Chapter 7

Balance of Rebellion pt 1

Okay, guys. I'm back for some more fun in a Galaxy far far away. But first, let's get to the reviews.

SaurusRock625: I figured of all of them, he was the most likely.

Gamelover41592: We went through a hole thing on this in PMs. But I'm sorry for confusing you and making you think that Lincoln ditched Katooni and Gunji. For the record, he did not and they are with Hondo.

DragonEmperor999: Clad you liked all the chapters so far.

AnimeGoji91: No. Because Jar Jar is a good guy.

00RaiserGundam: In Legends, a good chunk of Jedi have used Force Lightning. It's not what you have. It's how you use it.

And now, my friends... Let's kick it up!

Within the walls of the Loud House, Lucy was sitting on her knees while meditating.

"I am one with the Force and the Force is with me. I am one with the Force and the Force is with me." Lucy repeated to herself before she suddenly found herself brought out of her trance by the faint sound of sobbing coming from outside. She then pulled her jacket to her wand made her way down stairs. Upon exiting the house. Lucy saw a girl in red winter gear throwing a large amount of sporting gear in to a barrel. She then noticed a can of lighter fluid. Upon seeing the brunet girl pulling a flip lighter, Lucy reached out with the Force and pulled the lighter to her hand. "What do you think you're doing? She asked as she closed the lighter.

"What? How did you do that?" The brunet girl asked.

"That is not the issue here, Lynn! You could have blown your self up! What were you doing?" Lucy asked with mix of anger and concern in her voice.

"Because these..." Lynn began to say before stopping and saying what she truly meant. "Because I tore this family apart. Lori and Leni aren't talking. Lily, Lisa, and the twins are having nightmares, and Lincoln..." She couldn't finish before tears began to fall and she fell to her knees.

Upon seeing this sight, any and all rage left in Lucy at the events leading to her brother being where he was faded away as she she fell to her knees and pulled her older sister in to a tight hug.

"It's okay, Lynn. Everything is going to be alright." Lucy said, calling upon her knowledge of the Force to ease Lynn's stress. "Come on." I'm going to take you to bed." She said as she led Lynn in to the room that they had at one point shared and helped her in to her bed. Lucy couldn't bring herself to leave the still greatly saddened brunet and therefore elected to rest her body by continuing her meditation while as Lynn slept, she began to her a faint sound that resembled a pained singing.

(With Lincoln)

Within the walls of a crashed ship in a forgotten battle ground, the familiar viridian blade of a Lightsaber cut through the top before Lincoln and Zeb came down on cables.

"Okay, according the floor plan of this old Venator, the primary armory and medic holding areas should be this way." Lincoln said as he and the Lasat began to make there way down the halls before they eventually came to a room full of armor and weapons. Lincoln then began to look over the guns. "Spector 6 to Spector 1. The the gear we found is in pristine condition and we're moving on to the hanger." Lincoln informed Kanan over the com. "How are things on your end?" He asked.

"The weapons and most of the Droids should be able to be repaired. But the Destroyers, Vultures and Hyenas are all shot according to Spector 5." Kanan said as Lincoln arrived at the hanger of the Venator to find a decent amount of fighters.

"Alright, Sixer. Let's get to work." Lincoln said as they began looking over the ships in the hanger.

(Meanwhile in the Fortress Inquisitorious)

Petro was walking through the halls of the halls of the Fortress before coming to a room where the Grand Inquisitor waited for him.

"Third Brother. I have an assignment for you to make up for your recent failure on Kashyyyk." The Grand Inquisitor informed his subordinate before turning to him and showing him a holo of the Earth. "We have located a small collection of powerful Force sensitive children in a settlement on this backwater planet. Take a squad of Purge Troopers to retrieve them for our ranks." He instructed, gaining a bow from the younger Inquisitor.

"At once, Grand Inquisitor." Petro said before leaving the room.

"So, he's giving you another chance." The voice of a man of advanced years came from the shadows. "Well, if you fail again, I could use some help in my endeavors." He said.

"Thanks for the offer, First Brother. But I have no desire to search for tombs and fairytales." Petro said before he continued on his way.

'Trust me, boy. Soon, you will crave the power the Vally will give to me.' The first brother thought before walking out of the shadows to reveal a bald man wearing black robes with red shoulder pads and a strange thin black device over his eyes.

Petro the exited the fortress and boarded his TIE Striker and flew up to a black triangular ship known as a Purge Destroyer before said ship jumped in to Hyperspace.

(With the Spectors)

Hera and Sabine were finishing up the manifest for their dead drop to Fulcrum as Zebb was pulling up the last of the crates holding the last of the weapons.

"Why aren't Kanan and the kid helping with this?" The Lasat asked in frustration.

"They're going through the maps in the Holocrons to see if they can find the last one." Sabine explained before, as if on cue, the two Jedi came walking out the Ghost.

"Any luck?" Hera asked.

"I'll say. It's on Dantooine." Lincoln said with a smile which gained a confused look from Zeb.

"What's so good about Dantooine?" Zeb asked with a raised brow.

