Mandeo walked in looking more elegant than ever his steps hinting a good amount of pride as he walked the halls of his chamber,a place filled with many beautiful things. He wore a black tunic with a purple piece of armor for protection, he wore black pants with a pair of boots that were protected with armor and were flame retardant built for that exact purpose. "Guards! Send me reports reguarding casualties of the Taldryan and Arcona fight" Mandeo spun around and walked to the throne made of black iron. He sat and in a hour or so he would prepare to ambush the Jedi who would cut threw the Antei System a foolish decision for the so-called proclaimed guardians of the galaxy. 

"Prepare my ship......load the guns, I want heavy fire when dealing with the weaker ships".

His guard approached him and Mandeo could tell he was brand new, "Lord Pyxis your shipped is prepared now shall I accompany you" Mandeo shook his head and got up, He walked over to his armory shelf and took out his lightsaber, a trophy after overthrowing the last Grand Master. He moved with urgency as he quickly boarded his ship and barked a few commands at his droids, "Set the coordinates we will destroy them all". The ship went up and and flew, Mandeo went over to the map and spotted the Jedi ships. 

"Prepare the firearms were going heavy" Mandeo smirked in arrogance as 100 blasts shot out and hit the 5 ships each one exploding ,it's parts were floating in the air, one final ship remained.

"Don't shoot it....actually connect us I'm going to kill them all" Mandeo grabbed his black robe and closed it lifting the hood over his head. He grabbed his mask and tightened it on. As the ships connected he moved up and walked toward the bunkers of the Jedi ship. He put two fingers to his temple and sensed the people, 5 padawans, 1 knight. This could not be any easier. He pushed his left hand back and stepped forward pushing the door back, He sped forward to the bed of the Knight without a second's thought, he impaled the Knight and he felt the Dark Side strengthen. The Padawans rolled out of bed and ignited their lightsabers. The oldest one shot forward striking with anger, Mandeo deflected it with ease than slashed angrily cutting through the Padawans defense and slashed his stomach killing him.

The female ran forward crying,"Ra-ndo noooo...Damn Si--th" She got up quickly and lashed out at Mandeo who laughed in delight and spun around with precision he brought his saber into her chest ending the Padawan's life. The final 3 charged him and he activated his anger, slashing through the naive padawans who lay dead at his feet. He sensed the Jedi Master coming towards the commotion, he entered through the doorway and his eyes went straight to the dead Jedi,he fell to the ground and clutched his heart, he looked over and saw the Dark Lord and pure hatred filled his face.

"Good Jedi...Goood now use that hate to kill me" Mandeo ignited his second lightsaber and a voice cut through his head, Sense his power...Don't make the mistake...Sense it" Mandeo tapped into the Force and he shook his head as the powerful Jedi Master swung, he brought up both lightsabers simply defending the attack. Mandeo face expression changed to fear though this was irrevlevant because of his mask. Mandeo pushed forward and twirled the sabers than aimed for the Jedi Master's head leaving Mandeo wide open, The Master swung his blade knocking Mandeo's mask off but otherwise leaving him unscarred. He sneered than leapt over to the bunkers disappearing into the lower-end. 

"Come out stop hiding Sith Lord" Mandeo leapt out and swung nearly slicing the Jedi Master's arm off. Mandeo shook his head and instantly became the warrior that became the Grand Master. He backed up as the Jedi Master began an onslaught of attacks, as the warriors backed into the corridor, their blades slashed the walls leaving scars. Mandeo turned his blade and hit the Jedi Master with the butt of the blade than kicked him in the chest sending him flying along with his lightsaber. Mandeo heard it and dodged as a second lightsaber nearly cut his head off. He ran over to an open space and looked over his opponents, Simply by tell he knew that this young man was the student of the Jedi Master.

"I didn't sense you......You know how to cloak yourself very...very well" Mandeo let out a warcry as he jumped and his lightsaber met with the blue of the young man who was clearly a knight. The Master got up and rejoined the battle slashing at Mandeo while his student did the same. Mandeo lost his hold and the knight kicked him into a metal cargo box, he hit the wall with a loud thud and he closed his eyes as if he was unconscious.

"He is unresponsive, Master did we..kill him" Mandeo didn't have to open his eyes to see the worry on the knights face. He reached out and played a scene out for the knight. Mandeo recovered quickly and his lightsaber impaled the Knights Jedi Master. Mandeo confirmed the vision reached the boy, because he ignited his lightsaber and walked towards Mandeo who lay unconscious.

"Jar don't do it....You'd only be paving the way for you to embrace the Dark Side...you must listen" The Knight gritted his teeth and stepped forward ready to slay the Sith Lord. 

