Derek Skywalker

''"War is two sides killing each other for a reason- only until it takes too long. Then it's just people killing each other for the heck of it. That's what's going on now. There is no bloody cause no more." -    Derek describing the war to Vasco'  ''

THE BEGINNING
Derek Skywalker was born on the rocky Outer Rim planet of Teth. At the age of two, his village was attacked by local raiders and his house was lit up in fiery flames. Barely knowing who his parents were and also not knowing if they were dead or alive, he headed out into the jungle. Derek experienced slaughter at an early age, but as he grew he developed a sense of humor. Since he had been alone for a few years he barely gets scared of things even now, because he thinks he's seen it all. He was found by a Mandolorian and was taught the Mando way. After his mentor died, he was found at a late age of six by Jedi Master Plo Koon when the Republic sent out to rescue Jabba the Hutt's son.

Plo Koon, sensing him to be very Force sensitive, immediately sent him to the Jedi Temple for him to be tested; and his midichlorian count showed that he was very attuned to the force! As he grew Yoda realized that Derek began to get reckless and he was in need of a master. Granting Derek the ability to pick his master, he searched around the temple, finally finding a man named Philip Skywalker (you can find him as COOLPhilip Skywalker). At first Philip denied having him as a padawan, but Yoda persuaded him to take Derek on a mission to see how they worked out. Saving his life during combat, Philip realized having Derek as his padawan wouldn't be so bad after all. When he had to report he told the council that Derek has much to learn and that he will be taken as Philip's padawan.

FAMILY
Gregory Skywalker(TheGrand Skywalker) is the father to Derek Skywalker. Derek has many brothers but two of then are Kool and Wilmore Skywalker. Kole Commetspanner is his uncle. A nice older sister is Aari (There are many more people related to him in the family but I didn't list them all after all, even my master is my uncle).

LIFE AS A SOLDIER
Derek always loved humor and combat, and he still does. He would much prefer hanging onto a rancors back while chasing a bantha rather than sitting at the Jedi Archives reading or learning. He quickly became an intelligent Jedi Knight and became a general to many clones. Being a brave and fearless leader, Derek's daring and recklessness has turned many hopeless battles into Republic victories. When he had any down time, he would happily use it fighting and dueling. He finally got the titles of Blademaster, Sentinel, and Duelist. He served with many soldiers; FieldCommander Racer, Gladiator Squad, Thorten and many others. He is now appointed as a very proud leader of the UNSCM and this was told to him by Vasco Gomes himself (Vasco Gomes: Gladiator1 Vasco). Derek also serves beside a very rare person: Burner Mereel, a true Mando who fights along side Derek and Derek only.

INVASION OF KORRIBAN
Cutting down the last alien in that sector, I deactivated my saber and returned to the head tent. That is when I got an urgent message from my master, father, and brother. I was needed. NOW. Quickly running out of the tent and pulling on a cloak, I yelled orders to all the troops to pack up and be ready to leave at O-600. Then two Republic Venator- Class Attack Cruisers touched down as men loaded up supplies and munitions. After going back in orbit the ships went into hyperspace and met six other Venators in orbit around the yellowish planet. Going to the head cruiser, I met my father, master, and brother waiting for me. After being briefed on what was going on, I went back and prepped my men. "This ones gonna be tough guys," I said. "Ah don't worry 'bout us boss I can take 'em all down with my baby right here." The clone Crasher said as he picked up his rotary. This let out a few chuckles but the all became silent again. Then I got an encrypted transmission that I didn't need to decode. The Invasion of Korriban had begun.

Swinging my saber along side my brother, Wilmore, I sliced a droid down and kicked another into Wil's saber. We beat the droids then saw what awaited us and I didn't like it. A whole legion of Sith Acolytes were coming toward us with for Sith Lords in front wearing black cloaks and we couldn't see their faces. Everyone was silent then I charged. Everyone let out battle cries and the battle had begun. The first Sith Lord activated his duel-bladed saber and met mine inches away from his face. Intense fighting began and the Sith Lord Force pushed me back onto a rock pillar that connected two cliffs and the pillar looked like it could break any second. He jumped on and we contined dueling. Finally he got me pinned on the other side with his saber to my neck. I force repulsed and made him fall off the cliff, but I knew he would come back so thats why I force lifted a whole pillar and waited. Then a black figure jumped up and, using the Force, I swang the pillar like a bat. The pillar shattered as it hit him and he flew back right into a stone that was shaped like a knife. Silently speaking I said "Your out." and ran back to fight some more. Even though Wil saved me six times, we held our ground until Philip, Greg, Aari, Kool, Luke, and Athan could come. We pushed the Sith back. Victory was ours. The final Sith Lord (and the most powerful one) was left standing. We came in at him slowly with our sabers pointed. He tapped into my darkest secrets and made me go loose. I ran at him slashing recklessly but he easily disarmed me.I did a good job avoiding his saber and landing a few punches but then he backed up a bit. Wil and Philip tried to stop me but i threw them over me and charged the Sith, weaponless... or so he thought. I spun and kicked his saber out of his hands and both of us grabbed one fist with one hand and another with the other hand. I was pushing him back and he was at the edge of the cliff. Then in one move he flipped me on the ground and half my body was on the cliff and the other half was not. Knowing that I was beat he tried to execute me, (by the way, Greg, Phil, and the others were frozen in their place by an ancient Sith spell), but then saw I had something in my hands. It was a thermal detonator. "Got you now you little..." I said then I let it explode. The last thing I saw was him flying back, dead and me flying down the cliff, close to death.... I opened my eyes and saw me in a medical lab with Phil, Wil, and Greg around me. "Where... what... happened?" "You blew up." Wilmore said then he chuckled. Greg explained how he had saved me by putting a Healing gem on me and it kept me alive until extraction. I still felt something wrong though... Then that was when I looked at a mirror. "Oh my god....." I said. Half of the skin on my face was all black and my robes top part was literally ripped off along with a bit of my pants and every part of my body was bleeding. In fact, my whole body was COVERED in blood. All the blood that had gotten out had gotten all over me and i saw a small hole in my thigh. Thats one for the books, I thought. Two months later I was good to go. And Wilmore came to me saying, "I will NEVER as long as I live, NEVER give you a thermal detonator again." Grinning, I say "Yeah, Yeah. Well lets go bust something, I'm getting bored." I walked away as Wil just stared at me. "He is so related to me." He mumbled. And, with that, he ran after me

