First off, this is a reboot to the very first fanfiction I've ever written called "RWBY: Arrival of the Imperial Order". So you've read that one, then you'll notice that this story will be much different than the original, cause well that's what a reboot is. Anyways I hope you enjoy this reboot.
On the galactic center Coruscant, the Emperor of the galaxy's first Galactic Empire was at the Imperial Palace; former headquarters of the Jedi Order. Searching through their archives, the Emperor was hoping to find anything of value that could also be of use to him as well. For weeks, the Emperor's troopers had searched each and every log, transmission, record, file, book and data pad until one had found something he thought of would be valuable to Palpatine.
Fascinated at the information the record held, he immediately left for his office in the Palace to make contact with his apprentice, whom he was going to task an operation too.
Above the planet Corellia where the Emperor's apprentice had been overseeing the construction of various Imperial warships, his fleet's commanding officer had come to notify him of Palpatine's transmission.
"Admiral, prepare the fleet. The Emperor only ever contacts when he wants us to move." He said to the officer, walking into his personal quarters where he had kneeled down. "What is thy bidding, my master?"
"Lord Eclipse, I have made a fascinating discovery." He spoke with a slow and toneless voice. "It seems the Jedi had a planet of their own hidden from me." Eclipse had looked up.
"If it was hidden then there would be surviving Jedi there." Eclipse had a helmet which masked his voice.
Palpatine paused for a brief moment as Eclipse continued to stare at him. He was the only one who knew the truth about his apprentice's origins; where he came from and why he worn the helmet that hid his face.
"Master, I could search for this world. I could eliminate any Jedi I find, and their remnants will finally be gone!" Eclipse suggested to his master.
"Mmm. Yes, that would finally be a relief to not deal with them no more." He replied, slightly chuckling.
"Do I have your permission, my master?" He awaited a response.
"Await above Corellia until the Intervention arrives; it will be carrying the information about this lost world." He said as Eclipse bowed down.
"Yes, my master." He said before the transmission had ended.
With that, Eclipse went to find the admiral serving under him who was in fact a woman named Annabelle who served as an admiral within the Republic, and as the leader of the Corellian Defense Fleet before the Clone Wars.
Aside from waiting for the Intervention, both Eclipse and Annabelle were also waiting for their third and fourth warships; the Juggernaut and Valkyrie that were assigned to take on tasks of their own after the main fleet was stationed above Corellia.
"Admiral." Eclipse said as Anna turned around, watching as her superior approached.
"Yes, my lord?" She replied.
"The Emperor has given us a new task. Notify the Intimidator and Persecutor to remain here as security." He gave out orders to her.
"Of course, my lord. I will personally oversee that these orders are carried out." She complied and bowed before walking off.
Unlike some of the other captains in his fleet, Eclipse liked Annabelle the most as she was completely obedient towards him and seemed to have devoted herself to his wishes as well, which was something only a few were capable of doing. While he did not see her beauty with her eyes and appearance as did others, he saw only hatred for the rebellions they had fought together.
Sometime later, the Intervention had finally arrived at Corellia where Eclipse was waiting. The ship's captain contacted Annabelle directly about the information his ship was carrying for Eclipse and that he was sending a shuttle to the Supremacy.
"Thank you, captain. I will send someone to the hangar to pick it up." She turned away from the hologram as she went to find her Lieutenant.
On the command bridge, many of Annabelle's personnel had attended to the various computers and systems in order to maintain the ship, as did every other warship in the Navy. She then found her Lieutenant talking with another officer about the weapon systems, catching their attention as she approached.
"Bransen, I need you to head to the hangar. There's a shuttle carrying information for Lord Eclipse. Bring it to me." Her voice was very soft and mesmerizing, always catching the attention of who she was speaking to.
"Yes, ma'am. Ensign, we'll finish this conversation later. Return to your post." He said to the officer as they nodded.
Anna then went back to the main bridge where she saw Eclipse looking outside of the windows, at the Intervention and the other three Star Destroyers. She approached and stood by him, gazing away at the warships in sight. However, it wasn't the ships she was thinking about. Like others, she always thought about what was under his helmet. No one had ever seen him without it. They were all inseparable, everyone thought.
"I have a feeling the ships in the Fleet will be our only support for the next year, Admiral." He spoke, she turned her head in curiosity.
"What makes you say that, my lord?" She wondered.
If the Jedi had hid a planet, they would have kept it from the Senate for a good reason; if that reason was to hide Jedi then that was a damn good reason. Eclipse only wanted one thing: the absolute and complete destruction of the Jedi. Since their assassination attempt on his master, he hunted Jedi across the galaxy with Grievous; a former Separatist General and ruthless Jedi killer.
"The Emperor has tasked us with finding a lost planet for him." Her curiosity shifted towards attention.
