STAR WARS
The Lost Episode: Portal to a Distant Past
Chapter 1
Long, long ago, in our very galaxy…
The Empire has all but disappeared from space and time. They have managed to stumble upon a wormhole or a dimensional space rift. This rift distorts both time and space. As a test, the Empire has sent forth their clone armies, otherwise known as Storm Troopers, into the rift to destroy anything that opposes them and to capture any planets that might be useful in the Empire.
The Empire does not know that they have gone back to the past, where the Earth is still intact. The people of Earth are fairly knowledgeable about the Empire's plans, and have been since before the Clone Wars. The people of Earth have this knowledge because of the "Father of the Force," a man by the name of George Lucas…
***************
Dryian Gelasai lived with Redian Gelasai (her father), Johanna Gelasai (her mother), and Zeriellia Gelasai (her younger sister). Staring up at the sky was a favorite pastime of Dryian's, especially since her sister was fairly ill. Dryian always dreamed of a better life, for her family, especially her sister… "If wishes were horses, then everyone would have one."
Something caught the sun in the sky, covering the ground in a cold shadow. Dryian hissed in shock and horror as she saw a spaceship with the Empire's style ground near her home. She heard, before seeing the Storm Troopers, as she fled into her house. She swooped her sister into her arms and fled to their neighbors. Her parents had been conversing with some neighbors, close to where the Storm Troopers had landed.
"Where are we going?" Zeriellia whispered softly.
"We're going to see Jacob and his mom," Dryian kept her attention focused on the house farthest away from the Storm Troopers. She rang the doorbell once.
"Dryian, what's wrong?" Jacob answered the door in surprise.
"Can we come in?" Dryian turned and saw the Troopers kill three people, two were her parents, and the third… was Jacob's mother.
"Get in, now!" Jacob hissed and he quickly dragged both girls into his home. He locked the door before nearly collapsing to the floor in grief, "Who are they? Why did they kill her?"
"This is gonna sound crazy…" Dryian sighed as she sat down next to Jacob. He stared up at her, urging her to continue. "I think that those were Storm Troopers, straight out of Star Wars."
"What? How?" Jacob hissed.
"I don't know! What I do know, is that we are in serious trouble. Both of my parent's are gone, as is your mother, and Zee needs her meds," Dryian swallowed and hugged her sick sibling lightly.
"Well, if Storm Troopers exist, what about Jedi?" Jacob frowned.
"It's highly likely," Dryian replied. "Can't Jedi hear thoughts?"
"Yeah, I think so, though I haven't read the books…" Jacob frowned.
"Neither have I, but it's worth a try!" Dryian clenched her jaw before forcing herself to go into a meditative state, her sister still sitting in her lap. *Hello? Are any Jedi Knight's out there? We need help!*
"Getting anyone or anything?" Jacob sighed as he watched the shadows nearing and passing the window.
"No," Dryian frowned. "This just…"
*Hello? Who are you? Why are you in need of assistance?*
*Um, hi. My name is Dryian Gelasai. Storm Troopers have managed to come back I time and are now attacking Earth. Who are you and can you help us?* Dryian waited for the reply of the person she was thought-sending to, hoping beyond all belief that it was a Jedi.
*I can do nothing but give you guidance, for I do not know how the Storm Troopers arrived into your world. You may call me Ben.*
"Jake, I think I'm talking to Obi-wan…" Dryian swallowed nervously. *Okay, Ben. Now that we got through the bloody introductions… HELP! GUIDE! WHATEVER! Those blasted clones are next to the house as we mind-send!*
*Calm yourself, you cannot think clearly if your mind is panicked.*
"Okay, Ben says we need to calm down and get ready…" *Okay, now what?*
*That is up to you, do what you can to stop them. I cannot do much on my end of this conversation.*
*Cause you're just a spirit of the past…er… future, right?* Dryian waited patiently for his reply.
*Yes, unfortunately.* Ben's sigh was almost tangible.
"Okay Jake," Dryian gathered up her courage. "We are going to steal a fighter plane from those clones," Dryian closed her eyes to resume mind-sending to Ben, *Think you can coach me on how to pilot a fighter?*
*I believe that is within my powers, but where will you go?*
*I don't know, but I have to get Jake and my sister out of here! I am not going to come back to earth without reinforcements!* Dryian gave her sleeping sister another soft hug, with one hand, and squeezed Jacob's hand with the other hand.
"So, you ready to go steal that fighter?" Jacob smirked, ready to do the enemy some damage.
"You bet," Dryian grinned at him, a mischievous sparkle in her eyes.
