(SOME NAMES HAVE BEEN CHANGED)



I sit in meditation, remembering each Jedi I knew or trained , their faces ghostly now, my thoughts wander in and out, only the force containing it properly! I look back at the ones lost in this annihilation! I remember them, I have memorialized them, with my training, and the training of the younglings, the bear clan prodigy!! the blaster bolts flashing, and whizzing by my head and body, only piercing my outer robes, and my tunic sleeve.

The clone troopers have them surrounded, my friends, along with me guardians of the bear clan!

as my protocol droid scans for life forms, i blast away at these cloned protectors, turned bad, turned by a simple little code, CODE 66! falling the clones, with the destiny's blasters, wall fragments are blown away revealing a small group of adult jedi, ten in fact, surrounding forty carbonite cases, in each a child, frozen and waiting for a new life, elsewhere.....



....on the ground lay my friend, and wife, a forbidden marriage between two jedi, but there she lay none the less, her master ,she knew our secret, but never once did she say anything to either of us. i gather her body and take aboard the destiny, peacefully laying at rest, i swallow my loss, and being a jedi knight, i return and help the others!

My protocol droid , designated "12", he helps with the wounded, as well the forty carbonite cases. we stow them in the cramped cargo hold! the cases now safe, and secured, i program the destiny for launch, the engines hum and begin to roar slightly, "12" engages the hyper driver, and with swirling of stars, before us, the destiny jets through a hyperspace tunnel, then disappears into the void.

"12' has the duties of pilot , as i go and ready my bride for her funeral! her master looks at me as i make my way to my wife’s sleep chamber.
with un-easiness in the air, her master comes in the small sleeping chamber, saddened by her Palawan’s death, she consoles me, being knelt down beside my wife, her master gently places her right hand on my left shoulder! I fight to hold the tears back, as does my wife’s master, both her eyes well up, and two large singular tears stream down her cheeks, with a confirming grip, she walks away!



"Aya!" i speak out softly to my fallen wife...."Aya,you are free now, free from this evil that has befallen the galaxy's jedi, you are home ! i will join you someday, but now we must find sanctuary!" i stand and retrieve a death bag, and place her inside, sealing it making a vacuumed seal closer around her deceased body.

"master Aldan, we are coming out of hyper drive, seems the main computer has been damaged! also four signals’ have been locked on by our targeting computers, they seem to be hostiles!" i finish wrapping my wife, and secure her body to the bunk, then limp to the thingypit, aya's master limping right beside me. "San-Vii, deep range fighters have us locked, we won't survive this !" with worry in my voice! "Als-da, we will survive this, and the bear clan will make it to Baullyfoure! the force will protect us!" spoken calmly and assertively, i raise my head, and fiddle with the console, "12" also works with the flight computer!

With all intent and purposes of destroying the destiny, the fighters attack, laser bolts rip through the hull, striking and killing five adult jedi !
The blasts rip through their bodies like a hot knife through butter! San-Vii , leaves the thingypit, and makes her way back to others and tries to help them, when suddenly the destiny's hull fractures! And buckles inward, the fighters cease their attack, as they put some distance between them and the destiny! a sudden burst of light, and seconds later a disgusting thump, as the destiny explodes into several large pieces!

The emergency life support shielding devices close the breaches in the shattered ship's hull! Shattered, the destiny floats for a few seconds, then she falls from the heavens. Fiery piece shatter once more as they hit the atmosphere of an uncharted planet....



Shattered, the destiny floats for a few seconds, then she falls from the heavens. Fiery piece shatter once more as they hit the atmosphere of an uncharted planet....

Most of the destiny's smaller hull pieces burn up upon reentry, but the larger pieces, fall , spiraling down the surface of this unknown planet's floor! The first piece of ship's hull we see quietly falls, to the snow capped mountain region, suddenly, crashing and banging noises, as the hull piece crashes through trees and rocks, until a loud thudding crashing sound is heard as the hull piece suddenly, stops with a sudden jolt, tossing the inhabitants of the hull piece, to fly around the wreckage, some thrown from the wreckage, and landing, in a darkened place, to be revealed as a snowy cave as the passengers awaken! 20 carbonite cases are strewn and scattered over the cave floor.

Another hull piece crashes fiery into a wooded area, and comes to rest on the bank of an alien riverbed, the inhabitants in this piece are tossed and hurled around as well, Als-da Aldan is thrown against the hull wall and his left leg is pinned to the floor by broken beams from the destiny's infra-structure, he lay un-conscious, as do the others. 5 carbonite cases still attached and secured to their resting place, as they were put their on curoscant.


A third hull piece bounces off a lake, and skims the water, until it comes to a rest in lush wheat field, this piece is the smallest hull piece, but has per capita more inhabitants, most inhabitants have been thrown free of the wreckage, scattered around, lay 10 of the carbonite cases
all intake, but violently thrown around. the protocol droid "12" lay in disarray!

