Leaving the orbit

[Darth Desaevio]

As Keldar reached the Hyperspace Transportation Attachments in deep space he Meditated on where Nexus could be. In the Far Distance he felt a Planet of pure Untainted Dark Force and he believed that that is where Nexus would be. When he punched in the Coordinates into the Internal Navcomputer and it showed that the Planets name was Korriban. Keldar Began to prepare and locked his cruiser into one of the attachments and began to fly to Korriban. The entire time he was meditating on his forms while keeping his destination in the forefront of his mind.

When Keldar entered Korriban's orbit he meditated once again and found a landing pad near the Aura of Darrkness. He landed then gathered the essencials he would need for now. As he exited his ship he noticed the beauty of the Planets sandy surface and it reminded him of his home on Tatooine. For a brief moment he reminded himself what he was there to do. He went to the Cantina and ordered a drink. As he was sitting there he glanced around to see many of Sith Students wearing Pendants and wasn't sure of there meaning. After he was finished with his Drink he left the Cantina and began the Journey down the Path to the Temple of the Sith on Korriban's Surface. He noted in the Distance that he saw massive statues of what must have been Sith Lords Long Past and wondered how they cme to find this world.

As he walked down the path he was met with many Devious stares from various other students and was sure that he would soon have to draw his lightsabers and show them why he was the most feared bounty hunter in all of Nar Shadaa but they quickly Scurried off in the opposite direction so he decided that it wasn't worth the effort. When he got to the front entrance there was a man in black robes which asked......

"Who Invited you to our Temple of Darkness?"

Keldar stated quite camly with minimal anger in his voice....

Darth Nexus.

The man then nodded his head and told him to wait by the door and then entered the Temple.

[Darth Nexus]

Another failure, it was becoming predictable now. Throwing his latest "test" subject into a body bag Nexus let a slave carry it off. This was becoming annoying, he had tried several times over the past four days to make his alchemy work, but he couldn't find the right procedure to get it done. He had tried using pure dark energy to meld two organisms but that had resulted in an abomination that even the Sith would call inhumane. Nexus of course had merely destroyed the being with his saber and then gotten rid of it. Now however the slaves were begging to realize something was up.

He was unable to finish his thoughts as a black robed figure entered his chambers, a temple guard.

"Darth nexus, a student has arrived claiming you invited him, shall I escort him in?"

Without saying a thing Nexus brushed by the guard, pressing him aside in order to leave. The guard merely shrank back as Nexus passed by, seemed more than a few of the lesser sith feared the masked Dark Lord. Passing by a few students and a couple dozen slaves Nexus soon arrived at the front entrance, his robes still tattered and torn as ever he pushed open the massive doors witha flick of his wrist and stepped out into the barren Korriban day.

"Desavio..."

Nexus stood at the top of the steps, assessing the man who had just weeks ago tried to kill him for a meaningless bounty. Now that bounty hunter was here and Nexus had brought him here, it was time to see what the man was capable of.

[Darth Desaevio]

Keldar stood fo what seemed like days in front of the Temple for what seemed like hours. When Nexus finally emerged from the stone archways of the temple Keldar noticed Nexus attempting to size him up. Keldar stared straight back at the man he had confronted only a couple of weeks prior and said.

"Okay, I found you. Where am I? I mean i know i am on Korriban but what am I doing here?"

Keldar took note of the Lords Posture and began to think about what life is like in the Temple.

[Darth Nexus]

Nexus didn't say anything as the would be assassin started talking. The barren mask of Nexus would never reveal a thing, and that's exactly the way Nexus liked it. Turning no his heels he headed back into the temple, using his hand to give Desavio a small tug with the force. As far as he was concerned he didn't need to address Desavio until he wanted to, Desavio was here on Nexus' whim, not on his own. If Nexus had chosen he could easily just kill Desavio with the array of traps and devices in the temple.

However that wouldn't serve his purposes very well, the main problem that Nexus' goal was to build his own small following that would serve his needs. Now don't get the wrong idea, he wasn't trying to overthrow Malfius or anything, he just wanted to ensure that should a rival Sith try to remove Nexus from where he stood he would have the power to remove them. A personal army wouldn't hurt, but Nexus was also under Malfius' command and for that he was limited in what he could do.

Slowly leading the hopefully now following Desavio down a corridor Nexus seemed to not even walk but merely glide over the stone floor beneath them. In front o him student took a side of the corridor or slipped into a side hall as Nexus came forward. He was a dark lord, maybe not by rank but by power. Nexus was respected in some small way by the others around here for that.

Taking another corner Nexus was back in the jail rooms. He walked down the long hall that lead to his room, where he saw a slave dragging a body out of the room. Emitting a small click with his fingers snapping the slave turned and looked. The slave's eyes widened a bit and he quickly picked up the pace removing Nexus' last experiment. As Nexus slipped by the slave he entered his own room and surveyed it quickly, his yellow and red eyes the only thing visible behind the mask of white.

Turning around he could only assume Desavio had followed, he wasn't in a mood to go find him again and if Desavio hadn't followed then why was he here? He had come following Nexus, why would he not follow the man he was here to see?

he room they now stood in was rather large for a students room. Most students were given more cells, but Nexus had a rather large room and then a small room attached to. That room was new, Nexus' laboratory. It was useful an this was were the majority of his experiments took place. The room itself had a bed on the far wall, a desk to Nexus's left was littered with books and data pads. The wall to his right held the door to the Laboratory and a few book shelves that held various books Nexus himself owned. The wall in which the front door sat was fairly bare, save for a mounting rack which held several disabled light sabers. Nexus had never taken the time to see if they were actually salvageable, but right now he was more interested in the Sith Alchemy, not light sabr\ers that suited Marauders and Assassins.

Keldar stood there and looked at the pale white mask of Nexus and began to ponder about what his face looked like underneath the mask then quickly put it out of his mind when he felt and quick and suddn jlt of the force shove him towards the entrance of the temple. Keldar was still not so sure as to how he came to be here and wondered if Nexus knew about keldar's previous master. Keldar wondered if Nexus is the Master sith lord of the Academy but for now that did not matter.

As they stode Keldar began to glance around at the Magnificent Temple that surrounded them. This place reminded Keldar of his old home on NarShadaa just because of the Age to the Walls. Keldar looked down towards Nexus' feet and noticed an oddly manifested force energy which made him seem as though he was floting along the ground. As they walked where ever they were going Keldar noticed something rather odd. The students began to part like a Sandraider during a Bantha stampede. Keldar looked at them as they passed with a Malicious Tone to his Yellow and red eyes. They took another corner and Keldar began to hear screams and yells and he was suddenly pumped with excitement and ecstasy from the sheer sound of it. They came around to a wall and Keldar saw Nexus snap a finger and The slave in the room. As soon as the slave heard the snap he began to move quickly as to move some kind of hideous Humanoid creature of some sort. Keldar followed Nexus into the room and looked around at his surroundings.

Upon entering the room Keldar could smell the Lingering scint of Decomposing Bodies and other Odorous Materials that still yet reminded him of NarShadaa. He looked to his left and saw a mount with many a lightsaber and began to attempt to recognize the components that could be salvaged from such pieces they looked as if they had not been used in a very long time. After a few seconds he Surveyed the room annd noticed about 4 or 5 traps in the room. Thee is no telling how many there truely are except, of course, for the person who designed it. He saw Nexus surveying the room and began to walk towards him and asked,

"So what is this place?" Keldar asked in a dull monotheistic voice.

He stood there looking directly into Nexus's eys that matched his own almost perfectly.
