Blaze: here's chapter 10 and I hope that you like it, this is AU so the characters that are mentioned are, indeed, either younger or not as they were in canon.

Chapter 10

Captured

Darth Ira knelt before the holographic image of Emperor Palpatine as he appeared before him, his figure flickering and wavering. Ira was currently on the newly finished Star Destroyer, as Palpatine had instructed him to go to, and he was awaiting further orders. Ira never felt so free with the dark side as his ally and yet he would never have thought it would be he who would feel so free within the dark side.

Palpatine's yellow eyes narrowed slightly. "Lord Ira," he said in a calm voice.

"Yes, my Master?" Ira asked lowering his head.

"There are traitors within the Senate, many planets are seceding from the Empire even though my rule only started about half a year ago and I have reason to believe someone from within the Senate has rallied many planets to their cause, a cause of rebellion against the Empire," Palpatine replied.

"Who would dare go against you, master?" Ira asked his dark yellow-flecked eyes narrowing slightly.

"I cannot say, all I know is that some planets, such as Alderaan, are still loyal to the Empire but some planets are already seceded, such as Kashyyyk, Rutan, Mon Calamari and so many more but I cannot seem to figure out who is rallying this rebellion against us," Palpatine replied.

"Could it be the Senator from Naboo, Senator Amidala?" asked Ira.

Palpatine shook his head. "Senator Amidala is not one to take sides and she has not been seen ever since she left Coruscant after her husband was exiled. I have reason to believe she is with her husband. The current Queen of Naboo has already sent someone to replace her, Senator Binks and Binks is loyal to the Empire," he said.

"I see, what shall I do about Skywalker?" Ira asked knowing Padmé's husband was, indeed, the former Jedi Anakin Skywalker.

"Nothing as of right now, he is not apart of the Jedi Order so he may still be of some use to us. I know that if we can turn Skywalker, he would be a most powerful ally," Palpatine replied.

Ira narrowed his eyes. "And what of Kenobi?" he asked.

"Kenobi is still missing and no one knows where he is, I do not even know where he is," the Emperor replied. "I have reason to believe that he may be dead but I cannot be sure."

"I see, Master."

"I want you to go to Bilibringi, there the rest of the Star Destroyer fleet is being constructed and I wish for you to oversee the rest of the construction of the Imperial Starfleet as well as my ultimate weapon, the Death Star," Palpatine replied. "Tarkin will meet you there to help you oversee the construction of the fleet and the Death Star. If he questions your leadership, I wish for you to tell him to contact me, am I clear?"

"Yes, my master," Ira replied.

"Good, contact me when you reach Bilibringi."

"Yes, master." The holographic image of Palpatine disappeared and Ira stood up before he turned around and calmly made his way out of the communications center of the only finished Star Destroyer, named the Avenger. He made his way calmly down the hallway toward the bridge of the ship before he narrowed his eyes as the Admiral in charge of the ship, a man known as Admiral Ozzel, a younger man that looked to be only about twenty-two years of age.

"Hello Lord Ira," Ozzel greeted him saluting.

"Admiral," Ira replied. Ozzel was one of the very few imperials that immediately accepted Palpatine's coronation and Ira's position as second in command when they were appointed. "Set the course for Bilibringi immediately."

"Yes sir," replied Ozzel and Ira turned his gaze to the stars that flashed outside as the Star Destroyer readied to enter hyperspace.

Padmé narrowed her eyes as the starship came out of hyperspace and a dark green planet rose up in front of them. She gazed down at Leia as the little baby gazed up at her with huge chocolate brown eyes. Luke was in his father's arms, sleeping and Anakin was dozing in his seat but the sudden drop from hyperspace jolted him out of his sleep.

"Is that Ziost?" Padmé asked.

"I think so, Artoo wasn't able to find much information on the planet," Anakin replied rubbing his eyes before grabbing the controls and guiding the ship toward the planet Ziost. Padmé frowned when the light of the comlink flickered.

"Someone's trying to contact us," said Padmé.

"Let's see who it is," Anakin said before he flicked on the comlink.

"Unidentified vessel you are trespassing in our atmosphere and you will be detained, please land and give yourself up or we will be forced to shoot you down," the voice said.

"We are only looking for some…" Anakin began but a torrent of laser fire crashed into the ship and it rocked rapidly back and forth. "Just hold on a minute, we are only looking for someone!" Anakin protested.

"You are trespassing and High Lord Zylar wishes to speak with you. Please land and give yourself up or we will be forced to shoot you down, do you understand?" the voice said.

Anakin glanced at Padmé who was examining the planet below them and the many unique starfighters that were flying against them. "Ani, I think we should listen to them. We have to think about Luke and Leia's safety and if we are shot down, there is no telling if the twins will survive," she said.

"We don't even know these people, Padmé, what if they are like the Clone troopers that threaten the Jedi Order. They obviously don't know or don't care about the Republic laws, not that they are still in act because of Emperor Palpatine's rise, but still," Anakin said.