"It's extremely remote. But can connect to a few hyperspace lanes that aren't on public record anymore." Kanan explained.

"Best part. There's an old Jedi Enclave that fell out of use after the first purge and the Surik betrayal." Lincoln said as Hera picked up on what he was leading towards.

"That sounds like it could make a good base." Hera noted. I figure, we can check the place out while Lincoln gets the last Holocron." Kanan said, gaining a nod from Hera before the crews of the Rogue Shadow and the Ghost entered their respective ships and and took off.

As the Shadow continued through the Hyperspace lanes that would lead them to Dantooine, Sabine took notice of a look Lincoln's face.

"You still worried about that vision?" Sabine asked, gaining a sight from the white haired Jedi.

"I'm just concerned that they'll be in trouble and I won't be ready." Lincoln said before he felt Sabine's on his own.

"Don't worry. I'll be right there with you. We all will." Sabine said as she placed her forehead to Lincoln's own before she got up. "I've got something I have to check on." She said while walking out of the cockpit of the ship and in to the cargo bay where she took off her helmet placed down a com disk before the image of a young man in grey and yellow Mandalorian armor appeared in front of her before taking off his helmet to show short black hair.

"Hey, Sabine. Nice of you to call your big brother." The young man said with a chuckle which Sabine happily returned.

"Good to see you, Tristan. How are things at home?" Sabine asked her brother.

"Many of the clans are getting more and more restless. Between the Empires restrictions on weapon development and 'acquisition' of our Bescar. I can all but guarantee more than a few of the clan leaders would be happy to have a sit down with your friends." Tristen said.

"Well, that's both good and bad to hear." Sabine said, angered at the Empire's boot being more and more firmly placed on the throat of Mandalor and yet... Her Manalorian spirit burned with thought of the glory of her people united against the Empire in battle. "And that side project I've had you working on?" She asked.

"Things have been slow going. But theres only one thing left for it. Hopefully we, it'll be ready soon." Tristan said before the young Wren sibling heard a beeping.

"Looks like I'm coming up on my destination. I'll talk you soon." Sabine said before putting her helmet on as her brother did the same.

"Remember. All you have to do is call and I'll be there. This is the way." Tristan said, gaining a nod from Sabine.

"This is the way." Sabine repeated before cutting the call.

The Ghost and the Shadow above a planet before flying down in to the planet's atmosphere before landing near an ancient compound in the middle of vast grassland.

"Okay, this place could work. We'll take a look around." Hera said as Lincoln noticed the Bat appear in front of him.

"I'll be back once I have the last Holocron." Lincoln said before pulling down a red speeder-bike with a pointed front and got on, riding off in to the distance.

A short ride later, Lincoln arrived outside a small structure tucked away in the plains. Upon approaching the building, the doors opened for him with out the need for him to make contact or to call upon the Force.

Once inside, the walls began to fade away. Suddenly, Lincoln saw two buttons in front of him and two energy fields, his prize inside one and in the other...

"Lynn." Lincoln said in shock at the site of his unconscious elder sister.

"Your task is simple. Choose to save one and destroy the other." A voice said to Lincoln.

"No! I won't destroy my sister!" Lincoln shouted in defience.

"Was she not the one who betrayed you? Was she not the one who shunned you? Is she not the very reason that you have been made to suffer in battle time and again?" The voiced asked of the young Jedi.

"That betrayal gave me purpose, that shunning increased my views and my family more than I ever imagined, and those battle have made me strong. But even without all of that..." Lincoln paused before he looked at the sleeping brunet. "She is family and I would never sacrifice her or anyone else I loved for power." He said, growing at the final words.

"Nor would the Prodigal. The voice said before the void faded away, leaving the Blue Holocron. Lincoln then took the device in his hand before it began to glow as it and the two others in his bag floated up and activated revealing the ancient Jedi who made them. Bastila Shan, a dark skinned bald man known as Jolee Binodo, and finally, a Cathar woman known as Juhani.

"The tests are complete. You have done well." Jolee said with a nod.

"Now, the location of your prize shall be known too you." Juhani said before a map of a portion of the Outer Rim appeared before a small planet was highlighted.

"Go to Deralia, claim the rite, and may the Force be with you." Bastilla said before the Holocrons. Deactivated and floated to the ground before Lincoln picked them up and placed them in his bag.

Minutes later Lincoln was walking back to his speeder-bike with a smile on his face, satisfied with his work before suddenly, her heard a sound that he recognized. It sounded like the exact same as as the pearl in his Lightsaber made before he placed it in. Slowly, he began to follow the sound before coming to a small cave entrance which led him in to a long tunnel. After several minutes of walking, the young Jedi arrived in a cavern that was covered floor to ceiling in crystals, all of which radiated with a connection to the Force. But only one tucked in to corner.

Upon picking up the crystal, a smile graced Lincoln's face. He then dropped to his knee and began to focus to attempt to make contact with Lucy. That's when he sensed it.

"Oh no." Lincoln said before rushing out of the cave and racing back to the ships to inform the his team that the Empire was going to Earth.
