"Father & Son" - An AU Round Robin starring Dark Luke, Vader, Mara, and Leia

TWENTY YEARS LATER
---------------------------------------------
The Super Star Destroyer Emperor Vader took a plasma beam on its weakened shield, collapsing it. The Yuuzahn Vong attack had come with shocking speed. Already, the Galatic Empire had lost three planets to the alien invaders. Empreror Skywalker, who had taken over from Vader when the former Emperor was deemed to old to continue, had decrred that the Imperial fleet be dispatched immediately to counter the threat, but the Vong were incredibly strong. Their massive worldships had destroyed Star Destroyer /Skywalker Leagacy\, and the Death Star was growing old and poorly maintained. The Kuat Drive Yards were busily creating a new warship, but for the time being the the SSDs were the best line of defence against the Vong. The Vong organic starship fired ahot after shot at the SSD, crushing the hull and burning holes through it. The ship's bridge tower disappeared in a golden fireball. Another salvo from the Vong ship slammed into it. Fire blossomed out from the ship, consuming it slowly. When the flames cleared, the front half of the vessel was gone. The Vong ship fired again, destroying the SSD, then jumped to 'hyperspace'.

 

Glad you like it Darth_Sithlord. The Vong attack is growing every minute, so stay on course. And recomend it to your friends.

 

The Yuuzhan Vong attack came with such speed and ferocity that not even the Empire could manage. Now, with Kessel's defences crushed and the planet thrown from its normal orbit by unimaginable forces, the Emprie was mad. It was bad enough they had lost three other planets, but Kessel was the final straw. The Imperial fleet, in orbit over Coruscant, was immmense. Sixty-seven Super Star Destroyers. The Death Star. And the new Imperial superweapon, the Dovan laser. An awesomely powerful variant of the superlaser aboard the Death Star, this gun could bring down a ships dovin basals with little or no effort. At eighty-five kilometres long, the vessel rivaled the Death Star in sheer size. More than 200 000 turolasers were scattered across it, as well as 500 000 laser cannons. No ion cannons were present. The ship had shields stronger than those that had protected the second Death Star. It could literally drive through the heart of the station and not suffer a scrath. Thousands of prototype TIE fighters were locked inside. These fighters each carried a much downscaled version of the dovan laser. The size of a standard laser cannon, this smallish laser could cut through the dovin basals of the Yuuzhan Vong ships with practiced ease. Larger scale versions were installed on Super Star Destroyers all over the fleet. The Empire was getting ready for a major offensive. Unfortuantely, the pinacle of the fleet, the eighty-five kilometre long /Vong Killer\ was to take an estimnated two years to complete. That was two years in which the Yuuzhan Vong could force their way into the galaxy. In the command centre of the Death Star, Luke Skywalker stood surveying his ensemble of vessels. Behind him, his sona nd daughter stood, lightsabers clipped to their belts. Luke remembered the day thay had recieved their weapons...
*********************************************
That's my next post. Pay attention.

 

Here it is: the much not awaited giving of the lightsabers...
*********************************************
"Very good. Very good both of you. Come see me tomorrow, and I will continue your training." Both of the children bowed to the Sith Lord.

Mara left Atha and Zak outside the training room that Luke ahd asked her she bring them. Luke appeared a moment later, and theyentered. The room overlooked the round cirve of the Death Star. The Imperial Symbol was painted in pure black around the room, showing the Empire's might. The two children knelt, and Atha, always a take-charge individual, siad, "Why have you summoned us master?" Luke couldnt' help smiling.
"I want to present you with something. Something very important." From a low storage container, he retrieved two cylinder packages, one wrapped in crimson velvet, the other in black. He gave the crimson-covered one to Zak, the black to Atha. They opened them, to reveal beautrifully crafted lightsabers. Both children looked shocked. Despite being only seven years old, they were very smart. "I know that building your own blade is a trial of the Jedi, but that ios a trial of the Light Side. I believe it is a wste of time. I give you these, and I hope you will always treasure them. Now, let's see how well you have progressed in your training." Witht he utmost disiplin, and no complaint, the children clipped the lightsabers to their belts and began their excercises/

 

Well? What do you think so far? No more rebels, and a Yuuzhan Vong attack. I'm not quite sure how to proceed now, I've been writing all day and my minds going slightly blank. Well, back to the storys. Check out my X-wing fic, X-wing: Burning Planet

 

Dude, you are a great writer. These Vong guys seem insanely powerful, but 67 SSD should handle them,eh?
Also, an 85km ship, the Vong Killer or something, that is big man, very big. Keep up the good work, ill try to whack in a post/story soon.

