Chapter 7: What is supposed to happen next?

-In-The-Past-

Anakin and The odd looking Tusken Raider were sitting across from each other on the ground of the tent, Anakin unable to see any kind of look upon the Raiders face but could feel how uneasy the being in front of him was as it wasn't to often that an outsider cares enough to learn to speak their language.

After a few minutes of uneasy silence Anakin decides to start off " my name is Anakin Skywalker" he stated in as friendly a tone as possible while speaking in the Tusken language " it's an honor to meet you" he continued before bowing his head slightly for a moment.

There was complete silence for a few moments again before the raider spoke " I am Orr Agg R'orr" he stated in a gruff tone while speaking his natural tongue " how is it you can speak our tongue?" he asked bluntly while tracing his fingers along his Gaderffi stick that was on his lap.

Anakin sat there for a few moments before saying " I have learned a lot about you and your people, not just as the Tusken Raiders but also when you were known as the Kumumgah" as soon as Anakin said the last word Orr Agg R'orr gripped his Gaderffi stick tightly with both hands and growled but it did not deter Anakin.

Anakin raised his hands and held them out, palms facing out in a calm manner before continuing " I am sorry to bring it up, but what happened to your people was a complete travesty" He got out before placing his hands back down and going again " your people suffered immensely under the might of the Rakatan Empire and I can understand your long desire for freedom when, even now thousands of years later Tatooine is still oppressed by those who believe beings like you and I to be nothing more then toys for them to play with" by now Orr Agg R'orr had calmed down a bit and slightly released the grip on his Gaderffi stick.

Silence reigned for a few moments before Anakin continued " you might not believe it but we actually have a lot in common" he stated as he saw the raider calm down a little more. Anakin leaned forward a little bit and stated " I believe we met like this for a purpose, if we were to work together we can free Tatooine once and for all" this got Orr Agg R'orr to give Anakin his full and undivided attention.

-Present-Time-Kamino-Tipoca-City-

The system Kamino was an aquatic planet located in an extragalactic star system that straggled south of the Rishi Maze satellite galaxy and beyond the larger galaxy. It was inhabited by the Kaminoans—a race of tall, elegant beings with long necks who were regarded as a mysterious species that tended to keep to themselves but were known well in certain circles for their cloning technology.

The Kaminoans were known to provide clone armies and often contracted with private security forces and other clients. Being the fact that Kamino was outside the known galaxy it was able to remain secret from the Republic and other powers while building up their own technological prowess and experiment freely with cloning techniques to their hearts content.

The Sky Order first became aware of their presence roughly three and a half years into the war of independence. A green crew that were piloting one of the first finished repurposed star ships, that came out of hyperspace just outside the galaxy and discovered the advanced race.

After a proper and formal meeting with members of The Sky Order High Command, the Kaminoans offered their cloning services to the Sky Order to increase the size of their army in a relatively short period of time and at a relatively good price as well but The Sky Order High Command unanimously agreed not to accept the proposal.

They decided though that at the time the best option would be to reject their proposal without offending them claiming to the Kaminoans that they did not have the resources to house and feed such an army but might come back to them one day in the future for their services.

While they had no intention of using the services being the fact that using an army of clones would defeat the very purpose of the war of independence but they feared that the Kaminoans might one day offer their services to their very rich enemies, so they decided to try remain in the good books of the odd species and this way they could keep their peripheral eyesight on them.

Lama Su, the Prime Minister of Kamino and leader of the ruling council of Kamino was sitting in his office going over some of the reports for the soon to be Galactic Army of the Republic, it had been some years since the Jedi named Syfo-Dyas came and put in the order for the army and some time since they heard from Darth Tyranus as well.

They had hoped to also hear from The Sky Order but it seemed that the war of independence truly had ended up going nowhere. The war had know been going on for nearly fourteen years and still they seemed truly no closer than they were when he met High Commander Skywalker all those years ago.

While he may not have a military mind he cold not understand how the war has not come to end with either the slavers or the freed slaves coming out on top and while they did mean to get in touch with the Hutt clans and Zygerrian Empire in order to offer their services they had gotten distracted with the order from the Jedi.

The order from the Jedi was massive and would require their full attention but he made sure to also make a few extra batches of clones with their current template incase The Sky Order came looking for more soldiers in the future.

While they did not have much information to imprint onto the clones and did not have very much propaganda material, they were still able to imprint a love for The Sky Order and an admiration of the High Commander, Anakin Skywalker as well.

As he was going over some reports regarding the latest batch the door to his office opened and in walked a female Kaminoan, she walked in a few feet before stopping to bow her head " Mister Prime Minister sir, I apologize for the interruption but there is a situation that requires your presence sir" she stated before raising her head

He looked up from his holopad in his hands " What is it Taun We?" he asked in a neutral voice knowing she would not disturb him unless it was important.

She straightened her posture a small bit " We have a request from The Sky Order for an official visit from a member of their High Command to negotiate a possible transaction" she stated

He sat at his desk in silence in a few moments and gently placed his hands down gently on his desk " hmm, it seems that after all these years they may finally have need for our services" he stated in a neutral voice he placed his one of his hands underneath his chin before continuing " did they seem desperate for a quick meeting?" he asked with more curiosity in his voice than you would expect.

Taun We smiled a little bit " yes, it seems they have spread their ground forces a little thin and would like to be able to supplement them with clone troops" she stated before handing over a thin holopad to her leader " it was a good decision to make a few extra batches of the current template now we can sell them at a higher price" she stated with a slight chuckle.

As he hits play on the small screen and starts to watch he couldn't help but grow a small smile " wonderful… just wonderful" he stated as the video played.

-Naboo-Queen's-Palace-

Queen Amidala was standing on a balcony in her palace watching the peoples of Theed go about their daily routines. There were Gungans, the surface people of Naboo, and representatives from the Diplomatic Order of Planets wandering the streets, laughing playing and working together to help each other fix what damage the droid armies belonging to the Trade Federation had done not just to Theed but other cities around the planet as well.

