Jack walked out on to the balcony in his office taking with him the holo com as he spoke to Shaak Ti. "What are the status of the clones. Any issues with the training or genetic modification done to them."Shaak Ti shuck her head no," So far everything is processing normally. The changes to their aging have settled after 5 more years they will at age 25 and should age slower than a normal human. It should give them an extra 120 years."
Jack nodded," Its the lest we could do make sure their training also makes time for them to develop hobbies they won"t always be fighting and I am going to need them to become functioning members of society after everything is said and done."
Shaak Ti smiled," I will see it done...when is the next time you are coming here...its lonely without you my love." Jack almost spit up the tea he had just taken a sip of," Dear this channel is monitored...we will take about it later Anakin is in his finally days of training with Master. I will call you later and tell you about, for now I have to get ready for my meeting with my little green friend."
Shaak Ti laughed having achieved her goal before signing off. Jack sighed it had been five years since Yoda had shown up on Earth. The Jedi Master had come to Jack to inform him about a force vision he had had. One where a faction of jedi would cause the fall of the republic. He had come to Jack because in his vision it was Jack and the Mandalorians that saved what they could of the republic and created a new jedi order.
Jack had been shocked, this had meant that the time line had changed despite the efforts he had done to try and keep it the same. With that revelation Jack saw no need to play games with Palpatine and told the jedi that the sith that had clouded the force was the man. Yoda had not been surprised as the man had disappeared right after Naboo had been freed from the Trade Federation.
However after he left the corruption in the Senate had gotten progressively worse. It had been to the point that many planets had talked about leaving the republic. Jack warned the jedi Master that he should have the chancellor start to develop the military of the Republic and prepare for war.
The jedi had at frist been against the whole idea saying it was not the jedi way to get involved in the inner workings of the Republic. Just as it looked like Jack would be fighting this up coming war alone with his people his Master appeared before him and Yoda.
The old jedi had been well versed in the jedi of the old republic and instantly recognizes who the force ghost was in front of him. Revan wasted no time in telling him it was these same actions that the jedi of this time where taking that caused the rift between him and his order in the past. This information was never mentioned in the records of the past.
Yoda was silent as Revan explained the faults of this new jedi order. He also explained that unless he changed how things were more and more jedi would leave the order. That had been especially true of the jedi that had come to Earth. Once they had been exposed to what the earth Mandalorian force sensitive were learning they saw the flaws in the teachings of their order.
The talk between them had lasted two days, and by the end of it Yoda had agreed to talk to the chancellor as well as the rest of the jedi council. Things need to change if they stood any chance of changing the vision Yoda had saw. So with the plan to meet in five years to discuss their progress the jedi had left with a renewed sense of purpose.
Jack had his work cut out for him and over the next five years he built up all of his forces. New Mandlor as the rest of the galaxy called his world had become a major trade world. Due to the system vast mineral deposits materials flowed out of the system like water. It also helped that he had the backing of the chancellor of the republic. Who had thanks to Jack and his army secured him another term in office.
This backing had allowed him to order another 5 million clone soldiers. Jack now had the power to contend with the soon to be formed CIS. On top of that his planet now had over 4,000 force users. With the instance of his friends Jack formed the Knights of Libra from this force users. The Libra would be the bases for the new jedi order if it happen to fall in this war.
But not everything had been going so smooth. Jack had recently been b.u.t.ting heads with the Mandalorians on Mandlor quite often. They had tried on a number of occasions during the last five years to claim that they fell under the rule of the Dutchess of Mandlor. They had also tried to claim his rule as Mand"lor was illegitimate as he had not been recognized by all of their people. Jack however did not give a d.a.m.n what they had to say. The truth of the matter was they only wanted control over the army Jack had created as well as the vast wealth of the system.
