WHATTT???????
I finally arrived at the temple, black robe hiding my face, eyes peering out at the world before me. I went to the garden and sat, trying to meditate. I looked up as I heard footsteps draw nearer. It was Peter
He whispered my name and that did it.. my resolve cracked that I wasn't going to cry.
I jumped looking at him" Pete.. I .. I just found out.. I'm so sorry..I came to tell you straight away" I held my breath, scared to death
"Cat, you have to tell me what's wrong... I can't help if I don't know what the problem is" You have no idea I thought, feeling green allready and my stomach was wrapping itself in knots.
My hands shook as I cupped his face, finding his eyes" Peter..I'm .. I'm pregnant" I whispered eyes wide with fear
I broke down crying in his arms" Oh god Pete I'm so scared! I don't know what to do!" and I didn't. I was the most hunted woman in the galaxy right now. I shook hard" You, you're not angry?" I asked in a tiny voice.I had never cried, not since.. well. him
I nodded listening to him, being comforted by him " I believe you" I kissed him softly, only finding peace in his arms." We need to leave Coruscant, and quickly, but I'm not sure where to go. The Avengers will kill me if they find out, so will the Jedi council. They will believe our child will be the next sith lord or lady, depending on if it's a boy or girl"
When he asked me where would we could go my mind started to work thhough it was like a turning of wheels in an empty shoebox.
My voice was cracking, I was loosing it" We could go to Ryloth, Tatooine, Danthomir, Endor, Corellia..We'd have to be on the run always. They always find me" I whispered eyes full of fear
"They won't stop until I am dead, they will hunt me forever" I whispered" There is always changing sides..." I whispered mind frantic
He pulled me up and led me back to the quarters the temple had given him. I was starting to shake I was so cold I never felt the cold or the heat, ever.
I could only nod, feeling slightly calmed" Ok" I wrapped his coat tight around me, shivering
" Things will all work out" he whispered " I promise"
What had I done to deserve someone as caring as he was?
I nodded" I believe you.. Your the only thing I believe in right now"
"No one will harm you, or," he rested his hand on my stomach " our child" man that had a nice ring to it, maybe after 6,000 years I was ready to be a mom?Well ready or not in 9 months I was going to be one.
I smiled, truly smiled" I don't know if it's just one Pete" I said giggling
He grinned mischievoulsy.. God If I had any doubt I was in love with him then it went out the window, I love that smile. "We'll be certain to have our hands full, then, won't we?,Not that we don't allready"
I grinned" got that right" When we got to his room I sat down feeling a bit dizzy. My head snapped up when there was a knock on the door
He said he would get it and the second he was out of the room I hid myself under the bed shaking like a dog in a thunderstorm none the less.
I heard whipsered voices and I could hear the woman, that twit who I tried to kil comming closer, why didn't I finish her off when I had the chance? She'd be my death. Just like Bane had been....Who was still out there, I had to stop him before it had become aparent what I had done.
"Hiya, Spidey... I haven't seen you without your mask before," she giggled. "Uhh, hi... Listen, right now's not a good time for an Avenger's meeting, can we talk tomorrow?"
" Dr Strange was insistant you come now. Catia is in the temple, it seems Dr Strange has this crazy idea she's after you" she snickered" Crazy old crackpot"
I heard every word , letting out a tiny whimper shaking covering my head
" What was that?" she asked hearing the small whimper in his room.
My hand snaped for my saber. I would kill her to defend my child
She nodded" ok, I'll tell him, just be careful Spidey" she walked away
I was shaking as I crawled out, saber handle in a deathgrip" I always hid under the bed as a padawan"
I grinned" yah.." I leaned my head on his shoulder, sniffling softly. I was petrified
I nodded. Suddenly I felt sick. Running to the bathroom my lunch and breakfast came back up on me my whole body shaking
I looked up at him wiping the back of my mouth" Thank you.. thank you for everything... " I threw my arms around him huggung him tightly
I couldn't help but cry, falling into his arms" ergh I feel so bloated in this outfit" I muttered waving a hand at my body. I did and I saw the room spin before my eyes
I rose, just stripping off my outfit as I went, pratically falling onto his bed" Got a spare shirt I could borrow? " I asmed, underneath I only had on just some skimpy underwear
I moaned in protest at having to get up but I did and rummaged through the dresser On finding one I muttered" Yano what would be good? Chicken Alfredo with Escargot and chocolate" I mutered absently
I smiled" mmh thanks" I snuggled into the covers, beckoning him to join me. I was so tird right now.. so sleepy.. and these sheets were so comfy....
