STAR WARS EPISODE VII: Forces of Retrograde

991 43 7

Darkness rises, and light to meet it. Eighteen years ago, the Second Death Star was destroyed, and the Empire fell with it. The heroes of the Alliance to Restore the Republic celebrated the victory and set to work writing a new galactic peace into law. But unbeknownst to them all, despite the treaties and promises, the war between good and evil, democracy and dictatorship, was left unfinished -- postponed until an impossible stalemate could be broken.Now, the New Republic is confident in its security. But as its influence grows, so too does its blindness to a new threat rising from the hidden corners of the Outer Rim, consolidating power under the direction of the elusive Lord Synhaid. The Senate's scattered loyalties need a rallying point before he unleashes his ultimate weapon, but with the galaxy's last Jedi Knight missing and the dark side of her own parentage suddenly public knowledge, Major General Leia Organa and her allies -- Lady Ahsoka Tano, Senator Lux Bonteri, and Sergeant Poe Dameron -- may be the only ones left to stand in Synhaid's way...Until a Force-sensitive slave girl from Tatooine is found in possession of an artifact of incredible power, with strength of her own to match it -- and even eclipse it entirely.---------PART ONE IN A SEQUEL TRILOGY REWRITE.---------Cover by me, pieced together using stills from The Mandalorian, The Last Jedi, and The Rise of Skywalker. I own none of these properties.This story is compliant with all Disney canon set between Episodes I-VI of the film saga.CHAPTER III will contain mild spice but nothing explicit.…

Slaves Of The Empire {1}

The Republic has fallen.In the final days of the Clone Wars, Chancellor Palpatine died under mysterious circumstances. With the Senate struggling to retain a sense of unity, it was the perfect time for the Separatists to strike. And strike they did.With the galaxy under Confederate control, democracy became dictatorship, and the old ways of the Republic null and void. Now, two years later, the galaxy holds its breath as an archetype for a new planetary economy approaches its final stages of development on the once-proud planet Onderon. Its true king has been reduced to a mere figurehead while the real power lies in the hands of a new Lord Imperator -- power achieved only through the brutal use of slave labor.But hope remains in the unlikeliest of places. A single stroke of good luck bringing Ahsoka Tano into close proximity with the Imperator's successor may be all it takes to rekindle the spark of Onderon's withering spirit.There are some who know they have been slaves of the Empire long enough. And they're ready to fight back, even if it takes everything from them.-:-:-:-:-:-A Senator who holds the key to destroying the Rebellion. A warrior fallen from grace twisted far beyond the point of seeking redemption. An heir to an empire of suffering and destruction. And a Padawan who wants nothing more than to find her way back home.These four players and many more will come together in an alternate universe where Ahsoka Tano and Lux Bonteri never met during the Clone Wars... and that changed everything.-:-:-:-:-:-WARNING: CONTAINS REFERENCES TO ANXIETY AND PTSD, TEENAGE PREGNANCY, SLAVERY, ABUSE, AND OTHER MATURE CONTENT.

Where the Moon Walks

Ahsoka Tano had been on Onderon nearly two months before she understood just how rare a moonless night actually was.The shadows were so thick she could practically breathe them in as she stepped from the old hunting trail into a small clearing made by the recent fall of one of the Iziz region's giant jungle trees. The night air was rich with a thousand scents: pollen, petals, leaf litter, humus. Her lekku twitched against the rough wool of her cloak as they worked to interpret and track bird calls, moving undergrowth, fluttering insects, and--Lux Bonteri stumbled into the clearing after her, hissing curses in his mother tongue -- most of them filthy enough it was obvious he'd learned them from Saw Gerrera. And the passage of errant Senators, she finished, smiling fondly.-:-:-:-:-:-A 'deleted' scene from the night before the events of Star Wars: The Clone Wars S5E5 "Tipping Points".-:-:-:-:-:-Cover by me, pieced together with clipart of a jungle environment and digital interpretations of extrasolar moons.…

-:- Ashes to ashes, embers to flames, she walks another path with another name -:- The Republic Senate is in uproar. As an act of protest against rising taxes on the travel of their hyperspace routes, the Trade Federation has set up a blockade around the planet Onderon, denying any ship the right to land or depart. King Ramses Dendup, the head of the elected planetary monarchy, has no choice but to prepare for the worst: invasion. When the Trade Federation finally strikes, the royal family is forced into hiding, leaving the fate of their world resting in the hands of two Jedi Knights, a handful of surprising allies and the one person who could sign a Trade Federation treaty that would undo everything the Onderonian people has ever built. The Senator for a planet made affluent by many profitable ventures in commerce. A young mechanic with an explosive past from a distant world. The remarkable convergence of circumstances that brought them together could pull them closer in ways that neither of them could ever have expected... or deadly secrets could form an irreparable tear in the fabric of everything they've ever known. Read on and delve into the twists and turns of an old tale -- some well-known and some new -- remastered and retold from a fresh perspective.

