I really don't know much about the academy curriculum other than what is on Narutopedia. So as for length of school day and classes I just made it up from watching the series and going through SE:AMS – DOTS

God...WE HATE THIS CHAPTER- DDOTs

Important notice: Updates will be now once a month due to our AP classes.

Also contest is still open and after this chapter a time skip will occur…we can't be children forever. –DDOTS

The full moon shed its silver light unto the forest clearing as the wind howled in the trees. Vader stood surround by Root anbu but to him they didn't matter it was the person who he lured him here. In his hand an active Vader's lightsaber.

"Have you considered my offer?" Danzo asked as Vader who face and stance remained stoic.

"I have." Vader responded. "But I have some demands."

"Demands?" Repeated Danzo as the boy nodded in confirmation. "What are they?"

Vader looked up at the moon and the countless stars that surrounded it. He could trace all of the Nabooian constellations but his eyes rested on the royal star the brightest one in the sky. 'What would you do Padme.'

A day ago

Primus completed his meditation and opened his eyes. Currently he would've felt the constant sharp pangs of pain all over his body and would've been staring at the burnt remains of his face. Now he was staring at the face that never knew kindness in the world. He stared at his reflection for a long time before rising and longed for the pain to return. The pain was another tool for his fury and he never felt more connected to the Force when his fury was unleashed upon the enemy.

'It early.' Primus thought as he looked out the window. Dawn had barely risen upon the village. As he continued his way to the bathroom he saw Vader steadfastly at work another project. While Primus used sparring as his personal form of meditation Vader tinkering was his. He entered the restroom to begin his shower and left his friend to his demons.

Hours later

Intially Primus approached today with an unusual amount of giddiness that was crushed soon by Vader.

"This is fucking ridiculous." Primus muttered as he stepped out unto street after making himself presentable by Vader standards. His hair was now cut short till only dark stubble remained. He stood dressed by Vader's standard as well. All black clothing with the Sith insignia hurriedly and horribly stitched unto the left shoulder of the long sleeve shirt. He looked at his right arm and felt a pang of anger as it was wrapped in gauze. Vader stated that it's better for people not too ask questions about them, especially since they were under suspicion and watch.

Primus shook his head as he turned to face Vader who was dressed the same as Primus but now had his hair pulled into a short pa'wan braid.

"You're fucking ridiculous." Primus stated as he stared at his friend's hair cut.

"This is Sith tradition." He said gesturing to his hair. Primus knew about the hair…during the years when the Sith numbered many and held an empire. The pa'wans of the Sith Academy to prove their dominance by growing out their hair into a long braid or had string of beads. The longer the beads or hair meant that the student had yet to be defeated. A perfect representation of strength and power of the student yet if they should be defeated or killed in any contest against another student the braid or beads were cut off.

"Tradition." Primus repeated as he shook his head and began his trek down the street with Vader by his side. Thoughts of his days as a child gladiator came to mind and the masters reason behind the spilling of blood in the Pitts...it was 'tradition' they said and offer no further explanation. Quietly to himself he murmured, "Fuck tradition."

Vader POV

Vader simply followed the other children until they reached a large red building.

"The school I assume?" Primus asked as Vader nodded. Vader watched as a teacher greeted the students as they entered as well as the parents. Vader watched the interaction between parent and child as he passed them by. That could've been Pad'me and his child. Vader turned his gaze away from the parent and child as he forced his guilt back down.

'I can't change the past.' Vader stated as he steeled himself. He needed to train more on controlling his emotions and keeping the past locked away. The duo walked through the gate and didn't bother to return the greeting from the teacher and entered the building.

"Where to 'brother'?" Primus said as he looked around with a slight scowl on his face. Vader not giving a response just simply followed the flow of the crowd and ended up in a large room where schedules were being handed out. As the Sith Lords waited in line Primus activated the mental link between the two.

'Vader those kids…their strong in the Force just like Star Killer.' Primus said as he idly scratched his face.

'Your point being…' Vader asked.

'You know what it required of the Sith. Master and apprentice…do you think these people will just let us have our way with these kids?' Primus asked as he looked at Vader.

'No…but I have a plan.' Vader stated as they finally reached the row of desks where academy officials were. "Anakin Skywalker."

"Anakin Skywalker?" The woman repeated as her oval shaped glasses flashed in the light. "Is this a joke?"

"No ma'am that is my name." Vader responded plainly. "I and my brother, Pac are the exchange student from Suna."

"Well I never received word about any exchange students." She stated as Vader began to open his mouth before Primus pushed past. Vader mentally sighed as Primus opened his mouth.

