The Immortal Jedi

By Andrew Cabral

inspired by the movie

The Jedi, they live among us using the power of the Force at their side. This is the story of one Jedi, Galen Marek and his everlasting search for vengeance, honor, peace and freedom for the galaxy.

Deep within the Jedi Temple on the planet of Coruscant, a Jedi woman named Mawley Jade was in labor and was giving birth to a child; a child who would change the galaxy…forever. Mawley screamed in pain as she was giving birth. The droid that was delivering her child said to her, "One more push, Mawley, push." Mawley screamed as she pushed really hard. Suddenly, the cries of an infant were heard and a child was born. "A boy, it's a boy." The droid said as he cleaned the baby up, wrapped it in a white cloth and gave the baby to her.

Mawley, who was exhausted but filled with so much joy, received the baby. She looked down at his sleeping face, "Hello, we finally meet." tears of joy began streaming down her face as she began crying.

Suddenly, two Jedi Masters walked into the room. Their names were Kento Marek, who was the father of the child; his hair was slicked back and down to his neck, and he wore gray Jedi clothing with the lining being black and white. Next to him was his friend Cin Drallig who was Battlemaster of the Order; he had really long hair tied back that went down to his shoulders and wore brown Jedi clothing with the lining of it being gray. Cin looked at Kento, "Congratulations, my friend."

Kento replied, "Thank you, Cin." Kento looked down to see Mawley with their baby in her arms. Kento placed his hand on Mawley's face, "Mawley, are you alright?"

"Yes, I'm alright."

The two smiled at each other and kissed. Mawley looked at the infant, "Isn't he so beautiful?"

"Yes, what shall we call him, my love?"

Mawley paused for a moment, "His name…is Galen, Galen Marek."

"Galen, I love it." Kento and Mawley embraced. They looked down at Galen and smiled.

"He has your eyes." Kento noted.

"And your looks." Mawley replied.

Cin smiled at the new parents, "I'm so happy for the both of you." Cin replied.

Mawley smiled,"Thank you, Cin."

Kento then thought of an idea, "Let's take a picture, to celebrate this special occasion."

Mawley got excited, "Yes, that's a wonderful idea."

"I will get a camera." The medical droid declared as he went out to get a camera to take a photo of them.

He returned and was preparing to take a picture of them. Kento sat next to Mawley wrapping his arms around her and Galen; Mawley looked and saw Cin standing by, "Cin, come take a picture with us."

Cin smiled embarrassed "Oh, no no, I couldn't possibly-"

"Come on, you're a member of this family after all," Mawley insisted.

Cin felt very appreciated. "Alright then."

Cin came to the other side of where Mawley was and placed his hands in front of himself. They smiled as the droid took their picture. Afterwards, Yoda the grandmaster appeared before them. He smiled at Kento and Mawley. "I congratulate you and for your child."

"Thank you, Master Yoda," Mawley said smiling.

"See him, may I?"

"Yes."

Mawley moved Galen closer to Yoda; the grandmaster closed his eyes and placed his hand on the child's forehead. The baby cooed as Yoda sensed the Force within him. "Hmmm, strong with the Force, this child is."

"Really? That's wonderful," Mawley said happily.

She looked down at Galen and smiled, "You'll bring peace to the galaxy someday." She then kissed Galen on the forehead. A couple of weeks went by. Mawley and Kento loved their son Galen with all their hearts. Mawley lifted Galen up into the air and smiled and Galen began laughing as she did it.

Kento and Cin looked proudly at the two of them. "That boy has much potential with the Force," Cin said.

"Yes indeed, I foresee he'll become a great Jedi Knight."

"How do you know that, Kento?"

"It is the will of the Force, Drallig."

Cin started feeling concerned and worried. "Kento, I worry that something bad might happen to you or to Mawley."

"What're you saying?"

"I'm saying, if anything were to happen to you or Mawley, I will watch over your son as if he were my own."

Kento smiled and put his hand on Cin's shoulder, saying, "I know you will."

Soon afterwards, Kento and Mawley were tasked with a mission to go to the planet of Corellia to try to resolve a chaotic situation. Galen was crying and his mother soothed her son and sang him a lullaby; Galen slowly stopped crying as she sang and placed him in his crib. Galen fell asleep; Mawley kissed Galen on his forehead. Kento looked at Galen proudly. "Sleep well, my son," he said as he and Mawley left for Corellia.

A few days later, Kento and Mawley were still on their mission, meanwhile, in the temple, Drallig was asleep in his bed, as well as Galen, when suddenly Galen began to twist and turn, as did Cin. They saw Kento and Mawley patrolling the area for the trouble that was going on. Suddenly, a silhouetted figure came out of the shadows and activated a red lightsaber. Kento and Mawley got into a ready stance and faced him. Kento executed a spinning slash, but the figure dodged it. Mawley attempted to fight him off by using the force to throw objects at him but he defended against her attack; they began exchanging blows, as Cin and Galen saw it in their minds. Suddenly the figure blasted lightning out of his hands at Kento, stabbed him through the chest and kicked him off his blade. Mawley became horrified as he screamed in fear;; she then charged at the hooded figure. She tried to get a strike on him, but the hooded figure blocked all of her attacks and disarmed her. She began feeling an overwhelming sense of fear as the attacker raised his saber up over his head. As he brought it down, Cin and Galen heard the sound of the lightsaber striking and Mawley screaming in pain, then sensed her death.

Drallig awoke with horror in his eyes; he then heard Galen wailing in his crib. "Galen." He ran into the room and saw Galen crying. Drallig picked him up and comforted him in his arms. "It's alright, Galen, it's alright." He sensed that Kento and Mawley were killed. But who that person was that killed them, he didn't know.

The next day, the Jedi council debated on what to do with the child. Cin also participated in this debate. "This child must be raised by a Master with experience and wisdom," said Plo Koon.

"I will," Drallig announced.

The Jedi sat back, confused. "Why would you care for this infant?" Mace Windu asked.

"Because I made a promise to this child's father that I would look after him. I'll raise him to become a great Jedi Knight."

Yoda thought hard about Cin's comment. "Very well, the child will be taken under you, Drallig."

"Thank you, Master Yoda."

Afterwards, Cin entered into Galen's room and lifted him up from his crib. Galen looked up at Cin. "Galen, the council has put me in the position of caring for you. I'll teach you the ways of the Force; you'll be as great of a Jedi as your father and I will never let anything happen to you, that I promise."

For a few years, Galen knew many Jedi Masters and Knights. As a child he was gifted with the force and a lightsaber. He became friends with a cute little girl named Xena Baniko when he was around 5 years old. Xena was the same age as him. They trained together and played together and they shared a great bond with each other.

One night as Cin Drallig tucked Galen into bed, Galen asked Cin something. "Master?"

"Yes, Galen?" said Drallig,

"What was my father like?" asked Galen.

Cin hesitated for a moment because he missed Kento dearly; he took a deep breath and turned to Galen. "Your father was one of the most respected Jedi I ever knew. When we were Padawans, we were on a mission on Felucia to help a village in need. One day, when we were patrolling the area, an Acklay came out of nowhere and attacked us. It hit me and sent me flying into a corner. I was too injured to get up but then your father came rushing in and stabbed it through the back of his skull and it fell to the ground dead. Your father, he saved my life. I would never forget it and I had been friends with him ever since." Galen was so amazed by the story of his father that he became more motivated to be a great Jedi.

At age 8 he met Anakin Skywalker, who was prophesied to be the chosen one to bring balance to the force. He was a year older than Galen, but they grew to be best friends and developed a brotherly bond with each other.

When the day came for them to go off into the galaxy for years of training, Galen and Xena said goodbye to each other. "Bye Xena."

"Bye Galen."

She proceeded to kiss him on the cheek, Galen was stunned by it. Xena smiled and went off with her master, Zim Cicada, who was a good friend of his father.

For many years, Galen trained under Cin Drallig, honing his skills and learning to connect more to the Force. He developed his lightsaber skills more to the point where he was able to best his master in lightsaber combat. He also mastered hand to hand fighting, with a fluid and fast fighting style called Bakuuni Hand that was taught to him by Drallig which allowed Galen to use the force to enhance his punches and kicks . He also taught him the art of Teras Kasi which was a very fluid and fast fighting style.

10 years later on the planet Typhon, Cin Drallig, who was now much older and had a bit of gray in his long brown hair and wrinkles on his face, got a call from the council telling them to head to Coruscant. He then looked for Galen, "Galen, Galen?" He soon found him, practicing his lightsaber Kata. He smiled proudly as he watched him. Galen was around 18 years old now; his Padawan braid was down to his shoulder and his physique had grown to be lean and flexible. "Galen, we just got a call to head to Coruscant. There has been an attack and Senator Amidala almost died."

Galen was shocked. "Is she okay?"

"She's alright, she had protection from Obi Wan and Anakin." Galen started getting excited; he hadn't seen Anakin for so long. "Anakin is there? I can't wait to see him," Galen remarked.,

"Oh you will, and Xena will be there, too," Cin replied, Galen became more positive.

They traveled to Coruscant and landed at the Jedi Temple hanger bay.

Galen walked with his master, seeing all the Jedi walking past him; then his expression changed as he saw Obi Wan Kenobi. He had a beard and long hair and beside him he knew that it had to be Anakin. Anakin reacted the same. "Anakin?"

"Galen." Anakin replied

"Is it really?" Galen looked closely and he saw that it was him, his eyes widened and smiled "Anakin!" Said Galen as he hugged Anakin tight,

"Galen."

"Oh, it's been so long,look at you!" Said Galen happily, "I heard that you and Obi Wan were chasing some Assassin lady through the streets."

"Yes we did, so far all we know is that this assassin was working for a Bounty Hunter. I'm going to find more information regarding this toxic dart that was shot by the bounty hunter from a mile away and what killed her," Obi Wan elaborated. Galen got the information down.

Anakin and Galen caught up with each other and decided to spar for a bit.

Galen and Anakin walked into the middle of the sparring ring; they took off their robes and tossed them aside, activated their lightsabers and got into different ready stances. As Obi Wan and Cin watched from a distance, Obi Wan asked Drallig, "Who do you think is going to win?"

"Oh, I believe my Padawan will win," said Drallig, smiling. "He's practiced a lot more than yours."

Galen and Anakin ran towards each other and clashed blades. Anakin seemed to have the upper hand with his devastating attacks, but Galen managed to slip through them and swept underneath Anakin's legs and force pushed him back. He then brought his blade to his head and jumped towards Anakin but just as his blade was about to hit Anakin's neck he stopped it. Anakin was surprised. "Whoa Galen, that was crazy! How did you do that?"

"Lots of practice," replied Galen.

He reached his hand out to Anakin, who took Galen's hand and pulled him up to his feet. "Try to focus more on defense next time."

"Yeah. I'll remember that,"said Anakin as they both summoned their robes and put them back on. Anakin and Obi Wan left to go to talk to the Jedi Council on what to do with Padme.

During his time in the temple, Galen and Cin managed to run into Zim Cicada. His hair was gray and he had a beard. He noticed there was a girl walking right next to him but he didn't know who it was. "Drallig," said Zim happily.

"Cicada," Cin replied as they locked arms with each other.

"It has been too long, Drallig,"

"Too long indeed, old friend."

Zim looked over Cin's side and recognized Galen. "Galen is that you?"

"Yes, good to see you. Master Cicada," Galen grinned.

"Look at you, all grown up I see. You look so much like your father when he was your age," Zim remarked happily.

"Thanks."

The girl on his right was surprised. "Galen?"

Galen looked at the girl in confusion, "Yes, and who are you?"

"It's me Xena, Xena Baniko."

"Xena?" Galen looked closely at her; she was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. Xena's Padawan tunic had a tan color with a brown cloth on both of her shoulders down to her waist. She wore her hair partly in a bun and the rest went down her shoulders and she had her Padawan braid on her shoulder. He then smiled and got excited, realizing it really was her and hugged her. "Oh my gosh, it's so great to see you, Xena!"

"It's great to see you, too," Xena replied happily as she embraced him. "Wow, you've grown Galen!" Xena exclaimed.

"Yeah, I've done so much training since we last saw each other," Galen replied.

Xena smiled and asked, "I've grown a lot, too, don't you think?"

"Yes you have… grown more beautiful, I mean," replied Galen as he smiled. Xena was surprised then she smiled and blushed. Cin and Zim smiled at them. They knew Jedi can't form attachments but they respected their relationship and shared a knowing look. Afterwards, Galen and Xena were sent together to Tython to do some training.

On the planet Tython, Galen and Xena began catching up. Xena started to admire Galen's physique. "Wow Galen, you've really gotten stronger, haven't you?" asked Xena,

"Yeah, I work hard every day and I've gotten really good since the last time you saw me, when we were kids. Cin calls me his prodigy," said Galen. He then asked, "Do you remember when you kissed me on the cheek when we were kids?"

Xena smiled. "Yes, why do you ask?

"Because when you kissed me and left, I thought about you every day; Xena, my life just wasn't the same without you."

Xena was saddened for a bit. "Me too," Xena sighed. "I felt so alone without you Galen, it felt like you were gone for an eternity."

"Hey, it's okay," said Galen reassuringly.

Xena moved close to Galen and embraced him. "I really missed you."

"I missed you too," Galen replied.

He then looked at Xena. "You know, I remember how we used to always run around in the temple. Do you?"

"Yes,I remember outrunning you all the time. I bet you can't catch me now, either," smiled Xena.

"Oh, I'll bet on that!" Galen began chasing Xena across the grassy field. The two laughed together and Galen tackled on top of Xena and the two began laughing. They then looked into each other's eyes and felt a spark within them. They leaned close to each other and then they kissed each other on the lips and then they deepened the kiss. Xena opened her eyes and smiled. "What are we doing?"

"What our hearts have been telling us to do for a long, long time," said Galen as he lifted her up to her feet. "I love you, Xena, I have always loved you."

"But Galen, we can't. It's forbidden for Jedi to have romantic attachments," said Xena worriedly.

"Then we'll talk with the council about this. I'm sure my master will back us up."

Xena smiled. "Yeah, and I'm sure my master can, too." The two of them smiled and kissed once more as the wind breezed right through them and white petals blew right by them.

All of a sudden, they got a message from Mace Windu. "Galen," greeted Mace.

"Master Windu, what is it?" asked Galen.

"The Council needs you and Xena to meet with me and the other Jedi at Geonosis. Your friend Anakin is captured there as well as Master Kenobi and Senator Amidala. You two must meet us there immediately."

"We'll be there."

He turned off his holonet and turned to Xena. "Come on Xena, let's go." They went into their Jedi Fighters and took off toward Geonosis.

Galen and Xena fought in the Battle of Geonosis with the other Jedi. It was a tough fight in the arena; Galen, Xena and Anakin fought together side by side. As Galen was fighting, an armored foe with a jetpack who was dual wielding blasters began firing at Galen. Galen began running and then stood his ground as he deflected his blaster bolts until he deflected one of them back towards his jetpack. The armored assailant spiraled out of control and fell to the ground. Galen felt a sense of relief; suddenly, the Reek began charging at Galen. He began to run from the Reek then dodged out of the way. The Reek charged at Jango Fett and trampled him. The armored assailant got up and then noticed Mace charging towards him. The armored foe fired at Windu but Mace got the upperhand and beheaded the armored assailant. Galen witnessed it happen and was relieved that he was dead. Mace turned to Galen and gave him a nod of approval, Galen was honored and they kept on the fight. Eventually, they were cornered but then Yoda arrived with the clones. Galen and the other Jedi escaped the arena.

Afterward, he met with Anakin at the medical bay. As he saw Anakin lying there, he was shocked to see that his friend was missing his right arm. "Oh my god, Anakin!" exclaimed Galen, scared out of his mind. He turned to Obi Wan and asked, "What happened to him?"

"We tried to stop Dooku from escaping, but Anakin got reckless and Dooku cut off his arm. I tried my best to fight him, but he got the better of me. Luckily Master Yoda came in just in time to help us, but Dooku escaped," replied Obi Wan. Galen was saddened by what he had heard.

"Master, can you leave me and Galen alone for a moment?" Asked Anakin.

Obi Wan replied, "Of course." He then walked out of the room.

Anakin turned to Galen and said, "Galen, there's something I have to tell you."

"What is it, Anakin?" Galen replied.

Galen learned about Anakin and Padme's relationship and how they plan on getting married and he wants Galen and Xena to be there. He also told Galen that Anakin's mother Shimi was tortured to death by Sand People on Tatooine. Enraged over her death, Anakin slaughtered the whole village of them, including the women and children. Galen was horrified by what he just heard; Anakin made Galen promise not to tell the Jedi Council and he agreed.

Afterward, he asked Galen and Xena if they could attend their wedding and they said yes.

On Naboo, they smiled and watched as Anakin and Padme were married in secret.

At the Jedi Temple, Galen and Xena told the council of their relationship. "This is against the Jedi Code; we can't allow this to go on," said Agen Kolar, concerned, and some of the council members agreed. Galen and Xena got nervous.

"I believe that those two should stay together," said Ki-Adi Mundi, "For I was in love, too. I even have a family of my own and I was able to handle it."

"Did you really?" asked Galen hopefully.

"Yes," said Mundi and the other council members started to agree with him.

"Council members, if I may speak?" Cin requested as he walked into the room.

"Please, Master Drallig," said Yoda.

"I've trusted my Padawan since he was a child. Since you let me take him in when he was a baby. I believe he should have this relationship with her to feel the kind of love his father had for his mother. I believe love is what drives him to do good," said Cin.

"Yes, I agree with Drallig," agreed Zim. "My Padawan Xena always thinks of him and cares deeply for him; it is what drives her as well, and I trust these two can handle this."

"I agree," said Yoda. "You two are allowed to continue this relationship of yours and be prepared. Begun… the Clone War has."

"We will, Master, we will," said Galen as he held Xena's hand and the two smiled at each other.

For a long time, Galen fought through many battles throughout the Clone Wars. As the war grew, so too did Galen. Eventually, Galen became General of his Clone Army, known as the 300th Clone Legion; they wore red paint on their armor and their visors glowed red and also had red paint on their helmets vertically and leading them was a Clone Commander named Korso whom Galen shared a good friendship with.

He fought some of the most dangerous enemies of the Separatist army, such as Count Dooku, who he managed to corner, but not before suffering some slashes to his chest and arm by Dooku's saber; however, he escaped. He also fought against Asajj Ventress who was Dooku's assassin and managed to beat her in combat, but retreated when she was cornered by him.

One day he was told to go to the Jedi Temple. He had to complete one of the Jedi Trials known as the Trial of the Spirit.

Galen sat in a meditative state and when he opened his eyes he found himself in a dark void with rubble around him. Galen was shaken by it then a voice whispered, "Galen." Galen turned and saw a shadowy figure. The person walked out and it was revealed to be… himself, but he looked very rough. His hair was messy and really long, down past his shoulders. He wore rugged clothing and had a grizzled beard. His eyes were yellow like the Sith. He then took out his lightsaber and activated it but the blade was red. Galen activated his lightsaber and the two had a grueling fight. Galen was cornered until he remembered what his master told him: "Clear your mind, trust only in the Force, let it guide you." Galen got back up and fought back against his dark self and managed to stab him straight through the heart. He kicked his dark self back as he pulled out his lightsaber and watched as his dark self fell off the crumbling platform; he screamed as he fell and then exploded into pure energy. Galen had passed the trial. But then he heard in his head his dark self tell him in a demonic voice, "You can never escape me." Galen then opened his eyes and found himself back in the temple, his master looked at Galen proudly,

"Well done, Padawan, you passed the test."

Galen replied, "Master, I saw something in my vision. I don't know if it was the future or if it was an illusion, but it was me, only I was darker, more rough-looking."

His master reassured him, "Galen, it's not all set in stone. The future is always in motion, always shaping to be something else. Never forget that, Galen."

"I won't, thank you, master." Galen gave a nod and bowed to his master.

The War started to become worse when General Grievous entered and was able to take on many Jedi. The Council held a meeting on what to do. "We must do something about this General Grievous; five Jedi tried fighting him and they lost their lives. We need more Knights," said Kit Fisto frustrated.

"I agree. I believe it is time to promote Master Drallig's Padawan Galen Marek to Jedi Knight," Mace Windu declared. Some of the council members agreed,

"True, he is a cunning warrior and one of our best pilots," said the Jedi Master Eeth Koth. "He's a great leader when it comes to battles."

"Yes, strong Galen has become. Faced many trials he has," agreed Yoda.

"Yes indeed," Cin declared as he entered the chamber, "Galen has passed some of the trials. He passed the trial of skill when he fought against Asajj Ventress on Bakura, and he passed the Trial of Courage when he faced Count Dooku and defeated him in battle until Dooku retreated, and he passed the Trial of the Spirit when he faced his Dark Self in his vision and defeated him."

"Yes, strong Galen has become. Performed many feats he has. A Knight he shall be."

On Kashyyyk, Galen and Xena were helping a tribe of Wookies fight off against some Battle Droids and Droidekas. They managed to drive them away.

They sat around a fire having nicely prepared grilled meat. The Wookie thanked him for his help. "You're welcome, Wookie. What's your name, if I may ask?" Galen asked. The Wookie let out an introductory roar. "Chewbacca, huh? That's an interesting name; well, it was nice to help you out and nice meeting you, too," replied Galen. Suddenly, his holo projector started beeping, he answered and it was his master calling him. "Master Drallig, what is it?" asked Galen,

"You must come to the Jedi Temple. Meet me in the Council Chambers, it's important."

"Very well, master, I'll be there."

He then turned to Xena and said to her, "I gotta go, there's something that has just come up. I have to go to the Jedi Temple, it's something important."

"Good luck, Galen," Xena bid him farewell and kissed him on the lips.

Galen traveled to the Jedi Temple and entered into the Council Chamber, but it was pitch black. "Master? Are you here,Master?" Suddenly the whole chamber became bright as lightsabers were activated. At the same time Galen was confused but then smiled when he realized what this was, he was getting promoted to Jedi Knight; he looked at the Jedi circled around him with their hoods on and their lightsabers pointed upward. He saw that one of them was his master, smiling at Galen proudly.

"Step forward, Padawan." Galen turned and saw that it was Yoda standing on his chair. Galen stepped forward and got down on one knee while all the hooded Jedi pointed their Sabers downward Galen then looked up at Yoda. "Galen Marek, by the right of the council, by the Will of the Force, dubbed thee I do…Jedi," declared Yoda as he cut off Galen's Padawan braid with his lightsaber, "Knight of the Republic." Galen then stood up no longer as a Padawan, but as a fully fledged Jedi Knight. Cin then stepped out of the circle and took his hood off; Galen turned to face his master, Cin put his hand on Galen's shoulder and said to him, "Galen, when you were born, your father foresaw that you would become a great Jedi Knight. Your mother believed it, too, may they rest their souls. You've proven to me that you are everything he always knew you would be. He and your mother would be proud; I'm proud, and that is why I'm giving you the title…of Warrior Master." Galen was shocked when he heard this and, full of excitement, he embraced his master, who then embraced him back.

"Thank you, my master," said Galen happily,

"You're welcome, my old Padawan."

A year later, Anakin and his new Padawan Ahsoka Tano were on a mission on Geonosis preparing for a siege. "Do you think we can handle this, master?" asked Ahsoka.

"I'm sure we got this, Snips," said Anakin.

He then got a call on the holonet, it was Mace Windu. "Anakin, we're sending you back up in your siege against the Separatist army."

Anakin was confused. "What, who are you sending?"

"ANAKIN SKYWALKER!" hailed a voice proudly from a distance. Anakin saw a Republic Gunship landing in front of him and out of it the gunship stepped out…Galen Marek. Galen was nineteen years old now; he wore Clone trooper armor with some Jedi Robes over it. He had a medium long cape and his hair had grown down to his neck. Xena Baniko also stepped out and was wearing similar clothing as Galen, her hair was down to her shoulders and loose. At this time she was now a Jedi Knight. "You didn't think you were gonna start this party without us, did you?" said Galen confidently.

"Galen," said Anakin, as the two hugged each other.

"Master, who is this?" Ahsoka asked.

"Ahsoka, this is Galen Marek, Warrior Master of the Jedi Order," Anakin declared.

Galen shook Ahsoka's hand. "Ahsoka Tano, Anakin's told me a lot about you. He's also told me that some of him has rubbed off on you," said Galen, smiling.

"Has he now?" She looked at Xena. "Who is she?"

"Ahsoka, this is Xena Baniko, my love," said Galen as he introduced her to Ahsoka.

"Pleased to meet you," said Xena.

"Good to meet you, too," Ahsoka replied as they shook hands.

With introductions out of the way Galen got down to business. "What do we got?" he asked.

"We're about to head straight through that army full of Super Battle Droids and Droidekas. My clones, Ahsoka and I plan to take down that Droid Factory."

"We've got you covered. Me and my clones, the 300th clone Legion led by my Clone Commander Korso, will lead the charge to break through their lines, then you and your Padawan will be able to pass through and enter into the droid factory. Then, my Clones will provide some charges to blow it up sky high."

"Sounds like a plan," Anakin replied.

Galen turned to Korso, who was preparing for battle with his troops. "Korso, prepare the troops for battle."

"Yes sir, General Marek."

Moments later, the 501st and the 300th all stood together. Galen sat on a red speeder with a yellow stripe on it, while Xena stood on a purple speeder with a yellow stripe sitting right beside him. All of Galen's clones sat on speeder bikes holding lances while listening to Galen. Anakin and Ahsoka were standing by their clones while Galen spoke. "Listen up, we're here to make a difference to the Galaxy, to make it a safe one! These Separatists who think that they can just step on us and do whatever they want right? Well they are dead, wrong! Let no enemy bring you down, we are Krayt Dragons, we rise up and take down our enemies! They want to make us slaves but we won't let them! This day will be one step closer to ending this war, to stop the Separatist army and to turn the tide of this struggle! You, do not fight for the Separatists! You fight for the Republic, you fight for the Jedi Order!" Galen raised his saber up into the air. Anakin, Ahsoka, Xena and all the clones cheered over Galen's speech. Galen turned to face the droid army and yelled, "THE FORCE IS WITH US!" Galen, Xena and the 300th charged into battle, "LANCES DOWN!" ordered Galen, the troopers then brought their lances downward pointing towards the droids. Galen and Xena drove into battle side by side and activated their lightsabers. Galen pointed his saber to the droid army and yelled, "ADVANCE!" As they plowed straight through most of their ranks, Galen slashed his saber at them while mounted on his speeder. He saw a Tank coming up in front of him; Galen steered to the left, swung his saber straight through its side, and made a massive slice that toppled it over.

The Clones that were on the ground began firing at the droids with their gatling guns, assault plasma rifles and bazookas. Galen kept riding his speeder until a Droideka shot at it; Galen jumped off his speeder, executed a somersault and landed on his feet next to Xena. They stood together for a moment with a knowing smile towards one another, then they charged into a group of battle droids. Xena's Ataru fighting style was very fluid and acrobatic like water, while Galen had a fiery Djem So and Ataru mixed fighting style as they slashed through multiple Droids.

Suddenly, more droid reinforcements arrived. Galen then activated his wrist com and said, "PILOT, BRING THE RAIN!" Then his Republic Gunships that were painted with a Rancor and a Krayt Dragon on both sides flew in and shot missiles and lasers at the droids. Galen then said on his intercom, "ANAKIN, AHSOKA, NOW!"

Anakin turned to Rex. "REX, WE'RE MOVING IN!"

"TROOPERS ADVANCE!" yelled Rex to the clones as they all charged into battle to Galen's position.

The squadron fought on against the droid army. As Galen was slicing up droids with his lightsaber, he noticed more droids coming toward him; he then switched his grip on his lightsaber to a reverse grip and charged at the droids coming at him. With fluid grace and speed, he sliced them to bits. Anakin fought against some Droidekas and was starting to get outnumbered. Galen then jumped straight towards him. As he landed, he sent out a force shockwave to the ground, smashing the droids around him. Eventually, they managed to take down the droids. The 300th Clones were sent in to plant the explosive charges while shooting Geonosians trying to stop them. The charges were set, the clones evacuated, and they detonated and blew up the factory. Galen and the others stood victorious. Galen then got up on the rubble of the droids and Xena stood beside him. They turned towards Anakin and the others, Galen activated his saber. He looked at the hilt which had the Krayt Dragon rise up and above it was the sun and in the circle was the symbol of the Jedi Order he then raised his saber and let out a victory cry, Anakin and everyone cheered as they won the battle.

Afterwards there was a celebration where all the clones chanted Galen and Xena's name. "Let's hear it for the Warrior Master Galen Marek and Xena Baniko!" said Anakin, Rex, Ahsoka and the clones cheered.

"You're welcome, Anakin, it was great to fight alongside all of you," said Galen. "Let us take a picture of this great victory." He gave Korso his tablet camera and Anakin and Galen stood together while Xena stood on the other side of Galen and Ahsoka stood on the other side of Anakin and they all smiled for the camera. Korso took the photo and they loved looked at Galen and said, "Galen, that move that you did when you hold your lightsaber backwards for more fluid attacks, do you think you can teach me that?"

Galen smiled at Ahsoka and replied, "Anytime." Galen went on to teach Ahsoka the reverse lightsaber grip fighting style.

A year later, there was a bombing at the Jedi Temple. Ahsoka was held responsible for their deaths and was banished from the order. Eventually, the real culprit behind the bombing had been found; it was revealed to be Baris Offee.

Galen and Xena were at the Senate courtroom. Galen was twenty now and wore different clone trooper armor. Baris explained that the reason she did it was that she believed the Jedi had lost their way. Galen, however, never believed that; he felt that he was doing it for a noble cause.

Ahsoka was offered a place back into the Jedi Order and offered the rank of Jedi Knight, but refused and said she must go on her own path. Anakin tried to stop her but she walked away, then Galen tried to talk to her. "Ahsoka, please don't do this, we need you. Anakin needs you, me and Xena need you," Galen insisted, concerned.

"I'm sorry Galen, but I can't. I have to go on my own path without the Jedi's guidance."

"But, Ahsoka-"

"Please Galen, just let me go."

Galen understood. "Alright, farewell Ahsoka Tano. May the Force be with you." They embraced, then he watched as she walked away into the distance.

Another year had passed and the fighting raged on. Galen and Xena's relationship grew even more; they even had sex during their breaks from battle.

After a mission of helping some civilians on the planet of Nar Shada, Galen and Xena went to their barracks. Galen was now twenty one years old and was now wearing traditional tan Jedi clothing, Xena also wore the same kind of clothing. Galen and Xena entered their quarters, they smiled at each other and started kissing, they started taking off their clothes as they kept kissing deeper and began having sex.

