This is a new story that I'm starting. It's not really a what if, but I guess it could be. It's 1000 years after the Battle of Endor. Everything that has happened in the books etc. has still happened. The Yuuzhan Vong where pushed back, and pursued into their own galaxy. They are completely gone. Luke, Leia, etc. are all dead, except for C-2PO and Artoo-Detoo, who are both in the care of Jania Solo's decendants. But things are changing. A new leader has taken over the Reoublic, and things aren't as peacful as they should be...
Star Wars
Dark Republic
A story by Dark_Luke Skywalker
1000 years have passed since the end of the Galactc civil war. The heros of that final battle, Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa Solo, Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian, Wedge Antilles, and the others, have since passed on. The only 'survivours' are the antuiqued droids C-3PO and R2-D2, under the care of the decencents of Jania Solo and Jegged Fel.
But times are chanigng. A new leader has taken control of the Galactic Republic, and things aren't as peaceful as they have been...
The massive Sun Crusher /Liberty\ cruiser along its course in space, weapon systems tracking the fleeing starship ahead of it. Bright purple laser fire, the product of a millenium of weapons research, lanced out, catching the ship of in its 'midesction'. Fire exploded from the vessel, spraying into space. The Star Crusher, a fourteen kilometre long ship, shaped vuagely like a giant scissors, advanced. This was one of the smallest crusiers in use by the Republic fleet. In the days of the Galactic Empire, 1000 years ago, the vessel would have been considered enoumres. Now it was simply a common vessel, in use by many private defence forces. They had no choice. It was 900 years ago, during the height of the war with the Yuuzhan Vong war, that the ship was created. Directly preceeding the destruction of Coruscant and Kuat. In response to the deaths of many of the New Republic's best leaders. It had taken 300 more years, but the Republic was strong once more. And the Yuuzhan Vong had paid the ultimate price. The Republic fleets had pursued them back into their own galaxy, destroying as they came. Not a single Yuuzhan Vong survived the Great Purge. Thatbhad been a turning point for the Republic. It had chnaged for the better, many people thought. Yet there were some who would rather see the old days back, the days of their great great great grandfathers and grandmothers. The days when the Republic was yoing, and the beautiful Leia Organa Solo was in charge. Her death at the hands of the Vong had hit the galaxy hard, as had the utter destruction of Rogue Squadron. but those days were behind them now, done and gone.
The Terrikan ship /Big Spender\ shuddered as it was hit by another purple volley. Auroa Skycrawler, a decendent of Jania Solo, one of the heroes of the Yuuzhan Vong wars. She shook her head sadly. She had thought the days when a legitimate government would fire on a civilian tranport were far behind them. A new voice crackled over their com units. "/Big Spender\, this is the Republic vessel /Liberty\. Surrender immediately or be destroyed. Auroa nodded.
"Shut us down. We can't take any more damage."
"Yes ma'am." Aruroa wiped the sweat from her face. This reminded her greatly of the story she had heard about Leia Organa Solo being captured by Darth Vader. She chuckled a little. *If only she could see me now.*
I can here you Auroa. It is me, Leia. Be strong Auroa. You will suceed.
Auroa looked around, knowing she would see nothing. It was Leia, giving her a message through the Force. She couldn't even remember
why
she was here. All around her, hatches opened and Republic troops entered.
"We wish to search your ship." One man said.
"Be my guest." Auroa replied. "You will find nothing." It was true. She was carrying nothing. This was just proof of the state of chaos the galaxy had recently entered.
"Commander, we have found nothing." The soldier said to the Republic commander via his comlink.
"I understand. Return to the /Liberty\ at once. The Supreme Commander has ordered us to return to Kalhtar."
"Yes sir." Kalhtar was the capital of the Republic. After Coruscant was rendered inhabitabnle by the Yuuzhan Vong 900 years prior. The glalaxy had certainly become a much stranger place.
The /Libery\ arrived from superspace in oprbit over Kalhtar. A millenium of space research had also revealed much. Ships of the day could reach speeds that would have been off hyer drive charts. A speed of roughly .0000001 past lightspeed would have been unatainable back then. Now, ships could cross the galaxy in a matter of hours, rather than days. Everything was better, which really didn't change much. A base's shields could stand that much more punishment, but then again the turbolasers on the ship would do that much mroe damage. Things had changed, that was for sure.
The /Liberty\ approached an orbiting space station and docked snugly against it. The ship's commander left through an access tunnel and made his way to the surface via a long turbolift. He got to the Republic House, the largest builiding on Kalhtar in only minutes, and was immediately invited into the Senate Hall. He entered and bowed his head to the senate members. The Supreme Commander spoke. "Commander Teval, report please." He said.
"I was in the Orion system when a vessel came out of superspace. They reufused to answer our hails, so I fired warning shots. One salvo hit the ship accidently. I have disiplned the gunner, of course." He added. "i demanded surrender again, and this time they complied. A search of their vessel revealed nothing, and I gave them enough credits to pay for the damage and the clearance codes for the Fondor shipyards to get ahead of the game." He paused for a moment. "End of report." The Supreme Commander nodded.
"Your dismissed. Give your crew one week shore leave. We will have orders for you by the end of that week."
"Thank you Supreme Commander." Comamnder Teval turned and left the room.

