Chapter III
Narrator: "With aid of the mysterious Eternal Sith Empire, which is a revived Sith Empire and apparent successor to the Resurgent Sith Empire. The Republic managed to defeat the Separatist Naval Blockade paving the way for a ground force to liberate Ryloth. Now Jedi General Obi-wan Kenobi and Mace Windu meet with Darth Imperius onboard her flagship to discuss their next plan of action. But the Jedi are wary of their new apparent ally. "
Obi-wan and Mace Windu along with C-3PO, Commander Cody and Republic Senator Padmé Amidala are on board a Republic Nu-class transport. "I don't trust these new sith." spoke Mace Windu with his arms crossed. "Indeed, it is strange however according to Anakin, they are not in league with Count Dooku which I guess is a Plus." replied Obi-wan. Padmé then spoke up "We need all the allies we can get. I know how the Jedi feel about the Sith but based on the reports we can't avoid a three sided war." The Jedi nodded in agreement, based on the reports they received that the New Sith have advanced technology which would make a three sided war useless. Suddenly the clone pilot radioed in "General, Senator we have clearance to land on the Derriphan. Darth Imperius said she would meet us in the hangar." spoke the clone pilot. "Understood Jax." replied Obi-wan as the group braced themselves.
The Shuttle approached the Eternal Sith Fleet and was promptly escorted by Sith starfighters, the shuttle landed in one of the hangars where Darth Imperius and Captain Chesille Sabrond and a bunch of Dark Legionnaire troopers were awaiting the Republic dignitaries. Obi-wan, Mace Windu, C-3PO, Commander Cody, and Padmé exited the shuttle and were greeted by Dark Legionnaire troopers, Darth Imperius and Captain Chesille Sabrond. "Welcome to Derriphan, I'm Captain Chesille Sabrond." spoke Sabrond. "Indeed, I know you don't trust the Eternal Sith Empire, but we have to work together and we share a common enemy." spoke Darth Imperius, Obi-wan and Mace shared a look "Very well, do u have a plan to save the Twi'leks?" asked Obi-wan, "Indeed, our Probe droids have discovered the Separatist have already conquered much of the planet but have faced resistance from some local groups." spoke up Darth Imperius as she and Sabrond escorted the group to the ship's bridge.
"That makes sense, what's the status of your forces." asked Mace Windu, "I have 300,000 Dark Legionaries, several AT-AT's, AT-ST's, AT-M6's, several companies of battle droids and dozens of starfighters." Replied Darth Imperius. Mace and Obi-wan nodded. Then a Togruta rushed over to the group and Obi-wan got a look of her and she looked similar to Ahsoka minus being a few years older in appearance. "Master. I got word that Darth Callous and Darth Nox are enroute." spoke the Togruta through heavy breaths. "Very good Ashara. You can take a rest, you will need it for the upcoming battle." spoke Imperius in a motherly tone. She then turned to Mace Windu and Obi-wan, "This is my apprentice and "daughter" Ashara Zavros." She introduced the togruta, "Greetings...if you excuse me I have to find my brother Xalek." spoke Ashara with a respectful bow, before she turned and ran off down the hall. The Group entered the ships command bridge, where Sith Eternal officers were analyzing data and monitoring the Separatists troop movements and communications. An officer approached the group, and saluated. "My lord, Inferno Squad has reported that the Separatist forces are using the locals as cannon fodder to protect several AA emplacements." he spoke.
Darth Imperius nodded and the officer walked off. "As you heard we can't land until those heavy AA emplacements have been dealt with. We deployed Inferno squad to handle it but they're pinned down, I was hoping you had some special forces with you." Spoke Imperius as she leaned on the holoprojector. Obi-wan shook his head, "No, we didn't bring special forces, most of ours are deployed to other areas." Mace Windu was in thought and Captain Sabrond walked up and whispered into Darth Imperius' ear, she placed a hand on her head and Sabrond quickly backed off and she sighed. "We have an idea..but I don't want to use it." she spoke as she held her head down. "We need to hurry and save these Twi'lek from slavery." spoke Padmé. Imperius sighed "Every Xyston-class Star Destroyer comes equipped with one axial superlaser cannons in the main hanger, we could lower the power outage and fire two shots from the Derriphan and Bombard and knock out the planetary generator and the communications tower." Mace Windu and Obi-wan looked at each other "Very well it's our only option, like the senator said time is of the essence." Imperius nodded and ordered Sabrond to contact the Bombard and prepare the superlaser to fire.
