Admiral Kenek Callef slowly got up. Only a few minutes ago, he assumed, the Rebels had made their way to the Command Bridge and had killed every Imperial Engineer or Officer in the Bridge. To take care of the Remaining Rebels, he threw a Grenade. He knew it was a Bad Idea, considering they were in the Command Bridge but he would not go down without a fight.

And somehow, he was Alive.

He quickly went to the Communicator. But before he pressed a Button, he saw out the window, which was a little cracked, the Blue and Black lines of Hyperspace.

He then started to feel a little Dizzy. Before the Rebels had come to the Bridge, Callef had been staring out the window when they went into Hyperspace. Now that he was looking at it again...it looked so Beautiful. He shook his head.

Hyper Sickness. He had heard about it many times from the other Admiral's in the Empire and even heard about it from some Spacers at a Cantina on the Core World Coruscant. Hyperspace Sickness was something that made People go Mad and Insane when they looked at Hyperspace too Long. Was this what it was like? To go Insane?.

He started Chuckling. Soon that Chuckling became Hysterical Laughter. His Mind felt Wild, felt free from Imperial Control. As he Laughed, he remembered something. Maketh...Lanoree. He knew he was losing his mind but in the Back of Callef's Head, he remembered his Family.

He pushed a button and spoke."TK-679, TK-694. Status Report! Is Minister Maketh Tua and my Daughter Alive? Are they okay?!" There was no response, for a moment anyway. The Radio Crackled."Kenek!" Came the Voice of his Wife. Callef let out a relieved Sigh."Thank the Stars your all right...How's Maketh?"

There was Static for a moment."She's fine. The Rebels, Kenek...they Killed the Stormtrooper's!" He heard Fear in her Voice."Maketh...listen, take Lanoree to an Escape Pod and...and..." He then started laughing again.


"Callef!?" Minister Maketh Tua said. There was Static for a moment then Laughter."Callef..." She said quietly.

The Room she and her Daughter, Lanoree, were in was the Admiral Quarters. A few minutes ago, Rebels had come down the Hallway and Maketh had heard Blasting outside the Room. When she opened the Door, both Two Stormtroopers and Three Rebel Soldiers were Dead. She assumed that the Rebels were going to the Admiral Quarters because they thought the Admiral was in there.

The Room was a bit dark and grey and Lanoree, wearing Similar Clothing as she did (A Blue Tunic and a set of Trousers) only she didn't wear her Cone-shaped Hat, was sitting on a blue Bed. She seemed Frightened and on the verge of Tears, despite being Fourteen.

"Forget the Empire! Forget the Rebellion! *Laughter* We all Die today in Glory!" Maketh heard Callef yell. Only it was from the Intercom.


As Tom and Cole made their way down the Hallway to the Escape Pod, they heard something from the Intercom."Forget the Empire! Forget the Rebellion! *Laughter* We all Die Today in Glory!"

"Was that the Admiral?" Cole asked. Tom shrugged."It doesn't matter. We have to keep going." And so they did. So far, they found no Living Human or Rebels.

"Finally! Were here!" Cole said, jumping up in down. He had his Light blue Backpack on his back, filled with Scrolls, Ancient Text and other Dark Side stuff. Tom also finally noticed that Cole had his long Silver Case. For over Two Years, Tom had seen that Case a lot but he had no idea what was in it. Nor did he care.

"Are you sure about this?" Cole asked."This has never been done before. Are you sure about this?" Tom nodded, his Face plain as ever.

There were about Three Escape Pods left and next to one of them was an Imperial Officer, slouched Dead. Tom saw in his Hand a Grenade."Probably tried to Explode the Pods." Tom muttered. The Officer never seemed to consider there was a Blaster Mark on his Chest.

Cole opened the one on the Right and went in. Tom was about to follow when he heard a Voice."The Sith is out but not for long. We need to set more Explosives." The Alien!. He thought angrily. He remembered how the Chiss Woman had been barking Orders to the Rebels.

He put his hand on his Double Barreled Blaster Carbine, which was still holstered, and was going to walk down the hallway until...

