This is the last chapter for 'Act 1'by the way so I won't update for a while until I write the rest of the story out. Shouldn't take long but I am making this chapter really long so enjoy. All this chapter will contain is the battle scene and the aftermath.
Thanks as ever for the reviews and favourites I enjoy seeing them.
By the way I will explain about Sirius, Remus and any friends you know in the harry potter world next chapter, so don't be disappointed I haven't killed them off yet.
Act 1
Chapter 10
Previously
As I as stared out in to the sky, I thought this would be my permanent home away from war. War, Dad often spoke about war but I never thought I would experience it. Now I wish I never had 4 billion innocent humans around the world dead. Juno, my mother for all intensive purposes was dead. I could feel my anger boiling up inside me but I pushed it down for now.
"Vader's going to pay" I said to myself quietly. Just as I said that a dark look crossed my face and Hermione saw.
"Harry what's wrong; you have been off since you heard the news in the prophet this morning" Hermione said
I sighed before saying "My adoptive mot….mother di…died" I said barely holding back tears before letting loose a sob. When Hermione saw this she drew me in an embrace in her arms, while I put my face in her shoulder crying for the first time in 10 years.
"It's ok….it's ok" she said soothingly while slowly rubbing my back reassuringly.
Both of us were momentarily distracted by a giant crack coming from the sky, signalling the sound barrier breaking. Looking up at the sky at the same time we saw 10 giant alien ships at the same time of two different designs. One was clearly a robotic like design, designed as a carrier and the other set of 5 ships were obviously designed for warfare. Big and bulky with 3 sets of engines either side. Not imperial design though, one was obviously my father's fleet. There were thousands of landing craft coming to Hogwarts as well. The war had come to Hogwarts.
"Harry, we have to tell Dumbledore quickly." Hermione said recovering from the surprise. She grabbed my sleeve before flaming to Dumbledore's office.
Jumping to the roof when we surprised him by our entry we said "Sir, the alien ships are in the sky."
Dumbledore's eyes widened before turning to various portraits and telling them to warn the ministry and something called the order of the phoenix. "How many of them did you see" Dumbledore said. "We might able to defend against them with ministry Auror's and unspeakable's and we must evacuate the school at once"
I interrupted him saying "SIR, there's no point, all of muggle and magical Britain is being attacked. My dad's fleet is helping as well as the rebels and there's no time to explain so hurry and prepare all who can fight." I said to Dumbledore before flaming to the common room to collect my lightsaber. I gave Hermione and Ron their first lightsaber a few months ago when they started their training so they would be of help. I flamed back to the entrance hall 10 minutes later to find orderly rows of stone statues guarding the perimeter of Hogwarts with 1000-2000 Auror's and 500 unspeakable's from all over the world or what's left of it strategically placed all around the perimeter of the castle.
"This is bad" I said before there was another sonic boom of the sound barrier breaking and looking towards the sky there was 10 imperial cruisers ahead full speed with landing crafts towards the same field the Rebels and my dad's droids were.
Now
Galen's point of view
"When we move forward my army will go first as I have over 15,000 droids lined up and ready to go, you hold the lines from the back and advance at the same speed when we reach the checkpoint, we have the advantage of numbers. If we overrun them, then we might able to win with your help of course, skywalker." I said to the group of rebel and droid commanders around the holographic table in front.
"Yes, I like that plan, what about the battle overhead"
"Don't worry about that, my double will handle it and I have kept my droid proxy up there, he is of no use to me here."
"OK, YOU HEARD THE MAN GET TO WORK" a commander who was listening to my briefing said. Everyone left at that point but the Jedi stayed.
"Yes, skywalker" I said to the blond man in front of me.
"I…..Sense a dark presence here…I don't know how to describe it, I don't even know if it's dark. It is clouding my senses."
I chuckled at that before saying "Yeah it'll take some getting used to but as I said before they are just like us, they just use the force differently. Here look I'll show you" I cut my arm lightly before taking my wand out and saying "sana vulnus". The wound healed up like it was stitching itself up before closing fully. Luke's eyes widened at that before saying.
