In the shadows of an Empire, an ancient flame is reignited.
Long before the rise of Darth Vader, before the Clone Wars and the fall of the Jedi Order, a young Padawan named Kael Taran vanished during the cataclysmic wars against the Sith Empire. Presumed lost to time, he awakens in a galaxy that has long forgotten the Jedi... but not their enemies.
Thrust into a new era where the Force is hunted, not honored, Kael must navigate a fractured rebellion, forge uncertain alliances, and confront a legacy he never expected to carry. Haunted by memories of a lost age and the burden of survival, he is no longer a boy of the Order-but he may become something more.
A relic of the past.
A warrior of the present.
A spark for the future.
The Force is not done with Kael Taran.

Heart of The Force (Darth Revan x Star Wars Rebels)
"I have done...terrible things, my apprentice. I was once a Jedi, then I was a Sith. Now...I am just Revan. I can finally see what I am..." "But...Master, you have taught me so much! I have seen you do amazing things!" "Ezra. Even the most amazing things...can come from the darkest of people..." ~~~~~~~~ Darth Revan. A former Jedi turned Sith Lord, who was turned into what he was by Vitiate, alongside his closest companion Alak, now known as Darth Malak. Lord Revan was the architect of many great and terrifying feats, such as the use of the Mass Shadow Generator against the Mandalorians during the Mandalorian Wars, and also killing Mandalore The Ultimate before hiding Mandalore's Mask so no one could take up the mantle of Mand'alore again. But behind it all, Revan's goals, however misguided they were, were in the name of the Republic which he sought to protect, even if it meant starting a Jedi Civil War, with him and Malak leading an Empire. But what would happen, if Darth Revan...faced Darth Sidious and the Empire? What if the fierce Sith Lord was somehow transported from his own time, before Malak's betrayal and Bastilla Shan's capture of him, to the time...of the Rebellion and the Ghost Crew? Darth Revan is many things. A great strategist, a genius on the battlefield, a former Jedi, a Sith Lord, a warrior, and an intelligent, pragmatic being above all else. But what if he was to be taken away from Vitiate's influence and his own era? What would the effects be on his damaged mind? And what kind of a teacher would he be...to Ezra Bridger?... The Heart of The Force beats loud and clear. And Darth Revan...IS that beating heart... ~~~~~~~~~~~ I DON'T OWN ANYTHING, ALL RIGHTS GO TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS.

Balance and Victory: A Star Wars Alternate Universe [COMPLETED!]
Anakin Skywalker will not become Darth Vader. Not yet, anyway. Padmé saved him from a lifetime of regret by pulling him out of the fateful battle between Mace Windu and Chancellor Palpatine. But at some point, he still has to decide if his heart lies with the Jedi or the Sith. Palpatine, undeterred by the loss of his potential apprentice, still devises a way to create the Empire and wipe out the vast majority of the Jedi. He sends various threats directly to Anakin and Padmé to convince them that they and their newborn children are in danger. Fearing for their safety, they split. For years, Anakin and Leia wander throughout the galaxy, dodging the Empire and searching for a greater purpose. Meanwhile, Padmé raises Luke while working with Bail Organa and Mon Mothma to lead the fight against the oppressive Galactic Empire. Anakin is constantly tempted by the Dark Side. Padmé struggles to help the Rebels succeed. Their children mean everything to both of them. The story also features other characters we all know and love, such as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ahsoka Tano, Han Solo, and Boba Fett. Most of the story takes place 7 years after Revenge of the Sith. Please note that I would never change the canon; this story is intended to explore what could have happened, not what should have happened. OCs are used very sparingly. Thanks for reading!