"Master Kiyas....Let me end this we could prepare a strike force and hit the brotherhood without a Grand Master what are they?" He nodded his head enthusiastically and spun around to his Master. They were both unaware that Mandeo's lightsaber was slowing moving over to his hand. Mandeo eyes flung open and his lightsabers flew into his hand. He recovered and impaled Jar with both of his lightsabers killing the Jedi Knight. "You fool....If you had wits you would have looked into the Force" Mandeo took his lightsabers out and called on the Force, pushing the body into his Master,He sat and watched as Kiyas looked over his dead apprentice body.Mandeo stopped suddenly as he felt the rage of the Jedi Master turned around on him.Mandeo ran through the halls flying onto the training deck, he heard a roar and turned around to find the Jedi Master flying in the air, He brought his lightsaber down with so much rage, Mandeo slipped up and rolled onto his back, quickly recovering and he tapped into some of his rage, he swung for the death blow but the Jedi Master defended it well and swung, leaving his shoulder open, Mandeo swung his lightsaber and cut a large gash on the Jedi Master's shoulder. He clenched his teeth and Mandeo felt the rage leave him.

"You are weak sith and your defeat will only prove my point" Mandeo heard footsteps and saw his Royal Guards approach the duel. Mandeo waved them off and went back into battle.

"You will try Jedi?" Mandeo roared and dropped one of his lightsabers using his his free hand to tap into the Force he drew on a violent wave of lightning upon the Jedi Master who dropped his lightsaber and fell to the ground. Mandeo enhanced it and the Kiyas cried "uhhhh...Stop Mercy pleeeaassseee" Mandeo enhanced it and Master Kiyas yelled only louder.

"Only the weak require mercy....Are you really weak....." Mandeo stopped suddenly and watched as the Jedi slowly got up. He walked over and lifted his fist, the Jedi Master floating with it, without a second lost he squeezed his fist tightly, Kiyas choking to death under the dark power of the Grand Master. "I really don't like to resort to my abilities but I need you to learn a lesson on power and loyalty" Mandeo lifted him higher,he breathed lightly than was able to sense the life force of the Jedi Master slipping away. Mandeo roared angrily as the blaster rifle went off, his left leg dropped and he instantly felt the pain, He let go of Kiyas and dropped onto his right leg.

He spun around to see a droid with a blaster rifle standing their ready to shoot again, Mandeo saw the large metal cargo box and called on the Force, it shook and slowly rose up, Mandeo growled and sent the large metal box flying into the droid. The droid flew back and the large box sat on it slowly crushing it. Mandeo lifted his lightsaber and limped around heading towards Kiyas who lay their recovering, Mandeo jumped in place and roughly put the lightsaber straight into the heart of the Jedi Master.

Kiyas shook is head and moved violently, "Ughhh..ahhh" He fell silent as the life immediately left him, Mandeo felt the Dark side power slowly growing and he nodded in approvement. "Guards is my ship ready for takeoff" Mandeo limped over to the droid, who lay dying. "I will make you pay for this..You worthless piece of junk" He lifted his lightsaber and sliced it's head off leaving it's body under the cargo box.

As Mandeo exited the ship he felt the ghosts of the former Grand Masters surrounding him and he shivered, Were they seeking revenge for what I had done to the last Grand Master. He shook his head probably not, were they vengeful Mandeo was unsure. He went onto his ship and jumped into hyperspace ready to exact his wraith if they got in his way.

Mandeo arrived on Korriban 2 hours later and went to the holocron of Grand Master; Muz Ashen. Mandeo ordered his guards to stay around him just in case one of the vengeful spirits of the Sith Lords tried to harm him. "Search for the holocron of Muz I must know what he did to succeed" Mandeo walked over to a tombstone and a cloud of black smoke flew in the eyes of Mandeo who flew into a flash back of his former life.

Mandeo ran through the halls of Kerzek's Palace, as a group of heavily armed soldiers followed in his wake. Mandeo ran into a crowded section of the halls, filled with Mandalore's finest. He had poisoned the leader and he was being chase after killing the. This was Mandeo's first steps, under false pretence he infiltrated an abandoned planet where a group of Mandalorians lived to hire them to depose of any, a few of the Mandalorians had a hatred growing for Mandeo since he killed their military leader via poison. Needless to say everything went will for him, except for the part when he was caught by two soldiers during their routine patrol around the base. Had Mandeo waited and study up on his target, before making his move. He could have avoided this whole situation. Rookie mistake, on his behalf.

Mandeo waited in the crowd until the last of the guards left the area. Once he was sure the coast was clear he slowly began heading out. He activated his comlink and patched him over to shuttle, which was being piloted by one of his droids." Prep the ship for launch, once I'm onboard punch it to hyperspace. ", Mandeo spoke quietly to not draw attention to himself.

"Understand sir." A metallic voice replied back. With that being said Mandeo made a break for his ship. Running as fast as he could. He was just two minutes away from his ship before he was spotted, and the Guards ran after him. He encountered the first guard and kicked him back. Without even stopping to take cover or turning to fight back, Mandeo just kept on running until he reached his ship. "Punch it! ", Mandeo yelled out.

