Y/N POV

Myself, along with Jerec and Desann took my starfighter to Coruscant while the rest of the council were tasked with going to Mustafar, the fleet itself remained guarding Taris, Taspir III, Korriban and the other planets under our control.

Luckily for us, there wasn't any Imperial ships defending the capital, so it was just a simple matter of flying right on through. Though we did have a little issue regarding where to park, we found a landing platform relatively close to the museum while still being out of sight.

Regardless, now me, Jerec and Desann were now observing the entrance to the Imperial museum which was being guarded by Stormtroopers who were oddly enough wearing old Clone Trooper armor with red markings, I guess this was that Coruscant Guard my mother used to help out.

Image of the Coruscant Guard commander and a Coruscant Guard trooper:

(This ISN'T Commander Fox, since he is already dead at this point. The Commander in this book is the one who replaced him and wears the same armor.)

I turned to the others and commented "I guess the Emperor already had a hunch we were coming. But I expected better security." They didn't say anything in response as we returned our attention back to the troopers.

We couldn't hear what they were saying however we eventually decided to get closer and begin our little break in. Soon the Commander turned around and entered the museum, leaving the lower ranked troopers outside.

I finally said "Okay, let's move." As we made our way up to the front door. The troopers noticed us and aimed their blasters at us exclaiming "Freeze! By the order of the Emperor, any trespassers in the Imperial museum after hours are to be apprehended immediately."

I didn't react as I instantly choked both of them through the Force just like I did, the troopers on Vjun. As they died slowly, me, Jerec and Desann entered the once proud Jedi Temple. And it was here that we encountered even more troopers, just like the ones at the main entrance, they instantly engaged us in combat.

This time though, we ignited our Lightsabers and cut our way through the troopers before I turned to the others and said "Split up, We'll meet up again in the main atrium." They nodded before we each went our separate ways.

From there, it was simple, locate the Scepter of Ragnos and cut down anyone in my path. On MY route I didn't find anything and soon, I found myself back in the main atrium where once again I was met with that Commander who was outside.

He kept his blaster pistol aimed at me as he spoke "Intruder, stand down and face Imperial justice, I repeat, stand down!" Funny thing is, I didn't even have my Lightsaber ignited yet however as soon as he said those words, I ignited it and threw it in a boomerang motion so that it cut right through all the troopers except the commander.

Upon seeing this, he looked shocked however I didn't give him chance to react as I instantly began to Force Choke him as well, however instead of simply waiting for him to slowly choke to death, I pulled him towards me and impaled him on my Lightsaber before dropping him to the ground.

Soon Jerec and Desann both returned to our meeting point as we all stared at one another before I asked "Did you find the Scepter?" They both replied "No. It's not here." Jerec "It might-"

He was cut off by my hologram communicator going off. I pulled it out and switched it on only to see Tavion on the other end. I coldly spoke "Report! Have you found the Dagger?"

Tavion replied in a panicked tone "It was a trap! Vader attacked us, killed most of us. The remainder have all split up, he's hunting us!" Suddenly I saw a lightsaber flash across the hologram and it shut off.

My eyes widened, I knew Vader was powerful, but he had just killed most of my council at once. I wasn't given much chance to collect my thoughts though as a menacing cackle filled the room.

Me, Jerec and Desann all ignited our lightsabers as the malicious laugh continued and seemed to be getting louder until the figure himself stepped into the room.

Author's Note: That's it for this chapter, I'm sorry it's a bit bad but this chapter mostly exists to set up the next one which I will try and upload later which will likely be the finale for this story. I do hope you liked it and as always, thanks for reading.
