A/N: This story is inspired by Star Wars rebel show.
Characters from that Code Lyoko show brought to this story are Ulrich and Aelita. They are added in this fanfiction story, this continuity that is basically a mixture of multiple franchises. The franchises intentionally mixed for this continuity is Star Wars, Ben 10, DC Comics, Marvel, many more.
Characters featured in the story may be different in their origins, personality and their powers & abilities from what they are originally known as. This is done on purpose as I have a weird idea of creating this one big crazy Star Wars story with inspiration from its own story, along with other stories. I hope you enjoy {:
Characters featured in the story:
- Ulrich Stern (Code Lyoko)
- Aelita Schaeffer (Code Lyoko)
- Supergirl (DC Comics)
- Mia Queen (Arrowverse)
- William Queen (Arrowverse)
Maybe some more characters might appear. Haven't decided which ones. There may be without doubt some Star Wars characters added to this story.
Lastly, in the story, the Force will have some additional things not known in Star Wars franchise. It's from my ideas inspired from watching Ben 10, and the marvel movies involving Scarlet Witch.
Somewhere in the Universe...
Fear looms over the entire Multiverse. The Dark Times had eradicated good, setting forth darkness dominating a glimmer of light in every part of the Multiverse. No person dared defied the Empire. Unlike the Empire, they possessed no power greater than them. That is why the Empire has lived in peace for so many years even though minor disturbances occur in the Universe, only they are resolved by cold-hearted killers who have specialty ridding the Universe of good. Good men, women, and children once existed, only to perish. Nobody ever dared reflect on the past.
A dune seas of Tatooine are difficult to walk on these days. Hardly anyone feels pleasure swimming through the sands. No one believes it's safe walking through them, although they believed death is better in the regions of no villages there than suffering endless torture from the Empire. They consider it merciful. Is it even factual any death is merciful? What would happen after they are gone? Rumours say the Empire has a method to drag the dead into constant torture, spoken by lifeless beings who experienced the wrath of the Empire.
The long walk across the village feels like walking through an alley in the daylight, anything can pop out from the faint shadows. Death is quick to happen around here, at least metres away from where the individual walks. Unpredictable, and fearful. Is suicide ever the answer? To them, it feels like they're having temptations wanting to end the pain. A small extension of Force over the village of the living half-buried in sand showed the truth. The senses in Force went unnoticed. They all minded their own business, though if they discovered, fate by torture is worse than death. This pinkette was far out of everyone's weak perception.
She approached a store that provides water supply, though monthly. It wasn't much, but the lady can survive years without hydration. Her mastery over Force keyed the functionality of her body. By the store, a man not difficult to recognise. A middle-aged man, gray hair, smokes daily, wears the same clothes everyday. Dressing is no longer crucial in Tatooine. The world is full of dead people.
Once the salesman got a good look at the lady in dull robes, he immediately recognised her. Her size varies to many half-dead dwellers. "Huh, you again? My only regular customer.", the dried-faced, wrinkled, fat man said. He drank a sip from the remains of the drinks he carried with him.
The pinkette wasn't bothered with what the man was drinking. She was interested in water. She doesn't need water, but somebody else needs it. "Assuming that's water, do you have a spare?", she asked.
The man looked at with a weak dreadful expression. "No more water to spare.", the big man said sadly. Thoughts of no water circle, no water, no reason for surviving. Tatooine's elegant arcadia chained his fate, where the sands shall bury the other half of his dying body. "Take my word of advice, lady". Slowly, he draws a gun out.
Initially, she thought the guy has succumbed to a selfish personality, only to see the man is going to aim at himself.
"Don't know how old you are. Seeing bitches like you at young age, you have a long way to go. Do something with your life, kid.", the man advised. He pointed his gun at his head.
The lady tried to stop him by reaching her hand out of the cover of his robe. She was too late, the man shot himself in the head. There is nothing she can do now. The old man is dead. Wanting to help was a temptation, but cowardness drags her away, in which she does. She knew she could not stay here. This town is under the influence of a powerful gangster.
