I can't stop thinking about Dasha.
When Dasha died, I wasn't satisfied with that. I wanted to kill her over again. I wanted to make her suffer. Even though justice had been served, I still wanted revenge. I even resented the thought of putting her blood in my veins to be cured of the blackwing she unleashed upon us. I hated her. Many of our loyal service-men died in the attack.. So many more suffered from the blackwing.. Many of my closest friends have been tortured at her hands.. The sanctuary that once was has been crumbled to the ground from her strike.. The nearby settlement has been shadowed, now, by the looming threat of danger.
Then I met this girl. I didn't even put two and two together at first, even though all the signs were there. She came from nowhere. She said she felt she knew me in a past life. She was young, but not too young... and she was haunted by dreams of Dasha. When Stlian and I found her on Talus, she was looking for "Buir" which we later learned was the mandalorian word for Parent. This Buir was supposedly on Corellia, but the girl had been taken to Talus. Her connection to Dasha, and apperant Force Sensitivity made it dangerous to travel with her. A signal was sent out through Flynt's surveylance systems to be on the lookout for anyone matching the Buir's description. Meanwhile, Stlian and I watched over her at the garden house.
How damned blind I was! Not blind in the eyes, as I am, but blind in the head. The girl's name was even Dasha! She had said something of waking up in a lab, and running away, feeling "Dasha" was the only right name to call herself. Still, I never saw Dasha. I saw a girl.. an innocent girl.. a girl who had even been told by her beloved Buir that she was a monster. It was that girl whom, no matter how much I feared her being consumed by Dasha, I couldn't kill. It was that girl whom Stlian and I intended to defend with our own lives. It was that girl whom I even grew to love. That girl and the Dasha I hated, and still hate, could not be the same.
*She's silent for a moment before she continues, replaying the events of those days in her head*
Then, when they came looking for her, we found out the truth. She'd been grown as a clone of Dasha, and though her memories were not yet fully restored, they were coming to finish the job. We fought. We all fought. Stlian came close to death- technically dying for a short time before help arrived. Dasha and I were able to get away, but trouble followed us.. or we fled into the heart of trouble. I should have listened to her when she said "they're here", and my mistake cost us dearly. They overpowered us both, and took the girl.. Stlian's brother, Falcun, was able to rescue me and him, but it was too late for Young Dasha. Sayon found Stlian and I at the safe house, and was able to heal us both. We were safe, but we could only wonder where Dasha was.
She's alive out there, somewhere, but God knows what they've done with her. The last I've known of her came from a dream- she was suspended in a tank, in some kind of lab, calling to me for help. When I woke up, we went to the place I saw, only to find the security and the scientist cut down by a lightsaber. The lab? Trashed. The trail? Cold. I've been trying to contact her through the force, but with no success. It's like she's disappeared..
