(This one's gonna be a long one! Sit back and enjoy! Take Care!)

=========================

As Ardan and Shyon are face to face for the first time in seemingly 5 years, Kyly looks to the Saber Ardan gave her and it's not his Purple one, it's just a random Blue one that he must have found, Kyly shook her head clearly though as she pierced the Nexu with the blade then looked up to Padme after she heard her scream.

Kyly looked up just as the second Nexu scratched Padme's back leaving three claw marks behind, Kyly used the force to jump up and cut the beast in half, Kyly was about to fall but Padme caught her and they both stood on the top of the pillar as Anakin got pulled around by the Reek, it's a funny scene but right now all eyes are on the young Jedi facing his passed.

Shyon: You got free. I'm impressed.

The two just circled each other as Obi-Wan dealt with the Acklay and Anakin made a complete fool of himself.

Ardan: I'm just full of surprises.

Shyon chuckled once under the helmet as the girls continued to watch concerned for Ardan.

Shyon: I killed him.

Ardan knew who he was talking about and just continued to step around the Sith Lord.

Shyon: Our father, he's dead...

Ardan wasn't exactly said to hear about his fathers death, he wasn't a good man but he shouldn't have been slaughtered the way Shyon spoke of.

Shyon: ... You can join me, little brother. Together we will be unstoppable.

Ardan stopped circling and looked to the man who was once a Solari and it killed him to see his brother was so miss guided.

Ardan: The Dark side is full of nothing but lies and untruths. You were a fool to believe them...

Anakin finally got the Reek under control and steered the beast towards the pillar holding both Padme and Kyly.

Anakin: Jump!

Padme jumped first landing behind Anakin kissing his cheek, Kyly landed behind her and Padme looked back to make sure she was safe.

Kyly: I'm not kissing you.

Kyly said joking as she remarked about Padme kissing Anakin's cheek, Padme gave a slight chuckle while Anakin took the Reek towards Obi-Wan and waited for the Jedi Master to jump on, Anakin went to head towards Ardan wanting to get him away from the Sith Lord but stopped in his tracks as they were surrounded by Droideka's.

Shyon: I can bring her back. 

Ardan thought about it and the soul reason he wanted to get into the restricted section of the Jedi Library was for the same reason, he wanted to see if he could bring his brother and mother back to life.

Shyon: The Emperor has shown me the power, together we can bring her back.

Ardan looked sad to his brother, there was once a time where he would stand up for the little guy, now he's just kicking them while their down.

Ardan: Do you think she'll be happy, seeing both her sons become the bullies of the Galaxy.

Ardan shut off his Lightsaber making Anakin, Padme, Kyly and Obi-Wan looked confused still surrounded by Droideka's.

Shyon: As oppose to being a Jedi? They lied to you, Ardi. They told you I was dead, Kobo. I'm right here.

Ardan looked to the man he looked up to and yes the Jedi Order lied to him but  Kobo lied to him more then anyone ever could.

Ardan: No. They told me the truth...

Shyon tilted his head to Ardan a little while he has one blade of his Saber still ignited, confused by what Ardan's talking about.

Ardan: My brother died 5 years ago. Your not my brother!

Shyon felt more rage to that then he has ever felt and moved at a speed only the Master Jedi himself could match and they watched as Shyon slashed Ardan across his hips.

Kyly: No!

Kyly was about to run after him tears falling from her face while Obi-Wan stopped her from getting hurt, all looking a little hurt by what they just saw.

Ardan: You see. The Dark side's clouded your mind.

Shyon's eyes went wide under his helmet as he slowly turned around and saw his brother standing there completely unharmed, almost as if he wasn't just cut in half.

Shyon: What? How are you...?

The Jedi and Padme are quickly as confused as Shyon is but they could hear Ardan as he stepped closure towards his former brother.

Ardan: I'm not sure how and I'm not sure why. But I've become more powerful then I could have ever imagined. This was just a test to see how far you were gone and I hopped I could bring you back...

Ardan once again looked sad while the others couldn't believe the power of this young Jedi.

Ardan: ... It was also a diversion...

Before anyone could say anything else a large amount of Lightsaber's just started to light up as the crowed rushed out of harms way, Shyon couldn't believe he was tricked by some boy, Shyon turned back to Ardan as did the other Jedi and Padme to see Ardan slowly fading out of existence.

Ardan: Goodbye. Brother.

Shyon watched as Ardan vanished without a trace, Shyon even looked around making sure he wasn't seeing things in the end he gave up and just walked out putting his Saber away and leaving to go see Ardan.

Meanwhile Mace Windu jumped off the balcony that the Count and his friends were watching from just as Droids started to walk out the tunnels and towards the group of Jedi's all now inside the arena.