There was going to be a formal dinner to celebrate the end of a horrendous nightmare and while the memories of what occurred would likely last for a generation or two, they can now begin to move forward and heal from these traumatic events. Unfortunately Anakin had to leave already as he had to get back to the war but he did have time to stop by for a chat before he left while leaving her with quite the blush on her cheeks.

-A-Few-Hours-Ago-

" I understand you need to get back to the war but must you leave so soon, we are having a formal dinner afterwards to celebrate the end of this horrible event" she stated with a pleading look in her eyes while Anakin was leaning back on the railing of the balcony sitting on it " I was hoping for a chance for us to get to know each other better" she stated while moving closer to him

Anakin looked at her directly in eye while smirking a bit before standing up and walked the few feet between them before stopping and bringing his left hand up to gently rest just below her chin " there is nothing more I would rather do then spend more time with a beautiful, strong and independent woman like yourself" he stated in a whisper while they were less then a foot apart " but for the time being my responsibilities to those who put their faith in me to lead them must come first, I don't believe I could be fair to you" he stated while looking into her eyes

As he pulled away she said nothing for a few moments as she was trying to get her heart to stop beating to rapidly " I…I I understand" she stated with a bit of disappointment in her tone and a frown on her face.

" Now, now none of that" he stated before putting on a charming smile " you are to beautiful to have such a frown, just because my primary duty right now is to the Sky Order doesn't mean I don't have room for you in my life" he stated before placing his hands on either side of her head and kissing her forehead gently and pulled back before continuing " before I leave I am going to give you my personal frequencies so we can talk any time and when we find a bit of spare time from our duties we can get to know each other at a better time and place"

-Present-Time-

The Queen smiled as she brought up a small coin to her eye level with her left hand and admired it. The coin was light blue that had small white wings and D.O.O.P written in small black letters on the other, she had heard about their new currency in the outer rim but had never seen any of it before and found it fascinating.

While she was disappointed that Skywalker had to go she could understand his position but was happy that there was hope to get to spend more time with him more in the future. She was looking forward to getting to know Governess Beru some more and Greef Karga seemed like a nice enough fellow as well.

She had instructed the palace to host a relatively small but formal dinner which included the Supreme Chancellor and his party, the three Jedi that accompanied them to Naboo, and the two representatives from the Diplomatic Order of planets.

As she was thinking about the dinner she heard a knock at door so she turned around and entered her room proper " the door is open!" she stated aloud. The door opened and in walked a few of hand maidens " dinner is almost ready your highness, we are here to help you get ready for the evening" the lead handmaiden stated with a short bow.

-Orange-Zone-System-Klatooine-

Klatooine was the arid home world of the Klatooinian species that was covered with deserts and, to a lesser extent savannas. Klatooine was located within the Si'Klaata Cluster that was currently under Hutt control and one of the key systems that would help The Sky Order take the fight directly to the Hutt clans.

The planet was taken over by the Hutt clans under the Treaty of Vontor but while the planet was ruled directly by the Klatooinian Council of Elders the Hutt clans however controlled all Klatooinian activities off world.

They heard about the success of Tatooine, where the slaves were able to band together with the locals of the planet and wound up killing not one but two Hutts. This showed them that it was time to rebel against their oppressors and gain back their freedoms as well, so they sought out the early beginnings of The Sky Order and decided to work together to take down the Hutt clans.

After the war began to heat up the Hutt clans realized that more direct control would be needed on Klatooine and sent a Hutt with troops to occupy Klatooine alongside other systems located in this gateway to Hutt space.

So the off world Klatooinians wound up joining the fight for independence in the outer rim and in return The Sky Order would help remove the Hutt control from their home planet Klatooine.

Klatooine was a prime location in the outer rim, if The Sky Order was able to get a foothold in this area of space they would have an effective staging ground for starting a campaign in Hutt space proper.

The Sky Order has attempted to take control of the space around Klatooine and it's surrounding systems on two different occasions but their attempts have met with failure each time because the Si'Klaata Cluster was located at one of main entrances to the main hub of Hutt space alongside other planets such as Sriluur, Lant, Lotra, Ques, and Nimia.

These systems were very important to the Hutt clans as they each hold differing amounts of importance, Lant for example was a trade world with extensive Hutt holdings while Sriluur was in the middle of one the Hutt clans most vital trading routes that lead directly to Nal Hutta.

Klatooine required a long and extensive campaign and one of the main contributing factors was that a small minority of the population actually liked being under Hutt control and wanted the system to remain firmly in Hutt control.

These beings were power hungry and were at the top of the Klatooinian hierarchy and liked lording their power over those they felt were beneath them, this even included owning slaves of their own species. While slavery was hated for obvious reasons but when beings enslaved members of their own species it brought out a special kind of hatred on those who commit such heinous crimes.

There were four small air fields set up in a desert region of planet south of the main city of Jaqual while being less than ten kilometers from a mountain range to avoid being attacked from the rear. While there were routes through the mountain they were considered impassible by tanks and other vehicles while not worth the huge efforts it take to move infantry through such rough terrain without vehicle support.

In the mountain there were many routes which could not be seen from above in the scans of the mountain as well which helped The Sky Order as a company of M808B hover tanks moved their way through with support from some M12 Hover Warthogs and one man vehicles known as Ghosts.

Now while it was possible to move through the mountain routes does not mean it was easy, it had to be done in a bit of a slow manner but they were able to get through with enough support to take the air fields that were just beyond the mountain.

They decided to stop for a few hours to rest in before the attack, they had scouts around making sure no enemy scouts found them while they encamped for the night. Many soldiers wound up sleeping in their vehicles if they could and some were just laying against their vehicles on the ground. There were some soldiers that could also be seen doing some maintenance on their vehicles to ensure they were in good shape for the battle coming ahead.

