Outcasts Chapter 2: Divided (summary)

#### **Zone's Escape**

With the battle against Surect over, Zone surrendered his troopers and himself. Kappa interrogated him and tried to turn him to the light. The two argued and Kappa explained how the dark siders are controlled by the force and light siders aren't. Kappa couldn't get Zone to understand and so ordered a droid to "execute" him. The droid played a trick and healed Zone instead and then fought Zone. Kappa went back in, Zone was frustrated of the Jedi tricks. Kappa wanted Zone to demonstrate his powers. Val Tor came in and Zone pulled Val's saber, fighting Kappa. Then Kappa and Val worked together and using the force, they cut off Zone's connection to the force. Zone was horrified and angry and left the temple without his force powers...

*It's been 3 years since the defeat of the Remnant and death of Surect. The heroes are trying to move on but things aren't easy. Many Jedi have went back to rebuild their once great order but they may face a greater challenge than before...*

#### **A Dificult Choice**

While the Jedi were minding their business on a new temple built on Yavin IV, the Republic informed them that they wanted those "heroes" who caused the loss of the Remnant and destruction of the Eliminator. Ralter, Juno, Kappa, Dave, Curt and Kreddrel all went to Republic and were met by Commander Attakins. Commander Attakins told them all about how the public sees them as dangerous and need to be controlled and showed footage of Jedi killing unarmed and innocent personel and destroying facilities. Juno and Ralter were raged by this after all of the sacrifices they went through to beat the Remnant. Commander Attakins presented them with a choice. To agree with the protocol and have the Jedi Order be supervised or rebel and be arrested. Kappa, Dave and Ralter agreed, seeing no choice but Juno was raged and disagreed, running away as order was given to arrest her. Curt was tasked with catching all the rebelling Jedi that didn't agree to the protocol. Will Juno get her Jedi pals to disagree with the protocol or will more Jedi agree to it?...

#### **Juno's Escape**

In Coruscant, Juno was escaping from Republic Troopers and then used one of their armors as disguise to hide. She was found and alerted by a Bounty Hunter robot called IG-116 so she had to run away. Curt confronted her to give him a chance but Juno knew she had to escape and shot Curt, Curt was hurt and left. After evading IG-116, she ran into Ralter. Ralter helped her by giving his X-Wing for her to escape him. Curt arrived in time to capture her but she had already left, so he knocked out and cuffed Ralter for betraying them, leaving him to Republic Troopers to imprison him. Curt wanted to find Juno, and Kappa needed to go back to the temple. Curt left Kappa at Yavin IV then went to find Juno...

#### **Jedi and Republic Relations**

Kappa went back to the temple on Yavin IV and warned Threll and Val Tor of the protocol to bind the Jedi to the Republic. Soon, Republic Troopers came and explained the situation in a lighter way and set the terminal up to sign-up on to the database. Threll and some students came and signed up but Val Tor and many other students were nowhere to be seen...

#### **Finding Zone**

Curt searched around and found Zone in a bar on Nar Shadaa. He decided to act talkative with the target and talked to him about the protocol and told him everything. Zone wasn't convinced but knowing Curt's reputation, he took his chances in hopes of getting paid and came with Curt to Coruscant...

#### **Imprisonement**

Ralter was sedated in a cell on a Republic cruiser. An advanced stealth ship came and shot the ship, damaging the systems. A female twi'lek snuck in and killed everyone with 2 sabers. She then helped Ralter get out of his cell. She explained what was going on and greeted him. She was Vudana Mraay. A guard found them and was about to shoot them, but TP-616 stopped him and took his weapon. He then was locked in a cell. TP-616 ran away fast like a Jedi. Vudana found TP-616 and told him to come to the bridge. TP-616 refused but Vudana beat him up and knocked him out and took him to the bridge. TP-616 woke up, scared upon the sight of Ralter. He refused to put in the coordinates but was forced to by Ralter. He put in the coordinates and then escaped by a small shuttle on the back. Ralter and Vudana then went to and landed on the Jedi Temple in Yavin IV, only to find out about it being occupied and supervised by Republic Agents. Vudana left on a shuttle while Ralter. He constructed a new lightsaber and then had a dark dream about Vann killing his friends. He then quickly fled to Ossus...

#### **Jedi Hideout**

Juno had took the ship and left to Ossus. Ralter also appeared to be there at the same time. Val Tor greeted them there and showed them their new hideout near. The 3 shared events and told each other what happened. Ralter and Juno decided to rest. Meanwhile Curt and Kred were looking for any Jedi while on Ord Mantell and was caught by Haltar, who was scarred by the sith. Haltar was defeated by Curt and quickly fled. Curt and Kred, finding no Jedi, decided to return to Coruscant...

#### **The Testimony**

Kappa, Curt, Zone and the Senators arrived at Corruscant for the testimony. Right before the testimony begined, TP-616 arrived and sneaked inside but was caught by Curt. Curt took a datapad from him and told him to wait for the testimony to end. At the testimony, Co-Chancellor Triss arrived and told Zone to begin his testimony. Zone told everyone about how he and his troopers were tortured, the public was shocked. Kappa begined his defense but Curt played the footage on the datapad, showing a Tie Pilot being beaten down. The public was shocked and Chancellor Triss ended the testimony with the Jedi protocol justified. Just then, smoke came up from the floor and in the blink of an eye, a twi'lek arrived, killing the primary chancellor. It was Vudana Mrayy. She ran as far as she could but was stopped by Kappa, who she attacked. Curt arrived and stun shot her from behind, knocking her out. She was taken to cells and Kappa was taken in for questioning... With no place to go and no ship, Zone and TP-616 decided to come with Curt and Kredrell. Their next target was Ralter Yalara...

#### **A Day Long Remembered**

Curt and his crew pin pointed the location of Rogue Jedi base and infiltrated inside. Curt used his stealth funcionality to sneak inside but was found and confronted by Juno. Juno made Curt mad and Curt defeated her. Right as he was about to capture her, Ralter arrived and stopped him, saving her with a flashbang. Curt chased after them, only to be stopped by a Jedi female, whom Zone and Kreddrell were facing. Zone convinced Kred to give him the crimson lightsaber and Zone dueled the Jedi. Zone lost and the Jedi escaped, but was stopped and captured by Curt. Soon Curt contacted the Republic and their Troopers arrived, arresting every single Jedi inside. Juno was mad at Ralter for selfishly rescuing her and himself and not helping other Jedi and told him to go run while she surrendered. Curt's ship arrived with TP-616 piloting it. Curt took Juno to his ship to bring her to Coruscant. The Rogue Jedi had seemingly lost with no hope... It was obvious. This would be a day long remembered...

#### **The Secret Empire**

After the Jedi were transported to cells, Curt found a dark jedi by the name of Kora Baltor inspecting around. He revealed himself to have hijacked the Republic to get Jedi to be found guilty. Curt and Kora fought but Curt couldn't beat him, so Kreddrell freed the Jedi and all of them assaulted Kora together. Then, Bruzz Vann and Cora Kenta arrived through the elavator. Cora had survived and joined the dark side. While Kora and Cora fought the Jedi, Vann defeated and tortured Curt. Juno, Ralter, Curt, Kred, Walian (Zone), Dave and Liam barely made it out alive. On Curt's ship, Kappa contacted them and told them about what happened and to get ready for a new war.
