Capturing the Ship

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Well you did match the prophecy nonsense that they spoke "The one who walks the skies." or what ever." Ahsoka said, "Besides, it's not like they would do....anything....yeah never mind you best hope they aren't correct." Ahsoka said, thinking about the things the Imperium is known for.

"I don't know if this is just a religious belief some hold or it's something that they all believe, but they are all just crazy. I'm more worried that they will find someone who can walk in the sky and then a civil war occurs, that would be absolutely horrifying to imagine the damage they could do." Anakin said.

Obi-wan entered the room.

"Well Anakin, I recommend you don't keep your loyal servants waiting, we have a senator to save." Obi-wan said, smiling.

"I'm not their Emperor!" Anakin shouted.

"Well they believe you are, so until they find who ever is their Emperor, I have a feeling you will be treated like absolute royalty by them." Obi-wan said.

"That does sound nice." Anakin commented.

"Yeah, they'd probably pull you away from the front lines, sit you on a throne and everything you say would become a law." Ahsoka said.

"Now that is a legal code I could get behind." Anakin said, entering the Twilight.

"A good Legal code, until you actually say something." Obi-wan said, smiling.

The Imperial Boarding action was underway, as they saw a few ships physically slamming their way into the ship's side, as others entered hangers. Anakin and Obi-wan would enter a hanger, hearing the sounds of battle, seeing fires and wreckage all over the large hanger.

"They do certainly have a way with destroying things quickly." Obi-wan said.

A guardsmen rushed towards the pair, before kneeling to Anakin.

"My Emperor, the battle is going well. Guard forces have captured the front section of the ship and now are working towards the engines." He said.

"Good work soldier, tell your forces to be vigilant for the hostage." Obi-wan said.

The guardsmen didn't answer, or acknowledge the statement.

"Rise, you may return, and make sure the woman is safe, if not, I don't know, I'll be disappointed." Anakin said, shaking his head.

"UNDERSTOOD! 3th Lansarian Rifles, The Emperor is on board and wants the woman found WE DO NOT DISAPPOINT HIM!" He shouted into a radio, before a roar of "For the Emperor" was heard through the ship.

"Quite the following you have, Emperor Skywalker." Obi-wan said, smirking.

"Don't you start that." Anakin said, annoyed.

-meanwhile-

The bridge of the Malevolence, A squad of Space Marines were holding the droids who were in command. The tech-marines worked on breaking into the ship systems, to dominate the weak machine spirit of the ship. 

In the inner chambers, command centers were being conquered, as a duo broke into one center.

"DESTROY METAL MEN FOR THE KITTY!" the ogryn yelled.

"Grek it's for the Emperor!" Daisy, the Felinid said, as she launched a grenade through the chest of a droid.

"FOR THE EMPEROR KITTY!" Grek shouted, firing his shredder gun.

Around the engines, a team of Terminators with a Dreadnaught were holding back against the heavier droid forces. A rocket would slam into the armor, before the dreadnaught waddled forward, and opened fire with it's assaults cannon.

"DEATH TO THE ABIMINABLE MACHINES!" the dreadnaught shouted.

The Cyborg General, Grevious looked down the hall and took the bolt gun he had stolen from the Killed Space Marine, before he took aim. Pulling the trigger, the gun fired, and broke his cybernetic arm with the force of the recoil. The bolt round simply flew and ricocheted off the armor of the terminator, before the terminator raised his missile launcher and fired it at the general, thinking it was a heavy weapons emplacement.

Grevious rushed to the hanger, realizing, the Ship was all but lost, and he would be killed if he remained. Scurrying along the passage ways, the General reached the hanger, seeing a few guardsmen looking around. Activating his lightsaber, Grevious would rush towards them and cut them down, before entering his fighter and taking off.

Padme would remain in hiding in the many halls of the ships, until she heard voices.

"Do you think she is here?" a male voice asked.

"If the Emperor wants her, he will have her." another male said.

"I wish the Emperor would want me." a female said.

"Eawynn, you don't second guess the Emperor's judgment." the first voice said, before Padme saw that they were the Imperium's foot soldiers. Stepping from her hiding place she held her hands up.

"I'm here, don't shoot." Padme said.

"That's her. Ma'am, you are a very lucky woman if the Emperor himself is requesting your safety." The guardsmen said.

"Oh my, an Emperor? Where?" C-3P0 asked, stepping out.

"It's a tin man!" One guard shouted, before Padme stepped between them.

"No, he's a good droid, he's my personal droid." She said.

"Did the orders involve a machine man?" One guard asked.

"I don't think so...but it's her personal machine." another said.

"Bring it. We need to escort her to safety as fast as possible." the woman said.

The group would move through the halls, until eventually reaching a hanger, where Anakin smiled, seeing that Padme was safe.

A Space Marine would walk forward, before kneeling down.

"My Emperor. The Ship is taken. We wish for you to return to Imperius, so that all of the Imperium may know of your return." the space marine said.

"I don't think there is really time for that." Anakin said.

"My Emperor, it is a must. This ship is already having the course charted." The marine said.

"Anakin, what are they talking about?" Padme asked.

"They think I'm their Emperor." Anakin said.

Padme, was fearful, having heard the "prophecy" of the Oracle, or more, what they were looking for.

"I think we should get off this ship." Padme said.

"Agreed." Obi-wan said

"I'd like to apologize, but your Emperor must return to the Republic, I need to report this development." Anakin explained.

Anakin would rush to the Twilight, before boarding the ship, and taking off. 

-Meanwhile-

O.S.P-1 and O.S.P-2 were examining blue prints, with-1 having a simple design, a simple side arm, one with a built-in micro-fusion reactor. -2 on the other hand had drawn a human figure, and was scribbling ideas on the metal, drawing cuts on the body.

Palpatine was curious, could he use them in killing the jedi?

"You will listen to me." Palpatine said, using the force to reach into their minds, only to have them look at him, before shaking their heads.

"You will obey me!" He said, using more of the force to try and manipulate the minds.

Again, their pair shook their heads, ignoring his will.

"I may need more, painful methods to ensure they listen to me." Palpatine said, narrowing his eyes at the pair.

As palpatine stepped away, he felt a dark presence wash over him, only to turn, and see the pair were glaring. Palpatine, if he was not versed in the darkside, may have fallen prone to the sensation, the blood lust, the anger that these two had in their eyes.