RE: Dark Republic
Thanks for the good words Obi-Zahn.
*********************************************
The smuggler Han Remos, named after his ancestor Han Solo, threw his ship into a spiraling dive. the Republic warship /Diamdem\ followed close on his tail. Swearing to himself, he twisted the ship to avoid another salvo of purple laser fire. The fourteen kilomtre long warship behind him was firing again. A couple of the beams bounced off his rear shields, weakening them. His ship, the /Second Millennium\ shuddered violently. Depsite the growing size of capital ships, freighters remained the same. His ship, a Terrikan XXY freighter, was one of the company that had once been known as Corellian Enginerring Corperation manufactured. Corellia had been one of the planets to fall during the war with the Yuuzhan Vong. Centerpoint Station, located in the sector, had been the site of one of the final battles between the New Republic and the Yuuzhan Vong. One of the Vong vessels had slammed into Corellia, desecrating it. It had taken alomost 150 years, but the Corellians were finally on their feet again. They still harboured a grudge aginst the Republic becasue it was one of their ships that had caused the Vong vessel to crash, but at the same time were deaply grateful becuase of thier efforts to save the planet. And so they built ships fopr the Republic's use, ones to be used to destroy the Yuuzhan Vong. Now that that was done, they had returned to a state of peace. Corellia became a myth, a legend, and a memory. As had Alderaan. The planet's destruction had never been caught on video, and so no one had any footage of its last moments.
Han felt his ship lurch again, then the sensors reported he was clear of the planet's gravity well. One thing that a millenium of research had not revealed was a way to jump to hyperspace inside a gravity well. Han pushed his superspace levers forward and made the jump.
*********************************************
Hope you like it so far. Interesting eh?