"A lost planet?" Her tone had changed.
"Yes. The information the Intervention came with has more about this lost planet." He looked to the empty space on their left. "When we find this planet, Admiral, you are going to become something more than just an officer; you'll be a Jedi hunter." He spoke with a truthful tone, believing she would be.
"A Jedi hunter, my lord?" She was curious.
"Yes. You'll assist me in hunting down Jedi." He eased her.
As they were talking about the title "Jedi hunter", Bransen became his return to the command bridge to hand the data pad, which included the information of the lost planet, to Anna who would then hand it to Eclipse. However the Jedi's Chief Librarian was able to conduct a failsafe for the information, but couldn't complete it in time as she was killed trying.
Bransen was Force-choked by Eclipse after he was handed the data pad.
"Did you temper with this?!" He attempted to breath for air as he was lifted off the ground. "I can break your neck just as easy!" Eclipse shouted.
"My lord, please." Anna placed her hand on his shoulder. "I know my lieutenants; Bransen wouldn't do such a thing." She said to him.
Bransen was let go as Anna went down on her knees, checking up on her Lieutenant who was coughing and catching his breath. The hum of a Lightsaber had ignited and the red blade stood in front of Anna's face as she just stared at it; she didn't fear death and Eclipse felt that.
"Don't you ever speak up again like that to me, Admiral. Notify Grievous to get back on board before we leave. Set course for Vandor." He then walked away, presumably going to his quarters.
"Yes, my lord." She bowed her head.
With that, she did as ordered. She helped Bransen up and told him to be more careful around Eclipse and went off to tell Grievous to return to the Supremacy as well as sending a message to all other ships within the Fleet to stand-by and prepare their jumps to hyperspace.
As the Fleet entered hyperspace on the way to Vandor, Eclipse mediated in his quarters; dwelling about the task he was given.
— Sometime later - Xiao Long-Rose Family Home, Remnant —
"So after calculating the coordinates needed, you just push this lever forward and you're in hyperspace." Han said to Summer's daughter, who was extremely curious about spaceflight.
"Wow, that's so cool! I wish I could come with you guys! I really wanna see what it looks like in space!" Ruby was very curious about space. She always dreamed of experiencing spaceflight.
"Well who knows, maybe someday you'll own a ship of your own." He replied to the enthusiast girl.
"You really think so?!" She replied with a big great smile. Han only smiled back.
"Ruby! Come inside now. Your mother's leaving now." A voice came from the house.
"Awh.." Ruby said as she left the Falcon.
Before coming back on board, Summer had a small talk with Ruby; saying that this was going to be the last time she would leave and that once she comes back, she would stay home for good. Han and Chewie had overheard the conversation from inside.
"So once you come back, you'll stay home for good?"
"Yes, my dear Rose. Just this one last time, I need to finish one thing then I'll be home."
With that, Summer and Ruby hugged each other. The former giving the latter a kiss on the forehead. Once closing the ramp, Han and Chewie started up the Falcon, checking on most of the essential systems before needing to take off. They were joined by Summer in the cockpit.
"So we're going to speak about your friend Lando about the coaxium, right?" She asked about their next move.
"Yeah, Chewie and spoke about that." Han replied as Chewie responded in Shyriiwook. "Hey, you said so yourself, Chewie, okay?"
Summer sighed. "What is it now?"
Han smiled. "We're going to see Jabba." He said as the Falcon had exit Remnant's atmosphere.
"What? Han, no. Do you have any idea what Jabba will do to us if we go to him without his coaxium?" She protested.
"Oh, come on. Its going to be fine, okay? When have I stirred you wrong, huh?" He replied.
Summer only sighed, which Han took as a yes to going to see Jabba on Tatooine. As the ship approached the minimal distance from the planet, the smuggler and Wookiee had calculated the jump to Tatooine where Jabba had made the headquarters of his criminal empire.
Sometime after their jump to lightspeed, the Millennium Falcon arrived above Tatooine where they were met with an Imperial fleet made of 32 starships. They were told to dock with the Supremacy and not to make any sudden movements or maneuver away from the Fleet.
Escorted by four TIE Fighters, the Falcon docked with the Supremacy as ordered. Soon after, the ship was overridden by the Imperials, therefore preventing Han and Chewie's control over the Falcon. They were met with Darth Eclipse himself and Admiral Annabelle, who was his right-hand woman and commanding officer of the Fleet.
"Welcome home, Corporal." Anna said as stormtroopers arrested the three.
Eclipse went up to Summer, examining her. "Yes. The Entrepreneur was right. You are out of this galaxy. We have need for you." He said as Anna ordered the troopers to take Han and Chewie to the brig while Summer was going to be taken somewhere else.