"Well ma'am I don't have anything to say about that but…" Primus began as Vader let out a sigh and placed a hand on Primus's shoulder to stop him from saying something about it. Apparently sensing trouble another instructor with shoulder length white hair and green eyes stepped in.

"Sorry but these kids schedule were placed with me Suzume." The man said as handed the papers over to them. It seemed that fortune struck them good today as the language was written in human basic. "You'd best to get to class…" The boys were already walking off.

Primus POV…6 hours later

Besides the food served for lunch and meeting the kids he ran into yesterday school was utter boredom for Primus. It had looked promising when he was picked for sparring during taijustu class. Sadly he wasn't going up against up the teacher. Some raven haired emo was his opponent.

The boredom barely broke through his facade as he blocked the swift series of punches being delivered to him by…Sauce'K. The boy was highly focused for his age and was obviously talented but compared to someone like Primus he was outclassed. Primus made him pay for the slow jab by grabbing his wrist. It was there he felt it, the dormant midi-chlorians that lay within Uchiha and the rage and pain within.

'He could be strong with the darkside…if properly trained.' Primus thought within that instant.

The boy was stunned by having his punch caught and didn't react to block the series of 'love taps' delivered to his jaw. Finally releasing the emo after five swift blows he fell to the ground clutching the left side of his jaw. Primus didn't need the Force to know he was angry.

'Good…let the anger flow…' Primus initially thought before his face formed a frowned. 'Ah fuck…I'm starting to sound like Sidious.'

Regaining his composure with a stoic face he slid back into the absurd fighting stance the 'sensay' told him to use.

"Bastard." The emo muttered as he stood back up. Primus managed to hear due to his Force- enhanced hearing. With an exhale of breathe the boy launched himself once again at Primus. Primus ran towards the boy and went low grabbing him by the thighs. The boy landed feeble blows to his back but Primus put a stop to that by lifting up the boy over his shoulder before slamming him back unto the ground. It was followed by a groan from the assembled crowd.

Gin POV

In the crowd of assembled students stood a child with brown hair and dark green eyes who seemed to be utterly focused on the match. Just returning from Root HQ after dropping off Vader's lightsaber Gin was eager to begin his assignment.

Gin realized that the boy was much more dangerous than he let on. He saw through the guise easily. Sasuke Uchiha was outmatched from the get go. Using God Eyes he watched Vader as well who seemed to be looking at the only notes he bothered to take… which was about chakra. Hell that was the only class the 'transfer students' bother to pay attention in.

Gin was slowly becoming aware of the fact that their abilities didn't use chakra at all!

"Well that enough." The taijutsu instructor said breaking apart Uchiha and Skywalker. Uchiha was pissed as his fist shook with controlled rage as the instructor told him everything that he did wrong and what he could do the fix it. Primus however didn't seem to be in the least proud over his victory against the year group top student. He simply returned to his spot next to Vader, who now stood behind the Naruko and whispered something into her ear.

Gin cursed himself for not paying attention to Vader. That was the drawback of Gods Eye. If you focused on a target you neglect the surroundings.

Once class let out Gin subtly made his way to his targets.

"Aren't you the new guys from Suna right?" He asked the two as they made their way towards Sex Ed. Pac turned to face him with a slightly confused look.

"Soona?" Primus asked as Gin nodded. "What the fuck is a Soona."

At this Gin was puzzled. Even if you were the biggest idiot in the world you obviously knew what the name of your country village is.

"Sunagakure…"

"Soona got her…"

At this Anakin intervened. "We're from Tatooine. It located away from Suna."

"Oh." Gin said as he nodded in faux understanding. "Well I'm new here too. My family moved from Suna a few months ago."

"Cool." Pac said as he entered into the next room. He turned to Gin with a mischievous grin. "So you excited for Sex Ed."

Gin only nodded it wasn't until the trio took seats in the back of the class that he finally spoke. "I'm just wondering who the teacher is?"

Vader POV

"Sorry I'm late kids." Said a voice that obviously belongs to the instructor of the class. When Vader saw his instructor he felt his anger rise and his eyes began to take on the Sith hue. She wasn't dressed in the way during their first and brief encounter but she obviously forgot the vest most of the other instructors wore.

She should've known her breast were visible through the dark blue body suit. "Anyway, So I am…" It was as this point she wrote her name in that absurd language of this dimension unto the blackboard. "Anko Mitarashi." Vader committed the name to memory.

"So I'm interested in knowing who you are…starting with you." She said pointing at Sakura who seemed surprise to be chosen. Once everyone else had chosen to share with Primus taking up the most time because Primus…well is Primus. When it was Anakin turn many could sense the animosity between the two.

