The First War

Far in the outer reaches of the galaxy was a planet called Onderon. Onderon since the birth of the Jedi, protectors of peace, there was a hidden temple. Very few people knew of its existence. The temple secreted a power. A destructive yet peaceful force that impacted those inhabiting the planet. After the battle of Geonosis, Obi-Wan Kenobi had taken Anakin Skywalker to train. Young Skywalker was very powerful and the Temple calmed him. Anakin was trained there for six months. While there, Obi-Wan Kenobi found a woman named Kresiel Lin. Obi-Wan fell in love. Though forbidden, Obi-Wan was with her in secret for the six months, till the day he had to leave. Kresiel was heartbroken. 2 months later she found out she had conceived a child. And she named him Kasi.

22 Years Later

The first bomb shook the village. A village house was completely obliterated. Kasi woke, covered in sweat, and made a reach for his blaster.

"No," he thought. "This is just a test." Onderon had not been attacked since Darth Vader attacked with a small battalion of imperial stormtroopers. But after the second shake, Kasi looked out the window. Tie Fighters swarmed the air and Imperial landing crafts landed in the square He leaped out of bed and grabbed his helmet. And for good measure, he took his good luck charm, An unopened gift he received from his mother before she died.

"Only open this in the darkest hour," she had said to him. The square was chaotic. Stormtroopers were shooting at anything with a pulse. Then villagers and stormtroopers alike glanced at the sky. A black shuttle was landing just twenty yards away. And exited the feared Darth Malec.

Darth Malec was a sith lord under the empire who was above Vader in rank. Rumor had it, the emperor trained Darth Malec himself. Darth Malec had a strict looking face. He was completely bald and carried a normal red lightsaber with a black hilt. Kasi watched, terrified as he strode through the battlefield cutting down everybody in his path. He stopped at the old forbidden temple. He closed his fist and the doors ripped away. For a moment it was silent. Then, a blast was fired. Then the front of the temple exploded. Malec flew back and his head hit a rock. Then multiple soldiers ran out of the temple. The Rebel Alliance was here. The stormtroopers were retreating. Explosions lit the air. Nothing could be seen but fire. And when the smoke cleared the battle was won. Houses had been obliterated. And Kasi somehow knew. Not only was Darth Malec alive, he would come back. Soon.