 

The Yuuzhan Vong worldship /Eternal Torment\ was in position. The ship, along with its friagte escorts, had a mission. They HAD to destroy Ithor. It had cost them, but they had discovered that the Ithorian trees produced a pollen than could kill their living armour. The /Eternal Torment\ went into the Vong equivilent of hyperspace, enroute to the planet.
---------------------------------------------
Luke! Luke! Luke awoke with a start, looking around his qurters on the Death Star. Yuuzhan Vong ships were all around him, firing. He couldn't sense them with the Force, but he knew they were their, somehow. Then it struck him. *I can feal them slightly becasue the Dark Side is so much stronger. Another advantage to the Dark.* He knew from personal experiance that the Lightsiders couldn't feel the alien race. Concentrating, he could pinpoint their exact location. He flet something he shopuldn't have, a presence where he knew the sensors said their wasn't one. He ran to the control center and looked around. As he already knew, the Yuuzhan Vong ships were all around. His children were alrerady there, controling the fleet. As he approached, they turned and bowed slightly, respectively.
"The fleet us at your command Lord Skywalker." Zak said. Luke nodded and turned to face the crew.
"Fire on sector 37A!" He ordered.
"But Lord Skywalker! There is no ship in that area. We wouldn't hit any-" Seeing Luke nod, Atha used the Force to choke the man to death.
"Now, fire on sector 37A !" Another man moved aside the dead man's body and set up the superlaser to fire.
The green beams converged and slammed into nothing. Or so it seamed. Explosions began to expand from the spot, and the cloaking shield went down long enough for the sensors to get a reading before the ship exploded brlliantly.
Another of Vong's secret weapons.
"Weapons! Get me a reading on that ship!" Ordered Zak. One man paused fopr a second, then handed the Sith Lord a datapad. Luke looked over his shoulder to examine the contents, and gasped. The ship was enourmes, almost forty kilometres long. It was obviously a lucky blast that had killed the ship, thought Luke. Then again, the Death Star can destroy a planet. The Yuuzhan Vong ships, seeing one of their major weapons destryoed, falterd for a second. That was enough. The Death Star used the oppurtunity to fire a shot at the closest asteroid ship. It blew apart, spraying debris at the battle station. The enemy vessels moved in closer and fired their unrelenting volleys of plasma at the station. Luke ordered his men to retaliate, firing salvos of deadly turboalser beams at the enemy ships. So plentiful were these beams that they easily overwhelmed the blackhole-like dovin basals on the Vong vessels. One, its 'shields' gone, was charred black by laser fire. Escape pods began to fire off from the vessel. apparently, even the vong wanted to preserve lives whenever possible. The Death Star Deployed a tractor beam and swept it across the battlefield. Escape pods were stuck in the beams, and the tractor brough them directly in front of the superlaser. Aiming at a distant cruiser, the weapon fired. Every pod in its path was vaporized by the green beam of deadly energy. When it hit the cruiser, the beam was weak enough to be diverted by the dovin basals.
---------------------------------------------
Watching from the Imperial station wreak havoc did not please Shie (Shy) Kaldor. As the battle station fired again, he realized his cruiser was inthe blast's path.
"All dovin basals, full strength!" The blackhole power increased, and the blast was diverted. Only after it had hit did Shie realize what the true target had been. Over one thousand escape pods had been vaporized by the blast. Shie swore in his native tounge, then turned to the fleet's commander. "Have all vessels fire on that station! Ram it! Destroy it at any cost!"
---------------------------------------------
"Lord Skywalker, their is a Yuuzhan Vo

 

Coming up next: A traitor to the Empire.
And don't forget to check out X-wing: Buring planet. It aint much, but feel free to add on!

 

phew! that was a blast. i loved that battle.
plz write more dude, its great. you should have Zak and Atha fighting for the throne.

