The Com's first strikes.

[palpatine]

Somewhere in space close to Courasant.
Empire/ Palpatine

An imperial star destroyer class 1 hovers in the void of space. On board Captain Franz was waiting for a few things, one of those he had chased here, a Viscount Star Defender also known as the Ray Quasar. The others were any of the other organizations that were floating about including to splinter fractions of the Rhen Varian Union, a powerful fraction of the New Republic. However before he had a chance to scan any of the area his first officer appeared.

"Sir, you have an audio message."

"I'll take it here."

{You are trespassing, leave now.}
The message was clear, but the Captain was determined to find out it was.

"Speak Mathias, I know it is you."

A screen came on showing a face. The man on the screen had one eye showing and the other covered in a gold object, a scar was centered on his forehead, and his skin looked stretched over his skull. The crew was frightened as this was the one and only Commander Palpatine, the leader of the Rhen Varian Union and The most feared and respected man in the galaxy.

"So, we meet Palpatine, shame it will your last."

"I doubt it will be my last. It may be your last."

The first officer on the Destroyer. "Sir, the Commander has to be close, but our radar shows nothing and there isn't a planet in sight.

"Show yourself Commander."

The space in front of the ship began to a shape. Five terrifying minutes later, the shape was clear. The Dementor, a midnight blue murdering machine. The Dementor opened fire on the destroyer and blew it up before the Com spoke again.

"Cobaryn, this Commander Palpatine, I have a job for you. I want you to pick up the imperial junkyard, then R&D with Mathias over Mustifar, give the junkyard to him, then proceed to capture the ARC Hammer, then take it the Star Forge and hold that position till I catch up. Clear?"

He then closes that communication and calls a friend of his.

"General Grievous, I want you drop an At-te in that fortress on Kashyyyk, then deploy that base I stored on the Invisible Hand, then take that outlying hanger on Polis Massa and hold it till I get there."

"Yes Commander."

"This is going to be good."

[Aldrant Trienay]

Cobaryn receives a message from Palpatine and shakes his head in disgust, this was a star destroyer, not a garbage barge. Even though he hated this idea with such passion, but knows if he doesn't, his career is toast. He finally gives the order to head to the junkyard. They use one tractor emitor to grab hold of a barge, and then proceed to teleport all non volatile materials. Then the rest is tractored into the barge, and radios Palpatine that they had everything, and didn't see any annoying tie fighters, if their were any, they were most likely crushed as they entered the system,m... oh well.

[palpatine]

Mustifar
Maithas

"Cobaryn, this is Maithas speaking, just drop the ships off next the open hanger bay on my ship, I will make sure that no-one is around here."

Maithas heads off in his starfighter to the surface and lands on a platform near the droid factory. He then is met by Gizor Delso the leader of the droid forces of the planet. He was then escorted to a council room where they were schuleded to meet.

"What is your propostion green man?"

"I speak for Commander Palpatine. We offer you a chance to join the Rhen Varian Union."

"We refuse."

The Com walks into the room.

"perhaps I can change that."

"Com."

"I believe that I have not made my point clear to both of you fools. I will not ally with the red and green men."

The Com's eyes narrow til they are barely visible. As he spoke he was obviously refraining from pulling a gun to the Geonosian.

"Listen carefully. I assure you, I am the only one who can protect your life from Jack. Also if you don't ally with me, you run the risk of me termating you and putting someone in charge who will ally with me. Savvy."

"I like you Com, you speak your mind. (smiles) I will ally with you."

Maithas leaves in rush to catch up the Com.

"What was that."

"I gave him my reasons and he belived me."

"You are going to get killed for this someday."

"Mathais a peice of wisdom, Warlords like me come and go, Pacifistts like you stay forever."

The Com gets into the Needle and heads to the Dementor. It had been a fun morning. Maithas watches the Dementor leave for who knows where. He hoped Cobaryn would show up soon.

[Aldrant Trienay]

Cobaryn just dropped out of hyperspace right as the needle was exiting the outer atmosphere, he let go of the barge, and let it sit, while he teleported everything else into the open hanger bay, for they'd worked on getting rid of all toxins while they were in flight. Cobaryn now pulled up next to the dementor, and was just curios to hear whatever orders the Com might have for him.

[palpatine]

Mustifar
Maithas

"Cobaryn, This is Maithas, you are to proceed to capture the ARC Hammer, then take it the Star Forge and hold that position till Com, catches up?"

Yavin V
Palpatine

The Com left the Dementor in orbit over Yavin V and took the Needle down to the Jedi Academy there. He then proceeded to land on a plateau 4 miles away and called the master there, Luke Skywalker.

"Hello, Skywalker here."

"Luke, this is Commander Palpatine. I am here to visit. Do you mind if I land in the Temple hanger?"

"We'll be waiting Com."

The Com then lifted off and followed the forest until he landed in the temple. upon exiting the craft he was greeted by the Skywalkers and several children of different species.

"Com good to see you after all these years."

"I see that the force is strong in you, your wife, and these younglings."

Several children bristled at the statement and two in particular were especially unhappy. These children were the Jacen and Jaina Solo. Skywalker showed the Com the building, with several of the children along. Finally they reached the dueling room. There some of the children asked Luke a question.

"Master, could we challenge the Com to show our skills?"

After much thought by Luke, he turned to the Com.

"You have any problems with that?"

"No issues there."

