Star Wars: Surviving Order 66
Order 66 has been initiated and throughout the galaxy clones turn into Jedi assassins. Many Jedi fail to see the threat in time and are slaughtered by the troops they believed were their allies. Only a dozen or so Jedi scattered across the galaxy have managed to avoid the slaughter. This is the story of a couple fledgling Jedi trying to survive in a Universe dominated by the forces of the Emperor.The Emperor moves slowly to a large chair and turns around standing in front of it. He leers over to his left where three individuals all wearing black stand quietly. He motions for them to approach with the flick of a boney finger.
“Come forward.”
The three Sith approach two are standing in front of the Emperor within seconds and the third arrives more slowly. The Dark Lord smiles at the three, it is a dark, cold, and twisted smile.
“I have protected all three of you for a long time now. It is time for you to earn the protection I afforded you all these years. I saved you from being discovered by the Jedi so when I had ended their influence I could unleash the three of you to find the last survivors and kill them. There is still a number of pitiful Jedi scum out there that have to be dealt with swiftly. I have transferred information about three different Jedi onto these three datapads one per pad. Each of you will be responsible for the Jedi on the datapad I give you. Proof of their demise is required. Do not fail me.”
Each takes a datapad in turn and takes a step back from the Emperor and each other. There is no doubt that they don’t trust one another and they don’t want one another to see the target they have been given. Competition between Sith is a very deadly game.
The largest of the three Sith holds the datapad close to his face covering the edges with his hand to avoid showing the information to the dark lords beside him. The image is clear and the name under it states the name of the Jedi, Kahla Shar. He turns the datapad off and puts it in a fold in his black robes. He waits for the Emperor to give permission to leave. Darth Sidious sits slowly and with a nonchalant wave of his left hand he signals they can leave. All three turn and leave quickly. The slowest of the three doesn’t leave the room as fast as the first two. The robed woman turns to face the Emperor and speaks to him in a raspy feminine voice.
“Are you sure you should have given him Kahla Shar? She is more skilled and stronger with the Force than he is and I would do the job so much better.”
Darth Sidious cackles and is suddenly very serious.
“He has to prove his worth and if he isn’t ready to deal with her then he is better dead! I’ve chosen you for the strongest foes and I want you to deal with them swiftly. Now go…”
She leaves the room without saying another word.
