Duel on Doan

An unarmed and drug-weakended Darth Bane was trying to find his way out of the Stone Prison when he is confronted by Lucia, the sniper Bane helped when he had been a member of the gloom walkers. Lucia tried to convince Bane to let Serra live, and that she was a good person. Bane began to gather the dark side to kill Lucia, only to be hit by a force push from Darth Zannah, who had snuck down a nearby corridor. Bane threw up a shield which protected him from damage, and he quickly jumped to his feet.Zannah and Bane begin a heated argument in which Zannah acuses Bane of defying the Rule of Two by trying to extend his life, only to have him chatise her, and tell her that the only reason he was trying to become immortal was because he had taught her everything he knew about the dark side, and yet she still had waited years to challenge him, to toil in his shadow. He then tells her she is unworthy of being the master. that is when zannah informs him she has found a new apprentice, set harth. Bane then asks her, "Do you really think you can defeat me?" He lets his hand drop to his right side, hoping zannah wouldn't notice he was unarmed. After a moment, she realizes he has no lightsaber, and jumps at him. Then the battle begins. Bane ducked and weaved, managing to dodge zannah's initial strikes, but was in a full retreat, shooting bolts of lightning at zannah's boots to hold her at bay. bane jumped over her and she kicked out, trying to knock the breath out of the big man. however, he caught her boot, and twisted her body, trying to snap her leg bone. Zannah rolled with the move though, and brought her lightsaber up to slash bane's wrist off, only to go through thin air, as bane had already reacted to her attack. she had him cornered, and he had nowhere else to go. as she moved in for the kill, he shot another burst of lightning at her. she managed to catch it with her lightsaber, but the force pushed her back several steps, giving bane enough room to jump out of the corner. Zannah begins to think that, if her and bane's positions had been changed, and she had been weaponless, bane would have already ended the duel. zannah rushed back in, and when she was less than a meter away, her blade already slashing in for the killing blow, she felt the hair on the back of her neck rise, but it was too late. a shimmering purple cocoon of dark side energy enveloped bane, a shell holding back a sttorm of pure dark side energy. her blade bit into the cocoon, and it released the energy, sending zannah flying back fifteen meters. she jumped to her feet, and came at bane again. then she stopped. an alarm had started, signaling that serra had set the stone prison to self destruction. zannah knew she had to hurry. as she gathered herself for another charge, bane shot out a huge burst of lightning, missing her and hitting the wall.despite missing the first time, bane sent a follow up burst, revealing a red button underneath the stone wall. Zannah was thrown clear as the entire wall blew up, the explosives prematurely activated by bane's lightning. the rubble seperates bane and zannah, and they both begin their escape, trying to get out before the whole prison came down
