Fate Of The Sith

I woke up in a mood. Ever since I had joined the Siths my life had been strained. Knowing my mere existence was expendable, I fought daily to be part of the Imperial Navy. However, I had soon found myself reduced to struggle to survive another day.

But I had survived the ordeal and became stronger. Since then I had been commanding this cohort, no matter how ridiculously small it could be.

Pulling myself up from the bed I put on a new uniform left by my side, the stiff cloth stifling for the first time in my life. I would have to change the design, though, perhaps add some darker more comfortable colours.

After making myself presentable. I left my room and took a stroll through the castle. Power lines sprawled past and across nearly every room bundled into the halls as Engineers made the castle more hospitable by the second.

“Captan, we have a problem.” I turned slowly to see a trooper in full armor, his equine face masked by his helmet.

“I hope you don’t waste my time Trooper, go on.” Watching the trooper squirm under my harsh mood filled me with a glee I hid. The peon knew his place.

“The Mandalorian went out on her own to scout around the local area and has yet to report back.” I cut him off with a raised hoof and turned away.

“I will deal with it, go back to your post.” I heard the sound of scampering as the stallion ran away.

Opening the armory door with my override code was an easy task, the room had served to store racks of swords and rows of spears laying across, abandoned. I even spotted some autochtone weapons. I picked up two sidearms. One sacrificed its battery life for a high power while its sister did the exact opposite. Two deadly twins in whatever battle was to come.

Holstering the weapons with little grace I rolled my neck and thought back to my days at the academy, besides the bullying and the abuses for being a Uni-Twi'lek i did in fact learn quite a bit. I had taught myself the basis of survival and my scarce leisure time had been spent shooting on the range, making me quite the markswoman. Yet, not that much of my current knowledge would help me in this new body. Against all odds, I was still confident in my capacity to adapt.

I put a few more battery packs into my uniform and was about to make my way out when there was a faint sigh from behind me, turning confused I blinked and examined the wall that made that sound before turning to leave.

Stalking through the dense forest alone on a spontaneous whim was not something that I considered smart. I thought back to what had made me go alone to check up on the mandalorian but the more I considered it the less it sounded like a prudent move.

A break in the treeline cut short my musings and I trotted out onto a wide field of green grass, the sun high overhead gave the world a vibrant look, it was certainly the most beautiful planet I had ever been too.

Walking towards a small settlement I passed what appeared to be a local garden, there were some equines walking amongst the trees and plants showing that whatever had changed my crew and I into what we had become did so in order for us to fit in, something I noted I was doing poorly as the equines around me where naked and started to look at me with interest.

“Hey nice duds!!” turning my head to the side I noted a female equine with a striking blue mane wave at me. She was lounging on a bench soaking up the sunshine as I waved back trotting over.

“Hello, could you direct me to a local terminal?” I asked casually to not arouse suspicion.

“T-the what? Names Vinyl Scratch by the way.” she held her hoof out as if to shake mine “Nice to meet ya.”

“Arimita Desyanti, Its a pleasure.” I bumped my hoof to hers in the hopes it would satisfy her as she blinked.

“What is that Saddle Arabian?” I shook my head.

“Close... So is there a local... Public Information center?”

“Well there is the library, the Unicorn who runs the place has that Sexy Librarian attitude down, you just gotta meet her!”

“Well could show me where the Library is?”

“Sure thing sugar~” she winked at me as she got to her hooves “follow me”

“-So after that Redheart takes the empty can of whipped cream an- Oh! here we are!” I looked up at the large.. tree?

“Thats a tree...”

“Yes it is”

“This mare would not happen to be a wookie would she?”

“What?”

“Nevermind” pushing into the treehouse i took a look around the wide room before me, books lined on each and every shelf a testament to the low technological prowess of the inhabitants of this world.

“How... Rustic”

“Thank you, now i have some reading to do...”

One hundred miles away and over a mile down in the earth two sisters trot side by side as they enter a room that is on no map.

“I can’t believe it has come to this, how to we breach it to the others?” the younger asked

“We talk with honesty, it is the only way, this is an interesting problem, and i fear it may lead to diplomatic problems.”

“With who? the griffins?”

“No my sister, an extraterrestrial race has landed in equestria, that will not only make some uncomfortable but will also make them afraid that we have access to the technology and powers they bring”

“I dislike this League of nations nonsense we are forced to commune with” the Sisters of the sun and moon entered a squat room with runes carved into the exposed stone, there were two gems in place, one a dark purple and the other a bright green.

