STAR WARS: Sith WAR Chronicles
volume 2
By yodaman

The dark times for the galaxy have just darkened. Tollé Perit and his master, Braddox Kaldo, have been assigned to Naboo, along with the Jedi spy Shaina Malon, to find out what happened to a Republic Fleet that disappeared over the peaceful planet...

Unbeknownst to the Jedi, one pilot survived and found Dyaka Tyanika, the creator of hyperspace, in suspended animation in a Naboo cave. They were taken captive by Voren Fett, agent of the CPG, and were transported to Fett's unknown employer...

After a skirmish with some advanced Battle Droids, the Jedi followed Fett through a portal and into the future- right in the middle of the Battle of Geonosis. The Jedi of the future took them captive and the young Anakin Skywalker helped them escape, but he later turned out to be Voren Fett. He and Perit wrestled, but once Perit accidentally pressed a button on Voren's armor, the Utopian Coruscant they saw turned all to rubble, and so would the future for the galaxy...
CHAPTER 1
Wrong turn

Perit couldn't believe it. A huge city like this that was filled with millions of sentient life forms was destroyed within seconds. And a friend he trusted turned out to be the enemy they were hunting down from the beginning. How could this be possible? There seemed to be no hope for them.

"That isn't possible", said Perit.

"I know", said Kaldo. "And time travel is also supposed to be possible. But it just happened. We're stuck in the future, and a dark one it is. We must find a way out of here."

"How?" asked Shaina.

"There must be a way", said Kaldo. Then, off in the distance, a small cry of help was heard.
"There are people there!" yelled Perit, who immediately started running towards the noise. Kaldo then used the force to keep Perit from coming near the pleaders.

"You've been acting too rash lately", said Kaldo. "I would send you to the council if we were back home. But this isn't home. We must help those people, but ALL of us will go." Kaldo then gave a deep stare around the group. Everyone then nodded their head immediately and went towards the noise. They then saw two droids walking towards them. One was a protocol droid who seemed to have very few coverings, as if it had been destroyed in battle. And its companion, an astromech, had an extremely bad case of rust.

"HELP!" yelled the protocol droid. "WE ARE ALL DOOMED! THERE IS NO EXCAPE! HELP!"

"Calm down", said Kaldo. "We're here to help you. What do you need help with?"

"There were droids", said the protocol droid a little bit more calmer, "and they had blasters! They were destroying everything! And the ships! They tore the skyscrapers off the ground! We're all doomed!"

"Just shut up!" shouted Shaina. "We can't help you if you don't calm down and think. Now, where did the droids come from?"

"I wasn't able to see", said the protocol. "But the ships came from the south side of the planet."

"What kind of droids were they?" asked Kaldo .
"They were highly advanced", said the protocol. "And so were the ships."

"What did they look like?" asked Perit.

"You're standing on one!" exclaimed the protocol droid. Perit then looked down at his feet and saw that he was actually standing on a ship. It looked similar to a Sith fighter but was more streamlined and had an incredible amount of firepower.

"The ships damaged beyond repair", said Perit. "But the droid pilot if functioning somewhat." They then found one of the droids that the protocol droid was talking about. It was pretty badly damaged except for its torso, which looked brand new. Kaldo used the force to get the droid out of the ship. He then activated his lightsaber and put it against the droid's neck.

"If you don't answer me, I'll chop off your head", said Kaldo. There was no response from the droid. Kaldo then took a good sweep and chopped off a big chunk of the droid's torso.

"I'm not afraid of being deactivated", said the droid. "Might as well destroy me now". Kaldo did just that. He decapitated the droid, but made sure the droid was undamaged so the head was intact.

"Protocol droid", said Kaldo. "Can you use the astromech to search through the droids memory bank?"

"Sure", said the protocol droid. "Although he's rather not well at the moment. He can't even beep that well. But it's a good try. And call me CX-PX. This is RX-DX."

"Yeah, whatever," said Shaina, who delivered the head to RX-DX. RX-DX then made a noise that sounded like a cross of a burning bantha and the wailing of a drunken gotal. But RX's parts worked fine, and he was able to search through the memory bank of the droid. Perit then walked up to the droid and looked at its data screen.

"The screen's kind of blurry", said Perit. "The only words I can make out are 'Army of 12 thousand', 'launch from Ghattaka Base', and 'destroy everything in sight'.

"Ghattaka Base!" exclaimed CX-PX. "That's only 10 minutes on a speeder from here!"

"Do you have a speeder?" asked Shaina.

"Of course not", said CX-PX. "But Jhaetoe's Speeder Shop is only two minutes from here. Bad thing is it was on floor ten, but it's probably ground level now".

"Oh Sithspawn", said Shaina. "No speeders".

"There might be at least one intact or in a good enough condition so that we can repair it quickly", said Kaldo. "Lead the way, CX-PX".

"Absolutely!" exclaimed CX-PX. The foursome then followed the droid and the astromech (who had to be carried by Perit since its treads were rusted up). As the group left, Worwor was laughing very loudly as he ordered his squad to eliminate the gang.
