"Thank you, Detective." Atlantis told her with a faint smile, at least that was one box ticked off from their mutual list so to speak. As for the last time they had seen one another, yes that was precisely that time. While perhaps Nazani had not fully gotten over what had happened that night with everything that had transpired, he could not help but to wonder if she had come to terms with had happened to her personally that night, not just with the loss of her former partner, but also some officers, while they did lose two Jedi too, Atlantis at first had definitely been in rage about the loss of a dear friend of his, while he didn't know the other Jedi as well as he knew Serrin, it had been a blow to him but over time he had come to terms with it, and even saw Lyov's progress and had been on his path of redemption.
Today it definitely showed Atlantis that.
He had stopped being suspicious a long time ago, and no longer bore ill will to the Epicanthix. Plus the AI that had been integrated into the Academy also gave him a sense of closure.
Lifting his hand to let her know that she did not need to look apologetic, at all, he had offered the MO's assistance, and willingly too. Atlantis frowned in confusion at first when Nazani referred to Ayodele as it then corrected herself but then his frown grew even deeper about where her body was found but also the cause of her death. He opened his mouth briefly looking confused at the way she had been killed, because that was the whole point there, her body was found in the Mountains and she was shot at the back of her head. Shaking his head, and looking genuinely surprised even moreso when he was told that she was Anzat.
"For having spent some time with her back then, I have never felt any belligerent emotion or even any suspicious behavior from her." Atlantis said truthfully before glancing at Mace, to confirm what she was saying about Franz. "Further than that, Crystal, Lily, and Elika also spent some time with her, she had been invited to a pool party at the residence the Chief Financial Officer, Attorney General, and Master Architect share. And if there is one thing I know about those three women, they know how to read people and are good judges of character." Scratching the back of his head and sighing, mostly before he knew that most probably it would be a blow to his cousin, it's not that they were close, at least they were getting there, and Franz was genuinely worried about her disappearance. "You reckon it was someone seeking revenge, as that execution style definitely sounds personal to me..."
And like Mace said he had not heard anyone being drained of their life Force here on this planet, and who better than the Kiffars would know since they were very protective of Mace too in general, especially when it came to an Anzat or Anzati in general...

"You are very welcome, Miss Master Architect." Atlantis replied with a smile as he proceeded to get settled into the recessed area next to his girlfriend and just wrapping his arm around her. He inclined his head as a thanks for the glass that Elika had brought back for him, and poured some wine into it, lifting his glass to toast her once more. Taking a sip while listening to the exchange between Crystal and Elika, Atlantis was definitely happy for Elika, and it certainly sounded like a massive project. The raceways, those definitely were out of commission, and for a while now.
Looking at Crystal and nodding briefly, he pecked her lips and tilted his head on the side. "Yes, gave some classes, also told the kids that unfortunately you might not show up for a bit there, which bummed them a bit, particularly Nickala because he absolutely loves the food you cook for them. Though I did say that you'll probably go to the Academy again, and maybe you'll be coming in with maybe Elika, and even Lily." He told her chuckling, his reaction was the best too, "They are looking forward to that, because they know that Elika designed the Academy, and they also know that Lily is with your brother who they absolutely love having there because they get to play limmie with him."
That had been more or less his day, classes, and just guiding the students always, further than that, nothing special, at least nothing compared to what happened here at least. Finishing his wine, and looking at Elika who theatrically yawned, Atlantis said nothing at all, and in the corner of his mind, well probably for the best that Lily was no longer here, or the attorney might have said something.
"Yes, you'll see us tomorrow, have a goodnight both." Atlantis said smiling, before looking at how casually they seem to depart, he chuckled under his breath and looked at Crystal reigning in his emotions. "Shall we?" Atlantis asked as he picked up all of the glasses to take them to the kitchen once he knew that the coast was clear there and joined Crystal into her room who had updated him about everything that occurred pertaining Lana, and the Hapes situation, but also Elika's promotion, and everything else that had transpired throughout the day until they were no longer talking...
The next morning, Atlantis had been in the workout room with Crystal and doing some sparring, or he was being the live human punching bag, he kept parrying and dodging her punches or even her kicks until he found himself locked and pushed against the wall with a loud thud against it. "Ow...!" Tapping the wall for a surrender, Atlantis laughed before being released and tilting his head from side to side. "I'd like not to be black and blue, please." Not that he was, but it sometimes did happen when she'd land a punch, and that was often. Thankfully today, he came out of this fine, and he just picked up the towel to wipe away his sweat before walking out of the work out room wearing sweats and a t-shirt.
Walking into the kitchen he found Elika there "No, no, noooooo!" He said jokingly as he pointed to the caf being brewed. "You got there first." He smiled and placed his towel around his neck before pointing at his girlfriend who was right behind him. "She won." Opening the cabinet and grabbing some mugs, at least six of them, though for the time being he pushed aside two of them. He took the creamer and the sugar for Elika and poured the freshly brewed caf into their mugs. "And good morning to you by the way."

