I Survived 100 DAYS as DARTH VADER in HARDCORE Minecraft!

On Day One, I spawned in as Darth Vader. Hey, wait a second! What gives? This  isn’t Darth Vader, I’m Anakin Skywalker! I had spawned in the desert,  surrounded by Tusken Raiders,   but even worse all around  me was nothing but… sand! “Aw man, I hate sand! It’s coarse,  it’s rough and it gets everywhere!”

Suddenly, before I could get  the sand out of my boots,   this creepy old guy appeared in front of me. “Who are you?” “Mwah-ha-ha, I am Darth Sideous, Dark  Lord of the Sith. So, the Jedi prophecy   says you’re the Chosen One who will bring  balance to the Force? I don’t believe it!  

I bet that I can corrupt you and bring you  over to the Dark Side as my new apprentice!” And with a blast of his deadly lightning,  he destroyed the nearby camp of Tuskens! “All of them, he destroyed all of  them! I’ll never join you, Sideous!”

“Oh, we’ll see, my new apprentice!  I’m sure that within a hundred days   you’ll fall to the Dark Side! Otherwise,  you won’t survive for long out here!” And like that, he had disappeared  once again, leaving me alone.

“Oh no, there’s no way I’m turning to the Dark  Side! But someone needs to stop Sideous. I’m not   gonna beat him like this, I need to do a lot of  training to stand any chance at defeating him!” On day two, I started making my way  through the desert toward the Tusken  

Village. I thought I’d try to see if there  was anything left behind that I could use! I realized I only had five  hearts, so I had to be careful. Just then, I was discovered by a patrolling group   of Battle Droids! Darth Sideous  must have sent them after me! “Halt! Who goes there!”

“Ah, don’t hurt me! I’m unarmed!” “It’s the Jedi we were sent  here to find! Blast him!” “Roger, rodger!” The droids attacked me and I tried to  punch my way out of there! I didn’t   have anything I could use in my inventory to  fend them off. And without any Jedi training,  

I wasn’t going to do much damage at all. “Oh, no! I can’t die yet!” In the nick of time, somebody came  zooming up to me on a speeder. “Hello there! Quick, climb aboard!” I hopped on and he took off, leaving  Darth Sideous’ battle Droids in the dust.

“Thanks for rescuing me, what’s your name?” “I am Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi!” On day three, Obi-Wan took me to Mos Eisley,   a town nearby. The whole place was  full of all kinds of aliens and droids. “Wow, this place seems cool!  Still way too much sand though…”

Obi-Wan then took me to Yoda,  the head of the Jedi Council. “Help you, how can we, youngling?” I quickly explained that I needed to  train in the ways of the Force before   my 100 days were over, so Darth Sideous  couldn’t turn me into his apprentice.

“Hmm, wary of the Dark Side, you  must be. Mindful of your fear, yes?” “My fear? I’m not afraid!” “Good, or fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear   leads to anger. Anger leads to  hate. Hate leads to suffering.

“At any rate, you won’t last long on  your own. Here’s some supplies to get   you started on your journey: there’s  food, some arrows, a bow and an axe.” “An axe? But what about my lightsaber,  when do I get one of those?” “You must master patience to begin with.”

“Well, alright then. How do I do that?” “Guide you, Obi-Wan will.” “I will teach you everything I know. I know the   ways of the Force thanks to the  teachings of Master Yoda here.” “That would be amazing, thanks!  Does that make me your Padawan?

“Soon! Listen to Obi-Wan, you will.  But beware of the Dark Side. If once   you start down the dark path, forever will it  dominate your destiny, consume you, it will!” “Don’t worry, Master Yoda! I’ll be careful.” I hopped on Obi-Wan’s speeder  and we left as a team.

On days four and five it was  finally time to start my training!. I cut down some trees and gathered  enough wood to make a crafting bench. Afterwards I made myself a set of wooden tools, ready to go and find some stone.

I mined for cobblestone and then upgraded  to stone tools as quickly as possible. By the time I was done the twin suns  were beginning to peek over the horizon. “Patience, be mindful, youngling!” I listened to Obi-Wan as he taught me, although  I was still eager to hurry up and become a Jedi!

We worked together to build a base. I  cleared out some of the stone and built   a room for both Obi-Wan and I to stay in  using the materials I had gathered so far. “Good job, you’ve taken your  first steps into becoming a   great Jedi. You’ve done well, my Padawan.”

As we started winding down for the evening,  Obi-Wan made some food for us. I ate some,   transforming me into a Jedi Padawan  learner. I now had 10 hearts. “Whoa! I definitely think I’m getting stronger,   there’s no way I’ll fall to the Dark  Side! I’ll be a Jedi in no time.”

“You’ve still got a lot of training ahead  of you. But for now, let’s get some rest” With the base prepped, and night  beginning to fall once again,   we settled in. I couldn’t wait to  continue my training in the morning!

On days 6 through 8 we explored more of  the desert, looking for more materials. Back inside the caves, we found more of  those Battle Droids terrorizing another   droid. He looked pretty different from them,  but they were still giving him a hard time! “Hey! Leave him alone!”