ENRAGING MISSION
Flying in my starfighter I zoomed through flying super battle droids and had half a head staring at me until I did a spin. "Master you have two on your tail pull up I'll get the leader then pull through the hanger." 'What do you mean go through the hanger?! It will follow me there!" "I know." I said as I blasted one fighter on his tail. "Ok Admiral Firon close the blast shields on my mark." "Ok..... NOW!!" When I said that Philips fighter zoomed in but the fighter after him crashed into the shields. I grinned "I will never listen to you again Derek" He said. "Ok don't so next time I won't save your butt." After fighting a bit and taking hits I started going down. When I was below the atmosphere I jumped out- and landed on a vulture droid. Cutting a hole into its head I disconnected and connected wires until I had control of it by pulling the wires to one direction and it flying in that direction and disconnecting a wire to make it fire. Deciding something easier, I pulled up but kept my saber in my right hand and when I got close would slash at fighters. After the sky battle finished we landed. Four clones came with us and we fought droids on land. After reinforcements came the clones fought hard pushing them back. Especially because Shots, their leader, died. After the fight I had many losses and felt even worse then ever. That grieve turned into rage and I murdered all the prisoners that we had gotten, while the had pleaded for mercy (One of them held very helpful information for the Republic).



MISSION ON CARLAC
I woke up from a call on my comlink. I was on my Venator-class Attack Cruiser, the Spitfire. Sleeping to be exact when I answered it. It was my master Philip Skywalker. "Derek, Death Watch has taken over Carlac we need your help NOW!" "Good morning to you to master. Ok Im on my way." I got the men to get us to Carlac and I touched down with my starfighter, being greeted by Commander Wolffe. "The situation here is not good." He said. He gave me a report on what happened and it was grim. I then met my master and got on some gear for the cold. I pulled down my goggles and pulled up my scarf and pulled on my hood. "Lets go." He took me to a Death Watch outpost and we started fighting them, making our way to their boss. He escaped and we had failed. We then were walking back to base when I saw a few clones and a wooden gate. I then ran there, with my master trailing behind. Mortar told us what was happening and that this was the last standing village that was gonna be burned down if they spotted us there. I infiltrated it and me and my master started leaping from roof top to roof top. We got to a women and fought her finally Philip cut her head off as we kept on moving. We got to two more bosses that were much harder. "We knew you would come." Said one of them. "FOR MANDALORE!!!" Yelled another and they attacked. We cut them down after a fight and were gonna leave when another mandalorian touched down. "Vizla," I said. He started shooting us with pistols but he saw us winning and pulled out his darksaber. He lunged and got close to my face but I blocked it. "Your a murderer not a Jedi." I then pushed him back and made him go into a wall. I then tried to stab him but he rolled and I hit his jetpack instead. He flew into a hut then up and away. I had a big cut but I ignored it. We met up with Nightra Portglide a very close friend to us, Clone Commando Sergeant Jason Chillblade(CWA name is Xavier Thorten now), and Clone ARC Jacen Zetblaster. We flew in an LAAT Gunship and saw a crashed Seperatist Frigate. We touched down there and saw hundreds of droids of all types that survived the crash. I jumped down a cliff to greet them and started fighting them, along with Philip and Nightra. Sergeant Blade and Captain Zetblaster got split from us and were a far way off. We fought a magnaguard after we killed the others and it was very hard to kill. We landed many blows and Philip got knocked out. Blade and Zetblaster were coming but they were far. When they came they sprayed it from behind and then I jumped at it spinning one saber behind its head and one stabbed through it and jumped off it, cutting off its head. I was very hurt and half of me was cut and my coat and hood were ripped. I faded in and out of conciousness and finally feinted and Blade caught me. A gunship extracted us out of there and got us back to the Spitfire. When I regained conciousness I saw Philip yelling at Blade and Zetblaster for not staying with me. "They should be awarded not yelled at." I said. Everyone stared at me and Night came over and asked me how I feeled. "Im good, Im good." I looked at a mirror and saw half my coat was blown off and I was covered in soot from head to toe and had cuts and burns on every part of me. "SEE? THEY ALMOST LEFT YOU TO GET KILLED!" I argued with him a bit more until he calmed down. He then returned to Carlac while I fed him info. I had managed to grab the magnaguard's head and connected it to the computer. "It appears to have some SHIP armor in it. It is a new model, IG-113." He started to ask me some questions and I fed him all the info. Finally Night spotted something in a photo. It was on top of the crashed frigate. A cloaked figure stood there. After some more of this I headed down and met Philip there and Joshua Skywalker (His name on CWA is Joshua Skywalker1). We went to an outpost and finally killed the boss that had escaped. Master Yoda told us that there was still some resistance but he thanked us for our work and told us to go get some rest. That was one day to rest for. We all went back to the Spitfire.... and finally went to sleep.

THE GREAT ESCAPE
"Keep running!" I panted as I ran after Wilmore, my brother. We were on the run but they were close behind and if either one of us fell... I woke up, sweating and immediately remembered where I was. We were on Kashyyyk, at a hidden Seperatist base. I saw my brother sitting on the floor staring at the rotting food on his plate. He then looked at me and muttered, "Good morning." I just looked out the small dirty window. There was a platoon of droids walking around camp with and two B1 battle droids guarding the door. I made a quick check in my head on why we were there.

