Emerging Threat/story

Chapter 1
[4 ABY]

[Aboard the Second Death Star]

"If you will not turn to the Dark Side, perhaps she will." Those words from Vader were Luke's breaking point. For Leia was everyone's last unflagging hope. If Vader turned his twisted, misguided views on her... "Never!" Luke screamed. He Ignited his lightsaber and rushed to his father with a frenzy he'd never known. The two fought onward determined to defeat the other, but it was soon evident that Luke had the advantage. They locked swords body to body. Blow upon blow, Luke forced Vader to retreat back towards the power core's bottomless shaft. Each stroke of Luke's saber rain on Vader, like accusations, like scream, like shards of hate. The Dark Lord was driven to his knees, he raised his blade defend him from another torrent of blows- and Luke slashed Vader's right hand off at the wrist. Luke stared at his father's twitching, severed mechanical hand- and then at his own black glove covered hand. Suddenly the Emperor was there, looking on. "Good! Kill him! Your hate has made you Powerful! Now fulfill your destiny and take your father's place at my side!" Suddenly Luke hurled his lightsaber away. "Never! Never will I turn to the dark side! You have failed, Palpatine. I am a Jedi, like my father before me. "So be it, Jedi. If you will not be turned, you will be destroyed." Palpatine raised his arms toward Luke: bolts of lightning shot from his finger tips zapping the son of Vader. Vader couldn't stand to watch his son be killed, he had killed all he had sworn to protect he had killed Obi-Wan, Most of the Jedi and Padme, but he could fufill his oath and save his son. Vader was no more, Anakin Skywalker gathered all of his strength and lifted his former master and threw him into the endless shaft of the Death Star.

[730 ABY]

"Sir, are you alright?" asked General Tyne. "Yeah, I just had another vision." "Lord Void, we have landed." He chuckled at Tyne for telling him the obvious. "Stay here." Tyne breathed a sigh of relief, he had heard terrible things about Slag and did not want to experience any of them for himself.

Chapter 2
"No it can't be, it can't!" Screamed Nova Eclipse. "What is wrong?" asked Rasha. Nova stomped the ground in a rage, "our son, our only child is destined to destroy a planet and he will also become a Sith Lord! Do you know what we have to do?" Rasha takes a step away from her baby, "You can't be suggesting that we kill him!" Nova looks up and locks eyes with Rasha, "It has to be done. It hurts it really does, look inside yourself you know that I am right." Rasha stares into the sky, "You are right." Darth Void reveals himself and lets his anger be known to Nova and Rasha, Voids first act of anger was stabbing Nova in the back piercing his heart. "Nova, No!!" is Rasha's last words as Darth Void lifts her up and starts chocking her with the force, and then with a flick of a finger and the force he sends her smashing through the concrete on a side-walk. "It is alright, little one you are going to be safe with me." uttered Darth Void as he picks up Octego. Darth Void returns to his ship with the baby cradled in his unforgiving arms. "Did all go well, sir?" Inquired Tyne. Suddenly after Darth Void nods his head, Tyne starts deteriorating. "Probably should have given him the day off." said Void suddenly realizing that this baby was to be his future successor.

Chapter 3
[748 ABY on Deralia]

"Good! You have mastered every technique I have taught you! I now grant you the rank of Sith Lord, I also have a very special gift for you." Exclaimed Darth Void with more than just a hint of excitement in his voice. Darth Rupture looks at a shadowy figure as it entered the room. "Hello Master, I am ID-10T, this Unit is fluent in violence and torture." said ID-10T. "Interesting, Tuscad didn't make this did he?" asked Darth Rupture. "I did." said the Dark Lord while thinking about how much he hated droids."I am assigning you with the important task of tracking down and capturing the Jedi Knight Ronin Allster." Darth Rupture nodded his head in approval and then asked "Might I Inquire as to why?" Darth Void's response was just as cold "You might." Darth Rupture then flew to the remote planet, Tatooine and made his way into the Jedi Temple without any incident. Sensing that Rupture was in need of assistance Janok Kaan approached him and asked him if he could help him at all. "Uh yeah, do you know where Ronin Allster is at?" asked Darth Rupture. Janok Kaan immediatly pointed down the hall and stated "Why, here he comes." Rupture thanked Kaan for helping him and Kaan then asked what his name is, Rupture then immediatly replied "Uh, Force Darkly." "Force Darkly?" Kaan inquired. "No, I said it is Farce Darkly" replied the Sith Lord realizing how close he had come to being caught. The Sith Lord then excused himself and approaches Ronin Allster. "I need some help' said Darth Rupture. "With what?" asked Ronin. "A local Krayt Dragon." Lied Rupture. Before Darth Rupture could fully convince him to leave a group of Jedi burst into the room. "That's him!" bellowed Kaan while pointing at the Sith. "I'm sorry?" said Darth Rupture with an innocent voice. Kaan then said, "He is a Sith, the is no Farce Darkly listed in the Archives!" With the evidence needed the Jedi moved in to make the arrest, but Rupture wasn't going without a fight, Rupture caught a Jedi whose name was Krunk Angular completely off gaurd and thus killed him by puncturing his lung. A Jedi Master whose name was Ploke-Un eventually cut up Rupture's saber and made the arrest.