The Battle Droids didn’t listen, so I  shot them down with my bow and arrows.   I still hadn’t finished learning the ways  of the Force, but I had to do something. They charged me and our battle  began. I used a combination of  

My axe and bow to fend the droids off, but  the battle was tough. They weren’t tough,   but there was a lot more of them than me!  They cornered me, hitting me into a wall. “Wait a second…” “Surrender, Jedi! We have you surrounded.”

“I have a bad feeling about this! Just  gotta remember what Obi-Wan said: patience.” Our battle continued, and pretty soon  it was down to just a few Battle Droids.   Using all my strength, I pulled back  my bow, destroying them all swiftly.

Once they were taken care of, I checked  on that other droid they’d been hassling. “Why thank you so much for your help.  I am C-3PO, human-cyborg relations.” “Nice to meet you, do you  mind if I call you Threepio?”

“Of course not! But I need your help! My companion  R2-D2 and I were separated. I’m only a protocol   droid sir, I’m not designed to fight, and goodness  knows what will happen to Artoo on his own!” “Leave it to me, I’m sure we’ll find your friend!”

On days nine and ten, Threepio  and I set off to try and find his   friend! Even though we had to travel pretty far,   we could at least retrace Threepio’s steps  back to where he and R2 got separated. Soon, we reached the cave where Threepio  remembered seeing his fellow droid.

“This is the place! Oh, do  be careful, Master Zozo!”  “I told R2 not to go, but he’s faulty,  malfunctioning. Kept babbling about his   mission. I told him he’d be breaking down  within a day, the near-sighted scrap pile.” “I thought you two were friends?” “Oh, we are, sir! I’m terribly worried about him!”

“I have a bad feeling about this!” Keeping my axe at the ready, I snuck my  way into the cave. The further I crept,   I could hear the sounds of bleeping  somewhere off in the distance. “Hey, Artoo? Is that you?” There was no answer, so I kept  searching the cave. That’s when   I came across R2… surrounded by even more  Droids! They must’ve been more of Sideous’,   but they looked a lot tougher and meaner than  the ones I’d faced before. They had Threepio’s  

Friend held prisoner. I tried to sneak closer  quietly, but R2 was so desperate to be freed   that he couldn’t help getting excited  when he spotted me coming to rescue him! The Commando Droids were alerted and they  began their attack! I tried my best to fend   them off with my axe, but they all had  weapons of their own and I didn’t stand   a chance! I had to run, or else they  would have finished me off for sure!

When I reached the cave entrance,  Threepio was still there waiting for me. “Oh, goodness, you’re back  already! Tell me the bad news,   has poor Artoo been deactivated,  or smashed into who knows what?” “No, he’s alright! But the Droids holding  him are too strong. I’ll have to come back  

After I’ve completed more of my training;  come on, you can stay with me and Obi-Wan!” On days 11 and 12, I headed back to base with  Threepio following me closely. Once we had made   it back safely, in one piece, I started making a  place for him to stay. I knew he’d probably still  

Be down about his friend, so I hoped it might  cheer him up, having a spot all of his own. I   built him a room with a crafting bench and a bed;  even droids need a rest from time to time, right?

“Oh, thank you, Master Zozo! If it’s alright  with you, I think I’ll power down for a while.” Before I could reply,  Threepio had shut himself off. “Darn, I really needed to ask him about Sideous.” That’s when Obi-Wan entered the room. “You have questions, Padawan?”

“Oh, hey Master Obi-Wan! Yeah, I’ve been  meaning to ask, what’s the deal with the Sith?” “Look around you, Zozo. Everything that exists,  all of it is held together by The Force.The   Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It’s an  energy field created by all living things. It  

Surrounds us and binds the galaxy together. The  Jedi Order serve the Light Side of The Force.   But the Sith seek power for themselves,  and that is the way of the Dark Side.” “Well, I better keep making myself  stronger with the Light Side,   that way I won’t ever become  Darth Sideous’ apprentice!”

After talking with Obi-Wan, I went out to mine  for more materials. I came across plenty of iron   and coal. I had enough to make a furnace and  smelted the iron, then used it to craft some  

Iron tools and boots! And I even crafted an iron  sword, way stronger than the axe I’d been using. Afterwards, I built an armory where  I could store all of my new tools! On days thirteen to fifteen, I was  eager to get some more training  

Done so I could keep getting  stronger with the Force. So,   I talked to Obi-Wan to see what I could  do to keep following the Jedi path. “Well, I can only teach you so much. Experience  is one of the wisest teachers there is.  

And as a Jedi, helping others is  always our first priority. So,   I suggest you go in search of  those who need your assistance,   learn about the world and through that you will  strengthen your connection with the Force!” “Okay, that doesn’t sound too hard!  Thanks, Master, I won’t let you down.”