"I'm Anakin Skywalker. Brother of Pac Skywalker. I'm a transfer student from Tatooine. Ultimately my goal will be to…" Vader stopped mid-sentence not just for feeling the class eyes upon him but because he no longer knew his objective. Did he really want to go back? Vader returned to his seat and remained silent deep in thought. Anko waited a moment and continued on detailing the course for Sex Ed.


Jedi Temple, Coruscant

Powerful. Elegant. Faux.

Those word alone best described the tombs of the Sith Lords. Ace didn't care much for the impressive statues or the glowing sigil of the Sith from the hologram generator. He especially didn't care much for those sith inquisitors that constantly snooped around the tombs. He placed an order to have any without proper authorization shot…no questions asked. That deterred those fools from coming and he needed time to think.

Ace didn't know how long he kept his vigil over Lord Primus's 'remains'. He stood their in deep contemplation his brow furrowed behind his helm. He was now the leader of all the clone troopers from the Clone Wars and his actions would be replicated by them all. They would follow him with the same vigorous loyalty they did with Lord Primus and Lord Vader. They would follow him if he carried out Primus's last wish...open rebellion.

Primus had plan for contingencies. Should he die, should Vader die and so on. Now the worst possible had come into fruition and Ace needed to decide. He sent Star Killer deep into hiding. He was pinnacle to this plan if he decided to revolt against the empire.

Yet Ace only frowned. For as skilled as Star Killer is...the Emperor had decades of experience. He didn't need more men...he needed more Jedi. Yet Jedi were scarce these days...yet that didn't mean they couldn't be found. Jacur immediately came to mind but Ace shook him from his thoughts. He and Jacur have faced each other multiple times in mortal combat so any hope of the two leaders coming together would be nonexistent.

"Damnit." Ace cursed to himself as he stared at the great statue of Primus. The statue looked down at him as if waiting for him to come to the conclusion he already had. 'Stop thinking short term but long term.'

Ace smiled as a new idea opened up. He knew about the supposed whereabouts of various Jedi most notably... Yoda. He also knew of the many future force wielders that he could send to Yoda to be trained by the old Jedi master and possibly convince the little green shit to help them and in some masterful stroke get Jacur as well. He could send Star Killer there to refine his skills.

"Moff Ace." A voice called out to him. Ace turned to face the young Princess Leia of Alderaan accompanied by a squadron of guards. Ace knew well about the Force potential in the princess. She would make a great Jedi if he decided to carry out the rebellion.

"Princess." Ace replied with a bow as elegant as one performed for the Emperor. The Clone trooper raised an eyebrow with in his helm as he asked his next question. "Why are you here?"

Normally a person wouldn't have been so direct but Ace didn't care much for politics especially now that he was considering plotting treason. Maybe it's due to the fact he's a clone trooper and built for one thing…war.

"I'm here to pay my respects to Lord Vader and Lord Primus." She answered as he nodded. She walked over to his location on the balcony and looked down unto the memorial. For a long while the two were silent. "Why are you wearing your armor?"

"I'm soldier first." He said simply leaning on the railing. "In these times we need to be ready."

It was quiet once again aside from one of her guards accidentally dropping her gun. Ace response was a simple 'sloppy'.

"What was he like before?" Leia asked starring at the tombs.

"Lord Primus was a-" Ace began before Leia shook her head.

"Vader." She clarified. Ace knew well about Vader, he was among to see the damage done to him after the duel on Mustafar but that information was considered to be beyond classified.

"I don't know." He lied and was eager to get off of the subject. "But I have a question for you Leia."

The Princess turned to face him. "A military matter…I'm afraid you might want to ask someone else."

"Not military. It's a dilemma I'm facing." Ace responded. "I'm faced with a decision that has undesirable outcomes on each path. Which one should I chose…"

"The one that secures the safety and happiness of the people…" She said as he smiled. That answer would be expected from the young princess. Yet it spoke volumes to Ace...she can be a great Jedi. He could almost feel Primus's statue gaze on him forcing his hand.

"Princess. Primus wanted me to tell you something." Ace said. "If you want to change the galaxy…go to these coordinates and accompany my envoy to the Dagobah system." Leia turned to face Ace but he was already on his way.

"Is that what Primus wanted me to do?" She asked which stopped Ace in his tracks.

"Yes...will you follow your friend last words?" He didn't wait for an answer as he once again began he trek. 'Safety and happiness of the people…' Ace thought as the decision became clear. He took one last look at the young princess before leaving the great tomb. He needed one more trump card if he was to be successful with Primus's plan.


Root HQ

The weapon baffled the researchers of the Root. They had yet to discover any substance that could hold up to the red beam but techniques such as a chakra scalpel or how the samurai run large amount of chakra through their blades could depending on how much chakra was use.

