This my new 'Star Wars' story- Trapped on Imperial Centre.

BTW- my other story 'Skywalker's vs. Evil' will still be posted but is still in plan, and I will post the first chapter as soon as written. This is just and extra which will fill in some of the gaps because I have a good idea of where this one is going.

So please enjoy and review.

Trapped in Darkness

Luke Skywalker ran through the streets of Coruscant, the Imperial Centre. He had somehow been convinced to go on a high risk mission to the planet, alone. Now only two days in, he was on the run from the Empire, and his father. Now due to him being on Coruscant, the Emperor had taken an interest in the situation, supplying the highest quality of soldiers.

It was dark, the stars could barely be seen hovering in the night sky over the city, Luke lent against a wall in a darkened allay way close by the Imperial Palace, he was panting heavily from running from the Imperial Forces for close to twelve hours. He looked over to a window just beyond the entrance to the allay way, beyond the window was a luxurious living room occupied by a family, husband and wife along with two children.

They were gathered around a hologram of the news, Luke could barely make out the Image but he could get a brief idea of what it was about. He could make out the setting of a main city street lined with stormtroopers, amongst them a tall black figure could be made out, Darth Vader.

Luke cursed under his breath as he recognised the street, it was only a few minutes away. He had been running in that direction, trying to escape the forces that were circling in around him from behind, but now it looked like he had been located somehow, they were trapping him, giving him little chance of slipping through their grasp.

There was a crack of lightning, Luke looked up to the once starry night sky now dark and cloudy. He felt a droplet of water land on his cheek, then soon rain was poring down in buckets. He pulled up his black hood and sunk further back into the shadows, hoping the cover would provide shelter and the darkness keep him hidden from the enemy.

He sunk down onto the only dry patch of path under a large panel of rock that had fallen from a building to rest at an angle to the wall in the allay way. From the darkness the young Jedi watched the thousands of droplets of water bounce down onto the streets and window of the home at the end of the allay way.

Suddenly, a figure appeared at the window, it was a man, black hair, in his later thirty's early forty's. For a moment it seemed that their eyes met and locked, Luke prayed that the man hadn't seen him. The man's eyes then left his location and he drew the curtains shut.

Luke sighed in relief. He lent back against the dry cold wall, closed his eyes and focused. He drew in on the force around him, but kept careful not to reveal himself. He could sense the presence of his father close by, his eyes shot open when he realised where he was. He turned his head to the entrance of the allay way. He was just to the right, a few meters away from the entrance, behind him a squadron of stormtroopers.

He shuffled further back into the shadows hoping to conceal himself further, his heart raced when the dark lord entered his line of sight. He kept quiet, any noise whatsoever, even a gasp of breath would draw his attention to the allay way, to his hiding place, to him.

It appeared that Vader was going to move on when another man entered his line of sight. Luke immediately recognised it as the man at the window. The man walked up to the dark lord and bowed. Luke could only watch on as words were exchanged between the two, he began to panic when the man pointed down into the allay way, right at him.

Darth Vader nodded, the man bowed and left. It was a few seconds till the Dark Lord turned and faced the allay way, his masked tilted to look at the slab that Luke was hiding beneath.

Darth Vader reached out with the force and explored the allay way, it was dark, objects barely visible but the force allowed the Dark Lord to see it as clearly as if it was day. The allay way was long but narrow, there was a lot of rubble from where the side of a building had crumbled away, the rain danced on the rocks before trickling into a small stream flowing to the drains on the main street.

His search had brought him here, after the long hours and endless leads that came to a dead end, he had finally found him, he had finally found his son. The young Jedi, was sat under a fallen slab of rock, at first glance of both sight and force he could not be seen. But when the man in the nearby house came out and told him of a young man hiding in the allay way, Vader had made a much more thorough search. Now he could feel the presence of the young Skywalker, it was weak, but visible, the boy had made a good attempt at concealing his presence, but not good enough.

Vader stepped into the allay way and walked towards where the boy was hidden. He then knelt, held out his lightsaber, and ignited it. The red light allowed the Dark Lord to see the man, the figure was dressed in black, a hood pulled up over his head, his blue eye's shining through the shadow it created. The eyes were still, showing that the boy was not afraid, but the anger was clearly visible in their harshness, the scowl on Luke's face showed that he was annoyed that he had allowed himself to be found.

For a moment there was a silence, then Vader spoke. "Get out from under there Luke."

"No" Luke snapped.

"That was not a request, you will either come out yourself or I will drag you out myself." Vader threatened, but the boy still did not move. Seconds later the Dark Lord had become impatient. He grabbed the boy by the arm and roughly dragged him out.

"Hey!" The boy protested, before pulling out his lightsaber and igniting it. Vader stepped back a few steps surprised by the boy's move to attack. He did not bother to draw his own blade, "Troopers, block the entrance, he is not to get out of this allay way." As commanded the allay way was blocked of by a wall of white armored men, three men thick.

Suddenly, Luke attacked, his green blade aimed straight for the Dark Lord. It only took Vader a few seconds to block the blade with the force. Using his hand he drew the blade from the boys grasp.

"You are foolish to try to attack me, my son. Join me and together we can for fill your destiny." Vader offered.

"I will not be turned as easily as you father. I am a Jedi Knight."

"Then you have chosen to do this the hard way, one way or another you will convert to the darkside. It is your inheritance, it is your destiny."

"Destiny's can be changed." Luke made a move for Vader.

"Not for you, my son." Vader held up his hand, freezing his son in place whilst he circled around him like a predator circling its prey. He grabbed Luke's arms and pulled them behind his back, the pulled a pair f binders from his belt and fastened them around the young man's wrists.

He released Luke from his hold. "The Emperor requests to see you. He is your Master now."

"He is not my master! I will never yield, I will never turn to the darkside."

"We will see in time Luke. You will discover your true potential, and become a Sith."

Luke opened is mouth to speak, but could not find any words to form an argument, maybe somewhere inside he knew that his father was right. He did not resist as his father marched him back to a speeder and headed towards the Imperial Palace to meet with the Emperor.

I hoped you all enjoyed the first chapter, I am not sure how this will continue, but it should be interesting. I hope ;-)

PLEASE, PLEASE REVIEW. I would like to know what you think about this new story.
