Star Wars: Buried Truth

Reality

At their designated consoles, the three tapped into their comms. Fett, Pax, and Grievous spoke to each other.

"Alright, we're ready for activation."
Fett replied.

The three pulled the handles down in unison. The ground roared as several pillars bursted out from the rocks below. These magnificent creations formed by the CIS glowed, energy surging through them, blooming with life.

"Meet up at the ship!"
Grievous barked, something was about to happen, and they all knew it too.

The ground shook viciously, Fett was first to the ship. Pax next, and finally Grievous. After the escapade, Grievous activated the scanners. With all three of them seated, the drop ship hovered slowly in the air, blowing the dust violently below. It took off to the center of the massive pillars, energy colliding in the center of them all.

"Hold on, it's about to get severely bumpy!"
Pax shouted.

Grievous took the ship in the center of this massive surge, the ship rocked and dust slammed its exterior shell.

"We're entering the center!"
Grievous shouted, flying the drop ship straight into the center.

"Woah..."
Fett scanned the massive energy surge, as everything calmed, the shaking, the flying.

Grievous landed their ship, as his eyes widened.
"A holocron."

Reaching out, he felt resistance from Pax.

"Wait General, we don't know what this thing holds, be cautious"

Grievous nodded, as his metal grip opened it up. He froze and stumbled back, a massive map of the Galaxy opened, a recording.

"Hey, lets watch this, there's a recording"
Fett leaned in.

Grievous activated the recording, as images and a voice was noticed.

"The Clone Wars was nearly over, we were so close, so close to bringing peace." "Everything was about to end, but our allies, our comrades, our own Clones... they almost acted like they were under control." "I grip my heart, as I felt a great disturbance in the Force, my Clones aiming at me, in the middle of battle." "I ran, there was too many, my Captain shouted. "Traitors!, he said, several blaster bolts flying by me." "I escaped, and now take refuge, but this goes out to all surviving Jedi" "Do not return to the temple, Order 66 is currently active, and the Clones will hunt you down, and kill you." "I'm sorry, we couldn't bring peace...to the Galaxy..."

The recording ended.

"Order 66..."
Pax had fear in his voice.

"Order 66?" "Explain to us what this is."
Grievous was curious.

Pax continued.
"Order 66 was programmed into our prohibitor chips, along with several other contingency orders." "Order 66 stated, that if announced, all Jedi were to be hunted down and killed, for they were enemies of the Republic." "Here's what I don't understand though...it was in the middle of several battles, the Jedi never did anything out of the ordinary." "The Jedi were right, Chancellor Palpatine was behind everything, he's the Sith Lord..,"

Grievous and Fett were extremely surprised.

"This map, leads to Coruscant, we'll go there, I feel as if we haven't fully uncovered the Truth." "What is this Empire hiding, and why do they want it to be hidden."

Grievous wondered, he started to question if he was set up all along.

Fett downloaded the Data and the recording.

"Lets go, before the Empire notices our findings, they'll definitely arrive here, that power surge wasn't unnoticed."

Grievous, Fett, along with Pax, entered the Drop ship. With no hesitation, the ship was in the air, speeding out of of orbit.

"This reality will soon be spilled"
Grievous coughed.

The hyperdrive roared, as they slipped into the direction of Coruscant. The massive worldwide city covered the planet with light pollution scorching the sky. This dark truth would be uncovered, revealing the fall of the Jedi, the Republic, and the birth, of the Galactic Empire.