Front Entrance Hall
Seeing Mace's answer, or body language from his question about having been to Hapes in the past, Atlantis focused his attention at Ayla who was filling him in about Hapes, so to speak. Well, he definitely needed a course on Hapes 101 then so he would relatively be prepared when he stepped onto the planet. "I see." Was it even a good idea that he and brother were going to head there despite that cultural difference at least. But Andros had spoken last night, and had roped him in, plus with all the details he had gotten from Crystal when they were alone he understood fully why. Delaana Wan had an oath that was bounding her to the Queen Mother, and despite that, it had turned out that Elika had decided to go with her girlfriend, which prompted Lily but also Crystal to go with her.
Plus apparently Lana's brother was affected too, as he also had the same oath as his sister.
Thanking Ayla but also Mace, he was certain too that it wouldn't be a problem for Franz, but before they could even get there, Ayla had taken her leave as Nazani and her newest partner it seemed made their way in the Academy. Placing his hand on his cousin's shoulder, Atlantis nodded towards the Gardens. "Gardens." He said before looking at Detective Kallas with a faint smile. Atlantis knew that a while back his cousin had gone to the authorities to report Ayodele missing since Franz didn't know what had happened, and didn't exactly know much from memories, but all in all, Atlantis figured it would be about that matter. So when Franz led Detective Kallas towards the gardens, he looked at Nazani with a faint smile.
"About my cousin's missing person situation, I am assuming?" He told the Lorrdian woman before closing his eyes briefly. It's not that he did want to know the details, it was just that he actually didn't want to know about it, as at the same time he had a bad feeling about it. He figured in time he would know, for now he wouldn't be pressing for any answers by asking any questions that went in that direction. Instead. "I actually wanted to contact you about that stolen mask from that perp. You won't find that mask anymore." He explained as he gestured to what was being repaired around the Academy. "That caused all of this, unfortunately though, Lavigne escaped again as we were busy" Gesturing to himself and Mace, he did not need to mention Lyov right this instant, and he certainly still kept a cool calm and collected demeanor. "With Darksiders outside of the city in a villa to where the Er'kit led us to. So if you come across a report certain names like Nerses, Vasilisa, and Jirair come up, just put it under Mist Order's jurisdiction, I'll send a detail of all that to UPD." Atlantis didn't know if it was Nazani handling all of those, but Atlantis did know that the MO and UPD had an agreement in sharing information, or details when necessary. Plus it was also the reason why they had access to Lavigne's dealings, or at least Aidan did.
That aside though, Atlantis smiled, and he had actually forgotten his manners. "It's good to see you, and I wished you had come in here under better circumstances too. I know your new partner will fill in Franz, but can we also assist you for anything?"

There were moments in a certain situation where people were just dumbfounded, in this case it was Atlantis and he was looking at his girlfriend when she informed him that they were going to Hapes, and that was because of Lana who was a Hapan Royal Guard, and she had been recalled for the Queen Mother, and then there was his very own brother who just went ahead and said that he and Atlantis were going because Major Wan was meant to be here with the Master Architect. "Uh... Okay..." Atlantis finally replied after a pause when he had been filled in so to speak. It not like he didn't have a choice, and be trusted that Crystal would fill in him, he did notice that from her expression.
But!
Actually, that but would have to come later, as his brother was taking his leave. Atlantis inclined his head to let his brother know that he would also come to Hapes definitely, from the gist of it all since it concerned Major Wan who was high ranked with the Chume-something had been ordered, he guessed to return to her homeworld. He wasn't even aware that she was a Hapan Royal Guard, and he definitely did not know what all of things meant, but what he did know was that he certainly needed to support Elika, Master Architect now, and her girlfriend.
After Andros had taken his leave, and Elika joining them at the recess area, Atlantis looked at her when asked if he needed anything, but instead of saying something first, he put up his hands in a letter Tee formation. "Time out, please." He requested with a grin before looking at her as he dropped his hands down. "Miss Master Architect." He emphasized that title because that was new. "This is the part where I am supposed to say congratulations, right?" Looking at both Crystal and Lana for confirmation since they were both much more aware of this fact, and he had entered in a territory that seemed foreign to him only not really. Getting a confirmation from either Lana and Crystal, Atlantis looked at Elika with a happy smile. "Congratulations!" He repeated with more certainty and a smile but he supposed that Hapes thing and everything that went with it might have a sour note on that promotion. Though he figured it's a government thing which was why he gestured to all of the women here who were technically all government employees, only Lana had to go back to Hapes.
"You know what, I am sure I'll find out soon, so, not even going to ask further questions and just answer yours." He told Elika grinning. "Only if you are all joining me for another glass, otherwise, nope thank you."

