STAR WARS REBORN

Chapter 8 - Building a lighsaber

I stayed silent for a half a minute and looked at him. I needed to pretend that I am surprised that Anakin is my father.

Anakin- Yes son it is true that I am your father, come we need to talk.

Heinrich was walking along with his father when they stopped near the balcony.

Heinrich- Father or should call you Anakin why did you leave me and my mother for so many years?

Anakin- Son call me as you please. I was busy, me being Jedi is not a joke I've had lots of missions that I had to resolve.

Heinrich- Can you tell me about your missions?

Anakin- Son the republic is crisis the senate and the corruption aren't helping. There already signs of dissidents and treasonous senators and some planets who are planning to separate from the republic.

-How bad it is. I asked. There are already signs of separatist alliance taking place. That is good the clone wars will still occur.

Anakin- It is bad son, only my friend chancellor Palpatine is managing to keep everything together. The senate even changed the constitution for him, to keep him in the office. Without him resolving and keeping the republic intact it would have split years ago.

Anakin- let us change the subject okay? How was your progress with a lightsaber?

Heinrich- Good! I practised with some swords and with practice sabres as much as I could.

Anakin- what? You don't even have a lightsaber. We need to fix this! Do you know how Jedi build their lightsabers?

Heinrich- Yes, I do father and I keep dreaming about my lightsaber. It calls to me.

A Month previously

Once again, I felt something in the force calling to me. It felt similar to the Holocron that called me, but this feeling felt more natural. I wondered if I will have dreams that could at least clarify what is calling me. So slept and dreamt. I saw a necklace well crafted one, but what caught my attention was the gem. It was small but elegant and its colour was identical to my eyes.

Since the dream's promonitaion, I always kept my eye out for such a necklace as it had some sort calling towards me.

Currently…

Anakin- Tell me then.

So, I described the necklace and the importance of it in my dream. Afterwards explaining Anakin spoke.

Anakin- I think I have seen such the necklace. Your mother has it. Let's go and ask her about it and we can see what it has to do with your lightsaber and your dreams. We both guessed that the crystal may be the cyber crystal which will power my future sabre.

Anakin-Padme may I look at your jewellery?

Padme- Trying to dress to look pretty? She said cheekily.

Anakin smiled and then described what he was looking for

Padme- How did you even know I had this necklace. I received it from my mother as an ancestors heirloom.

So Anakin explained how he knew of it and the importance of it for Heinrich.

Padme- So what are you saying it may a cyber crystal for a lightsaber? Fine come ill show you.

So I and Anakin waited until Padme opened a High-tech safe box and retrieved the necklace.

-here

When I saw it I subconsciously used the force telekinesis to take it quickly. Then the gem separated from rest of the necklace and floated towards my hand.

Padme-wait what are you doing!

-Mother, this is cyber crystal it calls to me, even in dreams, please can I take it? I will use our ancestor gem to turn in to a fine lightsaber. It can be our heirloom for my children.

Padme- Okay son but Protect it.

-I promise mother ill to protect it with my life. It will be our new family heirloom.

-Father, Mother ill go and build my lightsaber now don't wait for me.

I went far into the forest and found the cave near the area I found the Holocron. The area is completely blocking and hiding any use of the Darkside of the force. I am guessing this is put up by god me previously so I could practice the force without interference from the Jedi. As I already received all other parts needed to build my lightsabre I started. I close my eyes and focus, the cyber crystal is a special one I can feel it. It has a strong connection to the force, to me. Suddenly all the parts float in the air everywhere the only thing that stays unchanging is the cyber crystal in the centre of all. In my mind, I imagine a different type of potential lightsabers I want. From ordinary to extraordinary designs but I land on one. I assemble the weapon while attuning every piece to my Darkside of the force. Then I remembered something, I read on the Holocron. It allows a practitioner to leave an imprint of his personality and a bit of his soul in the weapon. Therefore, in a case of my physical death, I would survive within the blade like a Horcrux(from harry potter). Whenever someone used the blade other than me it would try to slowly possess them until I fully controlled their body. It was a risky procedure to attempt as I knew only theoretical knowledge, but it was worth a try. While I am just about to finish my lightsaber. I invoke the ancient language of the Sith and keep muttering the same words repeatedly. The Darkside of the force is then heavily concentrated in my body and suddenly it explodes and releases into the parts of my blade. During the process, I feel extreme pain like part of your flesh is being cut off. My eyes suddenly turn intensely yellow and I scream from the pain.

The procedure was successful my lightsaber has been built. I look at it. the Darkside energy is still flowing through it until it clears up from the blade. The basic design of the blade is a Curved-hilt lightsabre but more elegant and smooth looking. The hilt of the blade is completely black with grey trims around the edges. In the centre of the blade is the house Targaryen coat of arms with 3 dragons in red.

I put my hands on the hilt while shaking from excitement. My own lightsaber! I take in the graceful design of the sabre without allowing my eyes to stay away from it.

-It is mine my own, my precious! I scream out loud with the Darkside all around me.

I press the activation button on the hilt

Vrummmummmmm FVISH!.

It is glorious the colour of the blade is dark purple-red, not Sith red. I swing around the blade and accidentally cut pieces of rocks effortlessly. I feel that some part of me that was missing is now complete. I speculate because the blade has part of my soul, I am more attached in it than normal. The blade is truly now part of myself.

I return back to the mansion and see Anakin and Padme have a date it seems both laughing and having a good time. I am happy for them my parents truly deserve each other and the love their share. Then they notice me approaching with the new blade upon my belt proudly displayed.

Anakin- I see you built your blade huh come let me take a look at it.

I am worried to let anyone touch it. Firstly, I am quite possessive about it. Secondly, it has corruption effect on others, and I don't want my father to find about it or even fall to the dark at least for now.

-Father can't allow you to touch it it is part me and I feel it in the force the connection.

Anakin- Fine I can understand. The connection between a Jedi and his blade. Anyway, let me look at it at least.

I show him the design of the blade.

Anakin- the design seems to be similar to Count Dooku's from what I heard of him. I heard the hilt is perfect for duelling. Son you need practice more to get used to your blade also learn a new style to fit it maybe Form II I heard it's the best for such as lightsaber type.

-I keep that in mind. Father who is Count Dooku? You said you know him?

Anakin- I only heard of him never meet him, he used to be part of the Jedi but left for some reason I do not know, anyway show me the lightsaber fully, activate it!

I activated - Vrummmummmmm FVISH!.

Anakin is surprised a worried for a second

Anakin- it's red!

-Father don't worry I am not a Sith you see Sith use synthetic crystals you know this crystal is natural some like those that the Jedi use.! I said exceedingly quickly worriedly.

Anakin- Calm down my son, calm down! I know your not a Sith haha. I am just surprised by the colour of your lightsabre purple-red quite unique. Heinrich Sith blades are blood red I fought against one. Just make sure to stay away from other Jedi. Not all of them are used to fighting the Darkside users they may harass you or even initiate attacks. Try to keep your head down in the future, please!

Padme- Okay now stop talking your Jedi nonsense and let's eats.
