Star Wars Rebels: Eternal Empire
-1BBY-0 BBY
The Eternal Throne, most people of the old age thought it was gone but no one knew that the Bloodline to the Eternal Throne was Tirall, Arcann who became married to Reihal Bridger and then had a son named Ephraim Bridger who married Mira Bridger then had a son named Ezra Bridger. They escaped to the world of Lothal to escape the throne and its troubles.
-The Wild Space Systems- Outer rim
Thousands to tens of thousands of Ships moved idle of several planetary systems; they all bore a symbol not seen in years since the old republic era. The Eternal Empire Imperial Symbol. They reformed themselves under the Grandson of Vella Zarkot; Zahk Zarkot, he was with the granddaughter of Vinn Atrius, Jaesa Atrius. They were faced with thousands to over a hundred thousand Eternal Troopers cloned from the warrior Tragus Rova before he died. They wore armor made out of Duranium. The Eternal trooper army grew to over 10 million thanks to the experts that came later. A Khommite named Shodula perfected cloning to half the time ofKaminoans. They were still being cloned on cloning facilities on Lokath. There also was regular facilities on Doth,Gime,Wamocas,Jot,and Fealza. The Eternal troopers were enhanced with cybernetics and massed produced helped by rogue Kaminoans and a famous Hutt scientist Dundeth Bloqos who was actually able to clone force sensitive human but enhanced with cybernetics to keep the troopers to be more powerful and skilled. The Force abilities couldn't be cloned nor was they wanted too because of fear of rebellions but doesn't mean the troopers weren't loyal as their template. The troopers were armed with vibro blades and blasters. They became the backbone of the Reborn Eternal Empire as the troopers were made faster and covering the years of isolation since the years of the old republic, all of wild space became the Eternal Empire hidden from the shadows of the growing galactic Empire.
There were also regular droid troopers called Skytroopers. They were once again massed produced on Zakuul. They had heard of the Empire and knew that they didn't know or approach wild space and thanks to that Zakuul was unknown as well as the reborn Eternal Empire.
The main reborn Eternal Fleet was again an immense fleet composed of alien battlecruisers of an unknown design which were roughly equal or greater in length than that of a Dreadnaught-class battle cruiser and bigger than the original Eternal Fleet numbering five to ten thousand ships and growing.The Eclipse Warships was mass produced into long dreadnought-class heavy cruisers. These were equipped with fifty quad laser cannons (twenty bow, ten port, ten starboard),twenty turbolaser cannons (ten port, tenstarboard and mounted in blisters), and ten laser cannons (five bow, five stern). Some ships were later customized to feature a warhead launcher for anti-starfighter defense.
Deflector shield projectors were also located inside some of the blisters flanking the hull, and the primary and secondary sensor transceivers were located towards the stern of the vessel, on the dorsal and ventral sides, similar to those on CR90 corvettes.
They were highly advanced, possessing cloaking technology,and operated by sentient droids in combat they were able to overwhelm almost any other vessel.
The grandchildren of the knights made adjustments but their loyalty was to the long lost heir and they sent Eternal troopers disguised as regular people. They finally then found him and wanted to make him their emperor as according to the knight, his force abilities were powerful.
-Lothal- 1BBY
Young Ezra was thieving till he was confronted by stormtroopers and an officer and before they were able to gun him down lightsabers went through their bodies. "Who are you?" The man and the others all kneeled. "We are the Knights of Zakuul and we are your loyal knights…"
"Ok what are you guys talking about?!" He was getting scared and was backing away but the knight pulled off his helmet to show his scar and beard as well as light white hair. He was in the dark blue armor. "My name is Gavean Rylayeam of the Rylayeam clan and we wish for you to come with us. You are heir to our new Empire in Wild space and we wish to take you off this planet and make you our prince till you are ready to become our Eternal emperor.
Ezra was going through much turmoil and confusion which the knight sensed so he placed his weapon on the ground and placed a hologram communicator on the floor and then a message was shown. "Hello, my name is Reihal Bridger and I am the daughter of the late emperor, if you are seeing this then I am dead and you must be my grandchild. I hate that it's come to this but if the eternal empire is to be reborn I wish it to be a empire that promotes peace and I want you, my grandchild to be leader. If you are my grandchild years later then I want you to know that I programmed my personal ZK-094R to take your blood by your permission. I wanted to change the leadership to not fall in the hands back to the Sith Lord that controlled the Eternal Empire." The woman in the cloak said that had long purple hair and looked just like him. "I escaped but, I had hoped that when the empire was destroyed a new leadership under my grandchild can change things so I will unfortunately put the burden on my grandchild and if you are watching this then my personal knight as well has located you cause my daughter succeeded in escaping the Skytroopers that Hunted us. I hate to place the burden on you but, the empire must have been remade so by my last order I wanted my knights to find you. You are last of the bloodline and before the sith find our empire I wish to bring a new dynasty."