Luckily, no eyes were on the pinkette. She hid somewhere a few stores away. By the time she moved away from the store, no one had seen a woman dressed in robes. At least she didn't need to worry about escaping the town. Punishment is cruel, and anyone is willing to bring the law-breaker to the gangster. Never an explanation why they do this. Maybe fear has an ascendancy to force the people to do selfish things just for their own safety. Blame can't be pinned at anyone, everyone has a family, a dying parent, child, or a pregnant wife. In her case, she has someone she needs to protect.
Since water supply is no longer available following the death of one man that spared a little, the lady departed the town.
After her departure from the town, the pinkette rides on a creature known as an Eopie. It was very indistinguishable given the sight of the sand ocean blended into the sky-glare. There was a high sandstone that dominated the skyline to one side. The rest of the directions showed a series of dunes. A faint cloud of dust particles rose, the lady ignored them, calmly passing the vague haze.
The distance is longer, which was no surprise. To live in a shelter very far from the town was a logical choice. Wouldn't want bandits appearing? In fact, some had driven to craziness, outstretching to the wider directions of Tatooine. It wasn't really a problem once they are quickly knocked down, with their memories erased, especially of their pathetic life.
The legs drift with rocking motion, moving further across the sand-sea. A ride this long requires steady patience and staying very calm. Most idiots would burst out from impatience, and waste their breath till they are fully drained, and fatefully dead. She passed a lot of bones of enormous creatures, strongly possible they died from the overheat, or by bandits. These bandits certainly have patience and calmness to survive across the mounds of sand.
The journey ahead is not pleasurable, not plentiful of laughs. One step reaches, the next step goes, the shorter the distance becomes of the woman's travel back to a temporary home.
Again, she crosses the many seas of sands, the silky path. There across, a sierra. This is where she needs to get across, a long jagged mountain chain. No problem with that. The Force will strengthen her, and her inclination to break her idleness. The urge to return to someone important to her is preserving her strength.
An hour later, the woman arrived back at the shelter. The mind continuously active within the lady's senses in Force made the pinkette not feeling anxious. Its heart beats functionally. That's all that matters. Since her arrival, the lady did not feel any ripples reaching up to the shelter, no presence. It was a void, and it remains that way.
Inside the shelter, the lady saw straight away a familiar face of a man lying on bed. This bed was built by her. Her engineering skills aren't that great, she was at least able to provide the man to take his drained body set right over a flat-structured rock.
She reached the bedside, leaning on the man. "I'm sorry, Ulrich. No water supply today.", she said. "Your older sister, Aelita, couldn't find water.". She sighs in frustration. At some point in her life, she's going to have to make the decision to leave Tatooine. The struggles are intensifying, she acknowledged gradually. It's not like Ulrich will instantly die, he's an Anodite, a humanoid energy being, like her, they will survive, but water being brought to Ulrich is due to what happened to him. He isn't at full strength.
The fact is Aelita could've done anything with her powers. Unfortunately, using them recklessly such as constructing an actual bed, materialising food, providing warmth around the shelter, or replenishing Ulrich at full strength could draw suspicion from the Multiverse. The Multiverse is made up of infinite Universes, it doesn't mean the Empire won't have difficulties finding an Anodite if he or she uses Force. That is the whole part of the reason why she chose Tatooine, a desert world.
Who knows how many ghosts flow in Tatooine? Many times she wonders if Tatooine is the right planet to dwell, and hide in. As mentioned, at some point in her life, she's bound to decide whether to leave the sands, or continue immersing in the sands.
A/N: Hope the story has kept you interested. In the Code Lyoko franchise, Aelita and Ulrich aren't blood-related, but in this story they are. This is taken in inspiration from the things I saw online regarding Aelita and Ulrich's relationship compared to that of siblings.
The next chapter will feature Supergirl, Mia Queen and William Queen.
