"Look at the two love birds...its cute how you try and cover up each others down falls...like your trust issue Draco, and your past Saphira...it really is quite cute." said Fenris with a smile on his face.

He stopped making his pheromones, no use to try and persuade Saphira, she was "marked".

"I heard the whole thing, so you can stop pretending.  I also have a recording of it within my arm." said Fenris. " Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, in fact, Draco...I destroyed the memory chip so know one could find out, and Saphira...I cheated at Pazaak..." said Fenris.

No duh I cheated at Pazaak

"Is something wrong Saphira?" asked Fenris, still smiling.  Just for fun he exuded a heavy dose of his pheromones, this time it was his special kind.

Fenris looked at Draco, and nodded, knowing full well he could smell his special pheromones. Fenris looked at HK-60, and winked. 

"I was wondering where you two were, and finally gave up the search and came here to train, but I guess I stumbled upon you both.  Draco, any chance I can get into the Brotherhood?" asked Fenris. 

He did a favor for Draco, and he hoped Draco would do a favor for him.

Draco, for some strange reason

Draco got close to Saphira's neck. He whispered something so softly that Fenris couldn't hear. Saph shuddered and goosebumps spread across her body like an instant plague. He looked at Fenris and got nose to nose with him.

"Alright Fenris." Draco snareled and exhaled deeply while growling. "I offered you friendship once. You denied it by insulting my roots and loyalty. I then offered you partnership, which you denied by trying to blackmale me. Now you stand before me and disrespect me by kissing Saph and mocking me and my family. That's where the Imperial officer fucked up. But if I learned anything from Saph, it's this." He looked at Saph and said softly, "I will not make the same mistake twice and dishonor my family again." Draco placed a hand on his stomach so Saph could see and said, "Family is the most important thing."

Saphira looked up and watched as Dracp started to walk out. Her feet forcing her to move she looked back to Fenris. The Falleen was just smiling and Saphira somehow managed to fight the phermones as she left without a word to catch up with Draco.

He was almost around a corner when she caught up to him.

"Draco..."

SHe started to respond. She felt guilty that she let it happen. But Draco only grabbed her and pulled her into his arms as they entered a small storage room to talk. The door locking behind them as he turned on th elight.

What you have just done is usually an unforgivable act."

She looked depressed for the first time since he had known her.
Draco then forced her to look at him. He smiled an evil cocky smile.
"But hey, it's me. You can't resist me."

"I know...." Letting herself meet his  Gaze. "Fenris.. he.. I.. I thought I was stronger.. I. I have never wanted him like that.. Never.."

She shuddered as if in disgust and anger. More then likly it was both.

FENRIS! I'm gonna...gonna...gonna..."

He screamed and the walls seemed to bow away from him in fear. Saph was now genuinely afraid. Not for Draco. Not even fir herself...but for Fenris.

Saph shot herself forward and grabbed his shoulder. Looking straight into his eyes as she ignored the wounds he inflicted against himself.

"You will not harm him. It's what he wants Draco.."

He snarled at the order,but she didn't move away from him. It wasn't that she didn't care for Fenris, but that the Army needed him and every body for the missions. The Falleen were devious, that much was obvious. Fenris enjoyed the conflict  he was creating. Saphira found it annoying.

"I don't care.. he  does that again..."

Saphira sighed and did thew only thing she thought that would calm him down. Moving foward the last few inches she pressed her lips to his. The cut on her lip still stung and re-opened against his....

Draco started to shake, seeming to shiver from his very core.

What ARE you doing? Are you actually going to tell her your only other secret? Don't. Don't tell her. She'll find out soon enough about your inner Demon. Do not tell her ANYTHING. She'll run like the rest of them did.

"SHUT UP!" he yelled.

Saphira looked angry, "WHAT? What did you just say?"

Draco was struggling against himself. He needed to tell her, but he was afraid she'd think he was a freak. Draco looked at the ground and said, "Every since I was a child..."

What are you doing? Are you insane?

"I've had this problem. At first, I thought of it as nothing more than a haunt. Things would move on their own when I was around."

Stop! You fool. You've told her enough. Listen to yourself. You sound like an idiot.

"Then, as I became older, It began to do more miscevious things. Breaking things, throwing things and even hurting people. I began to notice that it only happened when I was angered."

Oh, shit. Come on Draco, she's gonna leave. Your gonna lose her.

Draco continued, "The brotherhood didn't know what to do about it. They performed exorcisims on a regular basis. Then one day, they found out that I could control it, tell it what to do, command it. I never wanted to, it always scared the shit out of me. But then it was like it finally possessed me. It took control of me, it made me do things that I couldn't control. I eventualy learned how to stop it when I wanted too, and let it control me when I wanted it to."

Saph backed away a few steps, she looked terrified.

I told you fool. Look at her, she's afraid now. Now you've done it, you've lost her. Are you happy now? DAMN IT! You should have listened to me.

Without another word, Draco pointed at the door, it blew of it's hinges and sailed across the hallway and landed with a very heavy crash. He ran from the room. He needed to take another shower...it would relax him...and that's exactly what he needed now... Except for Saph.
But he felt he had already lost her.

He was indeed a fool...