[Interrogation Chamber]

"For the last time who sent you!" screamed the Jedi Executor Valsont. "A Skywalker." Darth Rupture had replied. "I am getting tired of your blabbering, the Skywalker family died with Cade Skywalker. Now if you don't tell me who sent you this time, I'm going to stick this lightsaber in your shoulder and I am going to twist it around over and over until I get tired then I will cut off all your limbs and finally your head, so who sent you." Said Valsont in a chilling tone. Darth Void then burst through the door and said to Valsont two epic words, "I did."

Chapter 4
"Ah yes, the Sith Lord, the coward that hides in the shadows." "You think that I hide behind the shadows? I am here, standing before you." said Darth Void. "Perhaps you are a decoy, It is very rare for a Sith Lord to march in and slaughter half of the Jedi temple's inhabitants." "To suggest that a decoy could slaughter over half of the Jedi is very foolish." "Indeed, defend yourself, you Sith slime!" Said Valsont Igniting his saber. The two lightsabers struck and became a dazzling display of red and blue. The blades connected upward, downward and from side to side. The whining of the blades were so loud it could have shook the Galaxy. Neither Darth Void or Valsont had any clear advantages, or disadvantages for that matter. Eventually chairs, desks and potted plants were flying across the room at high speeds. The display of elegance ended when Darth Void started shooting lighting at Valsont knocking him out. The Dark Lord then unchained Darth Rupture and shackled Valsont to the wall. Without a word the two Sith escaped the burning Jedi Temple. Once the Sith were aboard The Palpatine Darth Rupture apologized for failing his mission, Darth Void however was very understanding and said "Apology accepted, I have Ronin on board, now let's go home."

Chapter 5
[754 ABY deep in the Outer-Rim] "Are you certain that letting Ronin go back to the Jedi was a good idea? asked Darth Rupture." "I got what I wanted from him and the Jedi will spend time searching the base on Deralia when we won't even be there. I have something that I must tell you..." "What is it?" ask Darth Rupture looking at his feet. "I want you to stay behind, while I go journey deep into the unknown regions." "That's crazy, you can't go out there, you will never make it back." "I have no choice." said the Dark Lord in a calm voice. "Why would you even want to go out there!" "To finish what Revan started." "You don't mean..." "I do, If I am not back in 780, then I am dead."

[On Tatooine]

"I DEMAND ACTION IT'S BEEN SIX YEARS! I WANT THE SITH TO PAY!" roared Valsont. "You may find this odd, but I don't think that Darth Void was completely consumed by the darkside, in fact according to the holo-recordings he only killed those that got in his way, I think he was actually just trying to get to his... friend as fast as possible, in fact he spared you when he could have killed you." said Janok Kaan "HE KNEW I WOULD BE ASHAMED OF BEING DEFEATED! Wait... did you say Darth... Void?" "Yes, why?" "Because... I am going to make him pay for these injuries he has caused me!" "All you've got is a scar, you should be grateful." "He did more then that to me, he cut off MY LEFT ARM!"

[760 ABY]

Excellent, justice shall finally be served, now that the Grand Sith Purge has been initiated. thought Valsont, Valsont grinned.

Chapter 6
"Are you sure that your decision was a wise one? I mean we shouldn't try to massacre the Sith, we should try to make them see the light." Reasoned Jonak Kaan. "Fellow Master Kaan, I know you mean well, but look at how many times us Jedi have been brought to near extinction, this new act, this declaration of all out war, could help stop the sith once and for all." said Krim. "I refuse to hunt down the Sith without being provoked by them! "You are a disappointment to the Jedi Order, I don't know what Master Vlux ever saw in you, but I do know that you shall do as the Council decrees or be expelled." "I have learned all I could from this distraught Jedi Order and so it ends." said Janok Kaan as he walked out of the Jedi Temple.

[761 ABY in the Unknown Regions]

Darth Void activates numerous Holocrons. "What do you know about the Unknown Regions?" Inquired Darth Void. "I know that it has been the doom of many "Sith Lords", that only a true Sith Lord can hope to survive." said Exar Kun. "You must know the secrets of the force, you must be intertwined with the force." said Darth Plagueis. "Those that venture out there, may never return." Answered Darth Krayt. "You have just made the vital mistake of coming here yourself, you should have sent your apprentice." Advised Darth Sidious. "Once you make contact with the True Sith, they will tear you apart, first by torture, then your emotions and finally your very connection to the force." Revan commented. "Is there any hope that the True Sith can be defeated?" Asked Darth Void even though he was sure of the answer. "There is, no hope." said a grim Revan.

