Meanwhile, in outer space.

With the fleet exiting out of Hyperspace, They finally made it to Coruscant. 

Here they see many imperial ships, both civilian and military ships all over the planet's atmosphere and space. They are not surprised if more ships are protecting the capital now. But they both are surprised that more Star Destroyers than before.

Apollyon: That seems a little too much to protect the Capital.

Raven: Looks like the emperors are not taking any chances after losing the Lothal system a few days ago.

Captain Imperial Navy: Sir they received our codes and we're permitted to descend to the atmosphere.

Apollyon: Captain.

Captain Imperial Navy: Sir! (Salute)

Apollyon: Have the Star destroyer lower altitude and prepare our Shuttle.

Captain Imperial Navy: At once my lord (Bow)

They leave the bridge and walk past imperial officers and stormtroopers as they salute them. Soon they reach the hanger where his ship was at.

As they were about to reach the shuttle, They both when the shuttle opened the ramp and reveal three troopers officers wearing clone trooper armor, while another one wearing ISB trooper-type armor. Apollyon smiled and realized who was Coming out. He sees a female trooper officer take off her helmet, around his age.

Apollyon:(Smirk) Eric! Reznya! Sam! it's been a long while hasn't it!

Eric:(Smile) Indeed. Been a while since we last worked together on the field.

Reznya: And we also see you got more new troops battalion and division They are awaits for your order, Sir....also...

She goes to hug her old friend Apollyon then he hugs her back.

Reznya: (Smile) Is good to see you again, Gray though we lost you.

Apollyon: They might need more blasters to kill me (Chuckle)

Sam: (Salute) Is good to see you again Lord Raven.

Raven: (chuckle) Please Commander, How many times I tell you just call me Matt, no formalities, while only us here we are all friends, right?

Sam: (Smile) Very well, Matt.

Eric: Oh! Matt, Gray I would like to introduce you to meet my friend. This is Shawn a close friend of mine from ISB, he will help us as Advisor and Security Bureau. he has admired both your work and your leadership.

Shawn:(bow) Greetings Lord Raven, Lord Apollyon. As my friend Eric says, I am Inspector Shawn. I heard rumors about both of your mission. I am really impressed, and It's a great honor to serve with you at your command.

Raven: It's nice to meet you too Inspector hope we can get along during this journey.

Shawn: Yes, Lord. (Bow)

Raven: Please (Shake his hand), A friend of Eric is a friend of mine. Just call us our name when we are alone, is that clear?

Shawn: (Chuckle) Sure.

Apollyon: So what's the situation?

Shawn: We all here going to transport you both to the emperor's palace, We will wait at outside the palace, while you two meet the Emperor.

Raven: Good, take us there.

Eric / Reznya / Shawn / Sam: Right away, My lord (Bow).

Timeskip

Moments later his ship was all ready and descended down to Coruscant with two TIE fighters for escort. He soon lands at the Senate Building and heads to the emperor's office.

Lord Raven: Leave us.

The two red guards leave the throne room. Apollyon and Raven then lower themselves and kneels before the emperor.

The Emperor: Rise Apollyon, Raven. Raxus 

Apollyon: (rises up)You wished to talk to us about our mission. What is our task?

Sidious: Lord Apollyon, Lord Raven. Have you both dealt with the rebels in the Ilum System, and Odessen System?

Lord Apollyon / Lord Raven: Yes, master.

Lord Apollyon: We encounter rebels activity while they try to scavenger supplies, but we manage those rebel's retreat, Odessen System is now under our control, We also found a Jedi temple, and is secure. My master.

Lord Raven: We found a cave full of Kyber sabers, it's a perfect place to make resources for the Galactic Empire, My lord.

Sidious: You both have done well in your mission. I brought you two here for a secret mission, Your both task is to go to the unknown regions, there are new unknown forces from I scent it.

Lord Apollyon: A force-sensitive?

Sidious: Perhaps...

Lord Raven: Then this is our opportunity to make more Inquisitor or a Sith apprentice.