Afterwards, Galen and Xena layed in bed with just the white sheets covering them,Xena was laying on Galen's side with her arm on his scarred chest "Oh, wow." Said Xena aroused,

"Yep." Replied Galen confidently as he laid on his back with his arms behind his head.

"Got to admit even with the bruises, you really know how to do it." Said Xena as she got on top of Galen and smiled at him, Galen then caressed his hands on Xena's face and said. "Yeah, I'm just that good." Xena smiled and the two kissed.

Suddenly, the door to their quarters opened and Commander Korso walked in on them; Xena covered herself with the sheets. "General Marek," said Korso, he looked beside Galen and saw Xena without her clothes on, then cleared his throat and awkwardly said. "General, Baniko." He felt uncomfortable, "You know what, I'll come back later."

"Hey, don't be shy." Replied Galen as he summoned his pants with the force and put them on Xena got up still covering herself with the bed sheets and walked to Korso. "What is it, Korso?" Xena asked,

"We're being called to Mandalore, to help General Kenobi and General Skywalker," replied Korso.

Galen was surprised; it was the homeworld of the Mandalorians. He then remembered it was also the place where Darth Maul, the presumed dead Sith Apprentice who had returned, had taken over the planet and also killed Obi Wan's old love Duchess Satine. He also remembered running into him one time with Obi Wan; he received a lightsaber slash through his abdomen and thigh, but Obi Wan saved him before Maul could kill him. "I guess it's time we help these people take back their world from that piece of shit who murdered Qui Gon. Korsso, prepare the troops to leave immediately to Mandalore."

"Yes sir, General Marek," said Korso. "There's something else, sir: Ahsoka Tano will also be helping with the siege."

Galen suddenly got excited. "Ahsoka? I haven't seen her for a year."

Xena perked up as well. "Yes, it would be so great to finally see her after so long!"

"Thank you, Korso," said Galen, dismissing the commander.

"You're welcome, sir," replied Korso as he left to prepare the troops.

Galen, Xena, Korso and the 300th Clone Legion finally made it to Mandalore. Galen and Xena were reunited with Anakin, Obi Wan and Ahsoka. "Xena, it's so great to see you," declared Ahsoka happily as she and Xena hugged. She then turned to Galen. "Hello, Galen."

"Hello Ahsoka, it's been far too long," said Galen warmly as they embraced. Galen thought of taking a picture together; he gave a clone his tablet camera which contained photos of some events in his life and during the Clone Wars. Galen stood right next to Anakin, Xena stood next to Galen, Ahsoka stood next to Anakin, and Obi Wan stood next to Ahsoka they all smiled at the camera as the clone took the picture and gave the tablet camera back to Galen. "Well that was fun. I should check the arsenal for the siege," said Obi Wan. Galen looked at Ahsoka, "Ahsoka, I'm ready to fight by your side, like the old days."

"Yes, we will," agreed Anakin.

Suddenly, the alarms started going off. Galen was confused. "What the hell, what's going on?" Obi Wan ran back into the room Galen and the others were in. Galen asked him, "Obi Wan, what is it, what's happened?"

"I just got a message, the capital of Coruscant is under attack by General Grievous."

Galen was shocked. "What about the Chancellor?" he asked.

"He's been taken hostage," Obi Wan replied.

Galen clenched his fists. "Ah shit."

Galen thought about what to do; should he stay and help Ahsoka and Bo Katan with the siege or return to Coruscant to help save Chancellor Palpatine? He closed his eyes and thought it through. He then turned to Obi Wan and Anakin and said, "I will go with you guys to Coruscant. Korso and I will help with the support."

"Me too," Xena chimed in.

Ahsoka was shocked by what Galen had said and became upset. "So that's it? You're just going to abandon Bo Katan and her people? What about what you just said to me?"

"That was before the Coruscant attack came up; the heart of the Republic is under attack and we need to assist them," replied Galen.

"So you're just going to keep playing politics then," said Ahsoka, disappointed.

Galen took a steadying breath and said, "It's not about politics or the Senate, it's about protecting my home and the vital things in the galaxy, and right now my home is under attack. I have to defend it." Ahsoka was disgusted by how Galen was acting and turned her head away from him. Galen then paused and sincerely said, "I'm sorry, I wish to help you and Bo Katan, believe me, I really do, but right now Coruscant needs me. I hope you can understand."

Ahsoka then looked at Galen and replied, "I understand, Galen." Anakin decided to have some of the 501st help Ahsoka with the siege; he also gave her back her old lightsabers, but now they were new and improved thanks to Anakin. As Anakin and Obi Wan said goodbye to Ahsoka and left, Galen put his hand on Ahsoka's shoulder and said, "Ahsoka, it was great seeing you. Good luck with the siege, help her people,"

Xena also hugged Ahsoka and told her, "Good luck."

"You too."

As she walked away to join Rex and the remaining 501st, Galen called out "Ahsoka!" Ahsoka turned, Galen smiled and said. "May the Force be with you."

"Goodbye, Galen. May the Force be with you," Ahsoka replied, smiling. Galen and Xena smiled back as they headed towards their flagship and jumped into hyperspace.

Galen and the others arrived above the planet of Coruscant where the battle was taking place. They flew into the battle in their Jedi fighters. "Master, General Grievous's ship is directly ahead, the one crawling with Vulture Droids," reported Anakin.

"Oh I see it. This is going to be easy," replied Obi Wan sarcastically.

"Don't worry Kenobi, Xena, Korso, and I got this," said Galen. They then opened their radiator wings for battle.

"This is where the fun begins," said Anakin, smiling.

"Indeed. LET'S ROCK IT!" Galen yelled.

Galen and the others flew into battle, blasting Vulture Droids that were right in front of them. Suddenly, a Vulture Droid fired heat seeking missiles at Galen's fighter. "GALEN, LOOK OUT!" yelled Xena.

Galen saw the missiles coming towards him. He thought fast, he then saw some Vulture Droids heading towards him. He came up with a cool trick that could work; he flew straight into the droids and spun his ship. As he was doing that, the missiles also spun in a circle and Galen flew right past the droids and the missiles hit the droids instead. Galen laughed. "Yeah. Anakin was right, spinning really is a good trick." Galen and the others kept on fighting. Anakin saw the struggle they were going through.

"I'm going to help them," Anakin stated.

Obi Wan told him, "No, they're doing their job now, we need to do ours."

Galen spoke on his headset to Anakin. "Don't worry about us, Anakin, we got this! You and Obi Wan go rescue the Chancellor, we'll cover you!"

"Alright, take some fighters out for me," replied Anakin.

Obi Wan and Anakin flew towards The Invisible Hand.

Galen, Xena and the 300th fought off the Vulture Droids and the Droid Tri-Fighters. Galen and Xena performed some impressive and complicated synchronized moves together. "Galen, the separatists are retreating!" Xena cheered.

"Yeah, that's how it's done!" Galen cheered. Then he saw something that made his blood run cold. "Wait a second," Galen cautioned, as he saw The Invisible Hand was still there. Suddenly, it began to plummet into Coruscant; the flagship broke into two and caught fire as it entered the atmosphere. Galen's eyes widened in horror, realizing Anakin, Obi Wan and Chancellor Palpatine were on that ship as it plummeted towards the planet. "Oh my god…"

After the battle, Galen and Xena were on Coruscant at the Senate building with Mace Windu. Galen had no idea whether or not Anakin and the others survived. Out of nowhere, a speeder bus flew in, and out of the carrier stepped Anakin, Obi Wan and Palpatine. Galen grinned and shouted, "ANAKIN!" as he ran toward him.

"Galen," said Anakin and opened his arms as Galen and Anakin hugged.

"I was beginning to worry, brother," Galen declared, relieved.

"Well, you know me, I always make it through," Anakin replied. "Chancellor Palpatine, are you alright?" asked Windu.

"Yes, thanks to your two Jedi Knights. They killed Count Dooku, but General Grievous has escaped once again," answered Palpatine.

As they continued their conversation about how the Senate would continue the war while Grievous lived.

Galen's mind was puzzled as they were walking through the halls of the Senate. Once they were separated a few feet behind the Jedi and the senators, Galen asked Anakin, "Anakin, why did you kill Dooku?"

"He was too dangerous to be kept alive," Anakin answered.

Galen was confused. "But you beat him, plus he was unarmed. We could've gotten some information out of him about who the Sith lord behind this war truly is," Galen stated, concerned,.

Anakin understood what Galen was saying and agreed. "You're right, I probably should've let him live." Suddenly, Anakin noticed Padme. "Excuse me," said Anakin but Galen stopped him.

"Hey, let us go talk to her too. It's fine we know about you two don't you remember?" said Galen, chuckling

"Yes, it would be so good to see her after so long," Xena chimed in.

They went over to where Padme was waiting out of sight by a line of pillars. Padme and Anakin embraced and kissed. She then turned to Galen and Xena and hugged them. "Hello Galen, hello Xena," said Padme happily.

"Hi Padme," said Galen.

"It's so good to see you again, senator," said Xena happily.

Padme turned to Anakin; she was trembling a bit. Anakin was confused. "Padme, what is it?" he asked.

"Something wonderful has happened, Ani: I'm pregnant."

Galen, Xena and Anakin were shocked. "Whoa, Anakin's going to be a father?" Galen exclaimed.

"That's wonderful," said Xena happily.

Padme looked at Galen and asked, "Galen, please promise me and Anakin you won't tell the Jedi. They mustn't know about this."

Galen thought hard; he then said, "Ok, I promise."

Xena then said to Galen, "Hey Galen, my master called me and wants me to meet him for old times sake. Gotta go."

"Ok, bye, Xena," Galen bid her farewell with a kiss. She then left Galen, Anakin and Padme.

Galen then turned to Anakin, "Hey Anakin, there's something I want to show you." He reached into his pouch and pulled out a ring; it was carved from a blue Kyber Crystal and had the Jedi Order symbol engraved into it.

At first Anakin was confused, but then he smiled as he put the pieces together. "Are you going to ask Xena to marry you?"

"Yes, I was planning on doing it as soon as this war is over," said Galen as he placed the ring back into his pouch. "Please don't tell Xena about it?"

"Don't worry, my lips are sealed," Anakin replied.

Galen returned to the Jedi Temple to give Anakin and Padme some time alone. As he walked the halls, he saw his old master Cin Drallig; his long, flowing hair which had once been brown was now more gray and his face was more old and wrinkled. Galen was so happy to see him and the two approached each other and hugged. "Galen, it's so good to see you."

"It's great to see you, too," said Galen happily. As they were strolling down the halls, Galen and Cin caught up on what they had been doing. Galen asked Cin, "So how's the security at the temple been?"

"It's been going very well," answered Cin. He looked at Galen and smiled. "Galen, you look so much like your father; he was strong, wise, courageous and always did the right thing. I also can't help but think about… when you were just a small boy being taught by me and I'm so proud of you. You've become a far greater Jedi than your father and I ever hoped you'd be."

Galen smiled and replied, "Thank you, Cin."

Drallig then asked Galen, "So, how are you and Xena doing?"

Galen responded, "We're doing good. Keep going through many battles together. Oh, and there's something I need to show you." He pulled out the ring from his pouch and showed it to Cin.

"Oh, it's beautiful. Do you plan on asking Xena to marry you?" Drallig asked, smiling.

"Yes, when this war is over."

"You know, Galen, your father Kento was the same way with your mother; they spent a long time together on many missions and soon they began to fall in love. And from that love, came you, Galen. The council heard about this and thought of expelling them; but Master Yoda saw something fascinating, if you were born you would be incredibly powerful with the force because both of your parents were force sensitives. He saw great potential that you would be a great help to the Order, so they allowed it. Nine months later, you were born. Your mother looked down at your face, she felt tears of joy, your father came to see you and her and I came to support him. She was the one who gave you your name."

Galen smiled but then it turned to sadness. "Yes, but I never got to really know them at all."

Cin responded, "Yes, they were killed on a mission in the Outer Rim. We never knew who did it. You were newly born when I volunteered to take you in and raise you, Galen, like you were my own."

"Yes, and I thank you for that Cin," Galen replied. The two smiled as they walked down the Jedi Hall.

The next day, Galen was at the Jedi Temple practicing his hand to hand fighting techniques. Suddenly, he saw Anakin walking through the halls. His face was a bit troubled. Galen walked to Anakin and asked. "Anakin, Anakin what's wrong?"

Anakin was hesitant at first about answering Galen but then he said to him, "I had a nightmare last night."

"What kind of nightmare?" Galen asked.

"Like the kind I had about my mother just before she died, but this one was about Padme."

Galen felt a chill. He then asked Anakin, "What happened in this vision that you saw about Padme?"

Anakin responded, "She died in childbirth."

Galen felt shaken by what he just heard from Anakin but then he thought that maybe it wasn't real. Remembering what his master told him about how the future is always in motion and always changing. He told Anakin in an effort to reassure him. "Anakin, it was just a nightmare. You don't know if it's true or not, you can't be certain."

"That's why I'm going to speak about these premonitions to Master Yoda," Anakin replied and left to see Yoda.

Moments afterwards, Galen was in the meditation room sitting down and meditating and strengthening his connection to the Force. He was floating in mid air with his eyes closed while orbs rotated around him. After several hours had passed, he opened his eyes, levitated back down and walked out to the Jedi halls. He saw Anakin and Obi Wan walking on by. "Obi Wan, Anakin," said Galen as he ran up to them.

Obi Wan smiled and said, "Ah Galen, good to see you."

Galen then looked at Anakin and saw he had an upset look on his face. "Anakin, what's wrong?"

Obi Wan replied, "He's upset because he didn't get the rank of Jedi Master, even though he's now on the council to represent Palpatine."

"It's total nonsense," said Anakin angrily. "It's never been done in the history of the Jedi. It's Insulting."

Galen replied, "Come on Anakin, you should be a bit more grateful you're even on the council."

Anakin scoffed at Galen. "Easy for you to say, you're one of the people that the council favors."

Galen felt insulted. "Favoritism has nothing to do with it. It's about wisdom, Anakin."

Anakin understood what he just told Galen was cruel, and Galen made a good point. "I'm sorry, Galen, you're right. I shouldn't have lashed out like that."

"That's okay, Anakin, we all make mistakes," Galen replied and the two of them smiled at each other. He then asked Obi Wan, "So where are you heading off to?"

"I'm off to Utapau to locate General Grievous and destroy him," Obi Wan answered.

"And I'm just going to see him off," said Anakin.

Galen started feeling hopeful; with Grievous gone, this war could be over. "That's great! Let me go with you," Galen insisted..

"No Galen, I have to do this alone."

"I understand, Obi Wan," Galen replied.

As Obi Wan and Anakin left, Galen went back into the meditation chambers and resumed meditating.

Some time later, as he was meditating, he sensed many Jedi killed by someone with a red lightsaber. He heard Anakin and Mace Windu's voices in his head as he was meditating. Suddenly, he heard Mace Windu scream in pain and the sound of lightning; he then felt Mace Windu die. Soon he heard Anakin say, "What have I done?"

Galen opened his eyes confused. "What the hell? What's going on?"

He then heard the roar of a gunship approaching. Galen looked and saw the Republic gunship at the window; he felt confused, then his eyes widened as the gunship fired missiles at the window, causing a massive explosion that flew Galen back into the wall and knocked him out.

Moments later, Galen slowly opened his eyes, his vision blurred. His Jedi Robes were torn but his tunic remained intact; he slowly got back up and started to recover. He ran into the hall when he began hearing commotion. As he went out of the meditation chamber, he saw Clone Troopers firing at the Jedi and gunning them down. Galen was horrified by what he was witnessing, then the Clones spotted Galen and began firing at him. Galen deflected their shots and sliced right through them. He then started getting worried for Cin and Xena, "MASTER?! XENA, MASTER?!" Galen yelled as he traveled across the hallway into the main hall. There he saw his master fighting a hooded figure with a lightsaber. "There's one lesson you've yet to learn: how to become one with the Force," Cin said to the hooded figure.

"I'm no longer the learner," the hooded figure responded and got into a fighting stance. "It's your turn now," he said as Cin and the hooded figure began fighting again.

Galen watched as his master exchanged blows with the figure. Suddenly, the hooded figure stunned Drallig by uppercutting him in the face as their sabers were locked, then stabbed his blade backwards into Cin's chest and protruded from his back. Galen's eyes widened in horror, as he saw the hooded figure stabbed his beloved master through the heart. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" screamed Galen as the figure pulled his saber out of Cin's chest. Cin fell on his knees then collapsed onto his back, dead.

Galen was stunned by witnessing his master's death. He felt a bolt of anger go through him and he charged straight at the hooded figure. As he locked his blade with his combatant's, Galen's eyes turned to horror as he saw that the hooded figure that killed his former master… was Anakin Skywalker.

Galen was gripped by shock and fear as he saw Anakin's face. His eyes were yellow and he wore a grim expression that he had never seen his friend wear before.

Galen jumped back and saw Anakin just glare at him. Galen couldn't believe it; he looked between Anakin and Cin's dead body in disbelief. "No, NOOOOO!" Galen screamed as he charged at Anakin and tried to hit him with his lightsaber, but Anakin just dodged Galen's strikes. Their sabers clashed against each other but Galen wasn't in his right mind. They then locked blades with each other. Galen tried to force Anakin back, but Anakin spun his saber and threw Galen's lightsaber out of his hand; he proceeded to stab Galen through the heart. Galen felt the lightsaber seared straight through his back; he began puking out blood from his mouth. He looked at Anakin and struggled to talk as he asked, "Why, why?"

"For Padme, and my child," Anakin answered as he pulled his lightsaber out of Galen's chest.

Galen fell to the floor on his back. He weakly looked up at Anakin. "Anakin, I trusted you. You betrayed us."

Anakin replied, "You're wrong Galen, the Jedi betrayed us, betrayed all of us." He then left Galen on the floor along with the other dead Jedi. Galen struggled to breathe, then felt his life fading away. Then, he closed his eyes and died.

Moments after Anakin had left the temple, Galen's eyes shockingly opened as he felt life in him again. He breathed heavily; he had no idea how he was alive. He then looked around and his eyes were filled with horror as he saw all the slain Jedi. "No," he whispered. He saw many Padawans and younglings dead. He looked in horror as he saw Zim's severed head lying on the floor next to his headless body. Galen looked to the distance and his eyes widened and tears began to stream from his eyes. It was Xena on the ground with a burned wound through her chest. "XENAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Galen screamed as he ran to her motionless body. He picked up Xena and laid her in his arms as he started feeling an unspeakable horror that she was dead. "Xena, Xena it's me, it's Galen, oh god please, please wake up," Galen begged.

Xena slowly opened her eyes. She looked at Galen as she softly said, "Galen?"

Galen started feeling relieved and said, "Xena, thank the force you're still alive." He then looked out to see if there were any Jedi healers. "HELLO, HEALERS! PLEASE HELP HER!" he yelled out.

"There is…no time for that, Galen," said Xena as she began coughing. "Galen, promise me that you'll survive and will never give up. You must survive. You'll have to be strong, for the Jedi, for Cin, for me."

Galen hesitated. "Xena, please just stay with me," he said worriedly.

"Galen, promise me." Xena insisted.

"I promise, Xena, please just hold on," answered Galen.

"I love you," Xena whispered as her eyes lost focus, and she died in his arms.

Galen was shocked and tried to wake her. "Xena, Xena?" But she didn't move. Tears began to stream down Galen's face as he realized she was gone. "No please, please," Galen sobbingly said. He placed his head on top of Xena's as he cradled her in his arms and cried over her body.

"Hey, there's one still alive! Blast him!" shouted a Clone, then many Clones prepared to open fire on Galen. Galen's head sat on Xena's head; suddenly, Galen lifted his head and his expression shifted from sadness into rage; as he realized that Anakin was the one responsible for all of this. He summoned both his and his master's lightsabers to him; he then stood and turned to face the clones pointing their blasters at him. Galen began angrily breathing heavily, his chest heaved in every breath, then his brown eyes slowly turned yellow. He then screamed and released a massive force repulse, which obliterated some of the clones. Galen then angrily charged at the Clones, slicing their heads off and stabbing them repeatedly in the face. He sliced them to pieces with his and his master's lightsaber and kept stabbing them even when they were dead and was like nothing but a spinning buzzsaw. As he was doing this, he saw flashes of his times with Anakin, Drallig and his times with Xena. The clones fired at Galen; he was hit by one of their shots, but somehow it didn't kill him. He then slaughtered the Clone that shot him. One Clone that was barely alive began firing at Galen with his blaster pistol, it hit Galen but it didn't phase him Galen then turned aggressively to the Clone and angrily glared at him with his yellow eyes. Galen slowly walked toward him as the clone kept firing at Galen, but he deflected the shots with his lightsaber with ease. Suddenly the clone's pistol ran out of ammo, Galen then grabbed him by the head and lifted him up off the ground with the force, he glared at him and gritted his teeth as he slowly started crushing his head. The clone screamed as Galen was crushing his helmet. The Clone fearfully asked, "What are you?"

Galen coldly responded, "Your worst nightmare," as he closed his hand into a fist and crushed the last Clone's head.

Galen then stood over the dead remains of countless clones and screamed with rage in his lungs. He walked past many fallen Jedi and clones until he reached Xena's body. He deactivated his and his master's sabers, dropped them on the floor and sank to his knees, tears falling down his face. His yellow eyes then turned back to brown. He stretched his hand to Xena's eyelids and closed them; he picked up her dead body and kept on crying, but he still felt so much rage he raised his head and angrily yelled, "NOOOOOOOOOO!"he then angrily said "Xena, I swear they will fucking pay for this. I will avenge you all." said Galen.

Moments later, Obi Wan and Yoda arrived, seeing all the Jedi dead. Galen leapt from above to strike, saw that it was Obi Wan and Yoda, and stopped. He deactivated his sabers away. Obi Wan asked Galen, "Galen, are you alright?"

Galen furiously glared at Obi Wan, then punched him in the face so hard that he fell to the floor. "DO I LOOK FUCKING ALRIGHT?! EVERYONE I KNOW AND LOVED IS DEAD AND IT'S ALL…YOUR…FUCKING…FAULT!"

"Galen, calm down, you must," said Yoda. "We must go into the Signal Beacon."

Galen took a minute to calm his mind. He then asked Yoda, "Yoda, I don't know how I'm still alive; I should be dead."

"The Force brought you back and made you immortal, I sense. Live forever you will, unless someone cuts off your head," Yoda explained.

Galen was shocked when Yoda told them this; but then he thought back to when he killed all the clones and how they all fired at him but he didn't die.

They entered into the Signal Beacon chamber and Obi Wan altered the signal to warn the remaining Jedi to stay away. "Master, there's something I must know," Obi Wan said to Yoda as he walked toward the Security recording holonet.

"If into the security recordings you go, only pain will you find," said Yoda.

"I must learn the truth, master."

Obi Wan activated the footage. In it he saw Anakin killing all the Jedi. "It can't be, it can't be," Obi Wan said in horror.

Galen was filled with anger as he saw this; he then saw himself getting killed by Anakin. After that, he saw Xena fighting against Anakin. She tried her best to fight him, but Anakin countered her attacks and stabbed her through the chest, then pulled his saber out of her chest and left her on the floor. Galen's eyes widened and his anger burned hotter than ever before. Galen then saw footage of Anakin kneeling to Palpatine, who was wearing a hood that failed to hide his wrinkled face. Galen became more enraged as he realized Palpatine was the one behind it all. "You have done well, my new apprentice. Now, Lord Vader, go and bring peace to the Empire," commanded Palpatine.

It was all too much to bear. Galen screamed in rage as he activated his lightsaber and stabbed and slashed at the holonet machine until it was completely destroyed, breathing angrily. "Destroy the Sith, we must," said Yoda.

"Send me to kill the Emperor. I will not kill Anakin," Obi Wan said, scared.

"Fine then, I'll do it. Consider it done," declared Galen coldly.

"Galen, how can you say that? He's like your brother, just like he is to me?" questioned Obi Wan.

Galen felt his temper flare again, "HE'S NOT MY BROTHER! I TRUSTED HIM AND HE KILLED THE WOMAN I LOVED AND THE CLOSEST THING TO A FATHER I EVER HAD! I WILL FIND HIM, AND I WILL FUCKING KILL HIM!" screamed Galen.

Yoda agreed with Galen. "Twisted by the Dark Side, young Skywalker has become. The boy you trained, gone he is, consumed by Darth Vader," said Yoda solemnly.

"I don't give a shit what he calls himself; he's still the piece of shit that took everything away from me and he'll pay for it with his life," Galen snarled.

Before they left the temple, Galen set up a funeral pyre for his master and Xena. Galen wore a new Jedi Robe and had his hood over his head. In his hand was a torch with blue flames. He looked down at Drallig's dead body. "Drallig, I promise you that I will survive, and I will never stop fighting," Galen declared and proceeded to burn his master's body with his lightsaber in his hand; Galen sadly told him, "Goodbye, my father Drallig." He then looked at Xena's body and kissed her pale lips. "Xena, no matter where I go, you will always be in my heart," Galen said tearfully. "Goodbye, my beloved Xena." After saying his farewells he burned Xena's body. Galen stared down at them as their bodies burned; he lowered his head and tears fell down his face and began weeping quietly; Obi Wan looked upon Galen and felt so very sorry for him and placed his hand on his shoulder. Yoda looked down in failure and regret. Soon, Galen's sad expression changed into anger; he lifted his head up and his eyes opened, filled with vengeance. He knocked Obi Wan's hand away from him and walked away. Obi Wan and Yoda followed him, as they went outside the temple gates, Galen looked back at the place he called home one last time before departing with Yoda and Obi Wan.

Galen headed toward Padme's apartment, to learn where Anakin was. Padme saw Galen walking in from the platform, but she noticed anger on his face. She asked him, "Galen, are you alright?"

Galen angrily grabbed her by the arm and yelled, "WHERE IS HE?!"

Padme was scared and confused. "Who?" Padme replied.

"Where is he, WHERE'S THAT PIECE OF SHIT HUSBAND OF YOURS?!" Galen demanded.

Galen's grip on Padme's arm tightened and began to hurt. "Galen, stop, you're hurting me!"

"IT'S NO MORE THAN WHAT YOU DESERVE!" He then released her arm.

Padme didn't see Xena with him. "Galen, where's Xena?

"Dead. Dead, BECAUSE OF YOU!"

Padme was stunned and confused as she said, "Me?"

Galen answered angrily, "That's right! He killed Xena, my master and all the Jedi, Padawans, and younglings that were at the temple. I had to watch Xena die in my arms!" Tears began streaming down Galen's face.

Padme was horrified. "No, Anakin would never."

"Well he did, because Palpatine was the one who told him to do it and I'm going to kill them for what they did to me, my master, and Xena."

Padme was shocked. "Galen, how could you want to kill him? You two have known each other since you were kids."

"I could've had a family with Xena, but that piece of shit took her from me. I was going to marry her, but your stupid husband took her from me because of you, and your damn child!" said Galen. He asked Padme "Now Padme, tell me: where is he?"

Padme deduced why Galen wanted to know where he was. "You're going to kill him, aren't you?"

Galen answered,"Yes, he's become a very great threat. He took everything from me and he will pay for it with his life." Although Padme looked Galen deeply in the eye, she refused to answer.

After a moment of silence, Galen began walking away to his ship. He paused to look back at Padme angrily and say, "Next time you come to make me a promise, don't, cause I'm not doing it anymore." He got into his ship and left.

Later that day, Galen located and snuck onto Padme's ship and they took off to Mustafar. If she wouldn't tell him, she would lead him to Anakin herself.

When they arrived, Padme tried talking with Anakin. However, Anakin wouldn't listen; he told her that he has become more powerful than the Chancellor, he could overthrow him and that together, he and Padme can rule the galaxy. Padme was shocked by what Anakin was talking about and realized that Galen was right; Anakin had changed. Anakin heard Padme talk about Galen and told her to stop and told her not to turn against him. She became saddened by what Anakin had become and told him that he was breaking her heart and that he was going down a path she couldn't follow. Then Anakin saw a hooded figure on the ship and began looking angrily at him. "Stop, stop now, come back, I love you," said Padme desperately.

"LIAR!" Anakin shouted.

Padme looked and saw Galen underneath the hood standing on the walkway. "No!"

"YOU'RE WITH HIM! YOU BROUGHT HIM HERE TO KILL ME!" Anakin shouted and began force choking Padme.

Galen was shocked to see Anakin choking her. "LET HER GO, ANAKIN! LET…HER…GO!"

Anakin released Padme; she fell to the floor, unconscious. Galen was shocked that Anakin would do something like this to her.

"YOU TURNED HER AGAINST ME?!" shouted Anakin to who he thought was Obi Wan.

"YOU'VE DONE THAT YOURSELF! YOU SADISTIC FUCK!" Galen roared.

Anakin was shocked to hear that familiar voice as he looked at the hooded figure. He removed his hood and it was Galen. "Galen? How is this possible? I killed you,"said Anakin.

"Yeah you did, and you also killed my master, AND THE ONLY WOMAN I EVER LOVED; AND NOW I'M GONNA MAKE YOU FUCKING PAY. I WILL SHOW YOU THE SAME MERCY YOU SHOWED XENA AND DRALLIG: NONE!" shouted Galen as he took off his Jedi Robe. "How could you do this? I trusted you, she trusted you, and you betrayed us all."

"Don't lecture me, Galen. I see through the lies of the Jedi. I do not fear the Dark Side as you do. I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security to my new Empire."

Galen started getting annoyed and angry by how delusional Anakin had become. "ENOUGH OF YOUR BULLSHIT!" Galen replied angrily.

"If you're not with me, then you're my enemy," declared Anakin, as he faced Galen, his eyes turned yellow and he activated his lightsaber.

"You already made me your enemy when you killed Xena, my master, and everyone I cared for," Galen said as he activated his saber, and got into an aggressive fighting stance. "I'll make you pay for what you've done, with your life."

Anakin responded coldly, "You will try, my old friend. And please, put up more of a fight than Xena did."

Galen furiously screamed as he charged toward Anakin. Anakin charged toward him as well; they began exchanging blows with each other. They clashed off the platform, over the walkway, and into the control room.