Chapter 7
[761 ABY Ventooine's House of Delegates]

"My dear friend, do you realize what you have just done?" Asked Darth Rupture "Yes, I have denied you and your small militia of pirates the right to set up base on this planet." Stated G'alli'sh "You arrogant fool, we are more then pirates, we are...." "Please leave the building you have overstayed your welcome." "Very well, you fool." Said Darth Rupture as he walked out. G'alli'sh Pushes intercom button on the wall. "The Sith has stopped by." "Excellent." replied Valsont who then stows away on the Dualshock

[Over Ventooine]

I will make those fools pay thought Darth Rupture as he walked into his private chambers. "Hello..." Said Valsont. "What the gurk are you doing on my ship!" "Well, I was hoping for a civilized chat between two Sith Lords." "What gives you the right to even proclaim the title!" "Let's see, I survived two duels with your master, I have killed other Sith Lords and I trained your master myself." "What do you mean trained?"" DO I HAVE TO SPELL IT OUT FOR YOU, I AM DARTH VAIN!" "Care to back that up in a duel?" asked Darth Rupture Igniting his lightsaber. "No problem" The two Sith withdrew their blades and clashed. The vibrant colors of the blades looked like two suns coliding. A kick and a punch was thrown into the mix every now and then, it was a Magnificent duel to the end indeed. The Sith both fought with such valor. The blades locked together causing a series of sparks. If Rupture shot lightning from his finger-tips Vain would absorb it with the force, If Vain would draw more power from the force then so would Rupture. "Very good, Darth Void has taught you well, I sense much anger in you, Darth Void's species was too passive to ever fully embrace the darkside and to fully tap into its power, but you being a human means that you can fully embrace it, give into your anger and your aggressive nature and I will show you unlimited power!" Said Darth Vain. ''Should I join him, should I fully embrace the darkside, Void warned me that if I fully embraced it, then it would be my very undoing. What does he know? He did admit that I would become even more powerful then he ever could.'' "What can you possibly teach me?" asked Darth Rupture. "A great many things..."

Chapter 8
"Good, you have learned in a matter of minutes what it takes others years to learn! Now channel all your hate and fears on Ventooine!" Exclaimed Darth Vain. Darth Rupture forms a big glowing black ball through the power of the force, it literally engulfs Ventooine, effectively blowing it apart into nothingness. "I did it, I killed a planet..." said Darth Rupture. "That is but one of the many abilities of the darkside."

[Deep in the Unknown Regions] "I didn't just feel what I think I did, did I?" asked Darth Void in disbelief. "You did, your apprentice just destroyed a planet." Darth Plagueis stated. "No, he killed Trillions of innocents, he couldn't have, but he did and I also feel... some one that should be dead, what is that?" "A ship, one of your species is aboard it, Darth Desecrate." said Revan "So Sith is my other heritage, mother would never tell me what species my father was, I only knew that I was part Gen'Dai." "Not much you can do now, your caught in it's tractor beam." "I can still fight my way to freedom..."

[Aboard the Formidable]

"Welcome, to the Taa'qwaaiin System! Since, we share the same blood, I will spare you, But only under one condition!" said Darth Desecrate. "What?" asked Darth Void. "You take me and the rest of your brothers into your Regions so we can destroy the inhabitants there and make it our own!" "Never, I came here to see if you were a threat, and to destroy you if you were!" "Very well then you traitorous piece of filth, I shall deal with you personally. TAKE HIM AWAY!"

Chapter 9
[773 ABY, Aboard the Formidable]

"I have no more need of you, do you know why?" asked Darth Desecrate. Vacare Stared blankly at Desecrate in response. "One of my recon ships has found passage into your Regions, I am personally going to oversee the invasion." "After you stripped me of the force I hoped that you would kill me, I am but a hollow of what I once was, I have no purpose now." Said Vacare. "Will you die accepting the fact that you are not Darth Void anymore." "I accepted that when you drained me of the Force. I accepted it because it was forced upon me and that I had no other choice." "I bet you find this rather ironic..." "Ironic no, inconvenient yes." "Do you know what I am about to do to you?" "Kill me." "That would be too merciful, instead I am sending you to Taa'qwaaiin, for your betrayal towards your people. I know that they can do more to you then I could."

