DISCLAIMER: I don't own STAR WARS, get over it. Wait that doesn't make sense, never mind. STAR WARS is owned by Lucasfilm and Disney.

Please Note that this story takes place immediately after ROTJ, and does not take into account Episode VII, seeing as it hasn't come out yet, accept that I didn't finish this first chapter until after Episode VII came out and I saw it, for reasons that become obvious later. So disregard that first part.

This story can also be found on Archive of Our Own.

Please review.

It was quiet on the forest Moon of Endor, peaceful. This was in contrast to how things were less than 24 hours ago, when those on the moon celebrated their Greatest Victory over their great enemy, the Galactic Empire.

The sun was just beginning to rise, and most were asleep. Only one individual dared to be awake at this Hour. This individual was Lone Jedi Knight, Luke Skywalker.

He had quite a lot on his mind. So much had happened in so little time. He confirmed his Father still has good in him, and had lost him just as fast. Found out he had a Twin Sister, who is in fact one of his closest friends, who he had kissed once, in a not so brother/sister way. He was the Lone survivor of an order of peacekeeping Knights with mystical powers. And he had just helped win what was a key victory in the War against the evil Galactic Empire. He honestly didn't know where to go from here. He was lost, for the first time in a long time he just didn't know what to do. Just as Skywalker thought the effort useless, he sensed a presence behind him, one he did not recognize. With speed only available to those who could use the Force, he turned around and pulled out his Lightsaber. What he found was an odd figure in a cloak, transparent and blue, Not unlike the Force ghosts of his two Masters and his Father. The difference was he didn't know this individual, it could be anyone. This being the case, he didn't quite know how to address him, or even begin to talk to him. Fortunately he did not have to.

"Good! Despite your state of mind you are still quite aware of your surroundings. It would be disgraceful otherwise."

Luke honestly did not know how to respond to this, was it supposed be a complement? He had to try, at least.

"Ah, Hello. Who are you? Why are you here?"

With this, the figure seemed to shake it's head for some reason.

"So impatient, you get that from your Father you know. As for my presence here, Well, I've come to give you a gift, of sorts. Come, walk with me."

Seeing no reason not to, the young Skywalker decided to go along with the strange ghost.

Thy began to move along the Rope bridges of the Ewok village. It was quiet, and for awhile, no one spoke. After about 15 minutes of silently walking, the cloaked figure finally uttered a word once again.

"Don't be nervous, you have questions. Ask them."

Given the go-ahead, Luke at last began to ask the questions that desperately clamored in his mind.

"Who are you?" was the first.

The figure seemed to ponder for a moment, humming as he did so. As this was taking place, Luke got a better chance to study his odd walking companion. The Figure was about 5'4. His cloak was closed and his hands were unseen, and a majority of his face was was very well hidden. Really, there wasn't much to see. He however feel that whoever he was talking to had unimaginable Power in the Force.

After a few seconds the Cloaked one finally answered.

"I'm afraid I can't tell you anything much at this time, not even my name. Know this though, I am here by the Will of the Force. As for a name, for now just call me Gramps."

Because of the vagueness of the answer Luke pondered over what to ask next, and eventually he came to the only conclusion he could.

"Why are you here, uh, Gramps?"

Gramps immediately responded.

"You see Luke, you & your Friends have earned a break of sorts. Therefor, I've decided to reward you. You also deserve certain information, concerning your past. It may even help prepare you for the Future. However, if you wish to be granted this reward, you must first gather the following individuals. Your sister, Leia Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Lando Calrisson. Can you do this? "

Luke hesitated, after all he didn't really know this individual. How did he know that Gramps wasn't just trying to lead him and his friends into a trap. He could very well be telling the truth though, after all he clearly wasn't the Emperor, and Luke just couldn't see how someone he had only just met could possibly want to get back at him for something. Especially since he wasn't technically alive.

"Alright, I'll go do that."

This seemed to please Gramps, and he said as much.

"Good, meet me in your quarters that the Ewoks have lent to you. There we shall continue." Gramps then disappeared and Luke went off to gather his friends. It took a lot of explaining on his part, but eventually Luke managed to convince them and they all went to Luke's hut to meet the supposed ghost. However, after waiting for more then 10 minutes the others were beginning to get impatient. Particularly Han Solo.

"Alright kid, if this is some kind of bad joke to try and fool us for a laugh, then it worked for a little while! But if you think we're just going to sit here, then you got another thing coming! "

Just a solo was going to continue his rant, Gramps appeared in the center of the hut startling all of the occupants. Solo in particular fell over.

