Star Wars VRMMO: Galactic Expedition

(I can already predict the comments. I will not have him join the CIS. He has morals and likes human rights. Also forgot to mention that part of the stuff that happened in the time skip was signing a peace treaty with the Trade Federation. Neither side was interested in the money pit that results from a drawn out conflict. I'm also changing the chain quest into a normal quest. Sorry for the short chapter. I'm tired as fuċk lmao.)

Tyler smiled. "Dooku, unfortunately I must go. There is urgent business I must attend to. Here is the contract. Please look it over and send the signed copy to the Office of Kessel's Governor."

Dooku nodded as he received the datapad from Tyler. "It was a pŀėȧsurė meeting you today Draco." He stood up.

Tyler stood up and shook Dooku's hand. "We'll be in touch. I'll be sure to let you know if I change my mind about your offer."

Dooku smiled. "I look forward to hearing from you then. Safe travels my friend."

Tyler nodded. "Thank you." He then turned and walked out of the palace at a brisk pace. He made sure to take the same route back to the spaceport that he used to reach the palace. Kai emerged from an alleyway and joined Tyler.

Tyler turned to Kai as he walked. "I trust there were no complications."

Kai nodded. "Yes master. There were a few close calls but there is no chance anyone saw me."

Tyler sighed. "I am less concerned about if anyone saw you. I have a feeling that they will still find out the true purpose of our visit. It would be best for us to make haste my padawan."

They hurried back to the spaceport and boarded their fighters before taking off to dock with their hyperspace rings. Tyler had a cruiser and escort meet them a few parsecs away from Serenno. They landed in the topside hangar and disembarked their fighters.

A guild member walked up to Tyler. "Guild Leader, welcome to the Repentance. Jiraiya reporting for duty." He stood at attention.

Tyler nodded and kept walking. "Kai, give him the data chip. I need a full analysis on the information we stole. Get it done STAT." Kai handed the chip over.

Jiraiya received the chip and nodded. "Yes sir. I'll get it done right away." He then rushed off after ordering some personnel to refuel the fighters.

Tyler and Kai walked through the cruiser and arrived at some quarters. He tossed his padawan a change of clothes. "Take a shower. We'll get briefed on our findings once we are cleaned up."

Kai nodded. "Yes master." They went into their respective rooms and cleaned up. About 20 minutes later, they emerged feeling refreshed after a much needed cleaning. They headed to the bridge.

Jiraiya was standing at the holotable. "Guild Leader, the analysis is complete."

Tyler nodded as he and Kai walked up to the table. "Show us what you found."

Jiraiya nodded. "From the data on the drive, we found one entry that is relevant. It appears to be a communication log between someone named Tyranus and the bounty hunter Mizaki Shoko."

Tyler smiled. "That is our evidence then. Is there any record of payment? That is what we need to really nail this case shut."

Jiraiya shook his head. "Unfortunately there is not. There was something about compensation but no record of it."

Tyler raised his brow. "Out with it then."

Jiraiya nodded. "In short, Tyranus instructed Mizaki to contact the Trade Federation for compensation."

Tyler sighed. "Fuck it all to hell. Why do those slimy fuċks have to be involved?"

Kai laughed. "I honestly would have been surprised if they weren't involved."

Tyler shrugged. "You are right on that one. I couldn't tell you why I didn't think they would have a hand in this."

Kai shook his head in disappointment. "It would seem that our roles have reversed."

Tyler gave Kai a look. "Is that the case now?"

Kai's expression turned gloomy. "Master, that was just a joke."

Tyler laughed. "That's better. Anyways, I think I have a plan to get our information from the Trade Federation. Jiraiya, set our course for Coruscant."

After a day's travel, they arrived in high orbit over Coruscant. Tyler and Kai boarded their fighters and landed in his private hangar after leaving their hyperspace rings with the garrisoned fleet.

Tyler stood in the hangar and smiled. "Today we will be flying in luxury. Kai, let's get on the Scimitar."

Kai's face lit up. "Really?!?!"

Tyler nodded. "Let's go." They boarded the Scimitar and sat down in the ċȯċkpit. "Now we are off to Cato Neimoidia."

