Dark Years...

It has been 5 years since the end of the once well renowned Galactic Imperial Republic. Turmoil has come across the universe as dark times pass over the universe. There is very little opposition left towards the Allegiance of Kaosuki. Vader and his remaining forces have fled to the Abh territory to hide. Revolts have broken out across the galaxies as many people hope to restore freedom and peace to the galaxy

Zechs: Its already been 5 years since the start of the war and two years since the last remnants of Vader was seen. Think our revolutions will prevail?
Heero: They might. Fett and Wolf did destroy Black Death so that did do some harm to the Allegiance of Kaosuki. They actually found complete star charts of the galaxies. Including the location of where the Abh are located. We know that Vader is there and that their base on Dagobah was destroyed.
Duo: Heh. You would have thought Vader would have let us know that he was going on a vacation.
Quatre: Well Vader didn't want to give his position away through radio transmissions. So it seems logical for him to tell us through standard letter base mail. It may have taken the 2 years to let us know but it's the most secret way to deliver a message because no one uses it anymore.
WuFei: We better get the revolutionists leaders together.
Wolf: Does that include the representatives from the Dragoni Empire?
Trowa: Yes it does, actually it's the Queen herself
Fett: Queen Kione? Hopefully she'll be able to escape the blockade.
Trowa: We actually have conformation from Zechs Yuy. She escaped on the Nautilus II with Miliardo Yuy, Reelina Winner, and Chief Grail Bandanna, leader of the opposition in the Gilmarqui opposition.
Wolf: We have to get these plans over to Vader before its too late. This thing puts the Death Star to shame and we actually heard he is going to test it soon.
Gray Ghost: Able to destroy solar systems, galaxies, even whole dimensions. Drail also said that it could go back in time. And if so desired he could destroy the entire time-warp complex.
Heero: We better get on our way...::the gundam pilots put their drinks down on the table in the bar and walk to their gundams and as the group leave and get ready to leave and walk down the hallways two Bounty Hunters look at them from a distance::
Bounty Hunter1: Wasn't that Fett, and the other gundam Pilots?
Bounty Hunter2: It was...and wasn't that the Gray Ghost and Wolf?
BH1: It was...I thought Wolf had a bounty on his head?
BH3: He does but after Drail died the guild kept the money and Gray Ghost went with them.
BH1: I won't take the Bounty on Fetts, Wolfs, and Gray Ghosts head...but I say we take the bounties on the gundam pilots head...remember Dredge wants them alive
BH2: Lets get em...::they soon start running and one of them fires a blaster and hits a wall::
Wolf: Looks like unexpected company...::Wolf presses a button on his blaster as the tip separates into three and he soon holds his blaster over his shoulder and fires and the three blasts kills the 3 bounty hunters::
Fett: Not anyone from the guild...must be amateurs...
Heero: Lets get moving...we don't want to attract too much attention

They get their gundams aboard a small transport as the Slave I and V are slid across into the transportsoon they finish boarding and the transport leaves the earth transport station and enters hyperspace

D'Artagnan: ::sigh:: Another birthday party...::he waits outside the door as a man makes his speech for D'Artagnan's birthday::
Man: 5 years ago he led us out of a government that was unjust! He lead us into a world where we actually talk over the situation and do not rely on only the council to handle situations! He never took control over the council! He had it so everyone had to dress a certain way! But 17 years ago our leader was born! He lead us out of the darkness and into a new age of hope and a future for all! He did this when he was only 12! Only 5 short years ago! Now today is his birthday, and he lives on for another year for the ultimate glory! May I present to you! Your leader! D'Artagnan!!!! ::he holds out his arm as he points it to a door that hisses open as D'Artagnan walks out of to the podium::
D'Artagnan: Thank you. I thank all of you for attending my birthday party and I wish to say that this government is in thanks to you. It was the people that urged me to revolt against Vader...and...::soon the man that was announcing him walks behind him holding a lightsaber in his hand and soon he activates it but soon D'Artagnan spins quickly and slices his arm off::
Haruna (girl in the crowd near the front standing between her father and her boyfriend): He's so strong...
Jack (her boyfriend): What was that dear?
Haruna: Nothing...