"Tom!" Said Cole, grabbing his Right Arm."Forget her. She'll perish along with the rest if we don't get out of here" Tom looked at him. Cole seemed to understand and he let go. Reluctantly."Take this." He handed Cole the Grenade. Cole looked Confused."Your choice if you want to Shoot yourself or Die in an Explosion" Cole nodded.

Cole nodded and went into the Escape Pod. The Short Alderaanian turned around."Tom...you were the best Bodyguard a Servant for the Emperor could as for"

Tom, for once, Smiled."It was an honor working with you as well" Tom then closed the Hatch to the Escape Pod and pressed the button. The Pod disappeared.

His smile slowly faded as he made his way down the hall.


Tanvik Jeet ran down the Hallway, despite her Aching Head. She had just woken up and saw the Sith Purebloods body Unconscious. For some odd reason though, she wondered what the Sith was Dreaming.

The Hyperdrive Engine was Destroyed yet they were still in Hyperspace. She didn't care, not now anyway. She had to find her Daughter. As she ran, she opened a Door to continue running when she saw Two Rebel Soldier's when the Door open.

"Ma'am!" They both said in unison. She remembered that she was the one leading the Mission. The Chiss pointed at them."The Sith is out but not for long. We need to set more Explosives." The Two nodded."Yes, Ma'am" They then left.


"If I'm going down, so are you, Imp!" The Green Rodian Rebel yelled as he took cover at the Corner of the Hallway. Tom didn't even bother to hide. Once the Rodian peeked his green Head out, he shot his big right eye. He then half Smiled, showing Emotion. He HATED Aliens. He could only imagine the Grin that would be on his face when he killed that Chiss.

As he made his way down the Hall, he saw a woman wearing a blue tunic and had Cone-shaped on her Head. Next to her was a Human Girl that seemed Fourteen, wearing Similar Clothing. They looked at Tom for a moment, then continued walking to the Escape Pod.


Tanvik kept running, her thoughts on her Daughter when she felt something hard wack her Face. She was blinded for a moment, her Headache increasing. When she could finally see, she saw a Male Human that must have hit her with the Butt of his Blaster Carbine.

"Alien Scum." The Human spat. He wore a Leather Jacket and Leather Pants and Black Boots. His Beard was scruffy and his Hair black as hers. The Blaster Carbine was pointed at her as her back was on the ground. Tanvik looked at the Man closely."Tom grey?" She said, remembering the Days of the Clone Wars.

"You were an Admiral for the CIS. Word was, You were very close to the Count himself." The Human said nothing, no expression on his face."You were a bit different though. I think I liked you better in Blue" The Human then stomped on her Left Leg. The Pain was so intense, she groaned, but she would not give the Human satisfaction of yelling.

"You're Rebellion will Fall. Your Ascendancy will fall. You'r-" "Mother!" Tanvik saw her Daughter down the Hallway, her Face in Fear. She stared at her, HER Face in Fear. She turned around and looked at the Human. She closed her eyes, accepting her Fate.

When she opened her eyes, the Human was gone.


This was the Best Sleepover Ever. Or in Starlight's Opinion anyway.

The Sleepover was at Twilight's Castle of Friendship on a Saturday. Along with the Mane Six and Spike, Starlight had also joined. It had been a Fun Night (Also thanks to Pinkie) of playing Games, Sharing Stories, doing their Manes and that.

She snored Lightly in her Sleeping Bag. Then, it caught her. Something Bright. She slowly opened her eyelids and saw throughout the Window, a Ball of Fire in the Distance. It seemed big but also small since it was far away. She slowly stood up and nudged Twilight who was next to her."Twilight" She whispered, Careful not to wake any other Pony up.

"Thank you, Princess Celestia..." Twilight said, still sleeping. Starlight raised an eyebrow but kept nudging Twilight. The Alicorn woke up slowly."S-Starlight?" She said tiredly."Look" She pointed her Hoof out the Window. Twilight's Tired Face then became a surprise."W-what is that?" Twilight said, confused.

"I think that's a Meteor...and I think there's another one." In the Distance, she another Ball of Fire but it was Farther away. Finally, the Balls of Fire seemed to crash in Everfree Forest. Starlight and Twilight looked shocked at what just happened and they then looked at each other.

"We better wake up the Girls. Everfree Forest could be on Fire!"