TWO DAYS AGO.....

I stood on the cruiser, the Liberty, with my master, Philip, brother Wilmore, and Jedi Master Mace Windu. He was briefing us on a mission. "There have been Seperatist activities on the planet Kashyyyk. We had sent some men there but they never returned. Originally we would ingore this, but there have been reports of Grievous traveling there and he is one of the keys to ending the war. Jedi Master Philip Skywalker, you will monitor Jedi Knights Derek and Wilmore Skywalker's progress from on board your cruiser, the Liberty. You young Skywalkers will be going in and finding out what is going on -use any means necessary to complete this mission. "Yes master." We both said. We went to the hanger and climbed into our Phase II starfighters. "Lets go." I said into the comlink. We took off and flew down to Kaskyyyk, the planet waiting below us. As we were zooming by the 300 feet trees, I told Wil,"Theres a clearing up ahead it might be the base. Pull up." Just as I said that, Anti-aircraft batteries started firing at us. Flak buffeted us but I finally got hit in the wing. I started spiraling to the ground and I jumped out of my fighter as it crashed below lighting up the trees around it in an explosion. I pulled my hood on and ducked into a bush. I waited until Wilmore came and found me. We then headed out and hid by trees when patrols passed by, our cloaks helping us blend in. While we were wallking my foot fell into a four foot ditch. I realized that it was a tunnel. We started crawling through it and it took us to a metal disc that covered the top. I pushed it up a bit and saw that we were at the heart of the base. I stood up about to activate my saber but Wil held me down. "There are other ways to fighting." He gave me a thermal detonator and told me to set it on a fuel tank. "I thought you said that you will never give me a bomb again. He smiled and said, "Don't push it." I Force pushed it slowly to a miniature fuel tank. It exploded and sent us flying sky high. We landed in a bush and I tried talking to Philip. He wouldn't answer and even though we didn't know, he was sent on a different mission. "Come on we need to-" I was interrupted by the sound of guns clicking.

We slowly turned around and saw three platoons of droids and one Seperatist gunship hovering near by. "Put your hands up." Said a B1. Wil whispered to me and said, "We could take 'em." I whispered back, "Don't take chances." We put our hands up and got lead into the base. I was already trying to think on how to escape. They took us to Grievous who was hunched over a holotable. He turned around and looked at us trying to intimidate us. "Ah, the Skywalker brothers." He looked at me and said "Derek Skywalker, correct? I would have expected someone else to go on such dangerous mission. They shouldn't send a boy to fight us." I finally talked back saying, Well General, you know what they say, It doesn't matter about the size of the rancor in the fight, it matters about the fight IN the rancor." "You will soon learn that cuts both ways." He said. In my head I said, "When did he become a smart a**? The droids then took us away to an interoggating room. They made me go into a cell while they interoggate Wil. When he came back he looked like he was in alot of pain. They then took me and hung me up by energy shackles. They started shocking me and hitting me with whips but I refused to let Grievous, who was standing in the corner, get what he wanted. Finally though they injected me with a drug to keep me awake as they tortured me to the fullest. I couldn't take it any more. I let out a very loud and piercing scream as they finally stopped. I fell unconcious. They tossed me into the cell and then Will put me on a bed.

THEN...



So now you know what happened. Anyway, I wanted to plan our escape as soon as possible. All that left of our robes were ripped pants and a torn piece that wrapped around my waist. Will looked pretty much the same. I finally told a plan I made to Wil and he agreed to it. When the droids came to take the trays we closed the door behind them and then took the water and slammed it into them, short-circuting them, and we took the blasters. We opened the door and saw many droids at work. My heart raced. With blasters we could attack from a distance but not block any shots. I centered my self with the Force and then shot a droid in the head. Alarms blared as we ran into the jungle. After running for like a mile, we found a pack of maru beasts and tamed two with the Force. We got onto them and let them run, who were faster then humans. Finally after exhausting them they whent to a pond and wouldn't move. So we got off them. Then three STAPS came and started shooting at us. I jumped and kicked one of its speeder and force pulled a droid into Wil blaster fire then Wil jumped onto its STAP, as we shot down the last one. We got far enough but they flew into trees and we jumped onto a high bridge that had running water under us. We were exhausted and hadn't eaten for three days and forced to drink water with floating bug larvaes in them. We crawled on the bridge and carrying blasters seemed like hauling boulders. We got rid of one and just had a nova knife for defense. We found Grievous waiting for us on the other side of the bridge.

He activated his sabers and cut the bridge and it started falling as we hung onto one side of it. I then Force pulled two sabers and gave one to to Wil. I nodded. If we were going to die, then we would die in honor. I yelled out to Grievous, "I am Jedi Knight Derek Skywalker, proud Guardian of the Republic. I will live and die as a Jedi!" I yelled out and got filled with new energy and jumped to him kicking him in the face. Wil said something similiar and jumped and attacked Grievous too. We cut off his hands and I jumped over Grievous holding my nova knife to his neck and saber on the other side. I then used the Force to get the grapple from his arm and had it wrap around the General. We had captured General Grievous. Just then we found an outpost and I snuck into it to send out a distress call while Wil watched Grievous. It was night when an Acclamator cruiser came out of hyperspace and for gunships came and landed. Clones grinned as they saw us and Jedi Masters Yoda, Windu, Philip, and Greg came along with clones. Mace stepped forward and me and Wil bowed in our pretty much ripped off clothes. "This one is for the books. Jedi." Even though we couldn't keep Grievous in our grip, we were known through out the whole Order.

