Expedition to the game


Deep space

In space no one can hear a person scream in the vast, but cold emptiness of space as billions objects inhabit space itself like planets, stars and so on. Two large looking alien ships are side by side in which no one knows why and then all of a sudden two beings appeared as one of them has white hair, with black shadow like eyes and light blue skin with red cloak and some type of armor as he is holding a staff. The other looks almost the same with white hair and light blue skin he has clothing on and is holding a staff as well.

Who are these people?

One of them is Taneleer Tivan alias the Collector as he is one of the Elders of the Universe For millions of years, the Collector lived on an unknown world with his wife and child, spending his days in thought and contemplation. Over three billion years ago, when his wife, Matani Tivan, lost the will to live and relinquished her immortality, the Collector realized he would need a hobby to maintain his own sanity, and began collecting interesting artifacts and life forms from around the universe. Eventually, his obsession reached such heights he collected anything he considered rare or valuable often just for the sake of collecting. As such, he has a wide variety of rare or unique items at his disposal.

And the other is The Grandmaster En Dwi Gast whom is the brother of the collector and is one of the Elders of the Universe Although his exact origin is unknown, he is one of the oldest living beings in the universe, coming from one of the first intelligent races to evolve after the Big Bang. He is a cosmic game player whose preferred game is pitting two opposing teams against each other and loves to play games with his brother as he sneered at him for a moment as it is time to play again.

"Is there a reason why," said the Grandmaster "We are out here so far away, it is time to play the game"

"Of course brother," said the collector "And so we shall, as I came across just recently a new galaxy with new players or something I can collect later."

"Such as," raised the brow of the Grandmaster

"Behold brother," said the Collector

The Collector raises his staff and shows images of what he has found as thousands upon thousands of images are shown on multiple of view screens as the Grandmaster looks intrigued at this, including two that would seem to be very interesting and an interesting game it would be. Then the collector stopped showing his brother in what he has found.

"My, my, someone has been busy," said the Grandmaster "How come we never been there before."

"I am at a loss as in why," said the Collector "Oh well more things to collect for me, however that can wait. We can play our game there."

"Works for me," shrugged the shoulders of the Grandmaster "What are the terms of the game?"

"We use one of them as a General," said the Collector as he shows of an image of someone he has chosen

"Agreed," said the Grandmaster "As this one seems fierce enough, although he is a clone of the original and let's have a pre-game pitting the two against a fearsome foe."

"Agree," said the Collector "As many pieces have died already so we can revive anyone we want from the past, or de-age them."

"Agreed," said the Grandmaster "It is only sporting that we have the pieces of the game in play." He paused "Now with all that settled and done it is time to go."

"Indeed," said the Collector "And I will beat you like last time," he smiled

"You cheated," said the Grandmaster "Because you had Spider-man and I hate to lose to you,"

Both of them shook hands in knowing the game has begun and their ships set course for the coordinates to a galaxy and then head off to that place to begin the game.


The Galaxy far, far away

Planet Dagobah

This place is a swamp covered world as it is completely forgotten by many in the galaxy and only a few know of its existence and who dwells here. An X-wing fighter is parked in a clearing in the swamp and not too far away is a hut, inside is a green alien frog like creature is on the bed and is meditating at the moment the other who just walked out is a human male in his 20's in which he is training to be a Jedi like his father as he leans against the wall. He is Luke Skywalker apprentice to Obi-wan Kenobi and Yoda as he is thinking about his father Darth Vader, but has not told Yoda yet about it.

Yoda is deep in mediation until suddenly he opened his eyes and felt a powerful disturbance in the force, something unknown and does not like it one bit. Suddenly he sensed a presence of the dark side, something familiar and ran outside as Luke can sense the dark side as well in which someone is coming. Who could it be? His farther as it hasn't been a full year yet as he will leave soon to rescue Han from the clutches of Jabba the Hutt.

"Sense it strongly you can," said Yoda

"I can master," said Luke "Someone is coming,"

They watch as someone is coming towards them and ignited a red blade, then the person steps out of the shadows as Yoda is shocked at who it is and though he is dead. No it isn't possible, Anakin killed him as an elderly man stepped out of the shadows and smiled at his former master, he is well dressed and is kind of elderly like he was all these years ago.

"Master Yoda," said the man "You haven't aged a bit and who is this boy, kind of reminds me of someone."

"Dooku," said Yoda "How possible it is, killed you were,"

"Yes I did die," said Dooku as he rubbed his neck as there is no scar there "Anakin killed me by the order of my former Master. That is the last I remember and now here I am."

"Stop you I will," said Yoda "Stay back you must Luke, dangerous opponent he is."

"Who is he," asked Luke

"Oh pardon my manners," said Dooku "I am Count Dooku and you are the son of the man who killed me, yes I know because he told me."

"Who told who," said Luke looking confused

"I shall keep that to my self," said Dooku "Now Luke prepare yourself for battle,"

"No?" shouted Yoda

Yoda ran quicker than he has before and ignited his blade as he was about to strike Dooku, but something else happened as he simply vanished just like that.

"Now with him out of the way," said Dooku "We can begin,"

"I have a bad feeling about this," said Luke he ignited his lightsaber


Dantooie: Imperial World

Storm troopers marched across the capitol of Dantooie as bodies of people lay dead at their feet as the city had rebelled against the Empire, but in a losing effort and then all of a sudden breathing is heard in the background as a large black figure appeared in armor as he was one Anakin Skywalker the chosen one, the hero with no fear as he is now the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Vader.

His thoughts were on his son, but he still has a duty to his master and the empire as the Rebels are getting stronger each day, he growled in anger over them as it is just like the Separatists all over again. He doesn't not care for the past anymore, except for his love of Padme and hatred for Kenobi in which he is dead. He strolled along the streets in observing what the storm troopers are doing. They feared him and everyone feared him as he stopped in which he sensed something familiar.

Something familiar that is originating at the grassy plains of Dantooie as it is calling him, Darth Vader decided to go there and see for himself as it annoyed him on end. The storm troopers dared not ask anything from Lord Vader only to obey his every command. It is a long walk as Vader doesn't care for the landscape as he passed by an old Jedi temple there and spotted someone up ahead and is cloaked a Jedi robe. All the Jedi are dead and watched as this cloaked Jedi ignited his blue blade.

"Who are you," roared Vader

"Oh come now Darth," said the man "Or Anakin, as I told you. I shall become more powerful than you can ever imagine."

"What?" roared Vader

The man takes off his cloak as Vader is shocked to see who it is and is only younger as he remembered him, no it is not possible. He killed him; he is dead by his hands. This must be a trick by the Rebels or some clone.

"I killed you," said Vader "Now it is time to kill you again Kenobi"

"We shall see Anakin," said Kenobi "We shall see,"

"DON'T EVER CALL ME THAT NAME," bellowed Vader


Elsewhere

The Collector and the Grandmaster watch the view screens as the two general pieces are in play against the opponents they have chosen in which they know this is just a pre-game match.

"This seems to be a little straight-forward and rather dull," said the Collector

"Perhaps something sporting comes to mind," said the Grandmaster

"Agreed," said the Collector "A challenge to test them,"

"Done" said Grandmaster

Both of them raised their staffs in which to give the combatants a real challenge and to test their general game pieces.