 

This one isn't an action sequence, but here we go.
*********************************************
Leia Organa walked dowbn the silent halls od the palace on Coruscant. Luke was away on the Death Star, fighting the Yuuzhan Vong. Mara was there withb him. Atha had met another Force sensitivem, and they were already planning a wedding. Even Zak had a girlfriend. But Leia had no one. There wasn't a man in her life, and she was nearing the end of it. It wasn't that she was a virgin. No, she had had her share of men, but none of them had stuck around long. She wanted a real man. Someonme she could come home to at night. Alas, she had none. She thought Han Solo would have made a good husband, but Luke had killed him. Opening the door to her spacious quarters, sheb gasped. On the bed, in the far room, was a bundle of Alderaanian roses, and a datapad. She picked it up and read,
Empress Skywalker, I know that you are a busy busy woman, and you must think that a man like me is to small, to pathetic for you, so I'll only say this once. I love you. Ever since I found out you exsited. But alas, I am but a lowly officer, while you are the empress, and sister of Lord Skywalker, son of Lord Vader. I wish you the best of luck, and a happy life.
Sincerely, Jagged Fel

*Jagged Fel? Of course! Baron's son!* Leia ran from the room and literally flew to the command centre. She spoke to the commander of the starfighter division in a rush. "When does the 181st TIE interceptor squasdron leave?" She asked.
"Tomorrow Mistress Skywalker. They're on leave until then."
"Tomorrow." Leia said in a daze. "Thank you commander." She left the command centre and went back to her room.
---------------------------------------------
Jagged Fel stood up as the two crimson-clad Sovergien Royal Guards entered the bar. They had once been Emperor Palpatine's private bodygurads. Now they served as a symbol throughout the Empire. The bartender, a man in his late fourties, looked teriffied. If Lord Skywalker's personal troops were there it must have been important. One of them spoke while the other used his heavy blaster to keep the patrons down. "Is Jagged Fel here?" He said in his real voice, not the mechanicalized one usually associated with the Empire's shock troops, the stormtroopers. The standing officer nodded and approached the guards.
"Lady Skywalker wishes to see you immediately." The other one siad, putting away his blaster. Seeing that the danger had passed, the other patrons reumed their normal activities. The two crimson-clad guasrds exited the bar.

 

Cool man! check your typos and yes it sounded perverted.

 

Well, would YOU like it if Luke came into your house, using the Dark Side, and killed you all? Huh? Well that's why. If I get to many complaints I'll take it out, but...
Anyway, thanks for the input. I just type fast, don't watch my spelling much.

 

Interlude: Leia Solves her Problem...
Just a little mushy scene to piss you all off until the next post.
*********************************************
Jagged Fel was led to Leia Skywalker's private qurters at the very top of Imperial palace. The Soivergien Proctectors remaind outside the door, ready to defend Leia iof neccecary. Jagged entered and looked around. These were much nicer than his own quarters, back at the 181's headquarters. He smiled slightly as Leia walked out of her ajoining bedroom and approached him. She was wearing a beautiful loose blue gown, similar to the one she wore onj Cloud City so many years ago, complete with the Skywalker family crest on the left breast. The crest, a shield with two lightsabers crossed over it, had not been seen for thousands of years. The New Generation, as they called themselves, wore it proudly. The lightsabers, ha dof course, been changed from blue and green to red. Leia smiled back at the fighter pilot.
"I got your present." She said softly, tantilizingly. Jagged's smile grew.
"I'd hoped you had. Did you like it?" He asked, still nervous. Leia was after all, a Sith, and sister to the most powerful man in the galaxy.
"Shut up and kiss me!" Leia said. She drew him into a tight kiss, and when they parted Jagged said, "I take it you liked the present." Leia grinned.

 

*Throws up*

 

