A soldiers storyChapter One:The hunter becomes the hunted.
Avic sat on the edge of a cliff over looking the dunes that made the surface of Dantooine.He felt the power of the force flow from the planet with great intensity.He felt the planet and all on it as if one with it.Behind him a animal crept slowly towards him like stalking a prey.Avic felt the slow sly movement of the creature,he closed his eyes and snapped his finger like listening to a band of some sort.The animal's back snapped inhalf,the poor creature layyed motionless on the sandy cliff behind Avic in V shape with it's head pointing north and stomach pointing south.
Avic stood up and turned around to see that it was only a small feline that was stalking him.He grabbed it's tail and picked it up and glared at the beast.As the creatures front half fell from no backbone being able to maintain it the animal let out a horror of a screech before it pasted on into the next life.He examined the small animal that he still held.
"Dinner"
Avic walked down the long trial with the dead beast in his hand still.He came to a fork with one side forest and the other dunes.In the middle stood a sign that said,Paradise,Hell.One question.Beneath the sign layyed two holocrons.

Chapter Two:The Choice
Avic picked up both holo's and listend carefully to there converstation.The men in the holo seemed to be ignoring Avic totally.After a few moments of listening Avic asked one of the most simplist questions.
"Which way should I go?"
The holo on the right pointed to the other one and said ask him.Avic looked at the other holo with fustration,the holo man looked back for a moment before speaking.
"Right"It simply said.
Avic looked at the right path and used the force to feel what was beyond the thick bush that blocked the path.He looked to the left at the dunes.Again he used the force,he dropped both holo's and walked to the left.As he started walking to the left the dead animal slipped out of his hand.He reached down to pick it up and a leaf from a tree behind fell.
Avic went on casually and held a tight grip on his saber through the force, as he bent over to pick up the animal.From behind a huminoid leaped from the shadows of the tree branches at Avic.Avic spun around using the force to propel the dead animal on the ground to smack the shadowy figure that was still in flight.A lightsaber blade ignited through the air and sliced the dead animal in half sending each side to miss the figure that now held a weapon that meant friend or foe to Avic.
Avic quickly ignited his own saber pointing it at the figure.All of this was in less then two seconds.Avic forget how amazing and fast beings of the force could make things go.The figure landed and it appeared to be Prophet Praxeum.They both put away there weapons.
"...You still need to work on your pre-attack"Avic said with a smirk as he used the force to bring the two parts of the dead animal back to his hand.
"Yes I know,I thought you would never show..This dead forest,desert,swamp,or what ever it is has shadowed the force more then I thought..So I decided to wait and let you make the choice to which way camp was.But in the meantime I wanted to have a little fun.."Praxeum said with a chuckle.