To be read after The Unchronicled Adventures Of Ahsoka Tano, Book Ten as a sequel story.V O D E A N || A U A A T S T O R YRex has never been quite the same since Ahsoka died. And no one else has, either -- at least not toward him. Rebel Command treats him as though he's made of glass, stepping warily around him and only assigning him missions far below his level of skill. And without her to breach the gap, he has become something from another era they no longer fully understand. Something... alien.But it's been six months since Malachor, and he has grown tired of having too much time to grieve and not enough distraction to lessen it -- for, as they often said in the GAR, inaction allows old wounds to fester. When new information on a particular incident during the Great Clone War he long thought resolved comes to light, he jumps on the opportunity to strike out on his own and investigate.With the unexpected help of a few old friends with similar objectives that hide shocking secrets, Rex may just be able to get some much needed answers and take the first steps toward redeeming an old wrong. Set against the backdrop of the surprising story behind the Aargonar conflict, Rex will travel from the prison-planet Ayqor to the spice mines of Kessel following a trail of clues laid down almost twenty years ago, in the name of the one thing a clone soldier of the Republic values above all else: brotherhood.Because captain or sergeant, traitor or loyalist, val cuyir su vode an -- they are still brothers all.-:-:-:-:-:-Art credit: composite picture created by me with art by @RinaCane on DeviantArt (Rex in foreground) and the cover art for Legacy of the Force: Sacrifice by Karen Traviss (woman in background).…

From an ember came a spark. From that spark came a flame. And from that flame came unquenchable fire, burning across the galaxy. Hope is ablaze, and dissidence is springing up everywhere from Core to the Outer Rim. But there are those who would seek to put it out for good: namely the agents of the Dark Side behind the government of the Empire and their disciples. After the demise of the Imperial agent know only as The Inquisitor, the title of leader of the sinister Inquisitorius must be passed on to the most powerful of those under its jurisdiction spread across the galaxy. As a power vacuum opens, a new Grand Inquisitor rises from the shadows of obscurity she has lived in for most of her adult life. The rebels aboard the Ghost, as well as the informant Fulcrum, whose true motives are shrouded in mystery, will be hard-pressed to escape the evil that awaits them under the form of Darth Vader and his deadly protégé, the new Grand Inquisitor. But all is not as it seems. Fulcrum and Inquisitor Sorena have a past that would best kept under wraps in these troubled times, but devastating secrets will come to light when a mission to rescue an Imperial defector goes horribly wrong... Sorena's wings of fire unfurl more and more with ever step she takes, and soon she will be forced to make the uncertain jump over the edge of everything she's ever known. And she will find the strength to fly... Or she will fall so far that all hopes for redemption will be lost forever.-:-:-:-:-:- RATED MATURE FOR STRONG LANGUAGE AND SOME SUGGESTIVE THEMES. DISCLAIMER: I do not own Star Wars Rebels (except in my head). The reason you can be sure of this is that Luxsoka has not yet been declared canon and there aren't more Anidala books on the market.

But what about a fanfic that crosses what we know to be make-believe with real life?Sharron is a teenage girl living on the planet Earth who desperately wants to know what it's like to be a Jedi, to live a life other than her own. So, she makes a wish for change.Ahsoka is a teenage Jedi Padawan who wants to know what it's like to be a regular girl, to not have as many responsibilities as she does. And maybe even to discover what it's like to have a family she was born into. She makes the same wish, but doesn't believe it will come true.Kate, a girl with extraordinary powers of the imagination, sets out to grant both of their wishes and show them just what it's like to think - and live - outside of the box. But as Sharron and Ahsoka make mistakes in their switched lives they aren't able to repair, they will discover that perhaps the only things that can save them are the powers of the imagination, which are more potent than they ever knew...Featuring and co-written with @Superkate-Studios , without whose ideas this fic would never have been possible.…

Log 01, 0730 hours Standard time.Okay. Yeah. I'm going to do this. It's about time I got everything sorted. I've seen too much and still I know so little...Anakin Skywalker, his Padawan Ahsoka Tano and Obi-Wan Kenobi have fought countless battles against the Confederacy of Independent Systems in the name of democracy. We knew some of their stories better than they did themselves.But stories are constantly shifting and building themselves anew. Things change. Some of the twists and turns in the long and difficult road to victory are lost. Others are known to all but never spoken aloud for fear of making them true.Others are completely reduced to ashes and blown away on the wind.And so, I present to you the story that never was, and yet always was - the story of the family I never knew, my love for a Togruta I fought with side by side for years, and the Padawan who was erased from history.They forgot about me. They all forgot... But that's okay. Because I didn't, and I can make them remember.Lux Bonteri, Jedi Knight. This is my story.…

Their meeting was the catalyst in their shared discovery that the Clone Wars, and the politics that had formed the divide between peoples and caused it to break out in the first place, were not as black and white as they had once thought.Then, Ahsoka saved Lux from letting his desire for revenge take control of him. She pulled him back from the brink just before he could make a terrible mistake and place his trust in the wrong people. As he would later realize, she helped him see the true nature of things more clearly as he had done once for her soon after they first met.Their paths crossed again in the struggle to free Onderon from an unjust king with a suspicious amount of Separatist backing. And though Lux's budding affections for her had begun to turn to another, their bond remained as strong as ever. After Republic rebel uprising ended in victory, they had to go their separate ways again; Lux to become Senator for Onderon, and Ahsoka to her duties as a Jedi. But what then?This book will explore a variety of storylines about what happens next, alternate and near canon, new and old, platonic and romantic alike, in the form of headcanons or short stories ranging from one-shots to three-parters. On separate sides of a variety of conflicts or investigating undercover for the Rebellion, Lux and Ahsoka will face drama, death, rebirth, new life and everything in between.

It's been six years since we decided we weren't meant to be together.Six years since we decided to call it quits.But I guess not even time itself can keep two people who meant that much to each other apart. Not forever, anyway. Sooner or later, the circumstances draw them back together again.And despite all the hatred, all the wounds inflicted by words like shards of glass or actions with no intent but to cause as much damage as possible that never fully healed, it's strangely easy to hate someone with a passion and, even after all these years, still find yourself falling for them.-:-:-:-:-:-WARNING!
