Star Wars Episode III - Revenge of the Sith Rewrite

[Shana]

War! The Republic is crumbling

under attacks by the ruthless

Sith Lord, Count Dooku.

There are heroes on both sides.

Evil is everywhere.

 

In a stunning move, the

fiendish leader, General

Grievous, has swept into the

Republic capital and kidnapped

Chancellor Palpatine, leader of

the Galactic Senate.

 

As the Separatist Droid Army

attempts to flee the besieged

capital with their valuable

hostage, the Jedi Knights lead a

desperate mission to rescue the

captive Chancellor…

 

The Republic forces engaged over Coruscant with the Separatist army. Giant capital ships firing at each other, fighters exploding here and there and bodies of defeated clones floating in space. Through all this chaos raced Anakin Skywalker followed closely by Obi-Wan Kenobi. Obi-Wan had chosen to lead this mission. The Jedi with him had volunteered to accompany him knowing that Grievous was a difficult opponent to be faced by only one person.

 

- "Master, General Grievous's ship is directly ahead" - Anakin said taking down two vulture droids heading their way - "Everyone stay tight and close, we'll breeze through".

Mace Windu stood inside a LAAT/i, holding onto the net above him to keep his balance as the gunship rushed towards the Jedi Temple. The droids had been driven back even if he had been too slow to notice the true intention of the attack, causing Grievous to manage an escape with the Supreme Chancellor. But it was not a complete loss as Grievous had been wounded in the very short-lived duel of Windu and the cyborg. The gunship continued to shoot into the diminishing ranks of the droid forces while on it's way to bring Mace to coordinate the swift counter-attack. The gunship had barely landed inside the hangar when Windu jumped off and rushed towards the war room. Inside, he met up with several clones and Jedi giving out orders.

 

"General Windu, the droids are in a full retreat. Our ships are cutting throught their lines like a vibroblade throught butter" a Clone said as soon as the Jedi entered

"Good. How is the space battle going?" Master Windu asked and walked towards the Clone.

"The Seperatists are attempting to fall back but we have manage to lock them inside the planetary shields. Home Fleet and the Open Circle fleets are continuing the attack and we have recieved word that General Kenobi and Commander Skywalker are on their way towards the Invisible Hand" the clone answered and Mace nodded silently, stepping forth to the large table showing the battle rather accurately. depending on which reports were coming in at the moment. Radio communications were tuned over to Kenobi and Skywalker's frequency and their chatter came throught the speaker. Windu nodded to the Clone and started to hand out orders to the Home Fleet on how to position itself

The infamous Count Dooku stood before the turbolift doors on the middendeck of the Invisible Hand, he was flanked by four ready B2 Super Battledroids as they awaited their precious cargo.

 

((I will act Palpatine for now, since we were unable to recruit our friend Sandra and our last Palpatine was unable to attend this RP))

 

A slight hum and soft hiss announced the Supreme Chancellor's arrival, escorted by IG-101 and IG-102, Greivous' personal guards. Palpatine stepped out and stared Dooku down, without uttering a word the two guards left the Count's own escort in charge of the prisoner.

 

The party of six entered the main lifts, acending into the upper spire aptly nicknamed, 'The Wizard's Tower' where Dooku usually broadcasted his political propaganda to the rest of the Separatists. after a minute or so, climbing higher and higher, they reached the main hall of the Count. The droids escorted their prize over to a large throne-like seat where the elderly Republican leader was strapped down at his wrists.

 

"A most-fitting location for the opposing leader, don't you think?" he still recieved the cold-blank stare from the Chancellor, he was unusually calm for someone taken as a wartime hostage.

"I understand they are not to be underestimated, I have met them before and will do so again. This time however our friend of diminshed-stature, Master Yoda will not be there to rescue them, I'm afraid..."

 

Palpatine merely sat there, restrained and silent, not a word nor a thought ran beneath his calculated appearance. After a moment of Dooku's gaze upon the battle around them, his regal-cape spun about and he promptly left the Supreme Chancellor alone with the scene of the battle behind him that overlooked the capitol.

 

On board the bridge, the many droids and Nemodians controlling the ship snapped to attention as the towering figure of their political leader made his presence felt.

"Are all of our fighters dispatched?" his commanding voice asked idly, a blue-B1 battle commander droid stepped up, "Yes sir, all vulture droids have departed and are patrolling the ship's hull, I was about to give the order to close the main hangar..."

 

Dooku cut off the buzzing voice with a gesture, "No, the hangar is to remain open, we are expecting guests..."

 

"Err... Roger, Roger..." the droid commander was confused, though obeyed it's orders. It was tactically unwise to it's programming to keep such a vulnerable part of the ship exposed.

 

"How goes the engagement?" He asked again, stroking his beard lightly as he observed the lights and sounds of the immense battle.

"Sir, we have been caught inside the planetary shields and the Republic is bombarding our fleet. We are attempting to damage the shield emmiters from orbit on this quadrant though the immediate threat lies with the Republic fleet" the blue command B1 spoke up again, strolling up to Dooku's side with it's mechanical hands clasped behind it's pelvis, enacting the superior AI programming it had been created with as a command unit.

 

"Where is the general now?" his thoughts began to search the ship.

"Sir, General Grievous reported to the medical section, he had sustained significant injuries during his mission, He will report to the bridge as soon as he is able." once more the mechanical voice answered.

"Continue with your objective, order the General to send me his report when he is ready, I will be in my quarters."

"Roger, Roger..."