"That's amazing"
I chuckled at the Kids enthusiasm saying "yeah I thought when I landed here and started to learn myself, I'll have to teach you sometime"
He was about to respond before a droid and a rebel pilot came in to our dark makeshift command centre.
"Sir" They both said at exactly the same time. One computerised voice and one very human voice.
I nodded for the rebel to continue. "Sir, the local military has scrambled their military to this place as fast as they can, we told them to stand by and just use their naval forces to attack the imperial ships."
"Good" Luke said before I continued and said.
"Tell them to move any heavy weaponry and vehicles to this place though with their help the Imperials don't stand a chance."
"Will do sir" the pilot said.
The pilot left before I nodded for my droid to continue with what information he has for me.
"General, enemy ships have been detected entering the atmosphere." Right on cue there was a gigantic bang in the sky.
I went in to 'commander' mode and said to the droid "form the army up, have you finished deploying the turrets yet."
"Yes general" the droid said before he left. This particular droid was a 'general' droid, meaning they had no ability to fight but had all known battle tactics old and new that has ever been performed. My other type of droid I have designed it based on the super battle droids for the CIS, except they were more heavily armoured, more intelligent, had a head, they could manoeuvre easier and I got rid of that damned wrist blaster. The droid stood at 2.5 metres tall it is also painted matte black and family crest of Marek on it. Just like my lord ship on this planet.
"Luke, I will need your help defeating Vader together we might be able to beat him" I said to the kid next to me. I saw his face pale before he said.
"Yeah, if we defeat him we can go after the emperor next. This might be our only chance to usurp power away from the Imperials. "
I nodded and went outside before running to the battlefield a short few metres away. I saw my droid lined up in units across a mile stretch, with makeshift barriers put up behind them to protect the rebel forces. My forces we protected by Ray shielding so I didn't have to worry. The blaster turrets were used by the rebels and my tanks were on the left and right flanks protecting against any armoured attack.
I turned to Luke and said "You ready kid" before seeing thousands upon thousands of storm troopers emerge from the trees on the other side of the clearing. Some Barriers are dropped from the sky for cover, though they didn't do much as my army and the turrets behind started firing at the opposing side. Multifarious amounts of blaster bolts from both sides fired on each other. The sound of blaster rifles firing constantly from my army was reverberating across the battlefield. Their blasters weren't doing much to the many series of ray shielding I had on my side; they wouldn't fall anytime soon as well. The storm troopers barriers started to decay after a minutes worth of continuous fire before I ordered my artillery to fire.
"Fire the artillery on the middle section of the army." I said through my communicator to my artillery tanks.
The rumble of the artillery firing from miles behind me was rocking the earth beneath me before a series of flashes was seen in the distance before they impacted the ground quivering and shaking from the explosion which devastated the entire middle section of the army. The artillery rounds, all 20 of them landed with the ground swaying from the impact. At least 700 stormtroopers died from that attack leaving them temporarily exposed and vulnerable.
"ADVANCE"I shouted through my communicator. Finally with an almighty resounding march my droids moved forward with the ray shields moving with them.
"You coming kid" I said to Luke.
"You know it "he said with a smile. The rebels started moving forward steadily behind my army at that moment before 2 AT-AT's appeared out of the trees and started firing on my troops. The ray shielding was holding but wouldn't last long.
"Move divisions tango and delta to destroy the enemy AT-AT's" I said through my communicator to the 'general, droid, while calmly jogging slightly to catch up with the rapidly advance of the droids with the rebels behind me and Luke beside me. You can say droids are weak but they sure are effective, the front lines of the enemy had collapsed and were fleeing making way for the next couple of units. They started firing as well before the ray shielding collapsed, leaving my droids open for blaster bolt fire. However the stormtroopers were incredibly ineffective against large open armies and they were very inaccurate rarely hitting their intended target. My droids had the advantage now as they reached their target tearing down their barriers making the stormtroopers flee in desperation firing back occasionally. The AT-AT's were getting on my nerves because they destroyed my entire right flanks counting out the tanks who were circling round now.
Divisions tango and delta consisting of 10 Armored Assault Tanks in each division advanced and attacked each AT-AT from the sides, the left and the right. As the amour was so thick on these vehicles I just heard Luke say "the weak point is underneath the main body in between the legs, I destroyed one last year on Hoth with my lightsaber." So I ordered the tanks to fire there, they were destroyed before long after three-quarters of my tanks was destroyed.
