Star Wars Time-Merger

Anakin: I can't believe this is happening. Seeing past and future, it's insane.
Obi-Wan: Agreed. Though it is fascinating to see it firsthand.
Anakin: How exactly?
Obi-Wan: Well for one the archives often disputed many things about Revan. Even if he was a man or not. Now we know for sure.
Anakin: I'm more concerned about our future, then an ancient Grey Jedi. This Empire... How did the Republic fall to it, and what happens to us? 
Obi-Wan: The implications are disturbing. If we're lucky the answers will present themselves to us.
Anakin: That's what I'm afraid of. We might not like what we-
Obi-Wan: What's wrong?
Anakin: I sense a presence... One, steeped in Darkness. Can't you feel it?!
Obi-Wan: Anakin, the only presence I sense is-
(Mechanical Breathing) 
Obi-Wan: -you.
(Skywalkers future steps from the shadows)
Darth Vader: So, time truly has come undone.

(After Anakin defeats Vader)

Anakin: Maybe I do have a fate. But you're not it!

Vader: (On his knees in front of his past self) Your strength is impressive. (Looks up at Anakin) But it will not change your future. Your destiny lies with me, Anakin Skywalker.

Anakin: SHUT UP! (Raises his saber to strike his future self down)

Obi-Wan: (Grips Anakin's shoulder) Anakin, don't! He's trying to tempt you. Don't let him!

Anakin: (Holds his saber in place for a few seconds before lowering it with a deep exhale. He deactivates it as he turns to face his master) You're right. As always. I'm sorry.

Obi-Wan: Don't be. There's nothing wrong with feeling frustration. Just be sure not to let it consume you.

(Suddenly, both Jedi are blown away onto their backs by a giant gust of wind. They look up to see Vader standing where they once were, his hand extended)

Vader: Your strength is great. But your will to do what is necessary is lacking. One day, you will see the galaxy the way I do. (As the Jedi attempt to stand up) For now, however, I've wasted enough time on you. (Lifts several large stones out of the earth before chucking them at Anakin and Obi-Wan. The pair manage to stop the boulders from smashing into them by grabbing them with the Force, but the distraction allows Vader to reach the edge of a nearby cliff, from which he jumps off. When the Jedi set down the stones and chase after him, they can only watch as Vader's TIE Advanced howls away from the scene)

Obi-Wan: How much are you willing to wager that we'll see him again?

Anakin: (Turns and walks a few paces away from his old master before speaking in fearful tone) Do you think he was telling the truth? That I'll eventually become like...

Obi-Wan: (Comes up next to Anakin) No. You'd never become as he was. I know you'd never raise your sword against any of your fellow Jedi, let alone me. I love you like a brother, Anakin. And brothers do not hurt each other.

???: Perhaps. (They turn to see a young blonde human man approach, donning black robes and carrying a lightsaber hilt similar to Obi-Wan's on his belt. A black glove covers his right hand) But Darth Vader stopped being anyone's brother when he turned to the dark side.

Obi-Wan: Well. Hello, there. And you are?

Anakin: Wait...I sense in you...but, how is that...

(The newcomer steps forward and hugs Anakin, surprising both him and Obi-Wan. After he breaks the hug, he speaks)

???: It's good to finally meet you at your greatest.

(The pair exchange bewildered glances)

???: I understand your confusion. Trust me when I say that you're not the only ones. I'll tell you more along the way. For now, follow me. I have an outpost set up that should keep us under both the Regime and the Empire's notice. (Turns to lead them away)

Anakin: Hold on. Could you at least tell us your name?

Luke: (Turns to look back at them) My name is Luke Skywalker. (Anakin and Obi-Wan look surprised) Yes, that's right. Skywalker. I'm your son, Anakin. (Anakin stands there in shock as Obi-Wan looks at him with a gaping mouth and a cocked eyebrow)

Anakin: My...son?

Nice. Very much like a Neatherrealm story scene.

I'm sure I've written something somewhere where old Obi-Wan meets the two. Let me try to recreate it.

Old Ben: Seems we're all in a spot of trouble. (removes hood) But then again, that is hardly anything new for us.

Obi-Wan: Well that is a development.

Anakin: Obi-Wan?

Old Ben: Yes Anakin... (places his hands on the upper half of his arms) Its good to see you again old friend. And I'm sure this is al a bit strange. We all could use all the familiar faces we can.

Obi-Wan: None more familiar then yours in my case. Though I feel I would've aged a tad more... graciously.

Old Ben: (friendly chuckle) Yes, I'm afraid Obi-Wan we're in for a rough go of things, and such ordeals will affect us, a great deal. But the Force will guide us through them as always.
(the trio turn their heads, sensing danger approaching) We best get on the move.

Thanks! And lemme tell you, with the Star Wars Expanded Universe, there's no shortage of material to work with in the case of a time-merger in the setting of INJRWBY. Here's one scene I imagined where some of the SW characters meet someone from INJRWBY.

Anakin: We sense it too. It's dark like Vader and every other Sith we've met, except...

Obi-Wan: Except whatever's out there doesn't have a soul, not like Vader. Whatever it is, I'd rather not stick around to meet it.

Old Ben: Both of you, follow me. My camp isn't too far from here. (The three Jedi rush away from the scene as a feral howling fills the air)

(Elsewhere, in the Emerald Forest)

Ahsoka Tano: (Sigh) Welp. It's official. We're completely lost.

Padmé Amidala: (Looking at a holomap) Would you stop saying that?

Ahsoka: Well, we are, aren't we?

Padmé: (Turns towards her Togruta companion) Ahsoka, unless you have some idea for helping us get out of here and finding Anakin, Obi-Wan, and the others, then please, don't distract me. I'm trying to work out where we are.

Ahsoka: Maybe you're not reading that thing right.

Padmé: (Pressure finally getting to her) Excuse me? I'm reading it just fine!

Ahsoka: Hang on, Padmé, I didn't mean any--

Padmé: Hey, if you think you can get us out of here, then go ahead and try! What do I know? I mean, (sardonic chuckle) I'm only just some stupid senator, right?

Ahsoka: Padmé, stop it! I'm sorry! I didn't mean anything by it, okay?!

Padmé: Oh, no, you meant something!

Ahsoka: No, I didn't!

Padmé: Sure you did! Go on, use the Force and guide us out of here, gracious Master Jedi!

Ahsoka: Would you knock it off?! I said I was sorry! (Both women's eyes widen as they hear the sound of something rustling and growling in the bushes nearby) You...heard that too, right?

Padmé: Yeah... (They turn towards the source, seeing an inky black wolf-like creature with white plates covering its body emerge from the brush)

Ahsoka: Oh...spast. (Ignites her lightsabers as Padme pulls out an E-5 blaster rifle)

(Ahsoka and Padmé battle the Beowolf and its pack as they rush forward, with Ahsoka slashing them apart, and Padmé blasting them down. After about a minute of combat, all the wolves are down and slowly disintegrating)

Padmé: What were those things?

Ahsoka: I don't know, but there are probably more of them all around this forest. We need to get out of here be-- (She's interrupted as she's swatted through the trees by a large, black, scorpion-like tail. Padmé, shocked, turns towards the source, only to be knocked back as well. They land next to each other in front of the ruins of a small shrine. Both get to their feet as they see a gaunt-looking man with brown ponytailed hair emerge from the trees, wearing an almost completely white outfit. His most defining feature, however, is the large scorpion's tail that protrudes from his back)

Tyrian Callows: (Devious chuckle) Well, what have we here? A couple of delicate flowers who've lost their way? Oh, what fun...

Ahsoka: You've got a funny idea of fun...

Padmé: (Raises her blaster as Ahsoka readies her lightsabers) Who are you?!

Tyrian: Oh, don't mind me. I'm just a traveler looking for some... (Mad laugh as he gets into a battle stance) ...entertaining company.

(more Grimm show up)
Ahsoka: I'll deal with this, Senator, try to clear a way out for us.

Tyrian: Such an intriguing creature. I wonder what color your blood is? I do hope it's something exotic!

Ahsoka: You'll be disappointed, Stringer.

!FIGHT!

(more Grimm show up)
Padme: Ahsoka, I think there more your crowd.

Tyrian: Hmmm... Your beauty almost rivals my Goddess, that cannot be allowed...

Padme: I'm used to dealing with unreasonable people, I want to shoot. Fortunate your no diplomat.

!FIGHT!

---
Ahsoka: Stringer, clipped.
---
Padme: Surprisingly cathartic.

(The two reunite.)

Ahsoka: Sorry about before Padme. I don't know what came over me.

Padme: It's fine Ahsoka. Clearly we where both at fault. Though I think it's no coincidence those creatures appeared afterwards.

Ahsoka: Agreed. Wherever we are are it's effecting us, making us susceptible to negative emotions. Clearing those black creatures seems to have helped.

(suddenly a massive Nevermore is cries out. Alerting the two to it mid swoop.)

Ahsoka: Oh Sithspit!

(they both brace themselves weapons drawn but before the creature can strike, a purple bladed lightsaber flys out and cuts one of it's wings clear off. Sending the bird to the ground, before sliding to the feet of the duo, and disappearing into smoke. After briefly looking at the felled beast, their eyes are drawn to the lightsaber as it returns, deactivated, to it's wielder, hidden amidst the trees and bushes.)

Padme: Master Windu?

Ahsoka: No. I sense... Someone else. Someone I've never met.

(emerging from the foliage is a man in a brown coat, and light trousers, reminiscent of a Jedi's garb. His hood is up, but not to hide his face. The red and grey mask he wears already fulfilling that role.)

???: I sense the same young Padawan. It appears none of us are where we belong.

Padme: Thank you for your help, but I must ask. Are you a Jedi?

???: In a way. I was a Jedi, but no more. I walk my own path now, though I still hold their teachings in high regard.

Ahsoka: You'll understand if we don't take your word for it. I may be young, but former or not I've never seen any Jedi who wears a mask.

???: Wise of you to be cautious. But we are in the same boat, so I ask mearly for your tolerance. I know from experience it's better to seek allies then enemies when your unsure. Especially lost in woods. As a matter of fact, I met a wise friend that way... Well, a wise and grumpy one.

Padme: I agree. So please, tell us your name.

???: My name is a complex matter. However... (the man pulls back his hood, revealing his mask fits around his head just as the ones Guards who protect the Jedi Temple wear. Sliding it off the same way they would, uncover's the head of a Human with dark brown hair pushed back into a mullet and a slightly unshaven face)

Revan: You can call me Revan.

Searebel98 In reply to avenger09 [2020-03-08 22:22:21 +0000 UTC]

(Sometime later, with Revan by their side, Ahsoka and Padmé have headed away from the scene at shrine. Ahsoka talks with Revan as they walk along through the woods)

Ahsoka: So, let me get this straight. You're Revan? As in the Revan? As in, "fought the Mandalorians, turned to the dark side, got redeemed and helped defeat the Sith Empire he created," Revan?

Revan: (Chuckle) Yes. Though, now I walk my own path. I haven't held the title of Jedi Knight, oh, for decades. Or, centuries, depending on who you ask.

Padmé: But how is that possible? History books say that you died on Yavin 4 -- millennia ago.

Revan: (Slightly surprised) Truly? Hmm. I suppose if that is my fate...

Padmé: The point is, how are you here?

Revan: That, senator, is an excellent question for which I lack a concrete answer. My best guess is that this world somehow serves as a focal point by which the past and the future of our galaxy are colliding.

Ahsoka: Wow. And I thought Mortis was weird...

Padmé: Mortis?

Ahsoka: Don't ask. Please. Don't.

Padmé: So, have you met any of our friends?

Revan: Possibly. I have encountered two other Jedi. They called themselves Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker.

Padmé: (She and Ahsoka stop) Anakin?!

Ahsoka: My master?! And Obi-Wan?!

Revan: (Stops at their reaction) I see you know them. Unfortunately, I don't know where they are now. We were separated by those creatures. Rather rudely too. We were having such a nice conversation. (Suddenly, a stun blast rings out, and a split-second later, he howls in pain as electricity surges through his body)

Ahsoka: (Her and Padmé's eyes widen) REVAN!

???: (As Revan falls to his knees and Ahsoka and Padmé kneel next to him) I must be the rudest little minx in the galaxy then. (The pair look up to see an all too familiar smirking face, with every bit of her hair tied together into a ponytail. An antenna sticks out of her pale and otherwise blad head. She wears an orange sleeveless jumpsuit under a brown leather vest, as well as two pistol holsters at her sides, one of which has its blaster in. The other is in her hand, and a long rifle is strapped to her back. Ahsoka and Padmé both recognize her instantly as their faces turn into scowls)

Ahsoka: (Venomously) Sing...

Aurra Sing: The one and only. I can't believe my luck. The two women I... (her smirk drops) ...loath for landing me in prison... (she gets it back) ...right here away from the eyes of the local authorities. (Sinister chuckle as Ahsoka and Padmé both stand and brandish their weapons while Revan slowly recovers) Ain't that just grand?

Padmé: Still trying to collect on that bounty Ziro posted on me, Sing? He was reported as having died on Teth. You have no money to earn here.

Sing: (Laughs uproariously) Oh, sweetheart, you don't understand. This isn't about money. This here is about good old-fashioned revenge.

Padme: You underestimated me before, look where that got you.

Aurra: Look at the big brave Padawan, come to die.

Ahsoka: We'll see what the Force has in store for us both today.

Padme: Assassin, outclassed.

Ahsoka: Revenge. What a worthless cause.


Revan: Urrg.

Padme: You alright?

Revan: Nothing my pride won't recover from. (looks at the unconscious assassin) Leaving her alive may not be the best idea.

Ahsoka: Perhaps. But I don't see how killing a helpless opponent is a better one.

Revan: I'd hardly call her helpless. She knew when to strike when our vision was most clouded. We may not survive the next ambush.

(unseen by the trio Sing's hand jerks slightly her implants helping her regain consciousness)

Padme: Killing someone in the heat of a fight, I can live with, but your talking about an execution!

Revan: Of a dangerous unrepentant criminal! She's not from my time so it's not my choice to make, but if you consider your choices carefully they may be taken from you.

Aurra: You should to the mask. (all three turn to her now a few feet away) I love taking things away! (She primes a thermal detonator, but before she can arm it, she catches the familiar sound of a rocket beging fired. Jumping a few seconds shy of it impacting on her. Ahsoka and Revan use the force to shield themselves and Padme from the dirt and debris sent out by the blast)

Aurra: (scratched and annoyed she picks herself up) Hrrr!! Who in the hell!

(as if to answer her, a figures appears flying down through the the smoke landing to the ground. The green and red armor, and T visor of a Mandalorian making his identify unmistakable for anyone apart from the displaced individuals before him)

Boba: Always did put personal before business Aurra. It's always been your crutch.

Aurra: (Confused) Jango? ...No. You can't be, Boba? Huh. Guess it's been a long time for you.

Boba: Not long enough. You three get outta here. Me and Sing, have Bounty Hunter business. Guild members only.

Revan: I quite agree. (together they take off as the two hunters square off)

(Later)

Ahsoka: Guess that confirms it. What you said about time being off here. The Boba Fett I knew is still just a teenager.

Revan: Was he Mandalorian?

Ahsoka: Not sure. Master Kenobi said his father might have been one. Part of a clan that didn't conform to the Duchy's rule, and was later wiped out.

Revan: Duchy? They don't have a Mandalore?

Padme: Not for some time. That title invited a lot of challenges, challenges the newer governments weren't willing to risk.

Revan: Hmm... Canderous would be disappointed... Anyway we best get somewhere safe. My ship isn't too far, it won't take take off until it's fixed, but it's defensable.

Padme: Suppose that's the best choice. Anyone else already there we should be aware of?

Revan: Well...

(Smash cut)

HK-47: Observation: Master, there are two unknown meatbags approaching from behind you! Recommend I apply a electrical dart directly to their ineffective aortic pumps, to be safe of course.

Ahsoka: (whisper to Padme) He sounds fun.

Revan: Stand down HK. There no threat, and will be joining us on the Hawk.

HK-47: Resigned Statement: Sigh* I was afraid of that. Recollection: Master. Need I remind you that the last female meatbags you let travel with us where a Cathar, who at one point drew her saber on you, and Human who was not only
complicit in a conspiracy against you, but who also, drew a saber on you?

Revan: I remember HK. I also remember that I fell in love with that Human.

HK-47: Interjection: Please Master, do not remind me! The thought of you two pressing your... Mmmucus covered lips together in the cargo hold, haunts my circuitry to this day!

Revan: Then kindly cease your suspicions and escort us inside.

HK-47: Resignation: Very well. But do not say I did not warn you.

Padme: (As there going inside the Ebon Hawk) Here I thought Threepio was overprotective.

(cut to a Imperial ship high above the Ocean. As It's commander gazes out at on the bridge, his red eyes, blue skin and white uniform reflects off the glass. Before a subordinate approachs)

imperial Officer: Grand Admiral. Lord Vader has returned and is requesting your presence in the war room.

Thrawn: Good. There is much for us to discuss, about the opportunity's this world offers.

That's all I have so far. But I think I'd like to include these versions of Legends characters www.artstation.com/artwork/v1o…
As well as the possibility of future timeliness colliding, due to it being in flux. Mainly as an excuse to see Kylo Ren vs Darth Krayt

Sounds good to me. In that case, alternate timelines such as Starkiller becoming Vader 2.0. and the Infinities stories are something that could fit in.
---
(Thrawn and Captain Gilad Pellaeon enter the Chimaera's war room, where several Imperial Officers sit around the table. Vader stands at the far end and a hologram of Palpatine's head flickers from the center of the table)

Thrawn: Forgive the lack of my usual punctuality, gentlemen. I have been rather occupied as of late.

Palpatine: Grand Admiral Thrawn. So good of you to join us.

Thrawn: I would be remiss not to attend a meeting so important that you and Lord Vader would oversee it yourselves, your majesty. (He sits as Vader and Pellaeon stand next to him)

Palpatine: Indeed. Tell us what you have found out about this "Remnant," Grand Admiral.

Thrawn: With pleasure. While Lord Vader carried out his investigation, my intelligence operatives successfully managed to infiltrate the planet's civilization. (Leans back in his seat and puts his fingers together) The reports they sent back are...intriguing to say the least.

Imperial Officer 1: Don't keep us in suspense, Grand Admiral.

Imperial Officer 2: Oh, please. What does it matter? What could this planet possibly have to offer? By galactic standards, it's hardly worth the Empire's time.

Thrawn: To the ignorant and untrained eye, it may seem so. However, the opportunities this planet offers is more than what is shown at surface value. Captain Pellaeon, if you would be so kind?

Pellaeon: (Speaks into his comlink) Bring in the subjects. (At that, three stormtroopers enter, with one wheeling in a cart carrying several crystals of various colors, and the other two bringing a female White Fang soldier in by the arms as she futilely struggles against them. Her deer antlers are the first feature the officers pick up on)

White Fang Prisoner: Let me go! You inbred, disgusting humans! I'll kill you! All of you! And I'll present your heads to Adam Taurus as trophies!

Stormtrooper 1: Shut up! (They throw her to the ground) You're lucky we didn't decide to just kill you!

Imperial Officer 1: What is that...thing?

Imperial Officer 3: It looks human, yet...those antlers on its head...

Stormtrooper 2: She tried to stab one of our men with them. Almost tempted us to cut them off.

Imperial Officer 2: (As Thrawn stands and treks over to the prisoner) A barbarian. Hmph. It deserves to die.

Thrawn: (After looking at the prisoner for a few seconds) If that is what you believe, General, then I shall indulge you. (He turns to one of the stormtroopers) Trooper? Shoot this prisoner. (The trooper levels his E-11 at the prisoner, aiming directly at her head. When he fires, the prisoner flops onto her back with a pained grunt...before slowly lifting herself up. The officers murmur in disbelief at the sight)

White Fang Prisoner: (Spits defiantly) It's going to take a lot more than your fancy laser guns to break my Aura, human scum!

Thrawn: Indeed. (He kneels down to her level) Your Aura, as you call it. From what my agents tell me, it is the manifestation of one's soul, is it not? A sort of barrier that protects the bearer so long as it is unbroken. That shot would have killed anyone else, gentlemen, but these "Remnantians," as I've come to call them, are special. (He caresses the underside of her chin) Aren't you, my dear?

White Fang Prisoner: (Brushes Thrawn's hand away) Get your hands off of me, whatever you are!