They were able to find some open space for a few tents there was a tent that was set up to be a temporary kitchen, a small briefing tent for officers, and a slightly larger tent set up to store larger ammunition that was to be distributed to the tanks before they left for the battle.

In the officers tent was a white skinned male wearing a black formal shirt and tan pants and a black cap with a star on the front with black boots. He was in front of a small holographic projector that went up to his knees and was about two feet wide with two Bothan engineers that were on their knees working to set up the projector with power.

" I am sorry for the delay Colonel Hux sir, we had to recalibrate for the terrain but the projector should be up in a few more seconds sir" one of the engineers stated while he was putting the side panel piece back on the small holographic projector while the other pushed a few buttons on the other side.

The projector turned on and lit up for a brief moment before turning back off, then it lit up again for another few seconds but powered down quickly once again after a few seconds. Colonel Hux turned his head slightly to look at the engineer to his left with his right eyebrow raised higher than his left, the engineer met his eye for a brief moment before slapping the side of the device making it light up and hum as it turned on and stayed on this time.

As it turned on, a life size hologram appeared and it shows a Mark IV Architect droid that was colored black with yellow accents and had the Sky Order symbol on it's chest holding it's arms behind it's back " Ahh Colonel Hux, I was beginning to wonder when I would hear from you" stated the droid.

Colonel Hux came to attention and saluted while the engineers silently walked out the door to the tent " Yes Sir I apologize, it took longer than anticipated to maneuver the tanks and support vehicles through the pass without to much damage but we made it through, those new tanks are rather impressive" he stated before dropping his salute and moving his arms behind his back.

The monocle above the droids right eye moved so it was over his right eye directly " No matter, I am happy that you were able to make it through, I will admit while I do not doubt your leadership skills I was a little skeptical about your idea to move through the pass but you have impressed me again Colonel with your creativity" stated the droid.

Colonel Hux smirked a bit before saying " well I will admit that it may have only worked because we got the new tanks, the older ones would have been to bulky but these ones fit almost perfectly going through here" he sighed before continuing " I have stopped for a few hours to let my troops get some rest before the battle tomorrow" he finished.

The monocle on the droid moved again so it was back above the right eye of the droid " Hmm, good call they will be busy tomorrow" the droid stated before bringing his right hand forward with only his index finger pointed out "Major Syndulla should soon be in position to begin the attack on the city of Etrious and should be able to join us as soon as she finds a secure area" he finished.

As the droid went to speak again his hologram went to static for a brief moment and his hologram shrunk a bit as another joined in. The new one in the discussion was a jade skinned female Twi'lek wearing worn down red armor with black vertical stripes going down from her neck to her feet and The Sky Order symbol proudly on her chest but no helmet could be seen.

" Ahh Major Syndulla we were just talking about you, how are you and your troops doing?" asked the droid.

The female Twi'lek turned to the droid and chuckled a small bit " hope it was all true at least" she stated with a smile " my troops and I are ready and in position to attack the city General, the local Klatooinians that are being enslaved and oppressed in the city have been secretly storing weapons, getting ready for us to arrive before starting to fight back" she stated

The droid looked to her before placing his hands behind his back again " that is good to hear…. Now then, lets begin planning the final attacks to liberate Klatooine shall we " he stated while looking between the two other officers.

-Green-Zone-System-Ganthel-Open-Space-

Ganthel was a beautiful planet, once home to a group of known slavers that had a complete grasp on the beings on the planet directly that was now controlled by free beings and joined in the Diplomatic Order of Planets after it was liberated by The Sky Order.

The beings of Ganthel were so grateful that they also completely supported The Sky Order by allowing them to start up their first off world training academies, one naval academy alongside a military academy were created and even provided The Sky Order room on the planet for a military outpost as well.

Being the fact that Ganthel was so close to the core worlds of the Republic the Hutt Clans and the Zygerrian Empire would not risk bringing a large naval force so close to the heart of the Republic so this provided The Sky Order room to grow without fear of a large scale attack.

Even The Sky Order was hesitant to keep a large naval presence in the area so after placing a planetary shield around the planet directly, they then decided to keep a minimal naval presence around system with the space around the system being patrolled by a small fleet.

The fleet consists of two rebuilt and repurposed dark blue colored Gozanti Cruisers with yellow trim each having the Sky Order symbol on the sides of the ships following a black colored Liberator-class cruiser that had yellow accents with the Sky Order Symbol on the front of the ship.

The Liberator-class cruiser was able to carry six star fighter squadrons along with three troop regiments, mainly used to patrol D.O.O.P space and fight against pirates and slavers so it was a good ship to use to protect the beings on the planet from those who would once again oppress them and to keep a good supply chain to the planet as well.

Being that Ganthel was in a green zone it allowed civilians to come and go as they please, so ships of various sizes could be seen going through the gap in the planetary shield but they were seen going through at a moderately slow pace as each ship had to present codes and a reason for being on the system as they passed through.

A Punworcca 116-class interstellar sloop comes out of hyperspace with it's solar sail deployed and quickly pulls the sail inside itself after coming close to the planet directly. Inside the ship was none other than Count Dooku, former Jedi master and current leader of his home world Serenno alongside a FA-4 pilot droid that was flying his ship.

As the planet came into proper view the Count quickly took note of the Sky Order naval presence and the planetary shield, he believed the high amount of military presence on this planet might help sway the people in his favor and get them to join the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

He has tried to convert three other systems that were aligned with the Diplomatic Order of Planets and The Sky Order on previous occasions but failed each time due to a popular vote of the beings living on those planets.

With such a high military presence here the beings may vote more in his favor as each of the votes on previous systems he attempted to turn were landslides against his cause each time and it was beginning to test his patience.

Dooku was so wrapped up in his thoughts he missed a ding go off on the center console " Count Dooku Sir, we are being hailed" stated the pilot droid that was sitting a little a head of him to his left after pressing a few buttons.