Ezra was speechless and sighed seeing as he hated the Galactic Empire, they killed his parents for speaking out so if this Eternal Empire has the power to fight them then he will do it and become a feared Emperor of justice and rule it better than Emperor Palpatine. He was only 12 and nodded. He presented his arm and the knight took samples of his blood which was presented to the other knights as witnesses and the droid which analyzed it. It was a perfect match.
-5 years later- 5BBY
Ezra Bridger was now prince Bridger and heir to the Eternal Throne. The massive army was still hidden to the Imperial Galactic Empire and he kept it that way. Thousands of years and they reformed and now he was their leader. It was a dictatorship so they listened to only him. Thanks to his Knights and his Generals, he made previous lords meet their demise and as much as people thought he grew accustomed to being ruthless and no mercy to traitors.
He had armor under his cloak and was on a mission on lothal. He had a Double-sided Lightsaber long on his back under his cloak that can separate as Split sabers for dual wielding attacks. He was in white armor underneath and now in a helmet with a light up slit and the helmet curved on both sides made out of beskar from mandalorians. He earned them in their trials from a known mandalorian. His whole Beskar armor was specialized for him. It was covering everything but, some part to let his joints move and bend. It was pure white underneath the dark black cloak and hood down to his feet.
His job was to steal a speeder. Four teens would accompany him. They were training to be knights and the most skilled of their generation that they were chosen to be the personal guardians to Ezra. Mesula,Patan Ankekom, Koderan. Mesula was a Zakuul girl with blond hair while Patan was a male with black spikey hair. Ankekom was large and had briefly bald but some hair and finally Koderan had long red hair. Their bodies were covered in armor and they had all cloaking devices that could cover their armor from their wrists.
Besides Ankekom they were smaller or about the same height as Ezra. They were going to steal some imperial shipments and about to attack when he sensed a man, a mandalorian and apparently a Lasat moving in sync so he turned to his companions and nodded.
They all split up and as soon as the man turned to Ezra, he felt something was odd but his main focus was the mandalorian. She wasn't like others but shrugged. He then saw the man was coming out watching.
The mandalorian was placing grenades that seemed to be on remote on the crates joint followed by an explosion. The man hit the operator and the Imperial officers were screaming in reply to the explosion trying to make sense of the situation.. "Protect the crates at all cost…!"
"All cost huh…"Ezra said to himself shrugging and then signaling his squad known as Shadow Lothwolves. "They seem to be pretty good…"
"There's always a bunch of these smuggler types all over…"
The man came out again on a speeder this time from probably another scout trooper and blasted the operator after a brief exchange then the large hairy figure took out more so Ezra took this opportunity to move quickly and leap on the new speeder that was open as well as his companions. "Thanks for doing the heavy lifting!" "Yea, saved us the trouble!" One of his knights was behind him while the other two took a speeder each.
"What the?"
Ezra moved quickly and they were heading for the outskirts. "What now?" The big Hairy lasat from the look of the archives, Ezra was far out of the outskirts. "Follow them…"
He turned to the mandalorian and switched with his knight. "That was pretty cute of you!"
Ezra nodded at her with a smirk under his helmet and used the force to get her off cringing a bit at her landing but, he needed to get the crates out of the city so they could hack the systems to learn of the plans on Lothal. They all stopped and with more speeders following them in the tens to fifty made him question what was happening on this planet that was once his home.
He then stopped and turned to his companions when the hijackers came up. "And who are you?"
"I'm the one who's stealing those crates…" He did notice that the force was strong with Ezra which made him even more interested. "Well they are ours so leave…" He noticed tie fighters coming but he turned to his companions. "Got it,boss…" They nodded and they charged towards the tie fighters which surprised all of the hijackers. They each pulled out lightsabers and slashed through the wings and the larger member of Ezra's group was releasing force lightning on the troopers approaching. The female was with two lightsabers and slashing through multiple units.
As they finished and their tech guy, Koderan, scrambled their scanners against all incoming ships.
