Chapter 5 - (Kashyyyk.)

Chapter five:

Engines roared and guns fired as the battle of Kashyyyk began. Emperor Palpatine and Cale Lestin stood behind the lines waiting for the signal of the Stormtroopers.

In their camouflaged uniforms the Stormtroopers snuck behind enemy lines without a sound. The leader signaled to one of his subordinates to aim his rocket launcher towards the gate switch. He aims. Swoosh. The missile left and blew up the switch but the gate did not open. Gun fire then rang out from the Wookies and Stormtroopers.

"This is FX-12. There on to us they had a decoy switch were going to...

Just then a Wookie helicopter appeared before them with a Wookie who had a chain gun in his hands. He smiled and growled.

"FX-12 are you there FX-12." The lieutenant could hear the gun shots in the background. "Inform Emperor Palpatine." Said the lieutenant.

Emperor Palpatine watched on as the wall still stood. He started to become pissed when they came back he would yell at them for taking so long.

A Stormtrooper walked up behind Emperor Palpatine and said. "Emperor Palpatine the Commandos have been killed."

Emperor Palpatine responded with. "Then I will do it myself." As Emperor Palpatine began to walk towards the Wookies stronghold Darth Zeth ran up to him.

"Master let me go." Said Cale Lestin.

"And why do you wish to go in my place?" Asked Emperor Palpatine.

"I sense that you do not trust me Master that I am a liability to you. So let me prove my loyalty and strength to you." Said Cale Lestin.

Emperor Palpatine stood there for a minute and at that moment saw himself when Darth Plagueis was teaching him.

He sighed and said. "You have one minute then I will take over. Take that detpack over there and this." Emperor Palpatine handed him a double bladed crimson red lightsaber. "You'll need it and may the Force be with you."

He bowed and said. "I will not disappoint you my Master."

With that Darth Zeth leaped into the air and on to the battlefield. For the first time in a long time Emperor Palpatine trusted someone besides herself in battle. Darth Zeth had learned a lot in a short amount of time. As he looked on he knew he would have to join the battle or the troops would not survive. He hoped that Darth Zeth would destroy the switch before then.

Darth Zeth jumped into one of the huts attached to the trees and ignited the crimson red lightsaber and destroyed all of the Wookies inside, while using Shii-cho the first lightsaber form that concentrates on disarming a opponent rather than harming them. He would have to sneak in from the side because no matter how powerful the crimson red lightsaber was it could not deflect hundreds of blast at once. He jumped from pillar to pillar and on top of the fortress the Wookies had built without a sound.

Emperor Palpatine couldn't stand there any longer if he did the Wookies would get the upper hand. He jumped and glided down to the sands of the battlefield.

Emperor Palpatine had entered the battle and he would make sure that they knew it.

He used Force Push to push about 20 Wookies back. He Force Choked one Wookie and choked him until he became unconscious and then let him go. Emperor Palpatine was powerful but he couldn't take on an army.

Cale Lestin was the Empire's only hope.

Cale Lestin felt it was time and he jumped down and battled Wookie after Wookie getting scratched and shot a couple of times but he still battled on until out of the corner of his eye he spotted the gate switch.

He threw the detpack and detonated it. The fortress wall then fell. He had did it with time to spare.

A shot then rang out and grazed his shoulder. Cale Lestin yelled out in pain and gave the Wookie and angry glare before he killed it with blue Force Lightning.

When he looked out over the barricade he saw hundreds of Stormtroopers jumping off ships and capturing Wookies. Emperor Palpatine saw the wall fall and looked up to see his young apprentice bruised and breathing hard.

He looked down at Emperor Palpatine and he nodded.

They had won.