Thrawn: (Stands and walks away from the prisoner) Take her away. Prepare her for loyalty programming. (The troops pick her up and haul her away as Thrawn turns back to the other individuals in the room) In addition to their so-called "Aura," the planet's environment has forced them to adapt accordingly. Various creatures of great size and ferocity infest the world and a select group of elite warriors protects the local populace from them. These warriors are called "Huntsmen" and "Huntresses," and they use specially designed weapons to combat these creatures, which are usually designed and built by their own hands. What's more, the planet is ruled over by a one-world government, which the locals refer to simply as "the Regime," which itself is opposed by a resistance movement known as "the Insurgency." A select number of each faction are not Remnantian at all, but rather human or near-human individuals who possess great powers of their own. I know not of their origins, but their abilities are of great note. I've created files on those my men have learned of. I encourage you all to study them.

Vader: The Remnantians have their own powers as well, as I understand. "Semblances," as they're called.

Thrawn: Ah, yes. I nearly forgot. Thank you, milord. (He strolls over to the cart) There is also the matter of these crystals. The locals call them "Dust," for whatever reason. They mine them to an absurd degree, but for good reason. (Picks up a red crystal) Remnant's entire society is based around these crystals. They serve a variety of roles, most particularly as power sources -- from the weapons their Huntsmen and Huntresses use to their airborne vehicles, Dust, somehow, in some way, is what makes it function. In addition... (he sets the crystal down and activates a holorecording showing stormtroopers blasting dust crystals from downrange, causing them to react in unique ways) ...they seem to draw upon the elements themselves. Fire, water, electricity, ice, even gravity. There is a variant for each, and more. If the Remnatians can do all this with their meager resources, imagine what the Empire could accomplish with Dust in its possession. (Everyone looks at the Emperor, expecting him to give his judgment)

Palpatine: ...I want it. All of it. I want every trace of power that is to be found in both the people of this world and the crystals which define their livelihoods. I want whoever leads this "Regime" to bend the knee to me. And if they don't, I want them alive just long enough to regret their defiance. Grand Admiral Thrawn, you have my approval. Begin Operation: Eclipse. Remnant now belongs to the Empire.

Thrawn: (Bows) By your will, your Highness.

Vader: There is another matter, my master. I have discovered the source of the disturbance that was sensed before we set foot on the world.

Palpatine: What have you found, Lord Vader?

Vader: During my investigation, I encountered two Jedi on the surface. (The officers murmur in shock as Thrawn cocks an eyebrow) However, these were no ordinary Jedi. One was Obi-Wan Kenobi -- two decades younger. (More shocked murmurs. Even Thrawn looks moderately surprised) The other...was Anakin Skywalker.

Palpatine: ...then what I suspected is true. Time itself has unraveled on this world. Find them. And any others like them. I want to know everything.

(Cut back to the Ebon Hawk's landing site where Ahsoka, Padmé, Revan, and HK are in the middle of repairing the ship. Padmé hands Ahsoka a cup of stimcaf as the former welds together a part of the ship)

Ahsoka: Thanks. (Takes the cup with a smile before drinking from it with a contented sigh) Mmm...so good...

Padmé: I know. All the running around and fighting we've been doing, we haven't had to just sit back, relax, and have a warm drink.

Ahsoka: Yeah, I know. By the way, I can't help but find it a little ironic that you, a pacifistic politician, can handle yourself so well in a fight.

Padmé: Says the padawan barely out of her teens! (They both laugh as Revan approaches, his mask off)

Revan: How go the repairs?

Ahsoka: They're going. We should be done soon.

Revan: Good. The sooner we can take off, the better.

Padmé: Revan, do you mind if I ask you something? (Revan shrugs and nods) One minute, you're friendly and helpful. The next, you're calling for someone's death. Not that we both agreed that Sing should pay for her crimes, but...she was beaten. It's like you're a completely different man. Why?

Revan: Senator, you of all people should know that nothing is black and white. There are many grey areas. As for me... (traces the scars on his face) ...well, let's just say that some scars run deeper than others...

(HK emerges from the cockpit with urgency)

HK: Alert: Master! The ship's sensors are detecting two organic lifeforms approaching from the southwest, accompanied by a large number of mechanical signatures!

Revan: That's the direction of the cockpit! (The four of them head into the cockpit and look out, seeing a white-haired woman wearing a white and blue officer's uniform and carrying a sword at her side, walk along with a black-haired woman wearing a red, blue, and yellow outfit reminiscent of the ancient Greeks or Spartans from Earth, carrying a sword and shield in her hands and a golden lariat on her belt. Behind them are half a platoon's worth of white-colored machines, each carrying a rifle)

Just some more intros I've came up with.

Rey: (Speeds past on her speeder jumping off and landing in front of her opponent) 
Aayla: (stands prepared as two droid drones fly at her cutting them both down with ease)
Your progress has been impressive, for one on her own.  
Rey: (stands up and pulls her blade to her hand) Thanks. If I'm truthful, sometimes I feel I'm resented for that.
Aayla: (enters a guard stance) Their disbelief is their failings not yours. / Resentment is an ugly emotion, best overcome, not dwelt on. 

Thrawn: (walks onto the stage scratching the chin of a Ysalamir draped across his shoulders)
Lando: (twirls a coin between his fingers before flipping and catching it) Figured you big shot officers
would have fancier uniforms. Appellate's, sashes, the works.  
Thrawn: (angles his arm allowing his pet to jump off before drawing his blaster an arm behind his back)
The Emperor deplores such decorations.  
Lando: (pockets his coin and drawn his weapon) So Palaptine's an enemy of freedom, and fashion. 



Han: (Runs down a hall firing at his pursuers, before coming to a halt in the stage)
Lando: (walks forward escorted by cloud city security, Lobot by his side.)
Is L4 keeping you outta trouble?
Han: You bet. (shoots a pursuer offscreen without looking) Likes to give Threepio an earful when he's tapped in to the Falcon.
Lando: (steps forward as Lobot turns and signals the detail who walks off stage with them)
Haha! That's my girl.

Cool. I'll give a few of my own before we get back on the story mode.

Agent Offee: (Looks a vial in her hands containing a purplish liquid at a Rebel soldier contorts and grasps at his throat next to her. She hums in curiosity before nonchalantly putting the vial away)
Luminara: (Kneels in a meditative pose before she opens her eyes and stands) How could you turn your back on all that you are?
Agent Offee: (The soldier collapses behind her, dead, without her so much as giving him a look as she pulls her saber) The cause I have now is a greater one than when I served the Jedi.
Luminara: (Ignites her lightsaber with a flourish) How is creating poison and disease for the Emperor at all a good cause?!

Tyber: (Walks up to an Imperial officer and his two stormtroopers. The officer points at the opponent's position, to which Tyber tosses him a clump of credit chips as he continues walking up to his adversary and the Imperials fall back)
Thrawn: (Steps forward as he studies some battle plans on a handheld holoprojector) As arrogant as you were at the academy, Tyber.
Tyber: (Raises his Rawk chopped special) I've earned that pride, Thrawn.
Thrawn: Puts away the plans and raises his blaster) By becoming the leader of a band of petty criminals?

Asajj Ventress: (Pulls her sabers from her back, connects them, and spins them around her body before holding them in place behind her shoulder)
Jango: (Lands, bending his knees from the impact, then draws his pistols and spins them before holding them guns akimbo) I remember those lightsabers...
Ventress: (Disconnects them and points both at her foe) You've seen my weapons before?!
Jango: (Points both barrels forward) Claimed the price on the crazy witch holding them, too.

Revan: They don't appear to be here about our parking. (speaks into a communicator) T3, any of our defenses working?

T3-M4: (plugged  into the ships computer with large cables) Beep whoo weep.

Revan: Yes, I know your still busy helping to process the data I sent, but we've got company and they don't look friendly. We might need a unfriendly greeting. Can you give us one?

T3-M4: Doo do wee beep.

Revan: Thank you pal. (turns to the others) I'll head out first all of you get ready in case this goes the why It usually does around me. (Puts up hood and puts on mask) Violently. 

HK-47: Statement: One can only hope Master. 

(Outside the ship. The Regime personal hold position as the gangplank lowers. Revan, walking out) 

Wonder Woman: You there! Are you with the interlopers who dot our skies and has broken time? If so you have much to answer for. 

Revan: If your asking If I'm with the Empire, take a look for yourself. My ship has none of their characteristics and too honest is quite outdated compared to them, but if you want a more concrete answer its no. As for time breaking as it has. I know very little outside of that a victim of it would know.

Winter: The word of masked man is hardly credible. You carry the same weapon of another such man. A dark warrior who attacked my home slaughtered my men. That cannot be a coincidence. 

Revan: That weapons is called a lightsaber. It's the signature weapon of the Jedi and their mortal enemy the Sith, by a chance of fate I have been both in my time, but no longer. As I said I was a victim of this time merger and no ally to the redblade you attacked you. One just trying to fix my vessel to return to my home era. That is all I wish.

(aboard the Hawk) 

Padme: He's quite the speaker isn't he? 

Ahsoka: They don't make you supreme commander of a Republic counter attack without reason. Guess we're seeing one.

HK-47: (Stares speciously at one one the Atlas mechs) 

(back outside)

Wonder Woman: Our instruments tracked a signal which is tapping into our Global network to this position. Do you plead ignorant?

Revan: Not at all. That's my Astromech droid's work. I tried to have my ships computer do it to gather information to gain data on the situation, but it was so much it required my droid as a extra processor. Surly you can understand not wanting to go out into the unknown without knowing anything. 

Wonder Woman: Hmm... Your reasons are sound, yet I must be sure of your honesty (she undoes the lasso at her waist) take hold of this and I will be certain.

Revan: (sensing the lasso's power he backs off slightly) If it's all the same I think my word will have to appease you. I think I'll keep my secrets. 

Wonder Woman: If you do not take the lasso, I will force it on you!

Revan: That would not be wise. 

(while the two argue the specious mech HK was observing, slowly turns it's head towards Winter. Raising his weapon at the unaware Schnee, before... POW! It's shot right in the chassis. All eyes turn to the ramp where HK stand with a smoking rifle)

Wonder Woman: Treachery!  

Revan: HK!

HK-47: Interjecting: Master, look!

(All turn to the downed droid to see that instead of burning wires and twisted metal the droid appears undamaged. then it begins to get up, it's appearance flickering as the holodisguise is uncovered, revealing a skeletal droid with lines of purple and large eyes) 

PROXY: (sounding more embarrassed then distressed) Oh dear.

HK-47: Redundant Observation: An Imperial spy droid. 

(the Regimers begin to advance but before they can get too close, a red single is emitted from the spy. Turning the Atlas mechs red, before they begin opening fire on their former commanders and Ebon Hawk, who all begin to attack the reprogrammed drones as PROXY runs for it in the confusion)

HK-47: (running past Revan) Status: In pursuit! 

(the two droids come to a clearing in the forest that leads to a ancient stone bridge. Proxy attempts to cross but HK launches a missiles into one of the pillars which collapses in front of the Imperial, who now must face the Assassin Droid)

PROXY: Remarkable. How did you detect my presence?

HK-47: Proud Statement: Your admittedly impressive holo-technology may be able to fool the inferior jellylike optics of an organic meatbag. But mine are another story.

PROXY: Huh. I will have to ask my Master to adjust that in my next upgrade. I thank you for pointing out the defect, but I will have to destroy you now. (shifts into the image of Obi-Wan)

PROXY-Wan Kenobi: Your move.

HK-47: Threat: I have killed many Sith, I have killed many Jedi, and you are neither. 

!FIGHT!

___
HK-47: Rhetorical Statement: You should not have endangered my Master.
___

(standing over the now offline PROXY HK begins to walk back)

HK-47: Contemplation: It is odd that spy droid was so heavily modified. I can not imagine the sterile and uniformed dregs of the Empire, making such upgrades, standard issue in their droids.

(suddenly a black Starship flies overhead, coming about it hovers over where PROXY lays.)

HK-47: Correction: Ah. Because it is not standard issue. 

(A masked figure already on the gangplank, jumping besides the droid before using the force to throw him on board. His black armor similar to an Inquisitor complete with a exotic helmet. Yet he was something else a covert agent of the Emperor. One of his Hands. Turning to face the rusty red droid, he ignites his saber, holding it sideways with the bladed pointed to his right. Anger in his filtered voice)

Agent Marek/Starkiller: You will regret that droid.

HK-47: Definition: 'Regret' is such a Meatbag concept. One I've never quite understood.

!Fight!

In this, Starkiller is an Agent, like agent Narre was in Freemakers.

HK: Taunt: I believe "regret" is the feeling that you have at this moment.

Agent Marek: (On a single knee as he catches his breath. He looks up at HK) Impossible. My powers...something is wrong with the Force here.

HK: Chastisement: Only an inferior warrior blames their defeats on something other than themselves. (Aims his rifle at Marek's head. Before he can fire, however, a blast of wind sends him into a tree. Marek stands and turns to the source, only to pause before falling to his knee respectfully)

Agent Jade: You disappoint me, Galen.

Agent Marek: Forgive me, milady. I was reckless.

Agent Jade: It is of little concern. This is but one skirmish out of many in preparation for our invasion. Gather your droid. We leave immediately. Leave the hacked drones to deal with this lot.

(Marek stands, reaches out with the Force to grab PROXY, and follows Jade as the Rogue Shadow sets down over the destroyed bridge. HK stands up, his systems recovered, and fires at the ship as it departs, but is unable to stop it)

HK: Expletive: Dammit! The one time I don't have an anti-air missile! (Turns back towards the site of the battle with the hacked knights as an explosion catches his attention. A plume of smoke erupts from the area) Realization: I have left master and the ship unguarded! (Runs full sprint towards the landing site)

(At the site, Revan, Ahsoka, and Padmé defend the Ebon Hawk by its gangplank as Winter and Wonder Woman try to hold back the flow of knights attacking them. Eventually, Wonder Woman takes a lucky hit in her shoulder, making her yell out in pain as she falls to her back. Winter quickly picks up her shield and blocks the strikes herself)

Winter: Diana! Are you alright?!

Wonder Woman: We have to retreat and warn Kal and Ironwood! (Winter nods at that, and still blocking the fire with the shield, picks up by her arm and helps her as they retreat into the brush, leaving the knights with one target: the Hawk and its crew)

Ahsoka: Blast it! There's too many of these things!

Revan: (Speaks into his comlink) T3, tell me the ship's ready to take off!

T3: (Distressed beeps)

Revan: Keep trying!

Padmé: We don't have time for him to keep trying! (Suddenly, a shot hits its mark on her leg, making her cry out as she falls)

Ahsoka: PADMÈ!! (She pulls her up by the arm as Revan keeps them covered) Are you okay?!

Padmé: It's just my leg...I'll be fine.

Revan: Not for long unless we get some help here!

(As if to answer Revan's statement, a blue bolt strikes the head of one of the knights, blowing its head clean off. The three turn to see a white armored soldier standing in the brush, with a kama around his legs, a rangefinder on his helmet, blue markings on much of his armor, and two pistols in his hands. He continues firing as more troops like him file out behind him, firing their blaster rifles at the knights. The knights turn their attention towards the troops, only for them to prove ineffective against the clearly more experienced organic troops)

Revan: (Confused) Mandalorians?

Ahsoka: (Her face and Padmé's light up) Better! Clone troopers!

(An LAAT gunship comes up over the treeline, dropping additional clones, who fire at the knights as they rappel down. In addition, a grey and black-robed blonde woman leaps down, her blue lightsaber ignited as she falls towards the fray, carving through the knights in a flurry of movements. Between the clones, the female Jedi, and HK, who has emerged from the woods and joined the battle, the knights are soon overwhelmed and destroyed down to their last)

Clone Trooper: That's the last of them, sir!

Captain Rex: Good work, men! Secure the perimeter!

Ahsoka: (Helps Padmé limp toward him) Rex! (Rex turns to look at them) Boy, are you a sight for sore eyes!

Rex: (Takes off his helmet with a laugh) Commander Tano! Figured I'd find you in the middle of a firefight!

Jesse: (Runs over to help Ahsoka with Padmé) Senator Amidala! You're injured!

Padmé: Don't worry, soldier. I'm fine. I just need a little time in a medbay and I'll be good as new.

Rex: (Turns and looks at Revan and HK approaching) I...see you've made some new friends.

Ahsoka: (Chuckles) You could call them that. Revan, HK, Captain Rex. Rex, Revan and HK-47.

HK: Gratitude: We appreciate your assistance, cloned meatbag!

Rex: (Cocks an eyebrow) Eh...you're welcome...orange...clanker?

Revan: (Shakes his head with a sigh) You'll get used to him.

Female Jedi: I'm sure. (Revan turns toward her, freezing in place upon seeing her) You on the other hand...I'd recognize that mask anywhere.

Revan: (Shakily removes his mask) ...Meetra...?

Meetra Surik: It's good to see you again, old friend.

Revan: (Revan drops his mask and numbly stumbles forward towards her, before finally gripping her shoulder and bringing her in for a hug) I...I never thought I'd see you alive again...

Meetra: (Chuckles) You've been through quite a lot, haven't you, Revan?

Rex: Er...General Surik?

Padmé: I see we're not the only ones who've made new friends.

Rex: We found her defending a village from an attack by these black creatures. Helped her out. She claimed she was a Jedi General, and she certainly looked the part, so we gave her a lift.

Meetra: (Breaks the hug with her old friend) Forgive me, Captain. I was not completely honest with you before. I am a Jedi General. But not from your era.

Ahsoka: Who are you?

Meetra: My name is Meetra Surik. But history likely knows me better as "the Exile." (Ahsoka's eyes widen at that) Ah, read up on your history, have you, padawan? Well, I'll be happy to fill in the gaps for you on the way. But first things first. Captain, help my friend finish the repairs on his ship, then make ready to leave.

Rex: Yes, sir! YOU HEARD HER, BOYS! MOVE IT!

Padmé: Where are you taking us?

Meetra: To a safe haven. Tell me, what do you all know of a place called "Menagerie?"

*Menagerie*

(a greenish brown Trandoshan in a yellow jumpsuit with white markings takes a moment to stand and soak up the sun his long tongue briefly flicking out as he growls in approval) 

Bossk: Ahhh... This place isn't so bad.  

Emerald: (disgusted noise) If he's going to be like this the whole time, I'm leaving.

IG-88: No one will leave until the contract is fulfilled on target: Batman. And target: Ghira Belladonna. 

Mercury: Besides, how would you leave. We're an hour away from the city, which why exactly? 

Bossk: Hrrr... If we go by air we'll be labeled as trouble the second they spot us, and the target will escape. The Scorekeeper doesn't reward those who act foolishly. This way, there's a chance they won't know we're coming.

*Bat Hideout*

Batman: Assassins are coming. I don't know when or how, but it will happen. So long as your father continues to oppose the Regime. These new arrivals just odds a whole other level of unknowns.  

Blake: Isn't your friend here all about seeing the future or something? Can't he check to be sure. 

Dr Fate: The Lords of Order have hidden that knowledge from me as has Nabu. Times fragmentation has brought unwanted chaos into the realms, only my magics remain unchanged.

Han Solo: Whatever the hell that means. Look guys, I'm already kinda tied up in one revolution, so this whole, half animal people, guys who dress up in bat suits and mystic not-gods, is going a bit over my head. Just tell me if there's anything that needs smuggled or blasted, and I'm your man. Otherwise I'll pass on these little meetings. 

(he walks off, causing Blake to glare daggers at the back of his head)

Batman: This is a lot to take in Blake. You can't expect everyone here to keep up.

Blake: He doesn't need to keep up, he needs to care. This is my family we're talking about, my world. 

Dr Fate: But not his. His world is a starship and a map to guide him. His family, a noble beast, a young Knight and a Princess without a Kingdom. None of whom are here, young Belladonna.

Batman: That besides, Blake, he just recently joined up with us. We can't expect him to dedicate to our cause, nor can we force him to. That's Clark's method, not ours.

Blake: (Sigh) Right. I'm sorry.

Batman: Don't apologize. Just understand that not everyone in our ranks has the same motives.

Dr. Fate: Regardless of this matter, we still face the coming of fate. We must be ready.

Blake: How? Regardless of where the next attack comes from, either from the Regime or any one of the factions like Captain Solo's Rebellion, the possibility exists that they could have interstellars among their ranks.

Batman: Which is why we need intelligence operatives with a familiarity with their galaxy.

Blake: But who do we have that can fit that role? Solo doesn't care, and the troops he has with him are soldiers, not spies.