A torrent of lasers caught the ship and it shuddered, causing Luke and Leia to start crying at the exact same time and Padmé winced at the sound of her children's crying. "Please, Anakin, if we give ourselves up then they may not harm us. They already said this High Lord Zylar wishes to speak with us," she said.

Anakin growled but he nodded once and flicked on the comlink. "Very well, we'll land and give ourselves up but please do not attack again," he said.

"Give yourself up and no harm shall come to you and your companions," the voice said.

"Very well."

The voice disconnected the transmission and Anakin guided the starship toward the landing bay that jutted out of the nearby area. When he landed the ship, he climbed out of his seat and lifted his son into his arms from where he was in Threepio's arms. Padmé, with Leia in her arms, followed her husband as he led the way out of the ship, Threepio and Artoo followed them.

"I say, Artoo, I think Master Ani is leading us into danger," Threepio said.

Artoo beeped.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

Artoo beeped once and Padmé couldn't help but smile slightly but the smile disappeared as a crowd of men and women clad in black robes came forward and surrounded them on all sides.

"Who are you?" Anakin asked and Padmé noticed he was examining the people though he wasn't reaching for his lightsaber and she figured it was because Luke was in his arms.

"I am known as Sillia, I am an advisor to High Lord Zylar, he wishes to speak with all newcomers to our planet, come," the woman in the lead said.

"We aren't going anywhere with you until you tell us where we are and why you were threatening to shoot us down," Anakin snapped.

The sound of lightsabers igniting caused Padmé to look around rapidly, her eyes shooting wide when she noticed everyone that was surrounding them had a red lightsaber in their hands. Anakin noticed this as well and the slight anger in his eyes was replaced by confusion.

"Come, High Lord Zylar is expecting you," Sillia said and the others wielding red lightsabers closed in on them before escorting them after the woman into the large stone palace that lay in front of him.

Obi-Wan glanced up as Mylani and Zymmra came into the cell. "What is it?" he asked.

"It would appear we have found some new people that I am sure you would like to see," Mylani replied and Obi-Wan, his eyes narrowing, nodded once before getting to his feet. He followed Mylani out of the cell and staggered back as the Force came back at him in full force. He knew that even though eight months had gone by since he was often thrown back into the cell after Mylani's several attempts to break and turn him.

Mylani entered the High Council room calmly and Obi-Wan walked in after them with Zymmra bringing up the rear of the group. The cells only lay less than five minutes away from the High Council room and, in that time, Obi-Wan was able to get used to the effects and aftereffects of the ysalamiri.

"Hello Jedi," Zylar greeted him. "We have run across four others that just landed on the planet with two droids and I figured you would like to see them for yourself."

Obi-Wan, his eyes narrowing even more, nodded once and Zylar glanced toward the door just as one of his advisors, a woman Obi-Wan had learned was known as Sillia, walked into the High Council room.

Behind him followed two people that Obi-Wan thought he'd never see again. His gray-blue eyes widened with shock and he gazed at Anakin. Anakin was staring at the surrounding Siths with narrowed eyes. "What's going on?" he demanded.

Obi-Wan sighed before rolling his eyes skyward. Typical Anakin, he thought. "Anakin," he called.

Anakin turned around before his blue eyes went wide with shock. "Master?" he asked narrowing his eyes. "So I take it we're on Ziost."

"Indeed," High Lord Zylar said. "Welcome, I take it you are Anakin Skywalker."

"And I take it you're High Lord Zylar," Anakin replied his eyes narrowing.

"Indeed."

"Well, we only came here to find my Master and since I found him, we'll be leaving right away," Anakin said.

Obi-Wan sighed. "That isn't likely to happen, Anakin," he said. "They won't even let me leave and I've been trying for the last eight months."

"Why not?" Anakin asked.

"Because I crash landed on their planet and I'm a prisoner of their Tribe if I don't join it."

"Tribe?"

"Yes, the Tribe of the Lost Sith."

"Sith?" Anakin echoed his eyes widening with shock. "But all my teachings at the Jedi Temple said that the Sith only come in twos, a master and an apprentice."

"We represent the time before the Rule of Two came about," Zylar said. "Our Tribe has been living on Ziost since during the time of the Jedi/Sith War, we do not follow the Rule of Two."

"I don't get it," Padmé admitted and Obi-Wan glanced at the Nabooian Senator.

"It is very simple, you four, and your droids, are now are prisoners," said Zylar.

"Try and stop us from leaving," Anakin snapped angrily.

"Anakin, think about your children," Obi-Wan snapped. "They are skilled in lightsaber combat, I should know, I have been forced to train with them since I arrived here."

Anakin glanced at his former master before sighing. "Fine, Master," he said.

"Take them all to Obi-Wan's cell," Zylar ordered.

"Yes sir," Mylani said before he escorted Obi-Wan and his friends out of the High Council room and toward the cells.