Danzo received frequent updates about the research of the weapon but the team ran into a problem. They couldn't disassemble the weapon. This problem could be easily rectified if they got the blow torch out. Yet Danzo forbade it he couldn't lose such a valuable weapons until he knew how to create it. It seemed his plans would have to forward with their unique visitors.

"Bring me Gin." Danzo order to a messenger nearby as he examined the lightsaber hilt. "It time to force our will upon our new guests."

Training Field, Konoha

Primus and Vader sat in deep meditation upon the ground making sure that the darkside covered the area. This necessary precaution came to a head when Vader and Primus ambushed their tailor.

After a fierce scuffle, the Anbu that had been assigned to tail them currently laid unconscious in bushes. Primus using the Force upon the Anbu's mind as it was slowly being bended to suit their needs. The information they gathered from it was that he was the only one assigned to follow them by the Hokage.

Vader and Primus couldn't help but point out the foolishness of them but couldn't deny it's helpfulness to them since they could now feed false information to the machine.

"It's done." Primus said feeling the darkside presence throughout the area. Vader nodded before looking at the path leading to the training grounds.

"They have arrived." Vader said as the twins appeared on the path. He turned to face Primus. "Let's begin."

Primus and Vader rose from their spots and waited the twins. They seemed determined and hopeful but what made Primus speak was their innocence.

"Before we start…I'm giving you one last warning. The path you'll embark on there is no turning back. You'll lose yourself along the way. The path before you will cause you tremendous pain and suffering. Your only friends will be pain and hatred. And the end of the road might not have what you wanted. So for your sake…think carefully." Primus advised as Vader remained silent. The twins starred at each other before nodding. Primus only nodded before stepping back as he allowed Vader to do his thing.

"Give me your hands." Vader commanded as the twins gave him one of theirs. "You both are strong in the Force. I see great potential within both…let awaken it shall we."

Vader sent force lightning into the twins not enough to cause them harm but enough to awakening the sleeping midi-chlorians within. Naruko removed his hands from his grip as she felt some sort of sixth sense awaken in her.

"What did you do?" She asked as Vader dropped Naruto hand. Her brother was reeling from the effect as well.

"Starting your training." He said to her yet not taking his eyes off of Naruto. "Come with me."

With glance to his sister Naruto followed after the other kid to the other side of the training field. Primus picked up two wooden broom handles and tossed on two her. She caught it and waited for Primus's instruction.

"I'll show you no mercy girl." Primus said with all seriousness. "I'm going to teach you the seven forms of lightsaber combat."

"Lightsabe-" She began until she found her throat closed. Primus eyes held burning anger as he made a choking motion with his left hand.

"Speak when you have permission." Primus said uneasily as he released the hold on her. She eyed him cautiously and he seemed to falter, momentarily, under her gaze before he steeled himself. "The way of the Sith demands the utmost from both master and apprentice. You, as the apprentice, must be obedient and loyal. I, as the master, must lead you and show strength. Do you understand?"

She nodded as Primus smiled.

"Good if you do that then they'll be no need for 'corrections'." Primus finished happily before clearing his throat. "Now we'll be starting with learning Shii-Cho which is the first form or primal form. You must master this if you are to achieve master on any other form."

Primus used the Force to set her in the correct stance for Shii-Cho. Once settled into the correct stance she turned to Primus.

"You have a question apprentice?" He asked after inspecting her. He made minor adjustments to her stance for her comfort.

"Yes. What is a lightsaber?" At this Primus smiled.

"Depending on how fast you and your brother advance you'll possibly build one before the year is out." He said not answering her question. He settled into the Shii-Cho stance and looked back at her over his shoulder. "Follow my lead."

Naruko watched the fluid movements he made with the broomstick sword. She copied to the best of her ability yet with every error big to the smallest ones she didn't realize she was making a bolt of Sith Lightning stung her and he would correct her.

Naruto wasn't faring no better possibly. When it came to using the Force the part that was required was one he didn't use very much…his brain. Vader immediately realized that a Jedi approach will have to take place after the Sith method of pain wouldn't help as no improvement wasn't shown.

"Ok." Vader stressed patient already wearing thin. "That boulder…" Vader pointed to a nearby boulder. "You can move it. The Force is just an extension of you. Just imagine that you are lifting the boulder."

Naruto looked at the rock and immediately noticed that it must weigh near a ton. Which is considerably unlikely since some idle ninja moved it here to use it as a resting spot.

"Just clear your mind and imagine the rock being lifted." Vader said as the boy took a deep breathe and closed his eyes. Raising his hand towards the rock, he exhaled after a while, and began to move his arm up. The rock shook before it rose a few inches off the ground. Naruto opened his eyes and was amazed at what he accomplished.

