(A Long Time Ago, In A Galaxy Far Far Away)

With Eric Keteris on Dandoran with Roseluck, Malachor and his companions live on Equestria to celebrate after a tremendous victory over the Empire just mere weeks ago. Now with the Empire slowly regaining its strength, another old organization is on the verge of collapsing as it has been avoiding the Empire since the end of the Clone Wars.

(Ponyville, Equestria, 3rd P.O.V)

The Cutie Mark Crusaders were grace with Babs Seed, Applebloom’s cousin. “So ‘cuz you really went into space?” Babs asked with an awestruck expression.

“Yep, and you shoulda seen all the stars and planets out there, it was amazing!” Sweetie Belle replied remembering the sights of the vast universe.

“Except when we ended up on board a prototype superweapon, under the command of a cruel sadistic old man, and his equally cruel lackey who is mostly machine, but very scary.” Scootaloo said with a frown as well as pointing out some key information.

“But if it weren’t for our friends Echo and Eric, we’d probably had been goners.” Applebloom stated with a smile. “Geez, that sounds intense.” Babs said with worried expression.

Then Malachor had arrived at Sweet Apple Acres to assist Applejack with looking after her little sister, cousin, and their friends. The CMC had never seen Malachor before, but they were indeed curious about one of the saviors of Equestria. When Malachor approached the CMC clubhouse, he sat in the grass with his knapsack filled with Jedi and Sith Holocrons. He looked them over just make sure these were the ones he wanted to use to help him with his meditation before dealing with four rambunctious fillies. As he started to get into his meditative trance, the four fillies quietly snuck out of their clubhouse and saw three triangular objects, and three cube objects, one of them was floating in mid air in front of a someone they didn’t recognize. They figured he was asleep and slowly made their way towards the objects and were about to take one of the triangular ones until somebody ran over to stop them.

“Just what do you think you little fillies are up to?” A voice asked as the fillies stopped dead in their tracks; It was Echo.

“We were just tryin to see what these things were.” Applebloom said holding one of the Sith Holocrons in her hoof.

“I’m glad I stopped you then, there’s nothing worse than seeing Malachor angry, and trust me the Emperor is absolute afraid of him, so you best put that back before he…” Echo said before pausing when he saw Malachor open his eyes and walked toward the fillies with an angry expression on his face.

“Before I what Echo?” Malachor asked making the fillies jump in surprise.

“Well uh you see, I was just trying to stop these fillies from messing with your meditation sir.” Echo replied standing in front of the fillies who poked their heads out from behind the clone.

“Really? How commendable, and I seem to have misplaced one of my Sith Holocrons, more specifically one of Darth Revan’s, I don’t suppose that one of those fillies has taken it do you, because it would be a shame if they did.” Malachor said with a calm voice.

Now Echo was scared, whenever something of Malachor’s went missing and he was speaking calmly, it usually meant: “Tell me the truth, or suffer the consequences.” Applebloom pushed the holocron to Malachor with a terrified expression.

“P-p-please mister Malachor, don’t hurt him, we’re sorry.” The little filly ran back and clung onto Echo’s leg once more.

“Oh, I’m not punishing him, but the four of you will be, I won’t tell Applejack that you tried to take one of my Holocrons, if you promise to tell me what you’ve learned from them, in your own interpretations, I don’t like copycats, so don’t try to cheat your way out of this.” Malachor said with a long sigh as he knelt down to the filly and lightly ran his fingers through her mane.

“We haven’t learned anything from them holocrons, We were just curious.” Scootaloo responded as she peeked out from Echo’s leg as well as Sweetie Belle and Babs. Malachor only chuckled.

“Not yet you haven’t, because you can’t open them, but I can.” He said with a smile, but the fillies looked at him skeptically.

“Here, come and sit down, I’ll show you the secrets that lie within.” He said as he sat back down in his meditation pose.

Echo motioned the fillies to go and sat in front of Malachor and somewhat reflected on his right arm for a second and faced back towards the others. The fillies watched the triangular Sith Holocron opening up and a figure appeared before them. The figure had on a mask similar to Echo’s helmet, but he wore a hood and strange looking robes.

“This is the holocron of Darth Revan, Dark Lord of the Sith. This Holocron was made for the purpose to teach young Jedi to cast off their chains, forged by the Jedi Council and free their minds to explore their true potential. Hear these words and commit them to your heart and revel in the power of your emotions. Peace is a lie. There is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall set me free.” The projection of Revan said making the fillies stare in awe at what they just saw and heard. Babs looked on the hologram and was more fascinated with this as any of the fillies.