I nodded, eyes sleepy" Yeah, your going to be a daddy pete. " I kissed him softly, one hand cupping his cheek
My eyes were closing fast, but I wanted to share this with him, this perfect moment
" We will find peace Pete... We can go back to your world... I know you have a city to protect..I could hide there...mmh send Goblin after the Avengers.."
My arms wraped around him holding him close against me. I could live as a normal woman.. all I needed was him..

Relief?
It took an age it felt like to get back to the temple. I was greeted by Belda who was almost etatic to see us.
" Master you're home!" she cried, beaming from ear to ear. I scooped her up into a big hug tiwrling her around the hall. My back objected but I didn't care I was glad to be home . Godfrey had my bag so I didn't have as much to carry. I was getting so big it was a chore just to go to my morning classes.
" I'm really hoping you get to stay here for a while now master. I missed you"
I smiled huging her again" And I missed you too Belda. I should be able to stay for quite a while, but I have a meeting. And I think you ought to come along.There are some visitors here who might be able to help us catch Catia. I expect you to be on your best behaviour. Ok?"
Sh nodded and together the three of us made our way to the council room. I knocked and we were admitted by Master Windu.
" Phobia these are the new Avengers. Spider Man, Ronin, Ironfist, Wolveriene, Spider Woman and Dr Strange.."
The man called Dr Strange came forward and I bowed. " I am Jedi Master Phobia Auora Deimos. This is Jedi Master Godfrey Zebulon and to my right is my apprentice Belda Pinik." Belda bowed to Dr strange. I smiled. She was learning fast.
" What can you tell us about the sith Emperess? The more we know the closer we can come to catching her"
I sat down on one of the benches, smoothing out my robes. Belda sat on one side and Godfrey on another. Calmly I began to speak of the past 12 years in detail. What she had done, of her power and knoweledge, all of it
Every kill she had made using me as a vessel, I recited names, dates and places.I could see some of the Avengers were unnerved by my calmness of the whole affiar Espically Spider Woman .
When I finished I felt as though a great weight had been lifted from my chest.I would have leaned on Godfrey's shoulder but we were in public, so I just leaned my back against the wall.
" You're sick" Spider Woman muttered
My eyebrow rose" excuse me?"
" You're sick How can you sit and talk of death like you're discussing tomororw's stock prices? It's psychotic!"
Master Windu jumped to his feet but I shook my head " Tell m somthing Spider woman. How many buildings have been destroyed becuase of a villan you failed to stop?
She stared at me blankly.
" My point excactly. Death is commonplace for me as destruction of cities is cmmonplace for you. I do not question you so please do not question me." I could see Spider Man looking at me , eyes meeting, knowng mine.
Dr Strange bowed to me" You truly posess the wisdom of ages. But for now I think you ought to rest. Perhaps your apprentice can asist us in finding our way around the temple"
Belda nodded and we were excused by the council As soon as all of us were outside I leaned heavily on Godfrey's shoulder. He wrapped an arm around me, a light smile on his face. Footsteps behind us caused us to jump apat. It was Dr Strange.
" I .. uh.. I ws just tired.." I said trying to make up an excuse.
Dr Strange smiled " It's allright, the Jedi Council wil not hear a word from me .But you should truly rest, your little ones are tired as well"
I looked at him for a long moment, before I nodded" Thank you"
Spider Man smiled behind his mask I could tell " Leave the grunt work to us, you've done too much as it is"
My eyes drifted closed, and when I woke again I was tucked in bed, out in the living room I could hear the dull thud of computer keys as Godfrey worked on another Senate report. He had dressed me for bed in my favroite pair of pj's. I couldnt stay awake for long , so I snuggled down into the warm blankets and in a few minutes I was asleep again..

Black Heart's twilight
Mustafar, 2 days later
I had made my escape from Coruscant , but I knew I would go back. For many reasons .