As they fought through the room, Galen noticed all the dead bodies of the Separatist leaders; Anakin must've come to Mustafar to kill them all by Palpatine's orders. They entered into the meeting room, Galen leapt on top of the table to dodge an attack from Anakin; they continued clashing blades with each other. Suddenly, Anakin grabbed Galen by the throat with his robotic arm and began choking him. He forced him to the ground while his other arm grasped Galen's saber hand and moved it towards Galen's neck as he pushed him more down to the floor. Galen started to get worried as he remembered Yoda telling him that he will die if his head gets cut off. Galen kicked Anakin off him, as he did, Anakin dropped his saber; while Galen got back up, Anakin drop-kicked him onto the table and Galen dropped his saber. Galen then got back up on his feet. Anakin got into a brawler fighting stance while Galen got into a martial arts one; Anakin charged at Galen, but Galen blocked Anakin's punch and followed it up with a flurry of punches to Anakin's face. Galen then performed quick punches to Anakin's stomach and face, then he kicked Anakin into the wall with a spinning hook kick. Taking advantage, Galen closed in on Anakin and began throwing rapid speed punches to Anakin's face and body while screaming angrily. "MURDERER! WE TRUSTED YOU! YOU BETRAYED US!"

Suddenly, Anakin caught one of Galen's punches, his eyes glowing yellow. Galen was shocked; he then yelped in pain as Anakin twisted his arm. He then coldly said to Galen, "You should've stayed dead, Marek." He then punched him in the face with tremendous force with his robotic arm, which sent Galen flying back onto the table with blood spraying from his lip. Anakin then summoned his lightsaber to finish Galen. However, before he could deal the killing blow, Galen summoned his lightsaber at the last second to stop Anakin's attack; he pushed Anakin back with his saber and used the Force to push his body back and the fight continued.

They made their way back into the control room, where they stood at the center of it exchanging blows. Soon, their blows became faster and faster until they were moving at lightspeed; then, they locked blades with each other. Galen and Anakin tried to Force Push each other but their powers were too strong. Galen focused his power, as did Anakin; Anakin grunted as he tried to push through, and Galen screamed in fury as he tried to push through Anakin's attack. They ended up getting flown on opposite sides of the room. Anakin tried to strike at Galen but he dodged his attack and Anakin hit the controls to the shields to the base instead, disabling the shielding on the buildings. Regardless, Galen kept fighting Anakin. Then, Galen got stunned by Anakin and was stabbed in the chest, but it didn't affect Galen, and Anakin was shocked. "What…what are you?" said Anakin.

Galen headbutted Anakin in the face. "Your angel of death," Galen declared and the two kept fighting. The two ended up on a pipe above the lava; Galen controlled his balance and got into a Makashi stance. Anakin tried to attack Galen but he blocked it with precision. He then jumped over Anakin and landed behind him. He attacked Anakin with precise strikes and knocked Anakin off the pipe and onto a platform down below. Galen jumped down to him and they exchanged blows. Galen then punched Anakin in the face, causing Anakin to stumble backwards. Galen glared angrily at Anakin. He let out a furious scream as he raised his saber over his head to kill Anakin, but he blocked it. They locked sabers as the lava erupted around them. They fought over the bridge until lava burst up onto the bridge, forcing them to run for cover. As they did, they clashed their sabers together and then hid behind cover. Soon, the support beams melted and the whole bridge collapsed onto the lava, but Galen and Anakin managed to hold on. They kept parrying each other's attacks but soon Galen saw that the lava river they were on was about to go over a cliff. Galen thought fast and noticed a loose cable; he grabbed onto it and started to swing.. Anakin got a loose cable as well and they swung towards each other. Galen yelled and struck at Anakin's attack and cut his cable, causing Anakin to fall. Galen saw a platform and jumped towards it. As Anakin fell, he used the Force to pull a cable to him. He then ran off the falling bridge and jumped onto a lava droid. Galen and Anakin stared each other down; Galen screamed and struck at Anakin and they continued exchanging blows.

Soon, they stopped to catch their breaths and angrily glared at one another, while their platforms hovered across the lava. "I can't believe you, Anakin! You killed me and everyone I loved and for what? To save some girl that you ended up killing?" said Galen.

"What would you know about loving someone?" asked Anakin. "BECAUSE I HAD THAT AND YOU TOOK HER FROM ME!" yelled Galen.

"I should've known the Jedi were plotting to take over!" Anakin exclaimed.

"Are you insane? Palpatine is evil!"

"FROM MY POINT OF VIEW, THE JEDI ARE EVIL!" declared Anakin.

"WELL THEN YOU'VE LOST YOUR FUCKING MIND!" Galen yelled.

They continued staring each other down. "This is the end for you my brother," said Anakin.

"You're not…my brother!" Galen yelled as he struck out at Anakin. Anakin jumped over Galen and landed on the platform he was kept fighting until eventually Galen leapt off the platform and onto a lava shore. "Come on Ani, come up here! Let's finish this!"

"You underestimate my power," said Anakin.

"THEN COME ON, DO IT COME ON! DO IIIT!"

Anakin glared at him and he leapt into the air. Galen leapt toward Anakin, screaming with rage, and sliced off Anakin's organic arm and his legs. He landed on the platform while Anakin tumbled down near the lava slope and was left with just his robotic arm. Galen jumped off the platform and glared at Anakin, he glared up at Galen. "YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE! IT WAS SAID THAT YOU WOULD DESTROY THE SITH NOT JOIN THEM, BRING BALANCE TO THE FORCE NOT LEAVE IT IN DARKNESS! I TRUSTED YOU AND YOU BETRAYED ME I LOOKED UP TO YOU, I STOOD BY YOU, AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME?!" yelled Galen."

"I HATE YOU!" screamed Anakin.

Galen raised his lightsaber to cut off Anakin's head; pausing, he looked at the lava and realized that cutting Anakin's head off wouldn't be a fitting end. He deactivated his saber and leered at Anakin. "You know what Ani? Why don't you burn in hell," said Galen coldly as he used the force to put some of the lava on Anakin's stump legs and set him on fire. Anakin screamed as he was engulfed in flames; Galen kept watching as Anakin burned. "Goodbye, Anakin. I hope you burn in hell," said Galen as he walked away, leaving Anakin to burn. As he did, he picked up Anakin's lightsaber. Galen left Mustafar with R2, 3PO and Padme on board.

They traveled to Polis Massa where Yoda and Obi Wan were hiding. Galen brought Padme to the medical bay. The medical droid told them that Padme was dying because, without Anakin, she just lost the will to live. "Hmph, what a fucking dumbass. He sacrificed everything, even the things I loved, just to save her, only to have her still end up dead," Galen said angrily. Bail Organa and Obi Wan were shocked by what he said. Galen looked at them resentfully. "What are you looking at? You know damn well it's true. I could've had a family with Xena, but that dumbass took her from me," Galen added, but Obi Wan and Bail didn't say a word. Galen witnessed the birth of Luke and Leia; but all he saw was nothing but the children of the man who he trusted with his life who ended up betraying and killing him and everyone he loved. "Galen, take the baby," said Obi Wan as he offered him Luke,

"Keep that fucking little monster away from me!" Galen snarled..

Padme looked at Obi Wan. "Obi Wan… there's good in him, I know… I know there's still…" Padme then died. Obi Wan and Yoda were shocked and saddened by her death, but Galen became enraged, threw a chair against the glass window and stormed out of the room in anger.

Afterwards, Yoda told Galen and Obi Wan they must go into hiding. Obi Wan would take Luke to Tatooine to Anakin's step brother Owen and his wife Beru. "No," said Galen.

"What?" asked Yoda.

"I won't go hide in some shithole of a town in shame like a coward. Xena made me promise to not give up and to fight against Palpatine and the Empire." He tossed Anakin's saber onto the table. "Do whatever you want with that, it means nothing to me."

Yoda sighed. "Very well, if that is your wish.".

"Goodbye Yoda, Goodbye Obi Wan," said Galen as he went off into the galaxy, immortal, ageless and alone.

On the planet Nar Shada, Galen was out in a bar getting a drink and trying to find an Imperial Base; he looked on the TV where a black armored figure was making a speech on the screen. Galen ignored it, but then he felt a familiar presence on the screen. He looked into the armored figure with the Force and he was shocked. "Anakin," Galen murmured in disbelief. He then angrily grabbed a stool, "NOOOOOOO!" He angrily screamed as he threw it at the screen and destroyed it. Filled with rage, he ran from the crowd. "I should've cut his fucking head off!" screamed Galen in his mind. "But I swear, I will hunt you down and kill you," declared Galen.

Later, at an Imperial Base, Stormtroopers were patrolling the area. Suddenly, Galen came up to the gates dressed in his Jedi robe with his hood covering his face. A stormtrooper spotted him and walked on top of the gates, pointing his blaster at him, "Hey, this is a restricted area, beat it." Galen didn't budge. "I said beat it!" Galen lifted his head up and activated his saber. The stormtrooper became shocked. "It's a Jedi, OPEN FIRE!"

Galen screamed in anger as he let out a huge Force Repulse that destroyed the gates and sent the troopers flying backwards. He entered the base and deflected some of the shots the stormtroopers fired at him with ease while he was hit by others, but he pushed through the pain and proceeded to slaughter them all with his lightsaber and showed no mercy or remorse to them; however, he left one stormtrooper alive so he can let Galen's enemies know that he was not dead, He then you used a massive Force Shockwave to destroy their barracks; afterwards, he carved the Jedi Order's symbol on the wall with his lightsaber and wrote "I am not dead." He then left the area in his Jedi Starfighter.

Hours later, Grand Moff Tarkin, one of the leaders of the Empire, and a band of Stormtroopers came upon the scene and saw what had happened. One traumatized Stormtrooper that had survived told Tarkin what had happened. "So you're telling me, that one Jedi, did all of this?"

"Yes sir, he was so fast we couldn't get a hit on him, and when we did he didn't die, sir he was like…a ghost, like he was an immortal Jedi."

"A ghost you say? Well then, we'll see what this…Immortal Jedi has in store for us. He'll soon be killed like all the others." He looked at the writing and noticed Galen's initials carved in as well. Tarkin glared at the writing, "Soon."

Galen's reputation began to spread as he decimated other imperial bases across the galaxy and tried to hunt down Darth Vader. Some called him the Ghost of the Jedi Order: one moment he was there, the next he was gone. But others came to know him as…The Immortal Jedi. For a long time, he was haunted by nightmares of the night when Anakin killed everything and everyone he had ever loved.

5 years later, Galen was out hunting Vader when he ran into a former Jedi. "Galen Marek?" said the Rogue Jedi.

"How do you know my name?"

"You're the Immortal Jedi, everyone knows who you are. I am Cere Junda, a former Jedi Knight of the Order."

"Hah, never seen you before," said Galen.

"Yes, but I would like your help with something," said Cere.

Galen started to become annoyed. "Leave me alone, I'm looking for someone," said Galen as he began to walk away.

"How would you like to help me rebuild the Jedi Order, Warrior Master?" asked Cere.

Galen stopped as he heard her say it and began feeling anger just by thinking about what happened to the Jedi; he scowled at her. "You listen to me, alright? The Jedi are dead. I watched as hundreds of Clones and my friend who I practically saw as my brother, Anakin Skywalker, showed up and slaughtered and butchered everything and everyone I ever had and loved. There's nothing for me now, but war and vengeance."

Cere became shocked. "Anakin Skywalker, he led the attack?"

"Yes, I tried to kill him, and I thought I did when I set him on fire and left him to burn on Mustafar. But he survived, and he's now that black armored figure with the mask, the one you and the whole galaxy know…Darth Vader," Galen said.

"What? This is impossible."

"It is, now leave me alone; I got a sith to kill," said Galen.

"There is a way we can rebuild the Order, Marek. There is a holocron left by my Master, Eno Cordova, that contains a list of Force Sensitive Children. If we can find them, they could be the next generation of Jedi,``Cere explained. Galen began thinking about it; he could help find new Jedi so they could build a resistance, and stand a chance against the Empire.

He turned to Cere, "I'm listening," said Galen.

"If you help me, I'll help you find some imperials that know where Vader is," said Cere. She reached out her hand and Galen took it.

"It's a deal," said Galen.

"Good, now all we need is to find a certain Padawan," said Cere. "Another survivor? What's his name?" asked Galen.

"Cal Kestis," said Cere.

Galen, Cere and her pilot friend Greez Dritus arrived on the planet Bracca to rescue Cal Kestis.He was being attacked by the Inquisitors, people who were once Jedi but turned to the dark side by torture from the Empire who now worked for them. Galen came out of the ship and saved him. As they escaped, Cal was scared about what had just happened. He felt like he was going to die. Galen turned to Cal. "Hello Cal Kestis, my name is Galen, Galen Marek."

Cal was shocked at the man; he recognized his face, he heard stories about him since he was a kid. "Galen Marek? The Warrior Master of the Jedi Order? I thought you were dead," said Cal happily as he shook Galen's hand and Galen smiled.

"I was dead, but the force brought me back and made me immortal. I've been this way for 5 years, kid," said Galen.

"So that's why you look the same as I remember you," said Cal. Cere told them that to get to the vault on the planet Bogano, it required two Jedi to open it. Galen helped Cal look for the key to get the Jedi Holocron that contained the list of Force Sensitive children. They went through many trials and Galen and Cal went through many battles, including one with the Rebel Alliance who planned on taking down the Empire; they helped a group of Rebels on the Wookie planet of Kasshyk led by an old friend from the Clone Wars named Saw Gerera. They eventually freed the Wookies with the help of Galen's tactical knowledge from the Clone Wars. Saw offered Galen a place at their side, but Galen refused, telling him that he was helping Cal rebuild the Jedi Order. On their journey, they fought many duels with the Sith Inquisitors like the Ninth Sister and the Second Sister who was revealed to be Cere's Padawan, Trilla Suduri. Galen also learned about Cal's past and what happened to him on the day of Order 66. Eventually, Galen and Cal got into the vault and retrieved the Holocron, but Trilla took it from them and escaped to the Fortress Inquisitorius, which was located on the planet of Nur.

As they traveled to the planet, Cere gave Cal the rank of Jedi Knight. Galen and Cal snuck into the fortress through an opening underwater while Cere got in another way. Cal, Galen and Cere squared off against Stormtroopers and Purge Troopers. Galen was having a tough time against the Purge Troopers. "Cal, go, get the holocron! I'll catch up with you!"

"You got it."

Cal managed to get into the torture room to confront Trilla. He fought against her and got the upperhand. She fell on her knees in defeat. Cere apologized to her former padawan for failing her. Suddenly…Darth Vader appeared above them. He struck Trilla down for failing him. Cere tried to fight him, but Vader Force repelled her into a pit. Cal tried to fight against Vader, but he held Cal in place with the Force and began choking him. Struggling for air, Cal began to feel helpless and afraid he was going to die; Vader felt a familiar presence and turned his attention away from Cal. Cal peeked over at what caught Vader's attention and saw that it was Galen standing behind them. "Galen," Cal choked out happily. Vader tossed Cal aside.

Galen glowered at Vader and, beneath his mask, Vader was shocked to see Galen still looking the same as he did years ago.

The two old enemies stared each other down. "Yes, Anakin Skywalker, I know who you are. We met many years ago, in the home of me and my master, Cin Drallig," said Galen.

"Anakin Skywalker?" Cal thought as he looked at Vader, horrified that the black-clad figure was one of the heroes from the Clone Wars.

Vader leered angrily at Galen, remembering when he burned him on Mustafar and left him for dead. "You…Now I will finish what we started 5 years ago," declared Vader. As he lunged towards Galen with his lightsaber, Galen activated his saber and the two locked blades.

"CAL, RUN!" screamed Galen. Cal and BD-01 took off running for the exit.

Galen glared angrily at Vader. "You're gonna die…for what you did to her." Galen fought Vader and managed to throw many strikes at him. Eventually, Vader stopped Galen with the Force as he was planning to deal a killing strike. The Sith slammed his foe's body into a metal wall, which made his face bloody, then threw him through more of them. This should've killed him, but of course he was immortal, and was badly injured instead of being killed. Cal found him and managed to put his arm over his shoulder.

As they tried to escape the underwater inquisitor base, Vader managed to catch up with them; Galen laid motionless on the ground, too injured to fight, but then Cere appeared and tried fighting Vader, but Vader got the upper hand. Cere tried to use a bit of the dark side to stop him, but Cal told her that it wasn't the way so she stopped using it. Vader tried to strike her down, but Cere threw up a Force shield at the last second. Galen saw what was happening; he looked at the glass window. With what little strength he had left, he used the Force to shatter the glass and let the water flood in. The three managed to escape thanks to help from the Night Sister Merrin, but Galen knew that underneath that helmet was the man who killed his master and made Galen immortal, and who was once his childhood friend who he thought of as his brother.

Galen and the others thought of using the Holocron to find the children. But Cal decided not to use it, saying their destiny should be trusted to the Force and sliced the Holocron in half. Galen stood in shock at what Cal just did, then became full of rage, "CAL, WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE!?" Galen demanded, enraged. He and Cal got into a fist fight. "I saved the Jedi Galen, I saw a vision that if we find them the Empire will just keep hunting us," said Cal. Galen tackled Cal into the wall of the ship and they both continued throwing punches at each other. "WHY DID YOU DESTROY IT?! THAT WAS OUR ONE CHANCE TO SAVE THEM!" yelled Galen.

"BECAUSE IT'S THE WISE CHOICE!" said Cal.

"NO, IT ISN'T!" Galen then jabbed his thumb into Cal's lightsaber wound that he got from Vader on his shoulder; Cal screamed in pain. "WHY CAN'T YOU RETARDS SEE HOW MUCH DANGER THEY'RE IN!? Galen yelled.

"DESTROYING THE HOLOCRON WILL PROTECT THEM!" Cal asserted as he threw Galen onto the table.

"ANAKIN WILL KILL THEM, JUST LIKE HE DID AT THE TEMPLE!" Galen yelled as he pinned Cal to the wall.

"YOU"RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO CARES ABOUT THE JEDI'S SURVIVAL!" He punched Galen in the face.

"ALL YOU GIVE A SHIT ABOUT, IS YOUR OWN FUCKING SURVIVAL!" Galen grabbed Cal and punched him in the face.

"BECAUSE…IT'S…THE RIGHT THING TO DO!" Cal yelled as he flipped Galen on top of the shelf full of plants that they got from other worlds.

Merrin and Cere broke up the fight. "Stop it, both of you!" yelled Merrin.

"Yeah, stop wrecking my ship!" Greez shouted angrily.

Galen looked at them all with disappointment. "You know something? I almost died getting this fucking Holocron, and for what, so you can not use it and destroy it?!" screamed Galen. "You know what? Fuck this, I'm joining the Rebel Alliance. I'm gonna go and actually make a real difference, unlike you people." The others were offended by what he said. They traveled to Kashyyyk to where the Rebels were last spotted. Before he left, Galen looked at Cal. "You made the wrong choice, Kestis," said Galen.

"Goodbye, Galen," said Cal. He wished him luck, and he and the others left for an unknown destination.

Galen was taken to a ship where Saw was looking for any news on the Empire. "Hello Saw," Galen said.

"Galen, are you here to join us and our cause?" Saw asked.

"Yes, I am."

"Good, because there's someone who would like to see you."

As Galen entered the ship, he was shocked to see a familiar face; it was his old friend's Padawan, Ahsoka Tano. "Hello, Galen," said Ahsoka, surprised.

"Ahsoka?" Galen and Ahsoka hugged.

Ahsoka noticed Xena wasn't with him. "Galen, where's Xena?"

"Dead."

Ahsoka felt shocked when she heard it and began feeling very sad for Galen. "I'm sorry."

"It's fine, those fuckers are going to pay for what they've done. It's so good to see you, Ahsoka. I've just spent so long fighting and just couldn't find the right people,"said Galen.

"Well now you've found it. Galen, will you help us?" asked Ahsoka.

"I will," declared Galen.

5 years later, Galen was out serving the Rebellion. One day, he had a call from Bail Organa to tell him to come to Alderan.

When he arrived on the planet, Bail told him why he had summoned him here, "Galen my daughter Leia, she was taken. I need you to save her."

Galen then flashed back to when her and Luke were born, and when her father Anakin killed Galen, Cin and Xena and every Jedi on Coruscant; he began feeling angry, "No, she's not my problem."

Bail began feeling upset and desperate, "Galen she's my daughter you must-"

"SHE'S NOT YOUR DAUGHTER, AND YOU SURE AS HELL AIN'T HER FATHER!" Galen snapped. "She is nothing but a bastard child of a man who stole everything from me!"

Bail was shocked by what Galen had said, "Galen, please-"

"NO, now leave me alone." Galen got into his Jedi fighter and left.

A few days later, Galen heard from Bail that Obi Wan had rescued his daughter. Galen was surprised, but didn't care about him, because from his point of view, he abandoned the galaxy to watch over one of the children of a murderer and a traitor.

Galen served in the Rebel Alliance for many years with Ahsoka Tano. He wore Jedi-like armor in many battles; eventually, he met Kannan Jarrus and Phoenix Squadron. Kannan became very excited by the sight of Galen. "Oh man, you're Galen Marek, Warrior Master of the Jedi Order. I watched all of your battles and missions. It was so inspiring to me!"

"Really? Well, thank you."

Galen went on to have a couple of missions with Phoenix Squadron.

When they ran into Vader during a battle, Ahsoka sensed that Darth Vader was Anakin Skywalker. After they got back to the base, Ahsoka wanted to talk with Galen, alone.

As they entered a secluded room, she said to Galen, "Galen, I sensed that black-armored figure with the mask… I sensed it was Anakin."

"I know," said Galen.

Ahsoka was shocked. "You knew? Why didn't you tell me?"

Galen became annoyed. "Well what did you want me to say? 'Hey Ahsoka, did you know your former master's a murderer who slaughtered all the Jedi and everyone I ever knew and loved?'"

Ahsoka became more understanding, but then she remembered that day on Mandalore when she was facing Darth Maul. "Maul told me something about this but I didn't think it was true. I wanted to tell Yoda, but I couldn't," said Ahsoka.

All of the sudden, Galen's eyes widened realizing that he lost everything including the woman he loved because of Ahsoka not telling Yoda about what was happening with Anakin."You… you knew?" said Galen, frozen still.

Ahsoka embraced Galen to comfort him. "I'm sorry." Out of nowhere, he grabbed Ahsoka's neck with one arm and lifted her off the ground. Ahsoka was shocked at what Galen was doing; Galen lifted his head up and she saw in horror that his expression turned to anger and his eyes turned yellow just like Maul's. "You knew," Galen said angrily.

Ahsoka tried to speak, "Galen…I-"

"DO YOU HAVE ANY FUCKING IDEA WHAT I HAD LOST BECAUSE OF YOU NOT TELLING YODA? MY MASTER AND THE WOMAN I LOVED AND WHO I WAS GOING TO MARRY, THEY WERE ALL MURDERED BECAUSE OF YOU! I WATCHED XENA DIE IN MY ARMS BECAUSE OF YOU!" screamed Galen angrily.

"(ack) I didn't know if Maul said (ack) was true or not?" choked Ahsoka.

"WELL IT DID AND I LOST MY MASTER AND XENA, THE TWO PEOPLE I LOVED THE MOST! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL HIM?!" Tears began coming out of his eyes. Ahsoka's eyes began to roll back as she was about to lose consciousness. Galen realized what he was doing and then angrily threw her across the room.

Ahsoka coughed and caught her breath as Galen fell on his knees, screamed in anger, slammed his fist to the metal floor and started crying. As he lifted his head up to look at her, his eyes turned back to brown. "You let this happen to me.."

"I'm sorry."

"You left me and everyone to die at the hands of your own damn master, and Sidious!"

"It's not too late, we can still fix this…together."

Galen embraced Ahsoka as he tearfully said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"I know," said Ahsoka.

Later on afterwards, Galen, Ahsoka, Ezra and Kanan traveled to the planet of Malachor, a Sith planet, to seek knowledge of how to take down the Empire.

They soon discovered a cavern which housed a Sith Temple. Right by it was an ancient battlefield between the Jedi and the Sith long ago. Galen felt this familiarity before with all the battles he fought throughout the Clone Wars. Later, they were attacked by one of the Inquisitors known as the Eighth Brother, who was hunting for someone calling himself "The Old Master." Ezra ran into a hermit who revealed himself to be the former Sith, Darth Maul. The inquisitors alerted Vader of their whereabouts.

As Galen and the others fought the inquisitors, Ezra brought Maul to the group; as Maul approached them, Galen's eyes widened in shock and horror because he knew who Maul was even before the Clone Wars. "Maul? MAUL!" Galen yelled as he pointed his saber at the newcomer..

The inquisitors were shocked to see him. Ezra tried to convince Galen and the others that Maul was helping them, "It's okay he's on our side."

"Our side? He's a sith! He murdered the Jedi Master Qui Gon Jinn, killed Duchess Satine Wren, and took over Mandalore; I've known this piece of shit for years, he can't be trusted!"

"Perhaps my actions will speak louder than words," said Maul as he activated his saber and attacked the inquisitors; Galen and the others helped him. Eventually, they forced the Inquisitors to retreat.

Afterwards, Galen grabbed Maul and pinned him against the wall. Galen activated his saber and placed the blade to Maul's neck. "Give me one good fucking reason why I shouldn't cut your head off."

"Galen, it's been a long time since the last time I saw you and yet, you haven't aged a day."

"Shut up, I know who you are…murderer."

"And I know you…Ghost of the Jedi Order, or as some call you…The Immortal Jedi."

"What?"

"That's right, I know your reputation. I've seen it through the Force, I felt it all."

Ezra started getting concerned. "Galen, stop, he's here to help. He helped us fight back those inquisitors."

Galen hesitated at first; he then released Maul. "You cross outta line or try anything, I will take your head."

"Take my head? Hm, that doesn't sound like how a Jedi should act," said Maul.

"I'm my own Jedi," Galen replied.

Maul led Galen and the others to the temple, and as they reached it, they were attacked by the Inquisitors. Maul told Ezra to go to the top of the temple and placed the Sith Holocron they retrieved into the center. Ezra ran up the stairs while the others fought on. The Seventh Sister gave Galen a hard time as they exchanged blows. Suddenly, the Seventh Sister stabbed Galen in the chest. She smiled, believing she had won, but Galen raised his head angrily and sliced her lightsaber in half, then stabbed her through the chest. She fell on her knees and looked up as Galen raised his Saber and beheaded her without mercy. Ahsoka was shocked to see Galen get stabbed but survive.

Maul noticed it, too. "He really is immortal," Maul thought..

Galen and the others realized Ezra wasn't here. "Maul, where's Ezra?" Kanan asked.

"You mean…my apprentice?" said Maul as he attempted to strike Kanan in the eyes to blind him.

But Galen caught Maul's blade at the last second with his saber. "Don't, you fucking try," Galen snarled as he pushed Maul back so hard that the Zabrak hit the wall.

Suddenly, the temple began glowing and a huge beam shot up into the sky. "You're too late, Marek. This Temple, actually this battle station, has been activated. Ezra will be my new apprentice and I will use this machine's power to destroy my enemies," Maul declared.

Galen glared at Maul. "Not if I can help it." He turned to Kanan and Ahsoka. "Kanan, Ahsoka, go get Ezra. I got a score to settle with this asshole."

"You got it," Kanan replied as he and Ahsoka ran up to the top of the temple.

Galen and Maul began circling each other. "I don't give a shit who thinks I'm right, but I've got cause enough for killing you," Galen said angrily as he glared at Maul; his eyes then turned yellow.

"Really? Well good, yes, I like that. Finally letting loose, are you? Better than the last time we fought though; back then, you had Kenobi helping you fight me and my brother, don't you think? The gift of immortality that you possess, it is glorious, isn't it?"

"No, it's hell."

"Hell? Well, you won't be feeling that way once I take your head." Maul activated his saber and got into an aggressive stance.

"Not if I take yours first." Galen got into an aggressive stance.

They stared each other down, then charged straight at each other, exchanging blow after blow. They both got into a saber lock and glared at each other furiously. "I'm going to make you pay for what you did to Qui Gon, you piece of shit!" yelled Galen. He pushed Maul back and began executing some Ataru attacks. Maul became overwhelmed by his quick attacks; Galen sliced Maul's double staff lightsaber in half and side kicked him in the face so hard it knocked Maul to the ground.

Maul became amused by how Galen was fighting, "Yes, now we got us a real fight." He took his lightsaber and the two fought it out. Galen and Maul deflected each other's attack; Galen then Force pushed Maul back. They glared at each other and got into a ready stance by raising the sabers to the side of their heads. They charged straight at each other, raised their sabers and angrily yelled as they swung at each other's neck. At first it seemed like both of them were not damaged. Maul turned and smiled at Galen. But Galen just angrily glared. "I told you…I would take your head." Suddenly Maul felt uneasy and was shocked to realize that Galen had cut through his neck; he fell on his knees and his head fell off his shoulders and rolled towards Galen. Galen angrily looked down at Maul's severed head and hurled his saber into it to make sure he was dead. He force pulled the saber to him. "Walk away from that, you son of a bitch." Galen spat on Maul's head; his eyes changed back to normal as he turned to the top of the temple, knowing Ahsoka and the others needed help.

Ezra and Kanan were trying to get the Sith Holocron out; with all their strength they managed to get it out. Vader arrived and fought them. He got the upperhand against Ezra by destroying his lightsaber; Kanan tried to fight him but got overwhelmed and backed into a corner. As Vader raised his saber to deal the finishing blow to Ezra, he heard Galen shout, "TRAITOR!"

He turned around and saw that it was Galen and Ahsoka standing together. "It was foretold that you two would be here," Vader said.

"I'm glad that you think so, Anakin. I've waited a long time for this. By the way, how's that pretty face of yours?" Galen taunted.

"You and this child will tell me where the other remaining Jedi are."

"There are no more Jedi. You and your inquisitors saw to that," Ahsoka said. "I was beginning to see what you were under that mask but then I heard what Galen told me and I believed it was just impossible. My master could not be as vile as you."

"Believe it, Ahoska, I was there when Anakin and his little clone buddies showed up to slaughter everyone at the temple…even children. And I saw him kill my master, and the woman I loved, and now I'm going to pay back his blood a thousand times over!" Galen declared.

"Anakin Skywalker was weak, I destroyed him."

"Then I will avenge his death," Ahsoka declared.

"I don't give a shit about your metaphorical bullshit, I'm going to finish what me and Anakin started years ago," said Galen.

"Revenge is not the Jedi way," Vader replied.

"I'm my own Jedi," said Galen coldly.