Kyly: What about Ardan?

Obi-Wan looked to her as she clearly cared more about him then a Jedi Knight should do, it's his belief that Jedi's shouldn't love but after what he just saw, he's not sure what to think anymore.

Obi-Wan: We have to survive this first. Then we'll find Ardan.

They all agreed as the Jedi's clashed with the Droids...

... Two Jedi throw two Sabers up to Anakin and Obi-Wan, Kyly still has hers from when Ardan gave it to her, how he did she's not sure but now both Kyly and Obi-Wan getting Blue while Anakin caught a Green, that didn't matter what the colour is as they all got out the chains and joined in on the fight, Padme saw a Geonosian riding towards them on the carriage they were brought out here on.

Padme shot the rider killing it and climbed on tacking control, Anakin saw and climbed in the back both working together to take out as many droids as they possibly can, Master Windu and Obi-Wan eventually made themselves back to back as Obi-Wan asked the wise Master.

Obi-Wan: So the boy's with you?

Master Windu looked to Obi-Wan after taking the head off a droid concerned and worried.

Windu: He's not with you?

Obi-Wan now shared Master Windu's concern for the young Jedi as Count Dooku and Jango Fett watched from up above, a Jedi got a little over confident and went to take on the Sith Lord but wasn't able to even think about it as Jango put two blaster shots into him sending him back over the balcony, dead.

Master Windu and Obi-Wan were working well together till the Reek that Anakin road earlier charged in between them...

... Obi-Wan dived out the way while Master Windu ran and once he realised he couldn't run anymore, he spun and cut off it's right horn making it lose balance and only knock the Jedi Master off his feet.

Master Windu did however drop his Saber causing Jango Fett to leave the safety of the balcony to try and retrieve it but before he could Master Windu used the force and called it back to his hand...

... Master Windu gave a small smirk as the Reek now charged at Jango and took him down and for a run trampling on him as they went, eventually though the bounty hunter got out the beasts feet and stood up quickly before the Reek can come for another run, it of course did but Jango was quicker and shot it once killing it dead.

Jango looked over his shoulder and saw his jetpack is destroyed and Master Windu charging at him, Jango took a few shots but nothing stopped the Jedi Master...

... Just like that two swing and Jango Fett is no more leaving his head rolling in the sand as Master Windu stands proud with Count Dooku still watching on, the Count did look a little concerned but no one was more hurt then little Boba who watched the entire thing.

After a while the numbers were getting to the Jedi and they started to slowly die out one by one till they were pushed into a circle not many of them left to fight while a few layed dead on the sand...

... Count Dooku raised his hand slightly stopping the droids from attacking anymore, the droids one by one lowered their weapons while Obi-Wan checked for a pulse on a fallen comrade.

Dooku: Master Windu, you have fought gallantly, worthy of recognition in the archives of the Jedi Order. Now it is finished...

Count Dooku spoke as Master Plo and a few others were pushed into the circle joining the rest of the Jedi, Kyly stood near her Master, not worried of this at all, all she wants to know is if Ardan is okay, turns out love for a Jedi can bring you great power.

Dooku: Surrender, and your lives will be spared.

The Jedi stood still in the circle as if ready for another fight to break out while Master Windu stood tall but before he could respond, an Orange blade appeared across Dooku's neck for the second time in the matter of moments.

Ardan: Funny, I was going to say the same thing to you.

A few Jedi were happy to see the young Jedi but the condition he's in doesn't look good, he's clearly badly beaten and malnourished but that's not stopping him from saving the people he holds dearly.

Ardan: I'm not in a good mood right now so I'm going to give you one last chance...

Ardan held his Saber with his right hand and his ribs with his left clearly trying to keep them protected as if their broken or something.

Kyly was more then happy to see him alive but worried about his condition, especially when a droid walked towards Ardan, Arden cut it in half easily but a second one pushed him over the balcony and the boy fell at least 100 feet or at least he would have if Kyly didn't catch him with the force and pulled him over to safety.

Kyly set him down in the middle of the circle as Master Windu went over to the boy.

Dooku: As fun as this was. I'm afraid you must die.

Dooku was about to give the order but the sound of ships coming towards them caught everyone's attention, Ardan was still lying on his beck not having the energy to move.

Padme: Look!

Everyone did and saw Yoda with the Republics new army heading towards them taking out the Droids...

... This kicked the fight back off and the Jedi's kept the downed Ardan safe till Master Yoda's ship landed nearby after most the Droids were cleared out.

The Clones gave them cover as Anakin helped Ardan to his feet and took him towards Master Yoda's ship, Jedi Master, Plo and Windu pulled Ardan on and sat him in a seat letting him rest while Kyly sat next to him.