Firstly I wasn't going to allow the Avengers to thwart my plans. Second there was something I needed there.
And third, this was the most ludicrous of all.
I found myself obsessed with Spider Man.
I don't know why this was but every moment I was thinking of him. Even as I dialed in some numbers of freinds who owed me favors. They wanted to send the Avengers after me ? Fine! I would bring those of equal power against them. I dusted my hands and began the transfusion. Slumping against the wall my newest project rose from his place on the table" I brought you back out of my good graces. you will obey every command I give you. If you do not I will not hesitate to strike you down where you stand. " I snarled comming closer to the 7 foot tall man.
" Yes Master. What would you have me do for now?"
I glanced halfheartedly at his current state" For now get dressed. though it's not like I haven't seen it before"
As I left Bane to his devices I walked into the holo projection room to speak with my " asscoiates" I might be crazy but not crazy enough to try and take on the whole Avengers squad by myself. I needed help. And I knew who to call.
" It is good to see you again" I said softly" I call on you now to cash in my one favor with each of you. Help me destroy the Avengers and you will have what you desire. Taskmaster. Fame beyond your wildest imagining. Each of you a planet of your own to rule..they are here on Coruscant after me. I need your help"
I cringed just saying it. I hated asking for help.
" What do we have to do?" Moonstone asked , clearly skeptical.
" Just come here to Coruscant. I will provide transport. Then follow my lead, but do what you do best. in short. Arrive, Raise Hell .Leave"
Deathstrike smiled" And you say I will get my hands on Wolveriene?"
" All that my dear and more."
" that's all we have to do?" Diamondback questioned.
" that is all. And I will provide it all, including gold and a safe place to hide." I stepped aside to show them the mountain of Telosnosian gold behind me" All of this I have much more.. One roomful of gold to each of you. "
They all nodded and the holos blinked out. I grinned rubbbing my hands together. Good.. The wheels were begining to turn at long last.
Bane came back out now dressed again. I smacked his old lightsaber into his hands" Make sure everything is prepared. We're having company. "
I stalked over to the end table and picked up a black glass looking ball and it's twin, , pure white. I placed each onto it's respective box. I did not dare clash the orbs together without Dr Strange being present. I could rip the galaxy to pieces.I locked both boxes the keys dangeling down into my suit. If anyone dared get that close to me they would be dead.
With the arrival of my new" apprentices" the end was comming for the Avengers. This thought made me giddy as a drunk.
But why then did my stomach clench in knots and my vision want to blink out at the thought of any harm comming to Spider Man? What the hell was wrong with me?
" Damnit! I don't need these kind of distractions!" A glass vase late 6th centuary hit the wall smashing into a million pieces So ? there was more than that one came from. I needed a nap but in this heat that was as likely as it starting to snow.
Sure enough I look out the window and Mustafar has iced over. The volcanic planet is one of a frozen wasteland.. And .. it was snowing WHAT IN ALL THE SEVEN MONKS?
Bane returned and knelt before me" Master they have arrived"
Finally something going right.
I petted the parts stacked carefully in the corner. I was only missing two more things until the cannon was complete. I had the main pieces and the couplers now. one the charging generator for the startup boost and the second was the power crystal. Without it the cannon would not operate. A cursed gem, now residing on a planet called Earth. It had changed many hands ofver the millenia.

Black heart's dawning
So I figured, they'd send a strike team after me. Is the best they can do? pfftt I've decimiated entire armies with out breaking a sweat and they send a strike team? What am I a child?
Anyway I guess I should go back a bit. After I had made my escape from the eyes of the temple I knew I had to lay low on the lower levels for a while. It was too dangerous to try and leave the planet with their forces out looking for me. So I rented a room at one of the more shabby hotels and kicked back , one foot lying on the bed, counting the cracks in the ceiling.
The Black Hawk had been seized instantly by the Jedi, so my old baby was going to have to bite the dust taking a few with her. The remote in my pocket ensured that she would reveal none of my secrets. The screams of the dying were music to my ears. It was then I decided I would make my way to the Orange district and wait there til nightfall then steal a transport and slip away.
But I didn't count on him.