Lakehouse
Getting into the lakehouse after having spent the day at the Academy, teaching and just guiding the students there, Atlantis a few times felt some fluctuating emotions coming from here, but he had been tied up that he couldn't pull away right that moment before. Though now he was certainly glad that the general atmosphere seemed to be appeased, and not wanting to interrupt their ongoing talks, Atlantis stood by the sliding door just after he had noticed that Lily and Ryan had gone off...
Shutting down all of his senses, he had deposited his gears into Crystal's room and was just watching peacefully the ongoing outside with his arms crossed.
Walking over to where Crystal was sitting, he stood behind her and kissed the top of her head affectionately as he noticed that Lana was in the recess spot with Crystal while his brother and Elika both had their feet into the pool.
"You know, I think you are owed a pool party once again, Elika." He told her with a smile, after all she probably needed some relaxation, although he definitely had no idea what had transpired this very day, or that Hapes was going to be a thing, but he supposed that he would soon find out.
Nonetheless he did greet them all by saying "Evening, seems like I have missed a few things today." Gesturing to the wine glasses, and the snacks plus also the relaxed atmosphere.

Atlantis had walked down towards the entrance hall of the Academy, and he even had seen Mahela as he was making his way towards his cousin and the Vos cousins. He had nodded to the Togruta to let her know indeed she was up there in her room, but he said nothing more, he figured that Saoirse and everyone in the room would fill her in on what happened.
"She did." Replying to Franz's question about Nerses' demise against Mace back at the villa outside of the city. Although that was a story for another time he supposed, one that he would be happy to fill in Franz later on, after all when it came to update one another, they always did one way or the other, it was less complicated when it came to the Kiffar cousins in essence due to their innate ability to read people's mind when able. Even so that was not a known fact to the students at all.
"Anyways, I wanted to tell you all something." Now that his mind was probably more at ease and just he could just reorder his thoughts the best ways he could, not that Mace or Ayla would even be reading his mind in this instance as truthfully they often did not unless they were given a sign, and thus, he'd fill them in all. "I don't suppose any of you have any dealings with Hapes in the past, right?" Atlantis asked dubiously, maybe they did, maybe they did not, it was worth a shot in asking, but fact remained last night, there had been a situation that involved Delaana Wan, Crystal's PA who was not just Hapan, and was actually more than that.
"I may head out to Hapes with them. As it turned out that Lana is actually a Chume something... Chume'doro. And apparently she had been recalled by the Queen Mother of the Hapes Consortium." He explained thoughtfully, no doubt that he didn't need to spell it out further, at least he didn't think he needed to. Lana was with Elika, and considering that Crystal and Lily were close friends to the Architect and they always supported one another, that was a given on why they would go. "So I need to know if the three of you would be okay in just helming the Academy for a bit?" At the same time though, he knew that he needed to be there for Saoirse, but at the same time, he wanted to be there for Elika, maybe he could take Saoirse with him? At least that would be a welcoming change after everything she went through...
He supposed he would have to see, though for now he knew he had to think about a few things as he clearly did not want to just leave without warning the Councilors here, his trusted friends, the one he called family too...