Ghira: (Appearing in the doorway) I may have a solution. My warriors have met a couple of new friends on their patrols. (Behind him, a brown-haired human male wearing a red jacket over a copper shirt, brown jeans, brown gloves, and black boots steps in, followed by a blonde human woman with black robes and armor paddings on her shoulders and shins. The man has a pair of pistols in twin holsters on his belt, as well as cybernetic implants around his left eye, while the woman has a lightsaber on her belt, and vibrant, almost unnatural yellow eyes)

Batman: And they are?

Theron: Theron Shan. Republic Strategic Information Service. Used to be, anyway.

Lana: And I'm Lana Beniko, once the head of Sith Intelligence.

Blake: Sith?! (She pulls her weapon) Dad, are you crazy?! Haven't you read the report Solo's men made?

Ghira: Relax, my child. Sun and Ilia already vetted them.

Lana: I may be Sith, but I don't serve my own self-interest. I understand your trepidation, but I assure you, I am a friend.

Theron: I'll vouch for her. She's one of the good guys. (Blake slowly puts away her weapon)

Batman: Then can we count on you two to run intel ops in the area?

Lana: Give us an assignment, Mister Wayne. We'll see to it that it's done.

Batman: Alright then. (Turns to a console and brings up a file) I'll give you something simple. Superman has been sending assassins to Menagerie frequently in an effort to silence both me and Ghira. We've been able to keep one step ahead with every attempt, but the possibility exists that Superman may have turned to these newcomers ever since the time merge.

Theron: And you need us to balance it out. Provide security and the like. Sounds reasonable.

Blake: We're placing a lot of faith in you two. If my father dies, Menagerie will lose its fighting spirit. If Batman dies, the Insurgency will die with him.

Lana: Where should we start?

Batman: I have a few ideas. I'll send my recommendations to your datapads. In the meantime -- (A Rebel soldier suddenly appears in the doorway)

Rebel: SIR! We've got a problem! Our long-range sensors picked up a large amount of those Grimm things approaching Kuo Kuana from the ocean! They're set to hit us any minute!

Ghira: What?! That's impossible! Grimm only follow negative emotions!

Blake: Or the command of their queen...

Batman: Theron, Lana, change of plans! Get out there and help get things under control!

Theron: What about you?

Blake: We'll hold things down here in case they make it that far! Just go!

(Theron and Lana exchange glances and nod before rushing outside. Meanwhile, the hunters observe as flying and swimming Grimm begin attacking Kuo Kuana)

Bossk: (Angered growl) Thessse creaturesss will ssspoil the hunt!

Mercury: (Smirks) On the contrary... (he points at several Rebel soldiers and Faunus guardsmen running out of the Chieftain's house to repel the attack) ...we've got the mother of all openings now.

Emerald: Bossk, IG. We'll go for the Belladonnas and Batman. Keep their people distracted out here. (Bossk and IG-88 exchange glances, with the assassin droid cocking his guns, and Bossk giving a hissing chuckle)

(Down below, Lana and Theron are fighting the attacking Grimm, cutting through several with her lightsaber and his blasters. Theron shoots a Griffon out of the air with a well-placed shot)

Theron: (As it crashes down and disintegrates behind him) That makes thirty! Better step up your game, Lana!

Lana: (Rolls her eyes before casually throwing her lightsaber, cutting up five Teryxes, three Griffons, and a Nevermore before it comes back to her. She smiles at Theron as his cocky smirk drops from his face) You were saying?

Theron: (Scowls in annoyance and crosses his arms) Showoff... (Before Lana can respond, a smoke grenade appears between the two. They have just enough time to look down before it goes off, obscuring their vision and causing them to cough. Lana manages to clear her eyes and steady herself long enough to sense the direction the danger is coming from, stepping in front of Theron and blocking a pair of blaster bolts with her saber. Theron clears his eyes, and follows Lana's gaze to see Bossk approaching them)

Bossk: (Hisses) Would've been a painlesss kill, SSSith. You ssshould have let him die right there. Now you'll both sssuffer...

Theron: I'm guessing not a friendly face...

Lana: Speak your purpose, Trandoshan.

Bossk: I have to sssay it? I'm here for the biggessst prize of them all. And you're in my way...

Theron: He's here for Batman and Ghira.

Lana: We'll have to disappoint you, I'm afraid.

Urai: I expect you to consider this a friendly warning, for old times sake. You'll arm will grow back and you weren't captured, your points remain Bossk. As for you 88, you know what Zann can do. Is getting on his bad side worth it. 

IG-88: Recommend retreat. 

Bossk: Growl... Fine.

Theron: You thinking what I'm thinking? Consortium-

Lana: Means criminal, I know. Let's remain cautions, I sense the Force is with him. 

Urai: I'm here on behave of my boss Tyber Zann, he doesn't like the idea of this place interfering with our organisations history. He wants to meet and discuss a way to get it out of the picture. 

Theron: That's all well and good, beaky, but as you can see we're kinda busy right now. If this can wait a few minutes we'll get back to you.

Urai: In my adolescence a thousand years ago, I saw the Sith and Jedi tear the galaxy apart, I witnessed your order fell to it's own power. The other died a slower death, one of complacence. It taught me one thing: That those who feel the force, cannot be trusted.

(The Rebel soldiers head out, reengaging the Grimm. X-wing and Y-wing support arrives soon after, helping to suppress the Grimm as they continue to attack. Lana and Theron lead from the rear, supporting the frontline force with blaster fire and Force abilities. However, as the battle starts turning in their favor, Lana and Theron hear their comms crackle off in their ear)

Blake: La- sssss - ron, do you - sssss - come in! I rep - sssss

Theron: Blake, we're here. Don't worry. Looks like the Grimm are running out of steam.

Blake: It's not the Grimm that are the threat!

Lana: How do you mean?

Blake: There are assassins here! In the Chieftain's residence! (Theron and Lana's eyes widen as they share glances) They're tearing through our men here! We need help! NOW! (The sound of a shotgun blast fills the comm) AAAGH!

Theron: Blake? BLAKE?! (They take their hands off their comms) Bossk and the droid were just the diversion!

Lana: We need to get back -- now!

(Both head full sprint towards the Belladonna home. Inside, they enter into the sight of a massacre. Rebel troops and Faunus guards lie dead or severely wounded across the floor. Blake, Han, and Dr. Fate lie together, slumped up next to each other with their eyes closed. Theron and Lana head up and kneel next to them)

Lana: Solo? Blake?! Doctor, can you hear us?!

Theron: Dammit, wake up! Lana?!

Lana: They're alive, but in no condition to move. Whatever came through here did a number on them. They're lucky the assassins didn't bother to finish the job.

Blake: (Stirs awake) L-Lana...Theron... (Both spies quickly attend to her)

Theron: Easy. Just relax. You're gonna be fine.

Blake: S-Solo? Kent?

Lana: Both still out of it, but alive.

Blake: U-Upstairs...Batman and dad...stop them... (The floor above them shakes, prompting both to look up and notice dust fall from the rafters as the sound of Batman and Ghira struggling echos from above)

Theron. Not a good sign.

Lana: Hurry! (Both get to their feet and run up the stairs)

(Upstairs, Ghira is facing off with Emerald while Batman fights Mercury. Batman is knocked onto his back by a kick from Mercury, and Emerald's illusions leave Ghira clawing at the air as Emerald slashes at him from every which direction. Eventually, Emerald dropkicks Ghira in the jaw, sending him to the floor next to a recovering Batman)

Mercury: (Sardonic sigh) Y'know, Em, you'd think such high-profile marks would put up a better fight.

Emerald: Age takes its toll, Merc. They probably don't know how to fight little kids playing on their lawn.

Mercury: (Laughs as Batman and Ghira look up at them. Emerald aims her guns for the killing blow) See ya 'round, old-timers.

(Before either of them can do anything, Emerald is sent flying into the ceiling by an unseen force, shocking Mercury and prompting him to turn around. When he does, a small circular disk lands on his chest. A second later, electricity shoots through his body, causing him to scream in pain and forcing him to his knees. Emerald slams into the ground next to him. Both get up to see a none-too-pleased Lana and Theron standing at the doorway)

Lana: You children made a mistake coming here. (Ignites her lightsaber)

Emerald: Dammit! We were this close!

Mercury: Shut it, Em. Let's just kill these idiots and get back to business.

Theron: Little presumptive there, aren't you, kid?

Emerald: Please, these has-beens couldn't beat the two of us. What makes you think you have a chance?

CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER
LANA <--- LS ---> THERON

<--- 

Lana: I'll take the girl.

Theron: Fine by me. (Blasts at Mercury, who dodges the blasts and fires his legs at Theron, engaging in a firefight)

Lana: What's your motive, child? What could you possibly stand to gain?

Emerald: Wouldn't you like to know...

Lana: If you won't tell me nicely...I'll happily wring it out of you instead.

--FIGHT--

--->

Theron: Keep Silver Scalp busy. (Lana charges Mercury, engaging in close-quarters combat as lightsaber and leg guns meet)

Emerald: You're gonna try and take me down? (Laughs) With me, you probably won't know left from right.

Theron: Thing about illusions, kid: beginners should never try to outplay masters.

--FIGHT--
___
Lana: Your illusions are nothing to the Force. (Theron lands next to her. She helps him up)

Theron: Of course you get the easy one... (Both face Mercury)
___
Theron: (Points to himself) Master. (Points to Emerald) Beginner. (Lana flies back and lands next to Theron, rolling backward onto her feet. Theron helps her up) My dance partner's all tuckered out, you?

Lana: Seems mine still has a few dances to spare. (Both face Mercury)

Mercury: (Approaches Lana and Theron) So ya beat Emerald. Whoop-de-frickin'-do. It's not her that you gotta worry about. Em is all about tricks. Me? I'm pure strength.

Theron: Yeah, yeah, you're tough. We get it.

Lana: His legs -- they're prosthetics. I can sense it.

Theron: Noticed that, too; the way his legs move when he walks. One of us should distract him while the other gets around him and gets those things out from under him.

Lana: Sounds like a plan.

Mercury: You two gonna whisper to each other all day? Or are we gonna get this over with?

(Theron steps forward silently volunteering, with Lana stepping back to flank him.)

Theron: Gonna take a wild stab and say your a, professional assassin, but so young... I'm guessing it was a *family* business.

Mercury: Shut... Up...

Theron: Touchy subject? I know a thing or two about that. So I thinking... Father?

Mercury: SHUT UP!

!FIGHT!

Can't think up the Lana interaction right now. But I do know that after this fight I want them all to be saved by Han who came back saying.

Let me take a shot at it. I've got an idea for where it goes from here.
---
<---

(Lana turns to Theron, nods, and steps forward, with Theron activating a cloaking field and disappearing in an electric flash)

Lana: You put out the outward appearance of a rough-and-tumble assassin, unflinching in the face of destruction. But I sense something deeper within you. A pain that you yearn to end.

Mercury: What the hell could you possibly know about me?

Lana: I can tell a lot of things by looking into your mind. Tell me, boy. Do you think you've outgrown your father yet?

Mercury: (Eyes widen before they narrow angrily) I'm gonna strangle you WITH YOUR OWN GUTS!

Lana: Ah...there it is...

--FIGHT--
___
Theron: Works every time. LANA, NOW!

(As Mercury attempts to stand up, Lana uses the Force from behind him to lift him up by his feet)

Mercury: Hey! The hell are you doing?!

Lana: Taking away that which you rely upon the most. (Uses the Force to disconnect Mercury's legs. Mercury flops down onto the floor as Lana pushes them a few feet away from him. He tries to crawl towards them, only for Theron to stomp on his hand. A cracking noise fills the air as Mercury screams in agony. Theron then kicks Mercury in the jaw, rendering him unconscious as Lana comes up next to her friend)
___
Lana: Theron, you have an opening! Now!

(Mercury attempts to stand up as Theron decloaks behind him, tossing a small spherical device at the assassin's feet. It explodes into a shockwave of light around his legs, rendering them unable to move)

Mercury: (Tries to move his legs, only for them not to respond) What the--?! Why aren't my legs moving?!

Theron: (Leans on Mercury's shoulder casually) EMPs are a real pain in the neck, aren't they? (Mercury stares at the spy dumbfoundedly for a moment before trying to punch him, only for Theron to block the punch, konk him on the back of the head with his blaster, and trip him onto his stomach. He kneels down and starts padding around Mercury's legs) Let's see here...ah, there it is! (Disconnects Mercury's legs and pulls them from his pants)

Mercury: Hey! (Theron tosses them forward as Mercury tries to crawl for them, only for a red blade of light to come up in front of him. He looks up to see Lana looking down at him. The Sith holds out her hand and, with a quick flick of her wrist, renders Mercury unconscious as Theron regroups with her)

Lana: Not so impressive without his legs, is he?

Theron: Yeah, well, you pluck a flutterplume's feathers... (They head over to Batman and Ghira as the vigilante tends to his strongest ally) You guys alright?

Batman: Thanks to you.

Ghira: I've had worse beatings. Just give me a minute.

(Unbeknownst to the four of them, Emerald has reawoken and stands up. With Thief's Respite in sickle mode, she charges at Lana and Theron, ready to plunge her blades into them and the Insurgency leaders. Both spies seem to sense the danger -- Lana with the Force and Theron with his natural instincts -- and look back to see Emerald about to strike. Before the young thief can, however, a stun blast hits her, making her cry out before falling to her knees, dropping her weapons, and collapsing face-first onto the floor. The spies, as well as Batman and Ghira, look to the doorway to see Han standing there, his DL-44 pulled out. Blake is helping Dr. Fate head up to the room, his arm around her)

Lana: You couldn't have done that, oh, five minutes ago?

Han: Yeah, well, my conscience takes a bit to kick in. It's happening a lot quicker these days. You can blame Leia.

Batman: Are you all alright?

Blake: Yes, but...the men downstairs...not all of them made it.

Dr. Fate: They fought bravely, even in the face of death. Their sacrifice will not go unremembered.

Lana: What of the Grimm? (Han's comlink goes off)

Rebel: General Solo! Come in, general!

Han: (Pulls up the comlink) Solo here. Go ahead, commander.

Rebel: The attack has been thwarted! The Grimm are in full retreat! Kuo Kuana is safe!

Han: Good on you, soldier. Get medical teams to the wounded and fire crews to handle any damage the city may have taken.

Rebel: Roger that, general!

Han: (Switches off the comlink) Well, I guess that answers that question.

Lana: (Notices Blake closing her eye in contemplation) Why so glum? The battle is over and Batman and Ghira are safe. We won.

Blake: Yes, I know, but...it's strange. Grimm don't retreat. They fight to the death...unless...

(Suddenly, a Seer Grimm breaks through the ceiling, shocking everyone. Han quickly draws his gun and aims at it. Lana forces his hand down)

Lana: No, wait! I sense no intention to attack.

Dr. Fate: Nor do I. It is here to deliver a message...

Batman: A message from who?

(The Seer's head breaks apart, and its body falls to the floor. From its head, a black inky smoke erupts, forming into an apparition of none other than the Dark Queen of Grimm herself...)

Salem: Come now, Dark Knight. Surely the World's Greatest Detective doesn't need me to answer such a simple question.

Blake: It's her...Salem.

Salem: So, victory. I must congratulate you. Your defeat of Mercury and Emerald, as well as the mercenaries who accompanied them, is quite impressive...if futile.

Lana: So you sent the Grimm army. And the assassins.

Salem: Yes. I wished to eliminate a rival faction, or, barring that, learn from their victory. Evidently, this is the case of the latter.

Ghira: Then you did all of this, killed Gods know how many of my people, just to test our strength?!

Salem: Don't take it so personally, Chieftain. I do it all the time, with varying results. You all have passed your particular test, though I suppose having the descendant of Darth Revan and a Sith Lord on your side would give you a slight advantage.

Theron: (Shocked) How could you--?

Salem: There is much I know about your galaxy, little Shan. I have studied it and thousands of other universes from afar for quite some time. Call it a hobby.

Lana: How is that possible?

Salem: I have my methods. And I must say, your timeline, in particular, is quite fascinating, Lady Beniko.

Han: Your timeline?

Salem: Oh, yes. Did you think your timeline is the only one that exists for your galaxy, Captain Solo? Yours has you sire three children with your beloved princess, one of whom dies in war, and another of which becomes a Sith. I've seen other timelines with you as well. Run through by your own child. Killed by the clone of a Sith warrior. Permanently blinded by overexposure to carbonite. Every timeline has its own fate for each and every one of you. Which reminds me. In the same way your individual eras aren't the only ones brought forth into this world, your timeline isn't the only one that exists on the surface of Remnant. A little drop of knowledge for you all to consider, as a reward for your victory.

Blake: (Sardonically) How generous. You called just to tell us this, or is there something else?

Salem: I also deliver an ultimatum. You have defeated only the vanguard of my greater design. What comes next, you will have no chance to defeat. Submit to me, and you will be spared the coming destruction I will eventually bring. But stand in defiance, take up your arms, and attempt to stop me, and you will die. This is not a threat. Merely the truth.

Theron: Blah, blah, blah. Says you and every other madman and tyrant in galactic history, usually right before they die.

Salem: (Smirks) They still don't know, do they?

Blake: Guys...Salem is immortal. She can't die. (Han, Lana, and Theron all look shocked)

Salem: Consolidate your forces if you wish, Batman. But it will make no difference. I will have your servitude or I will have your destruction. The choice...is yours. (The apparition clears as the Seer disintegrates. There a few seconds of poignant silence)

Theron: Well...that brightened up the room.

Ghira: The Regime, Salem, and any hostile interstellar factions. We'll have to contend with them all.

Blake: Bruce, tell me we have a plan here.

Batman: We don't have anywhere near the numbers to oppose all three. We'll need to find more allies.

Lana: (Smiles as she stands next to Theron) Good thing you have us then.

Theron: Yeah, we have experience with putting together alliances. We've met a few new prospects already.

Batman: Then contact them. And get to work finding any other people sympathetic to our cause, from Remnant and your galaxy alike. A war is coming to Remnant. And we can't afford to lose. (Heads out of the room, prompting everybody else to follow)

Blake: (Turns to Han) Captain Solo? (Han looks at her. She smiles) Thank you for saving my father.

Han: (Smiles back and pats her back) Take it easy, kid. (Walks off, leaving Blake to continue smiling as she shakes her head and follows)

(Aboard a Star Destroyer, Marec is making repairs to PROXY within a repair bay, his helmet removed while in this sanctuary)

PROXY: I feel so embarrassed Master, if I cannot even defeat an ancient assassin droid, how will I ever manage to kill you one day?

Agent Marec: It's alright PROXY. I didn't fair much better myself.

PROXY: Ah! So there's still a chance.

Agent Marec: Definitely. Remind me to thank Capt. Eclipse, if not for flying we'd might not have found you so fast.

PROXY: I will. May I say, I much approve of her presence affect on you. You where inconsolable after Vader killed our last pilot, it made it twice as difficult to ambush you.

Agent Marec: Hopefully nothing happens here that'l Vader or the Emperor's fury.

???: Mustn't tempt fate killer.

(Marec turns around to face the voice that had interrupted his private talk with one of his only friends. Spotting the unmistakable tall, white robed shape of Hethrir, his long golden/copper hair making his pale, Firrerreo, skin all the more noticeable. Accustomed to his fellow Hand's gibes especially when he was out of uniform. Marec turns back to PROXY, to continue his work)

Agent Marec: What do you want Hethrir?

Hethrir: I great many things, but on this particular whim. To see what Vader's pet is up too. I didn't realize you where so sentimental, It's no wonder. For all your 'strength', Vader can still keep you in line. Perhaps I should tell the Stormtroopers, allow you to take yiu for a walk.

Agent Marec: (frustrated he throws his archwrench to the floor and stomps up to the unmoved Hethrir. His eyes focused on his.) Hrr! Why do you insist on mocking me, Firrerreo? Narre, Jerec and the others never have to put up with your needing as much as I do!

Hethrir: (calmly) Because you are a failed experiment. An attempt by our Lords to see how far the limits of Force powers could be pushed, only to prove what already was clear. That raw power without discipline or understanding to temper it is useless, beyond being a weapon.

Agent Marec: Then why was I made a Hand?

Hethrir: To keep an eye on you, and to see who would perform better. You, Vader's project, or Jade, the Emperor's. I suppose they imagined one of you might have had potential in the Rule of Two, when the time comes for them to face each other.