Sidious: Indeed my old friend, now go and find them...You two may have The 13th Gray Hounds fleet for your new expedition mission and build the station there. This Unknown region that will be a good place for creating a base of operations. Maybe be able to manufacture more ships and vehicles to push back this Rebellion. This is where you come in, other than Lord Vader's fleet, your fleet is far more experienced and advanced to be its protection force. You will be in charge of this part operation.

Lord Apollyon / Lord Raven: As you wish, my master (bow).

Apollyon: With all due respect my lord, it would take many trips to bring resources and come back to get more. How can we able to do that?

Darth Sidious: (Smile sinister) Which is why I have a gift for you. It will help to protect the precious cargo ships. Behold.

The Emperor extends his hand and points to the window.

Raven and Apollyon turn to where They were pointing out and look outside the window, what he thought to see, he certainly didn't expect it.

A giant Star destroyer class ship, being 19,000 meters long and at least 280 meters wide with 13 engines to keep it afloat. Armed with at least 5,000 turbo lasers and Ion Cannons, even Concussion Missile tubes. The hull is made out of reinforced Titanium. This has got to be the biggest Ship the Empire has ever created. 

Including A station that can mobile aircraft refueling station that could operate in maritime environments as well as space. It's called The Colossus and It had a large dagger-shaped structure with only the upper decks being visible when the fuel depot was immersed in water. As a -capable space vessel, the Colossus was equipped with boosters and a Class 2. In addition, the Colossus was also equipped with escape pods.

This colossus was an Executor-class Star Dreadnaught. This made Their eyes widen to see such ships be created. But then smiles as if this is what he needs.

Raven: This will certainly do (Smirk)

Timeskip.

Eric: Wow...I didn't expect this one...(Shocked)

After three days had passed, Raven and Apollyon along with their most trusted companions and friends were watching in the pilot seats as they watch the Empire's new Super Star Destroyer ascending from the sky to space. 

The emperor gave them resources and personnel to work the ship. Most were new fresh recruits, fortunately, there are. But there are some Battalion legions that have been trained as Elite troopers, including Battalion Purge troopers are joining too who swore to theirs.

Sam: Just look at the size of that thing. It would be a miracle." Nova exclaims in awe.

Shawn: With all the crew in our fleet, even they wouldn't be enough to crew this ship." Xal comments.

Apollyon: Which is why the Emperor gave us more personnel to fly this behemoth. And one of my old friends is my Admiral now, sp we don't have to worry about it. 

Reznya: Are you sure it's a good idea, Gray? 

Apollyon: What is it?

Reznya: To bring these new recruits into our fleet. I get we need the manpower. But I noticed that some of them don't agree of see the way you both see us. Most of the officers are arrogant and downright stubborn at times. And some wish to seek glory and fame. They will end up making progress slow. 

He thought about it hard. It wasn't false that most officers and commanders always sought Glory and were overconfident and willing to do whatever it takes to reach the ranks within the Empire. This is one of the reasons that the Empire is losing to the puny rebels.

Raven: Then they're gonna have to learn that we know what we doing. I might be more merciful than our master but that doesn't mean we won't tolerate disobedience or slacking. Don't forget some of them were under my master's command, so they'll know what to do and not to do.

Apollyon: Also if they make something big mistake, they will put a huge (Stern)consequence. 

Reznya: That makes sense. For that, I'm sure there's nothing to worry about (relief).

Eric: The only thing for you to worry about is that mark on your neck.

Eric says to her while he was pointing at her neck where a hickey mark was at. She looks at the mirror to see there was a mark.

Reznya: (Small Blush)E-Eric!! that's your fault! the reason you put it hick there!

She said in embarrassment with her face flush in bright red as she was trying to cover the mark.

Eric smiles as he got close to her and brought his hand to her chin. Raises her head and as they made eye contact.

Eric: (smirk) When we get there, let's go for our "private time." Lieutenant~

Reznya: Sure thing Commander~

Sam: (Facepalm) Ugh... guys. this early!

Shawn: Oh shut up! (Slap behind his head), at least you have 4 girls on you, womanizer.

