Star Wars: The Holy Empire - Chapter 84
“Would you like me to open up the communication?” asked OOM-341
“Do it” I said
OOM-341 pressed a buŧŧon and a hologram of Pre Vizsla appears
“Mandalore, We have completed the mission. The 5 Neiomoidians are now captured and tied up.” said Pre Vizsla “We now await for your arrival.”
“Good job, Pre Vizsla” I said “I am very happy that you were able to complete your mission so quickly.”
“Of course, this kind of mission is a piece of cake for us Mandalorians but it was kind of boring.” said Pre Vizsla “Please give us a harder mission next time, so we can have a challenge.”
“I will keep that in mind.” I said “I will leave now and I will be there soon.”.
OOM-341 then turn off the holocommunicator.
I stood up from the Command Chair
“Get a transport ready for me.” I commanded
“I will get that…” said OOM-341
But before OOM-341 could finished what he was saying, B1-AC-130 quickly stood in front of me, blocking my view of OOM-341 and OOM-341 view of me.
“I have already gotten a shuttle ready and waiting for you, my Emperor.” said B1-AC-130
“Good job on anticipating that, AC-130” I said
“Thank you, my Emperor.” said B1-AC-130 “I try my best to be as useful to you as possible.”
“O…ok” I said “Well, let’s go check out my new ship and make some puppets.”
“Roger, roger.” said B1-AC-130 who followed after me.
We soon arrived at the hangar and waiting for me was a Sheathipede-class transport shuttle that was a shuttle mainly used by the Neimoidians.
I entered the shuttle and soon we were taking off and heading towards my new Lucrehulk Cargo Freighter. We soon landed in the hangar of the Cargo Freighter.
Once the loading ramp was lowered, I can see 16 Mandalorians waiting for me, standing in two lines, each line on each side of the loading ramp, making a pathway for me to walk.
“All Hail Mandalore” they yelled as soon as they saw me
I walked down the pathway, and stopped at the last two Mandalorians in the pathway.
“Any casualties?” I asked
“No casualties, Mandalore. We didn’t receive even a scratch or broke a sweat” said one of the Mandalorians “It was an easy battle, not much of a challenge. It wasn’t enough to be called a warm up”
“Alright, let’s go to the bridge.” I said
“Mandalore” saluted Pre Vizsla and the other four Mandalorians
“As soon as the Neimoidians saw me, they started whispering among themselves.
“No talking!” yelled Pre Vizsla
Commander Luku Dund then faced and stared at me.
“What are your demands, you barbarian savage.” said Commander Luku Dund “Is it money you want? We can give you 10 million Galactic Credits. If you want, we can even get you slaves as well. What’s your preference; Women, men, girls or even boys. We can get you anything as long as you let us go, then we can put everything behind us”
“Shut your trap!” said an angry Pre Vizsla who then slaps Luku Dund
“I find what you said to very distasteful, especially the last bit about slaves.” I said “I am starting to want to kill you but that will disrupt my plans, so I will simply tell you what I want. What I want isn’t money but your souls.”
“Our souls?!” cried out the 4 Neimoidians behind Luku Dund who became frighten
“Not really.” I laughed “But you should take a look at your faces, its hilarious.”
“If you don’t want money, or slaves, what do you want?” said Luku Dund “If you let us go and tell us what you and we will get you anything you want.”
“I only want two things.” I said “One, I want the ten Forges being transported by this ship.”
“Take them, they are yours.” said Luku Dund “What’s your second demand?”
“Two, I want 5 new Financial slaves.” I said “I will also be taking all of your money and using it to help me finance my Empire and my conquest of the galaxy.”
“WHAT! NEVER!” cried the 5 Neimoidians “You will never have all of our money. We worked too hard to just give it all to a savage barbarian.”
“Who said you ever had a choice in this matter.” I laughed “Don’t worry, you will soon be more then willing to serve me and hand over all of your money to me. Everyone leave except for Pre Vizsla!”
“Yes, Mandalore!’ replied the 20 Mandalorians who then left the bridge and shut the blast doors behind them.
“Why did you want me to stay?” asked Pre Vizsla
“I am going to show you, one of my many powers.” I said
“Why would you do that?” asked Pre Vizsla
“So you can trust me.” I said “And so you can see what will happen to those you betray me.”
