A/N Any suggestions welcome. This is my first fic, let me know what you think or what you dont. Thanks
HUGE SHOUT OUT TO PHANTOM1 FOR HIS WORK AS A BETA, GREAT JOB!!
In a brilliant flash of light Harry entered the new dimension. There was nothing but emptiness around him. There were no local astronomical landmarks that Harry could get a relative bearing from, so in essence he had no idea where he was. Since he was operating blindly for the moment, Harry wanted to be prepared for anything.
The first thing that Harry wanted to do was fortify his position just incase the locals weren't too friendly and put some of his new satellites into orbit around Camelot. He set these ones up as defense platforms and kept them cloaked so that any hostiles wouldn't know that they were there. He deployed nine other satellites out of the system in a circular pattern with Camelot being the center. He made sure that their cloaking devices were activated; he didn't want anyone to know he was here until he decided to let them know. If he learned anything from the last dimension, it was that information was everything and being prepared was just as important.
Harry wanted to go out in the Marauder and explore but he couldn't leave Camelot in such a vulnerable position: He didn't know where he was, floating out in open space, visible to all that came his way. Even though the powerful city shields could stop just about anything as long as there was power, and with three ZPMs there was plenty, he wasn't going to chance it. Since he couldn't explore, he did the only thing left for him to do: Wait. He had to wait till he had more information so he could make the best possible choice. But while he waited, he decided to see about creating something he had been thinking about since he left his home dimension.
Making it to his lab, Harry got to work. He wanted to find a way to keep in contact with all the dimensions that he visited so that he could know what consequences his actions created, if he needed to speak with someone, find resources, or needed allies, this could allow him to do without taking Camelot and using his DDrive.
Knowing that black holes could cause the wormhole of a stargate to make the other end come out in a different, totally random dimension, Harry needed to create a black hole, and then use it to create a connection to a targeted dimension.
The targeting of different dimensions would be tricky, but thankfully Harry already had technology that would target specific dimensions as part of the DDrive, so the next step would be to replicate the targeting systems for use with his transdimensional stargate. After instructing the central computer what he needed regarding the targeting systems, Harry moved on to the next problem: To create a stable black hole.
As Harry began to figure out how to create a black hole, a thought came to him. Ambassador Delenn gave him the specs for a perfectly controlled quantum singularity, also known as a black hole, in the form of a power core. While a black hole might not be able to power the gate and alter the dimension the wormhole would lead to at the same time, two of these power cores would do it nicely. One power core to power the gate, because that is what Harry wanted to use and one core to actually power the targeting systems that would allow him to connect to other dimensions. That was the basic concept for his transdimensional stargate.
Working with holographic models, Harry began the task of building the transdimensional stargate, or TDS for short. Harry decided he wanted the TDS to be only accessible by him, and him alone. In order to make that happen, the TDS would have to be different than any other gate ever created.
First, the TDS would need to have thrusters so that it could move out of the way of any ships it came across. It would also need sensors so it'll know when to move as well as an AI computer core to actually know when it needed to move and where to move. In order to make sure it was left alone, Harry wanted to install a cloaking device on it and also a very power shield. He also decided to install a powerful plasma canon a last resort weapon.
Building the TDS itself would be simple, the actual getting all of the different components to work properly would be tough. The AI, which would be created to mimic Camelot's own AI, needed to 'grow up' and that would take time. Installing the targeting sensors and a standard sensor suite would be relatively easy, but time consuming. Creating the power distribution system to power the transdimensional sensors, shield, cloak, ion cannon, standard sensor suite, AI computer, and the stargate itself would be tough. What would really make it tough would be using two alien power cores to power everything. The only saving grace was that the designs and physics of all the individual systems were tried and true. All he had to do was put them altogether in a way that made everything work.
After several hours of tedious work, impossibly long calculations, and moving information from one device to another so many time that it looked like someone was making laps at the local horse track, Harry had a working prototype, well, a holographic one at any rate. He discovered that with a couple of small tweaks, he could actually power the device TDS with a single quantum singularity power core, including the wormhole that would connect two different dimensions in a controlled way.
Because of this breakthrough, Harry did not have to use any ZPMs to power the gate he would leave in each dimension. This meant that he did not have to worry about the possibility of one falling into someone else's hands.
The TDS itself was enlarged from the standard 22 foot diameter, which was what all current stargates in existence were, to 40 feet in diameter. This would allow larger ships, like the Marauder, to pass thru as well as standard stargates.
Harry also figured out the best option for protecting the gate, its technology, and the dimension's inhabitants from anything trying to get thru from somewhere else in the event of a security breech. He installed a very sophisticated auto destruct program in the AI computer that would run the gate.
