. And to his disgust, the new Vi’Tani Pods had been delivered and planet. They were currently being fed. A small horde of womprats were scurrying about, but the Vi’Tani were snatching them up in their tentacles, thrusting the squirming creatures into their central blossoms, which upon closing would fill with their digestive juices. Darth Reaper stood before the window overlooking the pit, watching the womprat massacre. To his left was Darth Cenar, to his right, Darth Nocturn. Rojja the Hutt sat off to the side on his large couch. He narrowed his eyes as the six newcomers entered the room… he didn’t seem comfortable being in the same room as eight Sith Lords and their Dark Master. Hell, he was now in the presence of every Sith Lord in the galaxy, save for one… The Dark Jedi, Henry Grace, was now known as Darth Rashio, replacing his brother, Darth Purevil, who had perished at the blade of one Jedi Master David Rossi… “Livion.” The Reaper sighed, shaking his head. He turned and looked at the young Sith. “I have half a mind to send you back to Korriban.” Reid paled slightly, swallowing the bile that was churning up his esophagus. He had spent his first several months with the Sith on Korriban, being tortured and broken and molded into Darth Livion. It was there that his power died… It had not revealed itself again until he had destroyed the Vi’Tani pods a couple of weeks back. Reid had grown to fear Korriban. Korriban meant pain. Korriban meant despair. Korriban meant endless torture with no hope in sight. Korriban meant losing your sanity, and yourself. He had slowly recovered after his stay on Korriban… he had slowly managed to scrape himself together again, to the point that he almost resembled the Jedi he had been, with the strength to defy his Sith Masters… he didn’t know if he could do it a second time, though… he was very sure that if he were sent back to Korriban, Spencer Reid would truly die, and only Darth Livion would remain, without the Jedi conscience to hold him in check… Darth Reaper slowly approached him, a cruel smirk on his lips. Reid refused to meet his gaze, too frightened to do so. The Dark Lord reached up and tore the Sith Torture Mask away, and Reid gasped slightly as the Force came flooding back to him, and immediately he used it. There was loud curse and thud as Rojja was knocked off of his couch, and Darth Dualath, Sassin, Trion, Cenar and Nocturn were thrown into the walls. Darth Reaper didn’t budge. His robe billowed out behind him, but he had been ready and had braced himself. In a flash, his hand darted out and caught Reid’s throat in a harsh grip. Reid gasped as he felt his life being drained away by the Master Sith Lord, and before he knew it his breath was coming in labored gasps. His knees buckled and he was slowly lowered to the floor. He then found himself lying on his back, staring up at Darth Reaper as he grew weaker and weaker by the moment. “This is the second time you have attacked me... and both were within the last month.” The Reaper stated. To Reid’s surprise, the man looked delighted. “Are you seeking to overthrow me?” The Reaper asked. “Take my place as the next Sith Master?” Grimacing, Reid barely managed to get out a pathetic little mewl. “No…” “Shame… If I could only merge you and Dualath into one, you would make the ideal Sith to be next in line to take over when I am gone.” He glanced up at Amanda. “If Amanda had your power… or if you had Amanda’s mindset…” He just grinned and shook his head, then looked down again at a gasp and jerk. Immediately, he removed his hand and stopped draining Darth Livion. The Hutt and Sith Lords watched with wide eyes as Reid’s body jerked and spasmed in a seizure, punctuated by loud, erratic gasps. Several seconds later, his entire body tensed and tightened, his eyes rolling back into his head. Then he fell limp and silent. Amanda and Tobias both winced violently as they felt his life extinguished… “… Oops.” The Reaper drawled, rolling his eyes. “That took longer than usual… odd… Someone bring him back, please.” Raphael, Charles, Darth Cenar and Darth Nocturn all eyed the body on the floor in distaste, and Amanda just looked to be in shock. Tobias’ eyes darted around, and then the man whimpered and hurried forward, dropping to his knees by Reid’s side and began to commence chest compressions. A moment later, Amanda moved in and knelt, placing her hands on either side of Reid’s head, closing her eyes and trying to funnel energy into him. Tobias moved, breathing into Reid’s mouth to fill his lungs, and with a jerk, Reid coughed and sucked air into his lungs, grimacing at the pain that filled his entire body. “Nocturn, Cenar, you have your mission. Go.” The two Sith Lords did as they were told, leaving the room. “Tobias… give him his dose, please.” The Reaper commanded, and Tobias sighed, lifting a small bottle to Reid’s mouth. Reid winced, but then closed his eyes and relaxed when the Vi’Tani Nectar touched his lips. Tears silently rolled down his face, and he drank.