The main bulk of their army was on the run and I didn't even have to get involved. The Imperials were truly weak and stupid with their tactics, they were like barbarians disorganised and completely without order.
"That was too easy" Luke said from beside me as my army was pursuing the stormtroopers through the forest.
"I know, I can't put my finger on it, I read the rebel report on Hoth, they completely obliterated the defenders. I don't get it there has to be something more at play here."I said to the young Jedi before me.
"That was not the main bulk of the army that landed, they have to be somewh...THE CASTLE" Luke said as his eyes widened as indeed he was right as I heard a distant explosion coming from the school with smoke rising from one its tall towers.
My counterpart Starkiller as he called himself then ruined my day and said to me "Vader's fleet is too strong, we have already lost half of our fleet we need to get out of here now, the in-atmosphere battle isn't going too well but there's no more reinforcements the 10 imperial star destroyers have been destroyed though. If you're going to evacuate anyone do it now." in a concerned voice.
I looked at Luke and made a split second decision before turning to the castle and ordering all the army to Hogwarts. The battle was still had to be fought and Vader needed to die.
Harry's point of View
Standing with Hermione in the courtyard, we heard the rumble of distant explosions where the battle was taking place. Before long the battle had to come to Hogwarts, with at least 12000 white armored aliens with muggle like guns on them. Although I was familiar with these weapons the rest of the magical world wasn't. At their lead was a towering Black clad figure at least 6ft 5 if not more. What really disturbed me was the dark presence that was leaking from him and I knew instantly who he was.
"Vader" I said under my breath. I brought my lightsaber out and ignited it in my right hand and my wand in my other arm. Hermione just brought out her wand not feeling comfortable enough to use her lightsaber, Ron did the same. Although Hogwarts had a garrison of 4000 including the students we would stand no chance against these large numbers.
The Auror's and unspeakable's were positioned on the equally around the two entrances to Hogwarts. An impenetrable ward barrier was erected around the castle moments ago by the many that were at Hogwarts stopping any further advance by the Imperials. Though what they thought impenetrable could actually be breached by sustained blaster fire and that was exactly what Vader ordered to happen. Countless numbers of blaster fire struck the wards. As each bolt hit the barrier a small explosion happened, followed by a loud rumble which we in the center heard. Looking around at the faces in the courtyard each had a different expression on their face. Some looked frightened at fighting an alien force, others looked excited, scared, and anxious and the rest were mostly angry. Blood superiority that has plagued the wizarding world for so long took no part in this battle as each was united at trying to defeat an alien foe whilst defending their homelands. The likes of Dumbledore the most powerful wizard alive stood toe to toe with ex death eaters like Lucius Malfoy. My arch-enemy Draco Malfoy standing next to so-called Mud bloods like they were brothers. Fear is the most successful weapon that you can utilize successfully.
When the barrier came down cascading on to us, the stone statues that stood guarding the bridge ran forward at such a speed I wouldn't have thought possible. They collided with the stormtroopers moments later and began smashing in to them with stone swords, maces and axes. At least 50 stormtroopers died from the first charge. I took a look at Vader as one attacked him; he simply brought out his lightsaber and cleaved it in two. Using the force he lifted up another with the force and crushed it while throwing it miles away. Both of these actions were so swift it was as if it was in a blink of an eye. He was surprisingly agile for a cyborg. The statues were wreaking havoc in imperial lines. Blood was spurting heads decapitating from the stormtroopers. A giant AT-AT appeared from nowhere and started firing on the stone statues. With every step the machine took you could feel the vibrations from here. It was a monstrous machine designed for one purpose and that was war as well as carrying 100's more stormtroopers inside. Firing swiftly on the statues they were soon dispatched and Vader and his army carried on forwards with him at the helm leading the charge.