Draco was standing in the refresher with his hands out in front of him on the wall. He hung his head under the water and allowed it to flow down his scared body. It felt like liquid ice on his burning hot skin, it was a relaxing, sensational experience. He shivered from a slight burning as the water coursed over his fresh cuts he had recieved over the last couple days...also relaxing. It made him feel alive. He breathed deeply through his nose when steam had reached his nostrils. He leaned his head backards to savor every refreshing breath.

He left the refresher and got dressed. He reached inside his bag and located the object in which he was searching for, a flat round holorecorder. He stood in the middle of the room with his hand out in front of him, palm up, in it was the recorder. He pressed the activation switch and immediatly, a small blue, tranparent figure appeared. It was a faleen male. The man spoke but quietly, so quiet in fact that Draco could barely hear him. A tear came to Draco's eye as he said, "I miss you old friend. I promise you, I will avenge your death..." Just then, Fenris entered the room just in time to see the man disappear.

"I sometimes...use my pheromones to attack a person where they are most vulnerable...I knew Saphira was your vulnerable weakness..." explained Fenris.

"I'm sorry...But I never insulted your family, I honestly had wished to join the Brotherhood...I figured since I had destroyed the memory chip, you owed me a favor..." said Fenris. "But then this happened...so the favor was repaid by allowing me a taste of Saphira..." said Fenris.

"I am sorry for what I did.  I just can't stop smiling.." said Fenris

"No, this is not an attempt.  I need to become the best Soldier, Warrior, Master I can be...only way I can do that is learn as many styles as I can.  Your family is a doorway to doing so." said Fenris.

He knew exuding his pheromones would only make Draco angry, so he said no. 

"I can be your fist...do things you can't for fear of expulsion of your leadership.  I am allowing you to use me.  Teach me new styles and training techniques to make me a Weapon of Fear and Power." said Fenris.

He had his face clean and calm, but in his eyes dark fire burned.

Draco stood and looked at Saphira. He was confused as to why she was angry. He wondered if he had truely chased her from him...he hoped not, he cared for, truely. He looked happy to see her. At least she came back. That was good.

"Saph, what are you talking about. You are family, you entered not only as a member, but also as a leader. There was no cruel intentions involved, I was not using you. You told me you trusted me, has that changed?"

He turned to Fenris and to him said, "If you join, you will not be used in such ways as you suggest. You will train, and you will fight. But you will be a partner...not a slave. And the Brotherhood is a life long dedication, not just a doorway to be used to gain experience and then depart. As family, we are loyal, and we stand together... United as one."

He turned to Saphira, he placed a hand on hers, "please Saph. Calm yourself."

Saph, what are you talking about. You are family, you entered not only as a member, but also as a leader. There was no cruel intentions involved, I was not using you. You told me you trusted me, has that changed?"


She wanted to say yes, if only to hurt him. But she also didn't want to at the same time. Saphira was slighty confused and yet she wanted to just be with him.

What is wrong with me?

Yea, easy answer right? She was feeling like she was actilng like a silly little school girl all bent up over something stupid.He then placed a hand on hers, "please Saph. Calm yourself."

"I am calm.."

She half-barked at him. But she didn't pull her hand away. What she wanted was to talk and be nearer to him.

Draco called after Fenris and said, "Fenris, my family was slaughtered. I'm here as ordered by the empire. I owe the empire my life, but I'm here to avenge my family. And when the empire is done with me, I will repopulate my family. Believe me when I say it is a life long dedication and that you would fit in. Your skilled enough, your eager to learn and I can sense that you would eventually become a great family member. Think about it."

He turned to Saphira and gazed into her eyes. He felt in the coldness there that she needed to talk. He sat down on his couch and pulled her down next to him. He got close to her and said, "I sense you need to talk to me. Go on, it's okay, I'm here."

Draco's words buzzed into Fenris's head.  At the moment, his training was all that mattered.  He cared not about anything but the continuation of his own training.  He had beaten HK-60 on his highest setting with Teras Kasi, he had beaten HK-60 on his medium setting with polearms, he had even beaten HK-60 with Swords.  Next was Echani style of fighting.  Hand to Hand with a droid, the ultimate test.

Fenris's mind burned as he read the styles and techniques of different forms of combat, absorbing them into his own mind, creating his own style of Polearms, Echani, Teras Kasi, and Falleen thug tactics.

He'd have to wait to put his new form to the test. 

When he would be done with melee training, he would move on to Firearms and ranged weapons.

"Verywell sergeant, will that be all?"

The fact that he was using her rank pissed her off to another degree. His words hurt and she didn't miss the slight hurt in his either.

"Draco..."

"No.. "

He started and tried to pull away from her. Saphira stood and slapped him hard across the face. Hand stinging as his head whipped to the side she waited for him to say something. Draco turned to look at her. His lower lip was now cut where her nail had taken his flesh. A hand to his lip he pulled back blood and then Saph reached out and took his hand into hers.


"You are perhaps the most stubborn male I have ever met..."

Taking her other hand she pulled up her shirt and barred her stomach to him where the mark was. Placing his hand then against her mark she looked at him seriously.


"Don' say your sorry to me.. I am not afarid of you. Everythign you are I want. Good and bad.."
