Chapter 1
AN: Well here is my newest story it is a Naruto x Star Wars crossover challenge that Lawrence Helmbain challenged me to do.
Naruto is the former apprentice of Shaak Ti but when she was killed he became the secret apprentice of Darth Vader along with Galen Merrick aka Starkiller.
Two weeks after the Empire falls Naruto along with Garrick and Luke are visited by the ghosts of Shaak Ti, Yoda, and Anakin Skywalker who inform them that a Worm Hole has formed in the Maw that if your caught in before it closes will transport them to before the Empire was founded.
Naruto along with Galen decide to go to the past to change it.
Naruto will use two red lightsabers to start but will get a green one not long after going back in time, use Force Lightning, and sometimes Force Choke.
His flagship will look like a Super Star Destroyer but have tech from around the Clone Wars Era
He will have 10,000 Storm troopers, 500 Droid Commandos, 200 Droidekas, 100 Magna Guards, 1,000 Droid Starfighters that are painted white to show they belong to him, 600 Republic Gunships, 150 ARC-170 Starfighters, 75 Y-Wing Bombers *The Clone War ones not the Rebellion ones*, 100 V-19 Torrents, and 300 ATT droid tanks that have been upgraded so that the tanks themselves are droids.
Naruto will have all this due to him only having 1 ship when he goes to the past, also he won't be able to replace any of his forces for a while.
Naruto and Galen will ally with the Jedi and in response the Jedi will send Shaak Ti, Aayla Secura, and Luminara Unduli as representatives aboard Naruto's ship
Sitting in a meditative stance was an 18 year old blonde haired male wearing dark brown robes and black combat boots; this man was Naruto Uzumaki and he was currently reflecting on his life so far. He remembered when his parents were killed in a starship accident when the engine of the ship they were riding on had a catastrophic failure causing the ship to explode killing everyone in it.
He remembered first hearing about his parent's death on the extranet when he was only around 5 years old which caused him to run away from home. He remembered running for what seemed like hours until he came across someone who would change his life forever Jedi Master Shaak Ti, who had been on the run from the Empire for a few years after the fall of the Republic.
Naruto remembered finding her wounded from a blaster bolt to her leg and healing her with some bacta patches he always kept on him. He remembered talking with Shaak Ti about the Jedi who he had always looked up to and after her testing his blood finding out that he was force sensitive. How Shaak Ti told him she would take him as a Padawan if he wanted and him agreeing.
Naruto smiles slightly remembering his training and how for the next 8 years Shaak Ti taught him in the ways of the force and him taking to it like a sponge to water. His smile drops when he remembers the day his master was taken from him. A small group of pirates had spotted them without them noticing and reported their location to the Empire. A day later a group of Sith Inquisitors led by Darth Vader himself attacked and in the battle that followed all of the Inquisitors were killed however his master had been fatally wounded.
As he watched the life fade from his masters eyes Naruto felt his world crashing around him for the second time in his and nearly gave into the Dark Side of the force something that Darth Vader noticed. Naruto remembered how instead of killing him; Darth Vader told him he was to become his secret apprentice alongside another who he would meet soon. Naruto remembered asking Vader why he would do this and why he should join him before being shocked by Vader's response.
*Flashback*
Naruto kneeled next the lifeless body of his Master who had become like a second mother to him since he had begun learning the ways of the force as his anger begins to build and he begins to subconsciously tap into the dark side of the force causing the ground around him to begin to break apart and large chunks to begin to levitate before he realizes what he is doing and stops.
Darth Vader just stand there watching as the teenager before him nearly gives into the dark side and the power he has and begins to think "Such power and he looks no older than 13. If I can convince him to become my apprentice then my long plan to right the many wrongs I have done will be that much closer. He is able to come back from using the dark side which means that he won't give into it and therefore be able to use both sides of the force." As Darth Vader thinks this he formulates a plan to get the boy to join him and help with his plan.
Vader takes a step forward and notices the boy tense up slightly "You have much power inside you boy that much is obvious by the fact that you are able to come back from using the Dark Side of the force" he says getting the boys attention.