After setting the navigation computer and entering hyperspace Tyler began to put his plan in motion. He equipped Darth Revan's lightsaber as his primary weapon and pulled up his hood before taking a nap.

A decent flight later, they arrived in high orbit over Cato Neimoidia. Tyler equipped a mask on his face. He had crafted it recently himself. It was made of titanium from Scarif and had some electronics including air filtration and a voice modulator.

As they dropped out of hyperspace, Tyler turned to Kai. "How much do I look like a Sith?"

Kai smiled. "I'd say it's pretty convincing. Having a red lightsaber would help though."

Tyler smirked under his mask. "I have that covered my young padawan." He unsheathed and ignited his crimson blade.

Kai raised his brow. "If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were just posing as a Jedi."

Tyler shrugged and chuckled. "Maybe I am. Who knows?"

Kai sighed. "You really aren't helping your case for why the Council hates you. Anyways, what is the plan?"

Tyler nodded. "So basically, I am going to pose as Palpy's apprentice and ask for a report on the Senate operation. While I am doing that, you will do your thing and try to get the records of the down payment. If you can't get that, at least get some dirt on the slimy boys. You just have to wait in the ship until I am out of the hangar."

Kai nodded. "Makes sense. I will do my best, master."

They landed in a hangar on Cato Neimoidia. Tyler stood up and disembarked the Scimitar. He really did look like a Sith with Revan's black, torn cloak and his other dark clothing.

Two B1 droids greeted him. "Identify yourself."

Tyler nodded. "I am Darth Zagan, Sith Lord. Bring me to whoever is in charge here."

The droid nodded and responded in a mechanical voice. "One moment sir." It opened a comm link. "Uhhh command, we have a Sith Lord named Darth Zagan here in the hangar. What should we do?"

Tyler rolled his eyes. These droids really are dumb.

The droid nodded after hearing the response. "Come with us. We'll take you to the Viceroy."

Tyler nodded before following them to the Viceroy's office. It was quite a luxurious building. There were gorgeous statues and ornate decorations lining the walls. The floors were lined with a high pile carpet. It was quite cushy to walk on and put a bounce in everyone's steps.

After a short walk, they arrived outside the Viceroy's office. The droid opened the door and Tyler stepped in. The Viceroy stood up. "Lord Zagan, welcome to Cato Neimoidia. I am Viceroy Nute Gunray. What can I do for you?"

Tyler sneered under his mask. Gunray really did sound like a lizard. "Viceroy, Lord Sidious requests a report on the Senate operation."

Gunray stiffened up a bit. "I am sure you have heard about what happened in the Senate building. It did happen a few days ago at this point."

Tyler nodded. "Yes, we heard. We want to know what is being done to finish the job."

Gunray started to get nervous. "I was not told anything about this. After we hired the bounty hunter, we thought there was nothing more to do."

Tyler shook his head. "Viceroy, Lord Sidious will be most dissatisfied."

Suddenly a red light lit up on his desk. Immediately following that, Gunray tensed up. "So how was your flight here?"

Tyler sighed. He was obviously stalling. He decided to sense the force. Gunray was extremely nervous. "It was fine. Why are you stalling?"

Sweat started to roll down Gunray's face. "I don't know what you are talking about. I am just trying to make conversation."

Tyler shook his head and stood up. He unsheathed and ignited his crimson blade. "I will ask you again and don't try to deceive me. Why are you stalling?" He pointed the blade at the Viceroy.

Gunray sunk into his chair. "Lord Zagan, let's not make any brash decisions."

Tyler sighed. He had been found out sooner than he was expecting. "I will be taking my leave now." He used the force to open the door and stormed out. He made his way through the halls and was shocked when he arrived at the main hall. At this point, Tyler was level 70.

*Level 75*

Dooku was standing at the base of the stairs. "Draco, how interesting it is to see you here. And I was thinking that you came to me in an effort to forge a friendship."

Tyler sighed again. "It would seem I have been found out. Nice to see you Dooku. How was your flight here?"

Dooku rolled his eyes. "Unfortunately, we must spare the pleasantries." He unsheathed his curved, silver lightsaber hilt. He then activated his crimson blade. "Your time has come Jedi."

