Dark Dreams and Reality
Luke watched passively as the Emperor kills Vader with Force lighting. 'Vader is too weak. Palpatine will be a better master.' Luke thought to himself
Vader cried out in pain causing Luke to wince a little. Palpitine laughed. "Now that I have your son I have no need for you! Though it is a pity that he's too weak to kill you himself." He sneered.
'I'm not weak!' Luke thought. Vader continued to yell. Luke looked at his father then Palpitine. "Master." Luke said.
Palpitne stopped his attack and looked at Luke. "Yes my young apprentice?"
"Let me finish Vader off. To prove that I'm not weak." Luke begged.
Palpatine nodded. "Very well. Show me how strong you are in the Dark Side!"
Luke walked up to his father and ignited his light saber. "I'm sorry father, but this is how things should be."
Luke raised his lightsaber then immediately turns around and sliced Papatinte's head off. Luke smiles as Papatines head rolls on the floor.
"I'm not weak. And neither is my father." Luke said to the corps. He turns around and kneeled next to his father. "Father. Are you ok?"
"Luke. I'm proud of you." Vader said weakly.
Luke grabbed his father and held him. "Stay with me father." He begged. "Stay with me…"
Luke shoots awake in his bed. He looks over and sees Leia standing next to him.
"Luke, are you ok?" She asks. "Was it the same dream again?"
Luke nods. Leia sighs. "Luke, you shouldn't let that bother you."
Luke shakes his head. "But Leia. I almost let father die. I almost let Palpatine kill him. Was almost Palpatine's new slave."
Lea smiles and puts her hand on Luke's shoulder. "I know. But you saved father. You killed Palpitine then got father to the med center in time. You can't keep beating yourself up about that. Doesn't make for a good Sith lord."
Luke smiles.
"Speaking of which." Leia says, "You need to get ready. Father is about to be proclaimed Emperor and you need to be there with him so he can introduce you as his son and heir."
"I know. Too bad you can't be there." Luke says.
"Yes, but my identity needs to be kept secret so I can still infiltrate the remains of the rebellion. They may have lost the battle of Endor, but they're still there." Leia says sadly. She looks at her crono "Well I'll let you get ready." She walks out of the room.
Luke gets out of bed and put on his black Sith robes. He puts up his hood and walks to the Death Star's throne room. Luke knows that his father doesn't approve of the Death Star but knows that it still has its uses. He walks to the turbo lift. When he arrives His father is already there.
Vader acknowledges his son. "Luke."
"Father" Luke replies.
"I see that you are ready." Vader notes.
Luke nods. "Yes father."
"Come." Vader orders. He sits down on the throne while Luke stands to his father's left. The holocamera starts filming and Vader begins his speech.
"Citizens of the galaxy. I bring unfortunate news. The Emperor has died. He was killed by a rebel assassin who was then taken care of."
Vader continues speaking while Luke looks on. 'Father told me that someday a Sith apprentice is supposed to kill his master. But I don't know if I can do that now.' Luke mentally sighs. 'I guess I shouldn't think about that right now. No. For now I will focus on ruling the galaxy as father and son.'