Naruto gets up and turns around to look at Vader before glaring at him "Why should I join you, because of you my Master who I thought of as a second mother since my parents died is dead! Why should I join someone who not only turned their back on the ways of the Jedi but is one of the key reasons behind the destruction of the Jedi Order" he yells at the Dark Lord remembering how Shaak Ti told him about Darth Vader's role in the down fall of the Jedi Order.
Vader sighs inside of his helmet "You should join me because there is more at stake than you know" he says slightly shocking Naruto "I know my past actions are deplorable and that I betrayed everything the Jedi Order stood for" he says sounding genuinely regretful "However for the last few years I have been secretly aiding a rebellion that will someday take down the empire" Vader says shocking Naruto who uses the force to tell if Vader is lying and finds no lies in what he just said.
Darth Vader looks at the boy "With your help my plan to bring about the downfall of the Empire and return it to the Republic will be that much easier" he says looking at Naruto whose eyes widen "However in order for you to combat the dark side and reach your full potential you must learn to wield both the dark side and light side of the force in harmony" he says shocking Naruto.
Naruto looks at Vader before narrowing his eyes "Nice try but you can't fool me I will never join the dark side and become a Sith" he says glaring at Vader.
Darth Vader just shakes his head "No you won't that was clear when you stopped yourself from succumbing to the dark side a few minutes ago" he says shocking Naruto "You have the rare ability to wield the dark side without succumbing to it" the dark lord continues shocking Naruto. Vader continues to look at Naruto "What is your answer; will you join me and learn how to wield both sides of the force in harmony and ultimately help bring down the Empire or will you just go on with your life doing nothing and watching as others suffer under the Empire's rule?" he asks.
Naruto thinks for a minute about his options and what his master would do before he comes to a decision "I will join you and help overthrow the Empire and bring back the Republic, I only ask one thing" he says with determination in his eyes "If it looks like I am succumbing to the dark side instead of wielding it in harmony with the light side I ask that you strike me down" he says not wanting to become a sith.
Vader looks at Naruto seeing determination in his eyes and smiles slightly behind his mask "Very well you have my word that if I feel you are succumbing to the dark side I will strike you down before you become a sith" he says getting a nod from the boy "Now how about introducing yourself".
Naruto nods his head "I am Padawan Naruto Uzumaki formerly under the tutelage of Jedi Master Shaak Ti before her death" he says bowing to Darth Vader.
Vader smiles behind his helmet "It is nice to meet you Naruto Uzumaki now come along we have much to do and I have much to teach you before we attempt to bring down the Empire" he says before he leads Naruto to his transport ship.
*End Flashback*
For the next 5 years Naruto learned how to wield the dark side and light side of the force in harmony from Darth Vader while going on secret missions assigned to him to help the Rebellion. He also met Vader's other secret apprentice Galen Mareck and the two became fast friends to the point that they were brothers in all but blood.
Naruto and Galen would go on missions to aid the rebellion secretly acquiring supplies such as ships, weapons, food, medicine and people for the Rebellion. Naruto also got his hands on an old Venator-Class Star Destroyer from the Clone Wars Era that he had named the "Kyuubi no Kitsune". He had upgraded and retrofitted it so much that it could classified as a Super Star Destroyer like Vader's flagship the "Executor".
Naruto had also gotten his hands on a bunch of ships and droids from the Clone Wars which included 500 Droid Commandos, 200 Droidekas, 100 Magna Guards, 1,000 Droid Starfighters that were painted white with orange stripes to show they belong to him, 600 Republic Gunships, 150 ARC-170 Starfighters, 75 Y-Wing Bombers *The Clone War ones not the Rebellion ones*, 100 V-19 Torrents, and 300 ATT droid tanks that had been upgraded so that the tanks themselves are droids. Darth Vader had also given him 10,000 Stormtroopers from his personal 501 Legion all of whom were completely loyal to Vader and in turn Naruto when Vader ordered told them that they were to follow Naruto now. They also didn't have Order 66 implanted in them which eliminated the possibility of them betraying Naruto.
Naruto had helped the rebellion get a hold of the plans to the Death Star by stealing them and handing them to Senator Bail Organa who gave them to his daughter Leia Organa. He had warned the Rebellion when their bases were compromised giving them time to get the majority of their forces out before the Empire even arrived.