None of that was going to happen so as it stood Jack was in a cold war with the Dutchess. Obi-Wan who at this point had been a friend to both the Dutchess and Jack had tried to smooth over the rising conflict between them. Jack not willing to place his friend in a bad position especially with someone he friend had taken a liking to decide he not go to war with the ignorant Mandalorians, but he had banned any of the Mandalorians loyal to the Dutchess any access to his system.
Though things had only seemed like business and trouble things had not been all bad during these past five years. Shmi had remarried to Qui-Gon of all people. The old man had left the jedi order a few years after the battle of Naboo and had decided to settle on the planet to help the people. With Shmi and Anakin always on the planet visiting Padma the two had some how gotten together.
Though it had been a surprise for Jack and Anakin the two brothers were happy that their mother found someone especially after everything thing she had been through. His friends Trish and Keith had gotten married to each other at some point. Neither had bothered to tell Jack. Something that he reminded them constantly over.
Anakin and Padma relationship had started to heat up which was something that pleased Jack, atlest Luke and Lelia would be born and he had not screwed that up. As for Jack he and Shaak Ti had been together for the last four years. The jedi had left the order about two years ago. Jack had introduced his lover to his Master and she had begun to train with the test of his order soon after.
While having these pleasant flash backs of the past Jack"s thoughts had been interpret by the sound of his office door opening. Turning to face the person Jack was not suprising by his visitors. "Master Yoda , Master Windu on time as always, shall we begin."
With things going right for Jack and his Mandalorians things for Sidious had been going anything but good. The Dark lord of the Sith was forced to leave Republic s.p.a.ce the moment he lost his bid for Chancellor of The republic. He need a new plan, and with his current apprentice out of commission he was not short any extra help. He had started to gather all of the planets that had been "wronged" by policies he had help craft while he was in the Senate.
Even if he could not control the war that was about to happen he would still use the chaos to rise to power. He had begun corrupting any forces users that he found. They would not be sith but they could still be used as p.a.w.ns. His greatest help had come in the form of Count Dooku. The man l.u.s.ted for knowledge and Sidious used that to star turing the man to his cause. If Maul did not recover he would atlest have a backup apprentice.
His biggest problem however had come from the leader of the new Mandalorians. This Jack Skywalker, the man had become a problem on a galactic scale. His planet had become a major trading hub in the galaxy, and try as he might he could not get any spies into the system. h.e.l.l as far as he knew not even the Hutts or Blacksuns had been able to enter they system. The whole system had become a no man"s land for any who did not have permission to be there.
The other plan he had to try and create a clone army for the republic that he could then control had also be lost. When he had tried to have the army commission under the order of protecting the republic from danger. He had been informed that an army such as that had already been commissioned and the Kaminoans were not taking any other orders at this time. If it had not been for paying the Bounty Hunters Jango Fett a huge amount he would have never even found out that it had been Jack that commission the army.
Sidious had then tried to bribe the Bounty hunters to work for him, but the man had told him no as he was already under contract and would not betray his client. It didnt help that a Jedi Master had be station on the planet already so any attempts to try and damage the process with stealth went out the window.
Sidious could only hope that the Droid army that the CIS was creating would be enough to cripple the republic. Over all the Sith Lord was not have a great last couple of years. The only good news he had was that the Nightsisters had agreed to join his cause so now he had the galaxy"s strongest dark force users on side. They would do atlest until their purpose had been fulfilled. He would have to eliminate them after he secured his rule. They would be a threat that needed to be curved. He also learned recently that the new Mandalorians and the old had some sort of animosity between them.
If he could play his cards right he might have another group of p.a.w.ns to use in this war. That"s not mentioning the rumor he heard about a possible spilt in the jedi order. Through these last five years had been bad for him. It started to look as though his luck was turning. Sidious however did not let this go to his head. He knew war was fast approaching and he had much to do to ensure that the Sith came out on top during the chaos. Then revenge would belong to him, a smile slide across his face at the thought of this. Soon the galaxy would welcome the sith once again thought the sith lord...
(A/N: and that"s vol 1 their will be a few more chapters before the war but we made it...yay)