Thanks Obi-Zahn. I'll try and work on the typos. I'm notting getting much feedback though. I'll have to work on that. If it's not to much trouble, recomend me to your friends.
*Obi-Zahn! Have friends! That's a laugh and a half!*
*********************************************
Auroa Skycrawler strapped her self into her persoanl fighter, a Frie-Tek design shaped like a Y-wing of old, and powered up the engines. She lifted off silently and moved through the magnacon field, a combined shield and atmosphere containement field. She pointed the nose down and engaged the sublight engines. Fonodr grew larger ahead of her, filling her viewport with its lush green beauty. She smiled. The Republic commander who had boarded her ship had given her clearance for the immediate repair of her vessel. She wpild be out of here in no time. Until then, she and her crew would enjoy the many attractions on Fondor's surface. She set down in a large birth designed for the repair of starfighters and small frieghters, and opened the hatch. The fighter she was flying, a very highly advanced version of the original Y-wing fighter used by the rebel alliance, was a huge success. Advanced engines gave it a speed far higher than even the newer A-wing hade ever reached, and new flight systems allowed it much better manevouribility. New plasma-based lasers packed a punch that far surprassed anything that could be mounted on a starfighter found in the Empire's day. Finally, the compact computer systems gave it five times the data capability as its predeccors, and allowed plenty of room for a com jamming system. It was one of the most advanced vessels in the galaxy. Only Frie-Tek's new model E-wing could compare. Looking at her ship, a thoughht crossed her mind. *It seems that the designers are resurecting old ships to replace the desgns that are growing old today.* Auroa knew much of the galaxy's history. She had taken history in school, and had studied the Galactic Civil war in great detail. She smiled. Maybe while she was here she could find an old X-wing or TIE interceptor. Even an origianl E-wing would fetch a grand price on the collector's market these days.
---------------------------------------------
"What do you mean no!" Auroa yelled at the on duty officer.
"We are no longer accepting ship repairs right now." He looked in no way apoligetic. Just another of those cold Republic officers who would easily become a high ranking officer. The Republic, under its new leadership, appreciated such people. Auroa sighed and pulled the data card Commander Teval ha dgiven her and shoved it under the man's nose.
"What does this say? Read it!" She demanded. The man cleared his throat and placed it into his reader. He began. "To the order of one Auroa Skycrawler and her vessel /Big Spender\. Clearance code 17835-Alpha. For immediate repair of the /Big Spender\ at the Fondor shipyards. All payments to be billed to Republic Fleet Command. No exeptions. To be carried out on the request of one Auroa Skycrawler whenever she requests, for the repair of /Big Spender\ and any support vessels assigned to the /Big Spender\. Approved by Commander Teval, RFS /Liberty\." The man shrugged. "The Leiutenant ordered me not to provide repair services to anyone without his explicit permission."
"Then get on the damn comlink and get his permission!" Auroa yelled. The man gave one of those 'Shut up, just shut up' looks, but picked up the comlink on his desk. He talked to the man for a moment, then put down the device and spoke to Auroa again.
"The Lieutenant will be down shortly." Auroa thanked the man sarcasticly and letft the room.
---------------------------------------------
Lieutenant Stratin entered Fondor's Repair Coordination Centre with a worried look on his face. He looked at the young woman sitting in the waiting room.
"I take it you're Auroan Skycrawlker?" He asked. He was amazed by her beauty. Long,brown hair, tied neatly in a ponytail, and dark brown eyes. She was just the type of wowman he could be attracted to.
"What?" She said, startled. "Oh. Yes, I"m Auroan." She stood and held out a hand. Leutenant Stratin shook it.
"I'm sure that we can figure something out. To be honest, Ensign Karrl is an idiot. He takes everything I say as if it would be the end of the Republic if they weren't obeyed." Auroan smiled appreciatingly.
*********************************************
Well, how is it? Give me some feedback, I'm, always prepared to make inprovements.