MY STUFF


[[[[[[[ My ships ]]]]]]]]

THE RETURN
I grabbed my tray and sat down in the mess hall with my men, Havoc. Also Clone Commander Dax was there talking with them. I sat down and when he saw me he said, "Here is the Skywalker!" I smiled and started to eat my food along with them. When we finished, we started walking down a hall way that lead to the bridge. As I got there I was immediatley called to the captains quarters. I turned around again and ran off with Dax to see one of his men. "Why do you request us?" Dax asked. "This is why." He said, pointing to a holotable. "Three days ago we sent men to Voss." As he spoke the holotable turned on, revealing a blue planet with four moons around it. "They never returned. We tried making contact with them mulitple times. I dunno what happened." "Yeah well let me guess, you think we should go there and risk our lives to figure out what happened. If anything happened." I said. "Well I didn't exactly say that but... yes." He answered. "Awesome!" Yelled Dax. "Well lets go. Dax get your team ready." Dax became serious. "Understood. We will move out at moments notice." He said, then he left. "Well... good luck." Said the clone. I walked away and saw Dax in the hanger briefing his fellow clones. When I walked up he turned around and said, "The gunships ready we are gonna go in with as low of a signature as possible." "Understood. Well lets go." We climbed into the gunship as the sides closed. Lights turned on in the gunship and we flew out of the hanger. After an hour, the pilots told us that Voss was in sight. Then we heard an explosion. The pilot yelled that we were under attack from unidentified forces. "Code Red!" I yelled. "Lock down, NOW!" Red lights turned on as the pilots sped through the killzone. "We're hit! The controls are dead and we are going into a nosedive!" Yelled a pilot. We were rocked back and forth when finally we passed through the atmosphere I activated my saber and cut a hole and yelled for everyone to jump. I tossed jetpacks to everyone and they jumped through. I jumped after them and used the Force to brace the landing for me, for I didn't get a jetpack.

When we landed I saw two fighters chasing the going down LAAT. "Let's go." I said We got another three gunships to come through after we told CENTCOM (Central Command) what happened. They were filled with clones. "Ok lets move." We started walking through a wasteland and then droids found us. I lead the clones through while the commander went from behind. Dax sprayed them with his rifle. Then a women jumped out of a dune and attacked the last droid with a green vibroblade. Everyone aimed at her. "Your name." I said. "Perank Asteragin." She answered. "Im part of the Rebellion" "Rebellion?" I asked. "Yes, you don't know about the Rebellion? "Apperently not."I answered. "Well there is a tyrant here who sided us with the Seperatists, we all are trying to get back a decent democracy, but... it isn't going that great." She said. "The Republic sent spies here to find out what happened, Voss never answered to our calls." The spies weren't very lucky..." I said. "Well now you know why we never answered" Perank answered. "Well we're here to help Perank." "Thank you. Come this way our headquarters are the cliffs." She said. I motioned for the men to follow and we walked with Perank to the base that was IN a cliff. The men there had blasters and vibroblades. I told the men to stay with the rebels while I wen to their Command Center but told two men to go with me. There, I contacted the High Jedi Council and debriefed them on what is happening on Voss. They said they would send reinforcements and I thanked them for it. Then I jumped from the base and landed on a rock on a side of a tall cliff. Two rebels and four clones came with me. I kept climbing and got to the top. Then I put on my hood. I sat under a rock and waited. Soon, two LAAT gunships came and dropped off fourteen men- along with my brother older brother Wilmore Skywalker. We nodded to each other when all of a sudden a gunship exploding, sending us flying.

I caught onto the edge of the cliff and grabbed Wil. The clones that had fallen had shot grapple hooks and climbed back up. Since me and Wil were dangling from a far point off the cliff, the clones couldn't help us. "Wil... Help me out!" I tried hauling Wil up but he slipped and we both fell down. "Ahhhhh!" We both yelled. I used my cloak to try and slow me down then I turned and shot a grapple and when it caught on I grabbed Wil. I heard clones yelling and saw droids had started attacking. "Hold on.. A bit..... Longer!" I said. I looked up and saw vultures flying through the air and droids advancing. All of a sudden a shot flew past me as me and Wil dangled from the rope. I looked down and saw a spider droid coming up. "Wil!" I need you to-!" A shot hit me in the arm and made me fall down. I got mad this time. I spun and kicked off the spider droid grabbed its cannon and, while in mid air, threw it into a vulture droid. The vulture droid began falling and I got on it and caught Wil. We then jumped off it and landed in a cave. I couldn't see a thing. I grabbed Wil's shoulder and followed him. I activated my blue bladed lightsaber for light. "Where are we...?" I asked. Wil didn't answer. We then found it lead to a spear like cliff that had torches on the side. I started to walk back but then saw Wil standing there a bit longer. "C'mon? man! There is still a battle goin' on." He nodded and followed me back. We fought the droids and regrouped with the rebels in their base. We stayed there for a few days and on the fourth day a hurricane hit. "We gotta do recon, hurricane or not, Derek." Said Wil. I nodded in agreement and walked into my Jedi Starfighter. "I'll meet you in an hour, just gonna scout the area. I flew out and was immediately rocked by the hurricane winds. I tried contacting the base but all I got was static. I frowned and kept flying.

