    I found interesting foreign source of some abandoned and old scripts for famous movies. Its more likely legit, cause the scripts for other movies there were legit. It also links with the bits of information from this site.

    Good read.

    In TFA credits four people were mentioned as the screenwriters - George Lucas (Disney didnt use his ideads), JJ Abrams, Lawrence Kasdan and Michael Ardndt.
    But actually Michael Arndt was the first screenwriter of the TFA, worked on it till the october 2013, when JJ Abrams was appointed as director. He supposedly worked under the control of George Lucas, but had too agressive time frame to accomplish the scenarion. After that Arndt was fired, and all his ideas were threw off. As i know, he didnt even finished his scenario, but wrote few treatments, about which im telling you now.

    10 pages Arndt's treatment was named "Immortal Legacy".

    In the opening scene there was the spaceship who turns on his shields and dives into the depths of the star, where the secret base of imperial striketroopers located. We meet the admiral Jian, who has arteficial limbs instead of left arm, leg and part of the head. He tortures the captured smuggler, who suddenly found out about military preparation of the imperial soldiers. When Jian finds out that smuggler said anything to other people, he burns him with firethrower, implanted into his artificial arm.

    Next we see the Uradion planet, that was described as the giant Tibet, spinning around the red dwarf star. Academy of the reborned Jedi Order locates here, decorated with the giants statues of Yoda and Alec's Kenobi.The Jedi Order's masters are Luke Skywalker and his wife Miranna. In that moment there are studying the offsprings of the Han and Leia Solo - Naomi and Kayden (Kaiden). We also know that Luke has the daughter named Shaka. Unfortunately, the girl with the famous surname has some problems with her brain. She thinks that it is she the one who will bring the balance to the Force. She built her own Order with lightsabers and trainings, that was described as something between Jedi and Sith study.

    Next scene is the Coruscant. The secret agent who works on Leia (Chancellor of the New Republic) stole the top secret information from the archive of the baron Icarius. The baron's people try to stop him but he runs away useing jetpack and gadgets. He is the grandson of the Moff Wilhuff Tarkin - Ralph Tarkin. Working on the New Republic he tries to atone for the sins of his grandpa.

    Using the top-secret information, Leia finds out that baron supports the imperials by giving them the weapon. The imperial army also knows about the location of the Jedi Academy. Admiral Han Solo orders the republican fleet to go to Uradion. He himself with Chubakka, Leia, Ralph and droids use the Milennium Falcon to go there and save their offsprings.

    When the main characters meet, the imperial ships come and the space battle begins. The twist is the person who is the leader of the invasion. Its Shaka Skywalker. She isnt imperial-sided, she just used the last of the imperial fleet for her own goals. Republican fleet is lost. Jedi use the Force to throw the giant rocks to the landing imperial ships, but that doesnt help much. Ground troops took the Academy. Luke cant kill his own daughter and let Shaka capture him. Han Solo and Chubakka use the Falcon to ramp the imperial ship where Solo offsprings were held. Both Hand and Chubakka die allowing Naomi and Kayden to escape.

    Leia escapes and gathers the new army to attack the imperial fleet. Kayden and Naomi Solo, Ralph Tarkin, droids and few other jedi decide to follow the villains, that went to the Dark Worlds - unexplored part of the galaxy. But they need the good ship and the guide who already was in the Dark Worlds. They come to the Doggar planet and find there the Munwei, wilful captain of the spaceship "Starwalker", who is the only character without famous bloodline. After long discussion Munwei agrees to help the heroes.

    At that time, on the board of the spaceship "Star Extinguisher" Shaka Skywalker, who now calls herself Shad-Var, slowly sucks the Force out of her father, trying to find out the location of the artifact, that can let her to find the planet, where, according to legends, the Force was born. The one who will find that planet, will get the godlike power. Shad-Var thinks that the only way to save the galaxy is to erase some flaws in it. During the torture Luke sees the Yoda's ghost, who says that his father came to Light Side with the time passed. Luke must to endure that pain to turn Shaka back. After the conversation Yoda disappears.

    "Starwalker" finds the planet where the artifact located. They also meet Shad-Var with her troops. After the battle she takes the artifact and turn back to the ship. Heroes are following her and trying to take the control under it. Munwei with his team come to the open space in the suits and turn off the "Star Extinguisher" shields. Parallely they are fighting against striketroopers in the suits. According to Arndt that fight happens outside the spaceship.
    Other heroes infiltrates the ship, frees the jedi and the grand battle of the lightsabers happen. Luke is
    fighting Shad-Var, but doesnt want to kill her again, and she escapes into the sequel. Ralph Tarkin kills admiral Jian.

    In the final heroes contact to Leia and say her that they are staying in the dark worlds to continue their
    search for the mysterious planet where the source of the Force located. Luke grants Naomi and Kayden the ranks of the Jedi Knights. Munwei says that the crew of the "Starwalker" decided to join the heroes in their quest.

    The spaceship turns on the hyperdrive, goes the hyperspeed aaaaand the credits. To be continued.