Dooku looked to his left slightly at the droid " Accept the transmission" he stated neutrally before the droid pressed a couple more buttons and the radio came to life with a few seconds of static before it turned to silence " Punworcca 116-class Solar Sailer this is shield gate please respond with your identity and reason for visit" stated a female voice

Dooku waited for a few seconds as the droid flicked a switch on the console " I am Count Dooku of Serenno, here on a Diplomatic visit to speak with Governor John Sloane" he stated with a little impatience in his tone.

The radio went silent again for a few moments as they were likely checking the logs and before long the radio came back to life " Yes , Count Dooku the Governor is expecting you please follow the flight path provided and enjoy your stay on Ganthel Sir" the female voice stated as the console beeped a few more times.

The ship started to fly down through the gap in the shield as Dooku started to smirk a bit, thinking this planet might be easier to turn against the Diplomatic Order of Planets.

-Naboo-Queen's-Palace-

Dinner was in full swing here, other than the two representatives from the Diplomatic Order of Planets there were the three Jedi that first accompanied the Queen back to Naboo along with the Supreme Chancellor and his staff and Representative Binks joined in as well. There was polite conversation going throughout the table, people going on about different topics of conversations.

As the dinner was going on Ahsoka looked over to Beru " uhh.. Governess Beru, w..would it be ok if I ask you a question?" she asked with some nervousness in her voice as she wasn't use to being in the same room with so many high ranking officials.

The blond Governess that was wearing a formal tan colored dress with D.O.O.P written on her chest in black letters turned to look at the young padawan learner with a smile on her face " most certainly dear" she replied in a calming manner before taking a drink of wine while looking at the young padawan.

Ahsoka was able to calm down a little as she quickly looked over to her master for support and as she was able to see her master he gave her an encouraging smile as he waived her on, she quickly turned her attention back to Beru " Well … I have heard a lot about The Sky Order and the Diplomatic Order of Planets, I was wondering why create two organizations for the same goal, like why not just create one order?" she asked

Beru smirked a little and took another quick drink of her wine before placing the glass back down " well you see, when we first started helping other systems liberate themselves of their oppressors the Hutt clans and Zygerrian Empire thought little of us and refused to believe that we were any true threat to their power and because of this, we were able to liberate a few systems rather quickly" she paused her story to take another drink of wine.

After a few moments she continued " After we liberated Tatooine from Jabba and saved it from Zero's wrath, we quickly realized that if we did nothing our victory would truly not last long, a year or two maybe but we would never have won a lasting victory or true freedom because if Tatooine continued to stand alone against the two major slave dealers the freedom we won would be quickly takin away and we refused to allow that to happen." She took a brief pause to take another quick drink of her wine.

While the Governess was talking she did not notice that her tale had now gotten the attention of even the Supreme Chancellor who was listening while pretending to listen to another of Orn Free Ta's grand stories but now had an ear open to what the Governess was saying.

After taking a brief drink of her wine Beru continued " So after liberating a few systems we were able to start coordinating our efforts with that of other systems and after a short period of time the first meetings of The Sky Order officially began. While it was a little shaky at first, after the first few campaigns The Sky Order was able to start working as a cohesive military force and began to truly gain ground in creating lasting freedom for those living in the outer rim."

Before she could continue Ahsoka interjected " I am a little confused though, where does the Diplomatic Order of Planets come in here?"

Beru smirked a little " I was just getting there" she stated in a kind tone understanding that young beings sometimes can't help themselves " you see, Anakin knew that after granting them freedom many would support a military regime in power but there would be enough that wouldn't support a military regime having complete power to cause a divide in the outer rim, and if the outer rim divides again then the slavers would be able gain back control and again everything we would have fought for would have been for nothing" by now her voice was a little more somber than her normal cheerful self.

After taking a quick pause to have a sip of wine she continued " Anakin came up with the Idea of creating a government for the outer rim to create true unity and peace, that way each system in the Diplomatic Order would be able to choose weather or not to support the military order and at the same time the Sky Order would be able to continue their fight against the slavers without worry of being impeded by a sometimes slow moving democracy" she finished

Obi-Wan looked over to Beru while stroking his beard with his left hand " so what your saying is that this way you can have both a military power and democratic government working separately but together for a common goal to ensure the Hutt clans and Zygerrian Empire don't gain back control, but the question remains that why go to all this trouble this late in the war though?, from what I have come to understand is that The Sky Order currently has the advantage in the war and you are still gaining ground and building your navy" he finished with curiosity in his voice.

Beru smirked again after she swallowed the last few bites of her dinner " well you see" she started before pushing her plate forward a bit while putting down her utensils and quickly she wiping her face lightly with a napkin before speaking again " the greatest teacher we have had has come from the past, it is not well known but thousands of years ago the Hutt families were challenged by slaves and the slaves back then were able to push the Hutt's far back just as we have done now, but the former slaves grew complacent and after the Hutt's had time to grow a proper navy the slaves were back under Hutt control within a short period of time, we refuse to make the same mistake" her last sentence was said with more seriousness in her voice.

Greef Karga decided now to chime in " how about a toast everyone!" he stated trying to bring the mood back up, he raised his glace " To freedom!"

" To Freedom!" came from the whole table as they all quickly raised their drinks and then continued discuss various topics

-System-Florrum-

Florrum is a sulfurous desert planet located in the Florrum system within the Sertar sector of the Outer Rim territories. Florrum was home to a pirate gang lead by Hondo Ohnaka who originally came from the plant of Sriluur.

About three and a half years into the war of independence Ohnaka and his gang had managed to capture Anakin when his star fighter crashed while in battle in a nearby system. The Hutt clans and the Zygerrian Empire had offered any a high price for Anakin handed over and Hondo could have made quite the payday for him and his men but Hondo had thought of a better idea.

Hondo instead offered his services to The Sky Order, with his help they could deliver troops, medical supplies, food, water, and even weapons to help support slave revolts on multiple planets. Anakin accepted this offer knowing that it was the force that had brought him to meet the unique pirate leader.

