On Coroscaunt the two Jedi split up and go to find ,thinking with his stomach,went into a diner and ordered Jawa ,Galen was searching the sith rehabilitation tower."Yes sir,Lord Sidious is here,room 11243",said a droid at the data soon caught up with his master as soon as he reached room 11243."I sorta got held up at Dex's Diner,I got some Jawa Juice for you though,Master"."Thank you."The doors slid open and they walked into a trap,armed though."A room full of MagnaGuards,how entertaining".They were all turned to rubble with a few slices,slashes,and thrusts.

"They are there,Master",said Vader,to the holographic Sidious."Thank you Lord Vader",said holo-Sidious."If only he knew who I was talking about"."SIDIOUS!!!!!!!!!",yelled Galen as loud as he could.A red saber came to life behind Merek,but Galvon was blocked with the cortosis armor he had built at age 4."Not today old man".Another red saber activatited and so did a green three fought long and hard but the Jedi won and killed the Sith Lord."Next stop Vader".

"The force presence of Lord Sidious' has disappeared,he can't've died by the hands of two teenagers!",scowled then the chamber doors opened."What is it Admiral?",asked Vader sternly."Lord Vader,we have located the jedi on their way to the planet of Bespin.",said admiral Niotch."Very well admiral,set a course for Bespin"."Yes mi'lord".

Vader was getting impatient waiting for his apprentice,his former apprentice,and Luke to arrive at the carbonite chambers.(A/N:im going to skip the battle,as we all know what happens)Luke Skywalker,Galen Merek,AND Han Solo were all in ONE carboite encasing,thanks to Veir's powerful force-hold,they were soon drugged and the drug cut off the jedi's use of the force,while they were still the apprentice of Vader and the Hand of Vader(A/N:Mara Jade is the Emperors hand so Vader needs a hand,almost literally.)Vier and Vader were given special recognition by the Emperor,a tank-load of scowling and argued about the risks that might've all this,some bata tank healing,with advanced technology,he set off to find his girlfriend on Naboo,who is VERY hard to find,which is why he had a homing beacon planted in her speeder and located her at the Palace of soon as he stepped a breath near the castle he was greeted with unnessary welcomes and requests for ,using the force to seal the door,his girlfreind,who is incedently,the Queen of Naboo,ran up to greet 'd been apart on the case of him finishing off the last of the Jedi,and her having to maintain peace in the city of went out,using a small hidden passageway to Lake Retreat."I don't get it"said Amy,"Why do they just send you on missions and not Lord Vader?''"

"Nooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!",yelled had died,he realised,when he suddenly gets an explosion of rage,raw power,enough to destroy an entire planetary Ground Rebels had reached him and said"Hands in the air,Now!""You will pay for your crimes rebel scum!"He suddenly ignited all of his four lightsabers,being part droid,and sliced his way to the landing rebels had landed there,and were celebrating."I'd hate to be a party-crasher,but you've commited crimes."All eyes faced the hooded stranger then burst apart into laughter,and they were engaged in a battle."Take cover"yelled a rebel who was cut rest decided to try and run for the door."Leaving so soon?",asked Veir."Uh-oh".They fired several blaster bolts at the sith,only to have them sent straight mechanical arms moved in a way that the clones who saw Genral Greivous slice apart their brothers without remorse were the ones who knew how deadly his arms sent a wave of lighting at them,which hit the barrels of their blasters,giving them a cut them all in half with his two double-sabers.

As soon as Vier landed in the Death Star's Hanger,he saw Luke and Galen take the nearest Imperial ,he threw a homing beacon at the shuttle as they sealed the door ,Mara Jade came around the corner."Where are they?",asked Mara."They are in an Imperial shuttle.",said Veir." have been instructed to follow them by the Emperor himself."As soon as they entered and sealed the door shut,Mara suddenly realised that Amy was an effort to try and win his heart,she attempted to comfort said,"I felt Amy die through the Force.""Oh yeah?So she is dead.I can always find another."he said,grinning at Mara with a wink,letting her know he felt the same way about her as she did ,as they set the auto pilot to follow the homing beacon,they went to the the living soon gave him a shower of kisses and he returned them with , as the ship shook suddenly,they broke apart and went to the cockpit ,just to see they were over Kashyyk,rebel territory."We're being pulled into a tractor beam!",exclaimed Mara,"Lets get into those smuggler compartments now."So,as they got in the compartments,and the beam pulled them in,they shut down the ship,and ejected 2 escape , the ship landed,hard,and then an advanced scan team cam they left thier sabers in the compartments earlier,they got them out,Veir reswapping crystals,and activaited scan crew heard,and they looked around,scared out of their ,they suddenly passed had used the force ability, and Mara leapt out of the compartment,and hid the crew a sealed compartment."Look out!It's Vader's apprentice and The Emperor's Hand!",exclaimed Luke and had just rebel leaders,looking through the hanger viewpoint,saw Galen and were had seen him ,Juno Eclipse came to the window and Galen was alive and,after being frozen in carbonite,blind,but she seen the two Sith approaching him and the other jedi boy, being trained in an Imperial academy,she found a sniper,and attempted to snipe them when Genral Kota stopped her."If you try to strike them down,then you will surley die.",said Kota."Yes but he is alive and getting attacked",argued Juno."He will win,my dear lady,for he is a powerful jedi,as is his new freind.",said ,Luke,Mara,Veir,and Galen were engaged in a deadly lightsaber apperead that the Sith would win,when all of a sudden,Kota joined the used a Force Grip on the two sith and they broke pinned Mara down and she said,"Do it,you were destined to destroy me."But he just shut down his lightsaber and helped her sensed his feelings toward her and she used them to her took his hand,and when she came up,Luke went down."And for your information,Skywalker,I am NOTavailable to any jedi."Galen over heard her,and seen who she loved,,Veir and her were sith he just got them into a Force grip and dropped them in a sensed their hatred at the jedi.'She and Vier were raised by the sith,but born to jedi,like I was',he thought to himself.

"Galen?",called Luke."Yes?",replied Galen."I know that you sense my feelings for the female sith."Then,Kota walked in."Yes we sensed it alright",he said,"but it isn't the jedi way."Meanwhile,Vier and Mara were pacing in their cell,waiting for Vader to reply to their distress ,they sat down to meditate on the saw that they would force the rebels to go into hiding,but aslo saw where Yoda and Obi-wan Kenobi were the ship shook as if it were being fired had created a force energy so lage,the entire ship became soon realised the doors were now open,partly because of Luke about to come in,and the amount of the Force had fried the ship's entire system,weapons,controls, realised that the ship was now vunerable to attack when the Executor came out of took the chance and made their they got passed the doors,Mara knocked out an unsuspecting Luke."Nice kick.",commented Veir."Thanks.",replied they made their way to the hanger,Mara remembered the rebel leaders and they went back to get they got there,Juno grabbed a blaster rifle,but never got to use it,seening as to she was held in a Force rebels were carried into the ship,which took off towards the they landed,Vader was waiting for them."I trust your mission was a sucess?",asked Vader."Yes,my Master",said the rebel leaders came down the ramp.'Good thing this mask is on',thought Vader,or everyone would not only see him die,but they'd see his shock."I am impressed young ones."commented and Veir cleared their throats and kneeled before an arriving chuckled with his trademark chuckle." good Mara and Vier.",he said."Yes Lord Sidious,but we also learned the locatoin of the last two jedi,Obi-Wan and is on Tattoine,while Yoda on Dagobah.",informed Veir."Very good,Lord Veir.",said Sidious.