1000's of spells came raining down from the various towers and perimeter of Hogwarts at that moment. I felt a giant rumble followed by a deafening series of loud booms and the ground shook as many various explosive spells impacted the enemy army killing hundreds and wounding 1000's. Vader's army was hopelessly outmatched without some form of artillery. As if god stuck his fingers up at me 4 more AT-AT's appeared and all of them fired at various positions around Hogwarts wreaking havoc. Vader continued his march forward without slowing stormtroopers following. As he was walking across the bridge the Auror's tried a last ditched attempt at slowing the enemy army by firing thousands of mixed spells ranging from stunners to the killing curse. Barreling down on the stormtroopers once again Vader just batted away any that reached him with his lightsaber while many of the stormtroopers fell. He still didn't slow, he just continued walking as if he was hiking on a mountain.
The stormtroopers were finally in range and started to fire at the defenders, outnumbering the wizards by 15:3. Contact, an almost hand to hand fight was going on. Vader mercilessly cutting down any that opposed him whilst his stormtroopers killed in their hundreds killing Auror after Auror. I finally entered the battle activating my lightsaber and my wand in my other hand.
I ran to the nearest group of stormtroopers ducking behind a fallen pillar firing at any in their way. Without even thinking I mustered up all I could and said "Explosima" at the pillar the pillar to vanish from the explosion knocking the stormtroopers several meters back.
"impetus fulminis" I aimed for the stormtroopers. The spell left my wand and hit one of them killing him instantly before the current passed to the other unconscious troopers killing them as well. I athletically using the force leaped up in to the air whilst brandishing my savagely separated the nearest stormtroopers head with one swipe of my lightsaber whilst stupefying another.
No matter how much I killed though there were more stormtroopers pouring in to the courtyard. We were outnumbered and we couldn't win. I wasn't about to give up without a fight though. To break the army I had to kill their leader. Before I had the chance though I heard the head Auror shout "FALL BACK INSIDE"
I ran back to entrance hall door killing a squad of stormtroopers along the way and started saying and firing any blasting hex I could think of at the enemy army. But there were to many and as soon as every wizard was inside we sealed it and reinforced it with every spell we knew.
"ενισχύσει"
"κρυσταλλώσει"
"Cave Inimicum"
"Impervius"
I did use two more Greek spells on the door as well as some more well-known ones before flaming to the astronomy tower.
When I got there, Hermione was there along with Ron firing spell after spell at the army below. Walking up to them I said to Hermione.
"Where did you go, when I was down there?"
"Yes, sorry Harry the bridge at the back needed people to blow it up so me and Ron helped."
"Ok, so this is the only way in to Hogwarts."
"As far as I know"
"Harry and Hermione, they're climbing up the tower using their muggle weapons and rope, stop talking and help" Ron shouted to the both of us. Hermione resumed firing spells and I started firing "Diffindo" over and over again at any ropes I could see. Unfortunately I couldn't see Vader anymore so he must have slipped away.
After 5 minutes the pace of the battle changed as 20 friendly carriers/cruisers from my dad's and the rebel fleet started aiming all their turbo laser canons at the imperial army and fired. There was no chance any of them could survive without ray shielding. The imperial army was lost after 10 minutes of concentrated targeting. They then started to land and that's when I saw my dad's army and the rebel army come out of the forest with copious amounts of magical creatures friendly and deadly. They led the creatures in to nearest carrier. Two to three of the cruisers landed on top of the lake. I looked around at the faces of the wizards and they were trying to decide if they were a threat or friendlies.
Galen Marek's point of view
I was jogging as fast as I could whilst my army could keep up with me when my counterpart Starkiller said.
"Sir, the Imperials have temporarily retreated in space so I am sending 20 carriers/cruisers to your location to deal with the imperial army. They will return though so we have to evacuate as much as we can. Do you order it?"
"Yes, do it as quickly as you can. My army is getting torn apart from the forest terrain. I will collect as much local wildlife as I can and will evacuate them as well. The centaurs are proud people s but we can offer them their own planet so I will get them."
"Yes sir"
After 15 minutes of enhanced running I had finally collected all I could. The centaurs agreed to evacuate on the conditions they have their own planet. We caught 10 unicorns, a whole sack of Acromantula eggs and many other magical plants and animals. I had collected 8 eggs from each dragon species and placed them in stasis on Kepler 22b. I have collected a sample of DNA from every known animal on earth Magical and non-magical for when I ever needed any of them for potions over the years and every single magical plant and normal plant as I did expect something like this happening, just so the magical aspect of earth could live on. I had them stored on the planet known as Kepler 22b. When I and the army emerged from the forest we saw thousands and thousands of dead stormtroopers and a couple of fallen AT-AT. Looks like the wizards could handle themselves with the help of orbital targeting.