Apparently I had gotten too careless. He sniffed me out like the dog he was. though he wouldn't have remembered me. He was just a boy back then. Right after he had been gifted with his adamantium skelton. Wolverine.
" The Jedi Council wants ta see you lady. Yer commin with me" He said stepping into my room, blocking off my only means of escape. Well time to play the charm card.
" I would gladly go with you but I'm afraid we haven't been properly introduced. I'm Catia.. but some others call me Kit.. a select few.. And you're the great Wolveriene right? Part of the X men?" Hey I do my research.
" Part of the New Avengers now. But it doesn't make a diffrence yer still commin with me!" He snarled stepping closer to me, claws comming out.
I smiled" I'll go quietly.. but first.. a beer? I have Canadian.. Rare import these days"
He nodded" Yah thanks.. chasing after you is thirsty work"
I sauntered over to the fridge. I knew he was watching my hips moving against the leather. " I'm sure it is " I mumured popping the top on the beer can. An old slight of hand trick sent a sleeping pill strong enough to take out a heard of thirty bantha into his drink and I handed it to him taking a beer for myself. I never really drink the stuff but this time I needed to play the part.
" To a good hunt, and an even more successful capture" I said raising the can in my hands.
He nodded and chugged the thing down without even a thought. Odorless , colorless , and tasteless. The only way verilium would be dectected is by a talented force user.To my known knoweledge only Mace , Yoda, anakin and Obi Wan could pick it up. Possibly Godfrey and Pho too, but other than that no..
" So tell me.. which bike do you prefer.. A chopper or a Harley?"
He raised his hand " Harrleeyy" he slurred before he slumped to the ground.
I got up quickly and knelt over his head extracting information from his mind. I found out about the Avengers . Dr Strange, Spider Woman,Iron Fist,Spider Man and Ronin. My greatest possible threat would be Doctor Strange. His powers nearly rival mine. And I could not afford to throw it all on the line again. The others would not be a problem.
Rising I raced from the room. I needed to put as much distance between Wolverine and myself as possible before he woke. I doubled back and put my scent everywhere. One of the upper level hotels near the 500 Repbulica. I needed a change.. and a plan.. I knew where I could get the materials I needed to defeat Doctor Strange. and I would need to return to the kilms on Mustafar.
I needed my old apprentice back. Together with the power orbs of creation Doctor Strange would be neautralizied . Iron Fist and the others were no problem. Merely child's play. I had to be careful that Iron fist didn't stick with Godfrey, then I might actually have some trouble.
I saw their diffrences, their weaknesses.. So why was it as I sank lower into the rose and hycanith scented bubble bath that my thoughts were on Spider Man?

The remote in my pocket ensured that she would reveal none of my secrets. The screams of the dying were music to my ears. It was then I decided I would make my way to the Orange district and wait there til nightfall then steal a transport and slip away.
But I didn't count on him.
Apparently I had gotten too careless. He sniffed me out like the dog he was. though he wouldn't have remembered me. He was just a boy back then. Right after he had been gifted with his adamantium skelton. Wolverine.
" The Jedi Council wants ta see you lady. Yer commin with me" He said stepping into my room, blocking off my only means of escape. Well time to play the charm card.
" I would gladly go with you but I'm afraid we haven't been properly introduced. I'm Catia.. but some others call me Kit.. a select few.. And you're the great Wolveriene right? Part of the X men?" Hey I do my research.
" Part of the New Avengers now. But it doesn't make a diffrence yer still commin with me!" He snarled stepping closer to me, claws comming out.
I smiled" I'll go quietly.. but first.. a beer? I have Canadian.. Rare import these days"
He nodded" Yah thanks.. chasing after you is thirsty work"
I sauntered over to the fridge. I knew he was watching my hips moving against the leather. " I'm sure it is " I mumured popping the top on the beer can. An old slight of hand trick sent a sleeping pill strong enough to take out a heard of thirty bantha into his drink and I handed it to him taking a beer for myself. I never really drink the stuff but this time I needed to play the part.
" To a good hunt, and an even more successful capture" I said raising the can in my hands.
He nodded and chugged the thing down without even a thought. Odorless , colorless , and tasteless. The only way verilium would be dectected is by a talented force user.To my known knoweledge only Mace , Yoda, anakin and Obi Wan could pick it up. Possibly Godfrey and Pho too, but other than that no..