(Space over Coruscant, 3rd P.O.V)

After the last Star Destroyer from the Battle over Equestria arrived back to Coruscant, Sidious was not pleased by the destruction of his most powerful weapon, loss of almost ¾ of his fleet, and almost lost to Malachor.

“This defeat shall not be mentioned, for if the galaxy were to know of this, it shall be our undoing.” Sidious said with his raspy voice to Vader.

“Yes my Master, but at last Eric is dead thanks to the precision of Agent Kallus.” Vader said while pointing to Agent Kallus.

“Yes, your kill of that boy is most commendable and is why I want to make you the new commander of the 235th fleet and scan for rebels in the Inner Core.” Sidious turned to Kallus as well.

“As you command, my Lord.” Kallus said with a bow.

“My master, what shall we do about the Equestrian system?” Vader asked his master.

“We shall leave them be for now, we’ll return when they least expect it and decimate their forces.” Sidious said with an angry expression.

“As you wish, my Master, I shall order more Star Destroyers to be constructed and more recruits.” Vader said as he bowed to his master and left to leave Sidious. Two Commanders however overheard the conversation and left the area.

“Cody, I don’t know about you, but I don’t like this, we’re going to be killing billions of innocent civilians, I think we should leave and warn them.” Ganch whispered to Cody after he took off his helmet.

“You can’t be serious about betraying the Empire, unless you’ve become a traitor.” Cody looked at him with an angry expression after he removed his helmet.

“At least I have a moral conscience, unlike you, I thought that you would defend the innocent, like during the Clone Wars.” Ganch said as he punched Cody in the face, knocking him out and put his helmet back on and ran towards the hangar, only to be stopped by Admiral Tarkin.

“Commander Ganch, what are you doing?” Tarkin asked with a suspicious look.

“Just heading to the hangar to do a mandatory cargo check.” Ganch said calmly.

“Hmm, and who authorized it?” Tarkin asked. “Kallus requested me to do this, seeing as he has been promoted, due to killing the Jedi boy during our failed attack of the Equestrian system.” Ganch said while standing at attention.

“Never mention our failed operation again, and seeing as these are orders from Kallus, you may continue.” Tarkin replied as he walked on.

“Thank you, sir.” Ganch said as he watched Tarkin leave his sight and immediately continued to sprint towards the hangar and get to Equestria.

(Dandoran, 3rd P.O.V)

After leaving Equestria and arriving on the calm planet of Dandoran just a few months earlier, Eric and Roseluck had been living near the abandoned Jedi Temple and making due with the lack of civilization.

“Eric, can we please tell your father about his developing grandchild?” Roseluck asked her lover with an endearing pout.

“I thought we told him months ago? And please don’t interrupt my meditation, kinda hard to concentrate when I’m being scolded at.” Eric replied sounding a little older as he had gain some more facial hair from his sideburns and mustache.

“Oh right, I forgot, sorry.” She said with a frown on her face.

“Well that my meditation is over, what seems to be the problem now?” Eric asked as he scooped up Roseluck and sat on the bed.

“I’m just having one of my mood swings. It’s not easy to be a first time mother.” She said with a frown.

“May not be easy now, but I know Cut Lawquane would have had to face the same issue.” Eric responded and stroked the mare’s mane. Roseluck placed a kiss on Eric’s cheek and smiled. Eric lightly rubbed his mare’s stomach. The baby made its presence known by kicking inside its mother’s womb. The two lovers felt the kick and sighed happily knowing that soon they will be a family.

“Just a few more weeks and our foal will be here.” Roseluck said with a smile.

(Ponyville, Equestria, Rarity’s P.O.V)

It had simply have been quite a grand day in Ponyville for it being the wedding for Ella and Malachor and I was in charge of Ella’s wedding gown and Malachor’s suit for the occasion. I was ecstatic to see all of my hard work pay off as I saw Ella in her beautiful wedding gown for her final fitting.

“It’s a work of art Rarity, I can’t wait to show it to Valrun tomorrow.” Ella said with a smile.

“I know darling, he’s going to love it and soon the two of you will be together forever, how romantic.” I said as I clapped my hooves together in happiness.