"Good. You're all here, I wasn't entirely sure he would be able to convince you. \"

Most present didn't know what to think or say. Luke being the only one who knew him, if only for a couple minutes, stepped forward.

"Gramps, I've brought them. Now what?"

Gramps shook his head back and forth.

"Still so impatient. Regardless, Thank you. However, there is still one more thing we must do. "

Before Luke could ask, Han decided to interrupt.

"Now hold up! Who are you? what are you? If you're trying to hurt the kid I'll ... " He was interrupted himself before he could go any further.

"Relax Han Solo, my intentions are pure. I merely want to show you all something, that is all."

Leia was the next to speak up.

"And what would that be exactly? ]"

Gramps merely turned to her and grinned before saying "Not yet Dear Leia, we have but one thing to do before we begin. ]"

Lando feeling left out asked "And that would be what exactly?"

He seemed to want to leave them in suspense, as he didn't immediately answer.

"I intend to have a few more join us in this endeavor, However! Without a physical body that will not be possible. Therefor I will require both Luke, and Leia's assistance to accomplish this."

"Wait! What?"

"(Leia's Force sensitive?! That explains a lot.)"

"I knew It! Listen here you ..."

These responses came from Lando, Chewie, and Han respectively. The first two were more focussed on Leia's new found Force ability, though how this didn't occur them when they found out that she and Luke were Siblings I don't know, meanwhile Han being paranoid assumed the worst, which caused an argument to happen between him and Leia. This went on for a while, to the point that the other four occupants of the room just watched for about five minutes. Eventually it was Luke who put a stop to it.

"ENOUGH!"

The Jedi seemed to use the Force to magnify his voice, which appeared to deafen all but Gramps. Luke waited a minute to continue.

"Listen Han, I believe we can trust him. I don't sense that he has any ill intentions. So just just relax will yah?"

Han almost seemed to deflate because of this, he then raised his arms in surrender and sat down.

"Alright kid. You seem to know what you're doing, so I'll let you do it."

Once that was settled everybody pretty much turned to Gramps. Seeing that they were expecting his direction, he gave it to them.

"Very good, Now Luke & Leia will face each other. Now take each others hands and close your eyes. You must concentrate. Good! I feel it, you are almost completely one with the Force. This where I will come in." He then walked over to the twins and put his blue spectral hand on one shoulder each. "Now you will begin to feel a pull, almost like your stomach is being pulled out through your naval." at this everyone but the twins did a double take. "Yes I know, quite gruesome. Regardless this means it's working. That also means that our final guests should be arriving any minute now. There might be some backlash, so prepare yourselves." as this was said the room began to subtly shake, and the shaking steadily grew more noticeable and intense, until finally it was impossible to ignore. While the three individuals in the room without a Force connection began to get nervous, Luke and Leia continued to concentrate. This finally calumniated in what they would later describe as one of the most amazing things they have ever seen.

What occurred was that A Great bright bluish-white light came over the entire room, and not a second later Luke an Leia were thrown to opposite sides of the room, and Gramps appeared to collapse.

Something else also happened, six new individuals appeared to drop from the sealing. At least four of them appeared to be human, with the last 2 being A female Togruta of at least 30, and an unidentifiable individual dressed all in black and wearing a mask. The first 4 seemed to consist of three males and one female. Two of the males appeared to be Caucasian, with the third being dark skinned. The one human female was wearing clothes more suitable to the desert than that on a forest planet. They seemed to range in age from teenager to their mid 40's. One thing that stood out to those already present in the room, was that the seemingly oldest human male was wearing an Imperial officer's uniform. They were so distracted by this that most of them completely missed the one with the mask standing up and turning around, going for something on his belt. In fact the only ones who really noticed this were Luke and Gramps. Luckily, Gramps managed to act in time.

The masked one pulled out what appeared to be A lightsaber, and proceeded to try and attack the human girl. This failed however as Gramps swiftly moved in front of her, and blocked the saber with his hand, the blade stalled in his palm. He then seemed to use the Force to pull the saber into his left hand, and moved it to the masked ones neck.

"That would be most unwise my young Friend. I suggest you sit down and relax. I will explain your presence here in a moment, also, if you could remove your mask for the time being that would be much appreciated. "The figure seemed quite reluctant, but decided it was best to comply. So he swiftly removed his mask revealing his face, which showed that he was at least in his twenties, with black hair and brown eyes.

Now that he at least had the boy restrained, so to speak, Gramps turned around towards the Togruta, who also had lightsabers pointed at him.