" So tell me.. which bike do you prefer.. A chopper or a Harley?"
He raised his hand " Harrleeyy" he slurred before he slumped to the ground.
I got up quickly and knelt over his head extracting information from his mind. I found out about the Avengers . Dr Strange, Spider Woman,Iron Fist,Spider Man and Ronin. My greatest possible threat would be Doctor Strange. His powers nearly rival mine. And I could not afford to throw it all on the line again. The others would not be a problem.
Rising I raced from the room. I needed to put as much distance between Wolverine and myself as possible before he woke. I doubled back and put my scent everywhere. One of the upper level hotels near the 500 Repbulica. I needed a change.. and a plan.. I knew where I could get the materials I needed to defeat Doctor Strange. and I would need to return to the kilms on Mustafar.
I needed my old apprentice back. Together with the power orbs of creation Doctor Strange would be neautralizied . Iron Fist and the others were no problem. Merely child's play. I had to be careful that Iron fist didn't stick with Godfrey, then I might actually have some trouble.
I saw their diffrences, their weaknesses.. So why was it as I sank lower into the rose and hycanith scented bubble bath that my thoughts were on Spider Man?

Stepping back through the ages part 2
(Ctd from last post. Sorry for the lack of updates, school is hetic)
" I don't know for certain. But the only person we could ask is Lady Death herself. And I prefer if you didn't get that close. Once one passes through the gate they can never return" he mumbled lowly, dropping onto the couch next to me.
I nodded" but still, even though I might hate her and wish her dead. I have to try and save her. It is my duty as a Jedi. We forgive. Even if the person or thing has caused us multitiudes of pain and suffering, somehow I must find it in my heart to forgive her.She was only using what she knows to survive. She has only been taught hate and loathing. She was jealous of the good fortune the force gifted me with.She sought to take it for her own"
He stared at me like I was out of my mind" Pho have you lost it? Look at what she's put you through! Years of agony! She almost pushed you to the brink of insanity! She would've wrecked your reputation in the order not to mention possibly Obi Wan and several others!"
I smiled calmly" It was because of my resistance to her attempts I found you"
He stopped, stuttering for a moment " Well yeah, there's that.. But but.. what about the time she tried to kill you? And the twins?"
" She made our trust stronger than ever. I know that if anything happens to me you would move heaven and hell to save me and I would do the same, pregnant, sick or not"
He stopped thinking " What about her causing you to withdraw into yourself? So that you pratically speak to no one? And this running around after her and Marasha? Don't tell me you have a reason for that too?"
I nodded" I do . Withdrawing into myself gives me time to watch and observe without effecting the ripple. I interact when I must. I do not disturb the ripple with inaction nor action. Marasha was a lost soul who called for my aid. When someone asks for me I cannot deny them help.Even if they do not vocalize it. Take Vader for example.by simply being in that suit of his he hides from the world. He hides from the many many mistakes he made and feels he cannot attone for. One day he will realize this and ask for help. I can only hope DJK can find it in her heart to help him banadge his spirit"
He sighed and wrapped his arm around my shoulders, batting away a strand of hair. " Phobia.. darling.. If more people in the galaxy were like you the world would be a much better place and there would be no war. "
I let my head rest on his shoulder. Perhaps, and perhaps not. The world would never know.
Just then the com rang. I answered it my voice a bit hoarse. " yes?"
I was told we were needed back at the Jedi temple immeditly. The council had called in reinforcements to help track her down. Apparently someone had mentioned to them I had been looking ill and needed rest. Damnit if it was anyone I know...
I told them we would be there by late tomorrow afternoon. I explained it all to Godfrey. So looks like our vacation would be cut short. No matter. If this was where I was supposed to be, out trying to save her , I would do so.Rest wasn't all that important, just so long as I did sleep when I absouletly needed to I'd be fine. I'd functioned some 5 odd months this way. a few more wouldn't hurt. I just had to be careful.
That night as I slipped into bed I gazed up at the stars and the small blinking planets in the distance. Perhaps we'd go to Geonosis and Naboo yet. I didn't know. All we could do was take one day at a time

The gears begin to turn
So I figured, they'd send a strike team after me. Is the best they can do? pfftt I've decimiated entire armies with out breaking a sweat and they send a strike team? What am I a child?