The ship slowly begin to hover off the ground, than out of nowhere his ship shook feverishly for a moment , as a loud boom could be heard outside. "Sir they destroyed one of our engines, I'm setting the ship back down." ,Mandeo's droid spoke out. "Don't you dare land, fly this piece of trash!!! " ,Mandeo yelled out. Than he was knocked to the ground when the ship took off, ascending higher and higher until they was at the planet atmosphere. Than the droid pulled a lever and they took off to hyperspace. The ship tremble left and right and than abruptly stopped, as a loud pow was heard on the outside of the ship. "Sir, we have one engine it is enough to land us" Mandeo's droid spoke.

"Where are we?" Mandeo asked as he picked himself up off the ground. "We seem to be near Nar Shadda, near an asteroid field." The droid replied. "Great, near gang and pirate territory." Mandeo said as he made his way to the cockpit. He sat down in the copilot chair and pressed a button to send out a message to his friend. "This is harbinger 415. I need you Zanos. And I'm stranded out here, if you can hear this message please help." The broadcast was than repeated, and sent out to any ships in the area." Mandeo got out his ship and walked out onto the planet. 

A week later, Mandeo found himself kneeling down before the tracks provided to him by his prey, his fingers caressed the imprint as the heavy rains worked to cleanse them from the muddy surface of the demon moon. Leaning on his spear for support he rose up to a crouch, blood easily dripped to the ground from a serious thigh wound received by the very prey he stalked. Prey perhaps was not the best word for a full grown drexl, but to Mandeo, everything was his prey and for this moment a full grown male drexl was being tracked. Not for credits, not for any pithy cause of revenge or flattery. But for honor and the rush of glorious battle. Only moments earlier before the rain had began to fall the drexl he hunted had found him and attacked, its ambush had nearly decapitated Mandeo but his combat will and instincts that had been honed over decades of struggles and battle had rescued him from this certain peril. On the beast's second pass it hit Mandeo and snatched him into the air but before it could crush him in its claws he released the clasps on his armor to fall twenty feet to the ground, he landed expertly in a roll but his leg had been badly clawed by the beast. His weapons were also gone, all that remained was two combat knives one of which he had fastened onto the end of a study and straight pole to forge himself a makeshift spear.

Alone, wounded, exhausted and hunger driven... perhaps the drexl now stood a chance. Disarmed would never be a problem for Mandeo Pyxis for his hands alone were weapons enough to rip apart any man that moved, this fact was battle tested to this day.

The rain intensified as did the lighting and thunder. Mandeo did not slow his pace, wounded leg or not. The dead drexl he discovered had to be notified of its state and this Mandalorian was the messenger. As far as Mandeo was concerned... the drexl was dead as soon as he had set his mind to the task and challenge. Losing his weapons was simply a detail and an amplifier to this glorious hunt.Mandeo tasted blood, maybe of his own, maybe of the animals he hunted earlier, at this point it did not matter to him.

As an artist upon his canvas, Mandeo Pyxis landed with his shoulder behind his spear to drive the blade deep into the beast of war. The spear protruded out the other side as the beast screamed in both pain and fury but without the possession of a long neck there was no easy way to dislodge this Mandalorian. The beast hunched low and sprung into the air, Mandeo held firm with a widened stance clinging to the haft of the spear for balance with one arm as he drew his other blade and in a reversed grip he stabbed deep into the beasts shoulder. Then the ride began, the beast flew at top speed through the tree of the vast jungle, limbs and branches cracked against Jacobi rending his flesh as they went but to release his prey would turn him into the victim. He shoved his knife deeper into the drexl's shoulder to scrape against bone, he would not be dislodged this day.

Mandeo continued forth until coming to a tall edged depression. This depression held jagged rocks and old dead tree stumps which all promised a painful reception for those foolish enough to fall upon them. He set the pommel of his spear into the muddy ground as he gazed out into the rainy distance. His eyes narrowed as they fell upon the male drexl just a short distance away at the bottom of the depression. Mandeo did not hesitate to act; he crouched low and sprinted forward to the edge of the depression's crest and leapt off of the side to plummet to the drexl's doom nearly thirty five feet below. He had been on this dreaded planet for weeks now and hunted two of the drexls they were a large species of course and required much power and strength. Mandeo jumped out of his rest place and headed back towards his ship which was cold and highly uncomfortable, his droid was fixing him up a fire in order to make foods. "How did I find myself in this predicament..Stupid...Stupid" Mandeo berated himself as he thought of what he left behind on Mandalore, his parents and at least he avoided his abusive father. "I owe Mandalore my service though, loyalty is everything to me" He felt powerless and Mandeo could certainly agree that maybe he'd die in this place. 

Mandeo woke up quick and found himself near the tomb, His guards were around him to make sure he was okay, "Are you okay, Lord Pyxis" Mandeo nodded and smiled, I used to be powerless but now I am power. "We leave this planet immediately, Lets go" He got up and quickly boarded his ship. He sat in his seat the Dark side quietly praising him with power. His eyes turned into a bright yellow smiling sickingly.

Mandeo opened his eyes as he thought of his vision, "I became a Grand Master" He rolled over in bed contemplating what had just occured in a vision he believed to be small.
