Chapter 5
In A hyper-space route back to Dromund Kass a Sith scouting party begins the war. In the middle of the bridge the captain prepares a holo-meeting with his Emperor. "What is your mission status?" The Emperor asked appearing on the small table. "My lord we were unsuccessful in stopping Revan from reaching Coruscant. And it seems that the Republic is starting to mobilize for war." The captain said his body radiating fear. "You disappoint me captain. You Will Return to Republic space and you will let them know that we are coming. Or will you make me punish you." The Emperor said menacingly. "No my lord my team and I will assassinate Revan before he can lead the republic forces into the battle." The captain said with his head even lower than it was before. "That's better." The emperor said with an evil smile.

"Did you find Gran?" Revan asked Juhani and Mira. "No it's like he just disappeared. Mira said shrugging her shoulders. "Well we can't waste time Mira I need you to find any reliable bounty hunters or smugglers that can help us. We'll need a lot more than by the book soldiers." Revan said. "On it." Mira said leaving to start her mission. "Juhani I'm going to need you to rally all the Jedi in the Republic." Revan said. "As you wish." Juhani responded. "What now?" Bastilla asked touching Revan's arm. "I want you to meet my parents and I have a feeling the Emperor is going to try and hit a bit too close to home." Revan said with malice at the end. "I think that would be wonderful. What about Satele and Jackson though?" Bastilla asked. "They can come with us. I'm unfortunately going to need them do to something once this war begins." Revan said with a grimace. "I'm sorry Revan but why put them together, wouldn't Jackson be put to better use on the frontlines?" Bastilla asked. "When Jackson was in the ward Satele sped up his recovery time by 50% therefore?" "Creating a force bond between the two. So in the end it would be wiser to put them together because they would better aid each other." Bastilla said realizing what Revan was implying. "Exactly what the council did with us." Revan said with a smile.

In the Sith Emperor's throne room his council and he discussed the upcoming invasion. "The room was dark with a circular table with a holo-projector in the middle of it and the Emperor's throne on a pedestal above his council. "My lord where are we to attack first?" One of his council asked. "Jadus." The emperor said gesturing towards a council member who wore black robes and a mechanical mask to cover his face. "Due to Revan's meddling we will attack Korriban and Revan's home world of Deralia at the same time; from there we will begin our assault on the republic. Now the Emperor himself will lead the attack on Deralia along with most of our elite forces and a little surprise for Revan himself. Now when the attack on Korriban begins Jetarek will destroy the republic's space station orbiting the planet, and reclaim the planet." Jadus said with a voice made of horror. "Now what's this surprise you have in store for Revan my lord?" One of the council asked. "Why he'll have to combat the first woman he ever loved." The Emperor said with a sickly smile gesturing to the doorway. To reveal a woman with long black hair, green eyes, an hourglass figure, and skin tight black apprentice garb that left little to the imagination. "Trescea Jin. And his best friend Alek." The emperor said gesturing towards to his side. Alek came out of the shadows and stood on his right side while Trescea walked up to his throne and sat in his lap.

"Captain how should we proceed with Revan?" A scout asked. "We will attack him on his way to Deralia and destroy him and all on board." The captain said with a bit of a smile. "Just how are we going to do that?" The scout asked. "Well I've already sent two of our strongest to Deralia so if we fail they'll kill him. And you and two others are going to attack them in the ship by using these." The captain said revealing to space suits but unlike others these were sleek, black, and had jetpacks as well so they could easily slip into space then the Ebon Hawk. "Then the first mate and I will attack them from the ship so they're distracted." The captain said with confidence. "Ha Ha Ha! This war will be over before it's even started." The scout said laughing.

"Mission I need you to take Dustil and T-3 on a mission to create a security zone across all of republic space." Revan said walking up to the Twilek. "Sure thing Rev. When do you need it done?" Mission said looking back towards Revan. "Tomorrow, and I also need you to watch any chatter to see if you can pick up any Intel on the sith's movements during the war." Revan said. "Alright I'll get ready to leave, and it's good to have you back Revan."Mission said with a grin. "Good to be back kid." Revan said with a smirk walking away to meet up with Gavin before he left. "Yeah well, wait! Hey!" Mission yelled at realizing what Revan called her.
In the temple's hangar friends say their goodbyes for the upcoming journey. "Well let's hope this war's over soon so we can actually live a semblance of a normal life for once eh?" Gavin asked hugging Revan. "Yeah well let's hope that there's less bloodshed in this war than the last two." Revan said with a hopeful smile.
"I hope that the parents are good to you Bastilla." Brianna said to one of her new best friends. "And I hope that your two don't drive you to an early death." Bastilla said with a smile.
"Aah! Who're you!" Durham yelled at seeing a tall figure wearing full republic commando armor with a rifle on his back and in his hands next to Satele scared Durham quite a bit. "Calm down Durham it's just Jackson." Satele said soothing her best friend down. "Yeah little bud it's just armor." Jackson said removing his helmet. "You might want to get used to the look of the armor Durham because you're going to be seeing a lot more of it for a while." Gavin said picking up his son. "Well let us be on our ways we have matters to attend to." Bastilla said with a nod of her head. "Agreed." Brianna said.