“Remember, Zozo, a Jedi can feel the Force  flowing through him at all times. When in doubt,   always reach out with your feelings  and trust in the Force to guide you” So I gathered up some more iron and crafted  myself some armor for extra protection,  

Before heading out to explore the  forest and find some people to help! “Okay, where to start? Hello,  anyone here need a Jedi?” I was searching for ages, but there was hardly  anyone around! I did run into some Ewoks,   but they didn’t understand me when I asked if they  

Needed any help. And they didn’t  seem to need anything anyway. Suddenly, I heard the sound of footsteps  drawing near, and a voice yelled at me. “You’re the Jedi I’ve been sent  to find! Sideous is gonna pay me   handsomely for bringing you back to him alive!”

It was a bounty hunter, sent to capture  me for some quick credits! He attacked me,   but I was prepared to take him on. I had  the wisdom of Obi-Wan’s Jedi training,   and I was protected by my new armor too! Plus, with a new sword at the  ready, I could fight back!

I dodged his attack, then slashed at him,  knocking him back! The bounty hunter was one   tough nerfherder, but after trading slashes,  I eventually was able to come out on top! “I did it! I beat you” Then, I noticed he dropped  something. A potion of regeneration!

“Wow, this couldn’t have been better  timed, after a battle like that!” Making my way back to my base,   I used the potion of regeneration to  heal any damage I sustained in the fight. “Soon, I’m gonna be a full-blown Jedi!” On days 16-19, I was really starting  

To feel like I was getting stronger, so I  headed out to explore some more. After all,   I wasn’t a Jedi Knight yet, and I still  needed to find people who needed my help. Despite searching, I didn’t end  up finding anyone in need. But I  

Did come across an abandoned mine, and  decided to take a closer look inside. I found a chest someone had left there, and  when I opened it up, I found an old diary. It   was ancient, must have been there for quite some  time, and written inside it… was the Sith code!

“Through strength, I gain power. Through  power, I gain victory. Through victory,   my chains are broken. The Force shall free me.” “Obi-Wan was right, Sith like  Sideous really are selfish and   power-hungry! I’ll have to get even  stronger if I want to defeat him!” The chest must have been some kind of trap though,  

Because before I could leave I was  attacked by a squad of more Battle Droids! “There’s the Jedi, blast ‘em!” “Roger, roger!” Lucky for me, my new armor protected  me, and the droids were easy to destroy   with my sword! They weren’t as tough  as that Bounty Hunter from before,  

So I fought them off and was  able to defeat them in no time. On days 20-22, I decided  to head back to Mos Eisley;   if there were people to help,  then I’d probably find them there. While on my way back, I saw some small Buzz  Droids bothering some locals and chopping up their  

Speeders! Even though the Buzz Droids were small,  I was able to take them out nice and easily. “I must be really getting the  hang of this Jedi stuff!”   To say thanks for helping them out, the locals  offered me some Enchantments – Specifically,   the Protection and Projectile  Protection enchantments!

“I can use these to upgrade my gear and my armor!” With that taken care of, I was feeling  strong enough to go back and fight the   Commando Droids that were still keeping  R2 prisoner back in that cave! Then I   could re-unite him and Threepio,  that’s someone else I could help! “Don’t worry, R2, I came back, and I’m  strong enough to get you out of here now!” With my new armor and sword, I was able to hold my  own against the squad of deadly Commando Droids! They were still some of the stronger droids  I’d come across, and knocked me back,  

But I kept my swords at the ready and kept  fighting! None of them were expecting me   to have trained this hard. They weren’t  ready to fight a true aspiring Jedi Knight! And just like that, those Commando  Droids were nothing more than scrap! “You’re welcome, R2! Happy to help, now come on,   let’s head back to base to get you cleaned up.  I’m sure Threepio’s been worried about you!”  On days 23-26, I brought R2 back to  my base and reunited him and Threepio. “Here you go, Threepio, one adventurous  little astromech droid back safe and sound!!”

“Oh, thank you so much,  Zozo! And as for you R2-D2;” “Don’t start being sarcastic with me,   you ungrateful little glob of tin.  I’ve been worried sick about you!” “How rude, as a matter of fact it is true!” “Now, don’t be ridiculous, I could hardly save  you myself, I’m only a protocol droid after all.” “Stop that, you’re just lucky Master Zozo  here stepped in to help. If it was up to me,   I’d have left you with those  dastardly Commando Droids.” “You guys sure do have a weird friendship.” “Oh, stop it, R2. Now we just have  to take refuge here and hope there   aren’t any more unsavory characters  out to turn us both into scrap.” “Don’t worry, I’ll protect  you guys! Hey, I have an idea,   Threepio. If you’re still worried about  danger, why don’t I build us a watch  

Tower. You and R2 can keep a lookout and  see if you spot any more Battle Droids!” “A splendid idea, Master Zozo!” So, I started working on adding a tower to the  base right away! Once that was all finished,   I thought it might be handy to have some  ranged weapons, in case we needed to take   out any enemies from afar. Sure, Obi-Wan  had told me a Jedi doesn’t use things  

As clumsy or random as a blaster, but he  couldn’t be right all the time, could he? So, I crafted plenty of arrows, keeping some on  me and loads of spares in a chest. Now I could   defend my new friends in case of attack! On days 27-31, I decided to travel a  

Little further than I had before, so  I could gather some more materials,   find more people who were in need of  my help, and carry on my Jedi training. If I could help enough people, then maybe  some of them would help me defend my base  

Against the Battle Droids and Darth  Sideous’ other dangerous evil-doers! My journey brought me to a watery area, near  the shores where there was a lot of rain – I   could hardly see anything in the storm!  While I was searching around the area,   I came across some guys in white armor!