Anyway I guess I should go back a bit. After I had made my escape from the eyes of the temple I knew I had to lay low on the lower levels for a while. It was too dangerous to try and leave the planet with their forces out looking for me. So I rented a room at one of the more shabby hotels and kicked back , one foot lying on the bed, counting the cracks in the ceiling.

Steping back through the ages part 1
Later that same evening I found myself in the Alderanian library Doing more reasearch I looked through anything and everything. Myths I would've normally set aside I read through vorraciously time and again. there was one I found that excited me particularly "The Universal Keystones"
Godfrey entered the library wearing a loose shirt and a pair of thin sleep pants. The tempetures on Alderian were hellish for this time of the year hence our light state of dress. I balanced the book on my knees and turned to give him a kiss. Needless to say I almost ended up letting the book get knocked off my lap as he tried to pull me over the couch to him. After I finally managed to break away I pointed to the book" Godfrey listen to this. I might have something here. ;"
There were three sisters. One with hair of spun gold, one with hair of onyx and one with hair of fire. They were close, but they were also ambitious. One day while walking on a bridge they met Lady Death. Death said to them " I have come for you three. It is time to cross the gate" The flaxen haired one broke down weeping begging to be allowed to stay. the flame haired one stomped her foot in anger demanding" What right do you have to say when we must die?" But the onyx haired one said nothing but regarded death with a kind stare before she stepped past her sisters.
" I will make you a deal lady death. if I can answer three riddles you let us go free. " Death agreed then her first riddle was spoken.
"Time stands still but yet it runs on.Keepers of time reaching from dusk to dawn. "
The woman smiled" Simple. It is an hourglass"
Death looked a little suprised but then smiled" One riddle you have won but 2 more to come"
" Hidden both beauty and horror, a mask of many colors"
She titled her head and looked at death puzzledly then she grinned" Makeup"
Death was flabbergasted! No one had ever answered those riddles before ever! But her smile grew wicked. This one would not answer her last riddle.
"Wise beyond their years,these guardians possess no fears"
The ebony haired one stared at her"Jedi Knights"
Death let out a terrible shirek. Bested at her own game! But she sighed. " A deal is a deal" As the sisters made to cross the bridge she stopped them again" but I have a gift for the each of you, though your sister is the only one who deserves it."
She raised two glass balls from her hand" For you two. Theese are the power orbs of creation .Born from the stars at the creation of the galaxy.These orbs can strip powers from anyone, cause great pain. But they will only respond in need of justice and mercy. "
The sisters took them, greedy looks in their eyes.
The ebony haired one turned to death." I need no gift, the lives of my sisters are gift enough "
Death shook her head " You alone deserve a gift and a powerful one I bestow"
She took her aside " This key is the key to the library of knoweledge. Here you can find many many things. You are wise enough to use them when need arises. "
She waved to the three women" Farewell I take my leave of you"
The sisters took their leave of the bridge and went their seprate ways. The fire haired one went to a tavern . She got into a bar brawl and was killed for her orb.
The flaxen haired one went into town and met up with her lover. During the night he killed her as well and took her orb.
The ebony haired one upon hearing of the deaths of her sisters was sad but tracked down the orbs and locked them away in the library. Years passed and when lady death came for her again she was surrounded by her children, husband and her grandchildren. She embraced Lady Death as an equal and went unto her embrace.
They were reincarnated years later, their roles reversed. The flaxen haired and flame haired ones led good lives but the ebony haired one led a life of woe and misery. But when she died once before Death sent her back . This time with a promise of a good life but she must be patient and wait. She heard none and to this day death watches and waits to give the wise one what she deserves.
I turned to Godfrey" you don't think? Could this myth.. The ebony haired woman.... " I looked at the picture and I almost dropped the book.Staring back at me were shining blue eyes and a face with short black hair.
A shiver passed up my body. the woman in the picture bore the most striking resemblence to Catia it was scary. All except the eyes. The eyes were happy, full of love, joy and wisdom. Hers were always filled with saddness, hate , loathing and darkness..