"Do it again." Vader praised as Naruto set the rock down. "This time higher."

Naruto nodded as he once again prepared for his task. Vader noted to himself that boy needed to increase his focus because this was taking an absurd amount of time. Yet training for his focus will be for later.

Hours Later

Primus rubbed the bleeding welt that was becoming apparent on his face as he walked down the streets of Konoha. After the children couldn't take anymore it was time for him and Vader to train. To say that they were awed by power and speed in which they dueled would be an understatement. As proficient he and Vader are with dueling and the Force there body couldn't keep up and it was surprisingly Primus body that gave out first. His arms tired and he couldn't block Vader force strengthen swing. The last thing he remember was the sound of the Vader broomstick sword breaking. Primus awoke hours later alone at the training field and he pushed down the anger of his defeat.

"Pac." A voice called out to him. Primus turned to see Gin making his way slowly towards him he carried a bag of items with him.

"Oh, Gin how are you?" He asked the boy who nodded in greeting before notice the bleeding welt. Primus felt an ominous warning from the Force that quickly disappeared.

Root HQ

With a hand seal Danzo took over Gin. The operation must be flawless if this was to work.

Konoha Street

Gin immediately dropped the bag to rummage through it to draw out a jar of red paste. Primus raised an eyebrow as Gin offered it to him.

"For your welt Pac." Gin said. Primus no longer felt the warning in the Force. He took the jar and applied some paste unto his welt. He allowed himself to enjoy the cooling relief of the medicine before applying more.

"Thanks bro." Primus said as he handed the jar back.

"You hungry...we can go to Ichiraku's I'll pay?" Gin asked as he placed the red paste within the bag. Hunger made it's way to the forefront of Primus's need and the Sith Lord eagerly accepted.

Sith Residence

Onnasuki received confirmation of the boy poisoning and now awaited her orders. It need to be timed just right. Danzo didn't want any fuck ups over this. Yet as she watch Vader deep in meditation she could feel that she wasn't alone. It couldn't be possible that he learned God's Eye. That move remained unique to Gin yet she couldn't shake off that feeling of being watched by that of angry beast.

'Time to get ready' Onnasuki thought as she prepared to throw the package into the work room. She just needed confirmation...

Ichiraku Ramen

Gin sat next to Primus as the two enjoyed their meal. While Primus would momentarily stop eating whenever Danzo released control to look around he hadn't been able to catch unto their plan.

'I'm sorry for the pain that will befall you.' Gin thought as Primus gulped down the large bowl of pork ramen. He watched as the boy ate his poison. "Hey Pac, It was nice doing this with you man."

Primus turned to Gin and smiled. "Same…I used to think this place was inhospitable due to some previous experience, but all that aside I'm glad that I'm here." Primus seemed to realize that it was late. "I have to get going…I'll see you later Gin."

Gin nodded his head as Primus paid for their meal. As the minutes passed Primus felt the Force give one of it vague warnings. Primus eyed everyone and everything through the Force. Nobody stood out yet the persistent warning was there. A few kids bumped into him along the way and it seemed to be on purpose as each time they did they pricked his skin. When he would turn to face them they would vanish. It wasn't until he made through the threshold of his residence did he double over to vomit blood.

"Primus!" Vader called out as made his from the workbench. Primus in his pain could tell Vader was angry. Vader had every right to be. Seeing the footage of his lightsaber being stolen and the anonymous note left listing a meeting place and demands was enough to send Vader's rage boiling. He could sense that damn woman running away from the scene...he would kill her.

Vader came to halt as he saw Primus haunch over and a small pool of blood in between his feet.

'Shit!' Primus cursed as he fell over more blood spewing from his mouth. Vader carefully Force lifted his comrade and set him the couch.

"Who poisoned you?" Vader asked as made a beckoning motion with his hands and grasped one of Primus many lightsabers out the air once it escaped it's hiding spot.

"I don't know…" Primus gasped out as he manipulated the Force to stem off the poison's effect. Vader growled as he stood up. He looked at the note and grimaced. "These fucks think they can play us." Primus said in between gasps. He gave Vader a pain smiled before continuing. "Show them the power of the Darkside."

Vader nodded having every intention of doing that.

"I'll keep the link open just make sure you hold on." He said as he took his leave. As he made his way as calmly and as fast as he could to not attract suspicion. As he made from the residence he immediately bumped into somebody. "Sorry."

"Anakin?" The familiar voice called out to him. Vader looked to see Emi once again and another person who is no doubt her mother. The long silky hair, dark brown eyes and a mature, slender figure that was possibly the future of Emi or not 'cause genetics is weird.