While it started out as purely as a mutually beneficial business arrangement throughout the years a true bond began to grow between Hondo's gang and The Sky Order to the point where Florrum became one of The Sky Orders main trading hub's.

In the main hall of Hondo's main building there were many Weequay drinking and having fun dancing, drinking, and fighting while Hondo was in his office going over some reports for his latest payments from The Sky Order.

On the corner of his desk facing Hondo was a small holographic screen that was about fifteen inches long that was almost paper thin it was turned on while Hondo had in his hands a small holopad that had a lot of text that Hondo was reading through.

Hondo had a smile on his face as the profits he and his crew were receiving from The Sky Order just kept increasing, every year as more campaigns opened up throughout the outer rim more and more planets required Hondo and his men to smuggle in supplies to support local revolts.

As Hondo was reading through some of the reports he noticed what time it was and turned to his holographic screen on his desk that was playing some music at the moment and moved closer so he could press a small arrow key on the screen a few times before stopping and sitting back for a moment.

On the holographic screen was S.N.N in bright red letters with a blue background " Welcome and thank you for tuning into the latest news edition from the Sky News Network, bringing you the latest information from the front lines of the war for independence" stated a cheery male voice while the camera panned around to desk with two beings behind it.

As the camera got to the desk two beings could be seen behind a desk, on the left was a blue skinned female Squamatan with dark hark and brown eyes, she was wearing a formal blue blouse with the Sky Order symbol on her chest and on the right was a droid that looked like C3PO except it was colored dark green with black accents.

" Hello everyone" started the blue skinned female " I am Suralinda Javos and thank you for joining us today "

The droid gestured to itself with it's hands " and I am JA3, thank you for joining us today"

" Some new top news coming in from The Sky Order today" Suralinda started up again while placing her hands together in front of her on the desk " it seems that the Trade Federation attempted to invade and gain direct control over the peoples of Naboo, they even went as far as sending down an army of droids to the surface of the planet to occupy it and attempted to coerce the Queen into signing a treaty to make their invasion legal, after getting refused from the Republic for assistance the Queen made a request to the Sky Order to liberate her home world before the Trade Federation was able to gain a true foothold on the planet" she stated with a clear edge in her tone.

" Yes it was quite the event" started JA3 as he joined the conversation while placing his hands on the desk in front of him " to be honest with their track record I am sure many like myself are not surprised at all that they would do something like this" he paused for a brief moment as he looked to his partner for a moment before turning back to the camera " what truly did surprise me though was the fact that the Queen managed to escape and made it to Coruscant to plead for assistance from the Republic senate only for them to refuse her plea and call her a liar" he finished

Suralinda looked over to JA3 for a brief moment as she was able to calm herself a little before turning back to the camera " Well lets thank the force that she thought to request assistance from the Sky Order and the Sky Order was in a position where is could send troops and ships to help liberate Naboo from the Trade Federation before they were able to gain a true foothold on the planet itself" she stated.

While the news was going on Hondo continued to go over the reports for some of his off world trading facilities, after years of working with the Sky Order and eventually the Diplomatic Order of Planets as well he was able to build a legitimate trading business with the help of his smuggling and high contact list he was able to become quite the asset to the continued hope of creating lasting freedom in the outer rim.

" And in other news" Hondo looked back to the holographic screen on his desk for a moment as he heard JA3 start a new story "we got word from our correspondent on Sriluur and she has informed us that the Sky Order forces on the planet were able to capture the city of Fahruz, the city with the biggest space port on the planet, this means that the Hutt that is currently controlling Sriluur will have a harder time getting reinforcements and new supplies" JA3 stated

" Yes" stated Suralinda as she joined in " the inhabitants of Fahruz are now free of Hutt forces thanks to the efforts of Commander Krell's infantry divisions that were supported by Major Pryde and two platoons of his tanks, although the final numbers are not quite available rough estimates show that during the battle Commander Krell lost at least two dozen men and Major Pryde lost a platoon of tanks and support vehicles, they were able to take control of the city and placed a small but effective shield around the city to protect it from attacks from above, and while they know that the fight for control of the surface of Sriluur is far from over, they can rest easy tonight knowing they freed over twelve thousand beings from Hutt control" she finished.

JA3 brought forward one of his hands with his index finger pointed out " now we do have a small treat for those watching back home, don't we Suralinda?" he asked as he looked over to the blue skinned female.

" oh we most certainly do JA3" replied Suralinda with a smile before leaning forward just a little bit " some of our correspondents are combat field reporters that actually go into battle alongside the regular infantry, one is fighting alongside the troops on Sriluur and while the troops were attacking she was recording the battle with her mini drone cameras that were flying around the city while the attack was happening, these mobile cameras were also able to help the Sky Order and the Weequay Freedom Fighters change their strategy on the fly when needed during the battle as everyone knows, no battle plan survives contact with the enemy" she stated with a smile before having a small drink of water.

JA3 gestured to Suralinda with his left hand " yes and we having a live interview with our correspondent on Sriluur in just a few minutes here so make sure to stay tuned"

As the military news report was going on Hondo was half paying attention as he had gotten back to reviewing the latest requests from The Sky Order while laying back a little on his seat with his feet on his desk.

The door to his office opened up and another male Weequay walked in and went up to Hondo's desk " hey boss, your girlfriends star fighter just came out of hyperspace and is making her way down to the surface as we speak" as the Weequay was talking Hondo looked up from the holopad in his hands with wide eyes but recovered quickly by moving his feet off of the desk and placed the holopad down on his desk before standing up and started walking towards the door with the other Weequay following close behind " well then, lets go see her before she beats up everyone eh" Hondo stated with a chuckle as the door to his office close behind him, the news report still playing on the screen.

-Kamino-Open-Space-

Three small ships come out of hyperspace, the first to be seen was a Lambda-class T-4a shuttle that was colored light blue with black trim and The Sky Order symbol on the outside of the ship, followed by two X-Wing star fighters that were escorting the Lambda-class transport ship.