Hallway Outside of Student Rooms
Chuckling at 53RR-1N's confession, Atlantis supposed he shouldn't be surprised, he did remember her leading Corellia's Academy, and at the same time he also remembered all of the students being there, and also under her watch guiding them, much like what he and the others in the MO were doing. He guessed from afar the students thought that all, or he knew what he was doing, and was just perhaps guiding them in perhaps mysterious ways. Though perhaps now that some of the students were aware now the reason why Atlantis and the others often, if not often knew everything that had been happening at the Academy. It was also mainly thanks to the AI he was currently talking to along with their other means in knowing things.
Individually, each Councilors of the Mist Orders were good, but brought in together, they were stronger.
Nodding faintly, but also in agreement to what the AI had said about Crystal, who was definitely strong in the Force, and in Ashla's way, when she called for Her help, Atlantis knew she had her reasons, and like 53RR-1N said, all in due time, it'll happen when she was ready. Smiling genuinely when it mentioned Lyov being one of the finest student it had the honor in teaching, Atlantis was not surprised at all. Despite their past history, Atlantis did give Lyov a choice, and the Epicanthix had accepted to pay the price, and now he was embracing Ashla's ways, plus it definitely helped if he was constantly reminded that he belonged here. While indeed, Atlantis had not approached him when Lyov had been here, and had only ever spoken to him today again, Atlantis was definitely looking forward in seeing his accomplishments, and then some.
"Hmm figured they would be." Atlantis said with a knowing tone and smile as 53RR-1N disappeared in view before Lyov and the students saw it. Pushing away from the wall, Atlantis looked at them all with a placid smile that said that he was glad that they were all here. Focusing his attention on Lyov, Atlantis responded to his question reassuringly. "Physically, just a few scrapes, and bruises, just minor injuries that did not warrant her to be put in a bacta tank." There was that, he did get her checked out, at least physically and had instructed the droids to put her into new clothes. "Emotionally and mentally, that has yet to be seen." Atlantis gave him a knowing look, after all both of them were also in her mind, so Atlantis knew that he didn't need to say more about that. "I do believe however with the support of her friends, and everyone that care about her, she will recover, we just need to be patient and understanding to what she has gone through." Who better also than Lyov would know that also which was why he looked at the Epicanthix with a knowing smile as Aidan seemed to have paused at the door with Bria and Veda. Before Atlantis could tell them that they were free to go in and just sit with her, and perhaps it would help that when she wakes up, Saoirse would have familiar faces around her, his attention was caught by Lyov when the Epicanthix was handing him back the lightsaber that had been loaned to him.
Lifting his hand in a way to let Lyov know that it was unnecessary, but understanding that he felt the need to do so, taking his lightsaber hilt again and clipping it to his belt, Atlantis placed his hand on Lyov's biceps looking at him. "My friend, I know you and I have had a rocky start, but please know that the trust I do have for you remains, and I do know that you will do right for yourself as well. I believe that." Giving the man's arm a slight squeeze, Atlantis inclined his head and looked at the door leading to Saoirse's room, "She might still be out of it, but it'll be nice for her to see familiar faces who care about her when she wakes up. Just be gentle with her. Go on." He told them all with a grin before looking ahead of him. "I'll be checking on a few things around the Academy, to see type of damages to the structure my dearest cousin has inflicted. I'll come around later to see her potentially..."
Inclining his head respectfully to them all, and also thanking them for their help as well, Atlantis set off to find the Councilors to talk with them about a situation that he had been made aware of recently, last night, that concerned Hapes...

Hallway Outside of Student Rooms
"Sounds about right." Atlantis chuckled about the toast in question, metaphorically speaking, for them it was synonymous to homework, and often times also could be substituted for a cure-all, and the Force knew they probably needed a cure all right now with everything that had transpired. But he was just thankful that no one had been physically hurt, although he was indeed concerned for Saoirse, being possessed by a dark spirit. He saw the mental and emotional damage. It was going to be tough, but he'd be there like he had told her.
"Ah, you know." Atlantis first shrugged, though he knew he didn't need to withhold anything from her, it was just so easy to talk to the AI there before him, it was in essence her truly. "Actually, I take it back, sometimes I don't even know if I am doing it right, but I do believe in the teachings, and I also do believe that things do happen for a reason, like our encounter." He smiled and even stopped walking as he leaned against the wall just looking at her. "I do accept it." At least that was a fact, though he was certain that she was quite aware about his uncertainty of being the Grandmaster of the Mist Order, not truly a position he had asked for, but something he had been put upon, one way or the other.
But that was still his things to come to term with, and he supposed that after today, he knew that he had to keep it together too, which he would, that was no problem. "On a happy note though, Elika is back. As you know she has been missing for three years, so that is one less worry to think about, also for Crystal and everyone else." He informed 553RR-1N with a grin, "And before you ask, yes they are fine, and Crystal too in particular, although she is still not ready to reveal, you know..." The Master Jedi the AI was based on had trained for a bit Crystal when her sensitivity had been revealed, but still his girlfriend did not reveal that fact about her at all, which he respected definitely, but what were they going to do? It was her choice, one that he respected through and through.
"Also I believe that Lyov has found something with a little guidance earlier from Mace when she suggested that he and I go join Ayla into Saoirse's mind to get rid of that dark presence. So thank you for teaching him Ashla's way too." Atlantis wouldn't be surprised if Lyov accepted it more fully now, especially after that Wall of Light and the combination of all of the students at the Academy when Saoirse called upon their help. "I am also sure that Lyov might turn out to be a big help in her recovery too." Atlantis gestured towards Saoirse's room. "Along with her friends, left a message to her bestie, and I am sure that Aidan, Bria, and even Veda will want to check up on her too..."

