-Dark Times: Chaos on Corellia-

Ever since that one day months ago, when the clone battalion serving under Master Aju suddenly turned against him and his padawan, life has been hell. The Jedi Temple, the only place they have viewed as a home for years, has been turned into the Imperial Palace, and now every remaining Jedi lives in fear of being discovered by the Empire. Despite everything though, Master Aju and his padawan Savair have gotten through it all so far. They’ve managed to mostly stay under the radar of the Empire and have found another surviving Jedi Knight by the name of Maknya Eaz.

 

After the three Jedi accidentally exposed their identities a couple of days ago following some chaos at an Imperial checkpoint on Corellia, the Empire has put a big bounty on their heads. This planet is no longer a safe place to stay, and so the trio has decided to look for options to head to another system. Luckily, it seems like they’ve found just what they need after overhearing a conversation between two locals; a big cargo ship has just arrived at the spaceport, and it's heading towards the other side of the galaxy once it has picked up enough cargo over here. After sneaking past a couple of Imperial checkpoints set up throughout the city and near the spaceport, the three Jedi have found the cargo ship they’ve heard about. As soon as they walk in though, something feels off. There are no workers busy with loading in cargo at all, and there are no sounds of machines or engines humming in the background either. But before any of the Jedi can figure out what’s going on, the door of the cargo bay begins to close. Despite their best efforts, once they reach the door it's fully closed. As alarm lights begin to go off, the realisation kicks in; they have walked right into a trap.

 

While Maknya heads off to find a way to manually open the door, Master Aju and Savair decide to go look for another way to escape. After a while, they stumble upon the engine room, and notice a couple of escape pods in the back. Although the room is shrouded in darkness, Savair suddenly notices two figures standing a few meters before them. Before Aju could reach for his Lightsaber to defend himself and his padawan, one of the figures raised her arm causing Aju to gasp for air. Without any effort, the figure made a small hand movement and a snapping sound was heard.

 

Master Aju was dead.

 

The figure tossed the dead body of the Jedi Master aside, and his gold Lightsaber handle clattered onto the ground. Although it was way too big for Savair to handle, she still picked it up, ignited it and tried her best to look as intimidating as she could.

 

‘’Don’t mourn your Master, he was only using you for his own gain.’’ one of the figures says, with a mechanical, distorted voice. ‘’You can call me the First Sister, and this here is the First Brother. We’re Inquisitors, and we were sent to help you. ’’

 

Although this does not calm Savair at all, she notices something behind the two that was more reassuring; Maknya was hiding in the shadows behind the two, and about to strike at the Inquisitors. As she jumped out of her hiding place, she was able to take the First Brother by surprise, damaging his armor and knocking his Lightsaber out of his hand. But the First Sister had no issue with defending herself against the Jedi. Without effort, the Inquisitor was able to block every attack and slashed off the hands of the Jedi moments later. Without a single way to defend herself anymore, Maknya had no choice but to helplessly watch as the First Sister raised up her Lightsaber, and sliced her in half.

 

As soon as the two Inquisitors had recovered from the fight, they didn’t even bother with trying to reason with the young padawan. The First Sister just slammed her against the wall to knock her unconscious, put a couple of stun cuffs on her, and ordered a few Stormtroopers stationed outside on the spaceport to drag her to their TIE Reaper and to dispose of the bodies of the others.

 

‘’Set course to Nur, and take that padawan to the central interrogation chamber as soon as you arrive.’’ The First Sister ordered. ‘’With enough torture, we’ll be able to turn her into an Inquisitor soon enough as well.’’

 

The two Inquisitors picked up their lightsabers and walked out of the cargo ship, but right before they were about to fly back to the planet of Nur, the First Sister received a message from an important Imperial Officer.

 

‘’I’ve got some good news about that investigation into the criminals who aided us in the battle over Raxus Secundus. If our intel is correct, then that one smuggler you were looking for is on Corellia right now.

 

The First Sister gasped. ‘’You mean the smuggler Quay Sta’nn?’’

 

‘’Indeed. Someone by that name has passed through a checkpoint on Corellia, and several other sources have confirmed he’s on the planet too.’’

 

The Inquisitor stood up from her chair in the ship immediately, and left the First Brother alone in the cockpit.

 

‘’Leave without me, I’ll head to Fortress Inquisitorius at a later moment. First, i have a smuggler to kill.’’

It has taken me roughly 10 months, but i've finally finished this build. Happy 2022 everyone!