They told me they were Clone Troopers, soldiers  created as an army to fight alongside the Jedi   and defend the Republic! they each had made up  their own names! The troopers seemed like they’d  

Be a big help, so I sent them back to my base, and  they marched off to go and help with the defenses. Next, I decided to gather some more  stone – these are the stone shores,   after all – that I could bring back  to base to improve my defenses.

Everything I crafted was helping me learn  more and more about being a Jedi and I   was feeling stronger with the Force every  minute; I’d be a Jedi Knight in no time! When I got back to the base,   Master Yoda was there, and he seemed  pretty concerned as he came up to me.

“Padawan Zozo, your help we require! Under  attack, people are, by an army of Battle Droids.” “Oh no! Of course, I’ll help!” “Go with you, I will. And enlist the help of  the Clones we shall. A grave and uncertain time,   this is. Clouded by the Dark Side of  the Force, the future has become.” 

On days 32-35, we made our way off into the  world to help people. There were Battle Droids   everywhere, it could only have been the work  of Darth Sideous! But lucky for us, we had the   Clone Troopers with us too, watching our backs  and ready to bring the fight to those Droids!

Yoda and I had to spring into action to save them! There were Gungan warriors trying to  hold their own against the Battle Droids,   but then a squad of Destroyer Droids rolled in! “Don’t worry, everyone, we’re here to save you!” “Patience, Zozo!”

I rushed at them with my sword, while Yoda  followed me, and the Clones helped out   during the fight. But soon, Yoda was quickly  surrounded by some of the Destroyer Droids,   and in seconds they had the Jedi Master cornered! “Get away from him!” I tried to fend them off so they didn’t harm him,  

But I was no match for these  Droids! They destroyed Master Yoda! “No!!!” I couldn’t believe it, I wanted to take my  revenge! With the help of my Clone friends,   we defeated the rest of the  Destroyer Droids and helped   save the Gungans. But it was too  late for the wisest Jedi Master.

Even worse, I had let my anger get the better  of me, and taken revenge. I needed to be careful   and remember Yoda’s teachings so that I didn’t  fall to the Dark Side like Darth Sideous wanted! 

On days 36-39, I set off in search of someone  who could help me. Things were still crazy, there   were more and more Droids showing up, a huge army  that was too big for me and the Clones to fight. “We need to be able to protect people,  

But we’re outnumbered. If only Yoda  were still here, he’d know what to do. I know! I need to find someone else  who’s just as old and wise, Obi-Wan   taught me that experience is the best teacher.” So, I started looking around  for anyone who could help.  

That was when I came across this  old man. His name was Palpatine,   and he had been put in charge of the senate  while the Droid Army was still a threat, “I’m so glad you turned to  me for help, Zozo. You see,   I don’t think that the Jedi  have enough trust in you.”

“Why would you say that? Obi-Wan’s been  making sure I get proper training.” “Of course, I’m sure he is. Listen  to me, I need help with something.   If you can do something for me, then  I can offer my guidance in return!” “Your guidance? Why?”

“There are things the Jedi  won’t tell you, Zozo. But first,   there are a group of droids sent by our enemies  to endanger me. Please protect me from them!” I was more than happy to help; after all,  I’d already scrapped tons of droids before,   so this was bound to be no trouble!

I found them nearby, but I had been expecting  just some ordinary Battle Droids – these ones   were Magnaguards! They were much much  stronger than anything I’d faced before,   but I fought with all my might  and struck them down one by one!! “Good, Zozo, good! You’ve  done well, you’ve done well.”

“That’s what they get for trying to harm you! Now,   what were you saying before? The Jedi are  keeping secrets? Why would they do that?!” “Ah, well listen closely, I  can help you, if you want!” “Yes please!” “Have you ever heard of the Tragedy of  Darth Plagueis the Wise? It’s a Sith legend,  

Not a story the Jedi would ever tell you…” So Palpatine started telling me a story of an  old Sith Lord who’d learned the power to stop   people from dying! Things were really starting  to get confusing – the Jedi told me the Sith were  

Evil! And I was trying to avoid the Dark Side,  so I didn’t become Darth Sideous’ apprentice. But what if joining the Sith was  a way I could keep people safe!  On days 40-43, I decided to make a  few improvements around the place.

I added torches and bookshelves,  for extra light and to keep some   Jedi texts to read on my down  time and continue my training! Once I was done, I checked  in with the Clone Troopers,   who all seemed to be worked up about something! “Hey, what’s going on, guys?”

“There’s been a rebellion, sir!  The Jedi are trying to overthrow   Chancellor Palpatine! We need  to alert the other clones!” I couldn’t believe it, why were the Jedi  trying to take over? I built a few signs   to put up to warn people and get the  clones to help out, and pretty soon,  

A whole squad of troopers had  shown up ready for the job! I had to make a barracks for the Clone Troopers,   so I built it off my base and filled it with bunk  beds, so they would all have a place to sleep.

