Carrie sat in her chambers, meditating, when Master Yoda entered her chambers.
"Good morning Master." She said as she opened her eyes.
"Padawan." Yoda greeted. "Well, I trust you are?"
Carrie nodded.
"Good, a matter we must discuss." Said Yoda, as he sat down across from her. "A disturbance in the force I have sensed."
"What kind?" Asked Carrie.
"Know, I do not." Said Yoda. "But, be mindful you must be, Involve you I feel it will."
Meanwhile, Some long time ago.
Far off in the Milky Way System, On the familiar planet of Earth, A space shuttle launched into the stratosphere and began its flight through the gravitational pull of the planet, It opened it's hatch and a smaller craft emerged, and prepared to launch itself.
"Canabal, this is Farscape 1, I am free and flying!" Said the Pilot to mission control. "Are you with me there Mama Bear?"
"Oh yeah Farscape." Said his friend, DK. "I'm reading you loud and clear."
"Authorising flight acceleration to initiating sequencing…" He punched in the appropriate buttons. "NOW!"
"Roger Farscape, you are go for insertion procedure." Said DK.
And so the small shuttle blasted out of the rocket, and zoomed over the planet. "Approaching maximum velocity in 21 seconds." Said Farscape.
The ship continued to rocket around the planet.
"15 seconds."
The craft zoomed along at top speeds!
"Entering critical apery phase!" Saif Farscape…
"Farscape, hold up a moment!" Said DK from back at mission control.
"Huh? Can I hold a what?" Asked Farscape.
"Meteorology reports some kind of electromagnetic wave." Said DK in alarm. "Repeat, some kind of wave! John, do you read me?"
"Yeah I read you!" Said John as he tried to gain control, but the shutter kept going faster, DK was trying to tell him something, than another voice came in, it sounded like his father but there was too much interference to tell, than suddenly, a great blue wormhole grabbed a hold of the ship, it dragged Farscapes ship into it and was gone!"
Meanwhile,
"And there you have, the Seven Galaxies." Said Master Sinube, as he directed the Classes attention to each of the assigned sectors. "Our Galaxy, the main one, Federation Space, Arm Space, Galaxy 4, Star Space, Landsraad space also known as the Imperium, and finally, the Zord Galaxy, the most mysterious one."
Most of the adolescent Padawans in the class were younger than Carrie, she was 21 years old, and the rest of them were 14 to 17. It all just felt awkward for her, well, at least it was better than High School.
She snapped back to reality as he heard Master Sinube utter one last phrase. "Can anyone tell me the details about at least one other Galaxy?"
Carrie quickly raised her hand.
"Ah, Padawan White." Sinube nodded.
"Why is the Arm space referred to as such?" She asked.
"An excellent question my child." Said Master Sinube, nodding, as he pulled up a Holo Map of Arm Space. "The Galaxy known as arm space is called as such, due to the the various sectors of it's Galaxies being divided around it's core in a spiral, distance between each sector is… well, incalculable per Cycles, Each planet, depending on the arm they are situated in, has its own orbit and ecosystem, more diverse than our own."
The Padawans silently groaned as Master Sinube droned on about the Arm Galaxy, evan Carrie was beginning to regret evan asking about it, God only knew the details of the other Galaxies.
Just then, Master Windu entered the chamber.
"Excuse me Master Sinube." He said, gesturing to Carrie. "If I may borrow Padawan White for a moment."
"Oh, not at all Master Windu." Said Sinube. "We were just going over a most interesting lecture of the other galaxies, particularly the Amr Galaxy in the-"
"And you have my thanks for that." Said Windu, raising a hand. "In fact, That's what I wanted to talk to Carrie about…"
Carrie blinked as she stood up and followed Master Windu out of the class, they left the chambers and walked down a hall before stopping, Windu turned to Carrie.
"What is it, Master?" Asked Carrie.
"Has Master Yoda talked to you about some Preminsiion?"
"Yes, has he shared this with you too?" Asked Carrie.
"Yes, and coincidently, It originates in arm space, perhaps some conflict of some kind."
"But why would the force inform us about it?" Asked Carrie.
"The force is elusive and Vague at times." Said Windu. "We may not always understand it's messages, and Something tells me this needs to be investigated. The Council has already agreed to an expedition, and You will be a part of it."
Carrie was surprised. "Thank you Master, But why?"
Windu paused, not immediately responding. "I guess you'll know when you get there."
Carrie was not sure what Windu meant by that.
"Well talk more later." Mace replied. "For now, return to class.
And he turned and walked away, Carrie watched him go, before turning around and going back to class.
Meanwhile, In Arm Space.
Far away in another galaxy, A great organic vessel sat amongst the cloud of asteroids, while its crew, or rather itants, inhabitants, scrambled as they searched for their missing companion, John Chriton, who had joined the crew of moya many a time ago, and had long embarked on many adventures with them, now was in a state of irritation and disbelief.
"Oh you have got to be kidding!" He said as he stormed towards the bridge. "Tell me this is some kind of sick punchline coming!
"Unfortunately John, It's true." Said Zhaan over the coms, she was a spiritual being called a Delvian.
"Right, Abso-fucking-lutling great!" John cursed as a Luxan Warrior named D'Argo walked beside him.
