    Part One: A Very Long Day


    When the fish that travels over both land and sea
    is cast up on to the shore by a great wave,
    its shape foreign, smooth and frightful.
    From the sea the enemies soon reach the walls.

    Chapter One: From A Galaxy Far Far Away

    Ossus, Auril Sector
    130 ABY
    2 Days following the Fall of the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances (GFFA)


    Siana Delun screamed as the red and black-tattooed Sith warriors cut through the small number of Jedi left who tried to make a perimeter.

    ?Do not fear, Delun!? Master Skywalker told her as he lifted his own light saber in one hand, and a second taken from a nearby fallen Jedi in the other. ?Go with Shado and Cade, now! We?ve summoned your guardian!?

    Behind the Jedi Master, waves of red lightsabers and white storm trooper helmets came rushing on, while overhead Imperial fighters swarmed across the skies. Surrounding buildings exploded under the orbital barrage, throwing everything into chaos.

    In all her life, Siana had never felt such fear as she did at that moment. Still, when she felt a soothing hand on her arm, she forced herself to be calm and turned to see a Rutian Twi?lek staring at her compassionately. ?Come on, Siana,? Shado said. ?The younglings need us!?

    Nearby, she saw Cade staring at his father and Master Sazen even as he shepherded the younglings into one of the waiting Jedi shuttles. Around them, the new forests of Ossus burned. With a muffled sob, Siana turned and ran from the attack with Shado by her side.

    Behind her, she heard Master Skywalker spea

    So what type of cross overs can we expect here. Is it still a Star-Gate cross over, if so will any SG-1 characters appear. Or do you plan on using a different show

    Very interesting so far... I'm eagerly awaiting the next installment. Unluckily for me, I don't recognize several of the characters so I'll have to do a little research... lol.

    Ah, so it's started. The posting, that is. I already know it's a great story. :D And it's induced me to start watching reruns of Roswell and Stargate.

    Hang on, everyone. It's gonna be a thrilling ride. =D=

    I have to admit I pack them in, but I try to keep them logical at least. :-B

    A very good question. All the characters I use, even the Star Trek characters, are ones who are in our time. You won't see Kirk or Spock in this story, nor Jean Luc Picard. The world Siana crashes into might as well be our world. I use real locations in this story. The difference is, I have these franchise characters also in our world, and I think it works. The whole point of Stargate is its a secret, nobody knows. The kids from Roswell-again, nobody knows. They all live in our world. That's what I tried to capture. Our world, but with their characters. I think it lends an immediacy to the story when you see Stargate personel driving through Albuquerque or a Jedi at a pizza parlor in Santa Fe. At least I hope so.

    The story so far is in three parts. Part one deals a lot with the Roswell kids, though SG-1 is very important. Part Two will more fully integrate the Stargate universe while expanding the universes of the two other major franchises I bring in. Part three will be a dive off the deep end dealing with the consquences of what happens in Part II. So there, now you know what's going to happen. I hope you stay with me. I think it'll be a fun ride.

    Roswell was a very fun show, with Ron Moore (a la Battlestar Galactica and Deep Space Nine) as an executive producer, along with Jonathan Frakes. It had its problems and no budget at all, but it was very enjoyable anyway.

    I wouldn't ever want to take you off!

    Thank you! I chose 2002 because it's the final season of both Roswell and x-Files, and a pivotal season in Stargate as well. Thanks for Beta reading as always!

    Thanks, and hopefully the story will keep you hooked even if you're not completely familiar with everyone. I try, anyway.

    You've got me reading a fanfic here without any of the OT characters. I tend to avoid those fics. Something I might have to reconsider since I liked what I've read here so far.
    Also fun to Micheal and Maria here. Maria would be the perfect person to rescue Siana <g> ?The water?s freezing!?

    I've never watched Rosewell, so I'm not familiar with the characters, just the premise of the series. I take it that the second chapter deals with the Rosewell universe. Of course, one can't have aliens crashing on Earth without X-Files, so I will be interested to see how that comes.

    I guess you should throw in Battlestar Galactica as something you worked in, with the word "Frak". hehe. It looks interesting. Multiple crossovers of series can be really good or really horrible. It's all in the author and how they do it. As I said, I'm not familiar with the Rosewell series, so based on these two chapters, I cannot render an opinion, but given what you did last time, it should be an interesting journey. I eagerly await the next chapter.

    JediKage?The except at the end of GOD&L was taking from the chapter below, so here is Kyle?s first entrance into the story.

    cibbler?if that isn?t a great compliment, I don?t know what is. I hope I can keep you coming back. My Beta wasn?t really a fan of Roswell or the other fics I brought in, but she tells me she enjoyed it as well. Additional Star Wars elements do enter into the fray during Part 2. But again, they are Legacy (130+ABY) C cannon characters.

    LordInferno?No Battlestar, promise. As for the Roswell characters, well, you might say I actually took them and put them into the SG verse, which I then put into the real world of 2002. If anything, this is an AU of our verse. And you?re absolutely right about multiple crossovers being either really bad, or really good. Mostly bad. I?ve tried to walk a very thin line as to who I put in and who I don?t. I may even have to rethink my dramatis personae stance. I may list it after all the primary characters have been introduced. We?ll see.