(Angered, Marec turns back to the workbench where his helmet lays picking it up and putting it back on, as Hethrir continues)

Hethrir: Not that it matters anymore. Since Skywalker appeared he's become their favorite candidate... Making you twice now useless. Though I suppose whomever brought him to them, would earn themselves quite a substantial place in whatever new order emerged. But none have been successful yet. Ah well.

(with that Hethrir leaves a satisfied grin on his face, already aware of Marec's next words wil be)

PROXY: Master?

Agent Marec: Contact the Captain. We're going after Skywalker...

(Down below on the planet, Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Ben have outpaced the danger that was following them. Ben leads them towards a cave carved into the side of a mountain)

Obi-Wan: Quite a day, wouldn't you say, Anakin? First, we meet one of the most famous figures in Jedi history, then your future self, then your son, now my future self. Wonders never cease.

Anakin: I still can't get over that.

Ben: Which part, my old friend? Revan, Vader, your son, or me?

Anakin: All of them, actually. Speaking of my son, I hope Luke is okay.

Obi-Wan: Don't worry. Given what he's told us about his time, I'm sure he's handled worse than that Hazel fellow. And besides, he is your son. (Anakin smiles at his former master as they continue walking, before looking back ahead) Though I wonder how Padmé will respond to the news.

Anakin: (Stops in his tracks and sputters) WH--wh--I--I have--you don't--

Obi-Wan: Oh, come now, Anakin. It's obvious. Even if I didn't notice the longing looks you two like to give each other or the nights you'd spend running "security" at her apartment, I could see a hair of Padmé's nature in that boy.

Anakin: (Sighs in defeat as he carries on) Don't tell anybody else. Please.

Obi-Wan: (Follows with his signature smirk) I wouldn't dream of it.

Ben: Come along, now. My camp is just in here. I have a few friends I'd like you to meet.

(The Jedi step into the cavern. At the far end, a roaring fire illuminates a circle of figures sitting in a circle on cut logs. One of them is a young human boy, no older than sixteen, wearing simple clothes and holding an ornate cane. Next to him is an older human man with a full beard, clothing equally as simple as the boy's, and a lightsaber hanging off of his belt. The last two are a human woman with flowing red-gold hair, a black armless bodysuit, a pair of goggles around her neck, and a lightsaber on her belt, and a small green alien with Jedi robes, holding a simple wooden cane. Anakin and Obi-Wan immediately recognize the alien)

Obi-Wan: Master Yoda! Thank the Force.

Yoda: (Looks to see the trio approach) Master Kenobi, young Skywalker. A relief it is, to see you both alive.

Anakin: Likewise, master. Let me tell you, it's been a long day.

Man: Get in line, friend. We've all had more fun on this rock than any of us would really like.

Obi-Wan: (Chuckles) I can imagine. Made friends, have you, master?

Yoda: (Chuckles himself) Say that, you could. (Turns to the others around the fire as Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Ben sit down) Introduce yourselves, you should.

Kyle: The name's Kyle Katarn. I'm a Jedi like you all. But if you don't recognize me, I don't blame you. By the time I was a Jedi, both of you were dead.

Mara: I'm Mara Jade, Kyle's old student -- and formerly a Hand of the Emperor.

Anakin: Hand of the Emperor?

Mara: Ever encountered a faction calling themselves the Galactic Empire? (Anakin and Obi-Wan nod) The Hands are the Empire's special Force-sensitive operatives, who directly serve the Emperor himself. After his death and the Empire's fragmentation, I became a smuggler. Then a Jedi learner under Kyle in Luke Skywalker's New Jedi Order.

Kyle: Forgetting something?

Mara: (Chuckles) And...Luke's wife...

Anakin: (Eyes widen) Oh...uh...this is... (scratches the back of his head) kind of awkward.

Mara: Considering you're my father-in-law from decades in the past? (Laughs) Yes, I suppose so.

Obi-Wan: (Turns to the boy) And you are?

Oscar: Oscar Pine. Just a kid working on my aunt's farmstead. At least I was, right up until I got some kooky old wizard stuck in my head. (He glows a vibrant green briefly before speaking again, now with a very refined tone) How exceedingly humorous, Oscar. A wonder why you didn't decide to drop farming and become a comedian. (Anakin and Obi-Wan both raise an eyebrow) Pardon me. Oscar and I share one mind and can switch control of his body at will. My name is Professor Ozpin, once the headmaster of Beacon Academy, which, sadly, is now under Regime control.

Anakin: Again with this Regime. What are they? Who are they?

Oscar: (Ozpin) The ones who rule this planet and its people. Authoritarians from another world, forced from that one and come to this one as a refuge. Their leader, Superman, who calls himself the "High Councilor," of the Regime, had his forces take control and establish a worldwide dictatorship. He's lured many of my old friends and students to his cause with his false song of order and justice and killed many others. He's a tyrant, claiming to be the people's protector while simultaneously oppressing and terrorizing those same people. He's a grave threat. One I must stop. (Body flashes. Oscar speaks) Thing is, we can't do it on our own, and we've been trying to gather whatever friends we have left who haven't died or sworn loyalty to Superman.

Yoda: As Jedi, our duty it is, to protect the oppressed people of this world from the Regime and its enforcers.

Mara: We also have to find a way back to our own times. I'm sure you've noticed how not all of us are from the same time period.

Obi-Wan: (Looks at his older self) Quite right. If we're going to do that, we'll probably have to find out how this merger happened in the first place and why it brought us here of all places.

(A gravelly voice fills the cave)

???: Sounds like a good chat to have a drink over.

(The group turns to toward the cave entrance to see a middle-aged man standing at the cave entrance, with graying black, spiky hair, dull red eyes and slight stubble along his jawline. Along with a red, tattered cloak, he wears a gray dress shirt with a long tail, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. He also has wears a ring on his right index finger, two other rings on his right ring finger and a necklace with a crooked cross-shaped pendant. He takes a drink from a flask before looking at the group with a smile)

Qrow: Hey, Oz. Been a while, I bet.

Oscar: (Body flashes. Ozpin speaks) Qrow?! (Scowls) ...no. No, I refuse to fall for this trick. Qrow Branwen is long dead. (He stomps forward to meet Qrow, who gains a concerned expression)

Qrow: Oz? Oz, hold up, it's me! Oz?!

Oscar: (Ozpin) Explain yourself, imposter! Who are you?! Why do you wear my friend's face?!

Ben: Ozpin, hold! I sense no deception.

Yoda: Nor I. Sincere, he is.

Oscar: (Ozpin. Turns back to the group) DON'T TELL ME WHAT'S REAL AND WHAT ISN'T!

Qrow: Oz, cool down, will ya!

Oscar: (Ozpin. Turns back to Qrow) I don't know who you think you are, but anyone who impersonates my deceased friends in front of me...earns nothing less but the absolute worst I can give them!

--FIGHT--
__________
On a separate note, I figure if the merge brings Star Wars characters from different eras together, the same can apply to RWBY characters, with the Qrow of the present being one of the Regime's victims. Also, the Mara Jade here isn't the same as Agent Jade with the Imperial forces. Alternate timelines and all that.

I get it.
The Revan I introduced is from a timeline where he managed to convince Scourge to trust them, so he sacrificed himself holding off Vitiate when he proved too powerful to take on alone. Escaping from Dromund Kass with Meetra, but getting separated from her. He's also dressed like this.
(Though it's from something else I came up with I thought it'd look good in this.) 
www.artstation.com/artwork/zAe…

Basically how KOTOR 3 would begin.

Also FYI, the reason Proxy targeted Winter in my head was because they realized that without his most loyal Lieutenant, Ironwood would derail himself with paranoia.  

===

Don't really have anything to continue this just now but I'll think of something. In the mean time some scene ideas.

*Qrow spying on some Imperial Darksiders about to enter a temple or base and swooping in to get a better look. Only for one of them who held back to force push him mid-flight. Sending him back into human form in a explosion of feathers, having sensed the magic on him.  

*Penny vs Guri. It just fits. 
(I wrote something to give my own explanation for why androids are so unique in the galaxy)
avenger09.tumblr.com/post/1897… 

*Boba meeting with Bossk (whose biting off the molt around his regrown arm) and 88 explaining his encounter with Sing. Who he left tied up for the Grimm, as he'd outgrown her. 

*Kylo Ren showing up and after killing some Rebels is reluctant to kill the young Han. Partly out of self preservation but mostly guilt. 

*Kyle telling his role in finding the Death Star plans. He uncovered data suggesting the Imps where diverting a lot of resources somewhere while infiltrating the Arc Hammer, during the Dark Trooper ordeal. Which he gave to the Rebels which led them to send Cassian out, leading to the events of Rogue One. 

*One of team RWBY being stuck in an Alien Isolation scenario with Darth Vader. (Which would be a great game idea)

*Rey joining up with a young Luke to fight the Regime, which she's lightly fangirling about to do. 

*Revan having an exchange with Black Adam before a fight along the lines of. 
"Good and evil are not constants. They are defined by those with power!"
"I once thought the same, but I now know was just excusing my own evil."
After Battle
"There may be Grey areas, but Good and Evil still exist."

I was thinking of Oz coming to see that Qrow truly is who he claims he is after their battle, realizing that, between his holding back and his fighting style, the defeated man before him is indeed his old friend. This calms him down and he makes up with Qrow, but his earlier fury attracts a group of Grimm, leading into the next fight, presumably with one of Salem's minions, like Hazel or Watts, who Oscar battles while the Jedi and Qrow deal with the Grimm.

Great ideas, by the way! I have a few of my own.

*Boba and Jango Fett meeting, with the normally stoic Boba reduced to tears at seeing his father alive again, and Jango expressing pride in the man his son has become.

*Qrow and Raven sharing a "choose your fighter" chapter. It'd be interesting to see the Branwen siblings fighting together for a change.

*Luke and Kylo having an actual fight. Not the copout Last Jedi gave us, but an actual, physical fight.

*Delta Squad (who, gameplay-wise, would work like Injustice 2's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) going up against the Atlesian military, including Winter, Ironwood, and possibly the Ace Ops.

*Tyber Zann and Urai Fen vs Roman Torchwick and Neo (Red Lantern allegiance optional). Again, it just fits.

*Wedge Antillies and Poe Dameron tearing through the skies together and becoming friendly rivals.

*One of the SW characters facing down their greatest fear due to Scarecrow's gas.

*Galen Marek or Mara Jade facing off against their Agent counterparts.

*At least one "Ben" joke with either Kylo, Ben Kenobi, or Ben Skywalker. "Ben!" "Yes?" "Not you, the other Ben!"

*Anakin, after seeing what he becomes in the future, sympathizing with Superman, but still standing firm in his mission to defeat him. Something along the lines of:

Superman: Joker took everything from me! He took my city, my friends, and my family! In my position, would you have done any different?

Anakin: (His look and tone softened) No. I wouldn't. I know because I've seen it. What I'll do just to save the life of the woman I love.

Superman: Then what gives you the right to judge me?

Anakin: (Closes his eyes) I know how you feel. I've seen my future. A future where I try to save the love of my life...only to end up sealing her fate. (Opens his eyes with a determined expression) But I've also seen what I'll do after the fact. Darth Vader is no different from you, Superman. You lost everything you loved, so you decided to make everyone else share your suffering. I know your pain...(raises his saber) but that doesn't justify what you've done.

---After Battle---

Anakin: Maybe you'll be saved one day. Like I will be.

*Also, chapter titles! Keeping in with the NetherRealm Studios feel, I have some ideas for chapter names, including the scenes we've already done.

1. TIME UNDONE
-------------------
Anakin Skywalker

2. FOREST OF DANGER
-------------------
Ahsoka Tano, Padmé Amidala & HK-47

3. THE VANGUARD
-------------------

Those titles sound perfect. Jango reuniting with Boba is a solid idea. I was thinking of also including a disguised, cyborg Montross, out for revenge who escaped the Bando Gora, after being tortured by them, but a lot worse for wear. Forcing him to stay on the down low and preparing for revenge against one of the Fetts. (He tried hunting the Clones but they wheren't Jango enough.)

Though I disagree on the Last Jedi fight as, A: it was awesome seeing Luke pull a fast one on Kylo. And B: That is how a Jedi uses the Force, to defend not attack.
To each their own though.

Maybe have a scene where older Luke gets moved by his younger self. Nothing dramatic just seeing how optimistic and centred he used to be, helps to break him out of his depressed funk quicker.

Mayhaps. And I understand your point about TLJ. I just wished Luke was actually there to face down his old student. But, like you said, to each their own. The Montross idea is cool, though.

But, anyhow...
-----------------
Oscar: (Ozpin, his anger replaced by surprise) That...that fighting style...and the way you held back...

Qrow: (Stands up) I told ya, Oz. It's me. I swear it. This isn't the Remnant I knew, but...it is me.

Oscar: (Oscar, mentally) Ozpin...I think he's telling the truth... (Ozpin) Qrow...

Kyle: (Runs over with his fellow Jedi) Oz, listen. It might not be just our galaxy that's going through this merging. If could be your world, too. Your friends.

Oscar: (Ozpin) Qrow, I'm...I'm sorry. I thought...

Qrow: It's alright, Oz. (Puts Harbinger away with a smile) I've gotten my ass kicked for less. (Looks at the Jedi) So...what's this about time periods smashing together?

Anakin: Well...(scratches the back of his head)

Ben: It's a rather long story. (The same feral howling from before fills the air) But we may have to tell it to you later. (The Jedi ignite their lightsabers and Ozpin and Qrow ready their weapons as several land-based Grimm, supported by a small number of flying ones, emerge from the nearby tree line)

Oscar: (Ozpin) I've been a fool. I led them right to us! (The Grimm charge the group)

Obi-Wan: Stick together! (The group engages the attacking Grimm, with the Jedi and Qrow slashing through them as Ozpin bats them down with his cane. There are individual shots of each member of the group combating the monsters. About two minutes in, Ozpin stabs an Ursa through the head with his cane, killing it. As he stands ready to engage another one, an enraged voice yells out from the trees)

???: OZPIN! I KNOW IT'S YOU!

Oscar: (Ozpin) Oh, no... (Turns to see the burly form of Hazel Rainart emerge from the foliage)

Hazel: Hiding behind another child, professor? Is there no end to your cowardice?!

Oscar: (Oscar, mentally) Let me guess. He hates you. (Ozpin rolls his eyes) Wherever did you get that idea? (Steps forward to meet Hazel) Hazel, please. I don't want to fight you.

Hazel: And I want my sister back. But we can't all get what we want, can we?

Anakin: (Cuts down a Beowolf before noticing Hazel) You! (Hazel turns towards him) Don't you know when to give up?!

Hazel: Not until I've killed him. (Looks at Oscar) I'll go through any number of people to make him pay. (Looks at Anakin) Even that boy of yours.

Anakin: (Looks startled, then angered) What did you do to him?!

Hazel: ...I buried him in a cave in. (Anakin's eyes widen) He should have gotten out of my way. (Anakin's shock turns to fury as he charges forward with an enraged scream. Hazel easily dodges his wild swing and swats the Jedi aside, knocking him into a tree and rendering him unconscious)

Oscar: (Ozpin) SKYWALKER! (Turns to look at Hazel)

Hazel: Like I said, Ozpin. I'll go through anyone I have to in order to get to you.

Oscar: (Ozpin) I'm sorry about Gretchen, Hazel. Her death is one of many that haunt my dreams. But that doesn't give you the excuse to hurt innocent people!

Oscar: (Ozpin) Rage... One of her favorite means of control. 

(he runs over to Skywalker whose already being helped by Obi-Wan)

Oscar: You alright? 

Anakin: Fine. We have more Grimm to take care of. After that we're going after Luke.

Obi-Wan: Be mindful Anakin. If your son is as persistent as you he'll be alright.

Anakin: Perhaps but... After seeing how my future goes, I'm not certain that's a good thing anymore. 

(Kyle lands on his feet next to them after getting flung by a Grimm)

Kyle: I get it's a lot to take in, but we could use some help here!

Obi-Wan: Right, of course!

(the three run back into the fray)

----

Maybe next as the fighting get's intense the Clones arrive with Padme and Ahsoka.

(The KOTOR crew back at the Hawk, where there's an air of tension as Meetra is weary of Revan. Thanks to the whole "Used Malachor to break his followers wills" thing, and is adamant about keeping an eye on him as it's when he's isolated he tends to default to pragmatic options. Though he's level headed enough to agree with her, having avoided the 300 years of being a cellmate to Vitiate)

The Clone Wars heroes exchange pleasantry's briefly then get back to fighting, before another big name shows up to fight Oscar/Oz.

(Elsewhere, the Hawk and two LAAT gunships are stopped at a nearby village for maintenance and resupply. Ahsoka and Kix tend to Padmé's leg as Rex and Jesse barter and negotiate with the villagers for food and medical supplies. HK and T3 are doing maintenance on the Hawk. Revan sits alone on a fallen tree. Meetra approaches from behind and sits down next to him)

Revan: I thought you were helping the Clones with the villagers.

Meetra: Rex seems to have it under control. He seems to be getting on with them rather well. You know, for someone who was raised in a test tube. (Both she and Revan share a chuckle. A couple of seconds of silence pass before the Exile speaks) Revan, can we talk?

Revan: (Looks at her) What's there to talk about, old friend?

Meetra: (Looks away for a few seconds before looking back at him) It's about Malachor.

Revan: (Sighs) Meetra, listen, I...

Meetra: I know you don't want to talk about it, Revan. But if not now, when?

Revan: We did what we thought we had to, Meetra. I regret what happened, but what's done is done. No point mulling over it now.

Meetra: It's not just the Mass Shadow Generator or the battle itself that I'm talking about, my old friend. It's what you did after the fact. Breaking your followers with the memory of it. Creating a Sith Empire. Throwing the Order into civil war. Trying to conquer the Republic. (Revan looks away ashamedly) I know you're not that man anymore, but the experience left its mark on you. (Caresses the scars on his face) In more ways than one. (Lowers her arm) I sense the conflict within you, Revan. Light and Dark vie for your mind. I want to trust you, but...I must be cautious. I can't leave you alone for risk of the Darkness taking ahold of you, even if just for a moment.

Revan: (Closes his eyes) You know my mind better than I do, Meetra. (Opens his eyes and looks at her with a smile) I always liked that about you. I understand. I promise I'll stay where you can see me.

Meetra: (Smiles back) That's all I ask. (Looks back at the Clones, some with their helmets off, sitting around the landing site, joking, eating, and sharing stories) These men are so much like the men I had at Malachor. Beetle is like this one Jedi under my command, so lighthearted and pure. Storm is tough on his squad, but he's fair to them, and treats them like his children, even calling them his "sons." I knew one Twi'lek soldier who was much the same. Copper is silent and keeps to himself, but he lives for his brothers, not unlike a certain officer I remember from our naval forces. And Rex...Rex reminds me so much of Bao-Dur. Dedicated to helping others...mild-mannered, but not afraid to speak his mind. (Looks back at Revan) It feels like the old days. (Stands up) I lost so many friends at Malachor, Revan. Including you and Alek. I don't want to lose these men the same way.

(Revan nods silently, understanding the attachment Meetra has made with the Clones. Ahsoka walks up to them)

Ahsoka: Uh, Revan? Master Surik? (Both look at her) Rex just called in, said he and Jesse are bringing the supplies from the villagers. Should be enough to get us to this Menagerie place. Do you really think the people there will help us?

Meetra: They should. From what the locals at Vale told me, the Insurgency based there is far more receptive than the Regime you encountered. And please, Ahsoka, call me Meetra.

(Ahsoka smiles at her. Before she can respond, however, Kix jogs up to them alongside T3, with Padmé limping up behind them with haste)

Kix: General! Commander! Revan's astromech intercepted a comm signal. It looks like we found Generals Skywalker, Yoda, and Kenobi.

Ahsoka: (Beams) That's great, Kix! (Notices their looks) But, why do you guys look so worried?

Padmé: The signal isn't Anakin's, Obi-Wan's, or Yoda's, or anybody with them. We're not the only ones that found them.

Revan: The Regime?

Kix: Worse... (Nods to T3, who beeps in affirmation before his eye lights up, playing back an audio track. A soulless, robotic voice speaks with a gravelly, almost perpetually angered voice)

Robotic Voice: General, this is Commando Unit 12. We have spotted a small group of Jedi in combat with local wildlife. They seem to have a human male child and a middle-aged human male with them. Both are also combatants.