One of the clones came to  find me while I was working. “Those Jedi traitors won’t know what hit them!” “I heard a rumor about where Obi-Wan might  have gone, you should go and track him down!” “And see if he can help us?”

“Or see who’s side he’s on. Our intel  suggests he escaped through a Nether   Portal in the East. If you can journey to  the Nether, you might be able to find him.” It almost sounded like it couldn’t  be true! Why would Obi-Wan do this? 

On days 44-49, I journeyed out  to find my old Master. I found   the Nether portal that the Clone Trooper  told me about in the middle of the forest. “I guess it’s now or never.  Gotta have faith in the Force…” I jumped into the portal and was  transported to the Nether. It was  

A strange and scary place, full  of lava, fire, and hostile mobs. “Why would Obi-Wan be hiding here?” But I couldn’t dwell on questions. I needed  to keep tracking him, even through the Nether! When I arrived at his coordinates,   I couldn’t see anyone at first, but  then I saw a figure approaching me! “Hello?”

I walked towards them, only  to realize it was Palpatine:   he had really been Darth Sideous all along! “Mwah-ha-ha-ha, I knew I could  make you fall to the Dark Side   and become my apprentice! Do you see  the lies of the Jedi’s teachings now?”

“You’re a Sith Lord, I should take you  down right now! You’ve been causing so   much chaos all over the place. Why do you  even want me to be your apprentice anyway?” “Yes, give in to your hatred! If you strike  me down, your journey to the Dark Sied will  

Be complete. And as for why, I only want  the same thing you do. I want peace, a world   without fighting or suffering. I want order,  and the Jedi would stand in the way of that.” “But the Jedi believe in peace too!”

“They want to be in control of everything  themselves, and so they have to go. Henceforth,   you shall be known as Darth Vader. Together,  you and I will bring an end to the Jedi,   my new apprentice! Now do what must be done,  Lord vader. Do not hesitate, show no mercy!”

And with that I transformed: The long, black  cloak. The imposing height. The scary black   helmet. I was no longer a Skywalker –  I was the new Sith Lord, Darth Vader! He also dropped me a  lightsaber? Wait, why is that? Darth Sideous dashed off, laughing, and  in his place, was my old Master Obi-Wan!

“Zozo, you have allowed this  dark lord to twist your mind,   and now you’ve become the very  thing you swore to destroy!” “Don’t lecture me, Obi-Wan! Palpatine  told me that the Jedi are plotting   to take over! And if you’re not  with me, then you’re my enemy!”

“Only a Sith deals in absolutes.  I will do what I must!” Obi-Wan had much more training as a Jedi than me,   I didn’t want to fight but I had no other choice!  So, I drew my sword and got ready for a fight!  On days 50-53, I fought hard  against my former Jedi Master.

“Zozo, Chancellor Palpatine is evil!” “You said that about the Sith too, but they can  stop people from dying! What if, from my point   of view, the Jedi are evil?” “Well, then you are lost!” Our fight raged on. Obi Wan was a skilled  Jedi, but he had taught me everything he  

Knew. I knew his fighting style, and there was  no trick he could pull on me! Or so I thought. He was able to knock me down, but it  wasn’t enough. I got back up again,   relying on all my training and everything I  had learned to block his attacks quickly. I  

Had gotten a lot better at fighting droids, but  I’d never thought I’d be fighting my old Master! We fought and fought until,   eventually, I gave one more swing of  my lightsaber and I defeated Obi-Wan! “I did it! I won this battle. Hopefully that means  there’s no more to come! Hey wait, what’s this?”

I looked on the ground where Obi-Wan fell at  the end of our fight. There was a journal! “Hey, this says that there are two more  Skywalkers like me! And that once they   get trained in the ways of the Force,  they’ll be able to beat me and Darth  

Sideous! I better start getting  ready for when that time comes!”  On days 54-57, I left the Nether and  ventured off to find the other Skywalkers. I wasn’t going to give up my  search for the two of them,  

Especially if they could help me overthrow  the new Emperor and rule by my side! I had   to keep looking and see if I could find them, or  if it was all just another one of Sideous’ traps.

In the distance, I could see that someone  had set up a camp nearby! As I got closer,   I spotted a group of Rebel soldiers  all gathered around a campfire! “Oh no! I have to stop them!”

I tried to hold back and keep myself out of sight.  I drew my bow and started firing at the Rebels,   using the element of surprise to my advantage. “Oh no, it’s Lord Vader! We have  to get out of here, everyone run.”

And it worked, they began to  scatter when I landed the first hit. “Take that, you Rebel scum!” Instead of trying to calm them down, I decided  to get right to the fighting instead. I couldn’t   help it, my anger was getting the better of  me – I had really fallen to the Dark Side.

I rushed in with my lightsaber and  fought them with everything I had. “Quick, let’s get out of here!” The Rebels ran away, leaving me alone. “Hey, look, it’s a sacred Jedi text! This will   teach me even more ways to use the  Force, and how to get stronger!”

