Star Wars Elseworlds: Book One

Part One

My name is Cam Marrok, or well, was Cam Marrok. A short time ago I was a Jedi, a member of the republic, keeper of the peace. Until I met him, who he really was. Palpetine. I was the one who figured out that Chancellor Palpetine was the Dark Lord of the Sith, one of the most powerful Sith to this day. He was the one who recognized my power, he, unlike the other Jedi, knew my potential, and so I joined him, I killed his apprentice Dooku and took his place alongside Emperor Palpetine and fight alongside him in his quest to rule the galaxy.

I along with the droid army assigned to join me, was on a mission to reclaim Geonosis. One of the first planets to fall to the republic, and home to the largest droid factories in the galaxy, If I reclaim those, then I reclaim the galaxy.

I was leaning outside the gunship I was in overlooking the battlefield. A droid commander with a device in hand said to me

"My lord, our forces say there are too many republic forces, we need to retreat"

I turned around and shouted "We're not retreating! You hear me! I must reclaim those factories in order for us to stand a chance! I'm going to fix dooku's mistakes, and I expect you to follow me"

He raised his arm and saluted me saying "Roger Roger", in a fit of rage I used the force to throw the droid out the side of the gunship, unlike clone troopers I share a tiny bit of compassion for killing them.

When the gunship touched down on the surface I walked over towards one of the commander droids.

"report" I grunted

"The republic has the factories held down, My Lord, our forces can't get close enough and our gunships get shot down if they get too close and there's also another problem, My Lord"

I faced the droid and said "what is this problem?" I asked

"There's a Jedi, we've identified him to be General Obi-Wan Kenobi"

My eyes widened. Obi-Wan was one of my closest friends back when I was a Jedi, He was the only one who showed the slightest amount of concern towards me, this battle is going to be interesting.

"commander, I'm going to charge their position, lay down as much cover fire for me as possible, once I'm behind their barriers begin sending our forces in, this will be over quick" I said.

The droid nodded, after which I took off my cloak, exposing my armour and face.

I jumped over one of the barricades and sprinted towards the barricades the republic set up, whilst defecting blasts off of my crimson lightsaber.

When I got close enough to the barricade I used the force to blast the barricades back at the clone troopers shooting at me and began cutting down every clone trooper in front of me.

I glanced at the droid's side and noticed them all rushing towards my position. But after I finished cutting down the last clone trooper, I saw him, Obi-wan.

The clone trooper style armour on his forearms and the light brown tunic made him easily recognisable, along with his brown bushy beard.

"Cam! Stop this! This isn't you!" Obi-wan shouted

"I don't want to hear it Kenobi! This is what I was made for, this is what I was destined to do!" I shouted

"Cam, don't let your rage guide your actions, let me help you" He said

In a fit of rage I blasted him with my force lightning, but was ineffective due to him blocking it with his lightsaber. He ran towards me, slashing away with his lightsaber. When I had an opening in his attack, I blasted him with the force sending him flying into a rock, making it crumble. He struggled to get up, but I knew him, he'd keep fighting.