PLANET: BAKURA
LOCATION: BAU TIME: LATE EVENING
The team sat around a table with Master Virr, discussing what the Sith may have had in mind for the Jedi Master once captured. Suddenly, Hotch jerked and gasped.
“Hotch?” Emily asked. “Spencer!” Hotch blurted, and his eyes swam out of focus. He gasped again as the Bond suddenly appeared in full Force, and then there were crashes and yelps as Morgan, Emily, Garcia, JJ and Seaver all crashed to the floor. Masters Rossi and Virr just swayed back slightly, their robes blowing back around them. But then, Hotch yelped and fell back to the floor, eyes widening as he felt his life being drained away, and a for the briefest moment, a vision of the Master Sith Lord swam through his mind. And before he knew it his breath was coming in labored gasps. He then found himself lying on his back, staring up at Darth Reaper as he grew weaker and weaker by the moment. “This is the second time you have attacked me... and both were within the last month.” The Sith Lord hissed, smirking. “Are you seeking to overthrow me? Take my place as the next Sith Master?” The team gathered around Hotch as he winced, gasping out a weak “No…” “Hotch?” Morgan called. “No, what?” Hotch just winced, and then eyes widened as they felt his life being drained away. “Oh!” Garcia cried at a gasp and a jerk from the man on the floor. The team watched with wide eyes as Hotch’s body jerked and spasmed in a seizure, punctuated by loud, erratic gasps. Several seconds later, his entire body tensed and tightened, his eyes rolling back into his head. Then his body fell limp and silent. “HOTCH!?” JJ cried, dropping to her knees and shaking the man. “It’s not him… it’s Darth Livion…” Master Virr murmured. “His life is… fading… and… no… Oh no…” The team felt it a moment later… they felt the life fade away… “No…” JJ gasped, eyes wide. “No… Oh no… No! Spence! NO!!!” Tears were flooding down Garcia’s face, and she turned and threw herself into Rossi’s arms, as he was closest to her. A pained look came over Morgan, and he bowed his head and closed his eyes. Seaver sat awkward, watching Emily’s eyes darting around as she fought back tears… For several long minutes, the room was quiet, the only sound the weeping of Garcia, Prentiss and JJ. But suddenly Hotch jerked, then coughed and sucked air into his lungs as though he had nearly drowned. He was grimacing in pain. His eyes fluttered opened and he looked around. “Hotch…” JJ gasped. “Are… are you okay?” “I… I think so…” Hotch croaked, and allowed Morgan to help him sit up. After a moment, he closed his eyes and rubbed his face. “… He’s crying…” He whispered. “Who?” JJ asked. “Spencer…” Hotch gasped, shaking his head.
PLANET: CAROSI LOCATION: DEVIL’S DOME PLEASURE DOME TIME: BEYOND MIDNIGHT
Reid sat huddled in his cell, naked and cold. He couldn’t sleep. So when there were footsteps in the corridor, he heard them immediately. The door opened with a hiss, and Reid looked up.