Soon the man starts to transform into a large beast with sharp claws and many other organic weapons and soon another man walks up except he appears dark and appears to be a Yuuzhan Vong war lord.soon he stands up to the podium as D'Artagnan tries to kill the beast and people scream in fear

Yuuzhan Vong man: Your leader is defeated! Or will be! I will avenge my brothers and sisters whom he killed! I am the last of the Yuuzhan Vong and my race was the only one to have been driven to extinction! And many other lives were killed for his petty government! I fight not for Vader or anyone but for the glory of the Yuuzhan Vong Empire!

Soon the beast roars as D'Artagnan jumps up and slices the head of the creature off and lands on the podium next to the Yuuzhan Vong with his lightsaber extended and him not even sweating

D'Artagnan: Your rule as leader of the universe is over infidel!
Yuuzhan Vong: No! Lets have negotiations! It's a misunderstanding! I am not like my other uncles and cousins!!!! I fear death!!!! NO!!!! ::soon D'Artagnan hacks downward and soon he falls down in half onto the ground::
D'Artagnan: As I was saying...No one could possibly tear this government apart that you the people have created!

The people clap and cheer as the doors on the right side open up to a humungous room virtually empty except for a few stands, tables, and some drinks
Classical music is heard playing as everyone dances D'Artagnan sits on his throne looking over everyone and soon he notices Haruna and how beautiful she is

D'Artagnan: Woah...Dredge who is she?
Dredge: I believe that is Lord Kaokumi's daughter Haruna
D'Artagnan: Haruna...she's beautiful...her name is intoxicating
Dredge: Sir, we have duties...
D'Artagnan: And I have no one else in my life to look up to...My father retired temporarily and my sister is somewhere in the unknown galaxy...
Dredge: ............
D'Artagnan: I must meet her
::he gets up as he sees her and her boyfriend fighting::
Haruna: You don't love me! You never want to dance with me! Every time I dance with you, you leave saying you got cramps!
Jake: Well how come you always are so pushy?! Why is it that we can never make decent love?!
Haruna: Well how come I always see you with Christine and this is one of the few times when you are able to take me somewhere?! I don't think I could live with you anymore...::she throws the ring that he gave her back onto his chest as he catches it and walks away:: That jerk...::she walks away and soon she bumps into D'Artagnan:: Oh I'm sorry
D'Artagnan: No, I'm sorry...I could not help but notice your situation. But I... know not of how you would feel but May I have this dance with you?
Haruna: I thought you would never ask! ::she and D'Artagnan soon start dancing with each other::
D'Artagnan: I have never met a girl as fine and beautiful as you are
Haruna: And I have never met a man with such kind and passionate words
D'Artagnan: Will you stay with me in my castle? To keep me company?
Haruna: I don't know...My father is old and needs my care. I must stay and protect and care for him.
D'Artagnan: Your father can come with you and I will have the finest medical doctors in the universe treat him.
Haruna: I will have to ask. But it may take time. How may I contact you?
D'Artagnan: Contact me on command channel 209
Haruna: I will...thank you for the dance. It was lovely::she kisses him on the cheek and soon runs off to her father in a hover chair near the punch bowl::
Dredge: Sir...I have good news
D'Artagnan: Seung Mina is joining us?
Dredge: No....the sith catacombs have been found at long last
D'Artagnan: Excellent! Have they begun the reawakening process?
Dredge: We found 600 chambers that are still intact and decent condition. All other 1 million were destroyed by cave ins and earthquakes...but they are awaiting you for your command
D'Artagnan: Well so its at a mere disadvantage...Give them my go ahead
Dredge: Right away my lord...::he bows and soon runs off as D'Artagnan leaves the ballroom::

