Reborn Into Star Wars

Chapter 7 - Battle of Yavin

Sidious looked at me with an expression filled with aspiration

"Do you accept the Dark Side"

"Yes" 

 Honestly, what did he expect me to say, I want to live, and the dark side is badass. Seriously their force powers are amazing, and their philosophy is much better than the Jedi's, unfortunately their evil. Though if I'm gonna be honest this is a great start for learning the force.

  Sidious began to smile "Vader, start training him in the morning" He looked towards me "what is your name" I went with my earth name. "Emmett Law" He looked at me with a light in his evil eyes. "I have a job for you after your training is complete, it's something that I would like to have done, but I don't have the time myself. After your training you must hunt down and capture a young man named Ezra Bridger, and his group of rebels. You can kill the rebels if you wish, but Ezra must be captured."

(A/N It took me forever to figure out how Rebels fit into the timeline)

  Wait… that's cannon? 'Well yeah, if I recall, after disney took over everything, they made the majority of it non-canon. All but Clonewars, Rebels, and the movies.' Either way it was real, and I had to face Ezra Bridger, but that was for later. There was a buzz behind me that seemed to come from the large metal door. Sidious frowned "come in"

  Grand Moff Tarkin walked through the doorway, he looked rather nervous. He gulped and started to speak "Lord, it seems that the rebels have escaped with the princess" he paused analyzing the emperor's expression and then continued "we also have reason to believe that they have the Death Star plans" Sidious arched his brows in an upset expression, then after less than a second he went back to his vacant stare and turned towards me "it seems we will have to postpone your training. Tell me, do you have flight experience" "I won the Tarisian Season Opener swoop race" I know not the smartest thing to say, but being here reminds me of all things old republic. "Swoop racing? I am not familiar with the Tarisian Season Opener, you must have good instincts regardless, you will be on Vader's Tie squadron. Vader is the best pilot in the galaxy, live up to him." he paused for a few seconds then spoke again "You are dismissed, Tarkin escort him to his quarters, come back to me afterwards."

  I sat in my quarters squealing like a girl. All of this was so cool, and I was giddy.  First of all, this didn't feel like I was watching a show or playing a game. The sith were scary and powerful, the force was real and I could use it, I was throwing my pillow around the room with a bit of effort and I was loving it.

  Finally tiring myself out, I layed on the slab bed and fell asleep.

-----

  "Get Up" I found myself being lifted from the bed though noone was touching me. "The Rebel Forces thought it wise to attack merely hours after obtaining plans to the Death Star, you're in my squadron" the one speaking was Darth Vader,and he did not sound pleased.

  The Tie I was assigned to was quite normal other than a dark red sith insignia painted on the back. The squadron was suited up quickly and lifted off. It took me a minute to figure out the controls, it was kind of like flying a bush plane (I learned the basics when reading the book Hatchet) the steering handle had buttons on each side to shoot. I got the hang of it easily. What's important is the battle at hand, Vader did most of it though. I managed to hit a Y-wing, but that was it. What was interesting was when a third group of rebels rushed the trench, the trench was an area on the Death Star that didn't have any external defenses, it led directly towards the space stations exhaust ports.

  The X-wings soared down the trench and we gave chase, Vader immediately fired destroying one of the three rebel sh.i.p.s. Gliding through the trench me and the three other pilots dodged debris as we flew towards the remaining sh.i.p.s. Vader shot down another ship, I would say that I was revolted by the deaths taking place, but I didn't feel anything. 

  We were zooming towards the final ship, this was Luke Skywalker. The man I had previously traveled with, a myth and a legend. To my right a Tie exploded, the other, to my left spiralled out of control into Vader's ship. Vader being knocked from the Death Star, and me being the last their pulled back and flew towards vader's ship.
