(A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.)

(Space Battle over Kashyyyk)

The battle around me was furious as multiple Separatist fighters streaked at me and my squadron of Republic Arc-170 starfighters known as "Green Squadron". Our mission was to bring down one of the final Separatist fleets over Kashyyyk, My Master and I just so happen to have been chosen to lead the mission. I am Eric Keteris, Jedi Knight of the Jedi Order and I had a great master to learn from and his name was Athan Charrel. I couldn't have thought to have a better Jedi to fight along side with, except perhaps Masters Skywalker and Kenobi. Anyways, being that he found and taught me throughout my entire Jedi training only gave me the perspective to be just like him, maybe better.

"Alright boys, you know the drill, Destroy this fleet to free Kashyyyk. Lets see if we can break the record to destroy this fleet quicker." I said with competition in my voice. I remembered that it didn't take too long to destroy the last enemy fleet over Mygeeto. However, My wise master tends to restrain me a bit.

"Now Eric, Lets not get too ahead of ourselves. You still tend to be a bit of a hotshot when it comes to flying." Athan spoke with his wisdom voice.

"Yeah that's right, we'll need to leave you some since you take too long." I joked.

"Very funny." He replied with his sarcasm as we raced in to the fight and taking down any fighters that challenged us.

Even though I like to be in the heat of the action, I respected highly of Athan and what ever advice he provides. As I sped up my Eta-2 Actis class interceptor to meet with and follow him in our usual plan, Destroying the bridge and engines on the flagship while the rest of the squadron distracts the enemy fighters. "You ready, Master?" I asked over my headset and looking at his ship on my port side.

"More than I'll ever be." He replied as we both opened up our throttles and with our blasters to annihilate the control center as we flew around the burning structure to dive in on the engines and opened up once more as they exploded out of service. The Y-wing bombers would now dive on the crippled vessel and deliver proton bombs to make quick work of the doomed ship.

"Whoo, never gets old." I said with excitement. Looking back at the burning Separatist ship.

"I agree, now lets pick off the remaining fighters and return to the ship." Athan said as we both dove on enemies. We began our attacks, shaking the droid fighters off our squadron's tails and to assist our allies, However I got a cold feeling brewing through my mind, a sense in the Force. My master then spoke to me.

"I felt a disturbance in the force as if many Jedi are being wiped out."

"I felt it too Master, but what are you talking about?" I asked looking concerned and confused.

"Something is not right. We need to return to the ship now." Athan said as we headed for our Venator class Cruiser. Just as we were nearing the ship, Athan's theory was correct as a swarm of our allied Arc-170 Starfighters formed up behind us. Just then a transmission came in that I somehow intercepted. It showed a man in a dark cloak and looked like Chancellor Palpatine. His voice was low and raspy as he then spoke only three words.

"Execute Order 66."

The transmission ended and before I could think, The starfighters began to open fire upon me and my Master. We began evading and maneuvering the fire to shake them, but these men were one of the finest pilots I ever fought beside. Doing a quick snap roll, my starfighter responded quickly as I reversed my direction, giving me a chance and as much as I didn't want to, I fired on some of the Arc-170s and zoomed off quickly as I tried to help my master, who was in danger with 3 fighters on his six o clock.

"Master I'm moving in to assist you." I said just before I could setup my attack, he quickly replied.

"Negative, You need to go NOW!"

"Not without you, master." I said defiantly. The thought of losing my master is devastating to even think about.

"Please, You need to go and hide on some system they wouldn't think to look, Remember my young Padawan, The Force be with you always." Athan said calmly as I looked on to see the Arc-170s pummel my Master's starfighter until it exploded into a fireball.

I felt brokenhearted that my master was killed, but now wasn't the time to feel bad, I had to get out quickly as some Arc-170s began to move in to attack me. I saw that if the droids could attack the Arcs, I could have a chance to escape. I started to batch-weave through some surviving Separatist ships, which continued to pummel the Republic cruisers and other vulture droids were trained on the Arc-170s, which were either shot down or broke off their attack from me.

"I need to get out of here, but where to go?" I pondered my mind for any systems until I decided to just type one in. It was dangerous to just type in some random coordinates into the Navicomputer. You could crash into a star, a planet, a moon, or an asteroid.

I quickly began to type in some random coordinates to a system in hopes to escape. Before I could finish, I was hit by an Arc-170 that was still on my tail and my left engine began to fail. I quickly made an evasive maneuver that caused him to overshoot and fired upon him as payback to my fallen master. I then punched the jump to hyperspace and left the Kashyyyk system and the battle with it.