Anakin, joined Obi-Wan and Padme on the other ship after making sure his friends okay, Anakin realised that he didn't dislike Ardan, he disliked his brother Kobo and it was unfair to pass that dislike onto a Jedi who stood up to Count Dooku when he could barley stand.

Yoda: If Dooku escapes, rally more systems to his cause he will.

Ardan heard that and pulled himself up to his feet.

Ardan: I can help.

The Jedi Master's turned to the boy, Master Windu still remembering how he was able to Force Projection himself against a Sith Lord, this boy is not normal.

Windu: You can barley stand.

Master Windu gently pushed him back to the seat as Ardan was really weak and needed a medical centre soon or he might be in big trouble.

Kyly: Just stay with me. Okay?

Ardan looked to her and was frustrated he isn't able to help out more but there isn't much more he can do right now so he nodded making Kyly hug rest his head on her shoulder, the Jedi Masters saw this and made note to talk to them about it later at a more convenient time.

Windu: Pilot, land in that assembly area!

Master Windu ordered the Clone pilot after brushing aside the fact that his former Padawan is disobeying on of the biggest rules in the Jedi Order,

Clone Pilot: Yes, sir!

The Clone pilot landed where Master Windu ordered him to allowing most the Jedi Masters to disembark even Master Plo but not before looking to his Padawan.

Plo: Keep him safe.

Kyly nodded as Master Plo bowed a little then followed the other Masters.

Yoda: To the forward command center take me.

It didn't take long for them to get to where Yoda ordered and they came to a small command post with a commander in charge.

Commander: Master Yoda, all forward positions are advancing.

The Commander informed as Ardan lost consciousness due to the fact he hasn't eaten or drank since he and Obi-Wan was captured a few days ago.

Yoda: Very good. Very good.

Was the last thing Ardan heard before he passed out finally getting the rest he needed...

=========================

Ardan is back in the Jedi Temple and after resting and recuperating for a few days he has been called to the Jedi Council, he's ready to face the consequences for his actions but isn't going to hide from them.

Ardan walked into the Council to see everyone present with Kyly standing in the middle of the room looking hurt and upset, clearly they spoke to her before him.

Windu: It's good to see you better Solari.

Ardan stood in front of the council and bowed next to Kyly, he knew he's in trouble as Master Windu used his last name.

Windu: It's with great displeasure that you are both expelled from the Jedi Order...

Kyly was clearly upset even more now then before but Ardan didn't seem to be bother by this much at all.

Windu: ... You may leave.

Master Yoda and the other Masters watched as Kyly and Ardan bowed then walked towards the door but Ardan stopped after a few steps and looked to the floor seemingly in thought.

Windu: Something to say Ardan?

Master Windu asked as Kyly stopped and turned to see him wiping the tears away losing the only dream she ever had.

Ardan: What makes us different?

Ardan asked looking to Master Windu, Master Windu leant forward in his seat intrigued by what the boy has to say as Yoda was hoping Ardan wouldn't just walk out, to powerful the boy is to lose to the dark side.

Ardan: What makes us different from the Sith if we can't even love?

Ardan turned to face all council members as Master Windu sat back in his seat pondering the boys words.

Ardan: Kick me out, sure. Punish me, okay. But don't blame Kyly for something that was my fault.

The council looked around them as they all knew he was lying, the reasons Kyly was here before is because this is all a test for Ardan to see if he's ready.

Ardan: I'm am only human, I'm going to make mistakes. She deserves a second chance.

Ardan was finished and Kyly looked from him to Master's Yoda and Windu as they shared a glance between each other.

Windu: Do you not deserve a second chance?

Ardan shook his head "No", he's going to say anything to make sure Kyly doesn't lose her dream of one day becoming a Jedi Knight, yes, Ardan will lose his but Ardan doesn't care about that, it's Kyly he wants to make and keep happy.

Yoda: All we needed to hear it is...

Ardan looked to Master Yoda as the Council members nodded and confused the hell out of Ardan but when he turned to Kyly to see her smiling at him he knew something was up as Master Windu stood up with a smile.

Windu: Congratulations.

Ardan looked around one last time and saw proud and pleased looks on everyone's faces.

Windu: You're officially a Jedi Knight.

Ardan couldn't help but smile to that, 16 and a Jedi Knight that's something not many people can say, Ardan turned to Kyly as she was happy for him.

Yoda: Start your training in the Force, we must.

Ardan knew he needed more work in the Force especially with all his new abilities he's just recently gained, Ardan turned from his girlfriend to the Master Jedi with a smile on his face

Ardan: When do we get started, Master?