In the event of a security breech, the AI would attempt to contact Camelot or Harry for thirty seconds before concluding that the threat was real and to continue the self destruct sequence. The program would release the containment fields surrounding the power core, allowing the quantum singularity to destroy not only the TDS, but whatever was threatening the gate and the stability of the dimensions.
To close the singularity after the gate had been annihilated, the TDS would house one high yield nuclear bomb that would be launched away from the TDS encased in a high power shield so that it would survive the destruction of the gate and the containment breech. Fifteen seconds after launch, which according to Harry's simulations would be long enough to ensure the TDS was destroyed, the nuclear bomb would detonate, sealing the black hole and protecting all of the dimensions. Harry was proud of his work, to say the least.
Harry ordered Camelot to begin construction on two of the TDS, one for the dimension where he visited Babylon 5, and second for this dimension. After a long discussion with himself and viewing the current condition of his resources, Harry decided to make the TDS as he went in order to save his stockpiled resources.
It was during his conversation with himself that he realized that Camelot was a large city and that he was alone in it. He had been alone a lot over the course of his life, but now he truly felt alone. Hermione, Ron, Ginny, Neville, Luna, Remus, Tonks, McGonagall and the others were still in their own dimension trying to survive Snape, Riddle, and the Death Eaters. He knew he had the ability to return at a moment's notice and at anytime in history, but it was still tough on him. He knew sooner or later he wanted to go back and get Ginny. Even though he knew that he wanted to be with her, Harry realized that he might need to do something drastic to ensure the return of his people.
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Harry went back to working on the TDS system.
While Harry was busy designing the TDS system, the satellites that he sent out to gather information were collecting large amounts of data on this dimension. Already, they have found multiple populated worlds and completed low level scans on the local space craft, technology, and political climate.
Since the satellites were really made for staying in one spot and observing, the Camelot AI notified Harry that two dozen more satellites should be built. Harry agreed and also designed and ordered the construction of a dozen high powered probes, and sensor relays. Each unit was hyperdrive capable and was built to be invisible from sensors and curious eyes.
As they were done being manufactured, he let Camelot determine where they should go to provide the most intelligence in the shortest amount of time. As these devices were deployed, Harry would have the existing satellites stay in orbit of the most advanced and highly populated planets so that they could record more information. If Camelot needed more of these devices, it would create more and deploy them as needed.
From the data, it was easy for Harry to paint a picture of this dimension: Bleak. It appeared that this galaxy was in a state of civil war. The two main factions in this war: The first was the ruling body called the Galactic Empire, which was ruled by the iron fist of its Emperor. The second faction was called the Rebel Alliance. Evidently before the Galactic Empire emerged, the galaxy was governed by an intergalactic republic. The republic itself was run by the Galactic Senate. Since the rise of the Empire, as it was called for short, the republic that it had replaced had been called the Old Republic.
It seemed that no mater your ties, if you disagreed and or talked in opposition to the empire, you were considered a rebel and dealt with accordingly. The Empire controlled the galaxy thru fear. They had huge armies and a space navy larger than the Earth Alliance and the Alterran navies combined. With that much firepower at their disposal, they were very dangerous.
The satellites also gathered information on two groups who could use something called 'The Force'. It was very similar to the two factions on his Earth, the light side and the dark side. Of course the two factions fought each other every chance that they got.
Apparently the light side, called Jedi, lost, and lost badly, to the dark side, called the Sith. Apparently the Galactic Emperor himself was a sith lord. A Sith Lord was someone who was well versed and quite adapt at manipulating the 'dark side' of The Force.
After reviewing the information, Harry compared the Emperor and his hold on the galaxy to Voldemort and his desire to control Magical England. The only difference was that Emperor Palpatine was working on a galactic scale, which if Voldemort could, he would work on as well. That thought alone sent chills up Harry's spine.
The information Harry received on the space craft being used was promising though. The main ship of the Empire is the 'Star Destroyer'. It was 1600m long and 1015m wide. It carried 72 fighters; called TIEs and had several shuttle type craft available as well. Its weapons consisted of Turbolasers and Ion Cannons. For defenses it had shield generators and very thick hulls. It seemed to be powered by a Solar Ionization reactor. While the power output was high, it didn't compare to any vessel of war that he could create.
These vessels were deployed in high numbers and could bring fire very quickly onto a target. This was the standard and most common type ship that Harry's satellites were able to gather Intel on but they were not the only ones. There were ships that seemed to be made for ground troops and their ground assult vehicles and also larger ships that roughly had the same design as the smaller Star Destroyer. The differences were that the larger ships were indeed larger and carried more weapons, more spacecraft, and much more power.