Awwww! Did Obi-Zahn not like my puke fest? To bad isn't it! Like I said, I threw that into the mix to piss you all off until another post. He he. It worked to. Anyway, here's the next post...
*********************************************
Zak Skywalker walked briskly through the halls of the Death Star, intent on his target. Even when an officer waved for him and told him that his girlfriend was on the holonet at his espense, he did not stop. He entered the persoanl hanger bay assigned to the Skywalkers and walked up to his shuttle, a modified Imnperial starfighter. The ship, produced by Sineir fleet systems, was similar in appearance to the former rebel alliance's X-wing starfighters, but newer, sleeker, better. It had been dubbed the TIE-E, due to its silarity to an large E. It was strecthed, big enough to acomadate three persons and have a limited 'fresher. At the very back was a small food processer. He entered the code, and the side of the starfighter opened backward. He cmilbed in and started the vessel's engines. Lifting off, he got immediate clearance from the control station to leave the hanger bay. He did so, and as soon as he was outside Ithor's planetary gravity well, he went to hyperspace.
---------------------------------------------
Luke felt his son depart from the station. He smiled. He had known for a while now that Zak was working with the Yuuzhan vong. It would only be a matter of time before he would be forced to destroy him...
---------------------------------------------
Leia woke with a start and looked around. Jagged was gone, and on her nightstand was her datapad. *My god! I didn't.....did I?* Tentively, she picked up the datapad. It read as follows:
Leia,
I had a great time last night, and I could tell you did to. My squadron will have left by the time you read this. Hope to see you soon. Jagged.
*I did. Oh my god...* Leia got up and checked her chrono. It was already 09:00. She was supposed to have been in a meeting two hours ago. Cursing Jagged Fel she pulled on a fresh dress, a crimson red one that Luke said made her look every bit the Imperial leader, and ran to the refresher. Quickly applying makeup, she ran from the room and down the halls of Imperial Palace.
---------------------------------------------
"Am I late?" She asked breathlessly at the door to the senate chmaber. *What a stupid question! Of course I'm late!" She thought to herself.
"No, Madame Skywalker." The droid replied. "Captain Jagged Fel contacted us with your personal codes and told us you would be here at 10:00. You are early." Leia immediately changed her mind about Jagged.
"thank you." She opened the door and walked in.

 

Sorry guys. More action coming soon. I promise! Tell me how you liked it. Good? Horrible? Or, ijn the immortal words of Obi Zahn *Throes up*? Or maybe: 'It's good, from a certain point of view."

 

I have this thing about osculating. I don't like it.

 

Finally, the next bit. And don't worry, this one has some action, Not much, but some.
*********************************************
The TIE-E reverted to real space in the midst of a Yuuzhan Vong fleet. Worldships, firgates, command vessels, almost five hundred cruisers. Most were nsmall, but those that were bigger were just that, gigantic. The worldship /Embracer of Pain\ (Not Embrace of Pain. EMBRACER!), the Vong flagship, was 100 kilomtres of pure destructive power. And this was only 80% of their total firepower. Zak Skywalker brought his fighter in, already cleared for landing by the Vong commander. He set his ship down and looked around the gloomy ship. Yuuzhan Vong looked aprhensively at him and his ship. They weren't scared, just confused. What was a Jedais doing on their ship, and whu had the commander allowed it? They watched the Jedasi leave, then surrounded the ship. Who knew what kind of evil secrest lay buried under its metal hull?

Zak walked through the Yuuzhan Vong ship bravely, ignoring the aliens who questioned him. Every ten or fifteen metres, he would sigh, ignite his lightsaber, and lash out at the Vong around him. This of course left a trail anyone could follow. He arrived at the bridge, and with a swing of his humming red blade, cut through the doorway.
"Shie! Get over here! I want to talk to you!"
"Jedasi Skywalker. What is it?" The Vong answered nravely.
"You lied to me. You rtold me that you would leave me alone! I was on the Death Star!"
"I harbour nothing against you Skywalker. But your father destroyed one of my vessels year ago, and I swore revenge against him. My brother was on that ship! Do you have any sibling?" Zak nodded. "How would you feal if someone were to kill them?" Zak remained quiet. "I will tell you how you can help me if you wish." Zak nodded again. Shie smiled and began to tell him his plan...

 

Ooh, nice.

 

