Romans & histoires Phantom Menace Jedi Council

I asked, my tone measured. The council exchanged guarded glances, a silent communication that hinted at concealed truths. The alpha who had initially questioned me hesitated before responding. "Augustus, our decisions must prioritize the welfare of our kind. Your plan, while ambitious, requires meticulous consideration." I left the council chambers with a sense of urgency, the need for answers burning within me. The subtle resistance within the council hinted at a hidden alliance, a force working against my ambitions. Unraveling the threads connecting Nate to the council's deliberations became my paramount objective.

She shut her eyes and rested a hand over her chest. "I'm counting on you then." Jayce told her. He glanced up at Dante who looked off as he listened to Willow's words. "You." Dante's eyes flickered to him. "I want you to join us." He gestured to himself and Aiden. "Not to use your charming abilities, but as another member of the council..." He paused. Jax was dead. Janice was dead. Only he and Dante were left on the council. "Very well." Dante agreed. He seemed to read Jayce's thoughts. "I think that is indeed necessary."

He looked at the direction of the crater where his father sat guarding the door. "I stay," Leo said. "We all stay." THE COUNCIL OF RUINS That evening, as the sun set over the flooded Mall, we held a council. No tables. No maps. Just us, sitting around a fire built in the middle of Pennsylvania Avenue. Me. Damian. Leo. Kai. Silas. Captain Vance. Maya. "Ironwood is dead," Vance said, poking the fire with a stick. "The Council is decapitated.

Lance growled, walking out of the office and slamming the door. Dante exhaled, releasing his clenched fist. He hoped Jace would be back soon because if Lance didn't back off and mind his own business soon he was seriously thinking about letting Noah at him. I’m struggling. Jaime is a quick learner and has the strength but there's something about Lyla. The women here are still so fearful and I get it. With Nora gone it's hard to encourage them and keep them going. There's a handful of men who are still being assholes. Asher is doing a great job though. How long is the council staying? That can't be good. Sarah replied back through mindlink.

"The Council has been consolidating power for years. Anyone who challenges them ends up dead or destroyed." "Until now." Jolie stands, moonfire blazing bright enough to cast shadows. "They're threatening my father. Threatening innocent wolves. Using fear as a weapon and that ends tonight." "You can't fight the entire Council." Gio looks at her like she's lost her mind. "Watch me." Her smile is dangerous. "I'm Luna's vessel. I can make every Council member feel the weight of every cruel decision they've ever made. And unlike you, they won't get help processing it. They'll just drown."

“Then we make sure there isn’t a next time.” He laughs, wet and broken. “You’re impossible.” “You keep saying that.” “Because it’s true.” We lie there, breathing, bleeding, holding on. Then the radio crackles from the chapel miles away. PROFESSOR THANE Thane’s voice is ice over the open channel. “New orders from the council. Bring the hybrid alive. The vampire is to be terminated on sight. No exceptions. No hesitation.” Jared’s voice comes back, hoarse. “She won’t leave him, sir.”

nFor the first time since this conversation started, JJ actually looked serious. “You want them to believe you betrayed Jayden.” “Yes.” JJ studied my face carefully. “You do realize that once you cross that line there is no going back.” “I’m aware.” “The Council doesn’t forgive traitors.” “I’m aware of that too.” He leaned back slowly, clearly thinking through the implications. The Supreme Council was not a group you played games with.nThey controlled every creatures politics across multiple territories.nThey also had one very clear opinion about Jayden. They wanted him dead.

I suggested. "I will request that. But that fucking Grant was so hard to deal with. He was different from Alpha Marco, and the fact his son seems to be associated with Maddox will not make it easier for us." Uncle Jake told us. "They shouldn’t be biased. They are the fucking Council!" Jace growled. "Exactly. They are the Council. They do as they please." We didn’t stay long at the border. They let the car pass as soon as we reached them, and we were already driving into the neutral forest when Alpha Jace spoke again after checking his phone.

Including Darius. The silence that followed was deafening. "Well," Elder Moira said finally. "That was uncomfortable." "The council is dismissed," Darius said. "Except you, Phantom. And Cade. We need to discuss operational details." The elders filed out, shooting curious glances between us. Elder Thorne looked particularly displeased. When the door closed, Cade cleared his throat. "That could have gone better." "It could have gone worse." Darius rubbed his temples. "At least no one died."