"We must go after him." He said.
"No, pods out there would just compound the problem." Said John as they reached the navigation chamber, they were joined by two other women, A Sebacean named Aeryn and a Nebari named Chiana.
"No change in his course." Said Zhaan. "He's accelerating away from Moya."
"Let's be anything but surprised." Said Aeryn disparagingly. "Our weakest link is often the smallest."
"Can't we do something?!" Asked Chiana. "He's about to exit the asteroid!"
"Peacekeepers haven't spotted us yet." Said Zhaan as she kept tabs on Rygel's movements. "But they will shortly, Pilot!"
"I shall attempt to contact him again." Replied the servicer of Moya, as he made contact with Rygel's ship. "Rygel, please respond!"
Out in the asteroids, The ship piloted by the deposed Royal Hynerian was set on its course, as its diminutive pilot ignored pilots' calls.
"Your eminence." Said Pilot at last. "Please, respond!"
Rygel finally answered the call, allowing for the rest of the crew to contact him.
"Rygel." Came the voice of D'Argo. "Listen to me, and listen to me very, very, carefully."
What was said next, John did not understand like the others. "The hell did you just say?" Asked John.
"Something about his corpse and uh… body function." Said Chiana nervously.
"Oh that'll help." John scoffed.
"Rygel, what you are doing is wrong." Said Zhaan.
"To you maybe." Said Rygel dismissively.
"Rygel!" Said Aeryn. "They'll take your head off, whatever deal you cut with them, Crais will never honor!"
"Rygel, kill your engines, float dead, maybe they won't spot you." Said John. "Let's talk about this!"
"And isn't this the whole point, Chriton?" Asked Rygel. "That's all your people ever do is talk! I am a Dominar of action!
On the other side of the Asteroid belt, The ship owned by the one's called "Peacekeepers" received the signal from Rygel's ship.
"One unarmed transport flying straight towards us." Said Bialar Crais, Captain of the Peacekeepers as he confided with his ally. "It makes no sense.
The creature Scorpius pondered this too, He was a half Sebacean, Half Scarren creature, dressed entirely in black leather. "A pity we can't follow its trail back to the leviathan." He said simply before asking. "Any other vessels in motion out there?"
"Just our own outbound marauder." Said Crais as he paced the room. "With the alien girl you adopted."
Scorpius was irked by this last comment. "Have you found my security officer assigned to watch her?"
"Why would the high Hynerian be traveling alone?" Crais asked as he sat at his desk.
Scorious rose from his sitting position and moved off. "Perhaps, he wishes to become part of your… collection." He said, glancing at the Hynerian head on a cushing podium.
Crais frowned. "This is just a game to you isn't it?"
"On the contrary." Said Scorpious. "I care a great deal about one thing, the knowledge of wormhole technology that the Human Chriton holds locked in his memory."
"Why bother?" Asked Crais. "There are already similar technologies to it, Hyperdrive engines, Stargates, whatever the Landsraad Spacing Guild does."
"Yes, but you forget." Scorpius replied. "Those technologies are restricted to the specific galaxies they come from. Our galaxy has never had that luxury before, But with Chriton, new possibilities are… open to us."
The Door opened and a contingent of guards came in.
"Sirs." Said the Commanding Officer. "This Hynerian royal was alone aboard the leviathan transport."
Rygel came into the room on his hover pad and addressed Crais. "You want the Leviathan? The Leviathan gunship offspring, the other escaped prisoners, the Defector Aeryn Sun."
Crais listened as Rygel went on. "And especially, you want the one called Chriton."
Scorpious turned around. "Well, I want my Freedom." Said Rygel. "Interested?"
Meanwhile,
In the Hanger of the Jedi temple, Carrie made her way over to a group of Jedi as Master Yoda and Master Windu addressed them, among them was Draden Aeg, and his Padawan, Straig, Lelo Ruse, a fellow veteran of Naboo, and Kazdan Paratus, an Aleenan Jedi and the temple mechanic.
"Called out to us, the Force has." Said Master Yoda. "A Powerful disturbance in Arm space there is, investigate it, we must."
"But why Master?" Asked Master Ruse. "If it's in one of the neighboring galaxies then what concern is it to us? Or the Senate?"
"If the Force is informing us of this." Said Master Windu. "Then it must be of great importance or urgency."
"Well, the Peacekeepers of the region have been up in arms lately." Conceded Master Aeg. "Something about renegade Prisoners killing their people."
"Then that's a good place to start." Said Windu.
"But what about the Senate?" Asked Carrie. "Shouldn't intergalaxy travel have to be run by them?"
"Already permission we have.." Said Yoda. "From Chancellor Palpatine."
"Oh that's good." Said Carrie.
"Anyway." Said Windu, eyeing each of the group. "I have chosen you all specifically for this expedition to Arm Space, based on your unique skills alone. Together, we will travel there through special Hyperspace lanes, find out what's going on and see what we can do."
"Ah, it should be a grand adventure, Master." Said Kazdan enthusiastically.
Carrie couldn't help but agree.
"May the force be with you." Said Yoda, as Windu led the group to the awaiting ship.
Once on board, they took off and left the planet Coruscant, beginning their journey into a new frontier.
