Chapter 55

Its been a year since the War started and the Confederacy was losing systems to the Imperium and Republic. While the Confederacy had achieved many Major victories over the Republic they had yet to win a Battle against the Imperium and were being pushed back.

John had begun invading with his fleet 3 months ago and had successfully taken many planets and systems from the Confederacy during that time. Maul had been gaining lots of power and experience during the many battles and even became a respected leader among the Imperium soldiers and was known as the Red Demon to his enemies.

Maul was powerful but not ready to fight Mace Windu Head on but in due time he will. John didn't find any more powerful Darkside users to mind control or any other people since nobody stood out among the enemies.

Count Dooku had attempted to stop the Imperiums advance by leading a fleet to reconquer a planet that was recently taken by the Imperium but when he arrived his fleet was destroyed and the remaining droids had landed on the planet along with Dooku.

John had Maul lead a small army to defeat the remaining droid army and capture Dooku. But it was a trap as Dooku was nowhere to be found among the droids and the droids had set up mines and traps everywhere. But thanks to their armor the Imperium soldiers survived.

It was later that John found out that Dooku was never on the Fleet and he was actually invading another planet and this fleet was a distraction while Dooku invaded another planet that was conquered by the Imperium.

instead of chasing Dooku around the Galaxy, John had Hacket divert a fleet to deal with Dooku while he continues invading and occupying worlds.

Another 6 months later and the Confederacy was on its last knees as John had their final planet surrounded by a blockade.

Dooku was already captured and taken prisoner by the Imperium. General Grevious was killed in battle by Anakin during a battle that turned the tides of the war on the Republics' side. So for the last 3 months of the war, the Republic was gaining momentum as they were winning the war against the Confederacy.

But they forgot that the Imperium was also at war with the Confederacy which resulted in some small skirmishes between the Imperium and Republic.

During this time Master Yoda had been able to get a private meeting with John to discuss the events that happened.

It was then that Master Yoda had learned that the Jedi sent to investigate had instigated the engagement and even killed a Republic Admiral. John had shown him the Video feed that he had taken during the call.

Master Yoda and Master Luminara had both learned the truths and now knew that it was the Jedi that really started the war. They were also glad to hear that most of the fleets were captured and the crew were taken, prisoner.

John told Yoda that if the Jedi continue to follow the Republic it will lead to their destruction. Master Yoda knew that John was simply stating the truth so he didn't get upset at what he said and only thought in the situation.

After talking a little more John left Yoda and Luminara alone while he returned to his fleet.

At this time Master Yoda was trying to figure out what to do since he knows that Mace and most of the Jedi will not abandon their teachings and will remain loyal to the Republic but if he revealed the Republics corruption he could use that to overthrow the Senate and rebuild the Republic with a new administration that isn't corrupt.

The only people who would support such a decision were Master Luminara, a few Jedi council members, and a few Jedi knights while the other Jedi would remain Loyal to the Republic.

Master Yoda strongly believed in the Jedi code of protecting the Republic and maintaining Galactic peace so he didn't know what to do even if the Republic was corrupted the Jedi had a duty to defend it.

Master Yoda continued fighting for the Republic while also experiencing visions of Jedi dying to a powerful Sith dressed in all black.

But other than the visions the force didn't give him any other clues or information to determine what this would mean for the Jedi.

On Raxus Secundus the last planet and also capital of the Confederacy Imperium soldiers could be seen landing all over the planet and capturing cities while the Senators were arrested.

With the fall of Raxus Secundus, the Confederate war officially ended and all B-1 battle droids or any other droids were sent to be remodeled to the Imperium droids. John had the Droidekas saved and improved by the science division because he always liked how they just roll up on somebody and deploy their shields.

Also, the Droidekas could help put variety in his droid army since most of the droids were just regular droids with the same appearance and only those that have positions like Droid Commander or Droid Admiral have different colors.

The total amount of droids captured from the Confederacy during the war was 5 trillion. And the amount of wealth taken was a lot since the Confederacy was made up of many rich factions.

Now that the Confederacy was defeated John would wait 1 month to let his soldiers rest and relax and celebrate the victory over the Confederacy. But after that 1 month passed he would advance on the Republic get one step closer to uniting the Galaxy.

When John announced the 1-month break from war the soldiers were happy and began praising the Emperor since they could relax and have fun instead of going back into war. And some soldiers can return so see their families.

John returned to Naboo and would spend the month with Padme, Layla, Kina, and Atra until the war starts again.

Admiral Anderson and Admiral Hacket would be responsible for defending the border territories for a month so the soldiers can recuperate.