"Emi? It is you…glad to see you're cleaned up but right now I have to go." Vader blurted out. Emi's mother stopped him before he could run off.

"Anakin. Calm down where do you need to run off to?" She asked curiously. She heard all about Anakin from her daughter as he apparently ran off some of her worst bullies.

"My brother needs his medicine is all. I'm just on my way to get it." He blurted out as he tried to get away but was once again stopped by Emi's mother.

"Is he alright?" She asked concerned for the other boy. Vader saw his mother replaced the woman momentarily.

"No…but he will be." Vader said slowly as he turned away from the woman. He didn't want to see his mother. "I just need to go."

Before he could take off, Primus pained yelled was heard throughout the area stopping many other villager along the road.

"Shit." Vader cursed before taking off. If the pain was enough to get Primus to yell period Vader didn't have long. Emi stared at the paper Vader dropped unto the ground.

"Anakin! You left the presc-" Emi stopped as she watched Vader disappear from view. Emi mother took the paper away from her and read it. She noticed the dark change in her mother expression. Another pained yell drew Emi and her mother to Anakin's residence to find the small puddle of blood on the floor. Primus groans of pain caught their attention. He was pale and sweat covered his entire body.

"Emi get Lord Hokage." Emi's mother said putting the letter into her hands. Emi was off and her mother moved to pick up the boy from the couch. Carefully sliding her arm underneath the boy she began to pick him up but his scream of pain stopped the attempt. "I'm sorry."

The boy opened his eyes and turned to face the woman. She saw how much hate and power they eyed her for a moment before steadying his breathing. He came to the conclusion that she wasn't a threat.

"Mother!" He began as he grasped her wrist. Emi's mother didn't like how hot he was but nodded as the boy eyes closed for a few tense moments they remained closed until his grip on her wrist became an iron vice. When his eyes found her they no longer had the gaze and power of a Sith Lord. They were dark brown pools that showed the decades of regrets, misery and pain. He mumbled incoherently but the woman picked up some of it. The parts of how he would end a...Windu, how he was sorry he arrived too late and about following Sidious.

Once again Primus eyes closed and another few tense moments passed. When his eyes reopened the hate and power had returned to them and they took on a sulfuric-yellow hue. He focus his gaze on her face before turning to stare at the ceiling above. He chuckled, through the obvious pain his body remains in, to himself as before turning his gaze unto her. He shook his head sadly at her.

"Mother how wrong your were. Your promised me peace but i know now. Peace is a lie, for there is only passion. By embracing passion, I gain strength. With this strength, I gain power. With this power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me." He gasped out between chuckles and gulps of air. He repeated the last phrase over and over until the medic nin arrived. On the road below the Hokage had a dark look on his face as the boy passed him by.

In a swirl of leaves three nin appeared before the old kage. Might Guy, Kakashi Hatake and Asuma Sarutobi. Each had been informed of the matter at hand and Might Guy was ready to get his hand on Danzo. Internally he was beating himself for not keeping an eye on his charges. He couldn't face Pac knowing that he was responsible for the agony he was in.

"Bring Anakin back and bring me Danzo." He said as the three nin nodded and disappeared.

Coruscant, Throne Room of the Emperor

Ace rose from his kneeling position before the most powerful man in the galaxy. No he wasn't a man. More along the line of an abomination of nature. Though Ace had done this more times than he could remember it felt foreign without Vader or Primus standing behind his throne.

"Moff Ace, please take off your helm." The Emperor said as Ace obeyed. He revealed the face of the long dead bounty hunter Jango Fett. Unlike Jango's face, Ace's face carried innumerable scars and the tattoo of the old republic insignia. With all the battle he seen his gaze remained steady. "It been a long while since I've seen a clones face."

"M'lord, forgive my directness but there was a matter you wanted me to attend to." He said as the Emperor nodded.

"The rebel Jacur is recruiting someone of special interest to me. I need you to secure them both." The Emperor said as Ace nodded. He could feel the Emperor gaze upon him searching for any sign of betrayal that had begun to burrow into his mind. Ace didn't allow any emotion to reach the surface and kept his thoughts clear.

"Who is the other target?" Ace asked. It was then that his data pad on his wrist came into action. Only one named appeared…Luke Skywalker. "I'll send a commando unit-"

"No. It's best you send the entire legion." The Emperor said as Ace nodded.

"Of the targets, M'lord who takes precedence?" Ace asked.

"Their both are important and i will have them in time...but..." The Emperor paused momentarily. "For now focus your efforts on Jacur...his capture will be of the upmost priority."

