He knew her. Beru. Vader knelt down next to her, using his cape to quell the bleeding from the boy's arm. Vader looked at the boy through his red lenses, sensing something he had never felt before. He should know this boy. He felt a connection. Owen broke past the stormtroopers who were now guarding the door to the headquarters, but they detained him before he reached Vader. "Let go of me. That's my son! Let go of me." Owen broke free and ran toward Vader. Vader turned just as Owen reached him, grabbing him with the Force by his neck and lifting Owen above him. Vader recognized him. "You!" Vader yelled. Something within Vader caused him to look back at the boy, and then to both Owen and Beru. There was no way that boy was theirs. There was no similarity. "You lie!"

"You'll have my back right flyboy?" "Always, sweetheart. To the end and beyond." A story in which two starfighter pilots find love not just on the ground, but in the stars. EXTENDED SUMMARY INSIDE [Poe Dameron x Zay Veriso] [The Force Awakens - The Rise of Skywalker] Cover by @SmittyBS Started: January 6th, 2020 Completed: TBD Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING RELATED TO STAR WARS, EXCEPT FOR MY OWN CHARACTERS All Rights Reserved

Luke Skywalker, the Last Jedi, faces his toughest challenge yet. To rebuild the Jedi Order, he must give up his personal hopes and dreams. Every move is critiqued by not only the New Republic Senate but also the Force-ghost Jedi Council of the past. His sister's tumultuous marriage and unplanned pregnancy, disillusionment with the Jedi Code, and a sinister Empire that will not admit defeat all compound as Luke establishes the Jedi Academy. Join him as he battles the darkness within himself, discovers the origins of the Jedi, and fulfills his destiny pursuing compassion above all else. The one thing that a Jedi is forbidden may be the only thing that saves him and the galaxy. (A fan reboot set between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens in the tradition and style of the Original Trilogy.) TRIGGER WARNINGS: Luke suffers from PTSD after the Emperor's Force-lightning attack, which is limited to his reliving the experience. There is discussion about past history for a few characters in slavery and ensuing abuse, but nothing in real time and nothing graphic. The focus is on healing.

Kaida Quinn and her twin brother, Axel, are on the run. With the dismantlement of the new Jedi Order, they had no choice but to flee and hide. They'd erased themselves from history and started anew. That is, until the gig is up. Captured and in the hands of the enemy, the twins must find a way out and to survive. For Kaida, this imprisonment has a harder impact, because who abducted her once meant a lot to her. But now, they're on opposing sides. [ cover by @cosettetapes ]

''Don't tell me what to do...'' ''I don't like it.'' Ever since the First Order has risen and destroyed everything you loved, you have been part of the resistance. Even though they don't trust you because of who you are, you are determined to destroy the people that took everything for you. Everything seems to be going just fine, until this vague, interesting and a little annoying man enters your life. It all goes to shit when you meet him, and for the better or worse, you can't seem to stop yourself from changing, for him and yourself.

Anakin Skywalker thinks everyone he knew betrayed him. Everyone except Palpatine. But the Force works in strange ways and he finds himself 23 years in the future and he befriends no other than his own son. He'll see how his actions will change the world he lived in, but the question remains: Will he let the Emperor turn him completely or will he find out a way back to the light?

What if, Darth Vader's trap set for Luke Skywalker on Bespin had not failed? What if, the son of Anakin Skywalker could be turned? Disclaimer: I do not own Star Wars or any of its characters or material. All material and characters belong to their respective owners.

Luke was walking the halls of the Jedi Temple one day when he was suddenly swept up by the Force. Somehow he has found himself in the middle of a battle led by his father Anakin Skywalker and his former master Obi-Wan Kenobi twenty-three years prior. Given the chance to get to know his father before he became Vader--and possibly save him as well--will Luke be able to alter the past for the best? Or will he only make things worse?

Mali Ghana is a highly ranked fighter pilot for the Resistance. Still, nothing could stop her from secretly invading the StarKiller to save the one reason she even joined the Resistance; her sister, a hostage of the First Order. But, in a quick turn of events, Mali is captured and stored in the deep and dark jail cells of StarKiller base. Being high on the First Order's most wanted list, Mali is interrogated by one of their finest warriors; a master of the Knights of Ren. Kylo Ren was nothing like the Resistance had described; hidden behind harsh questions and dark threats, Mali had found someone who is beautifully gentle, someone who understood her. Could Mali peel away the protective layers in Kylo Ren's mind, and show him the light at the end of the tunnel? Could she change his heart for good? - (disclaimer: I wrote this when I was like 15 after tfa came out- therefore it is in no relation to tlj, and it has very dramatic, not always well thought-out twists to it- you've been warned!)
