Star Wars
The Last Jedi
Author's Note: This is a revision treatment of the Last Jedi story-line. It's going to have the same general structure as Last Jedi, but I am going modify a lot of the scenes.
The First Order Star Destroyers appeared suddenly and descended upon the Resistance's planetary base. General Hux smiled as he looked down on the planet. He would finally make up for his failure to defend Starkiller Base.
"We have caught them completely unprepared," the admiral said amused.
"This is where we snuff out the Resistance once and for all," Hux said confidently.
Resistance fighters composed of X-wings, Y-wings, and A-wings rose from the planet and sped towards the First Order armada. Tie fighters came out to meet them in mass. Poe led an X-wing squadron against the Tie fighters as the sides became mixed up.
"Protect the bombers," Poe ordered referring to the Y-wing fighters.
"Rodger, Red leader," they said back to him.
"Red-three, Red-seven, cover me," Poe said to them.
"On our way," they replied.
Poe went off on his own and began blasting Tie fighters one-by-one as two other X-wings escorted him. "Make a hole," Poe ordered as the Y-wings approached General Hux's Star Destroyer. X-wings swarmed Hux's Star Destroyer blasting out the shield generators on top of the bridge.
"We've lost shields," a bridge officer informed Hux.
"Focus on the bombers!" Hux screamed at them.
Poe and his escort engaged the Star Destroyer's surface cannons destroying them one-by-one. The Y-wing squad launched missiles against the Star Destroyer creating an electromagnetic pulse that disabled the Star Destroyer. Hux's bridge went dark as all electronic devices went offline.
"That's how you do it," Poe said pleased.
"Give me bridge power now!" Hux said furious.
The First Order Dreadnought powered up their twin cannons and targeted the base. "Auto-canons ready, Sir," a bridge crew officer said.
"Fire on the base," Captain Canady ordered.
The Dreadnought fired on the Resistance base with twin beams. The beams went straight for the base but were deflected off a powerful shield. "No damage," a bridge crew officer informed the Dreadnought captain.
"Impossible. How could they have set up their shields so quickly unless they knew we were coming," Captain Canady said stunned.
"Shields are holding," a female Resistance officer told Leia. She smiled knowingly. "Fire our cannons," she ordered.
Ground cannons from different locations on the planet fired on the First Order fleet. Star Destroyers were hit with significant damage. "I'm taking command of the fleet," Captain Canady said as Hux's ship remained disabled. "Send our fighters to destroy those cannons," he ordered.
"That will leave our ships defenseless, captain," an officer objected.
"We have surface cannons don't we?" the captain asked impatiently.
Tie fighters left the battlefield went down to the planet. "Stay on the Dreadnought," Poe ordered. "Knock out those surface cannons."
X-wing fighters engaged the Dreadnought avoiding surface laser cannons. Poe led the squadron in destroying surface cannons one-by-one. A few X-wing fighters were destroyed as surface cannons fired wildly at them.
"They won't penetrate our armor," his XO told Canady.
"No, they're after our surface cannons," he said outraged. "Power up our auto-cannons for another strike," he ordered.
A reserve group of Tie fighters went after Poe and his squadron. Poe's escort fighters were destroyed by Tie fighters as he approached the last surface cannon. Tie fighters then engaged Poe damaging his rear.
"See what you can do, BB-8," Poe said to the droid.
The droid went inside the fighter and began working on the damage. BB-8 used his arms to repair the motherboard giving Poe his weapons control back. "Good job," Poe said pleased and blasted the last surface cannon.
Gen. Hux could only watch helplessly as Poe's fighters created small explosions on the surface of the Dreadnought. Y-wing fighters then came in and fired missiles onto the Dreadnaught creating powerful explosions.
Captain Canady gave a look of disgust as the explosions ripped through his ship and then overtook his bridge. Leia watched a hologram as the disabled Dreadnought was gutted from the inside with fiery explosions. The base crew cheered upon seeing it. "The Dreadnought is down!"
Meanwhile, Tie fighters took out the cannons on the surface preventing any further damage to the First Order armada. Power became restored on Hux's ship. "Their shields are down. We can bombard them," his admiral suggested.
"Get us closer. Destroy their base and obliterate all life on this planet!" Hux shouted.
The First Order armada came closer to the planet to coordinate a barrage on the planet. Leia watched patiently as the First Order came closer. "Should we raise shields?" an officer asked her.
"Not yet," Leia said tapping her finger on the desk. "Tell Poe to disengage."
"General, we still have more ships. If we don't keep up the attack, the base will be lost," Poe protested.
"Trust me, Poe," Leia said.
Poe hesitated but gave the order. "All craft disengage."
Resistance fighters fled from the Star Destroyers. "They realize it's hopeless against the First Order," Hux mused. "Prepare to fire."
"General?" a Resistance officer questioned her as she stared at the screen.
"Do it," she said finally.
Cloaked mines in low orbit suddenly exploded near the First Order armada. The explosions created shockwaves that severely damaged the Star Destroyers. The First Order armada was in ruins as the mines took their toll. "Fire on them now!" Hux screamed.
"Sir, we don't have weapons control. We must retreat," the admiral told him.
"We are the First Order! We don't retreat!" Hux shouted enraged.
Leia smiled at her success. Several Star Destroyers were disabled and exploding from the mines. "Well, I think it's time for us to leave don't you think?" she said to her staff.
"Transports are ready," a staff officer told her.
"Very good," Leia said pleased. "Let's go C-3P0. We're not going to leave you behind."
"It never crossed my mind," C-3P0 replied.
Leia and C-3P0 came upon rows of transport ships. "I will be on the last one," she insisted.
Hux was beyond infuriated at the state of his fleet. "Send our Storm troopers down to the base and kill everyone," he ordered.
"Yes, Sir," the Admiral replied.
Transport ships filled with Storm troopers headed down to the Resistance base. Once they came to the Resistance base, they immediately started firing in all directions. Captain Phasma emerged from one of the transport ships and looked around. The Resistance base had been completely abandoned. Carefully moving through the base, Captain Phasma discovered replicas of transports, fighters, and equipment.
"It's all fake," she realized.
Leia and C-3P0 entered the last transport and shot off into space on the opposite side of the planet facing away from the First Order fleet. They docked on a Resistance cruiser. Poe and his fighters settled in the docking bay.
Poe grinned as BB-8 came down from his fighter. "I knew you could do it," he said to the droid.
The rest of the fighter pilots cheered their victory. "Gather around," Poe said to them. "We won a great victory today but the war is far from over. The First Order will not forget this. We must always be ready for the next fight. Remember those who we lost. Remember their sacrifice," Poe said to the group.
Leia entered the bridge of the cruiser. "Let's move," she ordered.
The Resistance ships went to light speed and disappeared.
General Hux seethed with anger as he realized the Resistance had escaped. "Supreme Leader Snoke wants a status report," a bridge officer said to him.
Hux gave a look of fear as he realized what that meant. "I shall meet the Supreme Leader personally. Carry on," Hux said to the admiral.