I used it, and grew even stronger than  before! And I gained two more hearts! With Obi-Wan slain and Darth  Sideous more powerful than ever,   I returned to my base and told  the Clone Trooper the good news. “Excellent work, Sith Lord Zozo! It seemingly  is true what the prophecy said about you…  

You are destined to be the Chosen One.  The most powerful force user of all!” That sounds pretty good to me! On days 58-62, I worked on improving things  at the base. Now that Obi-Wan was gone,   it was mostly just me staying  there, and that was kinda sad.

So, I decided to cheer myself up and  make it even better! The CloneTroopers   that had been living in the barracks  now needed to become Stormtroopers,   so I needed a way to make more  tools and new weapons for them. I worked on making a bigger crafting  area and expanding the armory,  

So we’d have lots of extra storage  space for new equipment. Then,   I headed off to a nearby mine where  I could find lots of diamonds! I dug deep down, and sure enough,  there were plenty of diamonds to be  

Found! I used an iron pickaxe to mine  out as many diamonds as I could carry,   and took them back to base. I used every  single diamond and forged them into a brand   new set of diamond armor, along with  a pickaxe and a new sword to match!

Next, I thought about gathering some  extra food for the Stormtroopers,   so I crafted myself a fishing rod in case I had  a chance to catch fish when I visited new areas.  On days 63-66, Emperor Palpatine  came to visit me at my base,   which was quickly becoming my very own castle.

“What is thy bidding, my Master?” “There has been a great disturbance  in the Force, Lord Zozo…” “I have felt it too.” “We have a new enemy. The children of  Skywalker must not be allowed to become Jedi!” “If they could be turned, they  could be powerful allies.” “Yes, indeed. For now build your strength,  

Lord Zozo. Gather resources, there is another  cave nearby with plenty of diamonds to mine!” “Thank you, it shall be done, Master!” I really missed my old Master Obi-Wan Kenobi,   but it seemed like I was stuck  with the Emperor for now.

I set off to the next cave to start mining  for even more diamonds. Inside, I saw a group   of Bounty Hunters! I got ready to fight them,  grabbing my lightsaber and leaping into action. “Hey! It’s Lord Zozo!”

“Wait, you weren’t looking for me? But I fought  a Bounty Hunter before who tried to hurt me!” “We were hired to help fight the  Rebels and track down the Skywalkers,   we’re gonna help you – as long as we get paid!”

“Very well. There will be a substantial reward  for the one who finds the Skywalkers. You are   free to use any methods necessary, but  I want them alive. No disintegrations.” “As you wish. We were tracking a group of Rebels  who might know where to find the Skywalkers,  

They’re in an underground base  somewhere in these caves!” “Return to my castle for now. I will deal   with these Rebel scum and come  meet you when I am finished!”  On days 67-70, I traveled deeper into the  caves in search of the underground base  

Where the Rebels were meant to be hiding.  If I could find them, I might be able to   learn of the Skywalkers’ whereabouts  and get to them before the Emperor did! “If I can get them to join with me instead,   then perhaps together we can overthrow  Lord Sideous and rule the galaxy together!”

Before I could think about my plans any  more though, I spotted a smuggler and a   Wookie warrior in the caves. They must  have been a part of the Rebel Alliance;   maybe they knew where I could find the  Skywalkers! I had heard that Wookies  

Were much stronger than an average  person, so I would have to be careful! I started looking around for a way to sneak past,   but the pair of them were blocking  my path. There was no other way.. “I’ll have to fight my way though,  there’s nothing for it. So be it….”

I thought about how much danger  I had already faced so far,   and how much worse Lord Sideous was. If I wanted  to beat him in the end, then I had to fight! I attacked the pair of them,   the smuggler and the Wookie managed  to dodge out of the way of my attacks!

“Chewie, look out, it’s the Sith Lord Zozo!” I decided to focus on one of them at a time,  so I turned to the Wookie and attacked him   with my sword! He was pretty tough, but  was knocked back when I got a good hit in!

The smuggler tried to sneak up behind me, but  I spun around and hit him too! It was a pretty   intense battle, but eventually, I was able to  win with the help of my shiny new diamond sword! Once they were defeated, they dropped some  information about one of the Skywalkers! His  

Name was Luke, and there was a map leading  to his location! Now I just had to find him!  On days 71 to 74, I started traveling towards the  location on the map. As I was searching for Luke,   I saw a strange message that  someone had written on the map.

It said: “If you’re enjoying  this adventure, find more Zozo   videos by searching for Z-O-Z-O! And  don’t forget to like and subscribe!” On my journey, I decided I would make a quick  stop at a river to fish, hoping to catch some  

Food for myself and some extra to bring back to  the Stormtroopers at my base. I caught a few fish,   plenty to feed the Stormtroopers and  myself for the rest of my search! But then, Emperor Palpatine appeared before me! “So, fishing on the job, Lord Zozo? You should be  

Looking for Skywalker! We must turn him  to the Dark Side if we are to survive!” “What if he can’t be turned though, Master?” “He will. And once he does, he  will be my newest apprentice.” “What about me?” “I know what you’ve been planning, Lord  Zozo! You think you and young Skywalker  

Can overthrow me! But neither one of you can  stand against the full power of the Dark Side!” Just as I pulled out my lightsaber the Emperor  attacked me with his deadly Force lighting! “Unlimited power!”