“… Amanda.” “Darth Livion.” She greeted, her voice cold, her eyes narrow. She stepped in and closed the door behind her. “Never in my life have I known someone as intelligent as you… you’re brilliant…” “So?” “How can you be so smart, and so STUPID?!” She finally shouted. “How can you be such a genius, but lack all sense?! You’re going to get yourself killed!!!” “You say that like I should care.” “You SHOULD! Don’t you get it!? He’ll kill you if you keep this up! And then your deal is off! He’ll go after that Jedi Knight you wanted to protect!” “He’s going after him anyway!” Reid cried, glaring. “Don’t act like he’s not! I know! He wants to turn Aaron! That’s the reason he made this deal! Because by sparing Aaron’s life, he got ME as his servant, and the time and chance to make Aaron his servant, too!” Amanda shook her head, crossing the room and kneeling before him. “Don’t make the mistake of thinking that Aaron Hotchner will be the only one affected if you die…” She told him, then reached up and slowly removed the Sith Torture Mask. “If you die…” She shook her head at him, eyes glistening in tears, and then moved in. Reid froze as their lips gently touched. Amanda sighed, closing her eyes. Her closing lids forced the tears to flow down her face and she deepened the kiss. After a moment, Reid’s eyes fluttered closed, too… “Mmhh…” Amanda sighed, and moved closer, running a hand up his chest… “No.” Reid gasped, jerking away and turning his head. “Amanda… no.” “Why?” She asked. Reid stared her in the eye. “… I love him.” Reid whispered. “I always will.” “But he’ll never be yours.” Amanda breathed, shaking her head. “Never again. What you had is in the past. You can never get it back!” “I have to try!” “You’ll have to bring him to the Dark Side, Livion… Are you willing to do that?” “… No.” “Then he’s lost to you!” she cried, slamming her fists down onto her thighs. “It’s OVER!” “No… there’s still hope.” Reid insisted. “For how long?!” “As long as he and I both draw breath.” Reid said, firmly. Amanda’s eyes widened for a moment before narrowing in a glare. CRACK! Reid gasped as his head was whipped to the side, his cheek stinging. Then the Sith Torture Mask was back on his head and Amanda slipped out of his cell. Reid stared at the door, then lay down on his cot and curled up, closing his eyes. His stinging cheek was the only part of him that was warm…
PLANET: BAKURA LOCATION: BAU TIME: DAWN
The team saw Master Virr off to his own vessel, bidding the Jedi Master goodbye before leaving the planet to begin their hunt for Spencer Reid… for Darth Livion.
“… But… we don’t even know where to start…” Garcia said, softly. “Reid betrayed the Sith… chances are, they would take him to Darth Reaper…” Rossi said, a grim tone in his voice. “But… no one knows where Darth Reaper is.” Seaver pointed out. “We may have to wait for a sighting.” JJ finally sighed. “Of any of the Sith Lords. Surely one of them will know where we can find Spence.” “I’m sure they all know.” Morgan snorted. “The trick will be finding them, and then getting them to tell us anything.” “That’s what Master Syr is for.” Emily grinned, and the team let out a collective chuckle. “So… where DO we start?” Garcia asked. “We ask Raahn Syr.” Morgan said with a firm nod, and a moment later they were all staring down at a 12 inch tall hologram of the great Cathar Master. “You’re looking for any Sith Lord you can find, eh?” Raahn Sry rumbled. “I think I can help you… Darth Rashio has been seen on Taris.” “Rashio…” Rossi frowned. “Isn’t he—“ “The brother of William Grace… Darth Purevil. Yes David, the Sith Lord you killed long ago.” Master Syr confirmed with a nod. “No doubt he lusts for vengeance.” “No doubt.” Rossi nodded, casually. Ashley’s eyes darted to her Master and she bit her lip, concerned. “Don’t worry!” Garcia chirped. “We’ll protect him!” Rossi gave her a startled look, and Master Syr’s shoulders shook with deep chuckles. “Very well then… may the Force be with you.” And Raahn Syr’s hologram disappeared. “… Alright then.” Hotch said. “You heard him, Jordan. Set a course for Taris.” “Yes sir!” Jordan said with a nod, and left to do just that.
