<em>Pink flowers moved lazily through the air.  A stream of petals moving around and above the trio of lovers tangled beneath.  Everett Duskwalker found himself in the midst of what promised to be a good dream.  Head lay nestled in the lap of a nude beauty while lower on his body another worked the magic of her mouth.  Sweet fruits were being teased against his lips while he felt the sensations of coming release start to well up in his body.  Already hands were pressing him down so that the second could begin her ministrations instead of simply feeding.  Yet when his bare back found the earth there was cold rock against his flesh.  Above him the pink petals ceased to swirl as only a withered tree was to be found.  Both women lay against him, bodies long since becoming lifeless.  <br/><br/><strong><strong>Did you tell them you would leave them?  Did you tell them you were a coward?</strong></strong><br/><br/>Bird chirped and sang their songs.  Young lovers walked across a small bridge over a lazy stream.  Petals hung in the air, suspended in flight by the twisting winds.  A soft hand grasped his own, teasing at him while a beauty full of vigor smiled at him.  Another nameless face.  She laughed at something he said, something he wasn’t sure he said.  Was he flirting with her or her with him?  She leaned in for a kiss and he found only ash on his lips.  Around him the earth was baked hard and dry.  Small skeletons hung from dead trees.<br/><br/><strong>They will all leave you too.  We could have been forever. </strong> <br/><br/>Twisted sheets of silk moved over his nude body.  A laughing beauty worked over his body.  Giggle and teasing, flirtations of the flesh worked upward to his chest.  Eager fingers eased back the sheets to find a familiar face staring up at him.  She was a twi’lek.  She was Ran.  She was a woman long since gone.  He watched those eyes focus on him, bore into him with singular resolve.  Was she waiting for him to say something, to do something, to do anything?  She never spoke, only withered.  Those eyes became sunken and her face etched with lines of sadness.  Teeth shriveled and sunk into her face.  The woman’s skin crawled from her face until she was nothing but bones and then dust.<br/><br/><strong>I waited…..I waited and you never came.  You will never be alone now.  I will always be with you.</strong><br/><br/>Cold sweat came over his body as he stared upward now from beneath a water’s surface.  The nude figure of Ran swam past him.  He could not touch her though, could not embrace her.  Words became muffled screams from his lips.  She swam past him but never far from him.  He would always be just out of reach as would she. <br/></em><br/><br/>The water receded from his body.  He could feel his fingers first and then his hands.  Muscles twitched and flexed unconsciously as he found the will to move creeping upon him.  Eyes opened to look on a bleak ceiling that flickered with a rhythmic light.  Somewhere a roar could be heard and then felt.  The very earth shuddering beneath the sound that now came down to a siren’s wail.  A familiar item itched for his palm and his saber was there.<br/><br/>Everett Duskwalker found himself cast anew into the world of temptation so that he might hunt down those that did what he could not embrace.<br/>