One of the biggest surprises was when Vader told him that he had learned that Luke Skywalker was his son and Vader ordering him to keep an eye on Luke from the shadows to keep him safe. Finally a little over a month ago the Rebellion had won and defeated the Empire when they blew up the second Death Star above the moon of Endor and killed the Emperor. However it came at a great cost in the form of many rebels dying and the loss of Darth Vader himself who had sacrificed himself to kill the Emperor and save his son Luke therefore redeeming himself and returning to Anakin Skywalker.
As Naruto finished his reflecting on his life he sensed a presence in the room and opened his eyes to see one of the most important people to ever come into his life; the spirit of his late master Shaak Ti smiling at him. Naruto smiles back "Hello Master it is good to finally see you again, I have missed you in the last 5 years" he says smiling at her.
The force ghost of Shaak Ti smiles back "Indeed it is good to see you again too Naruto and I am proud of all that you have done" she says smiling proudly at Naruto "However I am here because the force has found a way to go back in time and possibly prevent the rise of the Empire" she says shocking Naruto before continuing "In the outer reaches of the Maw a Worm Hole has formed that only forms once every 4000 years that allows the someone to go back in time when they pilot their ship into it" she says causing Naruto's eyes to nearly pop out of his skull.
Naruto just stares at Shaak Ti "You mean that if I pilot my ship into the Worm Hole I will be able to go back in time to the Clone Wars and prevent the downfall of the Jedi Order and the Republic itself?" he asks thinking this is too good to be true.
Shaak Ti nods "Yes that is correct, and the force has said that you will be flung into a turning point during the Clone War. However time is limited because the Worm Hole will only be open for a short time" she says.
Naruto gets up and bows to Shaak Ti "Thank you for telling me this master I will inform my friends Galen and Luke about this immediately so that we may set out" he says.
Shaak Ti merely chuckles "There is no need, Master Yoda and Anakin Skywalker are telling them as we speak" she says causing Naruto to face plant and her to chuckle some more.
Naruto gets up and rubs the back of his neck while chuckling "I should have known" he mutters before smiling at Shaak Ti "I will get in contact with them immediately Master" he says before walking over to the spirit of Shaak Ti and giving her a hug as best he could with her being a ghost surprising her "I promise you that I will save the Jedi Order and the Republic Master" he says with a smile "I will also save you Master for you became more than a Master to me, you became a second mother to me and one of my biggest regrets has been not being able to tell you before you were killed" he says as a few tears leak from his eyes.
Shaak Ti is shocked by Naruto's statement before she smiles lovingly and wraps her arms around him "I know you will Naruto for I believe in you, and I came to see you as a son during the years I taught you" she says with a few tears falling down her cheeks.
They both stay like that for a few minutes until Naruto backs away and smiles "Now I better get going" he says wiping a few tears from his cheeks and smiling "But I will see you soon mother" he says getting a nod from Shaak Ti before she disappears.
Naruto leaves his chambers and rides the turbolift to the command bridge of his flagship the "Kyuubi no Kitsune" and walks out when the doors open catching the attention of one of the officers who salutes him "Captain on Deck!" the officer yells getting the attention of everyone else on the bridge who stand up and salute Naruto.
Naruto smiles "At ease" he says causing the crew to resume their duties while the officer who noticed him walks up to him "Admiral Rann set a course for Coruscant" he says getting a nod from the now named Admiral Rann who orders the crew to set a course for Courscant.
Naruto walks over to the ship wide communications and turns it on "Attention everyone this is the Captain speaking, a few minutes ago I received a visit from my late master Jedi Master Shaak Ti" he says as everyone onboard stops what they are doing to listen "She informed me that a Worm Hole has opened up in the outer reaches of The Maw that will allow us to go back in time to the Clone Wars and give a chance to prevent the Empire from ever being formed" he says causing many of the crew to drop what they were holding "That's right we have a chance to save countless lives. However this will be a one way trip meaning that we will be stuck in the past" he says.
Naruto sighs slightly "I know what some of you are thinking and I will say it now you all have a choice; you can go with me though the Worm Hole, or you can get off when we reach Coruscant. However I will say this now; I will not hold it against anyone who decides not to go as this is a life changing decision that is all" he says before he turns off the comms and turns to the bridge crews who all have determination in their eyes.