Tyler smirked. "I guess it would be a disservice to Master Revan if I did not use his saber." He unsheathed Darth Revan's saber and ignited the blood red blade.

Dooku raised his brow. "Whose lightsaber is that? I thought you were a member of the Jedi Order?"

Tyler chuckled. "Oh this? I didn't steal it or anything like that. I have learned from the Sith Lord, Darth Revan. He taught me balance in the force and gave me his lightsabers."

Dooku nodded. "Then let's see the results of your training."

Tyler jumped from the top of the stairs and flipped through the air, the crimson blade hissing as it spun. He landed behind Dooku and swung his saber towards his back. Dooku quickly spun and deflected the strike.

Recovering from the deflection, Tyler swung his blade downwards and to the right, aiming to bisect Dooku's torso. Dooku easily blocked the strike and shoved out his free hand. He knocked Tyler back with a blast of telekinetic energy.

Conveniently, it pushed him further towards the hangar. At this moment, a green light lit up on Tyler's wrist comm. He smiled.

Dooku stuck out his free hand and shot lightning towards the masked Jedi. Tyler used his lightsaber to block the lightning. Dooku rushed towards him while maintaining the lightning and swung his lightsaber at Tyler's side.

Using the force with his free hand, he pulled Revan's other lightsaber to his hand and ignited the purple blade just in time to block the strike. He started slowly backpedaling as he blocked a flurry of strikes and objects thrown with the force from Dooku.

The zapping of the blades colliding was intense. Sparks were flying as their sabers scraped against the walls and various objects were smashed as they flew through the air.

After another minute of this, they approached the hangar. Tyler leaped backwards and used the force to open the doors. He then quickly backpedaled through the doorway.

Dooku scoffed. "There is no way out."

Tyler smirked under his mask. "I think you are mistaken." Listening to the warnings screaming through the force, Tyler rolled to the side as laser cannons lit up the hangar.

Dooku was blown down the hall by the blast but Tyler got away unscathed. The shots were fired from the Scimitar. Tyler unequipped his mask and ran towards the starship. The ramp was extended down so he jumped on and the Scimitar flew away.

Tyler sat down next to Kai and let out a long sigh of relief. "Phew, that was getting a little scary there."

Kai giggled. "I really saved your ȧss this time."

Tyler bonked Kai on the head with the blunt end of his lightsaber. "Oh shut up, will you?" He then closed his eyes and passed out for the remainder of the flight.

Kai woke Tyler up when they dropped out of hyperspace over Coruscant. "Where to, master?"

Tyler smiled. "Did you get what we needed?"

Kai grinned and nodded. "Yep. I was able to get the record of the down payment."

Tyler nodded. "Good job. I'll have Mizaki meet us at the Senate building. Let's head straight there."

He then called the Office of the Chancellor. "Hello, this is the Office of the Chancellor. How may I help you?"

Tyler smiled. "This is Lord Draco speaking. I am en route to report the results of my investigation to Chancellor Valorum. It is urgent so I must see him immediately. Would it be okay for me to land in his private hangar?"

The aide nodded. "He is available right now so I'll let him know. Feel free to land on the top floor hangar."

Tyler nodded. "Thank you. Be there soon." He then hung up. About 10 minutes later, Tyler, Kai, and Mizaki were standing in Valorum's office.

Tyler walked up and shook Valorum's hand. "How are you doing, Chancellor?"

Valorum smiled. "I am doing well. And yourself?"

Tyler smiled. "I am doing well. Much better now that I have finished the investigation."

Valorum's face lit up. "I was informed that you were coming to report but I was not expecting you to be done already!"

Tyler nodded. "Here is the evidence we have compiled. It appears to be a plot by the Sith Order. Count Dooku appears to be behind it. He must be Palpatine's new apprentice. I fought with him and he is definitely a Sith Lord."

Valorum nodded. "That checks out with the evidence you provided. Thank you for this. It has been a great service to the Republic."

Tyler sighed. It would seem that there was a lot more to this he could have figured out. It would have been extremely difficult to get evidence that incriminated Palpatine. Especially since he is nowhere close to a match for the Sith Lord yet. Unfortunately, it would probably be a long time before he could cross lightsabers with him before being able to come out alive.