Ace nodded. "M'lord"

"Moff...Failure will not be tolerated." The Emperor said his eyes boring into his soul as Ace nodded once again and excusing him from the Sith Lords presence. While he felt pang of betrayal for achieving what Primus tried to stop with all his power he couldn't help but feel excited. He couldn't keep the smile from off his face as he began making preparations for the battle against Jacur. That man who killed so many of his brothers will be subjugated to the Emperor's will and for Ace that was probably even better than death.

He felt placed on his helm and entered the shuttle that would take him to the Executor. He starred out upon his fleet. It was massive sporting almost every clone veteran from both Primus and Vaders commands.

'He will not escape' Ace thought as his datapad came to life with a secure link. Apparently the Princess had begun to make contact with his envoy.

Rogue Shadow, Outer Rim Territories

Be nice.

"Be nice?" Star Killer repeated as read the message over.

That was the message that Star Killer received from the man he came to know as his father. He could feel the girls presence in the Force as she made her way to his meditation chamber. He felt something as the girl made her to him. She had no alignment in the Force. She gave off neither the dark or light side ...was she untrained? No preposterous Ace wouldn't send an untrained apprentice to join him...would he?

"She has arrived master." Proxy annouced to the young teen who nodded his head. He could hear the faint click of the rifle that belonged to the trooper that accompanied them. Boss's first and foremost objective was to see to Star Killer safety...one could never be to careful when it came to safety. When the doors opened to reveal the Leia and her guards. Star Killer initially was shocked. The girl had no muscle on her, seeing the softness of her hands probably never held a weapon before and as much potential she had in the Force, she wasn't skilled. Ace sent him a liability.

What Leia saw was a 14 year old sitting crossed legged on the floor in rags. The body that was showing through the rags were covered in scars, his shaggy hair needed cutting as it fell to his shoulders and the fact he had a lightsaber beside him remained a dead giveaway that she was facing one of Primus's legacies. She turned to face the unique looking droid who regard her curiously and the storm trooper who seemed relaxed but any true warrior could see he was ready to fight if one should break out.

"Your Late." Star Killer said as he stood up grabbing his light saber as he did.

"It took time to clean the records of our travel and even more to convince my father to allow me to do this." She said as Star Killer shook his head before Boss walked over to Proxy. Cody whispered something to the droid who nod.

"Star Killer, let's go show our guest their quarters. Once their settled we can start the journey." Boss said as the young assassin nodded as he began to give them a tour of the ship. Proxy stopped the Leia from leaving.

"I've been order to begin your training in Lightsaber combat Princess." The driod said as he handed her one of it's many lightsabers. "That is yours to keep Princess. So we must be as prepared as we can possibly be when we meet the Grand Master."

With as snap-hiss Proxy activated one of his other lightsaber that shot into his hands. The red blade hummed init's hands.

"I've also been order to go slow and easy on you by Moff Ace. Please activate your lightsaber so we may start Princess." Proxy said as Leia activated her and bar of green shot out from the cylinders. "We will first go over the 252 stances of lightsaber combat to determine which is best for you..."

"We may not have time to..." She began as Proxy shook his head.

"We will. Due to safety precautions it will take us a little under 7 months to complete the journey. Now stance one." Proxy began once again.


Location Unknown

The full moon shed its silver light unto the forest clearing as the wind howled in the trees. Vader stood surround by Root anbu but to him they didn't matter it was the person who he lured him here. In his hand an active Vader's lightsaber.

"Have you considered my offer?" Danzo asked as Vader who face and stance remained stoic.

"I have." Vader responded. "But I have some demands."

"Demands?" Repeated Danzo as the boy nodded in confirmation. "What are they?"

Vader looked up at the moon and the countless stars that surrounded it. He could trace all of the Nabooian constellations but his eyes rested on the royal star the brightest one in the sky. 'What would you do Padme...of course protect your friends.'

Vader turned his gaze unto Danzo who in his hands held Vader's lightsaber. The rage within Vader beat itself against his emotional barriers like a ravenous beast.

"First the cure." Vader said as he drew and activated the lightsaber. The red blade came to life with a signature snap-hiss and hummed dangerously. Vader tapped into the omnipresent rage within. With a beckoning motion the lightsaber flew from Danzo's hand to Vaders. Vader crouched crossed the sabers before him. "Second, your head!"

Gin POV

Gin was ways away from the confrontation yet he could feel three nin on their way along with many others. Danzo couldn't be at this scene period.

"-Lord Danzo you must leave. Three nin along with many others are approaching.-" Gin said over the comm as Danzo grunted in confirmation.

Indeed it was time for Lord Danzo to cut his losses...for now

Vader POV

Vader watched in a puff of smoke Danzo disappeared leaving only his subordinates. He pitied them for they now face an angry Sith Lord. For a moment no one moved then in blur all bodies were locked combat.