Since the satellites were just using passive scanners, they had to use the information from the hacked Holonet to fill in the information they couldn't gather from the soft scans. There wasn't much information available in the Holonet on the rebels except for rumors and propaganda.
Harry's computers and satellites were able to already crack the encryptions on the low security level transmissions of the Holonet and the hypercomm that this dimension used.
From what Harry's spynet could gather, the Rebels used a wide array of carriers and destroyers, though they had recently began to use ships built by one of the many races in this dimensions, the Mon Calamari. The Rebels seemed to use guerilla warfare mostly, which was probably for the best since the empire outgunned and outmanned them.
This dimension had the largest number of different species that Harry or his ancestors had seen in one galaxy. It seemed that the Empire was against species other than humans in any form of power or position of worth.
This government reminded Harry of what would occur on his home soil if Voldemort was to win the fight there. That thought, which he already had once so far, Harry's blood boil. Total subjection of a race because of the hatred and bigotry of a few was unacceptable. To this end, Harry decided to amp up spynet so he can get all the information he could as soon as possible. This meant that he would increase the power consumption of Camelot, but with three almost new ZPMs in place and three more almost complete, that was acceptable.
With nothing better to do, Harry decided to search for usable and valuable resources that he could mine to replenish his stores and to add to his growing collection.
Harry used the hacked portion of the holonet and hypercomm to get information on the types of raw materials that were of worth there. Available to him from the hack was a list of around twenty ores and minerals with a description of what they were used for. Several were known to Camelot's computer files, they were just known by different name. Uploading this list into the search parameters of the spynet, Harry set out to find some of these materials. Looking at the scans from Camelot and his spynet, Harry discovered an exotic form of carbon in an asteroid belt in the next system over from where he was currently located. He decided to go there and set up a small mining operation while Camelot was busy gathering all the data it could on this new dimension.
Moving Camelot over one system was a quick and easy task. When Harry was close to the asteroid field, he went to the construction bay and set to work. After freeing up one of the slips for the construction of the pieces of the mining station, Harry started to design the mining station. While the pieces would be constructed inside the slip, the mining station would be assembled in space. Since he was going to make the station have cloaking and shielding technology, he didn't need to use any of his more valuable materials in the construction of it. He ended up with a half sphere shaped outer shell.
The exotic carbon would be placed on the flat side with all the mechanical parts hidden in the half sphere. Also in the sphere would a tunnel that led to a refinery. Once refined the carbon would be moved to the topside of the station by dedicated transporter.
Better to be safe than sorry, Harry decided to put two plasma cannons on the station to protect all of the valuable technology on board. The station also had access to the growing spynet so it didn't need its own sensors to operate. After it was complete, the mining platform would have a diameter of 200m. The entire thing would be powered by a naquada reactor that was rigged to self destruct if the station's defenses were breached.
With that design completed and construction commencing, Harry created platforms that would ferry the raw ore to the refinery. These platforms were thin and contained only thrusters and would be controlled by the computer on the station. With these set to be constructed after the station was complete, Harry returned to his quarters to rest and review some of the information his spynet has gathered.
With a start Harry jumped up from the chair in his room where he had fallen asleep. The reason why he had jumped back to the waking world was because Camelot was trying to contact him. It appeared that his spynet picked up on some interesting readings from one of his satellites and deemed the information worthy enough to wake him. Apparently one of the satellites picked up on some interesting power readings on a planet.
The planet in question had a single high power reading that was stationary as well as power readings slightly lower than the first. The lower readings were the exact inverse of the more powerful power source making them both invisible to most sensors. The lower powered ones seemed concentrated on one thing though, a small humanoid creature. If Harry's spynet didn't have such powerful scanners, the creature's energy would have been completely masked and remained unseen.
Harry decided that once his mining station was completed he would head over to that planet and try to meet the creature that was trying to hide. He had a suspicion that it was one of the elusive Jedi that was trying to remain unseen from the Sith. If that was so, it would be a lucky find indeed.
After the final piece of the mining station was beamed inside the asteroid belt and constructors were beamed there to finish construction and to begin the mining, Harry made his preparations to leave. The hyperspace trip would take ten minutes at half power. He decided to not stress the engines and Camelot herself by making quick entrances and exits in hyperspace.
Exiting the hyperspace window that was a million kilometers away from the planet, Harry coasted Camelot the rest of the way to enter a high orbit of the planet. The planet was a swampy one that didn't really have any large bodies of water in which he could set Camelot into so Harry decided to leave Camelot in orbit with all defenses and offensive systems at full alert. He would be taking a puddle jumper down to the surface since he didn't want to give away that he had teleporting technology. Making his way to the jumper bay above the main control center, Harry made quick work of leaving Camelot and heading to the planet's surface.