I spun the ship around and was trying to fly back to base when I saw a black figure standing on a cliff. I sensed the Dark Side surround him. All of a sudden he let out lightning from his hand and shot it at the ship, short-circuiting all the controls. I activated my saber and jumped out and was about to land near the figure when he Force pushed me into the wall. I jumped at him and started running. I was about to cut his head off when he pulled off his hood. My saber was stopped inches from his face. It was my old friend, Athan Nightkept (CWA name is athan nightkept1). "Athan?" He looked up and smiled at me then took out his red Saber. "Hello old friend," he said with a smile. He lunged and I quickly parried. We then started circling each other, with the wind and rain wipping our cloaks. "You betrayed me Athan." I called out. "Why?!?! Huh, why?!?! For power? FOR POWER?!" I screamed. He answered in a calm voice, "You Skywalkers betrayed me. Left me for dead on Geonosis!" I answered in a calm voice, "It was me that left you Athan. Not them. I thought you were dead. If you were alive I swear I would have tried to save you. I swear." He looked at me through his wet hair. I heard the howling winds and thunder in the background but I didn't care. "That was one fatal mistake Derek." He said as he raised his blood red saber. "I will do what I must." "You will try Derek, oh you will try." He yelled and attacked me and a fierce duel started. I had to focus on blocking rather then attacking because he was striking fast. He showed no sign of tiredness when I was drenched in sweat. I attempted to do moves like Master Strike and Sundering Strike but barely got enough time to raise my saber. He fought gracefully with one hand and I realized that I knew only one other person who fought like that. I jumped back onto a skinny crossing. "Ghost. You were trained by no other than Ghost." I said through pants and gasps. He smiled a cruel smile and I noticed his yellow eyes. He jumped onto the crossing but I cut his saber hilt in half as he was landing. He then punched me and my saber flew down into the deep, deep ravine.

We then grabbed each other and began struggling to push each other off. I gritted my teeth through all rain in wind but, as much as I was struggling, I would NOT give up. He got me down and half my body was off the ledge and he was almost on top of me. He kept trying to push me down but I kept resisting. I then kicked him in the soft spot grabbed his shirt and head butt him. I then threw him over me into a big colosseum. Even though I hadn't realized, that colosseum was from the Old Republic era. I kicked him into a pillar and it crumbled on him. I thought he had died but then it exploded and sent me flying. I lost conciousness for a bit but saw him walking a to me. He picked me up from my shirt and I, who was too hurt to fight, thought this was the end of me. He pulled his fist back and hit me in the face. Blood started trickling out of my nose. He hit me again, this time my lip started bleeding, he grabbed me from my hair and dragged me, while I left a blood trail, onto a stone tablet. He then elbowed me in the head so hard he broke the tablet. I couldn't see straight anymore and was blacking out. He threw me into a pillar but when it broke, there sat the most precious thing in existence. Something that had no price to it, used by the most feared enemy. It was no other then Darth Revans mask and lightsabers. He pulled the mask and a room appeared that had all the gear. On next to it had the words, "For every Darkness there is Light." There sat Jedi Guardian gear along with, I don't know how, my own saber. I began crawling while Athan got on the suit. I made it half way when he got it fully on. He started putting the lightsabers on his belt. One by one he elegantly put them. I had almost reached the armor. He then grabbed the mask with two hands and slowly lifted it. I grabbed the gear and right when he put on the mask, he turned around and saw me with the Guardian Robes on. I had armor in my robes and the robes didn't feel heavy nor light. It felt perfect.

Athan cackled as he pulled on the black hood onto his face. Then red smoke started coming from him as his whole body turned red. I had a sudden urge to sit down and when I did blue smoke started rising from me. Even though I was still badly hurt, I felt great after I finished. I smiled and took out my lightsaber with pride. "I am Derek Skywalker, Guardian of Peace, Savior of the Republic, and Defeater of Darkness." I said proudly. "I am Athan Nightkept, Dark Lord of the Sith, Protector of Darkness, and the Diminisher of Light." He answered." We then started fighting and I jumped over his blade as it missed me by half a millimeter. We fought a very hardcore duel when all of a sudden the Guardian robes disappeared, along with the Revan clothes and sabers. I felt terrible again and couldn't see straight like before the robes but I had my saber though. And he had his. "Farewell for now Derek but in that suit I tapped into dark powers. Next time you face me, you might not live." He said. He jumped into his fighter right as it flew by. I got into mine and returned to the base. "Oh stang Derek! Get him a medic, now!" Wil said. After they helped me up, two weeks after we finished up and left. I debriefed the Order about what happened. I didn't stop trying until I made Old Republic robes. I has used them with rebel gear I picked up on Ondoron. "Well Derek I might start taking you with me on my missions after all." I smiled and left to my quarters in the Jedi Temple. Lets cal this a day, I said in my head. And, with that, I fell asleep.

THE DESTRUCTION OF JABIIM
"Come.....on..." I panted as I flipped off a pole. I landed on a skinny pipe and run across then flipped onto another little pipe, jumped off and hit the ground running. I was covered in sweat. I sat down and wiped my face with a towel. I then took off my sleeveless shirt and rain, using it as a little hook to grab onto posts. I was practicing in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Nightra Portglide, Wilmore Skywalker, Philip Skywalker, Kool Skywalker, and Aari Skywalker were all watching me practice as they also reviewed a plan. "Thats my little brother right there!" Wil said. He then looked over at Night and said, "See that move? I taught him that." Night just rolled her eyes. As I was practicing, Yoda come into the room. I stopped and jumped off a roof of a little building in there. I landed and bowed before him. "Master Yoda it is an honor. What can I do for you?" "Seen you practice, I have. Great Jedi Knight you will become. But far from over your training is." I nodded. I hated when people said about how I wasn't gonna finish training. He then climbed onto my back and said, "Go now, practice. I will stay here with you and watch. I kept jumping and flipping as Yoda gave me some tips. Then, he said he needed to go and left. I sat down.