RE: Dark Republic-New Author! Please check it out!!!!!
Gee. I'm getting REAL great feedback on this one... Anyway, for anyone who DOES care:
*********************************************
Han Remos landed his ship as softly as he could, considering the damage, on the ferocrete landing pad. The planet of Coruscant, formerly the capital of the galaxy, was now a wasteland. After its destruction at the hands of the alien invaders known as the Yuuzhan Vong, the Republic had moved its command centre to Kalhtar, and there it remained. But Coruscant was slowly becoming habitable once more. A group of people calling themselves the 'Coruscant Reborn' had been, for ther last fifty years, been slowly refertilizing and regenerating Coruscant's plant life. The planet's surface had not been seen in eons until the attack, and now it was revealed for what it really was. Dead rock, for the most part. Once it had had ocenans, lakes and jungels. Now it had nothing. So much waste had gone into some parts of the crust that nothing would ever grow there again. In many areas, however, plants are returning. The Great Southern Jungle was slowly expanding, and the Northern Sea was filling slowly, but surely, with water once more.
Han set his ship down and lowered the cargo ramps on either side. Members of the Coruscant Reborn approached with cargo slieghs and began off-loading the cargo. Han had been carrying a large load of fertilizers and computer systems. All were highly illeagal, approved only for use by government forces. It was actually kind of ironic, Han thought. The decendant of one of people who had fought all their lives to have law, and here he breaking those very laws. He unstrapped from his seat and left the ship.
"Thank you for bringing us the supplies Mr. Remos. We will be eternally grateful. We do not have enough vessel capacity to carry all our equipment."
"Ya ya." Han said. "Now, I belive their is the matter of my payment?"
"Of course. Is a data-transfer all right?" The man asked.
"Whatever. Just give me my damn money." Han said, yawning. The other man (who I WANT to call a rebel for some reason) quickly signed a data-chip and handed it to the smuggler. Suddenly, a silver laser beam
struck the ground near Han. He swore and yanked his blaster pistol free. He waved it around trying to find the source of the attackers. He did. A small group of troops charged over a nearby hill, firing as they came. One of the defenders of the small compex took a bolt through her midsection and fell with a screech to the rocky ground. The Coruscant Reborn guards, few as they were, were extrmely well trained. One woman climbed a high sensor tower and knelt on a platform just below the sensor array. She took a sniper rifle from its place on the side and took aim. One of the attackers was hit by the first blast. His corpse rolled down the hill, tumbling feet first. Her second shot took another man in the face, pitching him backwards. Over the crest of the hill, however, came a much larger group, backed up by a rolling assualt vehcile. Han, who was just taking off, swayed for a moment in the air, as if undecided. He was about to rocket towards space when the the man who had revieved Han took a hit. Despite his earlier cruelety to the man, Han felt some sense of remorse. Despite the thickening laser bolts shooting at him, he turned and pointed his ship at the enemy assualt craft. His first pair of proton torpedoes hit home, slamming into the vehicle at extreme velocity. They appeared to go staright through the vehicle for a moment. Then they exploded. The vehicle was thrown into the air-only to come cmashing back down 100 feet from where it had started. The following shockwave knocked most of the soldiers flat, killing or maiming some. Han looked down at the carbnagem then landed again. For some reason, he felt he needed to help these people further.
---------------------------------------------
Auroa lifted her Y-wing off Folor's surface and rocketed into orbit. Lieutenant Stratin had been good enough to give her clearance to get through the laser defences and into the junk yard. There just may may an intact X-wing or TIE fighter up there. She piloted her ship directly for the defended area, transmitting the clearance along the special frequency reserved for it. The Republic had found it necciary to protect the junk field after one to many space piartes had foubd operational weapons and in some cases even ships. Now, only those with permssion from the Republic could search the yards. She smiled. It had taken some
convincing
, but she had done it. She tuned her sensors to pick up any of the ships she was looking for. Then she began the slow process of doing a grid search of the debris field.

Dark_Luke
, I'd suggest you find yourself a beta reader.
Your posts have quite a few typos/spelling errors, and those sort of things often turn readers off. Those sort of little mistakes are often taken as a sign that the author hasn't really put a lot of effort in the story, even though the opposite may true.
If you really want to attract and keep readers, you need for them to get involved in their stories. Anything that detracts from that is detrimental.

Thanks Obi_Zahn. Hope you'er enjoying the story. I still need more readers, but it's nice to know that at least
one
person is enjoying my work. Well, here's more.
*********************************************
The Supreme Commander of the Republic stalked the halls of the Sun Crusher /Jubilation\. It was the newest Republic Sun Crusher in existance, fresh off the assembly lines at the shipyards of Sonnit. He smiled as he surveyed the ship's sleek lines and curving walls. Entering the hanger bay, he looked over the assembled starfighters. Y and E-wings were lined up against the walls, ready to take off at a moments notice. He entered another room, the pilot ready room. Six starfighter pilots were there, three Y-wing and three E-wing squadron members. Four where engulfed in a card game, a small stack of cred chips in the centre. The general in charge of the starfighter complement was about to say something, but a shake of the head from the SC stopped him. It wasn't a bad thing for these pilots to relax as they waited. The other two were sitting onin comfortable chairs, watching old re-enactments of the Galatic Civil War. Both the general and the SC stopped to watch for a moment. They were showing the Battle of Endor, the very end of the war. Both men saw the Death Star explode before moving on. They were, of course, exagerated. But they still provided excellent viewing. They left the hanger bay, and the
S
upreme
C
ommander was introduced to another officer, this one ion charge of ground forces.
---------------------------------------------
Auroan shut down the autopilot with a grin on her face. She had found it, at least she thought she had. Her sensors showed the mother of all prizes, a fully intact TIE defender. One of the rarest TIE varients even during thie rprime, theyir were only three unrestored in known existance tday. She moved in closer to check it our. It was indeed a defender, and its condition looked much better than that of any other defender. The other three, unrestored, were much worse off than this one. Others, one that had been refurbished, were worth only a portion of the an intact one. She did a sensor sweep to try and determine the age of the fighter. It could just be a clever hoak. One man had made millions of credits off a fake TIE defender before he was found out. Later that week a bounty hunter had caught up with him.
Auroa smiled as the sensor sweep reported the starfighter was at least 950 years old. Easily a real fighter. Using her fighter's limited tractor beam ability, she pulled the ship in and held it fast to her hull. Then she slowly proceeded back to the /Big Spender\. She couldn't afford for this prize to be damaged.
*********************************************
Not to great, but I was the best I could do with the time on hand. I'll post again tomorrow night.

