Simple an update. Enjoy!
The Colliding of Empires -Part VI
Vader rushed towards the location, where the noise came from, closely followed by the terrans. The people in his way barely managed to get out of the way, but the crowd seperated in front of them like the red sea in front of Moses and the israels, thought Rhodan.
A small alien being was on his knees in front of a stormtrooperofficer in a black uniform, talking with desperation in its voice to the human. Vader didn´t need a second look to identify the being as a female sullustan, chackling fast in her own
language.
"I don´t understand what you are saying and i don´t care about it." shouted the stormtrooperofficer. "Now step back into your place in the row, alien scum or else ... ." Trying to hit the woman with his fist, his arm went down, but was suddenly intercepted, when Major Kasom cought the mans wrist with his big hand. The huge ertruser squeezed the officers arm only lightly, but the face of the man showed his pain.
"Thats no way to treat a small and helpless woman." growled the ertruser. "Search for somebody your own size." With that he let go of the stormtrooper, who tried to grab his blaster.
"Thats enough." ordered Vader. "Whats going on here?" he demanded to know. He could feel the watchful eyes of his terran guests and cursed.
"Mylord, we were organizing the transport of the people living here for the evacuation." reported the stormtrooper. "We had no problems until this, this ... woman showed up and started talking gibberish. She is risking all our lives by slowing down the take offs." finished the officer with fury in his eyes.
"I see." rumbled Darth Vader. He turned to the woman from Sullust. "And your point?" he asked. The woman started to speak fast again and Vader even thought, he saw hope in her eyes. Didn´t she know, who he was? "Speak slower." he ordered. "I don´t understand anything." The sullustan obied his order. Slowly the picture became clear. When the woman was finished he started to explain the situation to the terrans. "Her name is Riel Subvas. She works in the raffining of the Tibannagas. As it seems she is also responsible for the orphaned child of her sister. The child and a friend obviously decided to play a game of hide and seek and now she has lost them."
"You mean, there are two children missing?" asked Rhodan.
"Exactly." confirmed Vader.
"In that case we have to form a searchparty." suggested Atlan.
"We don´t have the time and the men available to search for those non-human brats." protested the stormtrooperofficer, still holding his wrist.
Rhodan turned to the man, the cold look in his eyes caused the hardened stormtrooper to gulp. Impressive, thought Vader.
"You would talk otherwise, if it would be your child." Rhodan said to the man, contempt clearly audible in his voice. Turning back to Vader he added. "Lord Vader, if your men are unable to search for some children, my men are not."
Vader was tempted to choke the terran with the force for the insult of his troopers. After all, why should he, Darth Vader, Dark Lord oft the Sith, second-in-command of the empire, be interested in children. /You would talk otherwise, if it would be your child/ the terran had said. Something inside Vader made click. Search for children - search for his child - Luke.
"That won´t be necessary." stated the Dark Lord of the Sith. "We will search for them and we will find them."
"Mylord, there isn´t enough time for a concentrated search. In three hours the sun goes nova." protested the stormtrooperofficer. "We would only risk the lives of our men."
"You are right." stated Darth Vader. "And because of this i will take personal care of this situation."
"We´ll accompany you." offered Rhodan. His companions nodded.
"Then lets waste no more time." stated Darth Vader dry.

Update, yeah!!!
The Colliding of Empires - Part VI
It was an unusual group, that walked through the darkened streets and corridors of the flying city. The illumination had already been turned of and only the emergency-lights were working.
In front walked the small figure of the Sullustan woman, Riel Subvas, leading the group to the area of the doomed city her young niece was trusted with, since this was the area where the child and its friend were mostly hiding. The small non-human was closely followed by the towering figure of Darth Vader, who turned his head from side to side, as if listening to a voice, only he could hear. Behind the Sithlord Perry Rhodan and Atlan were walking, with closed helmets and following them, was the titanic figure of Takor Kasom.
Everybody of the small group was concentrated on the search, but also dealing with his or her own thoughts.
--------------
Riel Subvas prayed, that they would find her niece in time.
Since the death of her sister, the little girl had been her only relative. If anything happened to the child, it would be her fault. She had known, that the facility was going to be evacuated, because of the Nova, but didn´t wanted to terrify the little child. So she had allowed her niece and her friend to go playing, while she was tacking care of their luggage.
Riel and her sister had belonged to a group of students on Sullust, who had sympathisised with the rebellion and protested against the harsh rule of the empire, its way of dealing with things.
The Subvas-sisters had been banned by the executives of the Soorusub-Company, that formed the government of Sullust and had close connections and businesscontracts with the empire. Forced to earn money for a living, they had found work in the imperial tibannagas-mine. And although they earned less than their human-coworkers, it was more than they had gotten from their homeworld, that had abandoned them.
The irony of it wasn´t lost to Riel Subvas.
And now again the fate of her small family was in the hands of the empire.
Or worse, not in the hands of the empire, but in the hands of Darth Vader. Riel knew the stories about the emperors executor, the stories about his unforgiving, harsh nature, the countless people he had killed or for whose deaths he was responsible.
And now he was her only hope.
Rumors claimed he had special powers or that he once had been a Jediknight. If that was true, there might still be a chance for her niece.