Saoirse's room
After Atlantis had taken over Forcias when he had reached the dining hall, he had brought Saoirse to the medbay to get her checked out. No apparent serious injuries just a few scratches here and there what would heal on their own. The droids had changed her into new clothes, comfortable ones and he was ordered by the meddroid to let the Zabrak rest, but Atlantis mentioned that he would into the comfort of her own bed.
Which was the reason after accessing her room, since he had that ability to do so, being the Grandmaster of the Mist Order, Atlantis slowly and securely deposited her onto her bed to let her sleep and get some rest there. He had even taken his datapad to contact her friend to let Mahela know that Saoirse had been in a situation, but she was fine now and resting, and would probably need the Togruta as well when she woke up, and it would be nice if she had a familiar face to wake up to indeed, at least.
Outside of the room
Finally walking out of Saoirse's room, Atlantis breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the camera knowing that the very familiar AI was watching and even listening. "You know, I have never thanked you enough. Even now you still keep watching over us. One of these days, you'll have to tell me how is it that I have been fortunate to have crossed your path a long time ago..." Atlantis smiled, clearly remembering the first time they did meet, it was on this planet, and she always seemed to be there when they needed it the most.
Plus he had to admit, they also had that inside joke of theirs that came up on Corellia when he had visited and then asked to accompany her and the Republic's Vice-Governor back then back on Roon due to an affair that was Tarkin related, and Adulph too, his nephew. "For old time's sake, I might have some toast this evening..." Atlantis chuckled at the thought as he made his way around the Academy to just tour it and check on the Younglings, Initiates, and Padawans alike, and actually about some of the Padawans, a thought had occurred to him...

The End of the Tunnel — Conclusion
Seeing the statue moving gave him
that indication that Saoirse
was indeed heeding all of their
words here in her mind, Atlantis
knew that this would work.
He had been placidly
staring at the statue, and
didn't even care any more
for that spider which seemed
to keep wanting to harm them.
He just stayed motionless
and then his head turned
with his body when the one Ayla
had been focused on from the start...
He wasn't surprised.
However Atlantis did smile and
incline his head when Saoirse
requested their help.
It was why they were here for,
and also probably why it was
Ayla and not Mace currently present.
He had always been in awe
at how the Kiffars worked,
especially the Vos cousins,
it was as if they knew,
then again it had been a while
since he stopped questioning that.
In the end, it just worked one way or the other.
"We are with you..." He reiterated,
though he was pretty sure
that he didn't need to say that,
but when she came to stand
next to him, Atlantis did place
a hand on her shoulder and
gave it a squeeze to let her know
that she had his unconditional support,
always and no matter what.
Focusing on the task at hand,
with Ayla's guidance for Saoirse,
Atlantis could just feel how seemingly
and easily she was gathering the
strength she needed, he might have
been outside of the Academy,
but still with him in her mind,
he let her take on every bit of his
strength to dispel Dragnea from her mind.
Sensing that everyone,
who were aware of Saoirse's struggles,
were reaching out to the Force and
giving in their help, Atlantis could
only look at the spider who turned
into Vladislay Dragnea be trapped
in that Wall of Light, and
then it was over...
Blinded by the light, Atlantis
closed his eyes briefly
and felt that Saoirse was slipping,
before he could catch her...
Atlantis had been thrown out of her mind, due to her exhaustion from the Wall of Light that Ayla guided her to perform. Opening his eyes and blinking a few times they had finally done it, she had done it. And that actually made him smile, a smile that he gave Lyov before nodding in appreciation for the assistance. "Thank you." Atlantis said, and perhaps the Epicanthix might have felt that he had done nothing, but for Atlantis, he had done plenty, and that was just perfectly fine with him. He knew that Lyov was willing to redeem himself, and today further proved that, and for that, Lyov would eternally have Atlantis' respect.
Glancing over the Kiffar cousins with an amused grin, "Gotta admit that was one bumpy ride to begin with, but thank you for guiding her in doing all of that." Taking both of his lightsabers that were sitting before him, Atlantis placed those back to his forearms before standing up even if he was told to rest. "Later. I need to check up on her." Atlantis made sure that he was just fine right now, he could still walk, but then he rushed towards the Academy's interior, actually not caring for the damages that had occurred, he just wanted to see that everyone was alright, but mostly his thoughts were turned towards Saoirse...