Galen and Ahsoka activated their lightsabers and got into a ready stance; Vader did the same. As they stared each other down, Galen began having flashbacks to when Xena and Drallig were killed and Xena dying in his arms; Galen screamed in anger and charged towards Vader. Ahsoka followed behind them as they engaged Vader in an epic fight. Galen went on the offensive while Ahsoka went on the more passive side due to her wanting to save Anakin and bring him back to the light. Galen wanted to kill him and have vengeance against the monster he once called brother, and who betrayed him and killed everyone Galen loved just to save someone Anakin loved who still ended up dead because of him. The three of them ended up fighting along the edge of the temple. Vader Force pushed Galen off and towards the ledge at the bottom. Galen screamed and fell to the ground, seemingly unconscious. "Galen!" screamed Ahsoka as she saw Galen on the ground below; but her attention turned back to the fight. Ahsoka and Vader fought towards the center of the temple.

Kanan and Ezra called for their ship, which arrived. As they tried to escape, Vader Force pulled the Sith Holocron, which Ezra still had in his hand, to him. Ezra tried to pull it back but couldn't, so Kanan tried to help. Ahsoka tried to attack Vader, but he grabbed her and began to Force choke her. At the bottom, Galen's eyes shot open and turned yellow. As Vader had Ezra and Ahsoka within his grasp, he didn't notice Galen climbing up from behind. Galen yelled with anger as he charged at Vader. As Vader turned, Galen jumped on top of him and sliced through a part of his mask with his lightsaber. Vader screamed in pain as Galen slashed at his helmet; Vader fell to the floor, wounded, as Galen's eyes turned back to normal and he helped Ahsoka up on her feet. "Are you alright?" Galen asked.

"Yes."

"Good, let's go."

As they walked away, Ahsoka heard Anakin's voice say her name. Galen was shocked to hear it, too. As they turned, they saw part of Anakin's face within the mask, his yellow eye staring at Ahsoka and Galen. Galen stood ready with his lightsaber while Ahsoka stood in horror at what Anakin had become. "Anakin," she said in sadness.

"There you are, murderer," Galen sneered in rage. The three of them stared at each other.

Ahsoka tried to reach out to Anakin, "I won't leave you, not this time."

Galen, however, didn't try to reach out to him. "Forget it, Ahsoka, he's not your master anymore. He's a monster, a murderer who stole everything from me and everyone else."

Vader stared at them, his breathing raspy. "Then you two will die," Vader said as he activated his lightsaber. Galen stood in his aggressive stance and put his lightsaber in a reverse grip. Ahsoka readied her stance as well. Galen charged head first at Vader. Ezra tried to help but Ahsoka pushed them back as the temple closed behind them. Ezra and Kanan escaped the planet while Galen and Ahsoka kept fighting Vader. Galen and Vader exchanged blows; soon they locked sabers with each other. Galen and Vader angrily glared at each other as they were locked together, trying to get on top of the other. Ahsoka saw what was happening and realized if Galen kept at it, he was going to die; so she stabbed her sabers into the ground, causing it to crack around Galen and Vader. Without them knowing, they fell through the floor as it shattered beneath them. Galen screamed as he fell alongside Vader. Moments later, he awoke and saw there was nothing. He saw a bright light ahead and ran towards it. He looked and saw he was outside the temple. As he looked up, he saw that Vader had escaped and Ahsoka was nowhere to be found. Galen began feeling rage within him as he lost Vader; his heart began beating heavily and fast. "No," he whispered as he began seeing flashes of Xena's face. "No," he said as he began to see more of Xena's face and the memories he had with her; his eyes began to turn yellow. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He screamed as he unleashed a massive Force repulse from his body; It cracked the ground beneath and obliterated most of the trees in the vicinity.. He fell to the floor, exhausted, and his eyes turned back to normal. He then called the rebellion to retrieve him. Galen never saw Ahsoka again after that day and kept on fighting against the Empire.

A couple of years later, Galen was on the Tantive IV to protect Leia and the plans for this new ultimate weapon created by the Empire called the Death Star, a battle station capable of destroying entire planets. They were shot at by a Star Destroyer and were being cornered right on top of the planet Tatooine. Leia put the plans of the Death Star in R2 D2; she turned to Galen. "Galen, you must take an escape pod and protect this droid."

"Don't worry, Leia, I will."

Suddenly, C3P0 came in between them, "R2 D2, what do you think you're doing?" R2 explained to him that they were leaving. Galen followed them into one of the escape pods and they began heading towards the planet of Tatooine. As they entered through the atmosphere, the pod accelerated and soon, the pod tore apart. "R2, 3PO!" cried Galen as he separated from them and landed in the middle of the desert. The impact knocked him unconscious.

When he woke up, he found himself in the middle of the desert. He walked through it for hours trying to find R2 and C-3PO until eventually he began to feel a lot of heat exhaustion and fell to the sandy ground, unconscious. As he laid on the ground motionless, a hooded figure came by and took him.

When Galen awoke he found himself in a house and saw someone cooking some food. "Who are you?" Galen asked the hooded figure.

The figure turned and removed his hood, it was Obi Wan Kenobi but he was an old man now. "Hello, Galen."

Galen was shocked to see Obi Wan after all these years. "Obi Wan?"

"Come, I made some dinner."

As Galen and Obi Wan ate, Galen noticed how old Obi Wan had become. "Look how old you've gotten."

"And you still look the same as the last time I saw you many years ago."

"Yeah, but you know what? I've actually been trying to make a difference in the galaxy for nineteen years now while you were sitting on your ass doing nothing but watching some child of the man who betrayed me and stole everything from me as well."

"Galen, I have a responsibility to watch over him. The time will soon come when he will be trained."

"Fuck your responsibility!" Galen exclaimed. "You plan on training that bastard child like you trained his father? Fuck that! you know what? I wish you died on Naboo instead of Qui Gon, the one who was meant to train Anakin, not you! Or better yet, why didn't you choose someone with more experience than you to train Anakin?!"

"Galen, that's all in the past," Obi Wan calmly asserted.

Galen slammed his fists on the table. "ANAKIN SKYWALKER, DESTROYED MY PAST, HE TOOK EVERYTHING AWAY FROM ME! LEFT ME WITH NOTHING BUT PAIN AND MISERY! I SPENT SO MANY YEARS HUNTING HIM DOWN FIGHTING AGAINST HIM AND SIDIOUS' OPPRESSION WHILE YOU SAT ON YOUR ASS ON THIS SHITHOLE PLANET AND DID NOTHING WHILE OTHERS WERE SUFFERING AND NEEDED YOU!"

"Galen, you must calm yourself."

Galen controlled his emotions and took some deep breaths. He began to look around the room they were in, and noticed a box; as he opened it, his eyes widened as he saw that it contained Anakin's saber. He began having flashbacks to when Anakin killed him with it along with his master and the woman he loved; he placed his hand near his heart, the place where Anakin stabbed him. "You still have this?" Galen asked, quietly.

"Yes."

"Why?"

"To remind me of my old friend."

Galen didn't care about Anakin, not after what he did to him. "Listen, can you help me find R2 and C3PO? They're out there somewhere and R2 has a message for you."

"Of course, Galen."

The next day, Galen and Obi Wan went out into the desert to look for the droids. Suddenly, they noticed a young man getting attacked by a Tusken Raider. This began to fuel Galen's anger because it reminded him of how Anakin became the way that he did because of the Sand People kidnapping, torturing and killing Anakin's mother which caused him to go down this dark path causing the deaths of Xena, Drallig and all the Jedi. "HEY!" Galen shouted angrily as he charged at the Tusken, grabbed him and pinned him against a rock wall with the Force. He pulled out his saber and put it to the Tusken's neck. "Get the fuck out of here or I swear I'll take your head and throw it into a hole! You got that, savage?!" The Tusken nodded. Galen pulled him off the wall and kicked him away. "NOW GET OUT OF HERE YOU FUCKING SAVAGE!" The Tusken ran off into the canyon.

Galen turned and saw the unconscious man. Obi Wan went to examine him. Then they heard a beeping sound and saw that it was R2 hiding behind some rocks. "Hello there," Obi Wan said to the droid. "Come here my little friend, don't be afraid."

"R2, it's good to see you buddy," Galen happily said.

Obi Wan helped the young man up. "Ben? Ben Kenobi? Boy am I glad to see you," The young man remarked.

Galen looked at him confused, like he's seen him before."Who are you? What's your name?"

"I'm Luke, Luke Skywalker."

Galen became bewildered and stood frozen still; this was the son of the man who betrayed him.

Luke looked at Galen with a confused expression. "Um, are you okay?" Luke asked.

Galen snapped out of the state he was in saying, "Oh, yeah I'm fine." He looked around for C-3P0 and found him but he was missing an arm. "3P0, are you okay?"

"I'm alright, Master Marek. But I think I lost my arm."

"I found it, it's right here," Luke announced.

"Come with me, I know a safe place to go to," Obi Wan declared. Galen and the others returned to Obi Wan's hut.

While Luke was repairing C-3P0, Obi Wan told him stories about his father. "No, my father didn't fight in the war, he was a navigator on a spice freighter," Luke said

"That's what your uncle told you. He never believed in your father's ideals; he thought he should stay here and not get involved," Obi Wan expressed.

Luke was surprised. "You fought in the Clone Wars?"

"Yes, I was once a Jedi Knight, the same as your father, and the same as Galen over there."

"I still am a Jedi. Unlike you," Galen retorted.

Luke felt saddened. "I wished I'd known him."

"He was the best star pilot in the galaxy, and a cunning warrior, and he was a good friend," Obi Wan declared happily.

As Obi Wan spoke, Galen was assailed by flashbacks of the past to the great moments he had with Anakin, when they were children, and when they fought together in the Clone Wars; but these happy memories began turning dark when he flashed back to when Anakin killed Galen and everyone he ever loved.

Obi Wan then proceeded to give Luke his father's lightsaber and explained to Luke about the Jedi, how they were the guardians of peace and justice for the old Republic before the Empire came along.

Luke then asked Obi Wan, "How did my father die?"

Galen and Obi Wan were hesitant; Obi Wan spoke to Luke. "The young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi Knights. He betrayed and murdered your father. Vader was seduced by the Dark Side of the Force."

Luke felt confused. "The Force?"

"The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things, it surrounds us, it penetrates us, it binds the galaxy together," Obi Wan explained.

Galen was confused about why Obi Wan didn't tell Luke what really happened. He turned to R2 and said, "R2, play the message that Obi Wan needs to listen to." R2 played the message for Obi Wan; Leia told Obi Wan how desperate the situation is and that she needs his help.

Obi Wan then turned to Luke. "You must learn the ways of the Force, if you are to come with me to Alderan."

Luke was confused. "Alderan? I can't go to Alderan. I got to get home. It's late."

Galen agreed with Luke. "Yeah, we don't need that kid. You and I can take Vader down for good, and then we'll go and kill Sidious."

"We need Luke's help, she needs Luke's help, and I'm getting too old for this sort of thing anymore."

"I can't get involved, I got work to do. It's not that I don't like the Empire, I hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it right now. It's such a long way from there," Luke protested.

"That's your uncle talking," Obi Wan responded.

"How can I explain this to him?" asked Luke.

"Learn about the Force Luke?" implored Obi Wan.

"Look, I'll take you guys as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport to Mos Eisley or wherever you're going," Luke said.

"You must do what you feel is right of course," Obi Wan responded.

"Alright I'll go outside and wait for you guys when you're ready," Luke said as he went out the door.

When Luke left, Galen glared at Obi Wan angrily.

Obi Wan had a confused expression. "What?"

"What do you mean, what? Why didn't you tell Luke the truth?"

"The truth about what?"

"The truth that his father is a fucking traitor who slaughtered everything I had ever loved and that he is Darth Vader."

"Luke is not ready to learn about this sort of thing," Obi Wan protested.

"Why not?" Galen asked.

"Because he's not ready to carry this burden," Obi Wan declared.

Galen became frustrated. "Whatever."

Galen and the others traveled through the desert. Soon, they noticed dead Jawa's and sand people. Obi Wan deduced that this was caused by Imperials. Luke realized that these Jawas were the ones that sold R2 and C-3P0 to him. Luke's expression then turned to fear as he realized the Imperials would've traced the droids back to Luke's homestead; Luke raced toward his speeder. "Wait Luke, it's too dangerous," Obi Wan yelled.

"Luke, wait Luke!" Galen said as he ran after him to try to stop him. But Luke sped off towards his homestead.

Hours later, Luke returned and his eyes were filled with sadness. Galen noticed Luke's expression; he didn't care but suddenly, he began to empathize with Luke and felt pity for him. Obi Wan approached Luke. "Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru…they're dead, just like those Jawas."

"There was nothing you could've done Luke."

"I want to come with you and Galen to Alderan, there's nothing for me here now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi like my father."

Galen spoke out. "Alright, but you better listen to what we say Luke, you got that? No slacking off."

"Yes Galen, I will."

Galen and the others traveled to Mos Eisley, as they arrived there, Galen grabbed a robe to hide his identity. As they entered Mos Eisley, a stormtrooper approached them. Galen began preparing to snap the stormtrooper's neck with the Force, but Obi Wan grabbed Galen's hand to stop him from doing it.

"Let me see your identification, please," the Stormtrooper declared.

"You don't need to see his identification," Obi Wan said as he used a Mind Trick on the Stormtrooper.

"We don't need to see his identification."

"These aren't the droids you're looking for."

"These aren't the droids we're looking for."

"He can go about his business."

"You can go about your business."

"Move along."

"Move along, move along."

Galen and the others drove past the trooper. Luke was confused. "I can't understand how we got past him?"

"The Force, it has a strong influence on the weak minded," Obi Wan answered.

"Something you will learn soon enough," Galen added.

Galen and his allies entered the cantina. They saw many people of different species. They went throughout the cantina to look for a good pilot to bring them to Alderan. Suddenly, Galen noticed Luke getting attacked by some low life alien thug. Galen activated his saber against the thug; the criminal pointed his blaster towards Galen and fired, but Galen deflected the blaster bolt and sliced off the low life's arm. Everyone was shocked but they chose not to interfere; Galen put his saber towards the low life's neck and threatened, "Now, why don't you and your buddy get the hell outta here, before you lose that other arm?" The low life thug and his friend ran away in fear. Galen looked at Luke who was on the ground. "Are you alright?"

"Yes, thanks," Luke responded.

Obi Wan approached the two of them. "Come along you two. I've found us a pilot."

Galen and the others went to a corner of the room and Galen noticed someone particular. His eyes widened as he saw a familiar face from his past; it was Chewbacca, the Wookie he helped during the Clone Wars. "Chewbacca?"

The Wookie recognized Galen as well. The person next to him had a confused expression. "Chewie, you know this guy?" Chewbacca let out an explanatory roar.

"You met him during the Clone Wars?"

"Yes, and who are you?" Galen asked.

"Han Solo, I'm captain of the Millenium Falcon." He then shook Galen's hand.

"Galen Marek."

Han was surprised; he knew him as The Immortal Jedi and other names. "The Ghost of the Jedi Order?"

"Yeah."

Obi Wan negotiated with Han. He told them that they would give him some money if they take them to Alderan and pay him double once they get there. Han agreed and told them to meet with them in one of the hangers.

Suddenly, Stormtroopers appeared and started shooting at them. Han drew his blaster and began firing while Galen took out his lightsaber to deflect their attacks back at the imperials. "Han, get to the ship, I'll cover you!"

"You got it!" Han responded as he ran onto the ship.

Galen ran inside with them as the ship took off. They left the planet and went into lightspeed.

As they traveled, Galen and Obi Wan began to train Luke in the ways of the Force. Galen trained Luke with the basics of lightsaber combat while Obi Wan taught Luke how to let the Force flow through him. They trained Luke by having him use a training remote to test his reflexes. Suddenly, Obi Wan and Galen felt a disturbance in the Force; Luke confusingly looked at them. "What's wrong?" asked Luke.

"We felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced," Obi Wan replied, shaken.

"We're coming up on Alderan," Han announced.

Galen and the others gathered at the cockpit. When they got out of hyperspace, they found nothing but space debris."That's odd, it says we're at Alderan but it's not there."

"Alderan has been destroyed by the Empire," Obi Wan announced.

Galen became full of anger realizing that Bail Organa and many other innocent lives were obliterated by the Empire. "Those fuckers, they'll pay for what they've done."

Luke pointed ahead saying, "Hey, there's a large moon ahead of us."

Obi Wan began feeling a sense of dread. "That's no moon…it's a space station."

"Holy shit, it's the Death Star," Galen chimed in.

Suddenly, they found themselves caught in a tractor beam getting pulled into the Death Star. Galen started feeling desperate. "Fuck, what do we do? There's a whole army of them in that massive station."

"There are alternatives to fighting," Obi Wan answered.

As the Millennium Falcon landed in the hanger bay, the stormtroopers looked inside the ship but they found nothing. When they left, Galen and the others got out from under the floorboards. Vader was outside seeing if they found the intruders. Suddenly, he felt the presence of Galen Marek and stormed out of the room to search for him. Galen felt Vader's presence as well and his rage began to boil but Obi Wan restrained him. They thought of how they could find a way to shut down the tractor beam so they could get out of here. Han called for some stormtroopers to come up; when they did, Galen attacked using only his hands and snapped their necks with the Force and stealth. Han and Luke disguised themselves as stormtroopers while Galen and Chewie were handcuffed. Obi Wan followed along with them. They broke into the main control room to find the location of the powerbeam that's holding the ship. "I will disable the tractor beam," Obi Wan announced.

"Wait, let me go with you," insisted Luke.

"No, your destiny lies on a different path with mine. You must stay with Galen and the others," replied Obi Wan,

Galen felt annoyed about having to deal with Luke due to him being the son of the man who betrayed him.

"The Force will be with you, always," Obi Wan said to Luke as he went to disable the tractor beam.

"R2 D2 has found her," C-3P0 announced.

"Who?" Galen asked.

"The princess," C-3P0 answered.

"Leia, she's here we have to go get her," declared Galen.

"I'll go with you, Galen," Luke said.

"I'm not," Han declared.

"What? But they're gonna kill her," Luke insisted.

"Better her than me," Han replied.

Galen grabbed Han by the chestplate and pulled him off the chair he was seated in. "Listen up smuggler, this rebellion needs her leadership. Either you help us or we leave your ass," Galen said, frustrated. Han wasn't convinced

Luke chimed in and said, "She's rich and powerful. Just imagine the reward you would get from rescuing her."

Han began to think it through. "Alright, alright I'll help her." He then turned to Galen, "Now will you please let me go?"

Galen smiled, "Good." He released Han. "Alright here's the plan, you and Han handcuff me and Chewie so you can take us down to the detention center, once we're there me and Chewie can break free and kill those imps and get Leia outta here," declared Galen.

"Sounds like a plan," Han responded.

"Excellent." He then looked at Luke with resentment. "Don't get in my way, sandrat."

Luke was offended by Galen's comment to him.

Galen and Chewie were handcuffed and brought to the detention center. The imperial officer noticed the Wookie but he really noticed Galen. "Impressive, you captured the Immortal Jedi." The officer said, confident.

"Yea, your little buddies really got me good, by the way I have a message for you officer."

"Really, and what is it?"

"This!" Galen yelled as he summoned his saber and sliced the officer's head off, Luke and the others shot the other troopers in the area and destroyed the surveillance in the room. Luke and Galen looked for the cell that Leia was held in. They managed to find the cell she was in, Leia looked and saw it was Galen, "Galen? It's so good for you to come get me." she looked at the stormtrooper beside him, "Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?"

Luke took off his helmet. "I'm Luke Skywalker, I'm here to rescue you."

"Luke?"

"Yes, I brought your R2 unit with me and I'm here with Obi Wan Kenobi."

Leia was surprised, "Obi Wan?"

"Yea, now let's go." Galen declared.

They tried going through the hall but a squad of stormtroopers were in front of them, Galen deflected some of their shots back at them with his lightsaber while Luke and the others shot at them. But more kept coming so Leia thought to go into the garbage chute to escape. Galen agreed and they went in through the vent that led into the garbage hatch. Galen and the others were stuck in the garbage chute trying to find a way out but then the walls began closing in on them Han, Leia, Luke and Chewie trying to push it back with objects while Galen used the Force to slow it down; luckily Luke called C-3P0 and told him to tell R2 to shut down the garbage hatch which R2 successfully did. Galen and the others escaped and they managed to find their way into the hangar where the Falcon was. Galen looked to his right and saw Obi Wan fight Vader. Galen began walking towards him wanting to settle the score with Anakin but Obi Wan gave him a look to not help him but to help Luke instead. Obi Wan looked at Vader and raised his saber up. Vader sliced through Obi Wan but his body vanished and all that was left was his robe and lightsaber. Luke became horrified, "NO!" he shouted. Stormtroopers began firing on Galen and the others. Galen and the group managed to escape the Death Star and headed to Yavin 4.

They managed to reach Yavin 4, Galen delivered the plans to the Rebels they discussed that the only way to take down the Death Star was to fire a couple of proton torpedoes into the exhaust port that lead directly into the main reactor which would cause a chain reaction and destroy the base. Galen and the others prepared for battle, Galen noticed Luke and Han talking, Luke tried to convince Han to help them but Han refused telling Luke he has a debt he has to pay to Jabba the Hutt he then told Luke, "May the Force be with you." as him and Chewie left.

Galen in his modified Jedi Interceptor and Red Squadron flew towards the Death Star. An epic battle ensued, ties were everywhere Galen fired at them with his twin gatling guns that he installed in his starfighter. He seemed to have the upper hand until his starfighter was hit by an ionic blast from a TIE Fighter causing his system to malfunction, it was about to deliver the killing shot. Suddenly, a voice shouted, "GALEN!" Galen turned and saw Luke fly in and blasted the TIE right out of the sky and the TIE exploded. Galen was surprised that Luke saved him and kept on the fight. They managed to fly down to the trench where it led to the exhaust port, Galen was flying behind Luke for cover. Suddenly he sensed that Anakin was coming as well as a couple of TIES with him. Luke was using his targeting system until he heard Obi Wan's voice tell him, "Use the Force, Luke." Luke listened and deactivated his targeting computer. Vader sensed that Galen was in that Jedi Fighter and shot at Galen. Galen's fighter had been damaged. "FUCK I CAN'T STAY WITH YOU LUKE!"

"Galen, get clear, now!" Luke insisted.

"NO LUKE I CAN'T YOU'LL BE KILLED!"

Vader fired at Luke's Xwing, hitting R2 and damaging him. He then aimed his targeting system at Luke to deal the finishing blow. "I have you now." Taunted Vader. Suddenly a blast hit one of Vader's TIE supports, Vader sat confused. "What?"

"YAHOO!" yelled a voice Galen recognized who that voice was, it was Han who flew in to help Luke, "You're all clear kid, now let's blow this thing and go home." he insisted.

Galen yelled out, "LUKE, TAKE THE SHOT!"

Luke fired his torpedoes to the shaft and used the force to direct them into it. Galen and the others flew away from the Death Star until it exploded. Han was so proud of Luke. "Great shot kid that was one in a million."

"YEAH, FUCK YOU TARKIN AND ALL YOU IMPS I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL!" Galen shouted

Galen and the others landed in the hangar bay at Yavin 4. Everyone cheered and applauded for Luke, Leia and Han embraced him. Luke turned and saw Galen walking up to him, Galen had a serious look on his face but then he hugged Luke and smiled. "You did it Luke, you took down the Death Star. Thank you Luke, for saving my life."

Luke smiled, "You're welcome, Galen. Thank you for believing in me."

Galen smiled.

R2 was damaged and needed some repairs, luckily C-3P0 was willing to help him get repaired, Galen walked out of the hangar with Han, Luke and Leia.

A celebration was held for Luke and Han with Chewie at Han's side as they walked down the aisle passing the other rebels. Galen stood at the top with Leia and everyone else wearing clean Jedi armor. Luke and Han walked up the steps where Leia gave Han his medal. Luke looked at Galen who gave Luke a serious expression which changed to a proud smile and put Luke's medal over his head and gave him a look of approval; Luke smiled back at Galen. Galen turned and saw R2 was fixed, Luke and Han turned to face the crowd and they all applauded for them, a rebel soldier took a picture of Galen and the others with Galen's datapad which contained all the photos of his past. Galen felt a sense of victory feeling good that Bail and the people of Alderan were avenged but this was the beginning of the tide being turned for them. For three years Galen went on many adventures with Han, Luke and Leia, he began to trust Luke and be open to him as well as sharing stories of his time as a general in the Clone Wars as well as his master and his beloved Xena but he never told him the truth about his father .

Eventually they were attacked by the Empire and were forced to retreat to a new planet to form a new base. They managed to stumble upon the ice world of Hoth where they constructed a base there called Echo Base. One day, Galen was out patrolling the area on his Taun Taun wearing a furry winter pelt and clothes made from a Wampa he killed on this planet. He activated his wrist communicator to talk to Han and Luke, "Everything seems clear in this area, what do you have Luke?"

"I saw a meteorite crash in the vicinity, I'm gonna check it out."

"Alright, Luke but be careful. Han, do you have anything?"

"No, my side's clear, no sign of any imperial's anywhere," Han announced.

"Good, I'm going to be heading back to Echo Base," Galen declared.

Galen arrived on Echo Base with Han, while there he noticed Han and Chewie trying to fix the hyperdrive on the Falcon; he came into the control room to debrief the situation and told them it was clear. Han came in and said the same but then he talked about leaving so he can go settle his debt with Jabba. He then overheard Han and Leia arguing and could sense that something was forming between them. After a while, Galen started to get worried about where Luke was; he went to talk to C-3P0, "Hey 3P0, have you seen Luke?"

"No, Master Galen, I haven't heard from him. Nobody has heard from him."

This began to really concern Galen he went to go tell Han about it and they began a search party together but the men warned them not to go out there because it's a storm, "I don't care, we need him back, he'll die if we don't find him," Galen insisted. Galen and Han rode out into the snow storm to find Luke.

The wind howled as snow blew through Galen's winter clothes; he felt the intense cold hit his face. He closed his eyes to try to withstand the cold. Suddenly, he heard his master's voice echoing his name, "Galen? Galen?"

Galen opened his eyes, he was around 9 years old on the planet Illum with his master to construct his lightsaber. "Galen!" Cin yelled.

Galen turned to see him, "Master?"

"Come along Galen, this way."

Cin and Galen entered a cavern that was out of the storm and saw that the cavern was filled with beautiful crystals of many colors on the walls and ceiling. Galen was amazed by the site, "Wow, what is this place master?" Galen asked.

"This place, Galen is where all padawans go to find their Kyber Crystal and construct their lightsaber," declared Cin.

Galen was surprised, "All Padawans, even my mom and dad?"

"Even Kento came down here when he was your age, refused to leave until his saber was able to glow of pure light."

Galen became so amazed by the story of his father.

Galen noticed all the Kyber Crystals hanging on the wall; he asked his master. "So what kind of crystal can I choose, master?"

"You don't choose the crystal, Galen, it chooses you." Cin answered. He pointed Galen to a pathway. "You must go that way to get your Kyber crystal, alone." declared Cin.

Galen was hesitant at first but found the courage to proceed into the cave entrance.

"May the Force be with you, Galen Marek." Cin announced.

Galen entered through the cave, it was a massive void. Suddenly, he saw a dark hooded figure with a red lightsaber coming towards him; Galen got scared and began to run from him. He then fell into a hole that led towards cold water beneath him. He swam to the surface and coughed up some water. He began feeling fear and started to doubt himself. "I can't do this, I can't do this alone."

Suddenly a soothing voice told him, "You are not alone, Galen."

Galen turned and saw it was his mother Mawley Jade smiling at him. "Mom?"

"We are always here, Galen."

Then another voice chimed in. "Here, in your heart."

Galen turned and saw his father, Kento Marek. "Dad?"

"We will always be with you, you must trust only in the Force." declared Kento.

Galen began feeling a sense of courage. "You're right, I must." Galen said.

He took his father and his mother's hands and they guided him towards the light. In front of him, he saw that it was a blue Kyber Crystal. He felt it speaking to him; he plucked it out of the wall and felt its power. He then saw a makeshift table and placed the Crystal on it. He then pulled out of his bag all the parts and materials he needed to construct his lightsaber. He went down on his knees and closed his eyes. The crystal and all the materials began floating off the ground and he began to assemble his lightsaber with the Force; the crystal came to the center all the parts formed together including the grip which had a carving of a Krayt Dragon rising up on the hilt to the emitter but above it was the sun and inside it was the Jedi Order's symbol. The parts assembled together perfectly, Galen opened his eyes and the lightsaber floated into his hand. He looked at it with assurance and activated the saber, and it shot out a blue blade. Galen smiled and took his other hand to grasp the saber and raised it above his head.

Later at the entrance way, Cin saw Galen walk out of the entrance and noticed Galen's new saber in his hand. "Let me see that, padawan." Galen handed him his lightsaber. Cin examined the saber, "Hm, the hilt looks good," He activated the saber and was impressed, he then tested the saber by swift swings and strikes. "This is a good lightsaber." He then noticed the carving of the Krayt Dragon and the sun with the Order's symbol. "What's this?"

"I carved it because it reminds me about how when we fall down we always rise back up just like the Krayt Dragon, it rises up and takes down its enemies. The sun with the Jedi Order's symbol represents us as the light for the galaxy," answered Galen.

"Well done, padawan. But remember this mantra:

The crystal is the heart of the blade.

The heart is the crystal of the Jedi.

The Jedi is the crystal of the Force.

The Force is the blade of the heart.

All are intertwined: the crystal, the blade, the Jedi. We are one."

"Yes master, I'll take this mantra by heart," vowed Galen.

Cin smiled, "Good, and remember this weapon is your life," Cin said as he gave Galen back his lightsaber. "Alright then let's go, you still have much to learn."

"Yes, master." Galen and Cin put up their hoods and began to walk towards the exit of the temple back into the stormy blizzard. Cin placed his arm around on top of Galen as they walked. Galen asked Cin, "Master, do you think I'll be a great Jedi someday?"

"Yes Galen, one day, you will be one of the greatest even greater than your father," Cin declared

Galen smiled as they exited the temple. As they walked through the storm Galen closed his eyes. Suddenly, he heard Han's voice calling his name in an echo. "Galen. Galen."

Galen opened his eyes in the present time. He heard Han shout, "GALEN!"

"What is it Han?"

"I found him, I found Luke," Han announced

Galen saw Luke motionless on the ground, most of his face was scratched and bleeding. Galen was relieved to see him, "Good now let's-" but before Galen could get him back on his Taun Taun, his and Han's Taun Taun died. Galen became frustrated. He then heard Luke murmur, "Ben. Ben." Galen was confused; he then told Han. "Han put Luke inside of the Tauntaun's guts to keep him warm. I'll build us a shelter."

"Got it." Han used Luke's saber and sliced the Tauntaun's stomach open. As he did, Luke murmured, "Dagobah System, Dagobah, Yoda."

Galen was surprised when he heard the name Yoda he hadn't heard from him for years. Galen used the Force to create an Ice Dome around them for shelter.