I got on my robes and then walked with Night and the others. "Nice Job Derek!" Complimented Night. "Thanks." I mumbled. "-And that is why we are needed there." Finished up Philip. "Ok Phil... We'll go there. Tomrrow." I left to my newly aquired ship, the Defender, and headed up the ramp. A droid that was assigned to it, C2-N2 began giving me a tour of the ship. "And this is where you can sleep." He said."Thank you. Oh and by the way C2, take us to Tython. The ships are meeting up there. Oh yeah, and send contact my cruiser and tell them to go there too." "Yes master" He said. The next day, I woke up and pulled on my robes, along with my glove over my cybernetic arm. Over the coms, C2 said, "Good Morning sir would you like me to bring you your breakfest?" "Na Im good, Im gonna just talk a small ration." "Are you sure master?" "Yes, oh and dock the ship in my command cruiser." "Very well sir."

ORDER 66, THE FALL OF THE JEDI
I yawned as I sat in the Captains Quarters on a Republic Cruiser. Wil was practicing some saber moves using a training droid while I just meditated. All of a sudden, I felt a great darkness shatter my concentration. I opened my eyes and saw Wil looking at me. He felt it too. Suddenly my comlink turned on. It was Admiral Firon. "Yes Admiral?" I said. "Sir I need you and Master Wilmore. It is urgent." He said. "We will be right there." I answered. I looked at Wil. "Why would we be called, we aren't under attack..." I said. "I dunno Derek just.... Stay frosty." He answered. With a nod, I left the room, followed by Wil. As we walked to the bridge I noticed the clones looking at us. Since I was wearing a Jedi Cloak, they didn't see me, but my hand inched closer to my saber. By instinct I knew I would need it. "We are here Admiral." Said Wil. Firon turned around and said, "Ah yes, now as you can see..." All of a sudden the clones swarmed us raising their blasters and fired. Wil and I leaped into action. We went back to back deflecting shots back at clones while Firon kept yelling, "Kill them! Kill them!" I jumped onto a clone and flipped him into blaster fire that was coming at me. I then cornered Firon as Wil cut down the last clone. I had my saber pointed to Firons neck. "Why did you betray us?!" I yelled. "I had to, he told us to execute Order 66." "Who did?!?" Yelled Wil. "I can not tell you his name" he answered. "GRR!" I yelled and put my saber through his neck. He let out a scream then died. More clones were on the way. "C'mon Wil." I jumped and grabbed a grate leading to the air vents. When I pulled it out, I jumped in, helping Wil up. I Force closed the grate- and just in time. Clones swarmed the bridge as they looked for us. "Where are they? Did you find them?" Asked a clone commander. "No sir" answered a clone. "Well then keep looking! Emperor Palpatine will not tolerate failure." Said the commander. I looked at Wil. Emperor Palpatine... Chancellor Palpatine! "Palpatine was the one behind it all along! I whispered. "Yeah... Lets get to the Tiger." Said Wil.

When we got to Wil's ship, I contacted someone who I knew and was part of the Senate. "Jasmine Rosejoy, do you copy? I said again, "Jasmine, do you copy?" I got static but then Jasmine picked up. "Yeah, I hear you." "Jasmine! Are you with Casey?" I asked through static. "Who?" She replied. "You know, Casey, your husband." "Oh..." She answered. "Yeah, so well are you with him?" "No, I haven't talked to him in about.... Forever. Something is wrong..." She replied. I silently cursed. We needed all the help we could get. "Anyway, what is going on? What's this, Emperor Palpatine? When has the REPUBLIC had an Emperor?" I asked. "It never has..." She replied gloomily. "Derek... The very Republic we knew is now the Galactic Empire." I felt like I got stabbed in the chest. "That has gone against everything the Jedi, Republic alike, has stood up for! Where's the democracy in that?!" I yelled/asked. "I don't know... I am as confused as you... But right now Palpatine is ordering Jedi to be slaughtered! We have to do something, or all the Jedi will be killed! And we will be next!" Jasmine said with worry. She continued to talk to a stunned Derek, saying "I'm so sorry Derek... But his apprentice is your relative- Anakin Skywalker." That was the last thing I heard before I blacked out.

When I woke up, I was in a bed. Kool, Wil, Greg (TheGrand Skywalker), Kole, and all my relatives and close friends like Nightra Portglide where there. I let out a sigh of relief. Everyone looked at me. I noticed Jasmine and Casey were not here yet but thought Jasmine went to get Casey... Just though the thought of what's happening was too much. I overheard Night telling the others, "Derek's too young to be seeing all this blood and slaughter. Something must be done." "Agreed." Said Greg. I got mad. If there was one thing I hated, it was being discriminated because of my age. "I am NOT too young Night. My mother left me when I was born. I think I can handle this." Everyone immediately looked at me, not knowing I was awake until I had spoken. Aari came over and asked, "Derek are you ok? We're on Tatooine and at your Uncle Kole's mansion. Do you need anything?" "Grr...NO! I AM NOT A LITTLE BOY! STOP TREATING ME LIKE ONE!" I fumed. I ran into the garage and pulled out a speeder bike. I didn't care where I went. I just wanted to get away from all of this...I came to a cliff and parked my speeder. I sat at the end and wept. Not for me, but for the Republic, the Jedi. Maybe Night was right... Maybe I was too young for this... I thought. I looked up, my face in anger. Or maybe I better shove myself down a rancor's throat! I then heard a speeder park and I looked behind me. Wil was here. "What do you want?" I asked as I turned around again. I hid my face in my robes and my cloak. I didn't want my great brother to see me weeping. "I came to calm you down Derek. I know... I know that you have been through some rough times and our relative- Anakin- being the man we have to kill..." "Stop! I won't kill him! I won't! I... I..." I wept again as Wil sat down next to me, patting me on the back. "It's ok Derek..." "No it's not! Look at what's happening! We started off neutral, no war, freedom! Of course that was before I was born but still we went from freedom, to war, to slaughter, to death!" "Derek I know what your feeling. We all do. But we HAVE to stand up against the Empire. We have to do something!" "Wil... Sometimes at night I wonder if being a Jedi is no better then being a Sith." "What, why?!" "Because we fight for a corrupt government." "Well... That's now, but I'm still going to be a Jedi. To the very damn end." I nodded. I felt new courage build inside me. "Thanks Wil... You really helped me." "Right... Well Derek lets get back to the mansion." Said Wil. We jumped onto our speeder bikes and, even though it was noisy from the engines, we chatted. "Derek What do you want to do? We're heavily outnumbered." "Then we rally to our cause. I know a few people who would never kill Jedi." I said. With that, we parked in the garage. Wil and I snuck up to the roof, where the communication tech was put. I grabbed a microphone and said, "Luke Docker do you copy? I say again Luke Docker do you copy?" "This is Corporal Docker, identify yourself." "Luke! It's me, Derek." "Derek! I'm glad to hear your voice. What are your coordinates?" "Why do you want to know...?" "We are rebelling from the Empire, we need all the men we can get. Your a Jedi, you will be a great ally." "Yes I have my whole family here." "Great!" "Yeah... Oh and bring a frigate that has weapons in it. And I mean LOTS of weapons." "What are you planning Derek?" I just smiled. "You'll see."