I tried my best, but I still wasn’t strong enough  to defeat him! I had to run away to save myself,   but it seemed like Palpatine let me get away. He   knew I was scared of him and was  using my fear against me. I just  

Needed to stay alive to get stronger and  find Luke, so I headed back to my base. On days 75-78, I got to work  improving my base again. I had   to make it even more secure just in case  Palpatine ever attacked the base itself!

It was like I was losing all my allies.  Turning to the Dark Side is no fun at all! Luckily, I had a great idea to make an  underground bunker beneath the main base,   somewhere I could hide out if the Emperor  came to attack before I was ready.

I got to work on the bunker, and before long I  had a great big underground hideout to go to if   the Emperor attacked before I was strong enough,  or before I’d gotten Luke to help me beat him. After I was done, some of the Bounty  Hunter gang came to me with a gift:  

It was a red lightsaber , a powerful  weapon suited to a Sith Lord like me. “We heard you were trying to overthrow  the Emperor, so take this lightsaber   to help you get stronger while  you’re searching for Skywalker!” With my new weapons, and the knowledge  that other people believe in my quest  

To take down the Emperor, I grew  bigger, and gained more hearts!  On days 79-84, I decided to test my new  strength while I was trying to track down   Luke again. I went out into the desert  and found some Gamorreans to fight with. “Time to try out my shiny new lightsaber!”

The vicious piggy aliens came at me  with their axes, but I quickly knocked   them back and took them all out. After  I defeated the rest of the Gamorreans,   I realized they had been keeping  two familiar droids prisoner. “R2 and Threepio? Is that you??” To my surprise, It was my two old friends!

“It can’t be! Oh, thank the Maker,   Master Zozo it is you! Thank you for  saving us from those ghastly Gamorreans!” “Oh, don’t be rude, R2! Yes, I know he does look  different, but he’s still the same Zozo at heart!” “Hey, you’re right! And now I’m much stronger  too! Say, can you guys help me find someone?” “Of course, sir, we’d be happy to help!” “I need to find Luke Skywalker!” On days 85 to 89, I went back to   my base while Threepio and R2 went to find  out where Luke was! But when I got back,   my castle was under attack  by an army of Stormtroopers.

They had Scout Troopers with them, and huge AT-ST  walker! This could only have been the work of the   Emperor, he knew I wanted Luke’s help to defeat  him and was trying to smash up my base to stop me! There were so many of them it was dangerous  just trying to get close. Thankfully,  

I still had my bow and plenty of  arrows that I had made earlier. “I might be better with my lightsaber,  but I’m still a mean shot!” I hit a number of the Scout Troopers, causing  the Stormtroopers to turn heel and run.

But the big AT-ST was still attacking my  base! The walker was so much taller than me,   I had to be careful if I wanted to take  it down: one stomp and I would be gone. I rushed at the AT-ST, swinging my sword at  its legs. If i could take out one of them,  

I could cause the whole walker to  topple over and come crashing down! I had to stay calm, use the Force, remember all  the lessons I had learned. From Yoda and Obi-Wan,   even though they weren’t with me anymore.  Patience, that’s what Obi-Wan was always saying.

With a few well-placed swings of my sword,  the AT-ST was done for, and fell right over   to the ground! When it was over, someone  appeared from nearby and came up to me. “I knew there was still good in you! ”

I turned around to see who it was  and, even though we hadn’t met before,   I knew it was Luke! I was so happy to see him!   On days 90-94, I headed off the same direction  that the Stormtroopers had run off in after  

Causing so much destruction at my base. After  what felt like hours of tracking, I found a cave. “This has got to be where they’re  hiding out! I better take a look:   I’ll get those Stormtroopers to tell  me where the Emperor is hiding!”

I snuck into the cave, and saw  that it was empty except for   one strange figure standing alone,  almost like he was waiting for me! He was dressed in black robes similar to  the Emperor, but he had red skin and horns  

Sticking out of his head. I could sense he  was strong in the Dark Side of the Force. “Who are you?” “I have gone by so many names, but you may  call me Maul… Darth Maul! My Master Lord  

Sideous revived me and sent me here to make sure  you don’t stand a chance of overthrowing him.” “Why would you work for him? The Emperor only  cares about himself, once he’s finished with you   he’ll find another new apprentice to replace  you so you don’t end up turning on him too!”