The next day, a snowspeeder arrived to pick them up. Galen brought Luke to Echo Base into the medical bay. He was placed in a bacta tank to recover. Galen watched as Luke floated in the tank.

Afterwards, Galen, Han and the others went to visit Luke in his medical chamber. Galen was happy to see Luke was alright, Han began to tease Leia about her having feelings for him and Leia became a bit embarrassed. She then made Han jealous by kissing Luke, this made Galen's eye widen in shock knowing those two were brother and sister and began to feel very uncomfortable. Leia left the room, Galen, Han and Chewie remained silent while Luke put his hands over his head. Afterwards, Galen talked with Luke, he told Galen that Obi Wan's spirit told him to go to Dagobah to learn from Yoda. "Well, I'm coming with you, Luke," Galen insisted.

"Why?" Asked Luke.

"So I can help with your training, I know we've been at this for three years but now that things are bad you might need another teacher, Yoda is a great Jedi Master he was one of the people besides my master Cin Drallig who instructed me," Galen answered.

Later, they discovered that a probe droid was spotted out in the mountains and the Empire had found him. The Empire sent AT-ATs and AT-ST's, while Galen and the rebellion flew in on their snowspeeders Galen managed to take out a lot of AT-STs and AT-AT's and soon Echo Base was beginning to swarm with imps. Soon enough the rebels were able to evacuate Galen got out of his snowspeeder and met up with Luke. "Come on Luke, let's go," Galen said. Galen got into his Jedi interceptor while Anakin got into his X-Wing with R2 and they both flew towards Dagobah. When they entered the atmosphere, their equipment began malfunctioning. "Fuck, shit!" Galen yelled. "Luke, are you alright?"

"No, my systems are going haywire," Luke replied.

"Hold on, Luke, brace for impact! Galen yelled.

They crashed into the swamps Luke, Galen and R2 got out of their ships and headed into the forest to look for Yoda.

They stopped to set up camp, "Now all we have to do is find this Yoda, if he even exists," said Luke.

"I'm sure he does, he's done nothing these past years except hide away like a coward," Galen replied.

"Still, there's something familiar about this place."

"What do you mean?" Asked Galen.

"I don't know I feel like-"

"Feel like what?" A voice chimed in.

Galen pointed his saber and Luke pointed his blaster at the person who said it and the person became startled, "Like we're being watched," said Luke.

"Away with your weapons I mean you no harm," The green creature said.

Galen recognized the green creature and realized it was Yoda, "Yoda, it's been a long time."

"Yoda, I am not Yoda."

Galen stood confused then he looked at Luke who was looking at the green creature and realized he was testing him. He decided to go along with it. "You're right, my mistake," Galen said as he put away his lightsaber.

"I am wondering, why are you here?" The green creature asked.

"I'm looking for someone," answered Luke.

"Looking, found someone you have I would say, hm?" The green creature said as he laughed.

The green creature said that he knows Yoda and that he would help Luke and Galen find him, but Galen knew that the green creature was Yoda. They sat in his hut and ate some of the food he made, "How far away is Yoda, will it take us long to get there?" Asked Luke.

"Yoda not far, soon you'll meet him." The green creature said. He then asked Luke, "Why must you become Jedi?"

"Mostly because of my father I guess," Luke responded.

"Oh father, powerful Jedi was he is, hmm powerful Jedi."

Galen began having bad memories of Anakin killing his master Drallig, Galen himself and Xena as well as watching Xena die in his arms he began feeling anger by the mention of Anakin but restrained himself and kept it to himself.

"How could you know my father you don't even know who I am," Luke began feeling frustrated and impatient," I don't even know what we're doing here, we're wasting our time!"

The little green creature began feeling annoyed, "I cannot teach him, the boy has no patience."

"He will learn patience," Obi Wan said in a disembodied voice which surprised Luke and Galen.

The creature turned to look at Luke, "Much anger in him, like his father."

"Was I any different when you taught me and Galen?" Obi Wan asked.

Yoda looked at Luke. "He's not ready."

Luke began putting the pieces together. "Yoda."

Yoda nodded in confirmation, Luke looked at Galen to see if it was true and he nodded yes. "I am ready. Ben, Galen I can be a Jedi, Ben tell him I'm read-" Luke hit his head on the ceiling which made Galen chuckle.

"Ready are you? One knows ready. For 800 years have I trained Jedi like Galen here,"explained Yoda "A Jedi, must tell the deepest commitment, the most serious mind." He then began talking about Luke, "This one, a long time have I watched. All his life as he looked away to the future to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was," Yoda said as he poked Luke with his cane, "What he was doing. Adventure heh, excitement heh, a Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless."

"So was I, if you remember," chimed in Obi Wan.

"He is too old, yes too old to begin the training."

"But I've learned so much, especially from Galen," Luke insisted

Yoda became doubtful, "Will he finish what he begins."

"I won't fail you or Galen. I'm not afraid," declared Luke.

"Good, you will be. You will be," Yoda declared.

Galen and Yoda began training Luke, Yoda taught him the use of Force abilities while Galen trained him more in lightsaber combat and how to use the force efficiently. Each time they sparred Galen bested Luke and pushed him into the muck but Luke was able to learn some techniques from Galen. During his training, Luke entered into a cave where he saw a vision of Vader and cut off his head but then the mask exploded, when Luke looked into it he saw himself beneath the mask. When Galen, Yoda and Luke were meditating, Luke had a vision of his friends suffering but Galen and Yoda told him to ignore it. As they kept on training R2 noticed his X-Wing sinking deeper beneath the swampy water and interrupted Luke and Galen's training. Galen became annoyed with R2, "Dammit R2, what is it?" R2 directed Galen and Luke to the sunken X-Wing.

Luke became annoyed as well, "Oh no we'll never get it out now."

Yoda became frustrated with Luke, "Always with you it cannot be done, do you nothing that I say."

"Master Yoda, lifting stones around is one thing this is totally different," complained Luke.

"No, no different, only different in mind. You must unlearn what you have learned."

"Alright, I'll give it a try," said Luke.

"No, try not, do, or do not, there is no try," Yoda declared.

Luke began using the Force to try to lift the X-Wing out of the water. Soon Galen and Yoda began having an amazed expression as they saw the X-Wing rise from the water; suddenly, Luke began slipping and the X-Wing sank back into the water Galen and Yoda's expression turned into disappointment. Luke sat on the ground out of breath, "I can't, it's too big."

"Size matters not, look at me judge me by my size do you? And where you should not. For my ally is the Force and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us, and binds us. Luminous beings are we not this crude matter," Yoda said as he pinched Luke's shoulder. "You must feel the Force around you. Here, between you, me, between the rock, everywhere yes even between the land, and the ship."

Luke didn't believe what Yoda was saying. "You want the impossible." He then turned to Galen, "Galen, please take my ship out of the swamp," Luke insisted.

"No, this is something you have to do," Galen declared.

Luke went off into a corner and sat down, frustrated. Yoda sighed, he closed his eyes, reached his hand out towards the ship, and used the Force to lift it out of the water towards them. Galen smiled as he saw Yoda use the Force again after all these years. Luke was amazed at the sight of it as it landed on solid ground. Luke walked up to Yoda amazed by what he did, "I don't, I don't believe it."

"That, is why you fail," said Yoda

During Luke's training, Galen had a conversation with Yoda. "Yoda, where have you been? Why don't you come help me and the Rebels in the fight against the Empire?" Galen asked.

"Because fighting is not what I need to do," Yoda answered.

"Oh bullshit! So many people need your help and you and Obi Wan just sat on your asses and let them suffer while I have been the one trying to help them all this time," Galen said, furiously

Yoda chose to remain silent.

Eventually, Luke stopped his training to go save his friends. Yoda and Obi Wan try to stop him from going but Luke didn't want to listen. "I'm going with you," said Galen.

"No," declared Yoda.

"Master Yoda, I've waited 23 years for this, I'm done waiting, I'm going to go face Vader," declared Galen.

"No, this is Luke's fight, on his own he must do this," said Yoda.

Galen was upset. "Whatever," said Galen and he let Luke go. Galen took his Jedi Interceptor out of the swamp, cleaned up, and got into it. As he left he looked to Yoda, "Goodbye, Master," said Galen as he flew into space to find the Rebel Fleet. When he finally arrived at the Rebels' rendezvous point, he was reunited with Leia, C-3P0 and Chewbacca. Galen noticed that Han wasn't with him. "Leia, where's Han?" Galen asked.

Leia was hesitant, "He was captured by the Empire, taken by Boba Fett to Tatooine."

Galen noticed the man standing by him, "Who is this?" Galen asked.

"My name is Lando, Lando Calrisian."

"He was the one who got Han captured." Leia added.

Galen became angry, he grabbed Lando and pinned to the wall. "You son of a bitch!" He yelled.

"Listen, I had no choice against the Empire but I helped your friends escape. They wouldn't be here if they weren't for me."

Galen paused for a moment and released him. "Fine, but you, are going to have to earn my trust," declared Galen.

"Of course, I will help you find Han." Lando replied.

Moments afterward, he found Luke in the medical bay with his right hand missing. This shocked Galen, flashing back to when he saw Anakin missing an arm after his fight with Dooku; Luke told him that he learned from Vader that he was his father. "Yes Luke, I know Vader is your father, Anakin Skywalker."

Luke was shocked and confused "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Because Obi Wan told me not to tell you. He believed you weren't ready for that burden of knowing that."

Luke was shocked. "So, that's why you didn't like me when we first met, because of what my father did to you."

Galen was hesitant, "He was a good friend once, I thought of him as my brother. I trusted him with my life since we were kids. But then Sidious got to him and corrupted him and I couldn't stop him from killing my master, the woman I loved and me. But the Force brought me back to life and made me immortal. Xena died in my arms and I swore revenge on your father. I went to go fight him, defeated him and left him to burn on the shores of Mustafar. I thought he was dead but he survived, and I've hunted down that asshole for years for what he did," explained Galen.

Luke understood why Galen was like this, "I'm sorry, I didn't know."

"It doesn't matter now. What matters is that you need to finish your training and together we will destroy the Sith, for good," declared Galen. But Luke felt hesitant to kill his own father. A year later, Galen and the others went to Jabba's Palace on Tatooine to save Han. Leia was able to thaw Han out of his carbonite casing but she was captured. Galen and Luke entered the palace to confront Jabba. When they stood before him Jabba recognized Galen due to his reputation as a general in the Clone Wars and as The Immortal Jedi. Luke tried to negotiate with Jabba to release Han, but Jabba refused. He clicked a button that opened up a trapdoor beneath Galen and Luke and they fell into a pit. Suddenly, a massive door opened in front of them. Out of it emerged…a Rancor. Galen and Luke had a hard time trying to fight it since they didn't have their lightsabers. They struggled with it for a bit, then Luke threw a skull at a switch that made the door slam on top of the Rancor and killed it. Galen became confident, he looked up at Jabba, "Is that it? Is that all you got you slimy fuck!" Jabba ordered them to take Galen and Luke as well as Han and Chewie. They were sentenced to be eaten by the Sarlacc Pit.

They traveled towards the pit of Carkoon where the Sarlacc was at, Luke looked at Jabba's sail barge, "Jabba, this is your last chance, free us or die!" Warned Luke. Jabba wouldn't listen. Luke gave a nod to Galen who gave a nod back to Luke, Galen then gave a nod to a guard who was Lando in disguise. Luke gave a salute to R2 who was on top of the sail barge and his head opened revealing two lightsabers. Jabba ordered for Luke to be thrown in. But as Luke leapt off, he grabbed onto the plank and flipped himself back on the ship while R2 shot out both Luke's new lightsaber and Galen's saber. Luke and Galen caught their sabers and began slicing up the henchman. Boba Fett arrived on the scene and tied up Luke with his strong wire. He pointed his blaster at Galen. "I've waited a long time for this, Ghost of the Jedi Order. Revenge for what you did to my father."

Galen remembered when Jango Fett tried to kill him all those years ago on Geonosis and managed to incapacitate him and Mace cutting off his head. He also thought back to when Boba tried to kill Mace Windu out of revenge; he heard about Boba Fett for years as the most famous bounty hunter in the galaxy even getting attacked by him on some occasions but managed to escape his grasp. Galen talked with Boba, "Boba, your father was an evil man who deserved his fate. Especially when he killed a Jedi Master named Coleman Trebor, it was his own fault for joining the Separatists. But you were just a boy then, so I offer you one last chance for forgiveness, and mercy," Galen said.

"I don't accept offers…from Jedi," Boba said as he prepared to fire.

With quick speed, Galen sliced his blaster in half and used the Force to slam him to the ground. Luke got out of the wire he was tied up in and he and Galen continued to fight. Meanwhile, Chewie was helping Han and Lando, he noticed Boba Fett pointing his wrist blaster towards Galen and Luke. He tried to warn Han, Han was temporarily blind and confused, "Boba Fett?" Han said as he held a metal pole in his head, "Boba Fett, where?" As he said it he accidentally hit Boba Fett in his jetpack with a metal pole Boba was sent flying out of control. Galen witnessed Boba flying through the air, hit the side of the barge, tumbling through the sand, and into the Sarlacc Pit. Galen felt pity for Boba but continued fighting. Galen and Luke got on top of the barge fighting Jabba's goons while trying to rescue Leia. Leia appeared. Luke noticed a huge laser cannon; he turned to Leia, "Leia, point the cannon at the deck!" Leai began turning the cannon towards the fuel tanks of the barge.

Suddenly, Luke got shot in his robotic hand and killed the guy who shot him. Galen became concerned, "Luke, are you hurt?"

"It's alright, Galen, I'm fine," Luke answered.

Luke grabbed a rope and Leia and hit the trigger on the cannon that fired at the fuel tanks Luke swung onto the hovering boat with Leia in his arms while Galen Force Jumped onto it, "Let's go, and don't forget the droids," said Luke.

"We're on our way," Lando replied, smiling.

They managed to get R2 and C-3P0. As they sped off, the barge exploded. This made Galen feel so much pleasure and joy knowing that one of the people responsible for making Anakin this way and who caused so much suffering to the people of Tatooine was dead. "YEAH FUCK YOU YOU SLIMY FAT FUCK I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL WITH ALL YOUR ASSHOLE FRIENDS!" Galen yelled as they sped away.

Galen went with Luke to see Yoda at Dagobah. Galen and Luke learned Yoda was dying. Yoda told Luke that he must confront Vader in order to become a Jedi. He then turned to Galen who felt nothing but sadness. "Galen, you must help Luke."

"Master Yoda, what's even my purpose in coming back and being immortal?" Galen asked.

"Find that out for yourself, you're going to have to," answered Yoda. He then said to Luke, "Luke, there…is…another…Skyywalker," Yoda said as he died on his bed. Then Yoda's body vanished, tears began flowing down Galen's face and he began crying knowing that all the people from his past are gone. As they took off they were visited by Obi Wan and he told Luke about his twin sister and Luke figured out that it was Leia. Galen told Luke he also knew they were brother and sister and told how he felt really grossed out when they kissed on Hoth. Afterwards, Galen and Luke joined the Rebel Fleet. Galen learned from the Rebel's that the Empire was building a second Death Star and that the Emperor and Vader would be there, "Finally after all these years I'll finally kill the assholes who took everything from me," he thought.

One rebel became doubtful, "General, I don't know if we can do this, I mean we've suffered enough.".

Galen had a confused expression, "You suffered enough? I've suffered as much as all of you here, I've shared every hardship with all of you!" Galen said.

"Yes, and we love you for it," The Rebel soldier said. "It's just too many have died in this conflict," the other rebels began to agree with him after all the struggles they've gone through. "All we wish for is to just go and find a quiet place to settle, to find some sense of peace," the rebel said sadly.

Galen became understanding, "You're right, we should maybe find some place to go," as Galen was saying this, the rebels began to listen to Galen, "But you forgot one thing, soldier. There is no home anymore, because the Empire took it away from us! The Empire has done nothing but make all of our lives a living hell for years! Your simplicity for a home long ended when the Empire ravaged it to set up a little base for themselves! Do you not see?!" Galen said angrily. The rebels began to agree with Galen, "And you as well as I know, that as the years decline, and all your great victories fade it will always be remembered, you left this fight for our lives! I'd rather fight and die today, then live another day in this hell that I've lived in for the past two decades! Who will join me, WHO WANTS THEIR FREEDOM BACK!" Galen yelled. The rebels were silent, but then roared in agreement; Luke and everyone else was very impressed and moved by Galen's speech. At Endor they encountered some scout troopers, Galen, Luke and Leia by chasing them on speeder bikes. Galen sliced one's head off with his lightsaber and Luke managed to slice a scout trooper's speeder in half and the trooper crashed into a tree and exploded. In the process however, Leia disappeared. Galen and the others went searching for Leia, only to be caught in a trap by Ewoks. They were taken to their village where they found Leia. C-3P0 managed to talk to the Ewok people into helping them find the shield generator and they agreed. Luke walked away from a hut they were in and Galen followed him. Galen went to talk to Luke. "I know what you're doing Luke, and I'm going with you," declared Galen.

"Very well, but please try to let me talk to him."

"Why? Why do you care so much about him after what he did to you?"

"Because, Galen, there's good in him. I felt it, I can bring him back to the good side," said Luke.

"No, you can't. There's nothing left in him but evil. He killed the woman I loved and the closest thing to a father I ever had and made my life a living hell." said Galen.

"I know but you must be able to forgive him," implored Luke.

Galen started getting upset, "Don't talk to me like you're my master cause you're not," snarled Galen. "Very well you can go with me but please try to talk to him," said Luke. Leia walked in on Luke and Galen and Luke revealed to her that she is his twin sister and told her that he and Galen must face him and they left the village.

Galen and Luke met with Vader at the imperial base. As they walked Galen glared angrily at Vader. "Hello, Anakin," said Galen coldly.

"That name no longer has any meaning for me," said Vader.

"I don't give you shit what you call yourself, you're still the same man that slaughtered and butchered the Jedi and everyone I ever loved and made me into this. Did you think I would forget, did you think I would forgive. I will never forgive you…brother," said Galen mockingly and angrily.

Luke tried to reason with Vader but to no avail. Galen, Luke and Vader arrived at the throne room. Sidious turned his chair around and saw them. "Welcome young Skywalker I've been expecting you," said Sidious he then looked at Galen scowling at Sidious, Sidious laughed."The Ghost of the Jedi Order in my very presence," Sidious cockingly smiled.

"Sidious,you'll fucking die for what you and your little apprentice did to me," Galen replied angrily.

"I doubt it," Sidious then removed Galen and Luke's restraints. Vader gave Sidious Luke and Galen's lightsabers and placed them on the opposite sides of his chair. He then made Luke and Galen watched the battle up in space that the Rebels were fighting in. He baited Luke into striking him down; Luke summoned his saber and tried to kill Sidious but Vader stopped him Galen then summoned his lightsaber to strike at Vader and joined the fight. The two began fighting off against Vader though Luke tried to bring him back to the light Galen sought to kill him for all the pain Anakin had caused to him all those years ago fighting very aggressively. Luke knocked Vader down some stairs but Vader managed to get back up, "Obi Wan, has taught you well," Vader remarked.

"I will not fight you, father," Luke replied.

"Maybe you won't, Luke, but I will," Galen announced. Galen and Vader circled each other with their defenses up, "There's no escape from me this time, Anakin. Now I'm going to do what I should've done, twenty-three years ago!" Yelled Galen as he attacked Vader and the two locked blades with each other. They exchanged blows until Luke and Galen leapt onto a higher platform. Luke tried to reach out to his father, "Your thoughts betray you, father. I feel the good in you, the conflict."

"There is no conflict," Vader replied.

"Shut up, Luke, he's not your father anymore!" Galen yelled angrily.

"You underestimate the power of the Dark Side. If you will not fight, then you will meet your destiny," Vader declared as he threw his saber towards the support beams that were by Luke and Galen. The platform collapsed and Luke and Galen fell off it. Vader searched for Luke and Galen, "You cannot hide forever," declared Vader.

"I will not fight you," Luke replied.

"But I will, I'll kill you with my bare hands.

Then Vader looked into Luke's mind about his sister and taunted him by saying. "If you will not turn to the dark side then perhaps she will." Said Vader. However, Luke was able to restrain himself. Then Vader thought of turning his attention to Galen,"And you Galen I'll destroy you just like I destroyed your master, Cin Drallig. Oh he was so pathetic and weak, he fell so easily to me just like your precious, Xena." Galen began feeling anger and rage, "What a pity it was to waste such beauty she couldn't even stand a chance against me," mocked Vader. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH." screamed Galen as he came out and charged angrily at Vader. He kept exchanging blow after blow at Vader who was blocking his attacks but was getting pushed back by Galen's attacks, "I HAD A LIFE, A HOME UNTIL YOU CAME ALONG AND TOOK ALL OF IT AWAY FROM ME! Galen screamed as he kept striking atVader. They headed towards the middle of a walkway and Vader started feeling tired; he held his saber to block Galen's assault. Galen angrily bashed his saber down on Vaders as he did he saw flashes and images of Xena's smiling face. He broke through Vader's defense and cut off his hand. Vader yelled out in pain. Galen stood over Vader with his saber towards him, "You're through, Anakin. Forever." He then grabbed him by his collar and pulled him towards his face. He glared at Vader with fury in his eyes, "I've waited a long time." He then proceed to punch Vader in the face again and again. He poured out all his rage, all his anger into every punch; damaging Vader's mask. He punched him so hard that part of Vader's mask was damage to wear part of his face was showing. Galen glared at him, as he did, his eyes turned yellow. He activated his saber and slowly raised it above Vader who was looking at Galen with fear in his eyes. Galen screamed as he brought his saber down, but it was stopped by a green saber. Galen moved his saber from Luke who stood between Vader and Galen, "Galen don't, you can't let the Dark Side consume you.

This made Galen extremely angry "SHUT YOUR FACE SKYWALKER, YOU AND YOUR SELF RIGHTEOUS HEART YOU DON'T KNOW HOW THE FUCK I FEEL HOW COULD YOU?! YOUR TRAITOR OF A FATHER RUINED MY LIFE, HE TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME MY LOVE, MY MASTER, MY HOME EVERYTHING! HE MADE ME THIS WAY FOR YEARS I HAD NOTHING AND NOW I'M GONNA SEND HIM TO HELL WHERE HE BELONGS!" Screamed Galen.

"Galen please, I know my father wronged you and hurt you, but it wasn't all his fault it was Sidious he's the one who's to blame for your pain and suffering. I lost people I cared about too like my aunt and uncle. You did had something you had me, Han, Leia, Lando Chewie, all those people in the Alliance. You had us please Galen don't do it," implored Luke.

Galen wanted to kill him but found that after all these years of wanting to kill Anakin he realized he couldn't. He shut off his saber and his eyes turned back to normal, "You're right, I should've focused on Sidious this whole time,"

Galen and Luke and Galen faced Sidious."You failed your highness. I'm a Jedi, like my father and Galen before me," declared Luke. Sidious became angry, "So be it, you will not be turned, you will be destroyed," declared Sidious. He started blasting them with Force Lightning. Galen and Luke screamed with agony as they were blasted with lightning Galen couldn't die from it because he was immortal but the pain still hurt. Sidious stopped and Galen and Luke couldn't move. Sidious looked at Galen and smiled psychotically."This is too easy, almost as easy as killing…your parents," said Sidious, mockingly.

Galen's eyes widened at the realization as he lay weak on the ground. He slowly got back up,"What?"

"That's right, I killed your mother and father. And I enjoyed every single minute of it, they begged me for mercy, so I gave it to them, I ended their pathetic existence," said Sidious mockingly.

Galen started to swell with rage realizing he was the cause of everything bad that happened in his life, "You, mother, fucking, BASTARRRRRRD!" Galen screamed with anger as he charged at Sidious with his lightsaber out but Sidious blasted him back with Force Lightning and started blasting him and Luke. Luke looked at his father looking down at them, "Father please!" Begged Luke as him and Galen kept getting blasted with Force Lightning. Sidious paused for a moment, "Now young Skywalker, you will die," he turned to Galen, "And you…shall be my new apprentice."

Galen glared at Sidious, "Go…fuck yourself," Galen gritted.

Sidious continued blasting Force Lightning at Galen and Luke. As Vader saw it his eye widened and it shifted from yellow to blue and back to yellow. He began having flashbacks to all the great times he and Galen had together. He also thought about Luke, the son he didn't know existed and realized he was all that was left of Padme and realized Palpatine lied to him all these years and refused to see his and Padme's son die. His eye turned blue and looked at Sidious angrily; Vader lifted Sidious up with his one hand Galen was shocked as he witnessed Anakin throwing him in the reactor below them. Galen watched as Palpatine fell into the reactor and exploded, sending a wave of energy out in the throne room and then clearing up. Galen and Luke slowly got back up. Galen stood confused, "Anakin?"

Galen and Luke pulled Anakin away from the shaft Galen looked down into the shaft and said "That it is for my parents, my master and Xena you sick sadistic fuck," said Galen as he spit over where Sidious fell. Luke and Galen brough Anakin's body to the hanger bay on to the walkway of the imperial shuttle and he told Luke to take his mask off. Luke took his helmet off but Galen stopped him. "I'll do it," said Galen as he removed his helmet to see Anakin's face. Anakin's face was grey and burned and he began feeling sorry for Anakin; "Now go, leave me," Anakin insisted.

"No you're coming with us we won't leave you here, we have to save you," implored Luke.

"You already have, Luke. You were right, you were right about me. Tell your sister…you were right."He then turned to Galen, "Galen, I'm sorry for everything I did to you, your master, and to Xena." said Anakin and tears began filling his eyes.

Galen's eyes widened and tears began feeling tears coming down his face after hearing Anakin apologize to him, "Anakin…I forgive you," said Galen tearfully.

Anakin felt happy for Galen forgiving him; he then closed his eyes, laid back and died. Tears filled Luke and Galen's eyes; Galen grabbed Anakin's dead body and cried over him. Galen had finally at last made peace with Anakin.

Luke and Galen escaped the destruction of the second Death Star onboard the imperial shuttle with Anakin's body before it exploded. Galen and look went into the forest and made a funeral pyre for Anakin. Galen held a torch in his hand. "Find peace, my brother," said Galen as he lit the funeral pyre. He and Luke watched Vader's body burn. As they watched, tears began to fall down Galen's face and started having flashbacks to the good times he had with Anakin when they were kids, and during the Clone Wars and now his childhood friend was gone. Galen collapsed on his knees and began crying. Luke knelt to Galen, "Galen, what is it?"

"I failed them," said Galen tearfully, "When Xena died, I swore that I would make the Empire pay for what they did, that I would avenge them all, but I didn't."

"No, you didn't fail them. You avenged them by helping us destroy the Empire," said Luke as he put his hand on his shoulder and comforted him. "It's alright, he's free now it's all over," declared Luke and they watched Anakin's body burn.

Afterwards, they met up with Leia, Han and the others and celebrated the end of the Empire. Galen stood from a far distance seeing Luke interact with Leia and Han; suddenly, he felt a familiar presence. When he turned his eyes widened as he saw Obi Wan and Yoda as Force Ghosts. Then another ghost appeared beside Yoda and Galen's eyes widened, and tears fell down his face as he saw it was Anakin as he was when he was younger and who was now a Force Ghost. Galen walked close to Anakin and the two embraced each other. Luke looked to the distance and saw Obi Wan, Yoda, Anakin and Galen. He saw his father hugging Galen and smiled. After that, Galen and all his friends took a big picture together to remember the day when they at last won victory against the Empire. Wedge held Galen's datapad, Galen stood in between Luke and Leia and put his arms around them. Chewie and Han sat together alongside them were C-3P0 and R2 as well as Lando by their side. They smiled as Wedge took the picture. Galen at long last found a small measure of peace and was happy that everyone he knew was finally avenged.

Galen helped rebuild the Republic and the Jedi Order, helping Luke collect Jedi artifacts, knowledge and lore throughout the galaxy and took up his master's role as Battle Master of the new Jedi Order. A few years later, Galen who was now wearing gray Jedi clothing with the lining of his tunic black and wearing gray pants and brown boots was meditating. Suddenly, Luke called out to Galen, "Galen."

Galen opened his eyes, stood up and turned to look at Luke, "Yes?"

"There's someone who needs our help."

"Who?" Asked Galen.

"A Force sensitive," answered Luke.

Galen and Luke traveled to an imperial dreadnought, when they entered and traveled down the halls they were met with Dark Troopers. Galen smiled confidently, "Like killing some super battle droids," said Galen as he pulled out his lightsaber and he and Luke fought them all the way to the command deck. When they arrived they saw a couple of Mandalorians one of them Galen recognized, a former rebel fighter and Moff Gideon. They then took off their hoods. Galen looked at Bo and smiled, "Hello, Bo."

Bo was shocked as she took her helmet off, "Galen? Is that you? How do you still look the same as the last time I saw you?"

"Long story," Galen responded.

"Are you two Jedi?" The Mandalorain asked.

"Yes, we are." Luke reached his hand out to someone, "Come little one."

Galen looked to where Luke was looking and his eyes widened as he saw a little green creature who looked just like Yoda. Luke explained to him that the child needs to be trained. The Mandalorian said goodbye to the little green creature. Then the child walked up to Luke and Galen; then R2 appeared behind them. Galen lifted the little creature up and looked at him and tears began streaming down his face. The green creature touched one of Galen's hands and looked into his memories of when Galen was a child being taught by Yoda. Galen embraced him tightly,

"What's up with him?" The Mandalorain asked, confused.

"It's just that little one, he reminds him of a great person he once knew long ago," answered Luke.

Galen cleared his eyes and looked at the group, "May the Force be with you," said Galen as he and Luke went into the elevator with the child in Galen's hands.

On the planet they were on, Galen learned that the little green creature's name was Grogu and that he was part of the Jedi Order many years ago and disappeared on the night of Order 66. For two years, Galen and Luke helped Galen remember his Jedi training. Ahsoka also came by to visit during those years and Galen was so happy to see her because for a long time he thought she died on Malachor years ago. Soon, the Mandalorian came by to visit Grogu but was dismissed by Ahsoka. Luke offered Grogu two choices, the first taking a Beskar chian shirt that Mando's people made for him and allow him to return to the Mandalorian, or take Yoda's lightsaber and learn more about the way of the Jedi. Grogu however chose to be with Mando, Galen thought that maybe he should stay with them but Luke insisted that he went and Galen agreed with him.