    Anyway, I will try very hard not to disappoint you, cibbler, or any of the other readers who brave this strange new world.

    With that said, here comes Chapter Three, with Kyle Katarn making his grand entrance. I didn?t beat anyone over the head in the story with how he?s alive and relatively young, but to explain again?he has been traveling the galaxy at relativistic speeds, which results in a time-dilation effect for him and the rest of the universe. In effect, times slows the closer he gets to the speed of light. He?s been cheating time to watch after the Delun family.

    I also want to issue a warning about Darth Nihl, the Sith Lord in this story. He is bad. I mean, truly, despicably bad. He does some truly abhorrent things in this story. But what makes this a little different is that he is doing these abhorrent things to American citizens in a world that could be our own. Just be warned.

    I hope you enjoy.



    Chapter 3: Blue Hair

    Ossus, Auril Sector
    130 ABY
    3 Days Post GFFA


    Darth Scraggus dreamed of power. It was a dream he had harbored since his youth on Nar Shaddaa?a youth spent watching the powerful abuse and control the weak.

    Scraggus was not considered by his Sith brethren to be the strongest of their kind, but Krayt himself had noted his overwhelming devotion and loyalty. Between his devotion to Krayt and the power he did have, Scraggus was named a fully ranked Dark Lord of the Sith.

    During the invasion and destruction of the Jedi Praxeum at Ossus, Darth Krayt had selected his hand, Darth Nihl, to be the overall commander. However, since Nihl had gone missing the day of the attack and the majority of the Imperial and Sith strike force had left to pursue the remnants of the defeated Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, clean-up fell to Darth Scraggus.

    It was a task the Rodian was perfectly suited for. Just in the past ten hours of occupying the planet he and his taskforce had uncovered and wiped out two cells of Jedi padawans, two full knights, and almost fifty civilians, mostly women and children. Scraggus had no qualms about killing humans, and the non-humans he left to his underlings.

    The Praxeum itself had been reduced to a pile of rubble, but underneath the rubble the Dark Lord knew there were several kilometers of tunnels and hidden passages in which Jedi could hide.

    It was during his search of one of the tunnels under the Praxeum with two of his warriors that the Pellaeon-class star destroyer in orbit contacted him. ?Darth Scraggus,? the Imperial captain said with due deference to a Sith, ?we attempted and failed to intercept a small ship entering the planet?s atmosphere approximately half an hour ago. The ship appeared to be Sekotan in design, but had no transponder and did not respond to hails.?

    ?Why am I only now learning of this?? Scraggus demanded.

    ?We wanted to ascertain its precise landing point first, M?lord. We have finally determined the ship landed half a kilometer away from your lo

    Wow... I wasn't sure I'd be able to get into this fic, not following Legacy or and having absolutely no wish to follow Legacy, but you've definitely captured my interest. It doesn't hurt that I love Roswell!

    ?Did you see this girl??

    ?Blue hair,? the Rodian gasped.

    The Jedi stood up. ?Tell me now, little Sithy, what do you prefer?death at the hands of your masters for failing, or by mine for being such an idiot??

    ?My master will eat your heart, you Jedi scum?? The Rodian?s mouth continued to move for a second or two after his head was severed, but without breath no sound emerged.

    ?By my hand, then,? the man said. He turned back to the secondary security control panel. ?Computer, resume search for shuttle transponders

    I won't even pretend to understand your probably-very-logical explanation of how Kyle is avoiding old age. I'm just glad he's still around!

    The girl?s eyes widened in alarm at [the] connection and power, but she made no move as he healed her.

    Oops. Remove the brackets around 'the'. ;)

    Wow This is indeed a lot of fandoms but I was under the impression that it was going to be primarily a xover between SW and SG-1 taking place in the SGverse Milky way galazy and with characters from other fandoms thrown in. Now it looks more like this particular story is a SW/Roswell Xover instead...

    Still the story looks really good hope to see more...

    EDIT: Never mind and ignore the first comment...

    Umm... is this guy gay and a psicho as well? [face_sick]
    Again other than that grisly detail great story...

    BTW: Now there's quite a few questions I do have, plz ignre my prevoious pos abot this looking like a Roswell/SW Xover alone. I was very tired when I first read this and didn't caught the details until now...
    Still I do have questions:
    1. Just what kind of hyperspace did Siane travelled thru? The only one that is red as I recall from any fandom is the one from Babylon 5...

    2. When or how the Sith got to our galaxy and to Earth? More importantly what are they doing on Earth?
    3. Since the Antaarans (the regular ones not the hybrids) and the Asgard kind of look alike are they related as a species in this fanfic?
    3. On what season of Roswell is this taking place? Is it after Liz began to show powers or her own? It has to be sort of close because is obvious that it is after Max hads the "affair" with the Aien girl from his kind I don t recall how she was called in fact I faintly remember the series now as it has been a long time...