Vader taking a page out of Primus book activated Force Speed. Not only was he faster, but time slowed around him. He watched in slow motion as the porcelain-masked cloaked men drew swords and he saw the chakra the surged through them.

The brave one was first and wasn't expecting Vader quickness. He was met with a brutal spinning round house kick to the ribs and it sent him and the other one he crashed into spiraling into a tree. Vader landed awkwardly but this was for the follow up. Vader landed like a javelin thrower and threw Primus's lightsaber at the spiraling lackies of Danzo. Yet allowed the momentum of throw to carry his arm behind him and force pushed the remaining five assailants away from him. He turns his body and force threw his lightsaber at the assailant on the far left. He didn't need the Force to know that man was cut in two. The two thumps were his confirmation. He corrected his stance just as his lightsaber returned to left hand.

The groans of the impaled ninjas drew his attention. With a grimace he grip Primus's lightsaber through the Force and made it cut a perfect circle in their stomach. Their screams as beautiful as it were cut short once the saber completed its full rotation. With an upward jerk his hand the saber cut a path from where the ribcage first meet out of their heads. The red blade came flying into his right hand and he turned his full attention to the shinobi getting to their feet. He used the Force to grab one of the remaining lackeys and began to choke him. After a moment of his struggling a loud crack filled the area.

The body hit the ground with a thud yet Vader wasn't finished. The three had risen to their feet and were ready to face him. With a yell of a demon Vader moved at blinding speed towards them He saw the quick movements of hand signs which were followed by ten puffs of smoke for two of the members. While a black mist flowed from the arms and neck of the third.

"Dynamic Entry!" Was yelled as a Green Missile caught the one exuding the mist square in the face. Anakin stopped mid-step, something that Primus would criticize about, to face the back flipping Might Guy who landed next to him

"Anakin!" Guy said turning to the boy who radiated anger yet Guy was oblivious to this. "I'm glad your alright."

"…" Vader returned his gaze back unto the horde of enemies. Anakin deactivated his lightsabers and cocked his arms back before thrusting them forward opened palmed which sent an tearing Force Push towards them. The ground broke apart as the blast decimated the clones and their creators. Multiple poof could be heard as Guy marveled at the young boy power. Anakin felt one was crushed by the rubble the other managed to avoid it and he became Vader next target. One of the red blade came to life as Vader once more sprung into action. He used the Force to propel him toward the remaining enemy. He brought his blade down in a savage arc once he was in reach but found that the Danzo's lackey blocked it with tremendous effort. With speed and coordination only known in a master of dueling he pointed the deactivated lightsaber at the ninjas head and activated it in matter of seconds. With his heighten perception he watched as the blade sprung to life and broke the first the porcelain mask and then through the flesh on bone beneath and out through the back of his head. Primus would've given him 'A' for the kill.

Gin POV

Sweat ran down his face as he watched Vader take apart Danzo's elite.

'How!? Who and what is he!?' Those were the thoughts that raced through his head when he felt another someone else land on the branch beside him. He turned to see the masked Onnasuki.

"How did it go?" She asked as she arrived. This was before she noticed his sweat covered body and pale face. He turned towards her shook his head. "Was it that bad?"

"When you fought Anakin he held back greatly. He's single handedly killed them all." Gin said to her after a long shook as he spoke still coming to grips with Anakin's skill. "We need to cut our losses with these boy before they become the death of us all."

"We need to prepare to destroy their bodies." She began as the boy suddenly stood and began to make his way back the the base with Onnasuki trailing right beside him. "Gin didn't you hear me?"

"We can't. We won't ever." He said finally as he increased his speed wanting to create a much distance between him and Vader as possible.

Hours Later, Vader POV

Vader sat next to a closed eyed Primus who laid 'resting' on his hospital bed. Yet Primus listened to the lengthy conversation between him and old Hokage and now each Sith Lord didn't know what they stood now within the Leaf. Vader gave mixed truths within the tale he gave the old man, the training of the Sith, The Great Jedi Purge and so on yet he kept to the original story which said that the Sith were a religious order and so on. They both felt through the Force the multiple Anbu outside watching them whether it was for surviellance or protection neither knew.

'It gotten incredibly hard to go back home now hasn't it.' Primus said as he shifted in his 'sleep'.

'Yes.' Vader agreed.

'What about the kids?' Primus asked.

'We'll continue to train them...we can use the Force the alter the minds of the ANBU We wont be disturbed.' Vader stated as he broke the link and ended the conversation. His thoughts as well as Primus' drifted towards the first of many enemies they would undoubtedly meet again... Danzo.