Gravelly Voice: Send me the location! (Ahsoka's eyes widen in horror) I will be there soon!

Robotic Voice: Yes, sir. There is another matter.

Gravelly Voice: What is it?!

Robotic Voice: Three of the Jedi have been designated as Master Yoda, Anakin Skywalker, and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Gravelly Voice: (Sounding eerily pleased with this news) Really, now? (Laughs darkly, before his laugh breaks into a harsh cough) Interesting. Their lightsabers will be the centerpiece of my collection! (Laughs once more as T3 ends the recording. Ahsoka stands there, frozen in abject terror)

Meetra: Who was that?

Revan: Whoever it was, I don't need the Force to know his intentions aren't noble.

Rex: (As he and Jesse approach with crates of goods) Sir? Is everything alright?

Ahsoka: (Looks at him and speaks with uncharacteristic haste) Rex! Get the supplies loaded and get everybody ready to leave!

Rex: Whoa, whoa, calm down, Ahsoka! What's wrong?

Padmé: (Gravely) It's Anakin and Obi-Wan...and General Grievous... (Rex and Jesse share a panicked look. Rex turns towards the rest of the Clones)

Rex: BOYS! BREAK'S OVER! LOAD UP AND GET READY TO MOVE!

Clone Trooper: We finally headed for Menagerie, sir?

Rex: Not yet! We still got one last stop to make on Mistral! Get your blasters ready! We're going to save General Skywalker!
--------------------

(Mara stabs her blade into a downed Beowolf, killing it and causing it to disintegrate under her. She twirls her purple blade before deactivating it and putting it away)

Mara: (Looks back at the others) That's the last of them. You weren't joking, professor. These beasts are relentless.

Oscar: (Ozpin) Such is the prerogative given to them by their queen. (The group forms up by him) Unless told otherwise, they'll fight to the end.

Yoda: No longer safe here, are we. Leave, we must.

Ben: I agree. It's time we moved on. Someone -- or something -- surely spotted, or at the very least heard, the battle from afar.

Anakin: Let's hope not. There was no shortage of Grimm in that fray. I'm not really feeling like another fight like that so soon. (A familiar mechanical marching sound fills the air. Anakin's eyes widen before they narrow in annoyance) Me and my big mouth...

Qrow: The hell is that?

Oscar: (Ozpin) Atlesian Knights, I imagine. (Readies for battle)

Obi-Wan: (Also recognizes the sound as the rest of the group does the same) No. They're worse.

(From the trees, a company's worth of B1 battle droids and B2 super battle droids march forward. The group tries to back away, only for Qrow to stop when he feels a gun barrel press against his back. He, Kyle, and Mara whirl around to see a squad of BX-series commando droids forming up behind them, blocking off their escape. From out behind the droid forces, two figures step forward, one a blue-skinned Duros male wearing a wide-brimmed brown hat, an overcoat of the same color over a brown tunic, dark blue leggings, a pair of black boots with jets attached to them, breather tubes connected to his cheeks, a pair of multipurpose gauntlets on his wrists, and a belt with a pair of holsters, each with a BlasTech LL-30 blaster pistol in them. The other is a cybernetic monstrosity, with white armor plates over black, claw-like limbs, four lightsabers hanging off his waist, and a terror-inducing mask that shows no part of the cyborg's face apart from his beady yellow eyes)

Obi-Wan: ...much worse...

General Grievous: (Laughs) Well, well...today is a good day! (Stalks forward with his Duros companion following him, and the droids holding their perimeter) Not only do I find none other than Obi-Wan Kenobi...but his equally famous apprentice, not to mention the Grand Master of the Jedi Order himself! And three other Jedi to boot! (Laughs once more, before breaking into a cough) At this rate, I'll break my personal record for the number of Jedi killed in one day!

Kyle: Friend of yours?

Anakin: More like an ex-girlfriend; doesn't know when to quit.

Grievous: (Turns to the droids) KEEP AWAY! I will deal with these Jedi myself! (Breaks up his arms and ignites his four lightsabers)

Cad Bane: What about those two? (Nods towards Oscar and Qrow)

Grievous: Make sure they don't interfere. There's no sport in them.

Cad Bane: (Nods with a smirk as he steps towards Oscar and Qrow) So long as you're paying.

Qrow: Don't know what payment you're getting out of this, Blue Boy, but payday ain't today. (Pulls out Harbinger and charges)

(Bane's grin widens as he dodges Qrow's strikes and shotgun blasts before blasting at him with his flamethrower, setting the Huntsman's clothes ablaze. Qrow yelps at the heat, frantically putting himself out just in time for Bane to kick him onto his back. As he attempts to stand, Bane stomps on his chest, before drawing one of his blasters and aiming it squarely at Qrow's head. Before he can fire, however, Ozpin strikes Bane in the chin with his cane, knocking him back)

Oscar: (Ozpin. As Qrow gets back to his feet) Qrow, keep back. I'll handle him.

Bane: (Rubs his chin before chuckling) Heh. You got guts, kid. Shame I gotta rip 'em out of ya.

Oscar/Ozpin: A fool and his money are soon parted.

(He runs to join the fray. Meanwhile Anakin is dueling Grievous, and while their blade locked, trade gibes)

Grievous: I expected you to be older Skywalker, considering your reputation.

Anakin: Funny, I expected you to be taller. Guess we're both disappointed.

(Shoving each other to a distance, they both square off again.)

Grievous: Ha ha! *Cough* You where definitely Obi-Wan's protage, scum. I cannot wait to see his face when I cut him down with your saber.

Anakin: You'll be waiting a long time General.

!FIGHT!

Anakin: (Coldy) This, is for every Jedi who held those sabers...

(After Anakin defeats Grievous he goes in for the kill only for the cyborg to scorpion kick him and scuttle off. Anakin gives pursuit, cutting down Droids along the way, but is caught in an Magnaguard ambush, led by Aurra.)

Aurra: You are so predictable, I can see where you Padawen get's it from.

Anakin: I taught her well enough to beat you, bounty hunter!

(Anakin takes on the Magnaguards as Aurra watches. Smiling as his aggressiveness, as he cuts and smashes them.)

Aurra: Perhaps I was wrong. You never taught Tano to fight like that... I wonder, what would she think of her Masters true nature.

Anakin: You don't know me!

Aurra: Oh? Y'know Tattooine's kind of my stomping ground. You hear about all sorts of things there... (counts with her fingures) Sarlaac Pits, Krayt Dragons, Abductions...

(Anakin frowns)

Aurra: Entire Tuskan tribes being wiped out... They tell stories about that y'know. The vengeful one with the blue blade.

Anakin: I, will kill, you.

Aurra: I've lived a long time an no ones been able to deliver on those words.

!FIGHT!

Anakin: (Vader like) You should not have taunted me.

(Aurra tries blasting him with her rifle, but he cuts off the barrel before she can. Quickly she pulls out her vibro daggers and lunges at him, only for him to block every strike. Gone is the Skywalker flair, something else has taken it's place. He bats away one of her swords, and uses the opening to force choke her. Levitating her for a moment before slamming her against the wall of the open cavern their in. His force grip still held, as she grasps at her throat.
So focused on her death he almost doesn't hear Grievous sneak up on him. Anakin quickly abandons Sing and backflips over the cyborg s four armes lunges. He growls in frustration as he ses Sing slip away while Grievous is between them.)

Grievous: Perhaps I misjudged you, *cough* your far more interesting then Kenobi.

Anakin: (shaking off his anger) Thinking of getting him jealous? Trust me you'll just amuse him.

Grievous: He ha!

(before they can fight though, the familiar thrum of LAAT gunships pass overhead, and Clone blaster fire joins in soon after. Reinforcements. One LAAT briefly holds over the cavern. Allowing a single hooded figure with a purple saber to jump down to aid Skywalker.)

Revan: Go join the others! I'll face the Kaleesh.

(Anakin runs past Revan. Leaving the two masked lightsaber wielders alone. )

Grievous: Your a new one, but you'll fall like any other-

(Grievous is cut off mid sentence as Revan, casts Force Lightning into his cybernetic torso. Untrained in the way of blocking it as few Jedi would ever use that power)

Grievous: Wha- *Cough* *Cough* What kind of Jedi are you?!

Revan: You have never faced anyone like me before! I was Sith, I am Jedi!

(Cut to outside, Anakin gazes out upon the battle, Clones, Huntsman and Jedi. Vs Droids, hunters, and more droids. Just as he's about to jump in a unforgettable voice stops him in his tracks.)

???: Always eager for battle aren't you, Skywalker.

(With utter seriousness Anakin turns to the speaking, dressed in black, save for a brown cape, the only reminder of his former Jedi status, and the white of his beard still visible from under his hood.)

Dooku: (taking it off) It did not avail you on Geonosis, it shall not help you here.

Anakin: What's the matter Count? Run out of Droids to send after me, so you have to take me on yourself?

Dooku: With you, Skywalker. (activates his curved saber with a graceful flourish) I always know it's best to deal with you personally.

!Fight!

Anakin: Your right. I'm far too much trouble.

Padme: Anakin!

(he turns to his secret wife as she runs up to him, her gun leveled at Dooku.)

Padme: Seems you brought me just what I wanted. A captured Count Dooku.

Anakin: (Friendly) Anything for you Senator.

Dooku: (disgusted noise)

Rex: (joining them with his men) General! The clankers are in retreat. Grievous, and hunters too.

Anakin: What do you know Count. Seems there's no honor amongst thieves or Separatists.

Dooku: So it would seem.

Padme: Find some restraints Rex. Seems we have a guest to accommodate.

(Elsewhere Luke Skywalker is wandering a vast cave littered with the remains of a forgotten Remnant civilization.)

---
He goes on to spot Rey, as she's jumping across a ruined bridge. Catching her and pulling her to safety just as the bit she stands on gives way.

Luke: That was close. Are you okay?

Rey: (getting her breath back) Thank you, I'm fine. I must have misjudged the- (looks up and sees who it is) Master Skywalker?

Luke: Ah, you must be from another point in time.

Rey: Yeah. I'm from... well, to you, the future. ...This is unbelievable.

Luke: Tell me about it. But a perk of being a Jedi is getting to face the impossible and strange almost daily so...

Rey: Chuckle.
---
After that they explore the place together. Rey telling him of her time, omitting some details in case it alters history. Mostly focusing on her trials as a Jedi.

Rey: -Honestly looking back, It was a miracle I was able to land that hit on Kylo. If the planet hadn't cracked I don't know long I would've lasted.

Luke: Humility is a virtue, Rey, but do not diminish your feats. That moment called out to you and you answered it just as I did above. Both of us could've just ran away, allowed fear to chase us away, but we didn't. I've come to realize that is what truly makes someone a Jedi. Not robes, not a Lightsaber. The simple defiance in the face of fear.

Rey: Yeah... Yeah. I think your right... But they do make us look very impressive.

Luke: Oh, certainly. (both chuckle) I couldn't help but noticed some gaps in your tale. However I'll take it in good faith, that your attempting to preserve the timeline.

Rey: Umm... Yes. It's just, I'm not sure of the rules of this whole mess. But I guess it's something we'll all have to work out together.

Cool. Though, it'd probably have to be a younger Jaune, as the present-day Jaune is a Regime enforcer.
---------------
Luke: With someone so attuned to the light as you are, I'm sure I'll have good company for that journey. (Rey smiles at that. Suddenly, he stops, his relaxed expression dropping in favor of an alert one)

Rey: Master Skywalker? What's -- (She stops as she gains the same alert expression) ...I sense it, too. The dark side.

Luke: We're not alone in here. (He continues to walk along) Stay vigilant. (They continue on, keeping their sabers at the ready)
---------------
(Outside, Hazel, recovered from his fight with Ozpin, stumbles away from the battlefield through the woods, looking none too pleased -- with the outcome of his encounter or himself. As he walks along, he hears the LAAT gunships' distinct repulsorlift engines and looks up to see them fly away overhead, while the Hawk heads towards the mountain range. He gives a low growl before turning to continue walking, only to stop as a red lightsaber blade appears in front of his neck. He doesn't even flinch)

Hazel: (Sighs) I've had a bad day, friend. (Looks at the blade's holder, Agent Marek) I'm in no mood to pick a fight with you.

Agent Marek: (As PROXY approaches from behind) Then answer my question truthfully, and I'll have no reason to separate your head from your shoulders. And no lies. I'll know.

Hazel: (Stares at the Imperial Agent for a moment before looking forward) ...fair enough.

Agent Marek: I seek one called Skywalker. Have you seen him? If so, where is he?

Hazel: I've met two, as a matter of fact.

Agent Marek: (Looks surprised under his mask) Impossible.

Hazel: What reason do I have to lie? I'm not exactly in the most advantageous position.

Agent Marek: Where are they?

Hazel: One of them probably just flew off in those airships that just passed us. The other I left buried in a cave up the mountain range. If he's still alive, he'll be up there. It's an old ruin. You can't miss it.

Agent Marek: Which Skywalker is in this cave?

Hazel: Younger fellow. The other's son, as I understand. (Marek's eyes widen further beneath his helm as he contemplates this new information. He lowers and deactivates his saber) We done here, then?

Agent Marek: ...very well. You're free to leave. But get in my way, and I will kill you.

Hazel: ...understood. (Continues on his way without another word)

PROXY: Master? Are we still going after Skywalker?

Agent Marek: Yes, PROXY. (Looks up at the mountain as the Hawk continues towards it) But not the same one. The one in the mountain is a far grander prize for Lord Vader. (Speaks into his comlink) Juno, bring the ship around. I'm feeling like a little spelunking...

5. POWER OF THE LIGHT
----------
Luke Skywalker & Rey

(Luke and Rey continue through the caves, staying alert)

Rey: These caves...I can hear voices all around them.

Luke: The ghosts of a civilization long past. This cave used to be full of people, living in an underground city.

Rey: Why would anyone live like that?

Luke: Why would you live in an old Imperial walker?

Rey: (Smirks) Fair point.

Luke: (Holds up his hand) Hold up! Do you hear that?

Rey: (Listens in as she hears two feminine voices in the chamber up ahead) ...yeah...yeah, I do. (They move up, coming up to a bridge along a giant chasm, filled with other bridges crisscrossing in every direction. On one of the bridges below, they spot the source of the two voices, one a blue Twi'lek and the other a Mirialan) Are those...

Luke: Jedi. Like us.

(Down below)

Aayla Secura: I still can't get over those soldiers we fought outside. They looked like Clones, but...different. Soulless.

Luminara Unduli: I know. I don't understand it much myself, but obsessing over it will do no good. The Force will guide us, as it always has. The answers will present themselves in time.

Aayla: And what of our fellows? Skywalker, Kenobi, Master Yoda, Master Windu?

Luminara: Relax yourself, my friend. Trust in the Force. Our friends will persevere without us.

???: YOU THERE! (Both Jedi Masters look forward to see a pair of young girls enter into the chasm on the same bridge as them, one is dressed in red, has black hair with red accents, and carries what appears to be a sniper rifle, while the other is dressed in white, has equally white hair and carries what looks like a rapier. The white-haired girl is the one speaking) This site is restricted to civilian access by order of the Regime! Who are you?! ...and for that matter, what are you?

Luminara: Well, aren't you two just neighborly.

Aayla: Calm yourselves. We did not know what this place was. We went into these caves seeking shelter. If you want us to, we'll leave.

Ruby: (Rubs the back of her head awkwardly) Yeah, sorry...see, standing orders are "arrest any non-Regime personnel who sets foot in restricted areas." So we're gonna have to cuff ya. (Give a shrug and a regretful smile) Nothing personal?

Luminara: I'm afraid we'll have to pass on that offer. We'll find our own way, thank you. (She and Aayla turn to walk away, only for Weiss to use her glyphs to surf around them and block the other end of the bridge)

Weiss: It wasn't an offer. You'll either accept arrest peacefully, or we'll take you by force. Don't make this difficult. (Luke and Rey give each other looks and nod before leaping down)

Ruby: It's only until we clear things up! Then you're free to go!

Aayla: We cannot afford to wait that long. The ones pursuing us --

Weiss: Don't matter. Now lay down on your stomach and -- (Luke and Rey land in front of Weiss with a reverberating stomp) WHAT THE--?!

Luke: (Both he and Rey ignite their lightsabers) No crime has been committed here. I suggest you kids go home.

Ruby: Whoa...(she turns into petals and flys over to Weiss to get a better look at the Jedi's weapons) I've never seen swords like those before! Can I hold one?!

Weiss: Ruby, you dolt! Now isn't the time!

Ruby: Oh, right. (Clears her throat) Civilians! You have been caught trespassing in restricted territory! Lay down your weapons and surrender!

Rey: (Looks at the masters) Go! We'll be right behind you! (The masters nod and turn to run, only for Ruby to appear in front of them)

Ruby: Weiss! Keep them busy!

Weiss: With pleasure. (Angles Myrtenaster up at Luke and Rey) You two and your friends there are in serious trouble.

(Weiss lets loose a fire glyph at Rey, who dodges and counters with as force push which Weiss slides away from. They continue to trade blows in the distance as Luke and Ruby square off)

Luke: I can tell your far too good natured for this work. Why go along with it?

Ruby: Because if I don't stay with my friends, they might get hurt without me around to help them. I've lost too many already.

Luke: It's hard to understand this, but if you truly respect their choices, you must let them be.

!Fight!

Luke: I hope your lessons are less painful then I made mine.

(Luke flips over Weiss drawing her away from Rey and Ruby)

Rey: Look your very adorable-

Ruby: Oh thanks, so are you!

Rey: ...Yes, well. If you just put down that... Gun-blade. I can show you how my lightsaber works. Deal.

Ruby: That would be so cool! But... I really have to bring you in. Sorry! Hope we can still be friends!

!Fight!

Rey: *Sigh* Me too little girl.

(The other Jedi lands on their feet next to the victor as both face down Weiss)

Weiss: Typical. Ruby's far too immature. It's how stronger opponents keep getting the drop on her. I suppose I'll have to handle this myself.

(Luke and Rey lift their lightsabers. Aayla steps in front of them, holding out her hands)

Aayla: Please! This has gone on long enough. Let us leave if you don't want us here.

Luminara: I agree. There is a peaceful solution here that you are not seeing.

Weiss: Oh, I see the solution. You four in cuffs and onboard a prisoner transport.

Rey: Something tells me she's not interested in diplomacy.

Luke: You two keep back. Tend to her colleague. (Aayla and Luminara, reluctantly, fall back and gather around Ruby's unconscious form)

Weiss: Final warning! Surrender!

Rey: Not happening...

Weiss: (Growls frustratedly) Then you give me no choice...

CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER
LUKE <--- LS ---> REY

<---

Luke: I'll handle this. Watch my back. (Rey nods and falls back. Luke steps forward) Please, lay down your blade. I don't wish to fight you.

Weiss: You've already lost that choice, whoever you are. Now I'm going to take you in by force.

Luke: "Choice?" If the choice is becoming the Regime's prisoner or resistance, then there is no choice.

--FIGHT--

Luke: Maybe one day, you'll see not everything has to be solved through raw force.

--->

Rey: Cover me. I'll take the lead. (Luke steps back as Rey strides forward) Listen. I don't know why you're doing this, but you don't have to.

Weiss: I do, actually. Superman has kept order on this world. And if he says anyone who comes in here must be arrested, then that is to preserve order -- and I'll follow that command to the letter.

Rey: (Scoffs) You sound just like the First Order. I wonder, has this Superman destroyed a star system in the name of order, or has he not gotten the chance yet?

--FIGHT--

Rey: I know someone who walked away from that road. Let's hope you do the same.

(Luke and Rey join up with Aayla and Luminara, who are tending to the still unconscious Ruby)

Luke: Do you think they'll be alright?

Aayla: I sense their life force still within them. You fought to subdue, not to kill. That, plus the lightsabers and the Force within you both...

Luminara: (She and Aayla stand) You're Jedi, then. Though, I don't recognize either of you.

Rey: Neither do we. Probably has something to do with the time thing.

Aayla: "Time thing?"

Luke: Allow me. (The three other Jedi focus in on him) I don't know how it's happening, but time itself has come apart. Past, present, and future are meshing together onto one world. This world. That probably explains how I met Rey here despite her time and mine being thirty years apart.

Luminara: (Mildly shocked) I see...then we must find a way to reverse it, lest galactic history itself be rewritten.

Aayla: Introductions, first. My name is Master Aayla Secura. And this is Master Luminara Unduli.