Sam: First of all I am not a womanizer! Second, that's because I respect them and always take care of them, protecting them from any danger! Also, those 4 are my Adoptive Sisters!!!!

Everyone except him (Thought):  Oh you have no idea, cause they have feelings for you.

This made them all laugh. Soon enough they reach the bridge of their new ship where they do not just see old but new faces as well. Raxus wasn't kidding when the Emperor gave him more troops to man the ship. Just then a group of high-ranking officers walked towards them but one of them is recognized, he has black hair, red eyes on his eyes pupil, a Black uniform, and was a ranking Grand Admiral.

Jason Moff: Greetings gentleman and ma'am,*Turn to look at the two Sith Lords* Lord Apollyon, Lord Raven We have been expecting for your arrival. My name is Grand Admiral Jason Moff, The lead of the 13th hounds fleet. Welcome to the Executor-class Star Dreadnaught " The Hound of Alpha".  And...is nice to see you again Old friend *Smile*

Apollyon: (Small smile) Indeed, Jason.

Raven: (Nod) Is good to see you again old friend, how many ships do we have on this fleet?

Jason: (Smile) We have 26 ships, My lord. 

Raven: *Holden chin* That would be enough for firepower, don't you think Apollyon?

Apollyon: (Nod) Indeed, Jason I want you to tell all captains from other ships to set course to our destination, Awaits from our instruction.

Jason: (Bow) It will be done, My lords. *Before leave* Also, The emperor sends us a couple of Inquisitors to join our mission, My lord. (Bow)

Raven: Inquisitors?

???: That would be us, Lord Raven also greetings old friend.

The two Siths turned around and saw three inquisitors behind them then they bow to the two Sith Lords.

Apollyon: (Smirk) Grand Inquisitor Roxen, Seventh Sister, and Sixth Brother. Is good to see you again.

Roxen: (Nod) Indeed Old friend, We have been ordered by The Emperor to support you two for this mission, and we are also your new assistance if you don't mind.

Apollyon: I see(Holden's chin)...Very well then, You all may welcome to join us of the 13th fleets of the Hounds for this expedition, Grand Inquisitor. You may dismiss.

Roxen: Very well (Bow) Lord Apollyon.

We see the rest Inquisitors and the two Siths are heading separate their route, Scene change The two lords and admiral are on the bridge.

Jason: Status report, officer.

The helmsman: All systems are green, Personals are green, and the engine is online, Admiral.

Jason: *Turn to Sith lords* All ships are ready on your command, My Lord.

Apollyon: Good...Navigator! set course to the coordination and preparation for jump Hyperspace on our command.

Navigator: Yes, My lord. (Bow)

Jason: *Take an intermission coms* This is Grand Admiral Jason Moff, All vessels of 13th hounds Prepare for commencing to jump Slip-space. 

 All ships: (Coms) Right away, Admiral. We awaiting your order, Sir.

Before all vessels are ready to jump to Hyperspace, suddenly an alarm warning sounds. And that makes everyone stay on guard.

Raven: What's going on! report!

Crewman: we've detected strange energy that came out of nowhere and it's pulling us in! (Surprised)

They look in front of them and see nothing out in the vastness of space. But then something started to form revealing every space crew's worst nightmare.

Jason: By the force!! (Shocked)Tell all vessels to fall back!! now!!

Jason orders the crew on the bridge to move them away from the black hole. As the ship tries to move but the engines were not working at full power.

Jason: What's going on! 

Technicians: The black Hole, it's pulling us in! 

Raven: Get us out of here!

The helmsman: We're trying but we can't pull out in time!

Crewman 2: Sir! all vessels are been pulled in too! and our engines are suddenly Offline Sir!

Apollyon: (murmured) Kriff, Everyone, brace for an impact!

braced themselves as the ship was being pulled in. Along with the other ships that were in their fleet. The next thing that happens...The Entire imperial fleet of 13 hounds...Under Lord Apollyon and Lord Raven's Command...Had disappeared.