For 30 years Galen helped out many people and trained many Jedi during that time Luke fell in love with a former Sith assassin named Mara Jade. The two got married and had a son named Ben Skywalker.But then tragedy struck Galen again when Han Solo's son Jacen Solo turned to the Dark Side and destroyed the new Jedi Order while a lot were slaughtered, a handful managed to escape throughout the galaxy. Galen tried to stop Luke from going into hiding but Luke wouldn't listen, blaming himself for what happened. Ben Skywalker left to help out the remaining Jedi and created a group to help out those that would be under attack from a new group known as The First Order. Han went back to smuggling and Galen was left alone with Leia and the newly formed Resistance for 6 years.

Eventually, he met Poe Dameron, a skilled pilot who wanted to make a name for himself and be remembered as one of the greatest pilots and leaders of his age just like Wedge Antiles. On a mission on the planet Jaku, Poe, Galen and BB-8 found Lor San Tekka. He gave them the piece of the map that led to Luke. All of the sudden, they were attacked by Stormtroopers. Poe put the map in BB-8. "Galen, get outta here and protect BB," said Poe.

"Poe no I can't leave you behind," begged Galen.

"Galen, go now!" Yelled Poe

Galen grabbed BB-8 and the two ran off into the desert. They traveled throughout the desert mountains all night until the sun slowly started to come up. Galen looked at some crashed Star Destroyers and it brought Galen back to the past. "Huh I remember this place, this is where the Empire finally died and went straight to Hell. But now they've returned but I'll send them back to hell," declared Galen. Galen and BB-8 walked through the desert until they were attacked by Scavengers one of them shot Galen with a stun gun and the electric blast knocked Galen out the scavengers tried to take BB-8. Suddenly, a girl came along and spoke to the scavenger in an alien language telling him to go away and the scavenger went away, the girl helped Galen wake up. "Hey, are you okay?" Asked the girl.

Galen felt disoriented as he woke up; his vision was blurry but when his vision cleared his eyes widened at the girl. She looked so beautiful the girl was also pretty stunned by how handsome he was. "Uhhh thanks," said Galen nervously. The girl helped Galen on his feet. "You're welcome," said the girl, feeling very shy.

"What's your name?" Galen asked.

"I'm Rey, Rey Carson," said Rey and smiled.

"My name's Galen, Galen Marek." said Galen as he reached his hand out to shake her hand, Rey took it and they shook hands.

Then Rey paused. "Wait, your Galen Marek? The Immortal Jedi? The Ghost of the Jedi Order?" said Rey, excitedly, "I had heard stories about you when I was just a child. You were one of the many people I admired."

"Well thank you," said Galen, smiling.

"What are you doing here?" Asked Rey.

"It's a classified mission," answered Galen.

"I see."

"Listen, we need some place to stay for a bit to rest until we can find some way off this planet. Do you mind helping us out? Galen asked.

"Of course," said Rey.

She led Galen and BB-8 to her home which was the wreckage of an AT-AT. While in her home, Galen told Rey stories about his time as a general in the Clone Wars as well as during the Galactic Civil War but he didn't tell her all of his past. Rey also told Galen about herself and of her family who she hoped would return. Rey began to be very interested in Galen by the sight of him as well as the kind of person he was; she smiled as Galen continued his stories. The next day, Galen and Rey were in the marketplace hoping to find some transport. Suddenly, they were attacked by gangsters Galen used his Tera Kasi fighting style while Rey used her metal staff. Galen blocked one of the gangsters' punches, twisted his arm, and punched it so hard it snapped like a twig. The gangster screamed in pain and Galen executed a spin kick to his face and knocked him out. Another one came towards him, he grabbed him and threw him to the ground and rapidly punched him in the face and knocked him out. Rey was able to handle most of them until one grabbed her from behind by pulling her staff to her neck and locking her in. Galen ran up to the person holding her and kicked him in the face with a side kick. Eventually the two of them took down the goons. "I'm impressed, you sure can fight," remarked Galen.

"Thanks," Rey said, smiling.

Then BB-8 spotted a guy wearing Poe's jacket, Galen and Rey chased after them and eventually Galen intercepted the thief by running in front of him and did a clothesline kick to his face, the thief fell to the ground in pain. "What's your hurry thief?" Rey demanded

The stranger was confused, "What, thief?"

"That was my friend Poe's jacket," Galen said angrily.

The stranger then remembered that name, "Poe, Poe Dameron right?"

"Yeah, that's right," answered Galen.

"Look, he was captured. I helped him escape. But our ship crashed, Poe didn't make it," the stranger said.

This made Galen and BB-8 upset.

Rey became curious about him, "So you're with the Resistance?"

The stranger paused, then he stood up, "Obviously, I'm with the Resistance, yeah I am with the Resistance."

Galen got a good look at him; he knew he wasn't part of the resistance cause he'd never seen him in it. He used the Force to look into his mind and in it, he saw that he was from the First Order. Galen angrily grabbed the stranger and pinned him to the wall, "You're lying. You're not with us, I've never seen you before. You are an imp."

Rey was shocked, "What?"

"Look I was part of them but I defected against them, how do you think I managed to help Poe escape?"

Galen was hesitant.

Rey reassured Galen, "Come on, let him go he's clearly defected against them," Rey insisted.

Galen released him, "Alright, but you better not screw with us," warned Galen. Suddenly they heard the sounds of TIE Fighters and they saw stormtroopers coming towards them. Galen looked at Finn angrily, "DId you send them here?!"

"No, it wasn't me, they're just here for the droid!" Answered Finn. Galen saw the TIEs flying closer to them. Ah shit RUN!" Yelled Galen and they all ran then all of the sudden TIE Fighters started shooting them Galen started deflecting their blasters back with the Force he got one but there was more coming. "If we're getting off this rock we need a pilot!" The stranger yelled.

"We've got one!" Yelled Galen and Rey.

"You two!?"

"Yes!"

The man noticed a ship, "Hey, what about that ship?!"

"That one's garbage," said Rey as she took a glance at the ship.

Galen took a glance at it but realized what ship that was. They tried to go for the ship in front of them but it got blown up. "The garbage will do," said Rey as they went for the other ship but Galen saw the ship they were going to was his dear friend Han's ship the Millennium Falcon; but he didn't tell Rey and the man. As they entered the cockpit Galen turned to Finn, "You, you man the turret we'll be in the cockpit," ordered Galen.

"You got it," the stranger agreed.

Galen turned to Rey, "You said your pilot huh? Well then, let's see what you got."

They flew in the Falcon and Finn manned the guns while Rey and Galen were in the cockpit. They flew the destroyed Star Destroyers and managed to fly inside of one and out the other side, Galen was impressed. Suddenly, the rotator of the turret the stranger was using was damaged, "Damn it, the mechanisms jammed!" He yelled.

"I have an idea?" Declared Rey.

She went up high into the air, turned off the engine and the Falcon tilted to an angel where the stranger shot him, "WHOOOOOO!" The stranger yelled in victory. They managed to escape Jakku and flew off into space. Galen and Rey began complimenting each other. "You were awesome Rey, you're as great of a pilot as I am." Said Galen happily. "Really thank you so much." Said Rey.

"How did you do that?" Asked Galen, impressed.

"I don't know, I just did it," Rey answered. "But you were great at this. I knew you were a great pilot but being just a co pilot you're incredible, figuring out where to go and to navigate that was amazing." Rey said happily.

"Oh thank you very much," Galen said smiling. As they were impressed by each other, Galen turned to the man. "You, you were an expert marksman there," said Galen, impressed.

"Thank you," said the stranger. "Who are you?"

"My name, is Galen Marek."

The stranger was surprised, "The Immortal Jedi?"

"Yes."

Finn turned to Rey, "And you are?"

"I'm Rey, Rey Carson."

"So what's your name if I may ask?" Said Galen.

"I'm Finn."

"Well, it's nice to meet you, Finn. Imp or not at least you're one that got his head on straight. Help us fight the resistance we can use a man with your experience in the First Order," Galen proposed.

Finn smiled, "Yeah, I suppose I can."

As Galen and Rey were repairing the Falcon, Galen began to have romantic feelings for Rey by her appearance and her voice and she reminded him of his long dead love Xena as they took a glance at each other for a moment, they smiled and went back to their work. Galen, Finn, Rey and BB8 got pulled into a ship and they hid hoping to not be found. But then, they were spotted. But by Galen's old friends Han Solo and Chewbacca. Galen was filled with so much happiness to see them again "Han, Chewie?" said Galen, surprised.

"Galen?" said Han.

"Han! I'm so happy to see you, ohh it's been so long!" said Galen happily as he hugged Han. Rey was surprised that that old man was Han Solo and Chewbacca and that Galen knew them.

Han was happy to see him too. "You're still good looking as always," said Han.

"Yeah, but you still got that charm of yours, even at your age," Galen remarked. He then looked at Chewie, "Chewie my furry buddy it's so great to see you!" said Galen and gave Chewie a hug. Chewie gave a happy roar and hugged Galen tight. Han told them about him and Chewie selling Rathtars to famous people, but Galen wanted Han to come back. "Please Han, we need you, Leia needs you," begged Galen. Han thought about it real hard, and he eventually agreed. All of the sudden, they heard the alarms go off. They looked at the camera's and saw some gangs who had some debts Han owed. "You three stay under here," said Han.

As they went under the floors Galen stopped to talk to Han, "Han." said Galen.

"What?" Asked Han.

Galen smiled, "It's just like the old days," said Galen, smiling. Han smiled at Galen's comment.

Galen and the others hid while Han tried to negotiate with them. Rey thought of closing the blast doors to trap hit some buttons but then they heard the sound of Rathtars. "Oh shit," whispered Galen. Rey realized it too and then Rathars started attacking from all sides, luckily Galen and his friends escaped on the Falcon.

They went to Takodana for help finding the Resistance. As Rey walked around the castle Unkar Plutt, the man who Rey worked for had found her. She pointed her blaster that she got from Han at him, but he snatched it out of her hand. Rey was stuck in a corner; then she heard Galen's voice, "Hey!" Unkar turned and saw him standing by them, "Why don't you back off and walk away," Galen said as he used the Force to pull the blaster to him, Rey smiled at Galen as he gave her back her blaster.

"I'm not afraid of you," declared Unkar. He began poking his finger at Galen's chest and said, "Half a Jedi isn't much-" Galen with quick speed sliced off the arm he was poking Galen with, it flew onto a nearby table. Galen swiftly placed his blade to Unkar's neck, "Now, turn around and walk away, while you still have an arm left," Galen warned. Unkar turned and ran away.

Rey looked at Galen,"Thank you," said Rey, smiling.

"You're welcome," Galen said as he smiled back at her.

Suddenly, Rey heard a strange voice down below and Galen followed her. "Rey what is it?" Asked Galen.

"I don't know, it's like something's calling me," she answered.

They came down and saw a chest Rey opened and inside was Anakin and Luke's lightsaber.Galen was both shocked and afraid to see it not only because he thought it vanished when Luke lost his hand but also because it was the same lightsaber that killed him and everything he loved all those decades ago. He began having flashbacks to when Anakin killed him with it as well as Xena and Drallig; he then felt a burning pain in his chest right where Anakin stabbed him. He collapsed on his knees. Rey saw Galen in pain, "Galen, are you okay?"

Galen slowly got back up, "Yeah, I'm fine. It's just that I haven't seen that saber in years," Galen said.

Galen and Rey both touched the lightsaber and then they started seeing visions of the past and the future. During the vision, Galen saw Rey as a child being taken by Unkar Plutt and seeing a shuttle take off the visions ended then Maz came in and told her the lightsaber called to her. Rey refused to take it and Galen followed her. "Rey, wait! Rey!" said Galen as he chased her. He then caught up with her in the middle of the woods. "Come on, we need you, Rey," insisted Galen.

"I don't know if I can do this, being a Jedi. I just don't know how I can be one," said Rey, doubtfully.

"I'll help you, trust me," said Galen as he reached his hand out to her. Rey smiled and took it.

All of the sudden, Galen sensed something dangerous close by. "Rey go," said Galen as he activated his lightsaber.

"No, I'll stay with you," Rey insisted.

"Rey go!" Demanded Galen.

From out of nowhere, Kylo appeared and attacked them Galen and Kylo got into a duel Rey watched astonished at Galen and his lightsaber skill; Galen kept fighting Kylo but then he force-freezed Galen, lifted him up and slammed into many trees. Galen then hit a tree knocked out . Back at the castle, the First Order attacked them. Luckily, the Resistance arrived to help. Galen woke up and saw that Rey was gone and on top of it he knew the Republic was gone as he sensed it happened. He started feeling rage again after all the decades he spent bringing it back, it was gone again. Leia arrived and Han was reunited with her. Galen and the others arrived at the hidden base where Galen was reunited with Poe. "Poe you're alive!" Said Galen, as he embraced him.

"It's so good to see you too."

Poe saw Finn with them, "It's so good to see you too, Finn. Thank you for completing my mission," Poe said smiling.

Galen and the others brought BB8 to the war chamber to show the map of Luke Skywalker, but sadly, it was incomplete Galen became frustrated they really needed Luke; Galen and the Resistance devised a plan to take down Starkiller Base by shutting the shields down and destroying the Oscillator. Galen and the others headed toward Starkiller base to rescue Rey and and shut down the shields they managed to capture Captain Phasma and forced her to shut down the shields. "You won't win, my troopers will storm this place until you're-" She then got round-house kicked in the face by Galen, "She talks too much," Galen said, sarcastically." Next they went to find Rey. They looked through all the interrogation chambers until they finally found her locked in an interrogation chair "Rey," said Galen happily.

"Galen," said Rey, happy to see him.

Galen pushed the button that released her restraints. The two hugged each other tightly, "I'm so glad you're okay," Galen said relieved

"Me too," replied Rey.

"Escape first, hug later," Han chimed in.

"Right," said Galen.

They tried to escape but realized the Resistance needed help so Han decided they should destroy the Oscillator with some charges Chewie had. Han, Chewie and Galen set up the Detonators while Rey and Finn opened the doors. Han saw Kylo out in the walkway; Galen tried to stop Han, "No Han, don't," Galen begged.

"I have to, he's my son," replied Han. He then gave Galen his blaster, "Take this."

Han tried to talk to Jacen to come back. Rey and Finn came in seeing Han trying to bring his son back to the light. At first, it seemed like it was succeeding, "I'm being torn apart. I want to be free of this pain. I Know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it. Will you help me?" Asked Jacen.

"Yes, anything," Han said, reassuring Jacen.

Jacen dropped his helmet and gave his saber to Han. Han placed his hand on it. Suddenly, the sun that Starkiller Base was near had been completely absorbed and darkness consumed the room. Galen began feeling nervous for Han. Shockingly, Kylo activated his saber and the blade pierced through Han's chest and out of his back. Galen was horrified at the sight of it; Chewie let out a sorrowful roar.

"NO! Screamed Rey, in horror.

Kylo pulled the blade out of Han's chest. Han then touched his son's cheek; he then tiled over the side of the railing and fell into the abyss below. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Screamed Galen, horrified. All of the sudden, Galen started having flashbacks to when his master Cin Drallig was murdered right in front of him and Xena dying in his arms. All the rage and vengeance he once had came back into him. Galen screamed with rage over the top of his lungs as his eyes turned yellow. He aimed Han's blaster at Kylo and shot him in his chest. He saw Chewie shooting stormtroopers and he joined in on the fight. He animalistically slaughtered the stormtroopers that were coming towards them. He let out a vengeful cry. He saw Rey, Finn and joined them. They tried to escape to the Falcon by going through the woods, but Kylo caught up with them. "We're not done yet," declared Kylo.

Angry and with tears in his eyes Galen glared at him. Rey did the same, "You're a monster," said Rey angrily.

"It's just us now Han Solo can't save you." Mocked Kylo. He then beat his blaster wound that Galen gave him. Rey tried to shoot him but Rey got force pushed. "REY!" Screamed Galen, shocked. Rey hit a tree and fell to the ground unconscious. Galen and Finn checked to see if she was okay; Galen held her in his arms, "Rey, please stay with me," he said worriedly.

"TRAITOR!" Screamed Kylo.

Find and Galen turned to Kylo and activated their sabers. Enraged, Galen and Finn screamed as they charged straight at Kylo; an epic fight ensued. Finn and Kylo got some hits at each other until Finn got disarmed and had his back sliced up and fell to the ground, unconscious. Galen berserkly yelled and charged at Kylo; the two locked blades. "I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" Screamed Galen. They disengaged and Galen tried to break through his defense but Kylo broke through Galen's defense and Force freezed Galen, lifted him up and used a Force pushed that sent Galen tumbling over the ground and was impaled through his back and out of his chest by a tree branch. Galen began puking out blood but Galen didn't die because of his immortality and instead lost consciousness. All seemed hopeless as Kylo tried to reach for Anakin's lightsaber with the Force. The saber flew toward him but it flew past him and it was grabbed by Rey. Rey and Kylo had an epic fight, but Rey ended up getting overwhelmed. Their sabers were locked but Kylo moved his blade to the right and slashed at Rey's leg. Rey screamed in pain as she fell to the ground clutching her wounded leg. Kylo stood over her attempting to deal the finishing blow, then the ground started cracking beneath them and split them apart. Rey saw Finn unconscious and was sad. Chewie arrived in the Falcon to save them. Chewie grabbed Finn and brought them into the Falcon. Rey then remembered Galen; she limped to where Galen was thrown and was horrified to see Galen lifeless on a tree branch. Tears began rolling down her face believing he was dead; as she walked away, a hand grabbed her, "Wait," said a voice softly. Rey was shocked and turned and was horrified to see that Galen was still alive. "Oh my Force, you really are immortal," said Rey horrified.

"Help…me," he whispered.

Rey grabbed onto Galen's hand and pulled Galen grunted in pain as he slightly pulled from the tree branch; Rey pulled again and Galen gargled in pain as he fell off the branch, blood puking from his mouth; he fell to the ground. Rey put his arm over her shoulder and tried to bring him to the ship. As they moved, Rey screamed in pain as she felt a lot of pressure placed on her wounded leg and collapsed to the ground with Galen beside her. Chewie saw them and brought them both on the Falcon. Chewied placed Galen on the medical bed. Rey opened Galen's shirt to see the wound. Miraculously, she saw the wound heal itself. Galen gasped for air as he felt life in him and breathed heavily. "Galen, are you okay?"

"Yeah."

"I'm going to go check on Finn," as she began to walk away.

Galen then grabbed Rey's hand, "Wait," he said. He looked up at the ceiling with a shocked and sad realization in his expression, "Han, he's dead," Galen said as he tearfully looked at Rey.

Rey tried holding back her tears but failed and her expression turned to sadness, "I'm sorry Galen, I'm so sorry." Rey said as she embraced Galen to comfort him. Galen cried on her shoulder knowing that his long time friend Han, was dead.The Resistance was able to destroy Starkiller Base thanks to Poe firing afterwards Galen sat in his room on the Millennium Falcon and looked at the picture him and the others took together decades ago and Galen's tear fell on Han's face and then he started to cry Rey came in to see him and he told her "Go away Rey you don't how much pain I'm in!" Rey hesitated but came in anyway. "I'm not going." Said Rey then Galen realized he needed some comfort and cried in Rey's arms. Afterwards, They went back to the Resistance base and R2 finally awoke. He revealed he had the rest of the map this whole time BB8 joined his piece to the missing piece of the map to Luke and found him. Galen realized if R2 had awoken the first time they showed up they would've found Luke and Han would still be alive; he then angrily kicked R2, "YOU STUPID FUCKING TRASH CAN YOU HAD THE REST OF THE MAP THIS WHOLDE TIME WHY DIDN'T YOU TURN ON WHEN HAN WAS HERE IT'S YOUR FAULT IF YOU HAD TURNED ON WHEN WE SHOWE UP, HAN WOULD STILL BE ALIVE!" Screamed Galen. R2 tried to fight him then he started kicking him some more but some Resistance soldiers restrained him soon after. Afterwards, they held a funeral for Han. As they were giving their eulogies, Galen swore vengeance against Kylo and the First Order just like he did to the Empire when he lost his master and Xena. After the funeral, Rey came in to see him. "Galen, are you okay?" Rey asked.

Galen snapped at Rey, "DOES IT LOOK LIKE I'M OKAY?! MY FRIEND IS DEAD AND THAT PIECE OF SHIT SON OF HIS MURDERED HIM! I'LL KILL THEM, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM! AND NOT JUST KYLO BUT THE STORMTROOPERS AND ALL THE OTHER IMPERIAL PIECES OF SHIT! THEY'RE LIKE ANIMALS, SO I'LL SLAUGHTER THEM LIKE ANIMALS, I HATE THEM!" Screamed Galen Rey realized he needed to be alone and left him with his thoughts. Galen, Rey, R2, and Chewie traveled to AhchTo on the Falcon and managed to find Luke. Galen walked up to Luke, furious. Luke stood confused, "Galen?"

Galen then punched Luke in the face so hard he fell to the ground "WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU?!" Luke explained that he came to this island to die and explained how Kylo turned on Luke and destroyed his temple along with his students 6 years ago. Rey told Luke she came here to be trained as a Jedi. Luke decided to train her a bit. Galen stood by with resentment toward Luke. One night, Galen was in a hut sleeping, then began having nightmares and saw Kylo killing Han; he awoke when he felt Kylo's presence. Galen and Luke went into Rey's hut and found her and Kylo touching hands Galen became filled with rage, "STOOOP!" He yelled as he used the Force to destroy the Hut she was in. Rain began pouring down on all three of them."WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Galen said angrily.

Rey asked Luke, "Is it true? Did you try to murder him?"refused to answer her Rey attacked and had him cornered when she turned on her lightsaber. Eventually Luke revealed what happened. When he looked into Jacen's mind he saw a vision of Ben destroying the Jedi and everything. He grabbed and activated his lightsaber to kill him while he was sleeping. But Luke stopped himself, realizing what he was doing was wrong. But then Jacen woke up and saw his uncle with his lightsaber out and grabbed his own Luke tried to stop him and explain himself but failed as Jacen collapsed the hut on top of him. Galen was shocked after what Luke had told them both and it was then he started to realize it wasn't R2's fault it was Luke's if he hadn't tried to kill Jacen in his sleep the Jedi Order would still thrive and Han would still be alive and then started having flashbacks to when Han died. Raged and tears filled his eyes and screamed with rage and charged straight at Luke and started pounding his face and he started to Force Choke him he blamed Luke for everything that has happened including Han's death. "You did this. The whole Republic is dead because of you. THE JEDI ARE DEAD, BECAUSE OF YOU! HAN IS DEAD BECAUSE OF YOU!" Yelled Galen. Galen's eyes slowly started to turn yellow. Rey grabbed Galen by the arm realizing he was killing him, "Galen stop!" Galen pulled his arm away from Rey and backhanded Rey in the face and knocked her to the ground with rage and fury in his eyes she begged him to stop, "Galen, I know you're in pain but this isn't you!"

"THIS IS ME! IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN I JUST DIDN'T WANT TO SEE IT! I AM WHAT HIS WHOLE FUCKING FAMILY CREATED! Galen yelled as he kept choking Luke.

"Stop, please. For me," Rey begged.

Galen glared at Luke angrily then released him. Luke dropped to the ground coughing. Galen's eyes turned brown again. Galen screamed at "I TRUSTED YOU AS I TRUSTED YOUR FATHER AND YOU BETRAYED ME JUST LIKE HE DID YOU TWO TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME. I SHOULD'VE LEFT YOUR ASS ON TATOOINE!"

"Luke failed Jacen by thinking his choice was made, it wasn't. There's still good in him, if we can bring him back to the light this can turn the tide this could be how we win," said Rey.

"Are you outta your fucking mind? Do you have any idea what he's done to this galaxy and what he did to Han?!"

"Yes but I have to try."

"Fine, then I'm going with you," Galen declared. Galen turned to Luke "You're dead to me, even more than your father." Galen and Rey went into the Falcon and headed for the imperial Dreadnaught, where Kylo and Snoke were. Rey and Galen allowed themselves to be handcuffed. Kylo escorted them into the elevator. While they were in the elevator, Rey tried to reach out to him, "I feel the conflict within you, it's tearing you apart. When we touched hands I saw your future, just the shape of it but solid and clear," she moved closer to Kylo which made Galen concerned, "You will not bow before Snoke. You'll turn, I'll help you, I saw it."

"I saw something too," said Kylo. "Because of what I saw I know you will be the one to turn, you'll stand with me." He turned to Galen, "And you…will be locked away and rot in a cell."

Galen angrily headbutted Kylo in the face, pinned him to the wall and proceeded to beat his face with his handcuffed hands, "DIE YOU PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT! DIE! DIE! DIE!"

Then Kylo Force pushed Galen into the opposite side of the elevator and Force freezed him in his place. When they arrived at the throne room Galen grabbed Rey by the arm and walked her to him while pulling Galen behind with the Force.

Snoke saw Galen behind him and laughed, "The mighty Immortal Jedi."

"Snoke," snarled Galen.

"You don't need those," Snoke said as he removed Galen and Rey's restraints, but one Praetorian guard held him with his blade towards Galen's neck. He mocked Rey by showing him the Resistance struggling to escape. This fueled Galen's rage. He then began interrogating her with the Force, penetrating into her mind to see where Luke was. He lifted her up in the air and Rey grunted in pain. Galen became scared for Rey's safety, "No, stop it!" He yelled as he struggled to break free from the Praetorian guard restraining him. Rey then screamed in pain. Galen's eyes suddenly turned yellow and his fearful expression turned into an angry rage ful one, "I SAID STOOOOP!" Galen cried out as he released a massive Force Repulse that disintegrated the guard holding him and launched some of the others guards back and caused Kylo to fly into the wall and get knocked out. It also stunned Snoke so hard that he lost concentration. Rey began to fall to the ground. With quick speed, Galen caught her and then charged straight at Snoke and stabbed him through the chest with his lightsaber. Snoke was shocked as he felt the saber impale through him. Galen screamed in anger, pulled his saber out of Snoke's chest and sliced through his neck with quick speed. At first, it seemed like nothing happened. Then Snoke's head slowly slid off his neck and rolled onto the floor, even the top half of his throne was sliced in half. Galen let out an angry cry. He saw Rey and helped her to her feet, "Rey, are you alright," said Galen.

Rey was uncomfortable at Galen's eyes being yellow, but she reassured him, "Yes."

Galen saw the Praetorian guards preparing to attack them. He turned to Rey, "Get behind me." As they went back to back he glared angrily at the Praetorians, "COME ON! WHO ELSE WANTS SOME?!" The guards attacked the two of them. Rey was able to manage to stand her ground against some of the guards while Galen viciously attacked them. He sliced one guard horizontally in half with his lightsaber and kicked his dismembered body at the other guards, knocking them back. Galen looked at the dead guard's spear and kicked it up to his hand and twirled it in his hand. He glared at the guards with his yellow eyes and pointed the spear at them, "Who's next?" Galen said, viciously. The guards charged at Galen. Galen deflected all of their attacks with his lightsaber and the praetorian's spear. He executed a counter attack by stabbing one of them in the chest with the spear then cutting his head off with his lightsaber. One came at him and he stabbed him through the chest with his saber and stabbed his head, pinned it to the floor with the spear and pulled it out. Galen checked on Rey who seemed to be managing. The praetorian guard closest to him attacked and he deflected all of his strikes with his saber and spear and sliced him in half with both of his weapons. He went to check on Rey who had taken down all the ones she was fighting, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah."

Suddenly, he sensed the last Praetorian Guard in front of them who was far away and began to charge at them Galen glared angrily at him, twirled his spear raised it and threw it so hard that it went flying extremely fast and impaled the Praetorian guard's head. The guard fell to the floor, dead. Galen ran up to the dead guard, pulled the spear out and began to angrily stab him repeatedly with it. Rey started to get concerned and tried to stop him, "Galen stop it's over! GALEN, STOP!" Rey yelled.

Galen stopped, shook his head and slowly got back to his senses. His yellow eyes reverted back to brown. He looked at Rey who had a concerned look on her face and reassured her, "It's okay, Rey. I'm okay," Galen said. He looked at Kylo unconscious. Anger began to boil within him, "He won't be," Galen snarled as he walked towards him activating his lightsaber to kill him.

But Rey held him back, "Galen, don't," Rey insisted.

"I have to do this, for Han," Galen replied.

"We have to go, Galen. There'll be more troopers on the way," said Rey.

Galen was conflicted; but knew Rey was right. He glared at Kylo angrily, "One day you vile piece of shit, one day I will personally teach you a lesson you will never, FORGET!" Galen yelled, angrily. Galen and Rey escaped the dreadnought and headed towards the planet Crait where the Resistance was based. Galen reunited with Finn who was back on his feet and his new friend Rose Tico. They were cornered with a squad of AT-AT's marching toward them. All seemed lost, until Galen felt a familiar presence; he turned and saw a hooded figure walk down the steps. The figure removed his hood and it was Luke Skywalker. "Luke," Galen said with happiness. He embraced Luke, "You came back."

"Yes I've come to face him," declared Luke.

"I'll help you," Galen replied.

"No, you must help the Resistance escape," demanded Luke.

"That piece of shit killed Han he has to pay," Galen snarled.

"Think about what Han would've wanted you to do right now," said Luke.

Galen thought for a moment, he wanted to kill Kylo but he knew deep down that helping the Resistance was the right thing to do. Moments after they escaped Crait Galen sensed Luke dying on Crait.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

On the Falcon, Galen ran into his room and started throwing, kicking and smashing things across the room and screamed with rage at the top of his lungs. Soon after, Galen sat on the floor looking at the picture he took with Han, Luke and everybody else. Tears filled his eyes and he started crying. For a year, Galen fell into a deep depression. In a dream, he saw himself back in the Jedi Temple during Order 66 he saw his master and tried to run towards him his master told him, "Master I'm here to help," said Galen. But it was too late, Drallig was stabbed in the back by Anakin. "NOO!" Galen screamed. Galen fought Anakin but was impaled through the chest.

Suddenly, he heard his master's voice. "Our blood is on your hands, my old padawan," Drallig said as he was lying on the ground.

Galen felt fear and denial even when he was impaled, "No, no it wasn't my fault."

"Not your fault?" A voice chimed in.

Galen turned and saw Xena on the ground with her saber wound through her chest. She looked at Galen angrily, "You could've told the Council about Anakin and Padme. You could've stopped all of this but you didn't."

Galen didn't believe what she was saying, "No, I was only keeping their promise."

"A promise that led to my death," Xena replied.

"Yes, Galen," said Anakin. Galen looked at Anakin as he began talking, "You're nothing, a failure, a weakling," Anakin said as he thrusted his saber deeper through Galen's chest. Suddenly, his face began to morph. Galen looked in horror as Anakin's face morphed into Vader's mask. "You are no hero," declared Vader.