Inside the Lambda-class T-4a shuttle were two pilots, a squad of Sky Order infantry troops and the two representatives from The Sky Order high command.

In the cockpit was a Human female with dark hair wearing a blue colored pilots uniform with the Sky Order symbol on her chest with a small S.I.S pin underneath, and she was sitting next to a Wookie.

The Human female flicked a few switches and pushed a few buttons on the console before looking over to the Wookie " Well Takook, there it is, the cloning world of Kamino, got to say not as spooky as I thought it would be" she stated as they see the oceanic world come closer into view.

RAWRGRWAWGGR!! ( better let the Colonel know that we have arrived Captain Tallissan ) stated the Wookie as he started pressing a couple buttons on his side of the console

" Right" stated Tallissan as she flicked a switch that was just above her head " Colonel Finn Sir, We have arrived to the system of Kamino, we will arrive on the surface in about twenty minutes" she stated before flipping the switch off again.

In the back room of the ship there were troops and the two Sky Order representatives getting ready, there was a dark skinned male with dark hair and an eyepatch covering his left eye, wearing a formal blue dress shirt the Sky Order symbol on his chest and black pants that was sitting next to a female with blue skin that had a formal red colored shirt with the Sky Order symbol along with an S.I.S pin on her chest and black pants.

A little down the row in other seats were a squad of soldiers, on the end was a BX-Commando droid that was colored red with black accents with the Sky Order symbol on it's chest sitting next to four troops in blue armor with white vertical stripes going down from their helmets to there feet.

Static filled the room for a brief moment as that rooms radio flickered on " Colonel Finn Sir, We have arrived to the system of Kamino, we will arrive on the surface in about twenty minutes" stated Captain Tallissan before the radio was turned off and silence rained in the room again.

Before long the blue skinned woman turned to the dark skinned man " Colonel Finn Sir, shall we quickly go over our mission objective before landing?" she asked

Finn turned his head slightly " well, it's not all that complicated Captain Zenta " he stated before placing his hands together in his lap " We are we to find out who their client is that they have been building an army for" he stated with a little confusion in his tone

Captain Zenta sighed " men" she breathed out as she rolled her eyes " it's not as simple as it sounds Colonel but essentially yes that is the mission, but this is your first mission as a member of High Command so you need to smart and use that noggin of yours" she stated in a cheerful tone as she poked his forehead with her index finger " you are not just running towards the enemy here bud"

Finn chuckled a bit " no, instead I am going to walk into a potential enemies base and offer them loads of money" he stated as they felt the ship shake a little as it was entering the planets atmosphere.

Captain Zenta looked turned her head to look over to Finn for a moment " I understand that you are not used to these kinds of missions but I am sure you will learn and adapt quickly, we were lucky to find out about this large order of clones from the drunk bounty hunter thanks to Sing and it is imperative that we find out not only who placed the order but how long the Kaminoans have been working to fulfil such a large request" she stated and gave Finn a bit of a serious look.

Finn looked over to her before leaning forward slightly " your right, I usually use humor to mask nervousness, I am sorry if it seemed I was making light of the situation but I can adapt on the fly" he stated and silence rained between the two of them for about a minute " by the way though" he stated before leaning over a little closer to her " there is no such thing as luck" he finished before standing up to straighten out his uniform and uses his left hand to grab a railing as the ship lands.

-Orange-Zone-System-Klatooine-

The Hutt that was sent was none other than Graballa the Hutt, a Hutt that once was an underling that worked directly for Jabba on a desolate mining world called Belgaroth. Graballa was sent to Klatooine to keep control and was currently encamped in Jaqual, while not the biggest city on Klatooine it was the central city of the planet and it had the most defenses.

Graballa the Hutt was paranoid about the locals being the fact that the majority of the planets natural inhabitants would love to see the Hutt dead and left to rot so the Hutt refused to use any local slaves and only used slaves that the Hutt brought to the planet. Graballa even made it a point to not allow any Klatooinian slaves or civilians in Jaqual at all, so only military personal or servants of Graballa were allowed into the city itself.

Graballa was currently using a small mansion as their home and headquarters for controlling the city as well being able to continue a somewhat lavish lifestyle, even while at war the Hutt's still loved living like they were gods.

Graballa was enjoying being fed by a couple of his Twi'lek slaves while a purple protocol droid stood a little off to the side watching it take place with a few Gamorrean and Nikto soldiers guarding the doors. As Graballa was feasting and enjoying his slaves the main door to his large room opened and in walked three Klatooinians that were wearing armor, two of which were each holding a Techstaff and following slightly behind the third.

The three Klatooinians walk up before Graballa and kneel with two of them kneeling about three feet behind the first " My lord, we bring news of The Sky Orders movements" started the leading Klatooinian before standing with the other two behind him following his lead

Graballa spoke for a few seconds in it's native tongue before narrowing his eyes and waiving the purple colored protocol droid to come forward a foot or two " The great and mighty Graballa hopes that this information is worth wasting his precious time Colonel Castas" the droid translated for the Hutt.

" Our scouts having reported seeing the Sky Order forces heading in the direction of Etrious city my lord" started Castas before stepping forward a foot or two " it is imperative my lord that we stop them before they are able to capture the city, from our scouts reports they are even moving in tanks and other support vehicles to support the infantry and protect them from air attacks, if I were to take the reserve forces we have here through devils pass we can reach the city in time to support it" he stated

Graballa spoke in his native language for a minute or two before stopping to let the protocol droid speak " and why not just wait for them to take Etrious city and force them to travel through devils pass, it would be easy to set up an ambush to kill them going through such a narrow pass" the droid translated from the Hutt.

Castas looked over to the droid for a moment before turning back to the Hutt " because by then it will be to late, if they are able to take Etrious city and place a shield around it they will gain thousands of new fighters, they will be able to bide their time or rush through devils pass with an amount of troops we won't be able to fight off!" Castas stated with anger in his tone.