Okay, I didn't get most of that. First, what's a beta reader, and two, can you find me one? I know I have a lot of spelling mistake etc., it's from typing so fast and not re-reading it because Im in such a hurry to get it posted.

A beta reader is someone who reads over your story before you post it.
They catch the nagging little mistakes as well as keeping an eye out for plot loopholes, outright contradictions, and sundry other things that can bog down a fic.
To really utilize a beta, it's usually best to write ahead of posting. Rather than just typing your story up on the fly in the posting window, you should write a chapter or two in advance, e-mail it to your beta, then copy/paste the changes into the reply window when you're done.
As far as getting a beta, I don't really know what to tell you. I'm already doing beta work for two writers, so there's no way I'm going to volunteer to take on another. It's possible you could advertise, but it'd probably be just to ask around with a few private messages.
If there's any other writers whose stories you faithfully read and post to, often they will be obliging and help you with your own story.
But until you find another beta reader, don't just type your story up on the fly. People who are great typists can get away with this, but I know that I can't.
So write up a chapter or two. Reread it carefully, then post away.

Auroa brought her ship down gently on the shiny hanger floor of her ship, the /Big Spender\. The Fondorians had done a great job getting her ship back into working order. Even the lines had been repainted. That Lt. certainely had a way with people. Maybe she would put in a recomendation that he be promoted. She smiled. Her new aquisition would get her enough to buy another small cruiser, maybe one of the new corvettes that had just come onto the market. Not daring to leaver her precious starfighter, she persoanlly supervised the loading of it into a secure container. This large padded box would be held in a tractor field to protect it against shocks and rapid deaclererations. Once the TIE was loaded, she left the hanger bay and returned to her private cabin, exhuasted. She had barely noticed the small freighter entering the bay.
---------------------------------------------
Han set his ship down in the main bay of the ship. On the other side, he noticed a group of people mounting a strange looking starfighter into a storage container. He wondered what it was, but the duties of piloting forced him to concentrate. He set down quickly and wanderd out of the hanger bay, anxious to indulge himself on the ship. Not only did it have an excellent reputation for always getting cargo where it wanted to be, but it had excellent casino facilities that ha dmade the owner rich. And he had money to spend.