Galen screamed "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Then he woke up breathing heavily, his hair had grown longer and he had a grizzled beard. He looked into a drawer and grabbed something out of it. As he opened his hand it was revealed to be the proposal ring he was going to give to Xena; he began to think of a scenario in his head of what could've been.

Galen and Xena walked through the Jedi Halls. "Wow, I can't believe that Palpatine was the Sith lord we were looking for this whole time," Galen said.

"Yes, it's a good thing that Mace Windu took him down now the galaxy is free from Palpatine's control," Xena replied.

"Yes, and on top of that, Padme has given birth to twins. I'm sure the council will allow it given that Anakin fulfilled the prophecy," Galen said.

"Yes, the future has become so bright that's all I've been thinking about lately…and about us," Xena said as she placed her hands on top of Galen's.

Galen smiled. "And what are your thoughts, Xena?"

"Galen, I love you, I wanna be with you. To wake up beside you, to fight with your enemies and laugh with your friends. I'm sorry if that's blunt, that's just how I feel."

"I feel the same way, which is why I want to ask you one thing."

Galen then got down on one knee. Xena's expression became surprised and tears came down her face as she realized what Galen was doing; Galen pulled out the ring from his pouch. "Xena Baniko…will you marry me?"

Xena began crying tears of joy; she cleared her throat. "Yes! Yes!" She said as she wrapped her arms around Galen with so much joy, Galen wrapped his arms around her as well. He then placed the ring on Xena's finger, she smiled at Galen and the two kissed.

Weeks later, Galen stood on an altar wearing ceremonial white Jedi robes; Anakin was his best man wearing the same kind of clothing while also wearing a white glove over his cybernetic arm. Cin was also on Galen's side. Xena wore a beautiful wedding dress; she had her hair loose and had flowers on her head; on her side were Ahsoka Tano and Zim Cicada. Yoda was the one who was marrying the two. Galen and Xena looked at each other with so much joy. Yoda announced Galen and Xena as husband and wife and the two kissed. The Jedi applaud them as well as Obi Wan who was holding Luke and Padme who was holding Leia. Galen smiled, feeling so happy.

Reality began sinking in for Galen; sadness began to fill his heart and tears began streaming down his face. He then began to cry and placed the ring to his forehead. Suddenly, he heard Rey coming into his room. He quickly put away the ring in a well good place to hide. Rey entered his room. "Galen, I need your help. Teach me the ways of the Force."

"Leave me alone," Galen bitterly replied.

Rey understood that he was still saddened by the loss of Han and Luke. "Galen, I know what you've been through." Galen snapped and pinned Rey against the wall with one arm and screamed "You have no idea, what I've been through,"

"Galen, you said that you would help me to become a Jedi, you said that," said Rey.

Galen then remembered him telling Rey that he would help her become a Jedi, "Yes, Yes I remember. Very well I'll train you. Besides, you wield that saber like a child."

For five years Galen taught Rey everything his master taught him. Rey became a skilled dualist and hand to hand fighter. She even learned more about the Force from Galen and the ways of how to use it such as to lift objects and to influence the weak minded. Galen wore black Jedi clothes and a glove over his right arm with Dura Steel knuckles over the glove. Afterwards, Galen and the Resistance heard a message with a voice that he believed to be dead. "No, it can't be," Galen said, horrified and in denial. It was Darth Sidious back from the dead Galen grew enraged because he thought Anakin had killed him decades ago and realized the person that killed his family was back. "No, NOOO!" Galen yelled as he threw a chair aside and stormed out of the room. Rey became concerned for Galen and followed him from a far distance. Rey went to the Millenium Falcon and found Galen sitting in the main room. "What's the plan?" She nervously said.

"There's only one, and that's me going to Exegol…alone."

Rey was shocked. "Galen, you can't do this by yourself, let me Finn and Poe come with you to find the Wayfinder."

"No."

Galen took a deep breath and began to become sentimental towards Rey. "You know Rey, when I first met you, I thought you were the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I was alone for so long all I had was an endless battle and searching for vengeance for a time until I thought I finally had it. My life was endless darkness until I met you and you've become my one bright light. You mean so much to me, Rey. To help me remember who I used to be." Galen put his non gloved hand over Rey's cheek. "What I'm trying to say is… I love you, Rey. I've always loved you since the day we met on Jakku years ago. I must go to Exegol and end this."

As Galen got up and walked away, Rey stood up. "Galen, please let me help you."

"I have to do this alone, nobody else is gonna die because of me."

Galen began to walk down the hall to the exit ramp. "Galen, please stay here with me, stay here with me." Rey said as she chased Galen down the hall and grabbed his non gloved hand. It caught Galen's attention and looked down at Rey touching his hand. Rey saw it and slowly let go of his hand Galen and Rey looked at each other deeply; Rey's expression changed to sadness and looked down at the floor not wanting Galen to see her cry with tears in her eyes. She worried for Galen's safety; Galen raised her chin up with his non gloved hand and saw her sad face, her tears streaming down her face. He wiped the tear from Rey's eye with his non gloved hand. They both intimately looked into each other's eyes then they slowly moved closer and kissed. Rey wrapped her arms and legs around Galen as they kissed deeper. Galen undid her hair and they bumped into walls of the Falcon. They kept kissing as they went into Galen's room on the Falcon. They began taking each other's clothes off and started having sex. As they made love, they looked at each other for a moment; Galen placed his hand on Rey's cheek and they kissed and continued making love.

Afterwards, Galen and Rey were laying on Galen's bed with the sheets covering them. Galen looked at Rey who was fast asleep and had her hair undone; he brushed her hair behind her ear and caressed her cheek. He then laid on his back and closed his eyes.

As he slept he heard Xena's voice. "Galen." Galen opened his eyes and found himself in some strange void wearing his old Jedi clothing and his beard was gone and his hair was how it was before; he looked and from a distance he saw a silhouette the figure stepped out, it was Xena. Galen became overjoyed, "Xena." He embraced her tightly. "Xena I'm so happy you're safe I swear I won't let anything happen to you."

Xena coldly replied. "It's already too late."

Galen's expression turned to confusion as he looked at her his eyes widened and his expression turned to horror as he saw that she was a zombie and was trying to attack Galen. He pushed her off and tried to run away. He stopped as he saw more undead people, they were everyone Galen cared about his master, his father, mother, Han, Luke, Anakin, Obi Wan and all the Jedi and Rebels that Galen knew. They all began to attack Galen, he took out his lightsaber to cut them down but they soon reassembled themselves and piled on top of Galen. He tried to break free from them; as he looked up he saw Palpatine floating above him laughing maniacally. Galen's expression turned to anger. "NO, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He screamed as he was pulled underneath the undead. His hand then began to turn rotten; suddenly, he emerged from the pile of the undead as one of them, his face and flesh rotten with his eyes glowing green.

"NOOOOOOOOOO!" Galen screamed as he awakened and sat up sweating, panting heavily and scared out of his mind.

Rey woke up from Galen's yell and saw that he was shakened. She sat up covering herself and reaching her hand out to Galen,"Galen? Galen? Galen, what's wrong?"

Galen was shaken by Rey touching his face; soon he calmed himself, "I just had a nightmare, Rey."

"Was it the Clone Wars?"
"No."

"Then what was it?"

"It was everyone I ever knew, but they were walking corpses. They all tried to kill me and tear me apart, and as they were doing it I saw him."

"Who?"

"Sidious."

Rey calmed Galen down by kissing him on the lips. Rey and Galen layed down on the bed, "Galen, it's alright it was just a bad dream."

Galen then noticed a scratch on Rey's arm. "What happened there?"

"Oh, one of those praetorian guards wounded me with his weapon."

"Pfft that's a scratch, you want me to kiss it to make it better?" Galen then kissed Rey's scar, Rey laughed as Galen did it; "Besides that's nothing compared to the scratches I got. He then turned on his side as he did, he showed Rey two lightsaber slashes over his back. Rey sat there surprised and touched his scars , "Are those lightsaber burns?"

"Yeah, got 'em from this big Kaleesh cyborg named General Grievous."

"General Grievous?"

"Yeah, and he was big the guy wielded like four lightsabers Rey, four fucking lightsabers at once. He sliced me right here." Rey was amazed by Galen's description of Grievous. Rey then put her fingers on a scar on his abdomen, "What about that one?"

"I got this from a fight with a sith called Darth Maul."

"Who was he?"

Galen was hesitant. "He was Palpatine's first apprentice, he's the reason everything fell apart. If it wasn't for him none of this wouldn't have happened to me."

"What do you mean?"

"He killed a Jedi Master who was meant to train Anakin, but Anakin got his padawan Obi Wan Kenobi instead all because of a promise Obi Wan made to his master as he died."

Rey was saddened by what Galen was talking about. "What was Obi Wan's master's name?"

"Qui Gon Jinn. Don't worry he took Qui Gon's life, I took his head in return."

Rey was shocked about it. She looked and saw a scar on his right arm. "And that one?"

"That I got from Qui Gon's master, his name was Count Dooku. He was also Palpatine's apprentice."

"What happened to him?"

"Anakin cut off his head."

"Anakin Skywalker, killed him?"

"Yes."

Rey then looked at a scar where his heart was. "What about that one?" Rey asked.

Galen hesitated to talk about it. "No, I don't want to talk about that one."

"Galen, please just tell me."

Galen became silent. She then asked Galen "What did you mean when you told Luke he betrayed you just like his father did?"

"Because that's what happened. I don't wanna talk about it."

"Please Galen, just tell me."

Galen paused then sighed "I was…only a child. And a happier one in so many ways." He then reflected back to when he was 8 years old running around the halls in the morning. "Morning Master Windu!" said Galen.

"Morning Galen," Mace replied, smiling.

Galen was on his way to his training. Then he ran into his father's friend Master Zim Cicada. "Morning Master Zim." said Galen.

Zim replied "Ah hello Galen on your way to go training with Drallig?" "Yeah," said Galen, excited. He saw Xena with him. Galen smiled. "Hi Xena," greeted Galen..

"Hi Galen." Xena replied.

Zim knelt to Galen's height and told Galen "You know you look so much like your father."

Galen replied "I know my master tells me that."

"Well I don't want you to be late, good luck."

"Master Drallig always says there's no such thing as luck," said Galen. "Exactly." said Zim, smiling. He and Galen then high five each other. Galen went off to do some training with Drallig.

Afterward, he heard from Cin that Qui Gon and Obi Wan were back and they brought them a new force sensitive child powerful with the Force he got excited and him and his master came to the entrance and saw Qui Gon Jinn and his Padawan Obi Wan and with them was a 9 year old Anakin. "Hi Master Qui Gon. Hi Obi Wan," said Galen.

"Hello Galen, good to see you." said Qui Gon.

"Yes Good to see you." said Obi Wan."

"Good to see you too." Galen said, happily.

Qui Gon looked at Cin."Hello, Cin."

"Hello, Qui Gon." replied Cin.

Galen looked at Anakin and said "Who's this?"

Qui Gon answered "Galen, this is Anakin Skywalker. He's from Tatooine. He will be trained here to be a Jedi like you. Anakin Skywalker, meet Jedi Battlemaster Cin Drallig, he will be your lightsaber instructor and this is his Padawan, Galen Marek."

Galen reached his hand out to introduce himself "Hi, I'm Galen, Galen Marek."

Anakin grabbed his hand and said "Hi, I'm Anakin, Anakin Skywalker." Galen said "You know I think you and I will be best friends. I can show you a lot here at the Jedi temple."

Qui Gon smiled and replied "Yes, but first we must discuss this with the Council."

"Okay," Replied Galen. "Bye Anakin, it was good to meet you."

"Nice meeting you too." said Anakin, smiling and Galen smiled back.

The flashback faded, Rey had a surprised look, "You knew Anakin Skywalker when you were kids?"

"Yes. He was a good friend, I thought of him as my brother."

He went on to discuss the events of the Battle of Naboo and the death of Qui Gon Jinn at the hands of Darth Maul who after that was sliced in half by Obi Wan. He told Rey how Qui Gon made Obi Wan promise to train Anakin so he can bring balance to the Force like it was foretold. He then talked about Qui Gon's funeral.

Galen was standing in front of his master with Cin's hands over Galen's shoulders to comfort him Galen felt much sadness for Qui Gon. He looked at Anakin and said "Hey don't worry Anakin, he's become one with the Force he'll always be with you in here." And pointed at Anakin's heart Anakin felt a bit of comfort for Galen and gave him an appreciative look. Galen and all the Jedi stood on the steps during the Naboo Celebration. Galen stood in front of his master while Anakin stood in front of Obi Wan. Xena and Zim were also there. Galen looked at Anakin who was now wearing Padawan clothing, his hair was short and had a padawan braid. Anakin looked at Galen and Galen gave him a thumbs up on Anakin's new look. Anakin smiled and the two of them did a fist bump. Anakin looked somewhere else while Galen looked at Xena who was standing right next to him. Xena looked and saw Galen looking at her; Galen smiled at her and she smiled back. Rey was amazed, "Wow, that must've seemed like such a great time. What was your master, Cin Drallig like?" Rey asked.

"He was like a father to me," Galen answered as he flashed back to a moment of his training with Cin.

Galen was 10 years old and was sparring with Drallig on a distant forest planet. They were practicing some Makashi attacks and Galen was doing good against him. "You improve greatly," said Cin, impressed by Galen's skills..

"Oh do you think so? Maybe I'll be a Jedi sooner than later?" Galen asked as he struck Cin who blocked all of his thrusts and swings and spun around behind Galen's back and pointed his saber behind Galen's neck.

"No, I'm just being gracious." said Cin, sarcastically. Then he and Galen got into Makashi stances"Now remember, don't think. Feel the Force to anticipate my movements," said Cin as he laid attacks on Galen who blocked his attacks but then Cin broke into his defenses and had his lightsaber up to his neck. Galen went on the offensive, but Cin blocked all his attacks then spun behind Galen's attack and pushed him back Galen got frustrated. "Galen," said Cin, strict. "What you give up to your enemy in defeat is everything. Don't let your emotions get the better of you."

"I know Master. And at that point I'll either be dead or just turned to the Dark Side, come on," Galen insisted.

"Not just turn to the Dark Side Galen, you'll become a Sith." Replied Drallig and kept attacking Galen and Galen blocked his master's strikes with Soresu and then Galen said "Yeah Master I know about the Sith. They're just like us except they think about themselves and not others like we do and always crave power, yes?"

Drallig replied "It is what drives the Sith to kill us and what forces us to be smarter and better than them."

"I understand, Master Drallig," said Galen, annoyed. He then charged straight at Drallig

"You do?" Drallig asked. He moved his hand slightly with the force and made Galen's leg slip to the right, tripped and hit the floor. "Good," said Drallig.

Galen got up "I slipped." But he knew that wasn't true; he was making an excuse.

"Galen, listen soon you'll have to fight in a real duel. It's time I teach you some Djem So techniques," Cin declared.

"Alright, now that's my style." said Galen, with excitement. Galen got into Form V stance and so did his master but then his master deactivated his lightsaber, got out of his stance and turned his back to him "Now attack me," ordered Cin.

Galen stood confused, "But you've lowered your defenses and got your back to me."

"It's not always about strength, Galen. Attack me." Insisted Cin.

Galen hesitated then charged straight at his master with a downward strike Cin dodged and activated his lightsaber so fast and pinned it on top of Galen's "It's about the manipulation of the mind," said Cin and then Galen moved his saber on top of Cin's blade and Cin finished saying "As well as the body."

"Yeah but now I got you pinned." said Galen, confidently.

Cin laughed, "Do you?"

Galen was confused then Cin's Saber slipped from under Galen's then spun around and started to swing his saber near Galen's neck and stopped it so fast that Galen couldn't see it. Galen was shaken by it and surprised by the move Drallig made. Drallig told Galen "Remember well my young Padawan, properly executed this move is unstoppable."

"Yes, I'll remember that master," said Galen.

Cin moved his saber away from Galen's neck, deactivated it and put it away, "Good," Cin said firmly. He then put his hand on Galen's shoulder and told Galen something he'll never forget, "Always remember one thing, in the end of a duel, there can be only one," Cin said, smiling.

"Yes, master," said Galen.

"That's good. That's enough for today, it's time to eat," declared Cin.

"Very well, master," responded Galen as the two walked together to prepare their meals.

.Rey started laughing, "Did you really slip?" Asked Rey.

"No he just used the force to sweep my leg," said Galen, smiling. Galen went on to tell Rey of the Battle of Geonosis and his time as a General in the Clone Wars and when he earned the rank of Jedi Knight and the title of Warrior Master during those 3 years. and Rey was amazed by what Galen was telling her. She then asked Galen, "So tell me, how did you get that scar right where your heart is?"

Galen was hesitant; but then proceeded to tell her, "It was during the end of the Clone Wars and it was around this time that Padme Amidala Anakin's wife was pregnant with Luke and Leia, I was in the meditation chamber meditating and strengthening my connection to the Force. Then I felt Master Mace Windu die. When I opened my eyes, I heard the sound of a gunship behind me. It blasted me into the wall and knocked me out. When I woke up, I came out of the room and saw my people getting gunned down by Clones. Then, I saw my master fighting a hooded figure with a lightsaber. I hoped my master was going to win until I saw him get killed, right in front of me. I charged at him to fight him, until I saw the person that killed…was the man I considered my own brother."

"Anakin," Rey said shocked.

"I tried to fight him but he killed me. He gave me this scar," Galen said as he pointed at the scar at the center of his chest. Rey was shocked at the revelation; "As I laid dying I asked Anakin, Why? And all he said was, "For Padme," He said that the Jedi betrayed all of us but that wasn't true, then he left me for dead. Suddenly, I felt life in me again. The Force resurrected me, made me immortal though I didn't know it at the time. When I came to, I saw so many Jedi, dead. Masters, Knights, Padawans, even younglings, children," Galen said bitterly, Rey was horrified by the description of Anakin killing children; "I was scared out of my mind, but then I saw something horrible, something that would change me entirely."

"What was it?" Asked Rey.

"My beloved Xena, lying on the floor with a lightsaber wound through her chest. That lightsaber you carry around was used by Anakin to kill me and everyone I loved." Rey was horrified by the thought. "I went to check on Xena and she was barely clinging to life. As she was dying she made me promise that I would be strong and survive. Then she died in my arms," Galen said, bitterly.

"That's horrible, I'm so sorry, Galen," said Rey, empathically.

"I felt sadness for a moment, despair. It was at that moment, I felt the Dark Side consume me. I felt nothing but rage, pain and vengeance. I took my lightsaber and my master's and I slaughtered every single clone at the temple. Rey was left shocked by the visualization of Galen slaughtering people so viciously. "I swore revenge that day."

Rey was speechless, "That's…I can't imagine," Rey said, horrified.

Galen grew angry and clenched his fist, "I paid back his blood a thousand times, and left him to burn on the volcanic shores of Mustafar." He then relaxed his hand, "But, he survived and I hunted him down for years."

Rey couldn't even think of what to say; she placed her hand right at Galen's scar on his chest and she saw a vision of the night of Order 66, the death of Cin Drallig, Galen himself and being resurrected by the Force and gaining immortality, Galen watching Xena die in his arms, Galen slaughtering the Clones, Galen burning Drallig and Xena, Galen and Anakin fighting on Mustafar, and Galen slicing Anakin's limbs off, setting him on fire and leaving him to burn. The vision ended and Rey was shocked by what she had seen. "You poor poor man," said Rey sadly.

"Yes, soon after that, I met Luke, Leia and Han.

"Wait, that was ages ago." Said Rey "Yes." Replied Galen "I've been alive for almost a century Rey and I cannot die."

Rey was surprised for a moment, she placed her hand on Galen's chest "Galen?"

"Yeah?"

"Do you ever think about home?" asked Rey.

"Every day. My home, my family, all of it" He then used the force to grab a monitor; he handed it to Rey. "What's this?" She asked

"Things from my past." Galen replied.

Rey clicked on one of the buttons that activated an image of a couple with the woman holding a baby and somebody else standing by their side. Rey was confused but then her eyes widened and began putting the pieces together. "The baby in this picture, is that you?"

"Yes this was a picture of the day I was born."

"Then that must be your father, and your mother?"

Galen nodded his head. "Yes, their names were Kento Marek and Mawley Jade. They were Jedi Knights who went on many missions together and soon they fell in love and I was born from it. It was forbidden for Jedi to have romantic ties but Master Yoda made an exception, saying he saw my potential and being a great help to the Jedi, so they allowed it."

Rey was stunned, she had no idea Galen had a family; "You had a family, what happened to them?"

"They were murdered…by Darth Sidious, after this picture was taken." Rey began to really emphasize with Galen, realizing he lost a family just like she did and why he hated Palpatine so much. "And this Xena what was she like?"

"She had brown hair and blue eyes she was so beautiful we knew each other when we were kids and then when we reunited 10 years later it felt so good and pretty soon we ended up falling in love but it was forbidden for Jedi to have romantic ties unless you were born in the Jedi Order and were granted permission by the council which we did and we became even closer throughout the Clone Wars." Rey looked through more pictures of Galen's datapad and saw pictures of him with Anakin, Ahsoka Tano and Obi Wan Kenobi as well as with Han, Luke and Leia. Galen then reached his hand out to Rey. "Take my hand."

"Why?"

To show you some things from my past."

Rey touched his hand and she found herself in a distant land at night, "Where am I?" She asked.

"You're in one of my memories Rey," Galen replied Rey was shocked that she was still naked but Galen reassured her, "Don't worry these are shadows of the past they can't see you." Rey then saw Galen sitting on a log wearing Jedi armor smiling confidently and drinking with his clones around the fire then Xena came to him. "You don't need that all you need is me," said Xena and kissed Galen he smiled and the two kissed and the clones cheered.

Galen's Clone Commander Korso raised his drink "Here's to a great leader who takes down droids like paper; we have a great victory ahead of us boys!" Said Korso and started laughing.

Then Galen poured his drink on Korso's head. "That'll be enough of that Korso," said Galen. He stood up and raised his lightsaber in the air and activated it. Xena did the same and he smiled at her then he turned to his troops. "TO FREEDOM!" Said Galen to the Clones.

"TO FREEDOM!" Said the clones raising their fists and blasters in the air.

"FOR THE REPUBLIC!" Said Xena.

"FOR THE REPUBLIC!" Said the Clones.

"IN THE NAME OF THE JEDI!" Galen and Xena declared.

"THE JEDI!" Screamed and were rallied up.

Galen grabbed Xena and smiled. "Now we have our own business to take care of." Galen said, smiling.

Xena smiled, "Do we now?" Said Xena, flirtatiously.

"We do," said Galen and Xena laughed and the two kissed as they walked into the tent. The vision ended and Rey and Galen were back in the present. "Wow Galen you had such a great life." Said Rey. "Yes, I did." Rey then went back into reality.

Galen put his hand on her cheek, "Whenever I see you you remind me of Xena I even see her strength in you." Rey smiled. Then Galen asked Rey, "Who was your first?" Rey smiled and was too embarrassed to say it. Galen chastised her, "No, I told you the first person I loved, now you have to tell me who your first was." Rey was silenced, "Some other scavenger? Finn? Poe?

"You." Rey answered.

Galen was surprised "Me really?" He then asked Rey, "What was it you liked about me?"

"We'll you're just so handsome and especially how great of a Jedi you were. I heard stories about you growing up and got me so interested in you I really like you," said Rey,

Galen stroked Rey's cheek, "I'm glad you think so." Then Galen jokes. "Guess I look pretty good for a man in his early nineties" Then Galen and Rey started laughing and then they kissed.

Much later, Galen and the others traveled to Pasanna to find the location of the Wayfinder. Galen and Rey smiled at each other and held hands as they walked looking at some stores. "I'm going to go ask some people around to see if they know anything," Said Rey.

"Okay, but be careful," Galen replied

"I will," said Rey.

Galen and Rey separated to talk to people. As Galen walked around, he noticed a family and the mother was holding a baby. This made Galen flashback to when Cin Drallig took Galen in when he was just a baby promising him that he would always protect them. Suddenly, he snapped back to reality when Rey touched his back. Galen was glad to see her. "So any luck on finding some info about the Wayfinder?" Galen asked.

"No, so far nothing's come up," Rey replied.

Galen noticed a necklace that she was wearing, "That's a beautiful necklace you got there," Galen remarked.

"Yes, one of the villagers gave it to me," Rey said, smiling.

Galen placed his non-gloved fingers on her chin, "It matches your eyes," Galen said, flirtatiously. Rey smiled at the compliment and the two shared a passionate kiss. Galen then noticed Finn and Poe seeing the two kissing. They had a surprised look on their faces. Galen and Rey were embarrassed. Suddenly, Kylo entered Rey's mind and threatened her and took her necklace. Galen noticed it and felt Kylo and Rey have a Force bond and Kylo discovered her location and soon they were spotted by Stormtroopers. Galen and the others ran, then a masked stranger helped them escape and brought them into his ship. "Hey who are you?" Asked Galen. The figure took his helmet off and the person behind the helmet was Galen's old friend Lando Calrisian. "LANDO!" said Galen as he hugged Lando, tightly.

"Still immortal huh, Galen." said Lando, smiling, "What's with the long hair and the beard?"

"It's nothing," said Andrew, smiling. Lando noticed Galen and Rey standing next to each other and gave a knowing look at the two of them. Lando showed them information about a clue that could lead to the Wayfinder and he dropped them off at the location and left. All of the sudden Stormtroopers started firing and Galen tried deflecting their shots back at them and using the Force to smash their speeders together. He then used his anger and blasted them with Force Lightning, exploding some of their speeders. But they were shot down and fell into quicksand. But when they sank, it was an underground passageway they managed to find a dagger that led to the Wayfinder. All of the sudden, they encountered a huge Space Snake. Galen pulled out his lightsaber. "Come on you fucking worm come on!" Galen yelled. "Galen no," Said Rey. She saw that it was wounded and she healed him. "What is wrong with you Galen you haven't been yourself?" Asked Rey. "I'm sorry, I just feel so frustrated sometimes I feel like a different person," said Galen.

They managed to get out of the underground cave and got out into the open. They then found the ship that Galen saw in Rey's memories all of the sudden Rey sensed that Kylo was coming. "KYLO'S MINE!" Screamed Galen. He then got out in the middle of the desert and saw Kylo coming to him in his TIE Reaper. Galen activated his lightsaber and angrily charged at Kylo Galen screamed as he ran towards Kylo's ship and sliced one of the wings off he then turned and saw it crash. "Oh no, I'm not done with you yet, father killer," Galen snarled. Rey joined him in the fight. All of the sudden, Poe came out and told them that Chewie and the Falcon just got captured Rey and Galen saw the ship that Chewie was in and tried to pull it to them with the Force but Kylo grabbed it too Galen and Rey concentrated really hard then all of the sudden lightning blasted from Rey's hand blowing up the ship. Galen and Rey were shocked in horror, "CHEWIE!" Screamed Rey. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Screamed Galen, horrified. They saw the Knights of Ren and they escaped on Ochi's ship. On the ship Galen was angry at Rey. "YOU KILLED HIM! YOU KILLED HIM!" Screamed Galen tearfully as he pinned Rey against the wall.

"Galen, I'm so sorry," said Rey.

Galen started crying and he hugged Rey.

The gang traveled to Kimji where they met Zori Bliss, an old friend of Poe who brought them to the Droidsmith Babu Fritz so they could extract the Sith translation from C-3P0's memory. They discovered the Wayfinder's location was on a moon in the Endor system. Galen reflected back on Endor and the events that happened. As he pondered, Rey sensed that Chewie is alive. "Chewie he's alive, Galen Chewie's alive." Said Rey happily.

Galen's eyes widened, "What, he's alive?" He then used the force to sense him and he sensed him on the Star Destroyer above them. "He's alive. I can't believe he's alive," said Galen, happily, he then turned to Rey and placed his hands on Rey's cheeks and Rey smiled at Galen. "Rey, I'm so sorry I yelled at you earlier," said Galen and kissed her.

"It's okay Galen, we'll get Chewie back, together," declared Rey. Galen and the others went aboard the Star Destroyer to rescue Chewie Galen and Rey found Chewie's things. Rey noticed Galen staring at a burned helmet. Rey asked Galen, "What is it?"

"Some horrible thing from my past," Galen answered, bitterly.

Galen and Rey found the dagger on the counter. When Rey and Galen touched it, they saw a vision of Ochi killing Rey's parents with it. Then the vision stopped then Rey had a force bond with Kylo and he discovered she and her friends were on the ship. Galen caught up with Finn, Poe and Chewie but they were caught by Stormtroopers but then they were saved by Hux who was actually the spy for the Resistance he helped them escape. Before they did he asked Galen to shoot him to make it look like he beat them. "Alright," said Galen. He shot Hux in the leg, "That's for the Jedi," snarled Galen. He then kicked Hux in the face so hard he busted most of his teeth out, "And that's for the Republic," Galen said, angrily. Later, Hux was killed by General Pryde. They managed to fly the Falcon out of the hangar. Galen and Rey got to the hanger and they found Kylo.He then revealed the truth about why Rey was so powerful it was because she was Darth Sidious' creation. Galen and Rey stood in shock. Finn and the others arrived and Galen and Rey leapt into the Falcon and flew off towards Endor. After going through many trials and Galen almost losing Chewie and finding out that Rey was a creation of Darth Sidious and learning her parents were killed by someone sent by Palpatine to kill his son and his wife along with their child, Galen started to connect more with Rey seeing as they were both victims of Palpatine. But Galen was Palpatine's longest victim since the day he was born. They managed to sail towards the wreckage of the 2nd Death Star above a huge mass of water. Galen and Rey climb through the wreckage Galen grabbed Rey's hand and pulled her up. Rey looked around the room and noticed Galen staring at something; she looked at where Galen was staring at and saw that it was a throne."What is it?" Rey asked.

"I was here, when it happened," said Galen.

"When what happened?"

Galen reached his non-gloved hand out to Rey. She touched it and saw the whole room around her change and Galen disappeared. She saw that the chamber was clean and in its prime as she turned her head she was spooked by seeing Sidious' smiling face. Rey became confused as to what Sidious was staring at. As she turned, her eyes widened as she saw Galen beating Vader with his bare hands. She noticed Vader was missing a hand. Rey was horrified at the person Galen used to be, full of rage and vengeance. She then saw the whole event of Galen attempting to kill Vader, Luke stopping him and convincing him to spare him, and to the moment when Anakin saved Luke and Galen by throwing Sidious into the reactor below them. The vision ended and Rey found herself back in the present. She asked, "Galen, why did you show me that memory?"