We went downstairs and, after getting chewed out by everyone, me and Wil debriefed them on what happened. "Ok I'm going to Mos Espa. I will take Kool and Wil. Aari and Night, you guys go to Anchorhead. Greg, go to Mos Eisley. Kole get us a ride from the jawas." "Oh, yeah you guys get to go party it up with the Empire but I need to go get a ride from a few meddling rats in a hood with glowing eyes." Said Kole. "Ah quiet Uncle, we all need each other and you will be getting us out, and alive if you don't mind." "I'll try." He replied. "We move out at night, we have a less likely chance of detection. We also need to change. We can't walk out with Jedi Robes on." A few hours passed and I woke up and got dressed in plain robes with wrappings as boots and gloves. I checked my holowatch. It was one in the morning. When I walked out of my room, I saw the others in the garage. I had contacted Luke one more time and we went over a plan. "Ok guys we all know what we need to do." "Yes, good luck and may the Force be with you all." Said Greg. I pulled on a scarf and it wrapped most of my face. When we walked out we all nodded to each other and went separate ways. Kool, Wil, and I then sprinted to Mos Espa. The Empire had gotten ahead of us, they had deployed clone troopers on Tatooine. I snuck behind a wall with Kool and Wil. I nodded to Kool and he jumped behind a clone, snapped his neck then stabbed a knife into the other one. He motioned for us to move up. I put my lightsaber up my sleeve. I then dragged the clones and shoved them into a dumpster. Wil and I grabbed the guns and applied silencers to them. Kool took a DC-17 blaster pistol, with a silencer, and we moved out. I shot a clone in the head as Kool jumped onto a roof. I climbed onto a high building and killed the clone sniper there. I grabbed his DC-15X (clone sniper rifle) and sniped clones as Wil and Kool moved through the city. I then placed a little black holoprojector onto the building and jumped off the building. I then all of a sudden landed on an air speeder. The clone said, "What the-" then he tried shooting me. I jumped behind him and broke his arm. "Agh!" He yelled. I then took restraint binders and put them on his legs and arms. I pulled off his helmet then put duct tape on his mouth. He kept struggling so I knocked him out with a quick punch to the face. I drove the air speeder and then, as I was contacted by Imperial Command, I pulled on the troops helmet. "ST-1224 come in." An Imperial Officer said. "This is ST-1224 what do you need command?" I ask through the helmet. "I want you to report back to base, your squad shuttle is leaving in two hours. "Very well. I'm on my way now." I closed the call and smiled. Luke would be here in half an hour... I then contacted Wil and Kool via comlink. "Did you guys set them?" I asked. "Yeah we're a go." Replied Kool. Ok I got an air speeder and am on my way to pick you guys up." As I flew, I undid the binders on the sleeping clone. I then tipped the speeder and the clone fell out. I knew he would have amnesia from the hit, and it was cruel to just kill him. I would give him a chance at survival. I then picked up Kool, Wil, and the others. We went to the mansion and it was silent the whole way. I drove with Kool next to me and Wil between the girls in the back. Greg had beaten us to the mansion. When we landed, we all just sat on the balcony. I sat down with my feet hanging and Wil and Kool sat down next to me. Night and Aari went to get Arkanian sweet milk from the kitchen. "You ok little bro?" Asked Kool. "Yeah I'm ok. You?" "I'm good..." I turned to look at Wil. "How about you Wil?" "I'm ok man just... I wish I was with Sarl right now." I smiled. I then looked at the suns rising over Tatooine. It was beautiful. "Guys... I just want you guys to know... If this will be our last day together..." "Derek don't say that." Said Wil softly. "... Then I just want to let you guys know that I love you both. You were both there for me. You both would even risk your lives for me... Something that I can never repay." "Aww thanks Derek your the greatest little bro." Said Wil and Kool at the same time. We all laughed. We then heard some giggles behind us and we saw Night and Aari recording us on their holophone. "Hey!" We yelled. We ran up and started chasing them. Night leaped over the couch and I jumped over it then grabbed the phone. Aari then took it. Then Wil. Then Kool. And so on. We finally all crashed into each other and we all laughed. This was just like old times. Greg came down from the roof and saw us. He laughed but then said, "Derek you have a call from someone named Luke something." "Ok be there in a sec." I deleted the video on Aari's phone and tossed it back to her then went and talked with Luke. "Derek we are coming into the Arkanis Sector. We will see you in a sec." "Very well." "Good luck Derek." "You too. I will be looking forward to talking to you soon." I replied. I looked into the sky and saw different types of Republic Cruisers. They were Star Destroyers. Then Republic Cruisers came and began fighting the Star Destroyers. "Ok c'mon guys! Our help is here! The mission is a go!" I yelled. I got into the airspeeder and Kool joined me. Wil and the others were going to take speeder bikes from different routes. I flew out of the garage. I let Kool drive instead and I shot the guns at clones. Then all of a sudden HUGE holograms of Luke flickered on around all the cities. "Fellow people of Tatooine. The time has come. The Republic was the people I, Luke Docker, swore to defend. Never the Empire. Now, I telll you all to rally behind us and fight the Empire!" A few clones tried shooting the holo but nothing happened. "I have sent a shuttle and friends of mine will help you. They are Jedi. When the shuttle arives, grab a blaster and defend Tatooine." Kool then made the