The setting would be after Revenge of the Sith but before New Hope. When the characters we know wouldn't be in their prime yet. So Luke and Leia and Han and Chewy wouldn't make appearance and the only characters would be probably the Emperor and Darth Vader who would appear a few times per season.
The Gray Jedi would eventually get involved with the beginnings of the rebellion and this is where it would begin. A Gray Jedi named Kelru feeling a sense of duty to help any remaining Jedi within the Empire being captured and his fellow misfits come to rescue him and some of the Senators who have been detained.
It is in screenplay format cause I wanted it to be a television series.
FADE IN.
EXT. SPACE
Empty blackness of space and stars.
SUBTITLES ROLLING:
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far, away . . .
The Jedi have been exterminated. The Galaxy has fallen into the hands of Sith Lord Sidious
under the guise of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Plans for restructuring the Galactic Republic have
begun. Regional Governors are
suppressing the rights of citizens and the Clone Army of the Galactic Empire is
squashing any visible resistance to the Chancellor’s rule.
As the Empire takes its first breaths of life the Rebellion is
being nursed in secret by the few remaining opposition Senators. But the going is hard as Lord Vader,
the Chancellors’ new weapon, is secretly hunting down anyone who pose a threat
to the new Galactic Empire.
EXT. CORUSCANT SYSTEM
A small fighter exits hyperspace. The ship ditches its Hyperspace ring as its engines ignite
and the City Planet of Coruscant gleams in the distance.
INT. FIGHTER
KELRU TUNI, 37, flicks switches as he scans the displays of his
ships status. Kelru’s Mech Droid beeps a message onto the small computer
screen.
KELRU
Okay,
R6-E3, relay the message.
The mech droid beeps an affirmative. ONLEE INT, a dark skinned shallow faced man, flashes onto
the screen.
ONLEE
Don’t do this, Kelru.
The transmission ended along time ago. The temple’s probably been destroyed.
KELRU
We should
have come when the message was altered.
ONLEE
And did
what? Been destroyed with the rest
of the Jedi?
KELRU
We could
have helped our brethren.
ONLEE
They were
not our brothers.
KELRU
They were
Jedi, Onlee!!
ONLEE
And we
haven’t been Jedi for a very long time!!
EXT. KELRU’S SHIP
Two vessels flank Kelru’s Ship. They are new Imperial Fighters manned by Clone Pilots.
INT. KELRU’S SHIP
Onlee’s image is abruptly interrupted by the Imperial Pilot’s
image.
EMPIRICAL
PILOT
Unidentified
Vessel, you are to be escorted to a holding facility to be questioned.
KELRU
Hold on to
that thought for one second.
Kelru flicks a series of switches and Onlee returns.
KELRU
If it is a
trap and I’m captured will you come rescue me?
ONLEE
It is a
trap and you’re on your own when you’re captured.
Kelru’s ship shakes violently as two laser blasts skim his hull.
ONLEE
What was
that?
KELRU
Don’t
worry; I’ll be waiting for you to come get me.
INT. ONLEE’S COMMUNICATION ROOM
Kelru’s image on a screen flashes to static.
ONLEE
Kelru, you
fool.
A young Twi’lek girl, PWAN’TAE, leans against the doorframe to
the small communication room.
PWAN’TA
You want
me to prep the ship?
Onlee turns the screen off.
ONLEE
(faking indifference)
No need
to, We are not going after him. He
knew it was a trap and . . .
PWAN’TA
(scoffs)
Alright,
I’ll prep the ship.
Onlee looks down at the communication panels and sighs
deeply.
ONLEE
So this is
how it all begins.
A figure moves into the doorway ERIANA, 25, a beautiful human
girl replaces Pwan’tae.
ERIANA
He’s going
to be killed isn’t he?
Onlee quickly composes himself and turns to Eriana.
Tears are at the edges of Eriana’s blue eyes.
ONLEE
(chuckles)
No water
works please. He knew what he was
getting into going to help the Jedi.
Eriana smiles and she wipes away the tears.
ERIANA
(no longer upset.)
Good. Now let’s go.
ONLEE
(turning back to
communication screen)
Hold on, I
have to contact someone first.
ERIANA
Okay, but
hurry.
Onlee turns back to the screen. He types and WREN RETO, Senator Mon Mothma’s Assistant,
appears.