"I would appreciate it if you showed that you had more common sense than the boy Ahsoka, as it would be unadvised to attempt any threatening actions against me."

The woman, Ahsoka, seemed to be caught off guard by this and inquired about it.

"What's going on? How do you know my name?"

"If you would just take a seat, and give me your weapons, I'd be happy to explain. I know you must have questions. Search your feelings, I'm sure you'll come to realize I'm telling the truth."

Doing as he said in all but handing over her lightsabers, giving him the benefit of the doubt until otherwise. Everybody else decided to follow her example, except the Imperial officer and the young man in black. They opted to stand on either side of the group.

As he observed those present, insuring that for the time being there wouldn't be a problem. Seeing that now things were relatively calm, he began to speak.

"To those who have only just arrived, brought here by my power, you are here to observe History! That is to say, you'll be viewing certain historical events in the form of a few Holo-Films. Some of you may see this as pointless, but the reason I do this is that I feel you could, that is most of you, could benefit one way or another from observing the whole of certain events. I'll leave you to form whatever ideas about these things on your own. If we are to move on to the main event, as it were, we first need to clarify certain points. Firstly, that the events we will be in intervals of time, spanning anything from a few days to almost a full standard year. We Will not be observing the whole of that time, Just the key bits of course. Each interval will be cut into a chapter, or Episode if you will. Secondly, Time will also have moved between each Episode, differing each time. Thirdly, Each one of you will be depicted, except for one. That would be our young Togruta in the audience" for a moment everyone's focus was on Ahsoka, Gramps quickly changed that "THIS IS NOT BECAUSE SHE LACKS SIGNIFICANCE IN ANYWAY! BUT, Rather that her part in the, story if you will occurs between 2 separate Episodes, Twice even. However, at a certain point, her absence will be shown to have had a greater impact on the Galaxy as a whole, then any of us could have ever imagined. Fourth, Some of the Episodes won't occur for some of you for another 30 years. For 4 of you though these particular events only just begun. 4 of you, have moved 30 years back in time. "He paused once again to allow them a moment to take it in, then he shut them down "QUEIT! I am not finished. For those 4 specifically, along with our 2 other guests, you are currently on the Endor moon, less than 24 hours after the 2nd Death-Star-2's destruction. Fifth & last, I shall begin to introduce you. To my far left is Kylo Ren, next we have Ahsoka Tano, Chewbacca, "At this the 2 looked at each other and realized that they had met during the Clone Wars, and thus began to reconnect "We also have Han Solo, Poe Dameron, Finn, Rey, Leia Skywalker, Though she is known by the surname Organa, her brother Luke, Jedi Knight, and Admiral: Firmus Piett, who died about about 11 hours ago. AND YES, The Force can do that. You will all now be given a break for 15 standard minutes."

Some were in shock, others focussed on certain specific things. Like Ahsoka who was done talking to Chewie, and was now focussing on 2 things, specifically the name Skywalker, and how it related to two people in the room. Even if she had never met either in person, she had heard of both, how could she not. One had destroyed the first Death-Star, not to mention was a Pilot with a excellent reputation, and the other had been raised as the Princess of a entire planet, not to mention was a leader of the Rebellion. And yet, they were siblings who shared the name of her former Master. One was even a Jedi.

Meanwhile Gramps was headed towards said siblings. Once he finally reached them. Luke saw him first and began to talk.

"Gramps I gotta say, this is not what I expected." Luke then noticed something was different about him, it took him a second to realize what it was. Gramps had a body. "You .. You're alive?"

Now that they could see him closely, it was true, he had a physical body.

"No, not exactly Luke. Consider it a side effect, to allow this task to be accomplished, the Force required that I be bound to you all in this physical form."

Both were clearly listening, and this time it was Leia who inquired.

"Why, it seems like an odd condition."

"You could say that. You see, I have certain duties. That being case, being here and insisting on this, especially since it wasn't really necessary, meant that I had to relinquish something. Taking this physical form binds a good deal of my power, which will go towards showing the aforementioned events. There's also the fact that truly returning a man to life costs a hefty fee."

This reminded the 2 that an Imperial Admiral was now was in their midst. Leia addressed this.

"Yes, speaking of which, why is the Admiral here?"

Sensing a dangerous level of hostility, he went about to quell that.

"Admiral Piett is to offer us the unique perspective of an Imperial. He is also quiet rational and shall we say, likable. And for more than a year he was the chief officer aboard your Father's Ship, the Executor."