RE: Dark Republic-Hey guys, Check it out!
The cloaked figure sat on his high throne on the hidden world of Karyyon. He was a Sith, the last of his kind. Even 1000 years ago he had been the last, slowly consolidating his power and getting ready for a major offensive. Now, the time was ripe. He was saturated in a fresh clone body, and it was time to bring this Repuiblic to its knees. Darth Sorath smiled cruely. 1000 years ago the Empire had fallen apart, and 700 years ago the New Republic had been at its peak. Now, it was slowly crumbling, just as the Old Republic had before it. No one had noticed this yet, only him. It was so minute, so insignificant that only a master like him could ever notice it. But it was there, a vantage point from which to wage his war. It would not be long before the Republic was in his hands, and the entire galactic population his servents. The Old Republic had been around for millenia, and had still crumbled under a Sith ruler. This one, a newborn in the history of the galaxy, would be as easy to win over as a trusting Bantha cub looking for milk. The Sith would triumph, and thrive once more in the galaxy. Far above him, the Confederate warship /Sith Reign\, the pinacle of the Confederation fleet, floated like a Dagobah monster. The warship was a brand new vessel, just built at the Sith's private shipyrad. Advanced lasers dotted the 32 km hull, giving the ship awesome firepower to wield. already two worlds had fallen to the vessel's might. Buzzing around it like flies were the fighters, advanced versions of the old Imprial TIE class of ship. Larger vessels, Confederate cruisers, surrounded the flagship. The fleet, in all, totaled fifty-seven vessels, including the /Sith Reign\. Fifty-seven vessels, each with a full crew and an excellent captain. They would be match for whatever the Republic could through up against them. But that was not the plan. Not Darth Sorath's plan. Darth Sorath had other means for the Republic's destruction. If all went well, which it would, he would practically be
invited
into the Republic as their saviour. Then the galaxy would pay. When he was through with them, they would have learned a very tough lesson in the ways of the galaxy. Again, the Sith lord smiled. *Soon.* He thought. *Soon we will have our revenge.*

RE: Dark Republic-New Author! Please check it out!!!!!
I know that that was just like TPM, but what are you going to do? Hope you're enjoying, though no one is reading apprently...
*********************************************
The space over the planet of Sicus, located within the deep galactic core, was alive with activity. SITH-class fighter craft, awesome varients of the old TIE vessels used by the Galactic Empire, fought with the planetary defenders. These vessels, identicle in appearence to the TIE starfighters of the past, were much more powerful. Shields and and a superspace generator had been added, and the engines had doubled in power, giving the small ships awesome speed. Laser and ion cannons were located on the forward wing, four laser cannons and two ion cannons. In the place of the old ships' twin lasers was a proton torpedo launcher, with a magazine of six torpedoes each. Around them were the TIE interceptor varients, much less efective than the other starfighters. Four laser cannons, and two ion cannons, but without the warheads and less manervourbility. (sp?)
The /Sith Reig\ moved among the space stations, weapons firing. Deadly purple plasma laser bolts sprayed out, vaporizing armour in places and weakening shields. Far ahead of them, the planet's main defensive fleet was scrambling to launchm, sending their comploment of starfighters up to engage the oncoming fleet. The Confederation fleet was already on them as they launched, however, desecrating their ranks. One of the tiny cruisers, one capable of entry into the atmosphere, was engulfed in a wash of purple laser energy,and exploded violently. Debris bounced harmlessly off the shileds of the massive Confederation cruiser. Another cruiser, an older ten kilometre ship, dove uncontrolably into the atmosphere, its engines flaming. Moments later, a fireball shot up from the surface of the planet. The massive Confederation starship moved forward slowly and began to pound the planetary shields. They went opague (sp?) after each blast, and finally fell. As soon as they did, surface batteries began firing into the sky, sending unrelenting salvos into the side of the cruiser. But their firing also gave away their position, and a few well aimed blasts melted or completely destroyed the weapons. As the fire from the surface stopped, a group of invasion shuttles launched and began a slow course towards the surface. The invasion of the galaxy had begun.

RE: Dark Republic 1000 years after Endor, a new enemy is destroying all the rebels fought and died
"I have a bad feeling about this Artoo." C-3PO said. R2-D2 beeped in response. They were not the same droids that had existed 1000 years ago, at least not the same bodies. Artoo had been transfered into a new droid body, a K-45 model. C-3PO had also been transfered, into a a shining new M-7TR protocal droid. The two of them stood in a wide hallway of the freighte /High Runner\. "Mistress Auroa will never stand for this. We'll be discomponetized and sent to the quatnom mines of Tatooine!" C-3PO continued on. Artoo beaped again, a remark that cuased 3PO to throw hias arms in the air and exclaim, "Well, I never!" He shook his mechanical head and stalked off, Artoo following.
---------------------------------------------
Another blast rocked the ship as it sped up past the massive crusier it was trying to get past. SITH-class starfighters buzzed around it, firing their purple laser bolts. Return fire from the freighter nicked one, sending it smashing into the cruiser's side. Then the freighter was past, the cruiser getting smaller behind it. With a sudden flicker, the ship made the jump to superspace.