"Because, all these years, I've seen so many people suffer at Sidious' hand. Kind, good, innocent people. My friends, my family and everyone of them. He's taken everything that I have ever…loved," Galen said as a tear fell down his face, "All I have…are memories Rey." He placed his non-gloved hand over Rey's cheek, "I don't want you to become just a memory," Galen said, saddened.

"Galen, don't you see? Everything that has happened has led to this moment and we can end this, together," Rey declared as she placed her hands on Galens. Galen smiled and they searched for the Wayfinder. Galen and Rey managed to find the Wayfinder. But all of the sudden, they ran into a dark version of Rey with a black hood around her head with a red double bladed lightsaber they fought her and then Dark Rey's face turned demonic and it scared them and then they found themselves back to the physical realm with the Wayfinder. But Kylo showed up and summoned the Wayfinder to his hand Galen angrily activated his lightsaber and Rey activated hers as well. Rey demanded Kylo to give it back to her but he refused and told her the only they shall get to Exegal is with him then he crushed the Wayfinder to pieces Rey screamed "NO!"

Galen screamed with vengeance and charged straight at him and started attacking him. Rey joined in on the fight. The fight led to the three of them outside where the waves crashed around them. Galen screamed, charged at Kylo, and began shooting him with Han's blaster. But Kylo deflected all of his shots. Galen put it away and executed some Ataru acrobatics and Djem So strikes on Kylo who blocked it and their sabers were locked together. Galen struggled and tried to push him back; then he noticed one of Kylo's crossguard blades about to pierce his arm. He headbutted Kylo in the face. Then Galen started pounding Kylo's face with his gloved gauntlet which contained Dura Steel Knuckles and pounded his face till it got bloody and punched him so hard he flew back. "MY FRIEND, YOUR OWN FATHER HOW COULD YOU?!" Galen shouted.

Rey landed some strikes but missed Rey and Galen started getting the upper hand but then Kylo grabbed Galen with the force and Force pushed him away into the water "GALEN!" Screamed Rey as Galen flew off the edge into the waters. Rey tried fighting him but, Kylo started to gain the upper hand. As he was about to strike her down, he heard his mother Leia's voice call out his name. He stopped and dropped his saber. Then as it fell, it flew upward towards Galen in the air he activated the lightsaber and lift it above his head and screamed with rage in his heart and stabbed Kylo straight through the heart with his own lightsaber."DIEEEEEEEEEE!" Screamed Galen."Tell me, how does that feel?" He said, sadistically. He then pulled it out of Kylo's chest and raised Kylo's saber over his shoulders."This is for my friends Han and Luke…and Leia," As he swung Kylo's saber towards his head Rey stopped him, "Galen, stop!" She shouted.

"REY?! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!" Galen asked, angrily

"Galen please." Said Rey."I know he's caused so much pain to you and so much misery but this isn't the way Galen." "REY YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH HIS FAMILY AND THE SITH CAUSED TO ME THEY TOOK EVERYTHING I EVER HAD THEY'VE FUCKED ME OVER FOR YEARS EVERY TIME SOMETHING GOOD HAPPENS IN MY LIFE EVERY FUCKING TIME THE SITH OR A SKYWALKER RUINS IT AND I'VE, HAD, ENOUGH!" Screamed Galen.

"Galen please none of it was his fault it was Sidious who did this he manipulated him as he manipulated your childhood friend. Please Galen, find it in your heart to show mercy he's not the enemy. Please, for me," Rey begged.

Galen then started to raised the saber to strike him down but stop and felt conflict within him thinking back to when he was about to kill Vader even after everything he did but refused to do it and when Anakin in his dying breath apologized to Galen for all the pain he caused him maybe the same could be for Ben. Galen then deactivated Kylo's saber and dropped it to the ground."I'm done with this," said Galen, Rey then healed Kylo. Rey and Galen left for Aach Too, Rey flew in Kylo's TIE Silencer while Galen flew in his Jedi Starfighter. At the planet, Rey decided to give up on it all as well as Galen. Rey blew up Kylo's ship and it started to burn and then Rey was about to throw Luke's saber into the fire but then a hand caught the saber Galen and Rey were shocked to see the figure revealed to be Luke as a Force Ghost. "A Jedi's weapon deserves more respect," said Luke.

"Luke?" Galen said, surprised.

"What are you two doing here?' Luke asked.

Rey said she was afraid that she would become like Sidious but Luke told her, "It's much more than blood. Come with me, there's something my sister wanted you to have," Luke said as he brought her to a hut. In the hutt Rey pulled out a box from a brick within the wall and in it was Leia's saber. Luke explained to Rey about Leia's last night of her training and she told Luke that she saw the death of her son at the end of her Jedi Path and someone would carry her Saber one day. Rey accepted to go back and face Palpatine but she had no ship then Luke used the Force to summon his old X Wing from the water. Galen and Rey were shocked and surprised to see it. Rey turned to Galen, "Galen come on, let's go."

"No," said Galen bitterly.

"What do you mean? They need our help. They can't do this without us," Rey insisted

"Don't you get it Rey? I'm done with this. I'm sick of going into some pointless battle and fighting for nothing but pointless shit!" Galen said angrily, "Do what you want, Rey. But I don't care anymore, I'm done," said Galen as he walked away from Rey.

"Galen, the galaxy needs us!" Rey begged.

"Forget it!" Galen shouted.

"Fine!" Said Rey, angrily. She got into Luke's X-Wing and took off for Exegol.

Afterwards, Galen sat in a hut doing nothing. Luke appeared to him, "Galen, what are you doing? You must help her," insisted Luke.

"Leave me alone," Galen said, bitterly.

"Galen-"

"I SAID LEAVE ME, THE, FUCK ALONE!" Galen snapped. "YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FUCKING FAMILY HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT A PLAGUE ON MY LIFE YOU TOOK EVERYTHING AWAY FROM ME MY HOME, MY FAMILY, EVERYTHING! NOW DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, AND GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY SIGHT!" Galen yelled.

Luke was saddened, "Okay, I'll leave you alone. I was hoping that you would be the kind of Jedi who would never give up on people," Luke replied and disappeared. Galen walked around the island, depressed and given up. "Galen," said a voice.

Galen looked and saw Yoda. "What do you want, Yoda?" Said Galen. "To ask you, who are you?" Asked Yoda.

"I don't know who I am anymore, I should've died a long time ago. All I have are just memories of the people I care about. They're gone because of the Skywalkers and Sidious," said Galen.

"No, they're not. Come with me, you must," insisted Yoda. He brought Galen to a river. "Look in the river, what do you see?" Asked Yoda. Galen looked in the water and saw only his reflection. "I don't see shit, it's just my reflection," said Galen angrily.

"No, look closer you must," said Yoda as he poked his cane in the river which caused a ripple. Galen looked and his eyes widened as he saw his reflection change into his old self, his father, his mother, his master and the woman he loved and it kept going back and forth. "You see, in you they live," Said Yoda Galen was stunned then he heard his voice saying "Galen." Galen looked up and was shocked to see the Force Ghosts of his master and his parents. "Mom? Dad?Master Drallig?"

"Galen, you must confront Palpatine, you must go help Rey," Insisted Kento.

"I can't." Galen replied. "You must remember who you are, the Warrior Master of the Jedi Order,"said Mawley.

"I'm sorry, I'm not the Jedi I used to be," Galen sadly said.

"As Jedi Battlemaster I was most proud of one thing: having you as my Padawan and raising you as if you were my own son," said Cin, smiling. "That was a long time ago," said Galen.

"No Galen, that is forever," said Mawley, smiling.

"Remember all the people that you helped over the years. Rekindling hope to those who had none," said Drallig.

"Be brave my son, remember who you are and the legacy of the Jedi you carry inside of you will live forever," said Kento.

"We love you, Galen. Always," said Mawley.

Kento and Mawley embraced Galen as well as Cin. Galen embraced them all and tears began falling down his face. Then they fade away into the Force. Galen felt such happiness getting to finally see his parents.

"Hello Galen," said a voice.

Galen was shocked to hear that familiar voice. He turned and then tears flowed down his eyes and down his bearded chin. "Xena," said Galen softly. It was his old love Xena as a Force Ghost smiling at him. Galen wrapped his arms around her."Xena I'm so so sorry," said Galen sobbingly."I'm so sorry, my love. It's my fault, I let this happen," said Galen.

Xena placed her hands on both sides of Galen's face. "Galen, listen to me. None of this is your fault. It's Palpatine who's to blame for mine and all of our deaths,"said Xena. "You must go on, you must confront Sidious," Xena insisted.

"I can't defeat the Sith," said Galen.

"Freedom for the galaxy is within your reach. There's a battle on the way and it needs you to fight in it," Xena said.

"To what end?" Asked Galen.

"The death of Sidious and the Sith," Xena answered. "If you give up, Sidious will oppress the galaxy, people will live and fear, and we finds you he will torture you forever. You will have no rest until you destroy him. You have a purpose, Galen."

"A purpose for what? The Force brought me back for nothing. Just brought me back and made me watch everyone that I love die all around me. It took me away from you and my family," Galen said, tearfully.

"You were chosen, Galen. The Force chose you to be their champion to combat against the Dark Side," said Xena."Besides there's someone who loves you, someone who reminds you of me." Xena said."Rey." Replied Galen.

Xena placed her hands on Galen's face and kissed him. Galen returned the kiss. As they kissed, Galen saw all the happy memories they had together. Xena embraced Galen. "My beloved Galen, we'll always be with you. You'll always be a part of me and I will always be a part of you," declared Xena.

Galen felt some sense of closure. He then saw Xena float into the air and turn into golden light particles and became one with the Cosmic Force. Galen looked to the rising sun in the distance.

Yoda appeared and said, "Again I ask, who are you?" Galen raised his head with a sense of hope and purpose."I am Galen Marek, Warrior Master of the Jedi Order, son of Kento and Molly Marek, former Padawan of the previous Battlemaster Cin Drallig," declared Galen.

Rey made her way to Exegal to confront Palpatine. She found him sitting on the throne and she told her he knew that she was going to kill her if she kills him his spirit will pass on into her. Rey hesitated and she sensed Jacen's pressense. Jacen came to help Rey thanks to Anakin's force ghost appearing to him to lead Jacen back to the light. Jacen was caught by the Knights of Ren and he didn't have a weapon. Rey used the power of their Force Dyad to send Anakin's saber to him and she pulled out Leia's saber. Then Sith troopers began attacking Rey with their electrical batons and staff. She handled very well against the troopers, but then more kept pouring in and one hit her with his electrical staff so hard she got knocked to the ground. Rey was scared as the Sith trooper prepared to strike at her. Suddenly, a lightsaber came in and cut his head off. Then the Saber flew back into the hands of a silhouetted figure. Rey looked to see who it was the figure stepped out of the mist.It was none other…then Galen Marek. He shaved off his beard and pulled his hair back like his master and wore white Jedi clothing. He walked towards Rey. Rey smiled, so happy to see Galen. "Galen you're here, why?"

"Someone showed up and gave me hope. I guess maybe we can beat them after all," said Galen, confidently. He reached his hand out to Rey and she grabbed it and he pulled her up on her feet the Sith troopers got their weapons out and got into a fighting stance. Galen took his lightsaber and got into a ready stance. Rey got into her own Ataru stance as well. "Alright Rey, time to show you how I did it in my day," declared Galen.

Galen and Rey charged at them and Galen performed some flip attacks with his lightsabers and somersaulted all over them and deflected some attacks as more came Galen told Rey."Alright Rey time to do a maneuver me Xena used in the Clone Wars. Galen and Rey stood back to back in a fighting stance then a quick flashback to Xena and Galen in the same stances surrounded by Super Battle Droids and Droidekas then it went to Rey and Galen and they start fighting while in sync and it flashes to Xena and Galen performing the same moves they swung and kept themselves in a circle they flipped over each other while slicing up Super Battle Droids and Droidekas. Galen and Rey did the same thing to the Sith Troopers. Meanwhile, Poe and the Resistance attacked the Star Destroyers carrying planet killing weapons. They soon became overpowered. Suddenly, Lando and all the people of the galaxy came to help as well as Ben Skywalker and all of the remaining Jedi together they began fighting back against The First Order. Eventually they took them all out, then Jacen showed up and the three prepared to face Sidious but Sidious froze them in place then he absorbed Rey and Jacen's life Force. "NO!" Yelled Galen. Sidious came back to full power and Rey and Jacen fell to the floor but Kylo managed to get back up. Palpatine lift him up with the force and flung him into a pit. Galen broke free and tried to attack Sidious. But Sidious used to stop him in mid air with the Force, slammed Galen's face into the ground multiple times and then flung him into a wall Galen couldn't move, his face bloody and bruised he felt like he couldn't move and was too weak to stand up. Sidious then shot lightning into the sky where the Resistance were fighting against the Star Destroyers and some began to fall outta the sky."No," Whispered Galen. He tried to get back up but he couldn't. Then he heard the voices of his parents, his master, Anakin, Obi Wan, Qui Gon, Mace Windu, Kannan Jarrus, Ahsoka Tano, Yoda, Luke and Leia, his parents, Xena, Zim and Drallig calling his name. "Destroy Sidious as I did," said Anakin.

"We stand behind you Galen," said Qui Gon.

"Get up Galen," said Ahsoka,

"Alone you never were," said Yoda.

"In the heart of a Jedi lies his strength," said Kannan.

Soon they appeared as Force Ghosts and went into Galen to give him their strength and power. Galen's eyes widened and flickered blue for a moment, feeling all this power surging within him. Galen started to get back up slowly with blood dripping from his mouth and on his face. "Galen, the Force will be with you,." said Luke.

"Always," said all the Jedi Galen knew.

Galen felt so much adrenaline in his body. "HEEEEEEEEY, FUCK FACE!" Screamed Galen at Sidious. Sidious looked and was surprised to see Galen on his feet after that damage he took from him. "ENOUGH OF YOU'RE FUCKING RETARDED, FUCKING RAMBLING SHIT FACE ME LIKE A MAN!" Yelled Galen.

"So be it…Jedi," said Sidious.

Sidious began absorbing the life force of the thousands of Sith acolytes in the chamber and they dried up and Sidious laughed as smoke filled around him. When it cleared, all Galen saw was Sidious' yellow eyes underneath the hood. Then Sidious took off his hood. He was much younger with Red hair and smooth skin. He glared sadistically at Galen with his yellow eyes. He then took off his robes and a lightsaber fell from his sleeve and he activated it and took a fighting stance. Galen did the same. The two stared at each other then Palpatine lunged forward and Galen screamed and charged at Palpatine their blades clashed in the air and an epic battle ensued between the two of both parried and countered each other's strikes and Galen performed some Ataru attacks but Sidious blocked all of his attacks then they locked Sabers again."You will die like your father, and you shall scream like your mother," mocked Sidious, "When will this little vengeance of yours end, Marek." Smirked Sidious.

"It'll only end with your DEATH!" Replied Galen and pushed Sidious back."You can't win, Sidious!"

"THIS IS MY GALAXY, MY DESTINY!" Sidious shouted.

The two began clashing against each other but then Sidious started to gain the upper hand and stabbed Galen in the chest.``You weak, pathetic fool." Taunted Sidious as he stabbed Galen multiple times and blasted him into the wall but then Galen stood back up, his face all bloodied and turned on his lightsaber. "I can do this all day," declared Galen. He then got into a stance that surprised Sidious, it was Galen's father's stance and for a moment, he saw Kento standing before him. Sidious attacked Galen and Galen blocked all of Sidiou's attacks and pushed him back. Then he got into Xena's fighting stance and attacked Sidious with strikes, fluid like water. He then Force pushed Sidious back into a wall. "I am all the Sith," Sidious declared.

"And I…" Galen then raised his arms up and many rocks began to rip from the ground around them and float in the air, Galen's eyes flickered blue for a moment as he said, "Am all the Jedi." He then moved his hands forward and began pelting Sidious with rocks. Sidious tried to block his attack but more rocks kept hitting him. One rock hit Sidious in the face causing his head to bleed. Sidious broke through his barrage of rocks and their blades locked against each other. But then Sidious started pinning Galen's saber to the ground Galen began struggling trying to bring it back up. "You're nothing, an ancient Jedi from the past is no match for the power in me, I have won.," said Sidious, confidently.

Galen started wondering what to do; then he flashed back to his training with Drallig when he was in that same position his master was in and taught Galen the unstoppable move. Galen said to Sidious, "You know what? Let me tell you something my master told me when I was a kid. In the end…" He then slid his lightsaber out from under Sidious' blade. Galen put all of his rage, all of his anger and all of his sorrow into this one strike as he did he leapt out a rageful cry as well as all the Jedi within him and sliced off Sidious' head which went spiraling up in the air then Galen finished his sentence saying, "There can be only one." Sidious' head screamed in pain as his face reverted to his wrinkled old self, his eyes became lifeless, and his head and his headless body exploded, energy began blasting everywhere. It then traveled up into the sky and bolts of lighting began destroying all the Star Destroyers and Tie Fighters. The Resistance cheered in victory knowing Galen killed Sidious.

At last Galen had finally avenged his family, his love and his master Galen Fell on his knees tired from losing the energy boost he got from Anakin and everyone else he let out a victorious cry. He then saw Rey on the ground. He slowly made his way to Rey but then fell on his knees too weak to stand and crawled to her."Rey, Rey," said Galen as he cradled her in his arms. Rey didn't move or say anything. Galen realized that Sidious sucked all of her life force out of her and Galen began to cry over Rey's lifeless body, flashing back to when Xena died in his arms. "No, not, not again," said Galen in tears.

Suddenly, Jacen crawled out of the pit he fell in. Galen saw him."Jacen, please help her. I beg you, I can't live without her," begged Galen,

Jacen agreed and gave Rey the last of his life energy to her. Rey smiled at Ben and Galen smiled that she was alive again. "Galen, Jacen," said Rey, happily.

Suddenly, Jacen began to feel cold and fell to the ground. Rey and Galen began to watch sadly as Ben's body disappeared into the Force. Rey began to feel saddened by Jacen's death; Galen did as well and cried for a moment.. Galen put a hand on her shoulder. "I'm sorry. Come on, let's go," said Galen.

As Rey and Galen began to walk away, they heard thunder and lightning strike the skies. Rey and Galen looked up curiously to see it. Suddenly, a huge bolt of lightning engulfed Galen and blasted Rey away. She watched as Galen screamed and felt himself being lifted up into the air until he was really high up. Energy began flowing into his body and then his body started to turn blue then white light began to blast from Galen's eyes and mouth and Galen screamed. His whole life began to flash before his eyes super fast then a huge blast of energy exploded from Galen which caused a massive shockwave that knocked Rey to the ground. Galen fell to the ground and his body turned normal again and sparks began to flicker around Galen and stopped as he lay motionless. Rey was scared and ran to Galen and grabbed him in her arms. Galen's eyes were closed and he didn't move."Galen please Galen wake up." Said Rey worriedly, Rey shaked Galen's body but he didn't move. She put her ear on Galen's chest to see if his heart was beating. Tears began flowing down her face as she heard nothing. "Galen! Galen no!" Said Rey tearfully. "No, please, please don't leave me." Rey was so filled with sad emotion. She beated on Galen's chest to jumpstart it but it didn't work. She cried over Galen's lifeless body. "I loved you. I loved you from the first time I saw you," Rey confessed, tearfully.

Suddenly, Galen gasped for air and began breathing heavily. Rey lifted her head in shock and looked to see Galen with his eyes open..Rey tearfully smiled."Galen! What happened?"

"I feel different. I feel…mortal again," said Galen.

Rey smiled and embraced Galen and he embraced her as well. Galen placed his hand on her cheek. He then removed the band over her right arm that was covering the scar she got from the Praetorian guards. He undid her hair and it fell loose on her back. Rey smiled as she placed her hand on Galen's cheek. Galen smiled at Rey. The two looked deeply into each other's eyes and kissed and then they wrapped their arms around each other as they kissed deeper. On that day, the Immortal Jedi had died and Galen Marek had returned.

The Resistance had won, the Sith and the First Order were finally gone. Rey and Galen head back to the resistance base. Rey flew in Galen's Jedi Interceptor while Galen flew in Luke's X-Wing. When they arrived, the Resistance ran towards the Jedi Interceptor, believing he was in there but it was Rey instead. They were glad to see her. When Galen opened the cockpit, the Resistance roared in joy. Galen came out of the X-Wing and the whole Resistance lifted him up on their shoulders and carried him. Galen was weak but glad that they were alive. He was happy to see Ben and the handful of Jedi. As he looked uphill in the distance, he saw his mother and father smiling at Galen proudly. Galen's eyes widened in surprise. Kento gave Gale a proud nod while Mawley leaned on Kentos shoulder, smiling. Galen smiled at the two of them. They smiled with approval. The Resistance let Galen down and he and Rey reunited with Poe and Finn. The four hugged each other really tightly. Suddenly, Yoda appeared to Galen. "Done well you have, Galen. You've brought peace and freedom to the galaxy. Proven worthy you have of taking my place as grandmaster," said Yoda, proudly.

Galen was shocked to hear it. Yoda then bowed to Galen. Galen turned and saw Poe and Finn kneeling before Galen and bowing to him. As Galen turned he saw the whole Resistance including Ben all going down on one knee and bowing to him. As Galen looked in the back, he saw R2, C-3P0 and BB-8 bowing as well. Galen felt confident and proud.

Galen turned to Rey and got down on one knee."Rey, you are the most extraordinary person I ever met even at my lowest point you were one of the people that got me back up," said Galen. He then pulled out from one of the pouches on his belt the blue Kyber crystal ring that he was going to give to Xena. Rey covered her mouth and tears began coming down her face."I made this for Xena. I was going to give this to her at the end of the Clone Wars but then Order 66 happened and I lost everything so I kept this to remind me of what could've been. But now whenever I see you, you remind me so much of her. I see the same strength, same spirit within you, what I'm saying is Rey Carson…will you marry me?"

Rey looked at Galen tearfully. "Galen, yes," said Rey and embraced Galen.

Finn, Poe and the whole resistance cheered Rey and Galen hugged then Galen placed the ring on Rey's finger and the two kissed.

Afterwards, they traveled to Tatooine in the Millenium Falcon to bury Luke and Leia's lightsabers. As Rey buried them, Galen said, "Goodbye, Luke. Goodbye, Leia." Rey stood next to Galen to comfort him. "You know Rey? I was there, the day they were born."

"You were?" Rey asked, surprised.

"Yes, it was after I thought I killed Anakin. I headed to Polis Massa with Padme and it was there that she gave birth to Luke and Leia. And I hated those two because they reminded me of the one who betrayed me," said Galen.

"Yes, but that's all in the past now. It's all over," Rey reassured. She pulled out her new lightsaber which Galen helped Rey make. It had a blade that glowed yellow. "Thanks for helping me make this," said Rey.

"You're welcome," replied Galen.

Suddenly, an old woman appeared before them. "You two. No one has been here for years. Who are you two?" the old woman asked.

"I'm Galen Marek.

The old woman looked at Rey. "And who are you?"

"I'm Rey."

"Rey who?" the old woman asked.

Rey looked to the distance and then smiled. Galen turned to where Rey was looking at. His eyes widened and tears fell down his face as he saw the force ghosts of Luke and Leia smiling at them. Rey looked down at the Kyber Crystal ring that Galen gave her and smiled. She looked up at the old woman and said, "Rey Marek."

Weeks later on Yavin 4, it was the day of their wedding. Galen stood on the altar with a white Jedi tunic and white robes he cut his hair back to how it was before his depression. On the groom's side, was his master Cin Drallig, his childhood friend Anakin as his best man and his father's friend and Xena's master Zim CIcada as Force Ghosts. On the Bride's side was Rose Tico, Zorii Bliss, and Jannah. Lando Calrisan was the Minister. Luke, Leia, Han, Poe, Finn, and all the Resistance and all the Jedi of the past were in their seats. They all stood as music played. The doors opened and behind them was Rey. Rey walked down the aisle with a beautiful wedding dress with flowers in her hands Galen was surprised at Rey's dress and smiled. Rey smiled at him as well as she approached him. She met with him on the Altar and gave the flowers to Rose and then her and Galen held hands and smiled. "Dearly beloved, we gather here today to join Galen Marek and Rey Carsonin unity but first the couple would like to say a few things," announced Lando. Galen went first."Rey, when I became immortal, I was alone for so long. I had nothing but vengeance fighting for the cause. Some people came and went like Cal Kestis and Kannan Jarrus and Phoenix Squadron. But when I met Luke, Han, Leia and Chewie I felt like I had friends again like I had a close bond with them especially with Luke. He reminded me so much of his father and when I met you, you reminded me of Xena and I just instantly fell for you but I didn't know if you would really accept me especially with my past. I was in a dark place, Rey and you were one of the people that helped me back up from that dark place. You gave me hope and a reason to fight on again. I love you Rey, I've always loved you even when I didn't act like I did and I want to spend the rest of my life with you Rey. Especially now that I am mortal again even the scar on the center of my chest is gone," said Galen, happily.

"Galen, I love you so much. I was alone, too. I had nobody, I was just a scavenger that lived in the desert than you, Finn and BB-8 came and you showed me so much in the galaxy. I heard stories about you when I was a child but I didn't know much about your real story until you told me. You were one of the people I looked up to. I love you, Galen. And I want to spend the rest of my life with you, too." said Rey, happily.

And so the ceremony began.``Do you Galen Marek take this woman, Rey Carson, to be your lawfully wedded wife to have and to hold, in sickness and health, for better or for worse and as long as you both shall live?" Asked Lando,

"I do," said Galen happily.

"Do you, Rey Carson, take this man, Galen Marek, to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Asked Lando.

"I do," said Rey happily,

"Then by the power vested in me, by the Living and Cosmic Force. I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride Galen," declared Lando, smiling.

"I love you," Galen said to Rey.

"I love you," Replied Rey and they both kissed.

The whole crowd cheered and applauded for them. Then white rose petals fell from the ceiling. Afterwards, they celebrated. Galen and Rey shared the first dance together. While they were slow-dancing to the beautiful music, they placed their foreheads against each other when they did, they saw each other's memories. After that, they made a toast and everyone all said some great and funny things about Galen and Rey. Then everyone started dancing. Rey and Galen danced with each other with fast music happily then it was Poe and Finn dancing with hip hop music then it was Galen and Anakin doing some fluid breakdancing and back flips with rock music playing. After the Wedding Party, Galen and Rey took off in the Millenium Falcon to Naboo for their honeymoon. For a year, Galen and Rey went on many missions together and helped maintain peace in the galaxy and made sure the Sith or something worse than the First Order never came back. One day, Galen had returned from a mission his hair was longer again and pulled back like his master Drallig and wore white Jedi clothes. Galen came back home to see Rey."Rey, Rey?" Galen couldn't find her; he went outside and found a trail of Rey's clothes on the ground. Galen smiled and followed the trail. The trail led him into a forest to a beautiful lake with a waterfall. He saw Rey emerge from underwater bathing. Rey let her hair grow out a bit more. Rey turned and saw Galen and smiled and Galen smiled back at her. He took off his clothes and jumped in the lake to join her and the two swam close to one another inside the waterfall Galen swam close to Rey. She wrapped her arms around Galen and smiled. They intimately looked at each other and kissed. They had many romantic times together. Galen and Rey rebuild the Jedi Order on Yavin 4 where Rey would be the Battlemaster and Galen would be the grandmaster Galen, Rey and Ben Skywalker managed to rebuild the Jedi Order and it prospered. Finn was also revealed to be Force sensitive and was trained by Galen and became a Jedi. One day, Galen got back from rescuing some Wookies on Kashyyk who were held by Bandits. Galen found Rey and she told Galen something that would change everything, "Galen, something wonderful has happened." Rey grabbed Galen's hand and placed it near her stomach.

Galen felt a heartbeat and was shocked by it."Rey…are you?"

"Yes Galen…I'm pregnant." Said Rey.

Galen was filled with so much happiness."I'm gonna be a father!?" said Galen, happily.

"YES!" said Rey.

Galen then lifted Rey up and Rey screamed and laughed while Galen spun her around on his shoulder. Galen told Finn and Poe and the others about Rey's pregnancy and they all congratulated him. nine months later, Galen was at home with Rey. Suddenly, he heard Rey scream in pain."Rey?! Rey!" said Galen, worriedly. Rey's water had just broke and was going into labor. He carried Rey in his arms up into the Falcon and called Poe on the Holonet."Poe you there?! POE!" Yelled Galen.

"What is it?" Asked Poe.

"It's Rey, she's going to have the baby!" Yelled Galen.

"Okay I'll get the medical center on it right away," declared Poe.

Galen arrived in the Medical bay and brought Rey in. He then waited in the other room pacing and hoping she would be okay as well as their child. He heard Rey scream in agony for minutes. Then, his eyes widened when he heard the sound of a baby crying. He came to see if they were okay but then one of the medical officers came to the door."Tell me what is it? How's Rey?" Asked Galen, concerned.

"It's a boy Galen, Rey's fine you'll get to see them soon in ten minutes," said the Twilek medical nurse. She closed the door to tend to Rey.

"A boy?!" Galen thought; he was happy he was a father now.

Finn, Poe, Rose and the others showed up to congratulate Galen and the birth of his son. Ten minutes later, Galen stepped into the room and smiled when he saw Rey in the medical bed holding a white bundle and in it was their son."Come meet your son," said Rey, happily.

Galen walked over to her bedside and Rey gave the baby to Galen. He held him in his arms, "My, my son?" Galen thought as he held him in his arms. His eyes were closed and he was sleeping. Galen felt so much happiness."He's beautiful, Rey," said Galen and the two smiled and kissed softly.

Poe and the others walked into the room to congratulate them. "So uh, what are you gonna name him?" Asked Poe.

"We already decided what to call him, during those nine months. We've decided to name him after his father's master," said Rey, smiling

"Say hello to my son…Cin Kento Marek," declared Galen and they rejoiced. They took a massive picture with Galen and Rey alongside all of their friends. Afterwards Galen had a happy life with Rey and their son and they had so much fun day Galen went to talk to Rey who was holding Cin."Come I want to show you something," said Galen he brought them onto the Falcon and flew them to Coruscant to the Jedi Temple which was in ruins.

Rey was amazed "So, this is where it all began"

"Yes, this was where I was born, where I was trained, where I lived until it was all taken from me but now I got it back again thanks to you and our son." Helooked at Cin. "I'll raise our son to be as great of a Jedi as I am," declared Galen. He and Rey looked at each other. They smiled and kissed. In the end, Galen Marek gained his mortality again but Galen had something even greater, a family. One thing was absolutely certain for Galen, his life had never been greater.