speeder fly by as i shot at the clones down below. There was riot everywhere. Ships were destroyed, people were fighting the clones, taking guns, and it was all around chaos. I blasted at clones as Wil and the others crashed their speeders into clones, then activating their sabers and killing clones all around. I wished Kool good luck then jumped down and force pushed a clone into an oil barrel. I kicked another one and stabbed a third. It was hard to kill them. Many of them I had fought with. I force lifted two and threw them into each other. I fought some more but then saw a clone coming with a rotary cannon. I saw rebels and clones fall on both sides. I ran to the clone and stabbed him in the heart. I picked up the cannon, deactivated my saber, and shot a clone who was about to kill a defenseless rebel. I sprayed the clone with lasers then said, "hey brother catch." And threw the rotary to him. He picked it up, grinned, and started blasting away. I then jumped onto an ARC-170 ship is at came down I put my saber through the cockpit and then jumped off. I saw a Y-wing about to do a strafing run so when it released the bombs, I used the force to lift it them right into the Y-wings way. I looked away as I heard and felt an explosion. It crashed into an adobe and I saw a baby crying, and covered in blood in the wreckage. I ran into the adobe and force pushed some stuff and picked the baby up. It was a girl. I grabbed a blanket and wrapped her with it, leaving only the arms and face exposed. She was crying. I started running to get her to safety when I got shot in the shoulder. Everything slowed down. I dropped the baby and fell. When two clones came up they said, "freeze!" I heard their guns click and I knew this was the end of me. All of a sudden a clone got stabbed in the leg with a saber. My saber. It was the baby girl looking up at him yelling, "bad meanie! Bad meanie!" I used this oppurtunity to tackle the other clone and took his gun and stunned him. I then hit the stabbed clone with the butt of the gun. I smiled as I picked up the girl and she gave me my saber. I put it on my belt and kept running, despite my wound to the shoulder. An explosion came near me and I covered the baby with my body as shrapnel rained down on us. A big piece stabbed me in the leg and I let out a scream. Then a Republic LAAT gunship landed and when it opened, Luke Docker, Xavier Thorten (his wiki is called gladiator3 Chris), and a few other clones that defied order 66 came. I knew them but couldn't recognize them. My vision started doubling and soon I was blacking out. Captain Xavier "Skull" Thorten and Corporal Luke Docker came and put my arms around their necks and started dragging me. "Don't... Worry about me... The baby... Give her too her mom..." I gave them the baby then completely blacked out. When I regained concious, I was on the side of the LAAT and I was still seeing doubles. When I looked up I wished that my vision made me see what I was seeing. Wil, Night, Thorten, Kool, Kole, Greg, Aari, and Like were all forming a circle back to back shooting and blocking weapons from all around. Rebels tried to help but were getting quickly gunned down. The Empire had sent two more Star Destroyers to join along with Vaders Fist. I got up, stumbled, and fell back down. I started crawling and leaving a huge blood trail behind me. I got into the middle of the circle and started deflecting shots with my saber while on the ground. When it looked like all was lost, four LAAT's flew by with V-19 Torrent fighters flying with it. Luke looked confused. We all did too. Except for me. I smiled and yelled, "Jasmine!" In the second LAAT gunship was Jasmine Rosejoy along with CPLCasey Layman. When they l            landed, the LAAT's took off and started shooting rockets at clones. When Casey saw us, he waved. He kept deflecting shots but then he quickly told us what happened. Turned out when Jasmine went to find Casey, Casey was assembling men who defied order 66. They had scrambled for weapons and got a Republic Acclamator class cruiser. They could only get torrent fighters, AT-RT's, gunships, and seventy three men to join the cause, not including us. The battle went by and when we won the whole place was destroyed. Flames and wreckage EVERYWHERE. Even though it was hard, I found out that the mother got her child back. The mother had thanked me a lot and tried to pay me with credits and since I saw that they were very poor, I gave her three thousand credits instead. She thanked me a lot and then left with a huge smile on her face. I limped in pain and grabbed my shoulder as I made way to a custom medical base, which was a bunch of tents put up with medics working on wounded soldiers that are on beds. I told the head medic about my wounds. He began to treat them and I yelled when he pulled out the big piece of shrapnel that was embedded in my leg. He applied a bacta pack onto my shoulder and told me I was good to go. He wrapped my leg with gauze, wished me luck, and left to treat another patient. I went to the War Room, which was in the sandcrawler that Kole bought from the jawas. We interoggated a clone and got some answers. "We were lucky to survive." I said. "Agreed. he must be cautious. Now anybody can me an enemy of ours." Luke said.? "It's just great that we're survivors of this "Jedi Purge." "I say that we vote to help create a Rebel Alliance." Luke said. "Yes we must once more earn freedom for the galaxy." Said Greg. I chuckled. "What's so funny Derek?" Wil asked. "It's like the war with the Seperatists. They, in a way, were a Rebel Alliance fighting to break away from the Republic. Now it's US as the "Sepratists" trying to break away from the Empire." They all laughed. "You know what they say, lifes a circle." Kool said. I laughed once more and said, "agreed." We had survived the Great Jedi Purge.