Atlantis' eyes popped wide open
when he noticed the spider pinning
Lyov down before aiming the stinger
towards Ayla, picking up the dolls
and aiming those towards
the said stinger to block it,
Atlantis jumped at the thorax
of the spider and started
stomping on it with the real belief
that his friends were in danger.
Proceeding to stab the eyes
of the spider with his bare fingers,
Atlantis heard Ayla's voice again
which made him stop stabbing and also
made him look at the Kiffar.
What... Snapping out of it,
it seemed like Atlantis slowly
went through the said spider
as he realized that Ayla
was unharmed, and that
they were just visitors here.
There was probably that fact
where his default mode was
to protect that made him believe
that this was all true, the spider,
and the webs, Atlantis shook his head
and walked towards the Saoirse statue.
He saw her eyes open,
and just looked
at her with determination.
"I'm with you, I'll always be
with you, no matter what..."
He told her, hoping that
she did know that,
and hoping also that
she would heed
Ayla's instructions.
It all made sense
to him currently,
they had slipped
through her mind easily
at first, probably because
Dragnea had been busy,
but they were still in
Saoirse's mind and what
Ayla said to bring the
battle here, it probably did
not mean a physical one,
but a mental one.
"You can do it,
I know you can.
Just believe that you
also can." He told her
with that same determined
expression. "Use us as a conduit too."

Smiling mischievously the moment Vasilisa noticed the Vulptex mask make his way towards where she was, she was glad that he had escape from there, and just couldn't wait but to get out of here...
Completely unaware, but also not having sensed anyone relatively close to their vicinity, Vasilisa's eyes popped wide open when someone seemed to have appeared from the mist and threw a punch in Dragnea's direction before she was pushed away further from the broken open window.
Scrambling to her feet and sneering, so there were three of them. But she felt absolutely nothing from them at all. Unable to help herself, she sent out a Force scream at the Kiffar that was blocking her way.

Jumping back and looking at disdain towards to AI controlled droids, Vasilisa called upon the Force and focused on their leg area pushing them back hopefully and make them slam their faces on the ground, completely unaware of what is happening outside, though hearing the voice of that mystery Jedi that she had unaccounted for, she started to rush towards the exit of the dining hall only to be stopped when she felt the grounds shaking...

Entrance Hall
With those two droids before her, and unarmed Vasilisa backed away to be brought towards the dining hall...Grounds
Hearing his name being spoken by the older Saoirse version that seemed to be corrupted, Atlantis looked at the Zabrak tilting his head briefly on the side before asking. "Probably not, indeed. But would you have truly held that against me. I would understand if you resented me for not trying, but I am here now." He told her placidly, in his mind, that version, that older version was all that could be if they did not pull Saoirse out of this, or if they had not pulled her out, and helped her in coming to terms with all of this.
But first they definitely had to figure out how to make Saoirse repossess her own body. The more he looked. Younger, present, older, they were all in different situation. The one he was talking to was the younger version of herself, the innocent one, then there was that one in that crossroad over in the box filled water, then there was that older version that had fully succumbed to the Dark Side of the Force.
Smiling and looking at the Fox that was held by the younger version of Saoirse. Standing up to his full height and avoid the webs on the ground, Atlantis looked at the young Saoirse which one he would want to be, that is a good question and at the same time well... "I wished I could only pick one, but..." Atlantis looked at his surroundings again and looked at Lyov. "We are all ruled by emotions. So I would probably choose all of them because those are all part of her. Choices make us who we are... And what she decides now could very well bring something great out of her. I would know, I have witnessed it often times..."
Inclining his head upon hearing Ayla's words, Atlantis wasn't quite aware what was going on outside of here, and did not know how much time had passed, but no matter what, what he believed and what he felt, whomever was possessing her needed to be eradicated from here... Since Lyov was closest to the statue, Atlantis nodded before looking up at the spider as he clenched his fists to be prepared.