A wave of relief crashed on me, which was then replaced with sadness that I have lost my master to the traitors of the Republic. The soldiers we fought beside for years turned and betray us out of nowhere was uncomprehending. For all I know, almost every Jedi in the galaxy could be dead by the clones and that man in the black cloak on the transmission could be leading them all. While all these thoughts floated in my mind, My ship had just exited hyperspace and a small planet was visible. An atmospheric terrestrial planet with continents and oceans, a moon in orbit and hosts life being at a right distance from its sun. With the damage I've sustained, It was my only place to land safely. Taking the ship down closer to the planet, It seemed to be teeming with life and it didn't look familiar from all the star maps I've seen throughout the galaxy.

"Well, At least I know no Separatist fleets have been here." I said with relief and proceeded to the life-filled planet.

Entering the planet's atmosphere, My starfighter's stabilizer had failed, which caused an explosion on the left wing. It became difficult now to control the ship as it was now caught from the planet's gravity. The ship was engulfed in flames as I entered and fell faster when gravity started to act on the fighter as my other engines now begun fail.

"This is not great." I thought I I tried to regain control of the fighter, but I was going too fast and soon the surface was rapidly approaching. Pulling hard back on the stick, the ship's front was slow to respond, but it was raised high enough to avoid slamming into the ground and exploding. I then crash landed in some dense forest.

My face smacked against the panel as the starfighter skidded along the ground at an extreme speed, cutting down trees that were in the way and scaring off animals until the ship finally grinds to a halt. Smoke and fire emit from my now wrecked ship and the front seemed to dip into the ground, but not by much. I slowly recovered from my face-plant the force wasn't too hard to do any real damage, but it still hurt a lot. I opened up the canopy and stepped on the ground of this new world. The forest looked dark and dense, sunlight hardly pierced the treetop cover making it seem as if it was night all the time.

"What is this place? I don't recall this planet on a map from what I've seen?" I asked myself looking around the forest and
went into the cockpit to grab the 3 items I had in the ship; My lightsaber, My DL-18 blaster pistol, and a pendant my mother gave me before I left to become a Jedi. It was known that Jedi don't really use blasters, but I've been secretly training with the clones if I ever was in a situation where a blaster could save my life.

Packing my weapons in their holsters and my pendant in my pocket, I started to survey the damage of my starfighter, Upon examination through the burn marks from the entry in the atmosphere, the engines and stabilizers were damaged from the skirmish. Along with the weapons system being offline and the navicomputer fried from the crash. Having no tools or anything to repair the ship, the next thing I needed to do was find some kind of civilization or colony to gather the tools I required. I guess the only way to know is to go and find out for myself, but It whether it was the dim sunlight or not, it was getting late.

"I might as well set up camp for the night. Then I'll go and gather what I need first thing in the morning." I said to myself as I went to gather some firewood.

(Golden Oaks Library, Ponyville)

As Twilight, Spike, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie were dusting off some books from the shelves in the library. Tedious as it might be, Twilight's friends knew how much she cared for her love of books and don't mind helping her keep them in good condition. "Thank you all again for helping me take care of these books." Twilight said, looking back at her friends and smiled.

"It's not a problem darling" Rarity replied feather dusting one book. Then all of a sudden, the door burst open. The ponies screamed from the unexpected surprise and saw that standing in front of them was there athletic friend Rainbow Dash looking very exhausted from how fast she came in.

"Woah Hello Rainbow, what`s the rush?" Twilight asks curiously and startled from her abrupt entry.

"Yeah, yah look like yah saw some ghost?" Applejack added. The others looked in worry from Rainbow's heaving breathing.

Rainbow Dash had some trouble getting words out, but once she calmed down a little, she explained to the others what she had seen.

"Something fast came out of nowhere and crashed into the Everfree Forest, it appeared as some small bird but was smoking from behind. It was like nothing I've ever seen." Her friends were puzzled and equally concerned about what they heard.

"Are you sure it was a bird, the poor thing must be hurt." Fluttershy said with a little sadness.

"No, it was not a bird, it looked like one but it didn't flap its wings." Rainbow pointed out which left Fluttershy relieved, but gained interest from Twilight, who was mentally contemplating about it.

"Maybe it was a UFO from space." Pinkie sprang out and smiled.

"Now that's ridiculous, there is nothing in the wide world of Equestria that an alien of some kind would just.." Rarity said before getting cut off.

