Chapter I
A Long time ago in a galaxy far far away
Narrator: "The Republic forces are entrenched, as the Clone wars rages on, with no end in sight. Rumors have been spreading of an unknown fraction, with mysterious warships attacking primarily the Separatist strongholds on former Sith strongholds. Meanwhile the Republic forces plan to liberate the planet Ryloth from the Iron grasp of the Separatist leader Wart Tambo. Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and his Apprentice Jedi padawan Ahsoka Tano plan to break the blockade to allow Jedi General's Mace Windu and Obi-Wan Kenobi to land their forces and finally free the long suffering Twi'lek people."
The Resolute and three other Venator-class Star Destroyers jump out of hyperspace, facing one Lucrehulk-class Battleship, and four Munificent-class star frigates. Anakin Skywalker looked out of the bridge as the Separatist forces stared at him. "Admiral Yularen, looks like things are going to plan." spoke Anakin, as he turned to his most trusted Admiral. "Indeed, sir." replied the admiral, as he looked at the holoprojector. "General Blue squadron has deployed, as planned" Spoke up a clone naval officer. Anakin nodded and activated the Communicator, "Remember Snips, this plan is counting on you and your squadron succeeding.", "Don't worry about it master, me and Blue squadron can handle this." replied Ahoska, "Right Boys?" she asked, "Don't worry Blue leader, Blue squadron is behind you." replied the Blue Squadron commander.
Meanwhile on the Lucrehulk-class Battleship
"Commander, the Republic is falling into our trap." Spoke TA-175, to Captain Mar Tuuk, "Very good, Very good, prepare our surprises." spoke Captain Mar Tuuk. The Commander droid, nodded and relayed the orders to nearby B1 series battle droids. Everything was falling into place, soon the Republic would be defeated,putting Ryloth firmly in the grasp of the Separatist and its population enslaved for who knows how long. These thoughts went through Tuuk's head until beep, beep, beep beep, beep, beep He leaned back and looked toward a sensor that was beeping. A droid looked at it, "Uh...sir...the sensor is picking up several unidentified objects heading our way." the droid spoke, "How many?" asked TA-175. "Uh..three...no no no...four...no no..five...uhh…." The droid started to panic as the beeping grew louder and louder, until an explosion rocked the ship throwing everybody around and alarms started to ring out all across the ship. "What the hell happened!" shouted Tuuk as he struggled to get back into his hair, he corrected his hat as he did so. "Damage on all levels!" shouted a droid, "Hangar Bay 1 is reporting fires!" shouted another droid. "SIR LOOK JEDI REINFORCEMENTS!" shouted a B1 droid as he pointed to the view port window.
Mar and TA-175 turned and they could look on in horror as five warships appeared. Two were massive measuring at least 2,406 meters and bristingling with weapons and a strange weapon in the main hangar, the other ships varied in size, and one was shaped like a rugged dagger, and fired missiles and proton torpedoes. "Sir these ships don't appear in our known Republic databases, however they match the description of the mysterious attackers." spoke up TA-175. Mar looked bewildered and rubbed his chin in thought, then a loud beeping was heard from the Holocommunicator. "Uh..Commander. The Emir is on the line." spoke a battle droid, and Mar gulped and then pointed to TA. "You're in charge. I will be back." he spoke as he left the room, causing the droids present to just look at each other in confusion.
On the bridge of the Xyston-class Star Destroyer "Derriphan"
"Captain the Separatist fleet was caught off guard. We should make quick work of them." spoke a random naval officer. "Very good officer, deploy the fighters and bombers to finish them off." spoke Captain Chesille Sabrond, as she turned to watch the battle. Suddenly the main door opened and everyone turned and stopped what they were doing before a random officer shouted "Lord Imperius is on the bridge, attention". Immediately everyone snapped to attention, and Captain Sabrond bowed lowly as a dark skinned Miraluka wearing black armor with a golden trim. She spoke softly in a motherly but commanding tone "Report Captain." "Yes my Lord, we have successfully caught the Separatist fleet off guard." She then gulped."My lord we intercepted a Republic distress call from a starfighter squadron." spoke up a communication officer. "Put it through." ordered Darth Imperius, and the officer did as he told, and the message played. "Mayday, Resolute this Blue squadron an unknown fleet appeared and matches the descriptions of the "Ghost Fleet", the seppies are confused but Vulture droids are harassing us!" spoke an orange skinned Tongruta. Darth Imperius stared at the holograph, "Your orders my lord?" asked Captain Sabrond. Darth Imperius looked at the battle then turned, and ordered "Have Asap squadron intercept and assist the Republic forces, we're not here to start a war." she ordered, and everyone rushed off to do as their Sith Lord commanded.