Over on the planet Bahlm Vader and his forces secure the area for a meeting

Vader: Lady Lafeil, I want to thank you for letting my forces come and stay here ::Vader talks in English to the Abh and soon she responds in Abh language but everyone understands it::
Lafeil: It is all right Lord Vader. Any friend of Jason's is a friend to the Abh. We have been aware of your situation ever since the war started. You were most certainly careless to have given away your military secrets
Vader: I did not expect there to be a war within a month. Nor did I expect them to gain the power they gained within a one month time frame.
Jacen: Vader, we have received word that council will be here shortly.
Vader: Was it encoded in a code 2468 transmission?
Jacen: Yes
Vader: Hopefully we'll be able to gain enough weaponry and troops to defeat them. The Yuuzhan Vong are extinct so we would not be able to use their weaponry. And we don't want to get you involved into this war.
Queen Kione: Lord Vader, it is a pleasure to see you again. .::she walks in with her elegant dress and her long tail behind her with her graceful and large wings behind her::
Vader: Ah Queen Kione, I see you have arrived. Once the rest of the group has arrived we will discuss plans to save your mother Princess Suzuka.
Queen Kione: With the constant threats, my mother would have wanted us to not accept their offer. Believe it or not we have been able to hold our ground and Rogue Squadron has come along with the Nautilus II
Wedge: Lord Vader
Vader: General Antilles. I see you have come back safely.
Luke: Wedge!
Wedge Yes...LUKE! ::the two old friends see each other and soon give each other a pat on the back::
Luke: How have you been holding up against the new enemy?
Wedge: Haven't lost a fighter yet.
Vader: That's great!
Heero: Vader!
Vader: The rest of the group has arrived lets get this meeting underway...::they follow Vader into a hallway and soon a room::
Queen Kione: I see you have been training your Jedi Master Vader?
Vader: Yes. After many years since the fall of the Jedi and the Old Republic we have finally returned the Jedi to their Prime. ::they look into a room as Maxi is practicing with double bladed lightsaber nun chucks. As 200 Blaster bolts fire rapidly from droids he blocks all the attacks while spinning his nun chucks as though they didn't have the energy blades on them. Amazingly as the droids blow up Maxi stands without a scratch from his deadly weapon:: Very Good Maxi. Keep up the work.
Maxi: Thank you Master Vader ::he practices his form again without the droids::

They finally enter the room and get seated and soon Boba Fett inserts a small disc into a slot in front of his chair at the table and soon plans and other items come up

