I was writing a story once, well actually i was writing two, one was for my own entertainment. One was a story set before episode 1, with Dooku and Qui Gon had heard about the trade federation was building some kind of defense droid scheme thing. Originally to defend trade from pirates etc. Dooku and Qui Gon were sent to investigate, forgot what happens exactly but Dooku gets shot, Qui Gon follows the ventilation shaft and escapes to Coruscant, Dooku gets trapped onboard the TF ship, talks to a dying Neimodian who wants to try and help people with his condition by learning to create ADVANCED replacement organs/limbs with the help of Darth Sidious who has his own plans etc.
In other words this book was going to be parallel to TPM thats how Qui Gon knows his way round and through the ventilation shafts etc. Try and explain Dooku's fall to the darkside, explain who deleted the planet out of the libary. But of course this story has already been explained in EU and also to many contradictions.
My second book was called The Legend of Nemelet, about a planet before ours existed. They live reached the peak of their technology until everything went wrong. Nobody speaks of it. The civilisations find crystals, four of them. They recieve powers from these crystals that give them a power of a certain element, fire, water, earth and air. They then have this idea that they could obtain other crystals from other countries which resulted in a world war. Due to Empodocles theory of hate seperates the elements the universe colapses on itself resulting in a inplosion and then a big bang, the beginning of our time, the crystals survive somehow and end up on earth, some people over time find them, making themselves into gods and religions around the world form. Four teenagers find the crystals and invest in the powers, one guy joins the illuminati who praise this guy with fire to enlighten them as they plan for world domination. Still working on the idea, tweaking it all the time so its not 7 stories in one and too many thing happen along with the main story of Nemelet etc. Still workin progress lol.