The puddle jumper's sensors had a lock on the two power sources so Harry decided to land in between the two. After landing, Harry exited the puddle jumper and turned on the cloaking device. Since he was so near, the two powers were almost tangible and Harry could feel the humanoid creature approaching his position; in order to show that he wasn't hostile, Harry kept his hands at his sides and clearly visible. From around the bend, Harry saw the creature that radiated power. It wasn't what Harry was suspecting at all. It was short, very short, and green, had bat like ears, and walked with a cane.
"Come searching for something have you?"
"Yes I have and I have seemed to find it, you. I am Harry Potter, what's your name sir?"
"Yoda I am. From around here you are not."
Yoda was intrigued. This Harry Potter was an enigma. He had one of the most organized minds that Yoda has ever seen. This made it easy and yet very difficult to get a good reading from him. And he was strong, very strong. But it wasn't the force exactly. It was close, like a close cousin but still different. He also seemed to radiate kindness. Dark he was not, of that Yoda was sure but that was about all he could get. Maybe he was sent here by The Force to help fix what Yoda himself had a part in creating all those years ago.
"You are correct; I'm not from around here. I am actually a long way from home. When I arrived, I heard the story of the Jedi and the Sith. My satellite in orbit picked up the energy that you seem to radiate so I wanted to come and meet you." Harry sat down so they were on a more even level.
"Heard stories have you? Believe them you do?" Yoda kept walking around Harry, seemingly inspecting him.
"Yes I do, from what I as able to gather Jedi had metaphysical powers, were keepers of the peace and were excellent fighters. Lived kind of like monks."
"Heard of monks, I have not. Silly things, rumors are. If Jedi you find, then what?"
"Well I would see if they are willing to let me learn their ways, their culture, and their technology. Where I am from, I am fighting a similar battle as the one they fought; I need all the help I can in order to win. I don't want to see what happened to the Jedi happen to my people because the person I am fighting is just like the Emperor here, just not on a galactic scale."
If this was true then Yoda didn't want to imagine what would happen to Harry's home, but he had to be sure. "See this I must. Open your mind you will. Invade I will not. The truth, I must see."
Harry thought about it for a minute. If his suspicions were correct and this really was a Jedi then he could stand to gain a lot from this Yoda. So Harry agreed. But before he let Yoda in his head, he had to lock off certain parts of his mind. All he wanted Yoda to see was his experiences and his memories, none of his knowledge. He imagined all that he wanted Yoda to see as a book. He then projected that book and only that book towards Yoda.
If it wasn't for the experience and strength in the force, Yoda would have been injured from the sudden rush of information that assaulted his mind. In an instant he saw all that young Harry had to share with him. He saw how a young, emotionally deprived, abused boy turned into a strong, emotionally driven young man. He saw his years at Hogwarts and how he learned MAGIC!! The things these people were capable of!
This 'magic' was definitely an off shoot of the force; that was for certain. He saw how one second Harry was a hero and the next a kid seeking attention. But he didn't want the fame or the notoriety. Then he saw the beginnings of his quest to destroy the Dark Lord that was terrorizing his people, including the choice to leave his soulmate behind where it was safe. It was the right choice, but it cut the man in front of him deeply and the only person who could heal this wound was this Ginny, who was not only powerful like Harry, but also experienced many of the same horrors.
Yoda saw that Harry was right; his Dark Lord was just like Palpatine. He hated anything that wasn't like him and craved power through the sufferings of others. Then he saw Harry's life flipped upside down when he was told about his legacy. He saw the strength and character in young Harry to take up the mantle of his ancestors to try to right their wrongs, it was a selfless act, but it was a task that Harry would take again and again because it was the right thing to do, not necessarily the easy thing to do.
Granted Harry would learn of ways to defeat his enemy but Yoda could see that he would find a way to win anyways. He saw this young man's interesting journey through the dimensions and the way in which he helped others and treated everyone fairly.
Harry was living two of the adages that Yoda he had instilled in generations of Jedi including Qui-Gon Ginn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, and Anakin Skwalker to name a new: 'Do. Or Do Not. There is no try.' And 'Do onto others, the way you wish to be treated.'
He had to digest all this and meditate with The Force and allow it to guide him on the correct path to see if he should help him. His first instinct was to do all that he could to insure Harry's victory but rash decisions were for the young.
"Think on this, I will. Hungry I am, eat with me you will."
"That sounds like a good idea. I am famished." With that Harry got up to follow Yoda, hoping that the information he shared would help him gain the knowledge he needed.
A/N the chapters been up for about an hour and already im getting reviews about the Harry/Ginny pairing. Well just because they will get together doesnt mean that it will be right away and it doesnt mean that Harry wont be with any other girls. Long story here with plenty of time for all things.