The second crash site...Als-da Aldan trying to free himself, he sees twenty pairs of small feet, and one pair of adult feet. Aldan figures the carbonite cases malfunctioned and thawed during their un-consciousness.
"Master Aldan, easy ! we will try to free you! it maybe a bit tricky. please bare with me, Master!" as calmly as he could speak, Tomesh , looked inside himself, and focused his mind on the steel infrastructure pinning Master aldan to the floor! Tomesh, feels the force flowing within him, he feels his strength increasing, a sudden calm over comes both mesh and Master Aldan! "i feel it lifting Master." Tomesh spoke softly. "padawan, let me help you? together we should be able to move this carnage!" I told Tomesh. we both went into a force driven state of peace, and with out failure the carnage moved, my leg moved with it. "Tomesh, use this!" Tomesh reaches for the saber i just had taken from my belt. "Master aldan, i thought the trident was only legend, a myth! but i am holding it in my hand!" Tomesh, was one that didn't excite easily, but he was, quite excited.
The tri-dent saber of grand master D' Amascus, the master of us all.
Tomesh looked the saber over before he used it to free me. A tri-bladed light saber, the central saber hilt was much like any other saber hilt, except for the detailing and intricacies, (the carving) the central shaft looked most like mace windu's saber, except the colorings, Aldan's tri-dent was mostly silver, except for the blackened highlights, the main hilt a bit longer than your standard twelve inches, closer to fourteen inches in total length. but the tri-dent got its name from the extra emitters on either side of the main hilt, these smaller 4 inch sabers, lay close to the main hilt shaft, but each had the same pommel, rounded, with squared blocks that circled the pommel ball of each hilt. The tri-dent saber weighing heavier than most sabers, Tomesh had no problem with its weight. Tomesh ignites my tri-dent saber, and ignition reveals three fiery orange blades, the central blade four inches longer than the two outer blades, the smaller emitters sat just one half inch below the main emitter. the saber ignited, now looks more like a broadsword than a rapier. Tomesh smiled in amazement at the saber, I hold the debris up, as well my leg high enough, that Tomesh can sever the beams in my thigh!...Focusing on the force to control my pain, Tomesh severs the beams, the debris shifts, and with out a glance from Tomesh, i hold the debris off my leg and body with the ever present force. Tomesh hands my saber back to me, and he and i move the debris then set it aside. Tomesh, surprised i remained as calm as i had been during this ordeal.

(some in observered actions for the story to move abit)
Meanwhile in the depths of space, a super star destroyer of the eclipse class, slowly navigates through space. Afew hundred yards off the eclipse's hull, a smaler ship approaches, a tydirium class shuttle. abord the shuttle the flight crew, eight black guards, two carbonite cases.

As the shuttle prepares to dock, the eight black guard stand, and prepare the carbonite cases for deployment to their new reting place.

A board the eclipse's docking bay, the shuttle lands, a smathering of troops and deck officers welcome the ship's arrival. the exhaust ports spouting off gases, the landing ramp lowers at the same time the black guard walk down it, four to each carbonite case, one at each corner. A deck officer leads the to their quarters.

The deck officer, stands aside as the black guard enter the room, with the cases, they set them atop piers , and set the controls for the smallest case, to thaw! The black guard leave the room, an errie red glow fill the darkened room. the smaller case begins to hum and crackle, slowly a nude form exit the case, and slowly adjusting herself to the light, the female makes her way the larger the cases and sets its controls to thaw, a slower thaw is to take place, the nude apprentice kneels in the corner and begins to meditate.

(badguy's naration)
I lay in my box, laid in in a suspended state for what seems an eternity, fianlly i have been loosed upon the galaxy to do the one thing i was created to do.......destroy JEDI! slowly i rise , reaching my hand and fingers over the edge of my case, my blured by the freeze, I hear my apprentice's hearts beating, she kneels far from me, for she knows what i truly am when i come from my box. She knows the fever as well as i do myself! With my hand, i pull my thawed dripping body to a sitting position, my head bent down slightly, slowly gaining strength! I look around the room! i see her! My apprentice Ki' Ro-Nin B' haulk! i can feel her thoughts with the dark force, and i can since her movements as she closes her gait to me! Invigerating, my senses pure, My mind alert. I slowly exit my box, with her help she steadies me agaisnt the case, passionately she kisses me, as i do her in responce...I push her away,softly, and and i speak! "Ki' Ro-Nin, have we arrived so we may do our master's bidding!?" with a soft cold answer. "Yes Mi Lord, we are aboard the emperor's flag ship , Eclipse! our master awaits us!"

"then let us not keep him any longer!" just as coldly i return my answer to her. "Is my guard present?" "Yes Mi Lord, they await your commands!" we dress finally, and engage in a forbiden kiss once, more before I use my dark powers and send her across the room, with a force push, B' haulk, loves the attention! now we can further our master's wishes!

[Als-da Aldan]

sitting aloft her throne, in the command tower of the eclipse super star destroyer a small child like woman sits and glares at the passing of the galaxy in the tower's veiw ports.