Fett: After Wolf and I finished destroying Black Death we found this...and our old pal the Gray Ghost is going to tell us about it
Xuilinc: THAT'S THE GUY WHO SHOT ME!!!!
Gray Ghost: I'm sorry Xuilinc...I was hired to kill Vader and I wanted a hunt
Vader: Now is not the time for condolences...explain
GG: D'Artagnan, I heard from Drail Cohin that he was digging on ancient Sith inhabited planets all over the galaxy searching for the lost catacombs of the sleeping sith
Albert: The sleeping sith! They have remained dormant for over 1,000 years! There's billions of them!
GG: Yes that's only a part of it. The Sith are to destroy Vader and the rest of his schools including Skywalker's
Vader: And the plan you received
GG: Not a whole lot is really known about it...but it has the firepower to destroy whole dimensions, go back in time, and possibly send the entire space-time continuum into a total reverse except for the weapon and it's personnel
Vader: So it's like a Death Star?
Wolf: Actually yes and no
GG: Unlike the Death Star's it can't destroy planets or suns...but if used properly it could destroy the universe.even GundamVader
Vader: Oh yeah I forgot I had that thing parked in the 13th dimension.I got to pay the meter before it runs out
Heero: You mean you forgot you even had it!
Quatre: Well to be honest HeeroI think everyone did
Heero: I DID NOT!
WuFei: Then how come you didn't bring it up at the battle? ::Heero looks at WuFei as a sweat drop appears::
Vader: Enough! Let us continue with this meeting
Queen Kione: As we all know my mother Princess Suzuka was captured and they demand that we surrender or they won't free her...I was able to get my brother and sister back but not her
Vader: Wolf...you said over the transmission you had also learned information about where she is and how to get her out
Wolf: Yes I didI found that she was being kept inside of the moon of Alamangolia
Vader: I didn't expect that...wait...inside?!
Wolf: Yes.that was the one I was most surprised about
Albert: Of course! About 1,000 years ago when they were trying to inhabit space that was one of the first places where they wanted to build but they abandoned it when they found Coruscant. Then they started their 100 year non stop construction to build the City Planet.
Vader: Glad you're a historian
DarkMigit: But they abandoned it because they felt it was unstable right?
Albert: Yes...I forgot about that
DarkMigit: One of my distant relatives actually was a warrior and construction worker.
Vader: So what is your plan Wolf?
Wolf: Well...It's a suicidist plan but If we can land inside of the base we just have to find out where she is located, get past 5,000 troops and break 200 access codes
C3PO: Sounds dangerous
R2: He beeps a short bit and then whistles
C3PO: What do you mean WE'RE going! We have gone through far too many adventures to continue on like this!
R2: He chortles a bit and blows a raspberry at 3PO as Yoda comes up followed by a few other Jedi
C3PO: What do you mean I'm a scarecrow?! R2D2 you know better than to behave in that fashion.
Yoda: Agreed to a verdict we have.
Obi-Wan: We will stay behind and train your students for the events to come.
Luke: Thank you Master Obi-Wan and Master Yoda::he bows::
Vader: With these prices on our heads and our lack of weapons its going to be difficult trying to win the galaxy back to us
Leia: Not necessarily. While I was on Earth they have recently begun mining Venus and dome of their other planets and they also have 260 billion soldiers ready along with 600 thousand fighters with pilots. However they are not Tie Fighters or Tie classThey are Incom T X-Wings.
Vader: Earth has moved faster than I thought.I was expecting another 20 years before they got this far...Leia go back to earth and tell them to assemble capitol class starships and await my command to come
Lafeil: Lord Vader, you know the Abh would be more than glad to support you in this battle but we have no military to help support. We are barely able to have our planetary defenses
Vader: I understand...I'd rather you remain hidden to him so he won't take you over
Queen Kione: My troops are worn and they are fighting hard trying to stay alive. My ships are beaten and are being held together by wedge nuts. Until the next group of ships is produced we're left sitting in the water. Well space anyway.
Vader: We will have to make due with what we have. We have to destroy his cannon before he even uses it...::soon alarms start blaring off as an announcement is spoken in Abh::
Jacen: NO!  There is an attack squad from the Allegiance of Kaosuki!
Vader: Just perfect......
Lady Sakura: Nautilus II! Fire the Hyper cannon into their hyperspace exit point!
Officer from microphone: Yes mamm!

Soon the large cannon on the Nautilus II begins charging and soon it fires a humongous beam into space but soon a large explosion is seen as the 5 ships exit hyperspace and send a chain reaction to the other 20 ships following

Vader: That was a close call...
Lady Sakura: Sir I am returning with Queen Kione to her home planet.
Vader: Very good...
Lord Li: Father I am also going with her and our children.
Vader: Good luck my son...::soon Li and Sakura leave the room following Queen Kione and her guards::
Fett: We don't have a whole lot of time...I suggest we leave to rescue her as soon as we can
Luke: Lord Vader
Vader: Yes...What is it Luke?
Luke: I suggest that we send the Students to the lost city of the Jedi
Vader: Good Idea...but we're going to need them soon so keep emergency transports there prepped
Luke: Indeed....
Heero: We'll attack the outside once you guys start a commotion inside. Our gundams are getting a bit rusty
Vader: We better hope so...right now we have not a whole lot of choices...Prepare the ships!

The End....