PLANET: CAROSI
LOCATION: DEVIL’S DOME PLEASURE DOME TIME: MORNING
Spencer Reid looked up when the door to his cell opened. Tobias stood there with his dose of Vi’Tani Nectar. The man walked over and knelt, and Reid obediently drank. Within moments, a rush of euphoria flooded his body, leaving it warm and tingling. “Come on.” Tobias said. “The Master wants to see you…” Slowly, Reid stood and allowed a dark robe to be flung over his naked form, and he stumbled from the cold cell. Raphael and Charles were there in the hall, and the three escorted the young Sith Lord to meet with their Master. Reid was once again brought to the luxury box overlooking the Vi’Tani pit. The pit was dark and quiet, the Vi’Tani virtually motionless as they lay in wait for their next victim, be it for food or breeding… “Good Morning, Livion.” The Reaper greeted. Reid said nothing. “Have you thought of any reason as to why I should not send you back for re-training at Korriban?” “… That’s how I lost my ability to use the Force.” Reid said, softly. “You have four choices, Master.” “Do I?” The Reaper asked. “What is the first.” “Send me back to Korriban. Let them break me again. And my power breaks, too.” “The second?” “You keep my power… but accept the fact that I will resist using it in your name.” Reid snarled, glaring. “The third option?” the Reaper asked. Reid looked him in the eye. “Kill me now.” Reid said in a low growl. “And the fourth?” “… Let me go.” The Reaper stared at Reid, then burst out laughing. “I like option number five.” “And that is?” Reid asked. “I’m turning you over to Darth Trion for re-training. Here on Carosi. And I will oversee this personally…” Reid said nothing, he just stared. “Trion. Take him.” The Reaper said, turning and waving a hand in dismissal. Reid winced as Charles and Raphael seized his arms and dragged him from the room. He was taken down into the depths of the Pleasure Dome, into a room that Reid knew was usually used for sexual fantasies. In the middle of the room was a maneuverable chair with restraints, and it was here that he was made to sit. His legs were strapped into the rests that could be moved to force his legs in, out, up or back. The arm rests that his arms were strapped to were the same. A cold band crossed his chest and abdomen, and his head was leaned back in a curved rest that cupped his head, and a strap crossed his forehead. Then Darth Trion left him to… “settle in”, as Raphael put it. A few minutes later, the door opened and Darth Dualath slipped in. “… You can still avoid this, Livion.” She said, softly. Reid looked at her, and did not answer. “Please…” She walked over and reached out, laying a hand on his face. “Stop fighting him. Why can’t you just accept who you are?” “Because I don’t know who I am anymore.” Reid whispered, giving her a grieved expression. “You are Darth Livion!!!” “… But I don’t know who that is!” Reid cried. “I have an idea of who he is supposed to be and…” “And?” “It makes me sick.” Reid gasped, tears welling up in his eyes. “I think of who he is supposed to be… and that I am supposed to become him, and… I want to die.” “… Keep this up, and eventually you will.” “We all die in the end.” Reid pointed out. Amanda crossed her arms, frowning. “But… I don’t want you to die…” She said. “Livion… I…” “Don’t.” Reid told her, looking pained. She moved closer. “I love you.” “You don’t know me.” Reid breathed, giving her a sad look. “But I do.” “No. You love Darth Livion. And no matter what, that is NOT who I am. It is an ideal that the Reaper wants me to become.” “… You will become.” “I’ll die first.” Reid gasped. “Why?” Amanda asked. “You could be happy…” “But I wouldn’t be me.” “DAMN YOU!!!” Amanda shouted, looking livid. “Why do you cling to the Jedi?! You’ve been a Sith for two years!!!” “I was brought in against my will!” Reid shouted back. “You KNOW THAT!!!” Amanda shook her head, then lifted her hand. “You WILL be Darth Livion! And you WILL stay with me! I’ll not be left behind!!!” “Amanda… Amanda no… don’t…” Reid gasped, eyes widening. “DON’T!!! AAAHHHNNNGGGG!!!” And Amanda watched his body writhe and convulse as the Lightning filled every fiber of his being…