I then places my hand on top of one of the Neimoidian’s heads.
“WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO TO ME!” cried the Neimoidian
The Neimoidian tried to get away his head away from my hand but it was useless since I was clutching his head pretty firmly.
“PLEASE LET ME GO” cried the Neimoidian “I WILL GIVE YOU WHATEVER YOU WANT!”
I started using [Mind Control] on the Neimoidian and thanks to the [Ring of Control] I am wearing, I am able to mind control being’s with slightly strong wills.
“NOOOOOooooo….” cried the Neimoidian who felt something stirring inside his mind.
But soon his screams died down, and until he stopped screaming, and was silent.
I took out my lightsaber and skillfully cut the ropes that were tying him up.
The Neimoidians stood up.
“Mandalore, why did you cut him free?” asked a puzzled Pre Vizsla who puts his hand on his holstered WESTAR-35, just in case the Neiomoidians was desperate enough to charge the Mandalore.
Just like Pre Vizlsa, the Neimoidians were also confused by my actions of freeing one of their compatriots.
The Neimoidian then got on his knees and bowed down to me
“My Holy Emperor, this lowly slave is ready to serve you with all of my might.” said the Neimoidian.
“What the hell are you saying!!” cried out Luku Dund “Get up! Get up now!”
But the Neimoidian paid no mind to Luku Dund’s commands and stayed in a bowing position.
“What did you do to him?” said Pre Vizsla who was a little startled by the Neimoidians change.
“I merely took control of his mind so that he will become a loyal sla…servant to my future Empire.” I said
“I have heard stories past down by my ancestors on how the Jedi and Sith can manipulate people’s minds but that is only possible to do that with people with a weak will and mind.” said Pre Vizsla “And I know for a fact that a Neimoidian’s will and mind are not weak.”
“That is because I use the full force of the Force.” I said “Unlike the Jedi and the Sith, who each only use one side of the Force, I used the Force in its entirety, not just one part of it.”
“I still don’t really understand all of this Force talk, but I understand from the stories I have been told as a kid that the Jedi say that they represent the Light Side of the Force, while the Sith is suppose to represent the Dark Side of the Force.”
“Correct, they both use half of the Force but I use all of the Force. They restrict themselves by doing this which makes them weak.” I said “They both believe that their is a Light and Dark Side to the Force when that is untrue, in fact the Force is neutral and it’s the Force user who is either Good or Evil.”
“Okay, okay. I get it, so you can stop lecturing me on the Sides of the Force.” said Pre Vizsla “The only thing I need to understand is that the Force will be very helpful for us in our future battles, especially your [Mind Control] trick especially with traitors. I can now understand why you showed me this power. ”
“Yes, my [Mind Control] powers can be very useful but I don’t really like using my [Mind Control] powers on those who are good and righteous but for those who are bad or evil or anyone who betrays me I don’t mind using it on them.” I said “Like these Neiomoidians, they are bad people. They are willing to bankrupt a planet and capture all of it’s citizen and sell them as slaves, just to line their pockets with more credits. I find that behavior disgusting and dishonorable.”
“I see.” said Pre Vizsla “Sounds like you really hate the idea of slavery. Will you outlaw slavery in your future Holy Empire?”
“Yes, and No.” I said “I hate the idea of people kidnapping people and selling them off as slave, so I want to outlaw that kind of slavery but I will allow Crime Slaves, making low level criminals into slaves.”
“That is a smart idea, since crime does happen a lot in the Galaxy and there is no shortage of criminals in the Galaxy, you can have a huge slave labor force from just using criminals.” said Pre Vizsla
“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TWO TALKING ABOUT!?” shouted Luku Dund
“I almost forgot about you.” said Pre Vizsla
“We need to wrap this up before anyone comes by this area.” I said as I approach Luku Dund.
“No, no, no. Get away from me.” cried Luku Dund “Please don’t turn me into a mindless puppet like him. I promise you I am willing serve you willingly if you just don’t do that to me.”
“Sorry, you have no choices in this matter.” I said as I used [Force Pull] to drag Luku Dund towards me and grabbed on to the top of his head and started using [Mind Control].
“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”cried Luku Dund
Soon, all five Neimoidians became mindless puppets in the palm of my hand.
