The black robed Jedi Knight fingered the dully gleaming hilt of his lightsaber, secured to his belt, with something of a nervous twitch, sweat dampening his ragged, uncleaned black fur as he walked with ominous silence through the all to familier halls of the Tython temple, crimson eyes alight with fear. A pain rushed from his whirling thoughts and clouded his mind, and without really noticing the moving of his own limb, the nearly eight foot canine-like humanoid raised a massively, clawed hand to his temple and massaged it gently, but to no avail. The pain only heightened, and the pained Shistavanen had to stop and place an unsturdy hand, which he practically had to pry from his lightsaber, onto the wall and let his knees buckle, staying upright only by the supporting strength in his broad shoulders, helping to hold him aloft as he leaned against the wall.
It's all my fault. Tsume, you've failed. Your a coward. The Shistavanen closed his eyes and gave a choke as he tried to clear his foggy brain. No! It wasn't me. I had to run. Had to leave him. I had no choice. He fought against himself desperately, pushing away from the wall when his mind momentarily settled into silence. He had to remember where he was. He had to remember Ayva. Where was Ayva? He hadn't seen her, no one would answer him when he'd asked, they all simply looked at him with what seemed to be sympathetic smiles. Could she be dead? No, of course not. He couldn't allow himself to become so depressed over it, they probably didn't know themselves.
Slowly, grimly, Tsume began to make his way back down the hall, unknowing of where his own legs were carrying him. No where perhaps. That was all he needed, it was all he deserved. Nothing in nowhere. His head began to throb again and he couldn't seem to grasp the force long enough to calm the raging hurricane, in his mind, an image flashed, a body, cold, bloody. Ayva. He stood over the body, saber glowing red as his eyes, one powerful foot pressing against her stomach as he stood silhouetted against a pale moon, claws freshly stained with the innards of his former master. Never! He screamed to himself as he struggled to remember where he was and who he happened to be.
A demon in hell? No, he was a Jedi, once a sith, but no longer. His name was Tsume and his former master was alive, she had to be. He began checking off all things he was and the dull ache in his head subsided considerably. Then the darkness came again, and he nearly threw up. He had left Tach to die. He had given up the holocron in a desperate attempt to survive. He had run away like a coward. No, he was a coward. How much pain was Tach going through now because of his actions. Another vivid image came to mind, as gory as the last, only this time, the star was Tach. The pain returned, but this time, he found he kind of liked it. It was what he deserved, after all.
Tsume struggled on until he found himself in a chair. Suddenly, his thoughts went silent, and his mind no longer pained him. Looking about, he recognized the room he was in, situated near the side of the temple lobby and inhabited by only one table and two chairs. It was where he had first met her,cautious and suspicious, but willing to help. Ayva, this was where he had first laid sights upon her, where fiery eyes were cooled by the ice in her own. There had to be noise outside of that room, it was so close to the usually bustling lobby, but all he could hear was his short, uneven breath and hastened heartbeat. What was he becoming? What was he all along?