The ghost crew was speechless. "Who are you guys?" The man that seemed to be in charge said. "Just stealing something for a larger mission."
He was preparing to attack the Empire on Lothal for his own purpose. He was mostly for sure aiming for the shipyards cause then his empire could expand.
"What mission is that?" The lasat asked threateningly to the point Ezra's guard Patan pointed his lightsaber pike at him. "You better watch your tone…"Kanan was surprised. "Those are lightsabers…" Ezra rolled his eyes. "Of course genius…"
"That's impossible cause the Jedi are gone…" Ezra and all his squad mates laughed. "You think we are Jedi?" The lasat was getting mad and about to charge because he knew his crew would help him. He was underestimating Ezra when Ezra raised his hand and the Lasat was being force choked. "Don't even think of hurting my squad or me!" The man then pulled out two parts of a handle and ignited a lightsaber but Mesula blocked him and deflected each strike while Koderan activated his energy shield to block the mandalorian.
"Everyone stop and please release Zeb!"
A twi'lek female appeared and Ezra released Zeb who was thinking twice of trying anything again. "We are sorry and we mean you no harm, we just wanted to know who you guys are…my crewmate has a temper,I'm very sorry." "No kidding you guys are facing elites!" His response was from the rest of the group of Ezra's knight including Ezra was, "Shut up,Patan!"
"I can see that…" Ezra replied continuing and his squad flanked Ezra with two each and stared at the ghost crew. "Well to answer your question, we are force users…"Ezra replied. "But,aren't they all dead?" The mandalorian girl asked. "No, we have been just hiding sweetheart…" Ezra said with a wink as he took off his helmet. "Did you just call me sweetheart?" Though as she saw his face and then finally his body she noticed, he was quite the looker. Ezra was about 5'5 and lean with muscles and had blue purple hair with white colored highlights."Anyway we will be leaving with the crates…but we can pay you in credits…" The man in charge raised an eyebrow. "What are the crates going to be used for?"
"Killing imperial soldiers and luring them into a trap so my troops can move in…" "Your troops?"
Ezra ignored them and turned to Koderan who nodded and pulled out three bags of credits. "Will this suffice?" They couldn't get a word in.
The ghost crew was speechless once again while they felt the Wind picking up as if a ship was landing but,they saw nothing but a lining in the greenery. "What's going on?"
"Our ride is here…" Ezra replied then smirked as the Eternal Empire Shuttle landed. "Impossible…" The Zakuul Shuttle Dropship or the Eternal Empire Shuttle was similar to the republic gun ship with the wings more folded with a fin on top. It also had a cloaking device. There were also a few Zakuul dropships landing.
"Anyway we will be going and if you cross us again we will hunt you way worse than the galactic imperials…"
"Dam right…"The black haired Knight screeched. "Patan…" The Young knight stopped. "Sorry…"
They were boarding when the man approached. "You guys are force sensitive but you aren't Jedi…where did you get your training?" "On our planet, we aren't telling you where because probe droids might listen…"
Ezra then sensed something and saw more troopers approaching with tanks and walkers so in a instant twenty then thirty ZK-094R Skytroopers marched out of the shuttle ship then more came out of the other Dropships and pointed their blasters. The storm troopers and officers hesitated, never seeing them before. "Identify yourselves!"
"Not a chance…" Ezra then pulled out his staff and started deflecting blaster bolts heading for him and instantly then unleashed force lightning courtesy of his great grandfather, the founder. He charged and the ZK-094R behind him opened Fire Releasing thousands of shots towards the troopers and walkers. Ezra slashed through the troopers and force dashed himself to slash the legs of the walkers. He choked more troopers and nodded. He wasn't going to let them get away as he saw survivors. He charged and sending a full blast of force lightning ending them.
"We need rei…ah…Ah!" Ezra choked him and nodded. "In the name of justice I can't let you people on this planet make it suffer…" He then stabbed the last one and looked around. He then nodded and the whole reinforcements was wiped out. "Geez…" "Can you tell us who you are?"
"Well they asked nicely my lord…" "Fine…we are knights that's it and no not Jedi…" He hated Jedi cause they didn't save his parents as they were the so called protectors.
He turned to his squad. "Let's get going…" "We will be going too…" The Twi'lek said as the ghost crew boarded their shuttle ship. "Till we meet again…" Ezra said to Sabine and then he turned to his Skytroopers. "All right all of you let's get going!" The droids made beeping noises as a sign of yes sir as they boarded.
