Chapter 6: Regroup:

Archer watched the viewscreen as five transphasic torpedoes flew towards the enemy Imperial Star Destroyers and Suliban cell ships with anticipation. The torpedoes had the desired effect, destroying one destroyer and a dozen cell ships. As ordered, the NX class starship jumped to hyperspace towards the safety of Coruscant and the awaiting Republic fleet and Enterprise E. Archer looked back towards his armory officer angrily, "Lieutenant Reed, next time we're in that situation just use the damn weapons if we have them, I don't give a damn if you stole them from section 31. Understood?"

Reed looked down and shook his head, "Apologies, understood sir."

Aboard the Imperial Super Star Destroyer Executor Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine stood looking out as the NX class starship jumped to the safety of hyperspace and away. Vader, furious over the fact that the ship was able to get away was about to punish the commanding officer when the Emperor held up his hand and shook his head, "There is no need for that Lord Vader, without him we will be stranded in this timeline without a competent admiral to lead our fleet, think before you allow your anger get the better of you in this current situation Lord Vader."

Vader bowed his head slightly, "Yes, my master. What shall we do as of now?"

The Emperor grinned and showed his rotted yellow teeth, "We will cloak this vessel and transport my younger self out of harms way and rendezvous with the separatists to use that pawn Count Dooku and his pet Grievous for what their worth before we dispose of them again… And then we will have our time traveling friends bring over Sith to help the cause and most importantly, Grand Admiral Thrawn."

Coruscant, Chancellors office.

Chancellor Palpatine had sensed a disturbance in the force, a massive one that almost left him unconscious if it wasn't for his massive power in the dark side. His plans for Anakin Skywalker and the galaxy itself were nearing but he sensed that those plans were soon about to be thwarted, and that they had to change indefinitely. Palpatine got up from his seat and removed the lightsabres hidden in his dwarti statues and prepared for the worst as he sensed a huge amount of Jedi and clones heading towards his office, he had to think of an escape plan and fast. But, before he could either escape or face off against the coming threat a blue light surrounded him and he was gone. Palpatine looked around and noticed he was on some sort of war vessel and noticed a frail old man in a black robe with some hulking black monstrosity heading towards him and he ignited his lightsaber. The old man raised his hand, "I wouldn't do that, unless you are in the habit of killing yourself my younger Darth Sidious."

Palpatine sensed the old mans presence and gasped but then smiled, "So it seems that I've come to save myself, interesting. What is the next step of our plan if we are to keep events intact… Sidious." Both men then fell into an evil cackle as they walked towards one another to start their unholy alliance.

Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, Master Yoda, Master Mace Windu and Master Obi-Wan Kenobi all searched the chancellors office with a detachment of the clone 501st legion to no avail. Anakin was angry, was furious that he could not sense the betrayal and insidious attempt to destroy the Jedi with him as the chancellors desired pawn in doing so. He did his best to keep his anger and fury in check but was having trouble doing so until he spotted the statues that Palpatine had in his office splayed open, with one still housing one of the siths spare lightsabers inside. "Masters, you may want to take a look at this!" Anakin yelled as he beckoned for the two masters closest to him, Obi-Wan and Yoda to examine what he had just found. Obi-Wan pulled out the lightsaber, ignited it and a red hue filled the room. Yoda looked down and sighed. "True it is, the ship from the future lied it did not. I sense that an even bigger war and threat we face."

Picards Ready Room

Captain Picard stared across his desk at the time traveler named Daniels, he has just reappeared in his ready room and began to inform him on the current events of the temporal cold war, and to say that they were concerning was an understatement, he would have to send this information to Archer, Kirk and their crew in order to prepare for what was to come. "So you're telling me that the Suliban are attempting to not only bring ships from the Ancient Sith Empire of this galaxy to help them, they're even trying to bring Sith, with one being as big of a threat if not more so than Sidious himself?"

Daniels shook his head as he walked around the small ready room, "I am, and they have already succeeded in bringing over a sith lord named Darth Malgus to help them in their efforts, On our side we will attempt to bring certain Jedi from the past to assist as well. I only hope that we can get them over in time and that they will agree to help restore the time line… well, restore as much of it as we realistically can."

Picard sipped his tea and pondered for a bit, "And you said that we should inform the Jedi Council of who you're bringing and that it's even more imperative to tell them about who the Imperials are bringing over, why is that?

Daniels sighed as he looked a futuristic looking watch device, or whatever it was, Captain Picard didn't care. Daniels put the device in his pocket and looked at Picard one final time, "Because it is imperative that they prepare for the worst. Tell them to expect the help of the Jedi Revan for now as he is one of the most powerful force users to ever exist and tell them to prepare for… Darth Vitiate."
