The war begins.
It was finally time. After days of preparing the Beacon students were now ready to take on the Empire. They all knew that they will be fighting a powerful and merciless foes. Something that Luke wanted to make sure they understood.
Luke stood infront of them as he gave his speech "Listen up everyone. We are about to go to war with by far the most dangerous threat Renmant has ever seen. You are not dealing with brainless monsters or power hungry criminals. You are facing an military force. The war will be perilous, and whether we'll win at the end is entirely uncertain!" He looked over the Beacon students "What I'm trying to say is. If you are not ready to risk your lives fighting such a major threat, then this is your chance to walk away! No one will blame you for it!".
The students looked at eachother having an silent debate. But then Jaune stepped forward with determination in his face.
"The Empire stole our home, if we let them win then the world won't be worth living in! We will stay, we will fight and we will win!" He said, and the others nodded while Pyrrah smiled at her leader.
"All of us here, we know about loss, don't we? We've lost loved ones, friends and our homes. Our lives have been taken from us. It almost feels like our destiny. But not one of you has given up. You've stuck it out through your losses. You've come together to build, to create, to fight! And I respect each and every one of you! Working together, the world won't have to live under the threat of tyrants. Together, we will fight the empire and we will prevail!" Luke finished his inspiring speech.
Everyone cheered and Luke smiled with pride. There is still hope.
Back at The Empire's main base Lana returned with Ruby. She was finally ready to be at Lana's side. With the help of the dark side Lana had managed to corrupt the young Rose to become her apprentice.
"Now Ruby, I got a present for you!" Lana said as they walked out of the ship.
"What's that?" Ruby asked.
"Go to your room and I will bring it to you after I've given our troops some moral support!" Lana said, Ruby was about to say something but a quick kiss on the lips stopped her "Trust me, it will be worth it!".
Ruby nodded with a smile and ran to her room. Lana smirked, this was to easy. She walked and was met with one of her commanders.
"Lady Lana! The troops are gathered and are awaiting your orders!" He said.
"Good! It's time to give them some motivation!" Lana declared.
She walked out on a balcony and began her speech.
"You began with nothing. Now you stand inside the base you have built. The Empire grows stronger every day. You have done well! But make no mistake! Your work has just begun. It's time to to fight. To sacrifice, and do as your superiors toll you without question. When you grow tired, when you wish for the pain to end, I want you to think about the future we are striving for. The jedis and the Republic are a threat to our perfect world! They are our enemies! Destroy them... or be destroyed!" Lana finished and her troops saluted her.
Smirked at their loyalty Lana went back inside to give Ruby her gift. She did not want Ruby to hear the speech due to the risk of her thinking that Lana was just a tyrant. That could cause problems.
In the meantime Team JNPR was preparing for their mission. They were gonna assault a smaller base to help attack the bigger one. They all had similar thoughts.
"Crazy huh? Getting involved in some future tech army is not what I expected when I came to Beacon!" Jaune said.
"Non of us did. Yet here we are, Team JNPR cought up in a war!" Ren said as got his weapons.
"A war that we might end up dying in!" Pyrrah said before she smiled "But at least we had a good time with eachother!".
Jaune smiled "We'll make it through this! It's only a smaller base!".
"Yeah! Let's break some legs!" Nora said cheerfully.
If only they knew that it would not be that easy. Since the base was guarded by an enemy that they did not know about.
At the targeted base, said enemy stood ready to protect it.
Standing 2.18 meters tall. The Yellow skin colored creature with black tattoos, yellow eyes and 8 horns around his head the brute hungered to drive his weapon through his mortal enemies that his sole purpose for living was to kill every single one of them.
Having gone through vicious training and torture. This monster has been bread to become an Savage killing machine. A role he was more than happy to cary out.
Back at the Empire's main base. Lana entered Ruby's room with a box in her hands. Ruby herself was resting on her bed, but sat up when she heard Lana enter.
"I'm here with your gift my little rose!" Lana said as she heled out the box.
Ruby jumped on her bed and opened the box. She gasped when she saw what it was. She took it out and pressed a button on it. An hissing sound was heard as a crimson energy blade was now in the young Rose's hands.
She had gotten her own lightsaber.
Lana went behind her and placed her hands on Ruby's shoulders as said girl stared at the weapon in her hands.
"You are ready!" Lana declared with a sith smile.
Ruby smiled. But it was not a normal smile. It was not the sweet and innocent smile that she was known for. It was darker and more sinister...
It was a sith smile.
"Cooool!" Ruby said as her silver eyes truned yellow.