[Aboard the Dualshock 774 ABY]

"HOW DARE YOU!" Yelled Darth Vain. "You should have known that I was meant to be the one to rule the Galaxy, not you." stated Darth Rupture. "How could YOU run the galaxy, I have many followers." "Really, they swore allegiance to me." "The Covenant of the Shadows has sworn allegiance to you! HOW DARE THEM!" "If C.O.T.S. is to maintain control of the galaxy I am the one that has to be at it's helm!" "You had better win, because if you don't..." Once again the two Darth's ignited their lightsabers for a duel and with a thunderous bang the duel had begun.

[On Rhen Var at Janok Kaan's Jedi Order]

"My fellow Jedi, the balance of the force is shifting." said Janok Kaan "I sense... Something that I have never sensed before! It is at Miglar 2, it is as if a single person is slaughtering everyone on the planet!" said Ronin Allster. "This, this is something terrible... It is not Darth Rupture's doing." said an anonymous Jedi Knight.

[On Miglar 2] "Please, don't kill me, I am only a simple miner, please take my wife and my children, just don't harm me!" said a Citizen. "Wife and children, sounds like a good idea." said a laughing Darth Desecrate. "What are you doing to me, my... my skin, no, ah... ah, stop please, stop turning it inside out, ah my leg, ah my leg! No No No! Ahhh!" "Almighty Rancors what are you?!" Exclaimed a Miglar Security Gaurd. "I am your destruction!"

[Aboard the Dualshock]

The Duel reaches it's climax. "You are the future of the Sith...I am... honored... to... pass down the... mantle to... you...I...have...no...regrets...." "Then you know what I must do..." answered Darth Rupture who then proceeds to choke Darth Vain to death.

[On Taa'qwaaiin]

"Look he is waking up." said a Sith. "Should we kill him?" asked another Sith. "I don't know, he can't feel the force anymore." "So?" "So, he could be the one." "I see, you could be right, he could save us from extinction!" "He is the one!" "How do you know?" "He has Gen'dai blood, the Gen'dai can regenerate, this could easily stop the virus from killing us!"

Chapter 10
[780 ABY on Taa'qwaaiin]

The Jedi on Tatooine have been destroyed, Jannok Kaan's Jedi Order moved there base from Rhen Var to Lehon due to the betrayal of Ronin Allster that was now known as Darth AT-AT. The Covenant of the Shadows and the True Sith are engaging in the last battle of the long and bloody war. "You won't win Desecrate!" said Darth Rupture. "While you may have won the battles of Ziost and Korriban, I don't think you will win this time because you are on my turf!" said Darth Desecrate. "Let's end this war!" "You must realize that you are doomed!" And with that the Dark Lord of the Sith and the Ancient Sith started their duel. They would parry each others blows, they would match each others moves, they would leap to incredible heights while dueling, the would avoid falling rocks while dueling and they would avoid each others lightsabers while dueling. The Duel was between two very skillful opponents, adding to the fact that neither were willing to give up any ground. The two combatants would eventually recieve a gash from each others lightsabers, but that didn't slow them down, they absolutey would not falter. Finally the duel came to an end and Darth Rupture emerged the victor. "It is over, at last peace has arrived. Now to destroy random planets until the Jedi will give themselves up and submit to my rule." After Darth Rupture stated that a sudden and unending frenzy of blaster bolts hit Darth Rupture in various places, ripping him apart until he is dead. That is not what I taught you, you would have killed many innocents, it had to be done, I will grieve for you my son, I will grieve. thought Vacare. "My master! You gunned him down! I'll kill you for this!" yelled Darth AT-AT who had witnessed his Master's death. "You will have to catch me first!" said Vacare breaking into a run. The Chase was a long and brutal one, Vacare was eventually stuck between a cliff and Darth AT-AT which left him with three options. The first option was to jump off the cliff and hope to survive, the second was to try and gun down Darth AT-AT, the final option was to try and run around Darth AT-AT. "I would never give you the pleasure of killing me." uttered Vacare who then jumped off the cliff. "I would have loved to have killed him, too bad, no one could have survived that fall. OT-9, I need you to hack into my master's droids data banks, that droid should have sufficient knowledge of the Sith." said Darth AT-AT. "Dweet-Dweet MALFUNCTIONING, MALFUNCTIONING! ERROR! SELF-DESTRUCT PROTOCOL ACTIVATED!" Bellowed OT-9 who then Self-Destructs. ''I need help, I can never be a Dark Lord of the Sith. I've got an idea. I need to learn from one of the best, when I was a Jedi, Kaan once mentioned that a Sith Lord called Darth Prone was a very powerful being, he said that Prone had skills superior to that of even General Grievous.'' thought Darth AT-AT.

[Arrives at Raxus Prime] After extensive research Darth AT-AT managed to locate Darth Prone's Tomb. "Perfect, his tomb is right here!" said the Dark Lord who then used an ancient Sith Ritual to Revive Darth Prone. "Darth Prone rise!" Darth Prone awoke.