Zak stormed into the throne room of the Death Star, fire in his eyes.
"You are a traitor to the Empire!" He said harshly to Luke. "Your time has passed! It is time for this galaxy to have a true leader, someone who will not leave this Vong threat unchecked!" Atha instincively moved in front of her father.
"Zak! Listen to yourself! You dare go against Emperor Skywalker, the greatest Sith Lord in the galaxy?" She yelled, enraged.
"He is no Sith!" Zak responded, igniting his ruby-red lightsaber and charging at Luke. Atha swore and ignited her own blade. She easily blocked the blow that would have killed Luke,a nd the two siblings began to battle their way downe the stairs.
"Now we find out who the superior is." Mara said from behind Luke, who had turned the throne to watch the ferocious battle.
"And who will rule the galaxy in our places when we die." Luke smiled coldly. The two watched their children fight down the stairs. Atha connected a kick then sent Zak flying down. He landed hardly, and his lightsaber flew away.
"You are beaten Zak. Give up!" Atha commanded. Zk responded by using the Force to call his weapon to him and attacking his sister anew. Atha, angry now, hacked at her brother, forcing him back further and further. He weakened with every blow, struggling to hold of his twin. she struck again and again, finally forcing Zak down again. "Give up! Or I will kill you!" Atha warned.
"Kill me then!" Zak yelled. He called his blade to him and struck out at his sister. She parryed his blow easily, then lunged. Her blade went through Zak's chest, stunning him. His lightsaber went out and would have rolled off the catwlk on which they had been fighting, had it now been for Atha. She picked it up and clipped it to her belt, on the opposite side of her own. Zak, struggling to breath, said, "You got me. I'm beaten. Atha," Blood was beginning to well up in his mouth now. Atha began to cry softly. "Atha, you must des...troy..the...the Vong." Then, with a final shuddering breath, Zak Skywalker died.
"As it deserves to be." Mara said. "Atha will make a fine ruler some day." Luke nodded.

 

ooh, Dark stuff. I love it!

 

If you're just to lazy to read all that, here's where we stand: The Yuuzhan Vong have invaded the Empire, and both sides are fighting for their continued existance. Leia has gotton 'involved' with Jagged Fel, the son of Baron Fel. (This isn't the SAME Jagged as in the NJO. In this, he was born much earlier and is just a bit younger than Leia, and Baron Fel is really old.) Zak Skywalker tried to reason with the Vong, and was convinced by them that Luke is evil and that he, Zak, should be ruling the galaxy. He approaches Lukle with this, and his twin sister, Atha, kills him.

And THAT's why I did twins! I couldn't very well have the one kid kill the other who doesn't exist! Besides, remember in this that the Zahn trilogy doesn't exist!

 

Nice story....but who is Zak Skywalker?

 

Zak is one of the twins that Luke and Mara had.

 

Sorry for the dealy, but i was writing another fic. Dark Republic. Check it out. Here's the next bit for all you die-hard fans. Yeah, right. anyway...
*********************************************
Atha braced herself against the wall. She had just killer her borther. Her beloved brother. How could she have commited such shame to her famiy? She felt a familair presence behind her, and turned to see Luke standing there.
"You did no wrong." He said softly. "He was a traitor, and i am sure he died knowing it." Atha smiled.
"I know. He deserved to die. But still..." She trailed off.
---------------------------------------------
The Yuuzhan Vong fleet, still realing from their defeat over Ithor, floated silently in orbit. Shie smiled. One of their agents had just reported that Zak Skywalker was dead, killed by his own sister. *Foolish infidels. We will soon crush them beneath our heal.* He moved away from the bridge windows. His fleet, reinforced from vessels from the home galaxy, was gearing up for the biggest assualt on the Empire yet.
---------------------------------------------
On the spawnworld Yuuzhenia, mighty Emperor Zong stood over his fleet. One thousand warships, all stocked with Yuuzhan Vong warriors, ready to avenge the loss at Ithor. They moved away slowly, majesticly, increasing the distance from their homewolrd and thier own galaxy. The Empire was about to suffer a blow they could not even imagine...
---------------------------------------------
Atha, working her way back to her cabin, was not paying attention to her surroundings. She rammed directly into a young ensign, who immediately said, "Lady Skywaler! I am so sorry! Please forgive me!" Atha was about to continue on, when she noticed something. This man had no presence in the Force. She grabbed for her lightsaber and ignited it with a *snap*. Its glowing ruby blade leaped out and sliced through the Vong's arnour. He collapsed to the deck in agony. Atha, using the Force, sealed his wounds, but kept him in a state of shock. she then waited for a medical team to arrive. Luke would definately find this one's torture very much fun. She smiled. She was feeling better already.
---------------------------------------------
Leia opened a line on the holo-net and called the Super Star Destroyer /Iron Jade\, named after Luke's wife, Mara Jade. She asked for Jagged Fel, and when he was on the line, she pretended to be outraged.
"You leave me in the middle of the night, and cause me to be late for a meeting1 I should have you killed! How do I know there isn't another woman onboard the /Iron Jade\? Huh?" Jagged looked terrified. Smiling broadly, Leia said, "I'm kidding you idiot. Now, get back to Imperial Centre stat! We...I need you." She cut the connection.