"'Pa-cere, when will this overlord arrive before me!? i shall have him flogged with light whips for making me wait ! find him and his apprentice!" her voice raspy , much like the man she was cloned from, emperor palpatine. other features are noticed at different angles the light hits her face, one time she may have the appearance of a younger palpatine, , at other glances she may have just ghost features, her main appearance is not to be revealed yet!

the sith overlord Hiroku Backuro and his apprentice Ki' Ro-nin B'haulk enter the throne room. the black clothed red armored figures leave the chamber.

"Emperess! forgive our tardiness, but our carbonite........." interuppted by the emperess "keep me again, and i will exxpell you from the nearest vent shaft! Now tell me who you are and who sent you to me?!"

"Your master, and predecessor, emperor palpatine! you , and you alone know us. we two are as loyal to you as any that have come before us! and no child commands me so !" backuro glances at the emperess, an evil scary glance, which seems to have some force control behind it.

MEANWHILE

[Als-da Aldan]

using the medical equipment , tomesh begins to mend the wound i have received! he will make a great healer in time to come, fore the jedi will need as many healers and warriors as can be trained from the 40 bear clan younglings.

(the bearclan) a small faction of cloned jedi given as charges to als-da aldan, these forty younglings mere children now, but once grown to man or womanhood, the faces they bare will be of familiar long dead jedi.

[Als-da Aldan]

days have passed , my wounds and injuries are healing quite sufficiently, the bearclan younglings , those freed from their cases as we crashed, they have found me to be a guiding light, their champion. are we the only survivors or the others alive and trying to find us? a question i will meditate on . "twelve" my protocol droid, he helps tomesh keep the others safe, safe from what i ask myself, as i know and it in my bones as in the force. we are not safe, none of us, not as long as this LOOMING DARKNESS keeps hunting us like criminals.

i pitty the sith that tries to bring harm to this my family! darkness, as long as good and evil play this twisted game of chess with the jedi and the sith alike, THE LOOMING DARKNESS will prevail over us all!

[Als-da Aldan]

i must have hit my head harder than i remember. i look around, i see my bedroom in my dweling on naboo, is this a faint memory as the explosion seems to make my life pass before my eyes, or is this vision a dream, of things yet to happen. the others, i must help the others.....

[Als-da Aldan]

somewhere in the twilight of this un-charted planetoid, an evil sets its sights on a full out finishing battle between jedi and the sith, my hopes are that these younglings survive, for them and for her i will fight valiantly to the end of both, that they may survive.




an empty placid feild, merely weeds, and un seen lifeforms, are disturbed and destroyed by a dark imposing craft. the aries, hiroku backuro's personal shuttle, aboard this demonic ship, the sith over lord himself, and his ever present apprentice, ki'ro-nin b'haulk, and smathering of other mercenaries and dark force users.

all before this was dream , a dream master als-da aldan was emersed in during the aftermath of the crash.......the darkness is coming!

[Als-da Aldan]

looking around, hoping to see familar faces, either dead or alive! "i see myself strewn about like discarded trash, the ship in peices, bodies laying everywhere, several carbonite caes, all empty, areas pooled in various colors of blood, along side me i see my companions, they are dark, and fierce looking in their appearancem and , i dont know these faces, or do i, i do, i know them as if they were created from my very being!"

"overlord ! ship housed jedi! from the pools of blood, i count ten speices! a couple of droids, and those you came here to destroy!"

"i to sense them ki'ro-nin! this was once his very ship, yes the bear clan were here also, and their guardians. give them their orders! and ki'ro-nin no survivors, except aldan!

"yes my master! the others will fall, and the emporess will preveil!" she bows and walks to the other, b'haulk gives the orders backuro set her to do, the small group disperses in several different directions.

"ki ro-nin, you will be at my side, together we will render aldan and those with him, useless!"

the two sith walk through the tall weeds, along the path created by the survivors, the ones now along side als-da aldan. for backuro a path that was pre-destined to walk the day he was created from aldan's dna!!!

[Als-da Aldan]

"master aldan, you were having a night mare! are you alright!?" great concern and well being was taken by the tone of the voices,a chill begins to fill the night air.not a chill from the cold, but a chill from the darkness that approaches. shaking the injuries off, i stand, wounded i stumble, but get to my feet and stand...... where is this evil chill coming from, within me, or around me. why is my saber been ignited, and laying on the ship's floor. why has any of this happened!? i look around once again, i see nothing but bodies, riped off limbs, bloody pools, "a nightmare indeed young one! are we dead, are they dead, is it an illusion, caused by the crash and the sustaine injuries. i think this to be why i feel this way, dazed, and confused, motionless, but yet standing!

bic;

"maste aldan the medication is begining to work, you are halucinating, the younglings are safe and well cared for." the droid repied to aldan.

"twelve, what happened!? where are we!?" "master our ship was attacked, and destroyed in the great crash, my sensors do not indicate any othe signs of life, but my sensors have been wrong before, and this little thumping we have encountered may ave loosened my relays, for my long range sensors are in-operable!"