"LOAD UP ALL THE ANIMALS AND PLANTS ON THE REVENGE." I shouted to my forces through my comms unit. I looked up at the school and started to make my way towards it.
"ALL DROIDS GET ON THE ARCHERON" I ordered through the comms unit. I heard Luke shouting similar orders to his rebel army.
My plan was to evacuate Hogwarts and get everyone on to Kepler 22b, set up a temporary base while attempting to strike back at the empire. Although I was sure the war would be over soon, there was rumours about the emperor building his death star again. The rebels were planning on destroying it anyway, after luke helped rescue his friend Han of course. All I was concerned about was the survival of this worlds people, The real world was compromised though so I need to evacuate the wizards that are left to my base and production planet Keplar 22b. These children were the future of this generation. The school also hosted the other major wizarding schools all over the world at the moment from what my intelligence learned. Along with the Aurors from all over the world as britain was to be their last stand they evacuated every student from Beauxbatons, Hogwarts, durmstrang and the Australian Academy of Sorcery.
Needless to say after calling Harry and the headmaster he and everyone else in the school agreed to be evacuated to a safe place as Hogwarts was compromised.
3 MONTHS LATER
With the wonders of wizards and droids helping to build three cities for over 30000-40000 wizards it was finished in the first month. I already had a sustainable food source with earth animals so all they needed was accommodation, shops, government, school, work and many other things.
I was doing all I could to help but my main focus was keeping these people's safe. My navy had expanded tenfold after the increase in production I now controlled 300 more star destroyers of various designs I stole from the Imperials and Rebels as well as the old republic and cis ships totalling up to 500. A modified super star destroyer with a super laser had also been constructed as my flagship. My flagship was the same as the original but changed so its run by an A.I and droids who were also under control of the A.I, I find droids to more proficient and cheaper so I was solely building them and a massive fleet in preparation to bring down the empire.
The wizards had built three new schools, one for each country, Australian academy, durmstrang, beauxbatons and of course Hogwarts. Each people's of the wizarding world was given a border on Kepler, Kepler renamed Thor, to do as they please and build their homes. I gave them aid temporary food and each government 100,000 droids to help with their building as well as any resources they may need although i did replicate materials and plants so I gave them anything they needed.
The British wizarding School, Hogwarts for short and it was remarkably similar to Hogwarts even the site was in the northern hemisphere of the planet. The Hogwarts school of Kepler was constructed as a castle on an edge of a mountain while there was a forest spanning 1000's of miles surrounding it. The magical creatures were released as per their requests.I did take a leave a male and female of every magical creature apart from the sentient ones, I collected over the years so I can use artificial insemination to create more of these creatures. In addition I had also cloned and replicated most magical plants and every plant that they use In potions in a sufficient quality so they can use it, I had brought their culture with them and they loved me for it.
Harry's training had also come well and I named him a Jedi Master along with Hermione and Ron. We had also along with the various wizarding governments built a new separate school that focuses on the force and magic combining them together. It was also a place people could come to use the force, Their were high numbers who applied at first but after setting up the school with the various subjects me, my clone, Ron, Harry and Hermione had agreed to become teachers for a new generation of force users from ages 5-20. Unlike the other wizarding schools who still used house elves my school used droids to cook clean and take care of the school. We also agreed to take only 5 year olds at first, for learning the force, then when they are 11 they start to learn magic and combining the two powers. The school was like the old Jedi temple on Coruscant but a lot bigger and a lot more like Hogwarts with a lake/ocean near the school and a main shopping wizard district near as well. I had gone to a lot of risk recruiting people from off world but it paid off and many from all over the galaxy were flocking to school. At its peak it could accommodate up to 10,000 students and we accepted only 1000 students because of the limited teacher and force users.
Thank you all I will be leaving for a month or so to write the first few chapters of my other story. remember to review and favourite as well.
By the way feel free to translate any spells I have made up it should explain for it's self
