Mission to Tatooine (KHS)

"You will proceed to to the Palace of Jabba the Hutt. His spies are the only reliable soure of information on that pitiful speck of a planet. He'll help you find the droids you seek."

- Palpatine to Galen Marek

The Mission to Tatooine was a mission in 0 BBY led by forces of the Galactic Empire to find the missing Death Star plans stolen by forces of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. The droids C-3PO and R2-D2 were in custody of the plans and fled to Tatooine. Emperor Palpatine had sent his new apprentice, Galen Marek, to Tatooine to find the droids and retrieve the plans.

Prelude
"I still have enemies to find and destroy. You will do my bidding."

- Palpatine to Galen Marek

Rebels leaders, Bail Organa, Garm Bel Iblis, Mon Mothma, and Rahm Kota had been kidnapped by the Empire and were to be executed by the Emperor personally. Galen Marek and Juno Eclipse led an attack on the Death Star in an attempt to free the Rebel Leades. The Emperor had sensed the presence of Marek and ordered Vader to kill the former Sith. Marek and Vader engaged in a duel, which nearly cripled Vader.

As Marek prepared to avenge the death of his father, Kento, Palpatine urged the young man to kill Vader and take his place at Palpatine's side. Kota rushed at Palpatine, stealing his lightsaber, in an attempt to keep Marek from returning to the dark side. Palpatine blasted Kota with Force Lightning, leaving Marek with the choice to save his friends, or kill Vader. Marek chose to finish Vader off, killing him with two lightsabers. Marek then approached Palpatine, who wanted Marek to finish Kota off, thus becoming a Sith Lord. Marek prepared to kill the wounded master, but instead tried to attack Palpatine. Palpatine blocked off the attack with no effort and threw Marek across the room. The Rogue Shadow came in to attempt to free the Rebels, but Palpatine grabbed the ship with the Force, and flung it at Marek, who already found the corpses of the dead rebel leaders.

Marek awoke on an operating table in a suit of Sith Stalker Armor. Palpatine told the crippled Sith Lord that he was now the Emperor's Slave and had to help him destroy the last of the Jedi Knights.

Two years later, fragments of the Rebel Alliance stole the plans to the Death Star and fled aboard the Tantive IV. The Imperial Star Destroyer Devastator destroyed the rebel ship, but the droids R2-D2 and C-3PO escaped the ship with the plans stored inside Artoo.

The Mission
"Quite a mess you made of the place. Your head is worth a lot of credits, so I'll be bringing it back to Jabba, now!"

- Boba Fett to Darth Stalker

Emperor Palpatine sent Galen Marek, now Darth Stalker, to go to Tatooine and retrieve the stolen plans from the droids. After wiping out a clan of Jawas, Stalker was contacted by the Emperor, who informed Stalker that Jabba the Hutt may have information concerning the droids.

Stalker made his way to the palace, killing many Jawas and Tusken Raiders along the way. He even pushed a Jawa Sandcrawler off a cliff in order to reach the palace. After hacking the entrance's security system, Stalker made his way into the palace. Jabba mistook the Sith Lord as a bandit and sent several Gammorean Guards to try and kill him. Stalker made short work of the guards, impressing Jabba. The Hutt allowed Stalker to meet him in the throne room to discuss business.

Stalker entered the throne room and was greeted by Jabba, who offered the Sith to join him. When Stalker questioned Jabba of the missing droids, Jabba denied any information, but his translator droid informed that the droids were headed for Mos Eisely. Jabba opened the trap doors below Stalker that led to the Rancor pit. Stalker used the Force to raise the gates and escape before crushing the rancor with them. He then proceeded in taking out several Gammorean and Weequay guards.

Stalker passed through the droid and junk rooms, taking out many guards along with three hacked Imperial Purge Troopes. With the guards down, Stalker entered the conveyer room, but no way out. Luckily, the damaged PROXY was around to help his Master. Despite having low energy and no legs, PROXY was lifted into the air by Stalker and raised to the giant security eye. PROXY used the last bit of his energy to turn into a Gammorean guard and order the path to be cleared. Stalker thanked his droid one last time before making his way to the garage.

When he got to the garage, Stalker encountered Boba Fett, who wanted to bring the Sith to Jabba for ruining the palace and that a bounty was now on Stalker's head. The two engaged into a duel, which led to Boba's jetpack being damaged. Boba tried to kill the Sith with a missile from his jetpack, but Stalker used the Force at Fett, killing the bounty hunter, leaving only his helmet. Stalker then stole a skill to Mos Eisely.