For a moment both froze, as while they had told their Friends of their relation to each other, they brought up no mention of Vader. Because of this Leia stiffened her shoulders and quite cooly asked "I believe Gramps, that you came over here for a reason?"

"Yes I did, I wanted to introduce you both to someone. Follow me." Strangely his method was less to quell her hostility, but to redirect it towards himself.

He began to walk across the room towards a Specific individual.

"Ahsoka" this caught the attention of the Togruta who had still been pondering the twins. She found herself caught off guard, as those she was thinking of were headed her way with their, host? "Ahsoka, I would like to introduce you to Luke and Leia Skywalker. Luke & Leia, may I introduce you to Ahsoka Tano, Former Jedi, and your Father's Apprentice at the time."

While he seemed to be trying to highlight Former Jedi, all that stood out was the Latter. It was strangely awkward, until someone spoke.

"So, you are Anakin's children?"

Luke quickly replied " Yes. Were you really my ... Our Father's Apprentice? " Despite not looking at them, Leia clearly was very Curious.

"Yes, for a time."

Seeing that his work was done, Gramps walked toward Kylo Ren and stood at his side. Ren seemed annoyed, but did not protest. This how they waited out the rest of the break.

STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS - STAR WARS

It was time to begin, everybody was sitting down. It was somewhat tense.

Gramps stood in front of everyone, directly behin him was their viewing apparatus, a totally black square that seemed to cover the entire wall without any form of suspension and that didn't seem to be attached to anything.

Gramps raised a hand and then began to speak.

"Would anybody like to ask any questions?"

No one moved for a second, then Finn raised his hand.

"Yes Finn?"

"I was just wondering how long this was gonna take, because you know, a lot of the people here have important things they need to do."

Despit not actually seeing his face, everybody could tell he was smirking. "Not including yourself." It wasn't a question.

Finn didn't miss a beat. "Of course not, I'm in a coma!" That caught some people's attention.

"I think we'll get along fine my boy, as for you're question, It seems I forgot to mention this. You see, as long we're here, no time will move forward, and when it's all over you shall be returned. Anythg else?"

Rey then also raised her hand.

"Go ahead Rey."

"What about sleep and food?" This definitely caught everyone attention.

"Ah, yes. While you won't have to sleep while you're here, food will still be required. and in fact food will be provided, along with designated breaks."

Most of them began to murmur, and one comment by Lando stood out.

"It feels like we're being held hostage with luxury accommodations."

Han followed up with "Lando, that is what's happening to us." This got a chuckle or two.

"Is that about it?" Asked Gramps who still sounded like there was no rush.

Everybody pretty much nodded at this.

"Good" Gramps then went to sit himself and it began.

It was quiet, nothing appeared to be happening. Getting impatient, Han began to speak.

"Well! Where's the dam Holo . . .

Then.

STAR WARS

(Dundundundundundundun, the epic theme music began, along with the words, you know.)

At this point everybody just stared as the Words seemed to moved toward the middle distance.

Episode IV

A NEW HOPE

No sooner had the Episode number appeared on screen, that somebody spoke up, it was Han.

"Wow! Time out! Pause!" Interestingly that's exactly what the Holo did.

Gramps sighed and turned to the smuggler.

"Yes Han?"

"Why does this say episode 4? Why not start with 1?"

"In this case you are right Han, we are not starting in chronological order. First we shall witness episodes 4 and 5."

"Why?" everybody else kind wanted to know that too.

"To make things more, interesting."

At this Han mouthed the word "Oh" and turned back to the screen, Rolling his eyes.

Seeing that the conversation was done Gramps also turned back to the screen and said the word "play" and thus it was fulfilled.

It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire.

During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire's ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored space station with enough power to destroy an entire planet.

Pursued by the Empire's sinister agents, Princess Leia races home aboard her starship, custodian of the stolen plans that can save her people and restore freedom to the galaxy...

Okay that's finally done, so happy I am about it. I actually started writing this months ago, but waited until I saw The Force Awakens first. This was so that I had a good enough grasp of the characters that I could write them. The new ones I mean. For things happening in the movie, the format you've seen so far is what I'll be using. They'll be watching all Star Wars movies. That includes the new ones. The order will be 4 and 5, then the prequels, then 6, and finally the new trilogy. I will not be including any the spinoff films.

Also I never realized how short the opening crawl was. And once again, I do not own STAR WARS, it is property of Lucasfilm and Disney

Anyway, please review, and I hope you enjoyed the first chapter of this here tale.