Rey: I'm Rey. And this is Luke Skywalker.

Luminara: (Cocks an eyebrow) Skywalker? Hmm...interesting. We know a Skywalker of our own. Perhaps you two are related.

Luke: Anakin Skywalker...my father. Yes, I've already met him.

Aayla: Then let us hurry out of here and see if we can find him. I sense the dark side within these caves.

???: How perceptive. (The group turns and ignite their sabers, spotting a black armored man at one end of the bridge) We meet at last, son of Vader.

Luke: (Suprised) "Son of Vader?" (The man holds out his hand, almost instantly shattering the supports of the bridge they're on, causing the bridge to shift. The shift jolts Ruby awake as the bridge begins to crumble before the man) Sithspit...MOVE!

(The Clone Wars era Jedi leap to the other end of the bridge, while Luke and Rey leap to another nearby bridge. Ruby turns to petals and flies up to the same bridge as Luke and Rey. As she lands, she turns back to see the still unconscious Weiss falling along with the parts of the destroyed bridge)

Ruby: WEISS!!! (Weiss and the stones around her disappear into the gloom. Ruby can only watch helplessly as she watches her friend fall. Convinced she's lost her partner, the Red Reaper falls to her knees as tears stream down her face. She covers her face with her hands, openly sobbing) W-Weiss...I'm sorry...

(As she cries, however, Weiss's unconscious body slowly rises up in front of her, as if on its own. Ruby looks up from her hands as her face brightens up in awe at seeing Weiss rise up from the chasm. Ruby looks to her side to see Luke and Rey holding out their hands, using the Force to keep Weiss suspended in the air. They pull her over to Ruby and gently set her down. Ruby hugs her partner's body and weeps tears of relief into her shoulder. She looks up with a grateful smile at Luke and Rey, who smile back. Before any of them can say anything, however, the Sith lands behind them, prompting the pair of Jedi to whirl around and ignite their sabers)

Agent Marek: So eager to save another's life, even when it's that of your enemy. How disgustingly naive.

Rey: Who are you?! What do you want?!

Agent Marek: I was here for just Skywalker. My master's son brought forth to him will please him and the Emperor alike. (Luke's eyes widen at this) But you, child...I sense great power in you. Raw and untapped, perhaps, but great nonetheless. (Rey scowls) Both of you together will surely earn me a substantial reward. Perhaps I'll finally be able to shut up that idiot, Hethrir. (Pulls his saber and ignites it) Now then...shall we begin?

Luke: Try to help the others Rey. You seem confident, but I sense the fear, the doubt, and pain. You can be free of that, free of the Dark Side.

Agent Marek: The Dark Side is all I've ever known, and soon, so shall you.

!Fight!

--->

Rey: I've got this. Try and find the Jedi I'll keep him busy.

Agent Marek: With your power you could bring down worlds. Why waste it with the Jedi?

Rey: Because it's my choice. I may not have asked for it, but I know strength alone is worthless, if you don't help anyone but yourself.

!Fight!

Luke: So long as your trapped by the Dark Side, your choices will never be your own.

Rey: You have power and experience, but nothing concrete to stand on. You think that's an accident?

(Marek, is on his knees exhausted, his mask cracked as the the others arrive. Looking at them he slams the dirt in frustration of his defeat.)

Agent Marek: NO! This isn't my destiny! I was meant to be someone, something important! My pain can't have been for nothing!

(He rips off his helmet, showing the clean shaving young man underneath, his face full of conflicting emotions)

Luminara: Poor child. He's only ever known pain, absolute victory or defeat.

Aayla: With punishment no doubt following the latter.

Luke: Perhaps then, he is not completely lost. (he kneels down to his eye level) I know you think you can gain some control in your life by pleasing the Emperor. But their respect will never come, he only uses the promise of it to keep you under their influence. In the end your life will remain anothers, to be used and thrown away at their whim. Unless you walk away.

Agent Marek: (unsure and emotional) I... I don't-

???: So predictable.

(the Jedi look up to see a tall armoured agent, surrounded by Purge troopers. His unique variation recognized by Marek as Hethrir)

Hethrir: I'd hoped you would have at least manage to wear down Skywalker before I took him from you, and you couldn't even do that.

(he tosses the online but limp form of PROXY to Marek's side)

PROXY: Master we where followed. They put a restraing bolt on me.

Marek: Where's Juno?! ( he says as he tries prying off the bolt.

Hethrir: Captain Eclipse was no where to be found on your ship. A good career move, you won't be her charge for long.

(Marek manages to pull off the bolt allowing PROXY to sit upright)

PROXY: Outrageous! Only I have been programed to terminate Master Marek.

Rey: (whispers to Luke) What's happening here?

Luke: Imperial politics.

Hethrir: (To the Troopers) Only Skywalker, is to be left alive and unspoiled. Kill the others!

(They activate their electro weaponry and form up. The ladies and Luke doing the same with their sabers.)

PROXY: I will join you.

(he says with convention, earning him brief glances as he takes on the appearance of a robed Jedi Temple Guard, yellow lightssaber and all, before the melee breaks out. Each generation of Jedi, and PROXY, match the blows of the Imperials who to their credit hold their own. Rey and Luke, find themselves back to back, as Hethrir approaches with unsettling calm)

CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER
Luke <--- LS ---> Rey

Rey: (Blocks Hethrir's strike at Luke, pushing him away blades locked, before slicing at him fiercely) Not today!

Hethrir: You have fire girl. But what makes you so special?

Rey: Nothing... I'm just a kid from Jakku.

Hethrir: (sighs with disappointment) Another desert rat... Its as though you rabble drawn to each other.

!Fight!

<---

(Luke Force pulls a dead Purgetrooper's baton, using it with his saber to put Hethrir on the defensive. Before it's kicked away by the nimble Hethrir)

Hethrir: Inventive. I can see how you lasted so long against your father on Bespin.

Luke: So he was telling the truth. Vader is my father...

Hethrir: Oh yes. And he has such signs to show you.

!Fight!

(Once bested Hethrir simply stands back up helmetless)

Hethrir: Enough games!

(He pulls a Purgetrooper to him, placing his hand in front of his face before drawing his life energy from him, healing Hethrir, and killing the trooper to everyones shock)

Weiss: (still on Ruby's lap) Monster.

Hethrir: I've been called worse.

(High on his rejuvenated power, Hethrir takes on all the Jedi deflecting their blows, and striking PROXY across the chest, kicking him towards Marek again.)

PROXY: I think I'm outmatched.

Agent Marek: (hooking PROXY's arm over his shoulder) Let's just get outta here, find Juno and-

(just then he spots her, sneaking amongst the ruins with a rifle in hand aiming it at Hethrir)

Agent Marek: Juno?

(she fires but Hethrir, deflects it without even looking, before grabbing her in a choke pulling her to him)

Agent Marek: No!

Hethrir: A shame... The Empire is about to loose another fine Officer. (he reaches out about to drain her an evil grin on his face, when)

Marek: Arrr!! (He unleashes a powerful force push at him, sending him flying behind the Jedi.)

Juno: (getting her breath) A-Agent?

Marek: Never mind that lets go.

(Together with her and PROXY they run deeper into the cave, while Hethrir faces the Jedi alone. His boost deplenished, he's no longer able to keep them at bay. Getting nicked here and there before being slammed into a ruin wall. His blade knocked away)

Aayla: You are beaten!

Luminara: Surrounded.

Rey: Your men are dead.

Luke: Your plot to bring me to Vader has failed.

(to that he looks downward, only to begin a chuckle thar grows into a full blown laugh)

Hethrir: You think I'm as ill prepared as Marek? I planned for this possibility. I don't need to bring you to Vader...

(a sound echos throughout the ruin. One everyone but Luke is unfamiliar with. Rey, soon catches on, as the mechanical breathing grows louder)

Hethrir: When I can bring him to you.

(panic begins to settle onto them, even the Masters as they sense the great darkness. Luke, remains steadfast, as the unmistakable black armour comes into view above them on the wall. Alongside a small army of elite Stormtroopers and Deathtroopers.)

Aayla: Skywalker?

(Vader jumps down to their level in front of Hethrir, his troops spread out, surrounding the Jedi as well as the two members of team RWBY.)

Luke: Father...

Hethrir: As promised my Lord. Commander Skywalker.

Vader: (briefly looks at Luke before addressing Hethrir) You have done well Agent. Now return to your ship.

Hethrir: (Bows slightly) At once. (he slinks off pulling his saber back to him)

Vader: So you have accepted the truth.

Luke: I accept that you where once Anakin Skywalker my father.

Vader: That name! No longer has any meaning to me, nor do any of these ghosts you stand with.

Luminara: What happened to you?

Vader: I accepted a greater cause then service to a corrupt Republic.

Luminara: There's to it then that, I feel it.

Vader: Enough! Son, (he reaches out his hand) you have increased your power, constructed a new lightsaber. Return with me, and I will allow those with you to leave unarmed.

Rey: (whispers to herself) No. This Isn't how this happened?

Luke: Allow them to leave first. I will stay.

Aayla: You can't!

Luke: I have no choice. Father, allow them to pass.

Vader: As you wish. (with a simple gesture the stormtroopers part) Go. Do not waste this rare mercy.

(reluctantly the Jedi leave Skywalker behind. Rey having seen the damage someone trying to emulate Vader can do, and unwilling to test going up against the real thing following, with Ruby and Weiss. Just as they pass and the troopers reform, Rey says)

Rey: May the Force be with you.

Luke: And you...

(Once the woman are out of sight, Luke, places his saber and his fate in Vader's hand)


OUTSIDE

Aayla: This is more dire then I thought. I always knew Skywalker had conflict within him, but to become a Sith?

Rey: That's not the worst of it.

Aayla: Explain.

Rey: History- my history. Says that Luke does give himself to Vader to save his friends, but it didn't happen here. It happened on a planet called Endor, far way. But it happened just now, but I still remember the original. Either that wasn't the same Luke Skywalker, or-

Aayla: Or history here has become so broken it's now fluid... Anything can happen.

Ruby: Excuse me, uh... Pretty blue lady. (Aayla turns to her) My heads a bit sore thinking about this but-

Weiss: Ruby, don't co-operate with the enemy!

Ruby: Weiss... Could you please?

(Weiss pouts)

Ruby: Anyway, If time is busted, then doesn't that mean, like you said, anything can happen. Meaning good things too? We could help people before they need help? Like that Vader guy?

Rey: That's true, but it could make things worse.

Luminara: Indeed. Part of being a Jedi is learning to accept certain things are out of our hands. Though I do worry about young Luke, his fate could be irrefutably altered.

???: I wouldn't worry to much.

(A gruff but familiar voice says. The ladies turn to face the man in the shadows, though his cloak is worn from holding against harsh elements, beneath that, like tha man himself, are the respected and cared for robes of a Jedi. The man steps out of the shadows showing the unmistakable face of Luke. With greyer hair and a beard)

Master Skywalker: I've got a feeling he'll be alright.

(Despite their rocky start. Rey can't help but smile.)

(In Atlas, Superman approaches General Ironwood as the later looks over a computer screen showing a map of Remnant, with red dots marking various points around the world)

Superman: James. You said you had updates on this time merge?

Ironwood: It's worse than I thought, Clark. Our forces are reporting active battlefronts all across Remnant, against numerous different parties of these so-called "interstellars." Keeping track of it all is enough of a headache without the fact that the reports say how their numbers are from various periods of time!

Superman: Give me a sitrep. I want to know everything that's happening on all fronts.

(Ironwood types in his console, showing a map of the Kingdom of Vale. Regime-controlled areas are red while Imperial-controlled areas are blue)

Ironwood: Reports from Vale indicate the faction known as the "Galactic Empire" has established a beachhead on the southern islands of Vitras and Vytas, and are using the area as a staging ground to launch attacks against our forces. They've pushed us back to Peterborough and the Glenn mountain range. The concentration of Grimm at Mount Glenn has slowed them down, but they're coping too well for us to count on those things to keep them occupied for too long. (He changes it to a map of Vacuo. In addition to Regime red and Imperial blue, there's also a black sliver along the northern coast) It isn't much better at Vacuo. In addition to the Empire taking Vantu, Kevir Island, and the Alemaine peninsula, there's another empire making moves out there. The "Sith Empire." They're arguably worse, with some sort of super soldiers augmenting their regular foot soldier ranks, with telepathic powers and blades of red, yellow, and purple light. The men report they can blast through armies without even touching them. They've only recently started their attacks and have already taken Schent and Artisia as well as the local Dust and resource mines.  (He changes to a map of Mistral. There's Regime red, along with orange areas in the southwestern islands and bone-white ones in the northeast, dangerously close to Mistral city) Then there're two completely different factions operating in Mistral. One calls itself the "Confederacy of Independent Systems" -- or the "Separatist Alliance," if you're feeling informal. They seemed to have appeared in the southwest of Anima. It also seems they've taken a liking to the place, as they've forcibly taken over much of the area, including Harbin, Odessa, and Kaido, and established their headquarters there. They use mechanical soldiers, much like we do, and have converted many of the manufacturies in the area to produce more of them. Intel reports are talking of them designing a model infused with the power of Dust. I shouldn't have to explain how that's a bad thing.

Superman: And the other?

Ironwood: The so-called "First Order." They're almost exactly like the Galactic Empire, but twice as advanced...and twice as deadly. They've cut through our forces at Irkutsk, Nagato, and Windpath, and are now sitting directly on the doorstep of Mistral itself. Atlas is secure for now, but that could change at any time. Intel says there are also other interstellar forces scattered throughout the world, some belonging to the forces shown here, others being independent, and others swearing allegiance to an entirely different faction. Not to mention the usual Insurgency activity. It's chaos.

Superman: Any idea as to where they came from? How they got here?

Ironwood: Not yet, I'm afraid. I've got Clover and the Ace Ops working that front, but they haven't turned up anything as of yet. (Superman scowls in anger as he turns away and walks away from the console. He looks up at a portrait on the wall of him and Lois Lane on their wedding day, to which his expression slowly softens. Ironwood comes up next to him) Clark?

Superman: Krypton...my parents...Lois...my son...Metropolis...Earth...now Remnant, the world I've perfected. What more, James? What more does the universe want to take from me?

Ironwood: (Places his hand on Superman's shoulder) We'll stop them, Clark. We'll sacrifice anything we have to in order to stop them...and her.

Superman: (Looks away from the portrait and at his friend) And what of Salem? Do we have a plan in case she tries something?

Ironwood: I have a few ideas, but let's wait until we arrive at that bridge to cross it. (Takes his hand off the Kryptonian's shoulder, giving a small smile) Just know you'll have my support every step of the way.

Superman: (Smiles back) You've always had my back, James. I don't know where I'd be without you and the others.

Ironwood: (Chuckles) Don't get too mushy on me now, Clark. We've still got a war to win. (Winter enters into the room)

Winter: High Councilor! General! I've got news!

Superman: (He and Ironwood turn to Winter) Winter. How's Diana?

Winter: She's almost fully recovered, but there's something else. It isn't just the interstellars' timeline that's been thrown into disarray. I've just received a report that our Special Ops units have encountered an alien woman sheltering two Remnant-born humans on Vale. They fled before we could arrest them. (Hands the report to Ironwood) But it wasn't just anyone she was sheltering.

(Ironwood opens the report, looking inside, and his eyes widen at seeing the three figures in the picture inside. The alien woman is a Togruta, with red skin and an almost motherly expression, donned in a bare minimum tribal-esque outfit, with a lightsaber attached to her belt. But she isn't what surprises him. What surprises him are the two individuals talking to her. One is a thin man with messy green hair and disheveled attire, with his white shirt partially tucked into his dark-green pants and its collar raised, showing a slack yellow tie, along with mismatched brown and black shoes. He also has round glasses that appear to be opaque. The other is a heavy-set man in early old age. He wears a double-breasted burgundy suit with gold piping and buttons. His pants he wears tucked into olive cavalry boots. Both men are dead...in the present day)

Ironwood: Impossible...

Superman: (Scowls after he sees he pictures and turns to Winter) Find them. And any others that might be out there. We need to know how far this goes.

------------------

(Cut back to the scene at Mistral with the Ebon Hawk still flying around the area, with Anakin, Ahsoka, Revan, Meetra, HK looking for Luke. The group is in the cockpit, looking out over the mountain ranges)

Anakin: He has to be here. Keep looking.

HK: Protest: I have been for the past 8.56 minutes, meatbag!

Ahsoka: So, Skyguy...if I get this correctly, you've got a son?

Anakin: In the future, yes. And I'm not letting him die up here.

Meetra: Master Skywalker...I know you probably don't want to hear this, but...we must assume the worse in situations like this. We cannot control fate.

Anakin: Don't give me that, alright?! Just keep looking!

Revan: (Looks down out the cockpit) Wait...I think...yes, I see someone! Down there! (Everyone follows his gaze, seeing a group of figures at a small clearing up the mountain)

Anakin: I can sense him. He's down there! (Looks at HK in the pilot's seat) Take us down!

HK: Refusal: You are not my master, meatbag.

Revan: (Sigh) Take us down, HK.

HK: Compliance: Right away, Master!

Remnant Map with MM! AU locations

Also, the Sith Empire Ironwood mentions is Vitiate's Sith Empire, led by Empress Acina, and employing Darth Malgus as their chief field commander.

On a final note, I can totally see old Luke trade barbs with his father. For example, as they see the Imperials fly away with young Luke, Anakin insists they go after them, with everyone else protesting against going after Vader's considerable escort. I imagine old Luke chiming in with:

Master Skywalker: Let them go. The boy will be fine.

Anakin: Easy for you to say when you're not the one in that shuttle!

Master Skywalker: As a matter of fact, dad, I am in that shuttle -- thirty years ago. At least try to keep up.

Oh, no doubt.

(Down below, the group looks at Master Skywalker with a degree of surprise, with the exception of the still smirking Rey)

Master Skywalker: So, you just gonna stand there and stare like a pack of idiots all day?

Ruby: (Turns into petals and zips over to him, looking him over as she speaks really quickly) OHMYGOSH, YOU'RETOTALLYTHATOTHERGUYBUTOLDERANDMAYBEALITTLEGRUMPIER, BUTIDON'TCARE, THISISAMAZING!

Master Skywalker: (Remains unflinching as Ruby continues moving all around him, before looking at Weiss) She doesn't happen to have an "off" button somewhere, does she?

Weiss: (Rolls her eyes) I've looked for years. Trust me, if I can't find one, you won't either.

Master Skywalker: I'll take your word for it. (Casually lifts Ruby up with the Force and moves her away as Rey comes up to him) Heya, kid.

Rey: (Giggles) Hello, master. You're looking well.

Master Skywalker: Better than this planet, lemme tell ya. I've met my fair share of crazy out here, and not just because of those black and white monsters that like to roam around.

Aayla: (Smirks) We can relate.

Master Skywalker: So, then. Time's coming apart. I guess that's the Force's way of saying it's time to come out of retirement.

Luminara: You're rather moody, compared to your younger self.

Master Skywalker: Yeah, well, young me's still pretty green. Hasn't seen what I have. (Looks away over the cliff's edge) Still...sensing myself like that again... (Looks back at the ladies with a smirk) Felt good. Nostalgic, almost.

Rey: (Approaches him) Then you're ready to do what you should've been doing when I found you?

Master Skywalker: (Chuckles) Don't push your luck, kid. (Rey smirks at that. An engine sound fills the air, with everyone looking up to see the Hawk setting down in the clearing before lowering its boarding ramp. Anakin runs out)

Anakin: Luke? LUKE?!

Ahsoka: (Runs out behind him before spotting the masters) Master Secura! Master Unduli!

Luminara: Ahsoka, Skywalker. It's a relief to see you both well.

Anakin: (Looks their way as the others exit the shuttle) You too, masters, but we're in a rush here. A friend we met up here's in trouble and we're hoping you -- (he stops as he looks at the older Luke) ...saw...Luke?

Master Skywalker: (Casually waves) Hey, dad.

Anakin: (Facepalms) Right. Different times, different Lukes. (Sighs as he sets his hand down) Have any of you seen him, but...well, younger?

Ruby: (Walks up to him) First of all, hi! Secondly, I think that's him leaving there. (Points up at a Lambda-class T-4a shuttle flying away from the mountains, accompanied by a slew of TIE Fighters and Alpha-class Xg-1 Star Wings)

Anakin: (His expression indicating he senses Luke onboard the shuttle) No... (Turns to HK) HK, fire -- (Stops himself before looking at Revan) Revan, tell HK to fire up the ship! We need to get after them!