“I know, but I love the possibility that we might have our wedding in orbit, but seeing as how most of you are uncomfortable with that we decided to move it to an outdoor wedding instead.” Ellas said as she shrugged her shoulders. Ella’s dress was a strapless white gown that had some ebony lace trim around the midsection and the bottom of the gown.

“Yes, I can see the beauty of having the wedding in space, but we’re just not ready to be that far away from home just yet.” I said with a nervous chuckle.

“I can agree, I love to see love like this.” I turned around to see Princess Cadence and her husband Shining Armor at the door.

“Who are you? I don’t believe we met.” Ella asked as her left hand went behind her to use the Force to retrieve her lightsaber.

“No need for that thing, I am Princess Cadence and this is my husband, Shining Armor. We live in the Crystal Empire and through some rather strange yet interesting reports from my Auntie Celestia and Luna, we know who you are.” Cadence replied with a smile.

“Yeah with that epic space battle over the planet and lightsabers and things like that, it was all really cool.” Shining Armor added.

“I assume that Celestia told you that my love and I are the last of the True Sith Order then.” Ella said with a roll of her eyes.

“Well that and how Eric Keteris could no longer be here with us.” Cadence said maintaining her smile.

“Excellent, that makes my day much easier, it’s an honor to meet you, Cadence, I hope that Valrun and I can come and see your kingdom during our honeymoon.” Ella said with a smile.

“As nice as this is, Ella I believe that we still have work to do.” I said with a smile.

“Right, right. I think that my utility belt would make this come all together.” Ella said as she took her utility belt and placed it around her waist and looked at herself in the mirror.

“You were absolutely right, it does finish it, now all we need is the veil.” I said as I picked up the veil with my magic and gently placed it on her head.

“Absolute beauty.” I said with pure happiness as I looked at Ella’s wedding dress all complete.

“Thank you so much Rarity!” Ella said as she picked me up and started giving me a bone crushing hug.

“You are most welcome darling, but I think you would like to hear Malachor’s thoughts.” I said as the hug was broken.

(Ponyville, 3rd P.O.V)

In the square of Ponyville, multiple ponies including Echo, the Droids aboard the Venators, Malachor and Ella’s crew and Flynn had arrived at the altar where the marriage of two Sith’s were about to take place. Celestia was the one to officiate the ceremony with Luna and Twilight. Cadence was in the front row comforting her husband who was crying like a baby. Meanwhile Malachor was already standing at the altar awaiting his bride to be with Flynn as his best man.

“I’m glad this day has finally come, I just wish that Eric and Roseluck came here to see it.” Malachor said with a sigh of disappointment.

“Oh well, he does have a child on the way, so that’s a good reason to stay put for a while, we’ll send him the recording later.” Flynn said with a chuckle.

“Yeah, now let’s do this.” Malachor said when he saw everypony turn to see Ella in her gown with the CMC being the flower fillies. Dancing and throwing petals about, Ella gracefully walked up to her loving Sith groom on the altar and faced both him and Celestia. Ella lifted her veil to reveal her smiling face. Malachor and Ella clasped each other’s hands and turned to face Celestia.

“Dearly beloved, we’re gathered here today to join these two Force Wielders together in the bonds of matrimony.” Celestia said with a warm smile. Malachor suddenly felt a familiar presence in the Force, one that was presumed dead long ago. He ignored it for now, and returned his attention to the most important day of his life.

“Without any further delay, Do you Ella take Malachor to be your lawfully wedded husband until death do you part?” Celestia asked the young female Sith. “I do, now and forever.” Ella responded.

“Do you Malachor take Ella to be your lawfully wedded wife until death do you part?” Celestia asked the young male Sith. “I do now, and forever.” Malachor said as he turned to his bride.

“Then by the authority vested in me I now pronounce this couple husband and wife, you may kiss the bride.” Celestia said with a smile. Malachor and Ella needed no further instructions as they kissed with a passion that rivaled the Emperor’s resolve for conquering planets, everypony felt the love the two Sith had for one another and gave out an ‘aw’ at the sight.

After the kiss was broken, Malachor swooped up his new wife and carried her to the starship not far from the altar. “Let’s go and explore the Galaxy together.” Ella said with a cheerful smile on her face.

“We shall, but first let’s go to Dandoran and give Eric the good news, after that we can go on our way.” Malachor said as he started up the engines.