"Actually Rarity, there could be a possibility and I for one want to see and study it, maybe it is friendly." Twilight said with a smile forming. "Then this could mean I will be the first pony to discover a new species beyond Equestria!" She beamed at the possibilities and making her mentor, Princess Celestia very proud.

"So what are we waiting for, lets find this thing and see what it wants." Rainbow said determined to locate this offworlder.

"Fine, but if it ain't too friendly, we send it back ta where it came from." Applejack said as the ponies headed off on their adventure to the Everfree Forest to find the alien.

(Eric`s POV)

With my camp set up near my wrecked starfighter, I was eating some of the berries I forged earlier while sitting next to the fire. As I was eating some of the berries, it was quite dark out with an occasional wolf howl from within the forest and I began thinking of how the clones would betray us after years of working together.

"It just doesn`t seem right, why would they suddenly turn on us?" I thought when a bush rustled from nearby with a few voices. I readied my blaster in case things got out of hand and asked.

"Who's there, show yourself!"

Then a purple pony as high as my abdomen approached me followed by five others. The purple one was the first to speak.

"Hello there, can you understand me?"

I wasnt surprised that equines can speak since most of the planets Ive been had aliens could talk so I wouldn't be freaking out.

"I understand you clearly, Are you inhabitants of this planet?" I asked.

"We are and if I may ask, what are you and whats that thing over there?" She motions my starfighter.

"I am Eric Keteris, Jedi Knight of the Republic." I replied and extended my hand. Twilight seemed to hesitate at first but takes my hand and we both shook.

"So what in the hay is a Jed-." The orange pony asked before she was cut off by a sound of snarls from nearby. I looked around and saw a few eyes appear and emerging toward the camp was a wolf-like creature made of wood and a Lion, Scorpion, and Bat creature. With faces that defined predators I saw the ponies terrified expressions with fear that then changed to battle-ready.

A large wolf pounced first toward the ponies, but exploded as the purple unicorn shot a beam toward it. I was quite impressed, but there was still three more wolves and three more of the lion-scorpion-bat creatures to deal with. "What are these things?" I asked.

"Manticores and Timberwolves, very violent and aggressive creatures that live here." The Rainbow pegasus replied while kicking a manticore in its face.

Then the yellow pegasus was flanked by two Timberwolves and were ready to pounce as I used the force to stop them in mid air and force them to collide with one another, which resulted them to explode into splinters.

"How in Equestria were you able to do that?" The white pony asked.

"I`d like to tell you, but perhaps in a better environment, when this little skirmish is over." I brought up a good point and the ponies nodded and another five Timberwolves appeared. I then decided to pull out my blaster pistol and fired two rounds at an incoming Manticore in its face, which caused it to die.

The ponies were fought off the Timberwolves until they were nothing but woodchips as I dealt with the last Manticore by firing a single shot in its head. But as the battle seemed to be over a large Timberwolf emerged to the fight and was obvious that he was the Alpha due to some scratches and scars on his body. It roared loudly at me in particularly and seemed to be focused on me.

"So you want to go, fine Lets dance toothpick." I said as I fired a few rounds from my blaster, which did little to no damage and only left blast marks where I hit. The Alpha roared once more and with a quick swipe it knocked my blaster out of my hand and sent me tumbling to the ground. The ponies gasped as it seemed to have hurt. It did but it wasn`t enough to keep me down for long.

I got up slowly to pulled out my lightsaber and activate it with a blue blade. I got in my battle stance awaiting the wolf`s attack with a stern look. The Alpha howled and lunged at me for a pounce, I quickly jumped in the air and landed on his back where I jabbed my lightsaber inside of it. The Alpha howled in pain and tried to shake me off, but I pulled out my lightsaber to get down to its hind-legs and quickly sliced them off in a swift motion.

The Alpha toppled to the ground and groaned in pain as it looked at me as I stood in front of him and decapitated the wolf`s head. I deactivated my lightsaber and put it back on my waist to turn and see the ponies surprised.

"No pony has never taken down an Alpha Timberwolf!" The purple unicorn stated.

"Not even mah Granny has heard tales about anypony taking down a Timberwolf that size, It seemed impossible." The orange pony added.

"How in Equestria were you able to do all those stunts." The White unicorn asked.

"How about I tell you after we leave this forest, I fear we might run into some more unwanted guests." I pointed out and the ponies agreed.

"Follow us and wel lead you back to Ponyville. Then you can tell us how you are able t do all that cool stuff." The rainbow pony said. I didnt want to leave my ship behind, so I used the force once more to raise the ship and carry it back to this "Ponyville".