------------
While searching with the force for any signature of live around them, Darth Vader was thinking about the situation he was in.
Here he was, Darth Vader, Sithlord, executor of the empire, proxy to the emperor, second-most-powerful man of the galaxy, wasting his time searching for a useless child, that had decided to play hide and seek, while soon the entire world around it was going to be destroyed.
Just because of a few words a stranger from outside the galaxy had said.
So what was he doing? And more important, why?
Sithlords had never been the ones to search for lost children or to help older ladies over the streets. Neither had the Jedis, if there were matters more important.
/Another pathetic liveform/ whispered a small voice in his head.
/Qui-Gon would have/ whispered another voice /as well as your mother/.
/Anakin Skywalkers mother/ Darth Vader thought back.
/Anakin Skywalkers mother, Darth Vaders mother, YOUR MOTHER/ whispered the second voice again.
Darth Vader gritted his teeth. When would he finally be free from his weak, old self?
A self dependent on the acceptance, the faith, the trust of others. And which had only fully been accepted by Qui-Gon and his mother.
If Obi-Wan would have shown more faith in him, he wouldn´t have tried to hold his Padawans training back.
If his wife would have had more faith in him, she wouldn´t have left him. He would have been able to protect her. They would have been happy together.
Palpatine seemed to have accepted him but it hadn´t taken long to discover, that the emperor was only interested in his power.
Ever since realising this, Vader had his own agenda. Of course, there were others, but they were inferior to him, weren´t of the same importance to him, if they were loyal and succeded, they would be rewarded, if they failed or turned traitor, they would be exterminated.
Those were the thoughts running trough Vaders masked head.
Qui-Gon was dead.
His mother was dead.
Padme was dead.
Palpatine would SOON BE dead.
So why did he care? Or better, since when?
Vader tried to remember the way he had acted for the last months and it didn´t took long for him, to discover the point in time, where things had started to change.
Bespin. Where he had first met with his son.

Update! Update!
All out there have a happy new year.
The Colliding of Empires
Bespin.
Always Bespin!
Vader realised his thoughts were running in circles inside his head. The idea infurated him. He also realised, that before Bespin, before the events on the first Death Star, he somehow had lost his focus, his purpose. After his rise from the lavapit, his efforts had been concentrated on eridicating the Jediknights, but then he had somehow lost it. Oh yes, the anger was still there, glowing on a small flame, enough to keep him alive, but the determenation was gone. He had killed hundreds, if not thousands of beings with his own hands, millions more had died on his orders, he had conquered more wordls than he could count for his Master, as if not one of Palpatines hands or an ordinary Admiral of the Empire could have done the same.
It was a painful thought, but Vader had to admit to himself that he had wasted time. Time he could have used to overthrow Palpatine and to take care of things himself. All those years of sheming, of gathering informations and small assets, trying to uncover his Masters secrets, while dreaming to use them against the emperor, had only been dreams.
Dreams unworthy for somebody with his power. It was an infurating thought. The power of the Chosen One. He wouldn´t needed his son, to do, what was to do.
/Do it, or do it not. There is no try/. Funny, thought Vader, who had reached a decision, that in the end the little troll was right about something.
Palpatines days were counted. He would make sure of that as soon as he was finished here.
--------------
Behind the Sithlord Perry Rhodan and Atlan were talking to each other. They were discussing their observations from the hangar.
"What do you think of the behaivior of the officer?" asked Rhodan.
"The one who tried to beat Subvas? ansked Atlan back. "I don´t know. But only ten percent of the people evacuated were nonhumans and they were lined up in seperated rows from each other. Could it be some kind of institutionalized rascism?"
"Hard to believe. After all they were living under a single government for twentyfive millenia. That should have been enough time to overcome any kind of prejeduce."
Atlan gave his friend a pityful look. "Your optimism always amazes me, Perry. Even if they lived together for thousands of years, the majority of people stayed with their own kind. Just look back at the situation in our own galaxy. For more than tenthousand years the beings of countless worlds lived together under the rule of the empire of Arkon. They traded with each other, they lived in peace with each other, but they didn´t lived together. They don´t do now. And as we were told, the majority of beings in this galaxy consists of humans."
"I wonder how they dealt with their problems as a democracy." mused Rhodan. "After all in a democracy, the majority decides which course will be followed."
"And since the majority are humans, they are the ones who set the standards, much to the disappointment of the nonhumans. Such a system simply can´t work for long. Especially in times of crisis."
"And because of this, the SolarEmpire was never interested in conquering and integrating other species under its rule. It is also the major argument for some people at home to claim, that a multispecies empire can only be ruled by a dictatorship. Something nobody of us wants." explained Rhodan.
"Yes, but here they have obviously decided to try the other way and have, as a result to deal with an uprising. I ... . Yes, what is it Kasom?"
"I registered a single liveform, fivty meters in front of us." explained the tall ertruser.
"Only a single liveform? I thought we were searching for two children." wondered Rhodan.
"Its only a single liveform. And it is human." stated the USO-Specialist.
Atlan and Rhodan exchanged an alarmed look.
"Interesting." muttered Rhodan.
