Malice lay on the ground, his body smoking from his own force lightning attack. But to make matters worse, Amalia had also broken both his legs. his body was in pain...which he drew upon to heal his body. But it wuld not be enough, he would need to get to a bacta tank. He had drained much of his force energy and refuesed to drain anymore.


Malice managed to sit up, wiping the blood from his mouth he eyed Amalia.

*Well done my dear, i never knew you could do such evil things to a person*

Malice dragged himself up againts a tree, he pulled out a comm link from his pocket and once again looked back up at Amalia.

*It would seem i have underestimated you. I will go....for now, but i will be back. You will never have a moments rest from battle so long as i live*

Speaking into the comm link he waited. After a few moments a shuttle was heard from above, landing in a clearing a few feet away. The marching of footsteps soon followed the landing. Appearing out from the trees was about 15 stormtroopers. Three walked up to Malice heping him up, while the others aimed their blasters at the jedi.

*Until next time Amalia...i bid you good bye*

OOC: Ahh thefeel of bitter defeat. Oh well it matters not. I will be back, and then i will morph to give Amalia more of a challenge. But none the less nice fighting with you.

"It's too bad you didn't get to leave under better circumstances. Perhaps next time you will be more mindful of whom you choose to fight. You brought about your own pain and suffering, Malice, I did not make it so. My actions were all in self defense. There's nothing wrong with walking away."

She paused for a moment, thinking of something.

"Your son deserves to know what a strong warrior you are, and he shall know. Your son does not see you as I see you, he sees you as his father, as his Daddy, he knows nothing more. He does not consider you evil, as I do. He knows you belong to the Darkside. In a way, he thinks highly of you..."

"..I know you more than anyone else does, you can deny to me that you have no goodness, but I know it to be true, because I've seen it. You can consume yourself to the Darkside, but there will always be some goodness deep within you, and it will never go away, even if it never makes it to the surface of your heart. It will remain, but it will be hidden."

She kept her gaze on Malice.

"I did not leave you because of your good qualities, I left you because of your bad qualities. It was not my doing, but your own. I could not change you and I had no right to, so I did the honorable thing, and I let you go..."

"Perhaps one day you shall kill me, but it will surf no purpose. I will be gone, but you'll still be as you are now. The dark path is a lonely path. If you continue to kill you will have nothing but anger, sorrow, and pain to keep you company."

'You are always welcome to come see me, so long as you don't bring your Darkness with you. Though that would make you an honorable man, and you don't have what it takes to be honorable, do you?"


She raised her left hand, stopping him from speaking.

"A Jedi is never the one to start trouble, only to stop it. My proof in welcoming you makes that so. All that you have now, your loneliness is your own fault. Not mine and Lono's. You are still that boy's father, and you are still a person. No one deserves to be lonely. You can have company. It is your choice, Malice."

She went quiet, watching Malice. He would probably walk off now, not taking any of her words to heart. The Darkside was too strong within him, but she knew her words would somehow touch him, if even for a little bit, simply because she knew Malice, and he could not deny her from that.

Malice merely motioned for the troopers to take him out of here. Her words did indeed reach Malice....it had reached him him where it hurt him the most, his pride. It was true he had brought upon the pain and suffering to himself, and maybe even the cause of him being lonley was his as well.

Malice had a little part of him locked away tightly in the farthest reaches of his mind. The part which he still cared for Amalia.....and his son Lono. But he would not tell anyone such feelings...allthough Amalia knew how he felt. That part of him would plague him till his last dieing days.

Even so he would go and train to become stronger, then he would return and sho wAmalia just how evil he can be.
