DBZ: The Shadow of Revan (Act Two)
=============================================
"Today is a glorious day, my fellow Imperials!"
The balcony overlooking the harsh desert planet of Korriban hung high above the large crowd gathered at the large academy's steps. Standing at the edge of the railing, Darth Marr held his hands clasped behind his back. Flanked at his right and left a few feet back stood ten more Sith dressed in differing attire.
"With the mining of isotope-5, the Empire has regained its foothold in the war. Our weapons and capabilities have been bolstered to new heights, wielding weapons beyond their time against an exhausted opponent stretched too thin by the former Supreme Chancellor's offensive strategies."
Darth Marr stepped slightly to his left, leaning back.
"But today is not a day to celebrate a mere mineral. Today, a new legend steps forward as a new leader. Embolden in his returned power, backed by his most trusted ally."
Darth Marr fully stepped back, pausing to turn to the approaching man walking forward. Vegetto's own eyes remained narrowed as he took Marr's former position, crossing his arms with Gogeta soon arriving next to him. Darth Marr bowed his head slightly, the other ten Sith following suit.
"All hail the new Emperor!"
The clamor of each individual in the crowd below rang up to the balcony itself, the sound of a million knees dropping to the sand echoing while Vegetto looked on. The Potara fusion smirked slightly for a moment, uncrossing his arms.
"Rise, fellow Sith. For we still have much to accomplish: our enemies continue to struggle against us. Our obstacles are severe, but they are known to us!"
Vegetto reached out, clenching his right gloved hand into a fist.
"The universe is ours to grasp! Let us reach!"
The crowd erupted into an applause, the chants continuing.
"For the Emperor! For the Emperor!"
"For the Empire!"

Complete Backstory will be editted into here at a future date! For now, those of you that remember the story just jump on in! I'll be putting in the last post from the site before people started leaving!

[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]The Sith lowered his arm at the result of his attack, watching Gen dodge his energy attack. He had moved forward slightly, but stopped at the sudden explosion of air caused by Raditz's dash. The Sith smirked, turning towards Raditz with his chest directly pointed towards him.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Goku blinked, staying still for a moment as Raditz charged forward.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Huh...that sounds like something I would say...[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]The larger Saiyan then smirked, bending his knees slightly.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]"Might as well give it a shot!"[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Goku erupted into a roar, moving up to Raditz's left in a dark purple dash with his own fist reeled back, charging towards the Sith.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]============[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Beerus rubbed his chin in response, still keeping his concerned expression.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]"I meant now, when you were fighting the Sith. I know I felt your godly energy from this far out in the universe."[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Vegeta kept his arms crossed, moving slightly over towards Future Brachi and grasping onto her shoulder.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]"You did. Whatever that strange force did before, it wasn't present when we fought against the Sith on Korriban."[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Beerus half smiled in response, moving up to Vegeta's side and grasping his shoulder.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]"Then I shall accompany you as well, it seems we'll have quite the entourage when we engage these enemies."[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Dread Master Raptus then crossed his arms behind his back.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]"For now, Brachi's ascended form will give you the edge needed to face this Sith and Vegetto's attention is preoccupied elsewhere. Your minds are still not ready to bear the responsibility of the greater good yet, but perhaps defeating these Sith on Tython may give you more insight. When there is a break in the fighting, return here and we may pass judgement once more."[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]======================================[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Vegetto nodded his head once, placing his hands on his hips.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]"And now that you understand that, then you understand our own subjects. They are not servants, but as you put, see the same vision that we do. That of peace, order, stability at a cost to something that they have not earned: freedom."[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]He then lowered his arms back down to his sides.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]"Those who seek freedom have the ability to earn it, but many do not want it. They want their needs satisfied, and they know they sacrifice those needs when freedom is given to them rather than earned. It is why I still must fight: this misguided morality is still poisoning this universe. If left unchecked, it will return and we will see it's deadly effects in another war drawn out for hundreds of years."[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Gogeta kept his frown, sighing lightly.[/font]
[font='Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]"Perhaps it's better that we send her home? She and Junior would probably prefer to get away from all of this, maybe we can just teleport them back so they won't have to get involved in all of this."[/font]