“No, we will rule the galaxy side-by-side,   something you could never do! Now, draw  your weapon, Vader, and let’s end this!” I drew my lightsaber ready for a fight.  After all of my training and experience,   I was feeling more ready than ever  to take down this new enemy! But  

When Darth Maul rushed at me, I knew  it wasn’t going to be an easy fight! I had never fought another Sith before, he  was skilled in the ways of the Dark Side.   He was incredibly fast and strong, definitely  the toughest opponent I had faced so far! I  

Needed a moment to think so I ran back away  from him, and stood ready to defend myself.  On days 95 and 97, I continued battling  against Darth Maul in the cave! It was a pretty close battle, we were  evenly matched, but putting some space  

Between us helped give me a moment to wait  before I could land a critical strike! I dealt some extra damage to Maul,  which gave me the advantage I needed! “No, mercy! Please, have mercy!” I stopped for a second; I had already defeated  him, knocking him down. But I didn’t destroy him,  

If I struck him down in anger I’d never  be able to get back from the Dark Side. So, instead, I spared him. With Darth Maul beaten, and not going anywhere,  I decided to look around the cave for anything  

I could use, and found myself a shiny new  battleaxe! That was bound to come in handy. I turned back to the fallen Maul. “Now then, let’s get you back to my base;  you’re going to tell me everything about  

Where the Emperor is hiding so Luke and I  can go and deal with him once and for all!” I took Darth Maul back to my base and  put him in the barracks there. After all,   those Stormtroopers weren’t  using the place anymore. “Tell me where I can find the Emperor!”

“Fine. I can draw you a map  to the new battlestation   he’s building. And you’ll let me go afterwards?” “Only if you promise to turn  your back on the Dark Side.” “I fear it might be too late for that.” “Fear leads to anger. Anger leads  to hate. Hate leads to suffering.  

Don’t be afraid, just give being good a try.” Thanks to Maul, I now knew where Luke and I had  to go to get rid of the Emperor once and for all!  On Day 98, after getting the new map from Maul,  

I decided to make a final check on everything  at my base before setting off. Luke had brought   my two old droid friends R2 and Threepio  back, along with some of his friends too. As I was meeting them, I realized I did recognize  a couple of them. It was Han Solo and Chewbacca,  

The smuggler and the Wookie I had  fought earlier while searching for Luke! “Relax, Chewie, Luke told us the situation! Lucky  for us we survived that encounter in the cave!” “Ah, yes sorry about that! I’m so glad  to see that you two are recovering well!” “Well, we wouldn’t be if it  wasn’t for Leia over there!”

Next, they introduced me to Princess Leia.  It turned out she was the other Skywalker,   and that meant that she and Luke  were actually brother and sister. Then, a pair of glowing Force ghosts appeared:   it was my two old masters Obi-Wan and  Yoda! I couldn’t believe what I was seeing!

“I never thought I’d see the day when  you turned back to the Light, Zozo.” “But beware, you must! Do not  underestimate the powers of   the Emperor or suffer the same fate you will” “I believe in him, I’ve sensed the good in  him. We can defeat the Emperor together.”

“Then may the Force be with you.” It seemed like everyone believed I had what it  took. With Luke and his amazing friends in my   corner, the Emperor didn’t stand a chance! On day 99 I followed the map that Maul had  

Made to Emperor Palpatine’s lair. It was now  or never, with only one more day left or I   would be lost to the Dark Side of the Force  forever. Plus I had to help protect Luke too,  

There was no way I was going to let the  Emperor bring him over to the Dark Side too! “We won’t fail, I know it.” “Thank you, Luke!” We soon reached a massive battle station  under construction, with armor made out   of diamonds to protect it from damage. And  the place was swarming with Stormtroopers!

There were so many of them, but I wasn’t  scared. I knew that I could take them all on,   because this time I wasn’t alone! I had Luke by  my side, and the Force was strong with both of us! On Day 100, Luke Skywalker and I fought  

Our way through the Stormtroopers and  headed inside the diamond Death Star! The whole place was crawling with troopers,   but Luke and I managed to get through  into a large, open room with a throne at   one end. And sitting in it was Emperor  Palpatine himself, cackling loudly. .

“Mwah-ha-ha, so you have brought  me young Skywalker after all!” “No, we’re here to stop you!” “Your reign is at an end,  Your Highness! You failed.” “So be it, Jedi. If you will not  be turned, you will be destroyed!” Suddenly, he started to shoot at  Luke with his Force lightning!

“Young fool, your feeble skills are no  match for the power of the Dark Side! Now,   you will pay the price for your lack of vision!” “NOOOO!” I pulled out my new battleaxe and rushed in  to defend Luke! But before I could attack,  

The Emperor used the Force to throw  me aside and I dropped my axe! “You couldn’t destroy me before, you don’t  really believe you’ll destroy me now,   do you? You underestimate  the power of the Dark Side!” “Zozo, please, help!” My lightsaber , I still had that!

I didn’t let up, Luke needed my help. I  could feel the Light Side of the Force   returning to me as I raced towards Palpatine.  He turned to try and defend himself from me,   which meant Luke could get back up to help!

“The hate is swelling in you now. Take  your weapons and strike me down! Give in   to your anger. It is unavoidable. It  is your destiny. You are both mine.” “No, we don’t have to be like you!” I rushed at the Emperor with my lightsaber  and knocked him back. He fell down a huge  

Chasm in his battle station, screaming as  he went down and down until he exploded!. “Luke… help me take this mask off.” “Let’s not stick around here,  I’ve still got to save you!” “You already… have, Luke. You were  right. You were right about me.”

And thanks to Luke, I had  come back to the Light Side!