Jaina and Jacen were the leaders of the 15 kids that chose to battle the Com, all figuring that numbers would win. It was not to be. The first ten were removed by the Com simply moving his arm back while they closed in then, swung across his body in a forward motion knocking sabers out of hands. He removed three more in the same fashion. Jaina moved in to battle by herself, but Palpatine had a trick in store for her too. He lept up and landed his saber on top hers hard enough that the saber was forced to the floor taking her with it. Palpatine only felt a slight shock, but it almost broke her elbow and wrist. He beat Jacen the same way, then healed all the children through a healing art. Jaina then tugged on the Com's sleeve indicating that she wanted him to follow. Luke also came along. After short jog which included the Com leaping over a banister and landing on the ground before Jaina, the three reached the hanger and Jaina led them over to her private workshop, which held one ship, an LATT-V. The was lightly shocked.

"Tell me, where did you come across this?"

"On a mission. I'm trying to find out how the vessel works."

"I'll be happy to show you."

Palpatine showed her how to control the ship, then had her take it out for a test drive. She was quickly scared by how the ship reacted. Then a wing of TIE Fighters showed up and Jaina let Palpatine show her how to Dogfight.

Conflict:	battle over the academy
Date:	25 ABY
Place:	Over the Jedi Academy
Combatants	Empire	Jedi with Palpatine
Commanders	Unknown	Commander Palpatine
Strength	• 12 TIEs	• 1 LATT-V

The Com turned the vessel and dove toward the ground, then at the last second he pulled up and 11 ties crashed. He then turned around and attacked the last TIE from behind. The results were painful for the Empire

Strength	• 12 TIEs	• 1 LATT-V
Casualties	• 12 TIEs †	• 1 LATT-V

The Com left Jaina at the temple. Luke gave the LATT-V to Palpatine and he had the droid on the Needle follow the ship all the way to the Dementor. They then left the system.

[Aldrant Trienay]

Got it Matthias.

After this, he headed off did what must be done, and then headed back.

[palpatine]

Nihilus walks into the Com's office on the Dementor with news. "Im tel nam bek tam. (I have news.) Tak mar yuy qou lune & Sole. (we have spotted the Lunar and the Solar.)"

"We will deal with the Lunar first. However we need to meet up with Cobaryn when he finds the Forge. However we need to deal with the threat to the Wookies, as they make good gernade lauchers for us."

The Dementor headed off to Kashyyyk.

[Aldrant Trienay]

Upon Cobaryn's return, he Immediately hailed the Com, and asked him to arrange a meeting between them to deposit the goods.

[palpatine]

Over Kashyyyk
Palpatine

Grevious walks in, "You have a message."

"Not now, General."

"It's from Cobaryn, He wants to know, where the two of you can meet so he can get rid of the Star Forge and the ARC Hammer. Also some Tof Activity has been spotted near a planet owned by a Mr. Barnithet."

"I'll take the call, the Tof are next, after this battle."

"I'll have him put through."

"Cobaryn, meet me at Kashyyyk. I think that you can be of a help to me. Grevious, I want to know if anything is happening with Lunar."

K'krunk walks in, "Com, we have spotted Tyber Zann headed for Courasant."

"So what."

"Com, it could be for Lunar.

"Keep an eye on him."

"Yes, Com."

Palpatine leaves his office and heads to the hanger bay where troops are filing into a C-9979. He then headed to the bridge with his team in tow. At the same time the Tof began to launch fighters while their two ships remained out of sight.

[Aldrant Trienay]

After Cobaryn got the message, he told his helm officer to get to wherever Palpatine was, and follow his ship. After all of this, he headed to the Mess for a snack.

[Uiluan Trilar]

Tarim (GOW controlled planet)
Harry Barnithet

"Sir, scouts have reported a Tof fleet slowly approaching," said Travis Terian, Harry's second in command.

"Tof? Interesting, why us?........Send word to Gia, (name of GOW mobile starbase) I will be docking in twenty minutes. Tell them to prepare the fleet for battle."

"Yes, sir."

Travis left the room to deliver the message. Harry stared thoughtfully at the wall, then slowly got up and left the room to get his fighter.

[palpatine]

Palpatine stares as the C-9979 landed inside the well defended compound. His At-te sat just outside the compound and he was ready to fight the imperials till the left the planet alone. However, upon having conversation with the wookie scout leader, things took a turn for the worse.

"The C.O.R.O.K.H. has landed." He pointed to the map.


Palpatine then walked out to the wooden barricade the wookies had put together and also saw the imperial stormtroopers sitting in their bunkers. Then a massive box on legs dropped in. The vessel was at least 4,000 meters long. Palpatine angrily called up Cotais, the captain of the Dementor.

"What in the name of death is this?"

"No clue."

"Where is it from, or is there an imperial vessel in the area?"

"No vessels in the area, but I do have this bit of news. It was launched from the Solar."

[Aldrant Trienay]

Cobaryn hailed Palpatine, asking for further instructions.

[palpatine]

"Cobaryn we need you to block off all routes to Kashyyyk so the Empire can't get in, let alone the C.O.R.O.K.H. Any Questions?"

Greivous walks up to the rampart with the newest map in his hand. "Things ain't getting prettier Palpatine."



"Agreed, the empire has at least 40 troops in each of the bunker areas, and that large box thing is making 3 AT-ATs by the hour, and who knows what Jack has up his sleve."

"Probably Lobsters and Crabs."

"We can deal with the crab walkers, but we would need a jugurnaut to deal with the Lobsters."

"I agree Commander, but what is the chance that Jack won't send the Lobsters after the box."

The Commander produces what looks like a smirk, but is in reality a genuine smile coming from him.

"That would be fun. Battle I guess will begin at daylight."

"Agreed."

Greivous leaves and Palpatine turns around and heads to his command platform, He had a plan to make.

[Aldrant Trienay]

Cobaryn sent his fleet to monitor all paths to Kashyk, to make sure no one could get through and then sent his own ship off to do the same.