Revan: (Shakes his head) By the time we're in the air to catch up to them, Skywalker, they'll have already moved out of sensor range.

Anakin: Then we'll find them again! Now let's go!

Rey: This outdated bucket of bolts against that many ships? Are you nuts?!

Anakin: (Turns to her) I can't abandon him!

Master Skywalker: Let them go. The boy will be fine.

Anakin: (Glares at him) Easy for you to say when you're not the one in that shuttle!

Master Skywalker: As a matter of fact, dad, I am in that shuttle -- thirty years ago. At least try to keep up.

Anakin: (Shakes his head) Y-You know what I mean!

Ahsoka: Master. (He looks at her) Let him go. (Anakin looks down before slamming his fist into a nearby pillar, leaving a noticeable crack in it, before slumping to his knees with a dejected sigh)

Weiss: (Leans over to HK) He's...got issues, doesn't he?

HK: Sarcastic remark: By the maker, how did you guess? I mean, he hides it so well. (Weiss glares at the machine)

Master Skywalker: (Walks over to him) If that Luke is anything like the one I was at his age, then he'll be fine. He's not a child to have his hand held by someone else, even if it's his father.

Anakin: ...I understand.

Master Skywalker: Then what are ya doing sitting there moping for? Come on, let's go! (Heads over to the ship) I want to get off this rock and down to lower altitudes. (Pushes past HK) Move it, rustbucket.

HK: Statement: You're a rather rude individual.

Master Skywalker: Counterstatement: You say that like I care.

Revan: (Lowers his head and facepalms as the others climb on after him) Wonderful. That's two grumpy old men I know.

Ahsoka: (As she moves past him with a smile) You must meet some pretty strange people.

Meetra: (Following after her) Oh, Ahsoka, you have no idea... (Revan sighs as he climbs aboard)

Luminara: (Puts her hand on Anakin's shoulder) Skywalker, there's something else we should discuss.

Anakin: About what?

Luminara: About your future. We met Darth Vader.

Anakin: (Eyes widen slightly before they close in acceptance. With a sigh, he opens them again) Then you know.

Aayla: Yes. We can't say for certain if he's your destiny, but we must be cautious. You are conflicted, Skywalker. I pray the light wins out. (She and Luminara board, with Anakin following close behind. Only Rey and the two Huntresses remain outside)

Rey: (Turns to them) Why don't you come with us? I'm sure nobody minds.

Ruby: About that... (she rubs the back of her head) ...we're due to check in any minute. We'll have to head back to HQ...and we'll have to make a report about what happened here. (Rey frowns sadly and nods in understanding)

Weiss: (Gains a small smile) Though in our condition...we probably won't remember much of anything. (Ruby glances at her, surprised. Weiss looks at her and winks, still smiling, to which Ruby smiles back. Rey smiles as well)

Rey: Thank you.

Weiss: (Turns back to her, her and Ruby's smiles dropping) Looking back...it's me who should be thanking you. You saved my life, even after we tried to arrest you.

Rey: (Casually) You were in danger. We had to help.

Weiss: But that's the thing. Why? Why not just let me fall?

Rey: ...because it's the right thing to do. (Ruby and Weiss both smile at her once more)

Ahsoka: Hey! New kid! You coming or what?

Rey: Right! Coming! (Steps onto the boarding ramp before looking back at the Huntresses) May the Force be with you. (The ramp closes as the ship takes off, leaving the Huntresses to call for evac. Rey comes up to the cockpit with the others) So, where to?

Meetra: Buckle up. Next stop, Menagerie!

--------------------

(In Menagerie, Theron, Lana, Batman, Blake, Han, and Ghira are looking over a screen showing signal feedback from every which corner of Remnant)

Theron: That's it. Signal beacon's working. We're getting responses from Republic and Rebel friendly forces all over the planet. They'll know that Menagerie is the place to group up at.

Lana: That's my Theron. (Pats his arm) Now, all we have to do is wait.

Batman: Good work. I had a feeling we could count on you.

Ghira: And not a moment too soon. Our moles in the Regime say that they're having issues keeping back the four major factions invading their territory. We could use a little firepower of our own.

Blake: Let's hope they get here sooner rather than later. (A Rebel soldier appears in the doorway)

Rebel: Uh, General?

Han: (He and the group look at her) What is it?

Rebel: You might wanna come and see this.

(The group does so, heading out of the Chieftain's residence, seeing the Clones, Obi-Wan, Ben, Kyle, Mara, Oscar, and Qrow offloading supplies in the middle of Main Street. Padmé and Yoda, who are overlooking the scene with Rex, turn and spot the Insurgency leaders. Yoda begins heading towards them while Padmé motions for Rex to come with them as she follows)

Batman: And you are?

Yoda: Yoda, I am. Friends, we are.

Padmé: My name is Padmé Amidala of the Galactic Senate. And this is Captain Rex of the Grand Army of the Republic.

Rex: We were hoping you'd have a place for our men here to rest up. Heard plenty of good things about you Insurgency types.

Yoda: Seek to assist you, we do, in the defense of the innocents oppressed by the Regime.

(The Insurgency leaders look at each other with smiles; even Batman is giving a hint of one. Blake turns back to them)

Blake: Well, Yoda, Senator, Captain... (Extends her hand) Welcome to the Insurgency. (Padmé beams as she takes Blake's hand and shakes it, while Yoda and Rex smile as well)

Yoda: Fail you, we will not.

6. SUBJUGATION 
----------
Darth Malgus

(In an Imperial command center based in the deserts of the Kingdom of Vacuo, Sith Empress Acina looks out over a map of the city of Vartuk, the last target of the Sith Empire before moving on to the capital city of Vacuo itself. Her face is cold and without pity as she contemplates her strategy with the Imperial officers and Sith Lords surrounding the holotable. As she stares over the table, the door behind her opens, and she gains an almost motherly smile as she senses the figure behind her)

Acina: Malgus. So good of you to join us. (She turns to face the hulking figure of Darth Malgus. The man is at least a head higher than Acina, and almost his entire body is covered in black armor, with cybernetics attached to many different parts of his body, including a breather mask over his mouth and nose. His eyes are Sith yellow, and his blad head is covered up by a black hood attached to an equally black cape. Despite his size, he respectfully kneels before Acina)

Malgus: What is thy will, Empress?

Acina: Rise, Lord Malgus. (He does so) The attack on the city the locals call Vartuk is set to begin. Once this city is taken, there will be no viable ports for this so-called "Regime" to channel supplies to the capital of this region. After Vartuk and Vacuo are ours, we can set about setting up a dedicated research project for this "Dust" the people here seem to rely on so heavily.

Malgus: And I am to lead this attack?

Acina: But of course. I would not place such an important battle in the hands of anybody but that whom I trust most. (She turns to the holomap as Malgus comes up to her side. She looks at a green Twi'lek and a Sith Pureblood on the other side of the table) Major Anri, Lord Vowrawn, care to brief Lord Malgus on the mission?

Anri: Thank you, my Empress. The Regime's gettin' desperate, milord. They know we're a force to be reckoned with, and they're pullin' plenty of stops. The city's surrounded by anti-air emplacements that've been harrassin' our recon bombers. Unless those guns go, we're lookin' at a lot of dead flyboys.

Vowrawn: Unfortunately, the guns are not the only problem to contend with. Vartuk is protected by a deflector shield powered by Dust. Even without the emplacements, it's doubtful at best that our bombs could break through it. Simply put, the shield must go if we're to drop our bombs or land our troop transports. But I don't think anti-air guns or shields will be a problem for you, will they, Lord Malgus?

Malgus: No problem at all, Lord Vowrawn.

Anri: The real problem lies in the ones defendin' 'em. Intel says there are some pretty tough customers out there. You'll probably have to go through 'em 'fore you can destroy either the guns or the shield.

Vowrawn: When you've neutralized the emplacements and the shield, signal our air cavalry. They will rain fire and soldiers down upon the city. The garrison commander overseeing the city will surely surrender soon afterward.

Acina: Do this, Malgus, and Vacuo will be within the Empire's reach.

Malgus: Then let us waste no more time. Major Anri, prepare your ground forces. (She nods) Vowrawn, ensure our Sith warriors are ready. (He smiles deviously) The subjugation of Vartuk begins now.

(Cut to Imperial troops and Sith rushing into the Regime forces. Malgus leads the fray, cutting through Atlesian Knights and soldiers alike. The Imperials easily push the Atlesian troops back to the city's edge. A pair of Atlesian Manta aircraft try to provide cover, only for an Imperial soldier to blast one down with an anti-air rocket. The other has a Sith leap into the air before throwing their saber, killing both pilots at once and sending their craft into a nosedive with the ground. Malgus coolly leads the front as he comes up to a pair of anti-air emplacements. He motions forward, instructing the Imperial troops next to him to set charges. They rush over, place the explosives, run back over the Malgus, and set them off, blowing apart both guns and sending a gust of wind that blows Malgus's cape back. He doesn't even flinch otherwise)

Malgus: Proceed. (The simple command sends the troops heading forward. As he follows them, he suddenly senses danger) Hold! (The two troops look back at him, just in time for a yellow blur to send one of them rocketing into the air before landing next to Malgus. The other tries to fire at the source, only for his gun to be cleaved in half by a broadsword, and himself cleaved to the ground shortly thereafter. Malgus glares at the culprits: a pair of blonde children, one a boy, the other a girl, stand before him, with the girl wearing a pair of weaponized gauntlets on her hands, one of which is mechanical, while the boy wields the sword) Hmph. Impressive...but inadequate.

Yang: I'm guessing you're the one to beat, huh? Jaune, I'll let you have first dibs. (She runs off to engage more Imperial troops as Jaune approaches Malgus)

Jaune: (Mock playfully) Yang, you shouldn't have. (Engages in a sword fight with Malgus. Blades clash as the battle rages around them. Eventually, Malgus manages to parry Jaune and slash his arm. However, the blow only stumbles Jaune back a few feet without leaving any lasting damage. Malgus's eyes widen at this as Jaune brushes off his arm) I'm guessing that didn't go according to plan?

Malgus: (Narrows his eyes) Hmph. You are hardier than you look. That should have cost you your arm, boy.

Jaune: Good old Kryptonian nano-tech. It makes me practically invincible. You can't touch me, Frankenstein.

Malgus: You are about to learn a very painful lesson, child. No one is invincible.

--FIGHT--

Malgus: The arrogance of youth... (turns to Yang blade pointed at her) Though I sense plenty more from you.

Yang: (arms up in boxing pose) What can I say? Folks love a confident girl, really helps me on the dating scene. Can't imagine it'd do you any good, baldy!

(She rockets at him but with the reflexes of one strong with the force he easily dodges her. Letting her skid past him before facing her)

Malgus: I have only ever loved one, and that did not spare her from my blade.

Yang: Thanks. Now I know your every bit the monster you look.

Malgus: To ensure ones strength, every weakness must be purged. Even when it destroy's us inside.

!Fight!

Malgus: A lesson you will take to your grave!

---
Idea: Revan and Thrawn commanding opposing armies. With Thrawn impressed at his foes willingness to spend lives but never waste them.

Meetra later confronts him over it concerned it may be a repeat of last time, but the Grimm influence affects them. Spilling their argument from pragmatism vs sentimentality, into rants against each other.

Meetra attacking Revan about how he destroyed as many lives as he saved including hers, and corrupted his best friend, whose rampage against the galaxy was as much his fault as Malak's. That Darth Treya would be so proud of his manipulations
Revan counters, by pointing how she ran away to the outer rim. How much of himself he sacrificed with each terrible choice he had to make. That her and galaxy have no right to judge him when they where glad to have him on their side.
(like Loghain's landsmeet rant in Dragon Age. He and Revan are a lot alike)
Leading to a CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER between them like Injustice 2. They both snap out of it afterwards, but it does determine who you fight next. Meetra fights HK. Revan fights Theron, before the other clears up the mess.

Another Idea: Obi-Wan snarking (for a change he he) at the captive Count, about how they seem to be taking turns.

Anakin: :Commlink: How's our guest?
Obi-Wan: Behaving himself. If that changes you'll know... You know Count, this is becoming a habit of ours.
Dooku: ...
Obi-Wan: First you capture us on Geonosis, then we captured you. We all where captured together. Now it's your turn again.
Dooku: I suppose there is a certain... equilibrium. To our encounters. Though I fail to see the humor in it.
Obi-Wan: I suppose when you become a Sith, a good sense of humor is the first thing to go?
Dooku: (Remembering Sideous' humor) *Chuckle* Not quite.
Obi-Wan: I'll take your word for it.

The biggest one I have is Darth Bane appearing. vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/st…
Which brings about a moral issue. Killing him would stop the Rule of Two, but would likely lead to the Sith rising again in greater number. Starting a war in the millennium the High Republic was suppose to exist. So they have to spare him.
Revan mentally kicks himself for inspiring the concept.

Not bad ideas. We'll see if they go anywhere.

I also thought about past versions of RWBY and JNPR being brought into the modern day, with some meeting their past selves. Ruby, Yang, Weiss, and Jaune might express disgust at the sight of their future selves becoming Superman's enforcers, like past Jax with his future self allying with Kronika in MK11, while Pyrrha is disturbed about her future death and becoming a Black Lantern, kind of like Liu Kang, Kung Lao, and Jade with their revenants.

Another idea is Vader being redeemed by Luke like in ROTJ but surviving and escaping with Luke before joining him and the Insurgency, and donning the white armor he wore at the end of the ROTJ issue of Star Wars Infinities.

My last idea is a lost and purposeless Starkiller and his crew encountering Rahm Kota and a redeemed Maris Brood, with the former telling of how their Galen Marek was once of the dark side but turned away from it, and started the Rebellion. The latter tells him of how he spared her despite the sins she committed, giving her a chance to make up for her misdeeds. After a little convincing by the two, the former Hand renounces his codename as Starkiller, sticking with his birth name of Galen Marek, and joining them and the forces of good alongside Juno and PROXY.

BTW, Lantern and Flash are both still with the Regime at this moment in the INJRWBY universe.

---

(Malgus stomps over to the exhausted Yang as she tries to pick herself up, before pressing his foot into her throat. Yang chokes, feebly punching at his foot as she squirms underneath him. Her eyes begin to roll back as she loses air, all while Malgus stares down at her. Suddenly, Malgus gains an alert expression, looking to his side just in time for Jaune's fist to collide with his jaw, the force sending him stumbling back. Jaune, still winded from his earlier battle with Malgus, stumbles himself after landing the blow and falls to his knees over Yang, who's now breathing deep and coughing to get back air)

Jaune: (Panting) C'mon, Yang...this guy...is out of our...league... (Helps her up)

Yang: (Coughing) N-No way...we can still... (CAFF, CAFF!)

Jaune: No, we can't...there's nothing more...we can do here...let's get out of here...while we still can.

Yang: But the city...

Jaune: We just have to hope...that Hal and Barry...can hold the line. (He leads her away as Malgus watches coldly. Major Anri comes up next to him)

Anri: Sir, my men report the guns've been disabled. We're clear to move into the city and towards the shield generator. (Notices Jaune and Yang limping away) What about those two? Want us to finish 'em off?

Malgus: No. They are not our most urgent concern. (Turns with her towards the city as Imperial soldiers, vehicles, and Sith walk in through the shield) The city is the prize. Move in.

Anri: Yes, milord. (Speaks into our comlink as she and Malgus march forward) All forces, hit them hard. Clear us a way to the shield generator.

(Sometime later, Malgus, Anri, and a collection of Imperial soldiers march up to the shield generator in the middle of the city as the sounds of battle rage on in various areas of the city)

Anri: Wonderful piece of tech, all powered by a tiny li'l crystal. Shame we gotta blow it.

Malgus: We'll wring the information to build one of our own from the Regime's engineers. Proceed, Major.

Anri: (Turns to the troops) Alright, men, you heard him. Get those charges set! Double time! (A group of demolitions troops head up to the shield and start setting explosive charges all around its base)

(As they do so, Malgus suddenly becomes alert, looking around the area. Anri notices)

Anri: Milord? Somethin' wrong? (As soon as the words leave her mouth, a group of her troops is swatted away by a large yellow hand. Malgus, Anri, and the rest of the soldiers turn towards the source: a man in a yellow suit of armor with a glowing yellow ring on his finger)

Yellow Lantern: I'd stop what you're doing if I were you. (A man in a red suit with a lightning bolt emblazoned on it suddenly appears next to him)

Anri: Ravens, take 'em out! Keep 'em off the demo squad! (She and her troops open fire, with the red-suited man dodging the blasts at a rapid pace, leaving a red and yellow afterimage. Yellow Lantern comes up to Malgus)

Yellow Lantern: So you're the guy the boys in the trenches are talking about. Gotta admit, I was thinking you'd be taller.

Malgus: (Ignites his lightsaber) It's not my size you should fear.

Yellow Lantern: "Fear," huh? Funny choice of words. This ring here is powered by fear -- yours, mine, your men. I'm more than your match.

Malgus: Come then, warrior. Let us see which is stronger: your fear or my Force.

--FIGHT--

Malgus: Your grasp on fear is meager at best.

(Anri is thrown to the ground next to him as Flash runs up next to the exhausted Lantern. Malgus simply stares at him)

Flash: Hal! You okay?

Yellow Lantern: I will be... (groans)

Malgus: You defeated my soldiers. Impressive. A pity it will not save you.

Flash: I don't need saving. (Zips around Malgus, striking at him from every which way, until the Sith simply backhands Flash mid-run, sending him rolling around the ground. Flash stands groggily) How did you --?

Malgus: You clearly do not realize the power of the Force. Your speed is remarkable. But with the Force, I can think faster than you can run.

--FIGHT--

Malgus: You have failed. (The shield generator explodes behind him, with him not even flinching. Anri comes up next to him as the other Imperials recover and surround Flash and Lantern) Your shield has fallen. Your city is vulnerable, and its defenders weakened. Your defeat is inevitable.

(Anri and the troops fire at the two, with Lantern forming a shield around them with his ring)

Lantern: Hang on, Barry! (They fly off as the troops continue firing at them)

Anri: Blast! Sorry, milord.

Malgus: It is of little consequence. Signal the air cavalry.

Anri: (Smirks and nods as she hits her comlink) Air forces! The shield and guns are down! Raise some hell!

(In the distance, Jaune and Yang can only watch helplessly as Hal and Barry fly towards them while the city behind them is besieged by Imperial bombers and landing craft. Hal lands and sets Barry down)

Flash: (Looks back at the city) We couldn't stop them. They tore into us like a pack of wolves...

Yang: How's this happening? How is it these interstellars keep getting the drop on us?!

Yellow Lantern: Relax, Yang. This is just one battle. They won't win the war.

Jaune: How can we be sure? They seem to be pretty well so far, and they aren't even the only front.

Yellow Lantern: Armies like theirs always do well the first time around. Give them time. If we don't hit back, I can promise you -- someone else will.

(As Malgus and Anri approach the Dust complex their solders gone ahead to secure it, the Twi'lek notices her lords expression. Usually determination, rage, or raging determination. Has changed to something resembling... Concern?)

Anri: M'lord. Forgive my prying, but you don't seem all that chuffed. The attacks been goin' smoother then a Selkath in water?

Malgus: Call it experience Commander, but I've learned that it is precisely when victory seems assured, that it is at the greatest risk of being snatched from our grasp.

Anri: Aye that's true. Do you thi_

Comm: Commander! Lord Malgus! We've secured the Dust factory but... My Lord, you'll want to see this.

Malgus: (Growls in frustration as he marches ahead of Anri, who wisely slows her pach)

(Inside, the entire factory has been scuttled. Amidst the "victorious" Sith forces, walking about the loading floors Dust shipments are empty, the containers and machinery too heavy to lift, destroyed, while it's Regime and Atlas guards lay about dead. Caught off guard seemingly from the now collapsed tunnels dug right through the floor)

Sith Trooper: Its a mess Sirs. Looks like while we where fighting somebody decided a heist was in order.

Anri: Proper organized too. Jammed their interior comms so everything'd look peachy to the outside, and used heavy machinery to take anything not nailed down, then ransacked the place, so whoever won would be out a factory.

Malgus: Who... Dares!

Sith Tech: My Lord, we found this in the control room. (hands him a circular device) Its a pre-recorded message.


(Malgus actives the message. Hologram springs to life in his palm, showing a Human man with long white hair, stubble. Wearing an brown jacket with fur around the coller. His arms cross in satisfaction.)

