Anakin Skywalker has been seeing strange visions which would cause him to wake up with a feeling of dread or fear. Often the young padawan would seek help by asking his master for assistance in the matter.

Often times during the end of the visions he would wake up screaming causing others around to take notice. They would ask why he often wakes up like this which in turn caused the rumors to spread.

Now, however, the chosen one was standing next to his master in front of a doorway while his Master had a worried face.

"Anakin you must be respectful to the masters and answer all their questions to the best of your ability. Normally they would just inform me to pass a message on to you but due to the situation, they want answers directly from you. Do you understand?" Obi-Wan Kenobi normally would not be as worried but Anakin was already on a rocky start.

He was much older than when someone would be initiated into the order while also having attachment to his mother due to being such an age.

"Master I know all of this, I just don't understand why I was brought here. I've been doing everything you told me and I've trained diligently during my time here." at the time Anakin had no idea why he was called here, a while ago he was woken up from another nightmare, and after making his way towards his classes the Temple Guards stopped him and he found himself waiting for an audience with the Jedi Council.

Soon enough the doors opened causing both Anakin and Obi-Wan to step forwards only for his master to be stopped by the guards signaling that they only wished for his padawan to enter.

Anakin who entered alone once again stood surrounded by Masters sitting on the chairs. He could not help but remember back to when he first stood here when he showcased his force potential.

Jedi Master Mace Windu was the first to speak up.

"Padawan Skywalker, the council has called you here today for you to explain your supposed 'Visions' that showcase a battle." Anakin was quick to put things together and understood why he was 'asked' to be here.

"Um, which battle Master Windu?" instead of the black man responding the one who spoke up was a green creature who looked similar to Master Yoda.

"Seen many you have? Explain events would you?" The council gazed towards Yaddle for a short moment before returning the attention to Anakin.

"Um, well I've seen mostly fights within space but now I'm lately seeing fights happening on the ground between white armored soldiers with Jedi leading them against large metal men who were much taller." Yaddle nodded her head and beckon young Skywalker to start from there.

"Well from what I can tell it shows myself much older so I think it's quite a bit into the future. I would often hear the term General from the soldiers who looked identical underneath the helmet." Anakin then formed a hesitant look on his face as he recalled the enemy but described them in detail.

"They would wear suits of mechanized armor which have a passing resemblance to medieval full-plate armor, and they are often brightly painted and ornately decorated, they carried large weapons that fired solid matter instead of the lasers we use now. Compared to the white soldiers who looked small in comparison the metal men were huge..." fear appeared on Skywalkers face as he began describing the events that would take place.

"The metal men also carried swords that had moving metal jagged teeth and would cut the white armored soldiers down with ease... They would march forwards even if there was an injured white armored soldier beneath them resulting in the soldiers being crushed... They would often say 'For the Imperium' or 'Glory to the God-Emperor' and the ground battles usually ended with a large metal man stabbing his sword through a Jedi's chest and lifting them upwards as blood would spray out followed by their guts as I watched the life drain from their eyes..." Grand Master Yoda suddenly rose his hand which was to signaled the child that he was allowed to stop.

"Thank you, leave the council room you may." Everyone understood why the Grand Master ordered this, Anakin was slowly but surely leading up toward a mental breakdown, and not wanting to worry about the boy being enticed by the Dark Side they stopped it.

Once Anakin left the room, a dried skin figured covered with white hair spoke up. This figure was the snakelike Thisspiasian, Oppo Rancisis.

"If the words the child spoke of, are to be true then I suggest locating this 'Imperium' and initiate contact. Visions are not absolute and we could derail an oncoming war. We are keepers of the peace and should show our sincerity." Mace Windu then spoke up after he finished his sentence.

"If and IF the child had a vision then why have we not noticed such an advanced government? The child indicated that his visions showed an older version of himself but he never indicated by how much... How could a known government amass an army capable of overwhelming the republic to the state we would be required to step in? This is also not taking into the account of the soldiers we were with." Yaddle then opened her mouth and provide an answer.

"Within Unknown Regain they may appear, unbeknownst to each other we may." Then a figure wearing a breathing mask spoke up with concern.

"If the Republic made first contact with this 'Imperium' and left a horrible first experience then I believe a war would be likely to occur. I agree with locating this force and we ourselves conduct the first contact." one by one the other Master discussed their thoughts on the matter until they agreed on first validating this news by sending a group of Jedi to scout the unknown region.

Meanwhile, Marcus was still planetside on Jakku 'helping' the locals by giving out food. Those who got the opportunity to meet him expressed their sincere thanks but Marcus simply told them the same thing.

"I follow the God-Emperors will, I also follow a code to help those in need such as you and your families." He glued a small to his face but in actuality, he wanted off this planet because he hated the heat and sand blowing around him.

'I don't know if remaining on my ship negatively affected me or that this planet is simply terrible to be on... Nevertheless, I want to the population to adore me, I want to say that the Emperor granted me wisdom and everyone would listen to my command regarding 'his wisdom'. Hey, perhaps I could take some acting lessons from our good old grampa Palpatine...' Soon enough Marcus began thinking of the next major project he wanted to begin working on.

'Now how the hell am I going to recreate the Chapters and Space Marines in general...'
