Thank you for the review please keep them coming. Now then, how about a fight between light and dark.


Leia looked to the man before her, his face picture of wonder; everyone knew that where ever Leia and Han went Luke was usually with them especially for a meeting such as this one which held grate importance. Leia readied herself, "That's why I summoned you all here; Luke has surrendered over to the Empire in return for the base on the moon of Endor protection. Yet days later the base was attacked by a fleet of imperial fighters, we only just managed to escape. We landed here at Echo base. A few hours after arrival we got a report that there was to be an announcement by the Emperor himself at the destroyed base. So in curiosity we investigated and found the most shocking evidence. There on the stage was the Emperor making a speech then from behind the curtain appeared Luke, hand held behind him. At first I thought that he was bound, that the Emperor was showing of his new prize. Then... Then." Leia struggled to produce the words as tears fell from her eyes, but as she looked around the room at the faces that looked for an answer she knew she had to continue, she had to tell them no matter how much it broke her heart. "Then Luke stepped before the Emperor and..."

A man in the audience lost his patience, "And?"

"He bowed before him..."

The man now wished he had never asked, "What!-" he stopped and looked around the room making sure that everyone was as distorted as he was, then he continued, "He bowed before him. That's impossible... it can't be true... he wouldn't. He's a Jedi, they don't turn that easy."

Leia could see the faces that looked to her, they were faces of confused people and she wasn't surprised; it hadn't been long ago that Luke was awarded for his bravery, for destroying the Death Star. Indeed, a lot of the resistance had thought of him as there new hope, he had been branded as the chosen one, the one that was to restore peace to the galaxy. She two would be distorted if she found out that there hope had turned to the darkside.

"I know it's a lot to take in, but you've got to keep hope. Without hope this galaxy is sure to fall."

The room fell silent for a few moments before a woman to the left of Lei began to talk. "So what do we do now?" She questioned.

"Prepare for war, without Luke on our side the Empire is sure to strike."

"How long do we have?" Another voice questioned.

"Now that is a question I wish I knew the answer to, it could be anytime, day or night, it could be tomorrow or in three months. The advice I will give you is, be ready, this is the final battle that will determined the fate of the galaxy." Leia gave a small nod before leaving the room.


Luke woke up in a room that he recognised, it was the room he had been first held in. Yet again he was strapped into the chair that held him at a 70 degree angle to the floor. He looked around the room, but there was nothing to see, just darkness. Then suddenly the door that stood in front of him opened, Luke looked upon the dark figure as it walked towards him. "You are a fool Luke, standing up to me Luke is only delaying the fact that you will turn to the darkside. We had believed you to have turned too soon, not all the light was erased from you-"

"Admit it father, you're afaid. You don't have an explanation for what is happening."

"Mark my words Luke you will turn. And it shall start now." In one flick of his wrist the restrains that held Luke bound to the chair were removed, lowing Luke to stand. He followed his father out of the room, then they came to room, the training room, Luke had been there several times when he was on the darkside. The door swung open like magic before them and when they had passed the shut behind both father and son. Luke heard the sound of the doors being locked, this however didn't startle him; Vader had trained him, made him strong in the force, but that was when he still had control over Luke, now on the other hand he didn't.

The room was bright; its white walls reflecting the bright white light until they came into contact with the black floor, where all light disappeared. There by the back wall was the Emperor stood facing father and son. "Give the kid his weapon Lord Vader." Luke looked to his left where his father was stood but found nobody there, then he looked down, there was his father kneeling before the Emperor. He still wasn't used to him kneeling no matter how much he saw he do it. His father rose and gave the lightsaber to his son. Luke switched it on as soon s it hit the palm of his hand; in the past his father would go straight into an attack, this had often left Luke nursing wounds for several days after, so not willing to be caught off guard again he took stand before his father, lightsaber held out before him. But his father didn't draw his weapon, "You Skywalker, you are not fighting me." Luke turned to the Emperor who had his lightsaber drawn before him. Luke hesitated a moment before making his way up to the man, there for a while they were in a never ending stand-off.

Vader watched on from a distance, he knew that once the battle had begun it was going to be long and rough, and he did not wish to be in the way. The room was surprisingly calm, witch worried Vader, still he could sense the large amount of force that radiated off the men. Then the calm broke and like the thunder brewing within the storm, the fight began.

Luke had been wise and waited till the right moment to make the attack, he kept his thoughts hidden from his opponent, this left the Emperor stunned when Luke had made his first move. Using the surprise to his advantage Luke swung time and again at the man making sure that the man didn't regain his balance straight away giving him enough time to lower the man to a similar strength to his own.

Then the Emperor regained his balance along with some strength. He pushed forward on his blade that was still in contact with Luke's, then the hold broke sending Luke flying back, but he hadn't gone far before regaining his footing.

Luke knew that he wasn't going to win this through strength only. So drawing the force from deep within he raised his hand, keeping to robotic limb firmly on his lightsaber, he held it toward the Emperor. The Emperor caught wind of what Luke was attempting to do, so he raised his hand towards the boy. Lightning flew from his hand, straight for its target, and then there was a loud burst of light as the lightning came into contact with another force.

The light cleared and Vader looked upon the battle before him, no longer a lightsaber duel, but a fight between the forces, between light and dark. On the right stood the Emperor, blue lightning striking from his palm. Then on the left stood Luke, out from the palm of his left hand came green lightning the colour of emeralds. Where both met there was a large ball, its colour pure white. This was new to Vader; to his knowledge the Emperor was the only one who could withhold such power, now it was of his son's ability. He watched as the duel waged on, slowly green winning over blue. Vader could see the Emperor tiring, before long blue lighting was no longer able to be seen. Luke could have struck then with the lightning, but he withdrew, pulled his elbow in, then quickly he straightened his hand out again, causing a pulse to wave across the room, it was so powerful that it could be seen by the eye itself.

The wave slammed into the Emperor sending the man back into the wall behind him before sinking to the floor. Luke walked over to the gasping for air, looking down upon the figure he now towered over to him. He felt the force within him the light breaking to the surface before being slowly swallowed by the darkness around it as rage built up in Luke.

The Emperor looked up to Luke sensing the darkness but also the light that was trying to surface again and again, the light was becoming stronger and soon it would engulf the young Sith, soon he would return to his previous state, back to a Jedi, but there was still time, and as long as the darkness was inside Luke he still had marginal control over him. He looked to the boy standing above him, he did not wish to talk to the boy whist he was below him, so mustering his strength he rose, "You are ready-"

"For what?" Luke asked.

"You are ready for WAR my young apprentice."


A battle between the resistance and the Empire is on its way, hope to have it up soon.