“The League Of Nations has prevented war for over one thousand years” Putting her hoof to the Green gem the older sister sighed “but the negotiations are always trying”

Following her sisters lead the younger placed her hoof to the purple one and at once the room expanded as if the walls where  running away from the sisters, they now sat at a round table many meters across surrounded by a wide circle of desks sitting diplomats and leaders from smaller nations, every race was sat watching and waiting, a few were talking amongst themselves no doubt making deals and alliances.

The Princesses of Equestria where the last ones to join.

“Thank you for joining us Celestia, Luna” a well dressed Zebra smiled his stunning smile and turned to the rest of the room “The League of nations is now in session, all of you will be locked to this pocket dimension until matters have been resolved, now firstly there was an incident with the Griffin Kingdom and the sovereign state of Dave about-”

“I am sorry to interrupt but we have news that may redefine how we look at the universe, and it is an incredibly dangerous piece of information.” There was a pause as the delegates from each nation looked at each other.

“Please enlighten us Celestia” An older looking Zebra mare smiled softly.

“We are not alone in the universe”

The Republic ship found itself temporarily without a crew just like the Sith ship before it, now while both ships are perfectly capable of traveling without constant intervention from the crew itself traveling in hyperspace with what was a crack human pilot turned unicorn sprawled across its navigation systems was a bad idea, however just like the sith ship the software onboard could calculate where it was automaticly and make small adjustments to its direction, well it would be able to if not for said unicorns horn pressing down on the manual starmap generator for use when the software fails, the CPU power required to calculate a new starmap every second took almost all of the processing power away from the ships computer.

It was the tiny amount that the computer had that allowed the sluggish ship to save itself.

As it listed on its foreship turning slightly at speeds that threatened to crumple the ship and kill the crew before they awakened it was a miracle that just before the stress would have created two new smaller ships out of one the hyperplane ended.

With a groan the entire crew was thrown forward breaking the neck of one unfortunate Doctor instantly.

It was then that he woke up groaning in pain and rubbing a hoof to his head, now sporting a large red mark soon to be a bruise.

“Ship systems in critical condition, fire response teams required in the bridge” the calm voice of the ship computer used its pre recorded messages to inform the crew of problems, it was not a computer that could be devious, or clever or ever even come up with an original idea, it was a computer that could calculate the entire Coruscant archives in just under a month.

When this unimaginative tool of a computer came into contact with this universe it suddenly had more data to process then it could handle in a million years, this was not information about troop movements or navigation charts, it was not even data that could be recorded with its sensors.

No this data was a gift, and the computer did the only thing it could to speed up the processing of the new data, it began to add some of the packets to its subroutines sacrificing its immense processing power to use the data as best it could.

And for the first time the computer examined the equine on its sensor's that was once a jedi master and wondered how such a thing could possibly happen.

Corporal Silos could count the amount of times he had been on guard duty on one hand, that was if he had hands, however he could still count the amount of times with a single hoof!

Once

He had been on guard duty once, that once was now.

“This is the dullest day of my entire life, I can feel my life draining from my body through sheer boredom” He kicked his legs one by one to keep the blood flowing.

“Stop moaning, its not that bad, fresh food growing, a forest that is nice and sunny, no republic troops in this system, look on the bright side” Corporal Hawk sat on a low broken wall playing with her rifle as she stretched her new wings out behind her feeling the warm sun on her back with a happy flutter.

“But why can't we do something that does not cause my brain to melt from sheer boredom” Hawk rolled her eyes.

“You sound like new blood with all your drama, look if a beast comes out of the forest you get the first few shots okay?”

“I hate the new harness, takes the fun out of shooting for me” he rolled his shoulders displacing the rifle strapped to his armor giving the quadruped a way of shooting his rifle that did not require a now uncomfortable position”

“Hay the harness has given the greens a way better average score at the range!” she tuned blinking as a Engineer trotted past them and started putting up lights around the rope bridge leading out of the castle.

“Yes but its messed my score up, not used to it”

Hawk turned to respond as she saw a butter yellow flash in the woods, pausing she turned and squinted ”hay you see that?”

However the colt did not see it and the pair spent the rest of the day guarding the bridge before going to sleep.
