AN: Ok, things are a little slow right now, but trust me, I'll try to speed things up soon.

Ty and Jacen sat down aboard the shuttle next to each other. To make the trip shorter, they began talking about their lives before the Empire.

"So, where are you from?" Jacen asked.

"My family and I lived on Coruscant," Ty repied. "My great grandfather was the first to move there a few years before the Clone Wars started. What about you?"

"Corellia," Jacen replied. "My parents moved there about two years before I was born. Why'd you sign up?"

Ty ran his hand through his blonde hair. It was more of a nervous habit now when he didn't know what to say. Truth be told, he joined to live up to his family's expectations.

"To stop the Rebel Alliance from plunging the galaxy into disorder," Ty replied. "My parents often told me when I was young how the galaxy was before I was born."

"Oh," Jacen said. "I joined because I had nothing else to do." He laughed.

"Prepare to dock with the Star Destroyer," the shuttle's pilot said from the front.

"Well, that wasn't so bad," Ty said. "I wonder what Admiral Drayson is like?"

"I guess we'll find out soon enough," Jacen said.

A few minutes later, the shuttle docked with the Star Destroyer and everyone marched out and stood in formation. Standing not far away were two people. One appeared to be approaching middle age with his greying black hair. The other was about one foot shorter than the other and had dark brown hair. After everyone stood in formation, the older man began speaking.

"Welcome to the Black Hole," Admiral Luke Drayson said. "Standing next to me is Captain Xander Vuroan, my second in command. When I finish, he will be in charge of showing you around the Star Destroyer and where you will be staying. Now, I'm sure you all are aware of the recent loss of the Death Star and thousands of Imperial soldiers at the hands of the rebels. I am sure each of you will do your best to help fill in the void and make the Empire even greater. It makes me glad to see there are those who still want to protect the galaxy from chaos and terrorism. Unfortunately, at the moment, I have important business to attend to for Emperor Palpatine. Go ahead, Captain."

Admiral Drayson turned and walked away.

"Hello," Captain Vuroan said in a serious tone. "Please follow me and, as Admiral Drayson said, I will show you around the Star Destroyer."

Captain Vuroan showed them the basics such as the mess hall and areas, given their rank, they were not allowed to enter and areas that they were. Finally, Captain Vuroan showed each where they would be staying. Luckily, Jacen and Ty rooms were next to each other.

"Now go settle into your rooms," Captain Vuroan said. "Your first training mission will not be long off."