Graballa spoke again for about a minute this time before the droid looked to him " Very well, you may take the reserve forces through devils pass but the star fighters will remain at the airfields until Graballa gives the order directly, understood?" asked the droid

" Understood!" Castas growled before turning and walking to the door with his two guards following along. After the door was closed Graballa looked to the protocol droid before speaking to it for a minute or two before stopping

" Yes I agree Klatooinians are dumb, smelly, and ugly" stated the droid as the Hutt laughed.

-Green-Zone-System-Ganthel-

Dooku was entering the Diplomatic Order of Planets administration building and he saw many different beings walking around performing various tasks throughout the lobby of the building. He noticed a few security guards that wearing light blue armor and each had what looked to be an electric baton as well. Dooku walked up to the main desk in the lobby to see a female Togruta with orange skin wearing a formal blue dress with a D.O.O.P pin on her chest sitting behind it.

As the woman noticed Dooku approach she smiled before standing and curtsied " Hello and welcome to Ganthel, how may I help you today?" she asked.

Dooku gave her what seemed to be a genuine smile " hello young lady I am Count Dooku, I am here to speak with Governor Sloane, he should be expecting my visit" he stated with a neutral tone

The Togruta woman's smile fell off her face slightly as she sat back down " I am sorry to have to say this but the Governor was called into an emergency meeting with other D.O.O.P members" by now the woman is clearly nervous but she continues "h..he should be done shorty if you would like to take a seat in the lounge and I can bring over a drink for you, I am terribly sorry C..Count Dooku sir" by now she was sweating a little bit.

Dooku smiled and placed his hands in front of him with his palms facing out in a calming manner " Please relax dear girl I am not upset, I understand the responsibilities of a leader can come at any place and time, I will take a seat in lounge would it be a trouble to bring me some tea whilst I wait?" he asked gently.

The woman was no longer nervous nodded to Count Dooku " Certainly please take a seat and tea will be brought out shortly" she replied with a happy tone.

Count Dooku turns left and walks towards a small lounge that is off to side that has some fancy looking furniture and a good sized screen imbedded into the wall. Dooku walks over to the couch that is in front of the screen and takes a look at what they find entertaining here.

On the screen was a blue skinned woman with dark hair and red eyes that was wearing red armor with the Sky Order symbol on her chest and holding a red helmet in her left hand. Behind her was a city with numerous being walking around behind her, clearly in a good mood celebrating.

The woman put her right hand up to her ear " Thank you Suralinda, I will say it is good to hear from you as it has been some time" stated the woman as the screen split in half. Half showing Suralinda and half showing the woman in armor

" So Lieutenant Fox I see things are going well over there?" asked Suralinda

" Yes Suralinda for the meantime things seems to be going well, after a week of street to street fighting we were able to force the local leader to surrender control of Fahruz to The Sky Order, it was hard fought as I am sure to can imagine but we had minimal casualties and were able to free over ten thousand Weequay people!" she stated with a smile and a few people behind her shouted with glee as well.

Suralinda smiled " I am happy to hear that and I am sure everyone watching from home will be happy with that as well" she stated

The Lieutenants smile faltered a bit " now all of this did not come without sacrifice, we did lose an entire platoon of tanks along with their support vehicles and roughly two platoons of the Sky Infantry died while many more were injured" she stated while her face softened

Suralinda's face softened a bit " those who died will never be forgotten, they will always be remembered for their fight is over and it is up to us to carry on their memory" she stated with sorrow in her tone.

Dooku was watching with such attention he didn't even notice a dark blue colored protocol droid wearing the Sky Order symbol on it's chest and was carrying a trey with a drink on it walk up to the couch from the side " Your Tea is ready Sir" it stated in a female voice.

Dooku turned his head away from the screen on the wall to look at the droid " Thank you" he stated to the droid as he grabbed the drink with his left hand

" You are most certainly welcome Count Dooku Sir, the Governor should be ready to see you very soon, we apologize for the delay and appreciate your patience" the droid stated before turning and walking away

Dooku took a drink of his tea as he turned his attention back to the screen on the wall to continue watching the news program and noticed the full screen was on the blue skinned lieutenant with the red armor " now I do have some footage of the battle itself, please note that there may be a couple graphic scenes you may wish to look away if you are squeamish" stated the blue skinned soldier before the screen turned black for a moment.

" Get moving!, Get moving!" can be heard as the screen opens up blue armored soldiers running through an alley that were following a soldier with white colored armor as they reach the end of the alley they see the it open up to a street with red and green lasers dancing throughout the street and they stop just before the opening and stick close to the left wall.

The lead soldier in white armor peaked his head out for a split second and put it back just as quickly before the wall was peppered in rapid red laser fire for a few seconds. " Alright, heavy blaster set up second floor balcony on the left, I am going to distract it while you guys take it out" he stated and the other troops nodded.

The soldier back up a few feet before running straight out the alley carrying his rifle with both hands and as soon as he was on the street the red laser fire started up. The soldier ran diagonally as the turret tried to hit him.

Now the remaining blue armored troops lined up quickly as the one closest to the opening crouches as he slowly leans out from the alley, for a few seconds nothing happens but then the soldier squeezes the trigger and does a few single shots.

After he fires off a few shots he stands up and turns to the other troops " haha , got the basta…" he got out before a missile flew into the alley and explodes.

The screen goes to static for a moment as another takes it's place, this following three M12 Hover Warthogs as they are driving up one of the main city streets you could see a black colored BX-Commando droid operating the E-Web heavy repeating blasters on the back of each hover Warthog. Every so often they would fire off a couple bursts as they drove through the streets, focusing on the rooftop turrets.

Some Weequay Freedom fighters and blue armored troops could be seen running alongside the vehicles as they made their way up the street with three Warthog troop transports could be seen turning onto the street with more troops to deliver as the vehicles drove up the road, taking fire as they go.