Admiral Rann walks up to Naruto "Sir I believe I can speak for the bridge that we will follow you to hell itself and are with you isn't that right everyone" he says before turning to the bridge crew who all give a cheer before going back to their duties.
Naruto smiles "Thank you Travesh you have always been there for me since I first got this ship; now I have to get in contact with Galen and Luke so please inform me when we reach Coruscant" he says getting a nod from Travesh before he enters the turbolift and returns to his chambers to get in contact with Luke and Galen.
Naruto reaches his chambers and turns on the holo-comms and holograms of Luke Skywalker and Galen Merrick appear "So I take it both of you were contacted about the Worm Hole" he asks getting nods from both of them "Good I don't know about you two but I am taking the Kyuubi no Kitsune and going through the Worm Hole because if there is even a chance of this working I am taking it" he says with determination.
Galen nods "I agree and will be going with you where are we going to meet up?" he asks.
Naruto smiles "I am on my way to Coruscant where anyone onboard my ship who doesn't want to go can get off as I gave them the choice after explaining the situation to them, I should reach Coruscant in two days" he says getting a nod from Galen who agrees to meet him there.
Naruto then turns to Luke "Luke I think you should stay behind" he says causing Luke's eyes to widen and as he is about to say something Naruto cuts him off "Luke just listen you are too important for this mission and need to stay here to rebuild the Jedi Order after all we aren't even 100% sure this will work and if all three of us go and it fails then no one will be left to rebuild the Jedi Order" he says getting a nod from Galen.
Luke thinks for a few minutes "You're right Naruto I will stay behind and rebuild the Jedi Order, good luck my friend and may the force be with you" he says before signing off.
Naruto turns to Galen "So I will see in you 2 days and let's hope this works" he says getting a nod from Galen before he signs off. Naruto just sighs and runs his hand through his hair "I hope this works" he says before getting in bed and going to sleep.
2 days later the Kyuubi no Kitsune is in orbit above Coruscant and Naruto is standing on the bridge waiting for Galen to reach the bridge after he just docked. Naruto smiles when he thinks back to when the entire crew stood before him in the hangar a few hours ago and told him that they were all with him. Naruto turns to see the turbolift doors open and smiles seeing Galen walk out *He is in his standard outfit from the first game but his hair is a little longer* "Galen good to see you ready to change history?" he asks with a smile.
Galen just smiles back "Sounds like fun especially since knowing you will get into a bunch of clusterfucks" he says messing with Naruto.
Naruto just sweatdrops "You're never going to let me live down the time we fell into a huge nest of Rancors are you" he says with a deadpan expression.
Galen just laughs "I don't know considering we will likely get into situations that make that look like a picnic on Naboo there is no telling" he says getting a snicker from Admiral Rann.
Naruto just sighs before turning to Admiral Rann "Admiral set course for the Worm Hole" he says getting a nod from Rann as he turns to the crew and they set a course for the Worm Hole before entering hyperspace.
2 hours later the Kyuubi no Kitsune exits hyperspace in front of the worm hole and Naruto turns on the ship wide communication systems "Attention everyone we have reached the worm hole, all hands are to report to battle stations as we have no idea exactly when we will be arriving and I would rather not arrive into a full-scale battle with our pants down that is all" he says before turning off the comms.
Naruto turns to see Galen smirking at him "What its better safe than sorry" he says with a raised eyebrow.
Galen just chuckles "Knowing your luck I'm willing to bet a thousand credits that we will arrive into a full-scale battle" he says with a smirk knowing that Naruto's luck of trouble finding him they will most likely end up right in the middle of a battle.
Naruto just sighs "Fine you're on" he says before turning to the viewport "Enter the worm hole" he says as the ship enters the worm hole and everything goes black for a minute before it reveals they arrive in the past and upon seeing what is in front of him he merely sighs before handing Galen who is smirking a thousand credits.
Right in front of them is a large fleet of Republic and Separatist ships engaging each other and Naruto can only think "I hate my luck sometimes, and why is that when it comes to gambling in general I have the devil's luck but for some reason trouble always finds me" before he uses the force to sense if there are any Jedi among the Republic forces and smiles when he senses some and one in particular and begins issuing orders.