Entrance Hall
Vasilisa just like Dragnea had began cutting through the vines, or even the trees that were surging up in their path, and fortunately for her, the filters in her mask also shielded her too from the gas that had been dispersing into the mists. Unfortunately though...
With being distracted by the battle droids that had walked up to her, Vasilisa had been jumping around in her Ataru form to counter them and dispose of them, and thinking that they could at least now carry on into the entrance where all the other students seemed to be gathered for safety, Vasilisa heard the voice that seemed to be echoing into the mists, unable to find its source and noticing that the Twi'lek, Dragnea was controlling, seemed to have fallen, Vasilisa really started to come to realize that their plans wouldn't work.
She started to realize also why Lyov probably turned his back on the Order. The Jedi on this planet weren't just any Jedi...
Despite the changing tide, Vasilisa did not see that kick coming, her lightsaber flying up before she had been pulled back from the stairways, seemingly farther from their objective now. Plus whomever that Jedi was inside, Vasilisa knew that she couldn't underestimate him at all. Unfortunately again for her with no other corpse to control, all of them seemed to be falling one by one outside too...
And that was when dread started to over take her unfortunately.
Academy Grounds
Arriving into the Academy Grounds with Lyov, Atlantis looked at the scene around them as those zombies seemed to be coming from every direction but it seemed like their numbers were dwindling. "No respect for the dead, seriously." Atlantis muttered under his breath as he pulled out both of his lightsabers, the black and yellow hued ones and activated them as he chopped the ones that had been rushing towards him...
Looking towards Mace, and then focusing his attention onto her cousin, Atlantis took a deep breath and looked at Lyov with a faint grin. "You heard her, unless you are not comfortable with it?" Atlantis asked genuinely in fact, as going into someone's mind, as anyone would expect, could be a tricky situation, and with Saoirse being possessed by what seemed like a powerful spirit it might trigger Lyov's past but also sense of guilt. "I'll bring her back, but it would be nice to have another ally, and friend along the ride, you will probably see something I do not." Atlantis left it all in Lyov's hands, after all yes despite their past history, there was nothing that Atlantis had not enforced, he had given the Epicanthix a choice that night, five years ago, and today, it wasn't going to change, Atlantis still gave him a choice, and no matter what, he would respect that.
Sitting down next to Ayla, after deactivating his lightsabers, Atlantis placed the hilts before him and closed his eyes to concentrate at first onto Ayla who was deeply into Saoirse's mind. It wasn't that difficult for him to find that proverbial thread, as he had been transported into where Ayla was currently...
Hearing the Kiffar's last words, Atlantis did not care where he found himself right now, he just wanted the Zabrak to regain control. "I would listen to her." Atlantis said with a knowing smile before looking at the smaller Saoirse and getting on his knees, "Hey you, whatcha got there in your hands?" He asked pointing at the toy.

Whichever Zombies that got through the entrance, Vasilisa knew that those were the only ones they could count on now, and hopefully more corpse would reveal themselves as they carry forward, but all of a sudden she felt a presence that she had not felt before and turned to look behind her as she felt the grounds tremble beneath them, all of a sudden trees, branches, even vines started to block their way too as the padawans handled the droids, Vasilisa turned to look and noticed that a blue hue was slicing through in the darkness.
“AARGHHHHHHHH!” Vasilisa yelled out in pure annoyance, what she had thought that this would just be easy, it was going all wrong. Looking at the Twi’lek that was controlled by Dragnea, Vasilisa thought of something sinister.
“What if…” Before she could go on, she felt another presence that was also strong in the lightside of the Force just like the one who was here not so long ago but has disappeared now. Vasilisa snarled and commanded the zombies outside of the Academy to attack anyone and everyone that was in their eyesight.
“They are cleverer than what I would have expected…” Literally at a loss for words, it was then and there that she had felt Nerses and Jirair falling far away from here, and Lyov was still of this world. “Nerses and Jirair failed!”
And she truly had no idea what was coming next with the other Kiffar outside of the Academy and was also protected against the zombie hoards.