Dooku was watching these scenes unfold with rapt attention, this was an opportunity to see The Sky Order troops in action but just as things were starting to get good " Count Dooku Sir" came from a female voice and he turned his head to see the female Togruta from earlier standing a few feet off to his side " We apologize for the wait but Governor Sloane is ready to see you" she stated with a small smile.

Dooku stood up from the couch but his eyes were glued to the screen for a few extra seconds like he couldn't look away but slowly his body started to move on it's own, he got five feet before looking away from the screen completely and followed the Togruta female to speak with the Governor.

-System-Florrum-

As Hondo was entering the main bar area of his establishment he noticed the front door's opening and in walked Aurra Sing, wearing her traditional blue jumpsuit with her lightsaber hilt hanging from her waist and her sniper hung off her back as well. Hondo turned his head slightly to look at the Weequay slightly behind him " I thought you said she just got into the system" he stated with a little sarcasm in his voice.

Before the Weequay could answer Aurra strolled in looking like she owned the place and just walked right up to Hondo, almost right in his face before stopping. Hondo reels his head back slightly but it is stopped by Aurra as she grabs the back of his head with both her hands and pulls it forward for a kiss and not just a simple kiss but she really goes into it for a minute holding his head there.

After about a minute goes by she finally released him and smirked as she stepped back " miss me babe?" she asked before walking over to a booth in the back while Hondo was still in his daze. She still swerved a little bit for him as she walked to the booth, his eyes following with no thoughts in his head.

As she reaches her intended booth she notices that there are two individuals already sitting there but just slides in and joins them in the booth " hey Embo, Sugi ya'll miss me or what?" she states happily before whistling at the bartender to get his attention " bring me my usual will ya!?" she yells and while she can not hear the bartender she sees him nod before turning her attention back to the two others at the table.

Sitting across from her was a male Kyuzo bounty hunter with yellow eyes that was wearing light armor along with a circular hat and a female Zabrak with purple hair and brown eyes and a light skin tone that is wearing light, blue colored armor with several knives strapped on her body.

The female Zabrak smirks " your late" she states with a teasing tone in her voice as she punched Aurra's arm lightly before she turns to the male Kyuzo " eh Embo," Sugi stated before nudging Embo with her elbow " look who showed up days late after asking us to look for someone for her and her brother" she finished with a chuckle.

Just as Embo was about to make a quip Hondo had grabbed drinks and walked to the table " so did you tell her the good news yet" he stated with a chuckle as he placed down a trey of shots and some taller looking bottles beside them while taking a seat.

Aurra grabs two shots and downs them both quickly before leaning forward a bit in interest " What news?"

Sugi smirks before downing two shots and leaning forward on the table, getting real close to Aurra "well"

-Naboo-Queen's-Palace-

It was getting dark here on Naboo, after dinner was finished Supreme Chancellor Palpatine politely refused the offer to spend the evening by stating that he needed to return to Coruscant to ensure a smooth transition into power and the Jedi Council decided to return with him, not wanting to discuss sensitive information outside the temple walls.

Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, and the Padawan Ahsoka stayed behind to ensure the Queen's safety for another few weeks. The three of them were at this point sitting in a small lounge within the palace and with them was the Queen, Governess Beru, and Governor Karga enjoying some light discussion and wine.

Obi-Wan had finally found a moment to ask a question he had forgotten to ask while at dinner so he turns to Beru " Beru, might I ask something regarding the war?" he asked the young Governess.

She finished laughing after a joke that Karga told before turning to Obi-Wan with a curious glance " you most certainly can Master Jedi" she replied with a happy tone

Obi-Wan leans forward a little bit after placing his hands together in his lap " I have been a little curious about the war of independence and that is, how has it lasted for so long, how has this war been going on for thirteen years without a clear victor?" he asked while scratching his beard

Beru chuckled a little bit before taking a drink of her wine " well you see Master Jedi, it was years after the start of The Sky Order before the Hutt clans and Zygerrian Empire even began to treat us as a real threat to their power in the galaxy, and it did help that while both powerful, neither side had a true and capable naval force so we did have a bit of a head start but once they realized the true gravity of the situation they were able to build one rather quickly, but by this point we were well ahead in the arms race and were able to keep a solid hold on our new found territories" she paused for a moment to take a drink of wine.

She cleared her throat quickly " sorry about that, now as I was saying while yes technically the war of independence has been going on for thirteen years, it truly only began to heat up about four years into the war, and we have to fight not one but two mighty adversaries while creating a new system of government for those who have never had choices in their lives before so while the war continues it will likely last a generation or two before the freedom we truly desire is a reality" she finished before finishing the last of her wine.

" Aww I understand, thank you" stated Obi-Wan as he leaned back a bit into the chair as the conversations picked up again and lasted throughout well into the night before everyone went to bed.

-Coruscant-Lower-Levels-

Finis Valorum was walking through the lower levels of Coruscant, a little intoxicated after visiting a couple of bars. Now he was looking for a new one to finish off the night and get just completely hammered to forget about the pain and humiliation caused by the new Supreme Chancellor.

After Palpatine was officially sworn in, it seemed that he made it his first goal as Supreme Chancellor to humiliate his predecessor and it worked. His name was dragged through the mud so bad he couldn't hope to get another job as a garbage truck driver never mind one in politics and he now had nowhere to go and no purpose to serve.

He stumbled into a random bar after seeing some hot girls go in but before he could look for the honeys that he followed in someone grabbed his right arm and gently brought him to a booth sitting in the corner of the bar that had no light over it and he was put into the corner spot just before someone joined him on the other side he noticed it was a man with brown eyes and hair wearing a worn down brown shirt and black pants.

"w.who..?.. w..w.what do yooou want?" Valorum managed to slur out

The man on the other side leaned forward a little bit " My name is Cassian Andor, and the reason I am here sir" the man whispered before slowly placing a coin on the table and slides it slowly to Valorum.

Valorum looked down at the little table to see a small blue colored coin with D.O.O.P written in small black letters on the coin itself before looking back up to see Cassian's face " I am here with an offer for you mister Valorum" Cassian stated