Tyber Zann: To whomever it may concern, I am Tyber Zann, leader of the Zann Consortium. If your watching this message, no doubt you've seen what my forces did while you played your wargames. Normally I wouldn't flaunt my exploits so transparently.
But doing so, has allowed me further time to evade you while you've been staring slackjawed at this hologram. A fact that I am without a doubt smiling about, at this mom-

(Malgus crushes the device in his hands)

Malgus: Send out our fighters, send out everything! Find me this pirate, and him to me on his knees!

Sith Tech: Urrm. My Lord. Unknown ships where detected leaving the city a few minutes ago, but have since... Past... our sensor range.

Malgus: The pirate fleet escaped?

Sith Tech: We still have control of the city, and with a few repairs-

Malgus: (Grabs the Tech my the neck and lifts her up. Feet dangling in the air) The pirate fleet escaped!!

Anri: Best we leave boys!

(Faster then they arrived, the Sith forces abandon the poor tech to her fate)

Malgus: THE PIRATE FLEET ESCAPED!!!

(As the tech continues to choke in his grasp, Malgus brings up his other hand, Force lighting amassing and crackling before being shoved into his victims face. Their screams being heard throughout the factory and beyond its walls)

ELSEWHERE

(Tyber Zann is talking with an elegant woman with a steel gaze aboard a Mon Cala ship beneath the waves of Remnant)

Tyber Zann: I trust this Dust delivery erases any, unpleasantness, that our prior negotiaton attempt may have caused.

Leia: Its a start Zann. So long as neither the Regime or any of the Empire's get to rest easy, your Consortium can be considered an Ally. But don't push your luck.

Tyber Zann: Naturally. I didn't get into this business to make friends. Speaking of, I'd be cautious around Imperial forces. Looks like my old academy classmate, Thrawn is background in their ranks.

Leia: We've noticed. Tell me, was that the same Academy that got you kicked out for cheating? Or wait, sorry. That kicked you out for being *caught* cheating?

Tyber Zann: Can drive a hard bargain and knows how to get under a mans skin. Have you ever considered criminal enterprise, Princess?

Leia: Lando, any word back from Menagerie?

Lando: Yeah. Han told me our men there are getting plenty of visitors -- and from all over galactic history. Rebels, Republic, even some folks saying they're from the future. You name it, we're seeing them show.

Leia: (Smiles) Great. Then it's time we joined them. (Turns to the Mon Calamari in the command chair) Admiral, let's dry off.

Ackbar: Understood. Captain, at your pleasure.

(The MC80 Home One type Star Cruiser slowly rises out of the ocean, with a pair of MC80 Liberty types alongside it. As it takes to the skies, the three ships fall in with several others, including Venator-class Star Destroyers, Acclamator-class assault ships, Mon Cala ships of various types, Nebulon-B and C class frigates, Dreadnaught-class heavy cruisers, Mark I and II Assault Frigates, CR90 corvettes, DP20 frigates, Valor-class cruisers, Thranta-class corvettes, Free Virgillia-class Bunkerbusters, and Vakbeor-class cargo frigates. Fighters of varying eras and models accompany the combined fleet as they fly over Menagerie and begin to offload. Down below, Batman, Ghira, and Blake watch as Old Republic, Clone Wars Republic, Rebel, New Republic, and Resistance troops begin settling in)


Blake: (Amazed) Incredible. So many ships from so many eras.

Ghira: (Smiling proudly) All for one cause. To free Remnant from evil.

Batman: Here's hoping they're enough.

Blake: (Looks at him) Bruce, come on. With these many people on our side, the Regime and the interstellars invading Remnant don't stand a chance.

Batman: Don't underestimate Clark, Blake, or any of the other factions fighting here. All are strong opponents to face, even with these forces. Not to mention the matter of Salem. We need to go about this wisely.

Ghira: Batman is right, my child. We need to be cautious. Believing victory is assured is the easiest way to assure defeat instead.

Blake: (Sighs) Right.

Yoda: (Approaches) The wisdom of a Jedi, you have, Ghira Belladonna.

Ghira: (Looks down at Yoda) You flatter me, Master Yoda. How are your men settling in?

Yoda: Relaxed, Captain Rex's troops are. The respite, they are enjoying. (Looks over Kuo Kuana) Peaceful, this place is. Attuned with the light side of the Force. A true haven, I feel this place is.

Batman: Why do you think we chose Menagerie as our base of operations?

Yoda: (Looks at him and closes his eyes before chuckling and opening his eyes again) The appeal of Menagerie, clear to me, it is. But the people, free-spirited and tolerant, they are. Not like the Regime...or the Sith. (As he speaks, Han, Ben, and Obi-Wan emerge from the chieftain's residence)

Han: So not only are you alive now, but you've also got a younger twin?

Ben: So it would appear, Captain Solo. Or, is that General? I'm a touch confused.

Han: (Rolls his eyes) Just Han'll do.

Obi-Wan: I must admit, it's rather disconcerting hearing of my future demise. Vader strikes me down on this Death Star after that same station destroys a Core World like Alderaan? Our future sounds like a rather grim one.

Ben: Do not fear death, my younger self. When Vader strikes us down, we will become more powerful than he can possibly imagine.

Obi-Wan: I'll take your word for it. (They all look up as they see the Ebon Hawk and Millenium Falcon set down nearby. The group from the mountain emerges from the Hawk as Chewbacca, Leia, Lando, R2-D2, and C-3PO come out of the Falcon)

Han: (Beams as he notices his first mate) Chewie! (He jogs over to them)

Chewie: (Roars happily as he bearhugs Han)

Han: WHOA! (Groans as he speaks with strain) Take it easy, pal! I'm happy to see you too, but I need to breathe! (Chewie sets him down with an affirmative grunt)

3PO: Captain Solo, such a relief to see you well. (R2 beeps next to him) Of course, I mean it!

Lando: Good to see you're still kicking, ya old pirate. (They hug)

Han: You too, Lando. Thanks for looking after the Falcon for me. (He turns to Leia with a roguish grin) Miss me?

Leia: (Smirks as she approaches him) Not as much as I'm sure you missed me. (They bring each other in for a kiss)

Lando: (Shakes his head) Come on, guys. You promised you wouldn't third wheel me this early in the morning!

Chewie: (Laughs)

Lando: Ah, shut it, ya furball.

Ahsoka: (Approaches the group) Chewbacca?

Chewie: (Turns and looks at Ahsoka, roaring in joy as he recognizes the Togruta)

Ahsoka: (Laughs as she comes up to him and hugs him) I thought I recognized your presence! Good to see you, too!

Han: Friend of yours? (Chewie growls in confirmation. Han heads over to the padawan) Well, then, you're a friend of mine, kid.

Master Skywalker: Well, how about that. (The group turns to see him, Rey, Anakin, Revan, Meetra, HK, Luminara, and Aayla approach) Hey, Han. Leia. Chewie. Lando.

Leia: Luke?

3PO: Master Luke, is...is that really you?

Master Skywalker: One of 'em, but...yeah. I know what you're thinking -- I've let myself go with age. And you're not wrong. Doesn't mean I wanna hear you say it.

Ben: We've all aged rather poorly, I would think. (Luke looks at him and freezes) Hello there, my old student.

Luke: ...Ben. (Turns and sits at the Falcon's boarding ramp) Blast this damned time merging. I hate that you're able to see me like this.

Ben: (Approaches and sits next to Luke) You've lost your way. That's all. We simply need to help you find it again.

Luke: (Turns to look at Ben) ...I've missed you. (Ben smiles at that and places a hand on his former student's shoulder. Rey approaches Han)

Rey: And I've missed you, Han.

Han: (Looks at Rey confusedly) Erm...sorry, kid, but do I know you?

Rey: (Rubs the back of her head) Well, no, not yet, but --

???: But we do. (Rey and the others turn to look at an older Han and Leia, alongside a young dark-skinned human wearing a tan jacket over a white shirt, black pants, and black boots, and a Clone with a scar on his left temple and yellow markings on his armor. Han's older self speaks) Hey there, kid. (Rey beams and runs up to them, glomping Old Han. Old Han stumbles a bit before hugging her back)

Rey: (Cries tears of joy as she hugs Old Han before looking at the man and Leia) It's good to see you.

Finn: (Smiles) You too.

Leia: (She and Han exchanges glances before she shakes her head and speaks) Remind me not to get old...

General Organa: (Smirks) Oh, take my advice, honey, don't. It's a real pain. (Master Skywalker approaches)

Old Han: (Breaks the hug with Rey) ...hey.

Master Skywalker: ...hey.

General Organa: Ready to save the galaxy again?

Master Skywalker: If you are.

Old Han: (He and General Organa smile) Welcome back, pal. (Master Skywalker can't help but smile)

Obi-Wan: (Approaches the Clone) Good to see you, Cody. (Shakes his hand)

Cody: Rex filled me in, sir. Sounds like quite the mess we've gotten into.

Obi-Wan: No worse than that one time on Mimban.

Cody: (Chuckles) Yeah, well, there weren't two of you on Mimban. (Nods to Ben)

Obi-Wan: Fair point, there. Meshing time together makes things a little harder to keep track of.

Ben: (Comes up to them) I know it isn't ideal, Cody. But I'm happy to be able to call you my friend again.

Cody: (Raises an eyebrow) Er...what's that supposed to mean?

Ben: We'll sort that business out later. For now, it's good to reunite with old friends.

Blake: (Comes up to Oscar and Qrow) I suppose this time merging is good for something after all. Hello, Qrow.

Qrow: Hey, kid. (Drinks from his flask) Nice place you got here.

Oscar: (Ozpin) Greetings, my old student.

Blake: (Ears twitch as she looks at him) Sorry? "Old student?"

Qrow: Long story short, kid, this is Oz. Well...his reincarnated form anyway.

Blake: (Eyes widen as she looks at Qrow) Ozpin?! (She looks at Oscar) But...but how-?!

Oscar: (Ozpin) I understand your confusion, but I'll explain everything later. For now, however, know that I'm here to support you every step of the way.

Batman: (He and Ghira approach) I hate to break up this reunion, but we need to discuss our next move.

Leia: Right. Lando, get all the command staff together. It's time to start making some plays of our own in this war.

(Cut to the living room of the Belladonna residence as the Insurgency leadership and their galactic allies enter. Already in there is a group of three Jedi, a Nautolan, a Kel Dorian, and a human with skin color like Finn's, as well as Padmé and Rex)

Ahsoka: (Beams upon seeing the Kel Dor Jedi) Master Plo! (Runs up to him. He turns and hugs her as she gets close)

Plo Koon: Koh-too-yah, Little 'Soka.

Kit Fisto: (Smiles his trademark grin) Masters! Skywalker! So glad you could all make it to our little party!

Anakin: Good to see you, Master Fisto. How'd you--?

Blake: They arrived here shortly before you did, and they brought their troops with them.

Mace Windu: As pleased as I am to see you all, I believe we have a strategy to discuss. (The allied leadership gather in the spacious room)

Batman: Theron, Lana, give us some visuals. (The spies bring up a map of Remnant on a large computer console) As it stands, we face six different battles to fight. Anima is the most immediate front, with the Confederacy, First Order, and Regime all battling for control. On Sanus, we've got Regime forces fighting the Sith and Galactic Empires, and the Regime controlling the rest of the world besides Menagerie and the occupied areas.

Blake: Then there's Salem, the one controlling the black monsters you've all likely encountered. We need to stop all six and bring peace back to this world. Then we can go about finding a way to get you all back home to your original timelines.

Lando: Hold up. Timelines? As in, plural?

Han: Whatever caused this mess brought together all sorts of different timelines, Lando. There's a reason there's two of me here.

Mace: How do you know?

Han: Salem told us. Called it a reward for beating her forces when they attacked Menagerie a while back.

Lana: Why she bothered to tell any of us at all is a mystery, but it is something worth being aware of.

Kyle: Great. Like the fact we're taking on three different Empires and an army of droids wasn't bad enough...

Qrow: So where do we start?

Oscar: (Ozpin) Wherever we have clear access. Right now, I'm afraid Mistral is the only region within our reach.

Batman: Ozpin is right. We only control Menagerie, meaning we don't have the range the other factions do. Mistral is the closest target, so that's where we'll strike first -- against the Mistralian Regime, the Separatists, and the First Order. We'll start with the south half of the Anima, where the Separatist front is. I had two of my agents investigating the southern continent, but both have gone missing. We need whatever information they've gathered if we're going to figure out how best to move in on the area.

Lando: Straightforward rescue mission. Easy. Where did they do check-in from last?

Ghira: The Odessa Island shipping port. If they're alive, they'll likely still be there.

Blake: They're some of our best operatives. We can't afford to lose them. And that besides...they're both good friends of mine. I've lost too many others. I don't want to lose these two also.

Cody: I'll gather up the 212th. We should be able to--

Batman: No. If we send in an entire army for just two people, the Separatists will know we're up to something, not to mention the Regime. We'll need to send in a small team to infiltrate Odessa, find our people, and get out.

Blake: Anyone up for a mission like that?

Finn: (Raises his hand) I can do it. I've got experience getting into places I'm not supposed to be. Y'know, the kind of places they'll shoot you if they spot you.

Batman: Then you'll be the team leader. Find some men you trust and get ready to move.

Blake: You won't be going alone, though. I have some friends coming with you.

Finn: Who?

???: Us. (Finn and the rest of the allied leadership look to see a tan-skinned boy with short spiky light-blonde hair and a girl with brown hair and light brown skin, with several darker spots around her arms, legs, and face. The boy is wearing two red wrist bracers with Batman-like gauntlets of the same color attached over black fingerless gloves, blue cargo pants, yellow and black sneakers, and an open loose-collared white jacket with no shirt underneath, displaying his muscular physique. The girl is wearing a shirt with the Bat Symbol on its chest, a pair of gauntlets like Batman's, and shorts with simple black boots) Hey, all. Sorry if you didn't notice us. People tend not to.

Batman: This is Sun Wukong and Ilia Amitola. They're both masters of infiltration and know the area well. They're the perfect candidates to assist you on this mission.

Finn: Huh. Well, alright then. Everybody else, I'm gonna need around...let's say four of your best stealth experts.

Rex: You'll have them.

Revan: Be cautious. If the Separatists capture you, we'll have few viable candidates to send in after you.

Finn: I get it. We'll be careful. (Looks at Sun and Ilia) You guys ready?

Ilia: (She and Sun share smirks before looking back at Finn) Whenever you are.

7. UNLIKELY ALLIES 
----------
Sun Wukong and Ilia Amitola

(Cut to the Separatist-occupied city of Odessa, where battle droids march throughout the streets under the night sky. By the city's shipping port, a pair of droids march by on patrol. As they pass the loading dock, Sun peers out of a manhole belonging to a ship docked at the port. When the coast is clear, he puts his hands to his face and makes a bird call before climbing out of the manhole and dropping down onto the dock. Ilia and Finn slink off of the ship, followed by a female Rebel, a Clone, a Republic SIS agent, and a Resistance soldier. The group of seven stealthily make their way past droid patrols as they head up to the dock warehouse. The Clone waits for a droid to pass a corner before grabbing it, ripping its head off and setting the body down. The Rebel kneels and plugs a datapad into the droid's head, reading its databanks)

Rebel: Okay...according to this droid's memory core, any prisoners they have here are being kept at the local police precinct.

Sun: That's not too far. It's only a couple blocks from here.

Ilia: (Teasingly) Stayed there a few times, have you?

Sun: (Rolls his eyes) Ha, ha.

Finn: Does it say anything else?

Rebel: Yeah. Prisoner listing.

Sun: Search for the names "Ren" and "Valkyrie."

Rebel: (Does so) Ren...Valkyrie...Ren...Val--ah! Here! I got a match. Only two on the list with those names. They gotta be here.

Finn: Alright, here's the plan. Sun, Ilia, slip into the back of the precinct and find our people. We'll create a distraction and draw the droids away from you.

Ilia: You sure that's a good idea?

Finn: Don't worry. We won't go in guns blazing. We'll just do something to keep them off you guys long enough for you to slip in and grab Ren and Valkyrie.

Sun: Then we meet back here, grab a boat, and hightail it.

Finn: (Smirks) Exactly.

SIS Agent: (Looking around a corner) Patrol coming! We gotta move!

Finn: Meet you back here at the docks.

Ilia: Good luck.

(Ilia and Sun split away from the team, climbing onto the roof of the warehouse as their friends duck into the warehouse door. Cut to a scene of Sun and Ilia sneaking through an alley as they make their way towards the precinct. Ilia motions for Sun to provide rooftop cover, to which the monkey Faunus complies, hopping from wall to wall until he reaches the rooftop. He keeps pace with Ilia as they duck past droid patrols and move from alley to alley towards the precinct. Ilia reaches an alley only a block away from the precinct, turning a black shade to blend in as she sneaks over to the adjacent road. She peers around the corner, seeing a tank-led droid patrol turn a corner onto another street, disappearing from view. She backs into the alley, cautious about moving. Behind her, however, a black-gloved hand rises up, twirling a WESTAR-34 pistol before pointing it at her head. The sound of the gun cocking makes Ilia pause as she hears a cold voice speak behind her)

???: You're no Separatist. And I'm not one for believing in coincidences. So how's about you tell me who you are and what the hell you're up to?

(Ilia turns around to see the man shadowing her is a man wearing a blue and silver set of armor, with plates guarding his shoulders, chest, thighs, knees, shins, and feet. He wears a helmet painted the same color as his armor, with a t-shaped visor and a rangefinder on its right. He wears a belt with several leather brown pouches attached to it. Attached to his armor's codpiece is a holster rigging, with two blaster holsters on either side -- both obviously for the WESTAR-34 pistols he holds in his hands, one of which is aimed at Ilia. His most notable feature, however, is the Merr-Sonn JT-12 jetpack on his back)

Ilia: (Slowly raises her hands) Well...since you asked so nicely...

(She shuts her palm, giving a signal to Sun, who drops down behind the armored man and hits him with Ruyi Bang and Jingu Bang in staff form. The blow knocks the man down and causes him to let out a wild shot with one of his pistols. He falls to his knees before kicking at Sun's shin, rolling around onto his back, and firing at the monkey Faunus. Sun manages to block the blasts with his staff long enough for Ilia to pick him up and slam him against the wall. He slams his foot into hers and elbows into her stomach before trying to shoot her with his pistols. Ilia locks up with his hands, and they struggle for a second before the man drops back and judo flips her to Sun. She lands on her feet and turns to face the man with Sun and he jumps to his own feet and turns to face them, spinning his pistols as he aims them at them)

Sun: Sorry, pal. Can't have you reporting us to your droid friends.

Ilia: Who are you?

Jango: The name's Jango Fett. And the droids are no friends of mine. I'm here for an associate of mine. Paying her back a favor. And if you two kids know what's good for you, you'll stay out of my way.

Battle Droid 1: I'm telling you, I heard something. (The trio hear them from around the corner. Jango ducks into a side alley as the Faunus give chase)

Battle Droid 2: I didn't hear a thing. Your audio receptors must be faulty. (They look around the corner. The three intruders are gone) See? Nothing there!

(The Faunus head down the side alley after Jango, only for Sun to catch his fist in his face as they pass the corner, stumbling back into Ilia. They stagger before catching themselves and staring the bounty hunter down)

Jango: Not sure what part of "stay out of my way" didn't click with you.

Ilia: Look, we're looking for some friends of ours, too. The Separatists are probably keeping them and your friend in the same place.

Sun: Yeah, we can help each other.

Jango: I don't need help. Especially not from a pair of street punks. And if you two insist on botching up my job... (twirls his pistols and aims them at the Insurgents) ...then I have no qualms about what I do next.

CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER
SUN <--- LS ---> ILIA

-----------

Hey, just reposting this with some added changes.

As a reminder, Jango here is trying to break out Zam Wessel after she got caught trying to steal the schematics for a Dust-powered battle droid model to sell off to the highest bidder. At the precinct, they find Adam Taurus negotiating with Grievous as the cybernetic Montross provides security. The Separatists are trying to broker an alliance with the White Fang by trading Blake's friends over to Adam. Remnant becomes a Confederate World, and the White Fang governs it. That's when Finn's distraction kicks in, drawing Grievous away, and Sun, Ilia, and Jango break in, leading to Sun and Ilia fighting Adam, Montross, and their men. Feel free to take it in any direction you prefer.
