INT. NEW REPUBLIC HEADQUARTERS - MISSION BRIEFING ROOM LUKE SKYWALKER, COMMANDER REX, and ZEB ORRELIOS are sitting at a table, receiving a mission briefing from CHANCELLOR MON MOTHMA. MON MOTHMA (gravely) There are people here on Coruscant that still show allegiance to the Empire. ZEB (firmly) Where do you want us to go? MON MOTHMA (pointing to a holographic map) LiMerge Building, it's the lair Sidious once used. LUKE (realization dawning) Palpatine... LUKE straightens up in his seat, determination in his eyes. LUKE We'll find it and we'll find any Imperial Remnants. MON MOTHMA (nods) Long live the New Republic. The group stands, ready to embark on their mission to root out any remaining traces of the Empire on Coruscant. FADE OUT.

INT. LIMERGE BUILDING - ABANDONED LAIR - DAY LUKE, REX, and ZEB cautiously make their way through the dark, abandoned corridors of the LiMerge Building. The air is thick with dust and the lingering scent of darkness. As they round a corner, a group of STORMTROOPERS appear, blasters at the ready. REX (grimly) Great, just what we needed. LUKE immediately ignites his lightsaber, deflecting the blaster bolts with precision. REX and ZEB quickly join in the fight, firing back at the Stormtroopers with their blasters. They fight their way through the onslaught, making their way deeper into the building. The sounds of blaster fire echo through the empty halls as they run, seeking cover in a nearby room. LUKE (panting) We need to find a safe place to regroup. REX (nods) Agreed. Let's keep moving. ZEB (determined) We won't let them stop us. The trio gathers their resolve, ready to push forward and confront whatever lies ahead in their mission to eradicate the remnants of the Empire. FADE OUT.

INT. LIMERGE BUILDING - ABANDONED LAIR - CONTINUOUS LUKE, REX, and ZEB cautiously advance through the dimly lit corridors of the LiMerge Building. Suddenly, they come face to face with an IMPERIAL OFFICER, who brandishes a blaster at them. LUKE immediately utilizes the Force to disarm the Officer, rendering him defenseless. LUKE (intensely) Talk to me now. Are there any other Imperials, on any other planet? LUKE narrows his eyes, sensing the fear and desperation in the Officer. LUKE You must have a suicide shocker, don't you? You're too afraid to use it though. OFFICER (pleading) Please, I don't wanna die! I'm not with the Empire, I'm a Scientist! LUKE (intrigued) A scientist? OFFICER (breathlessly) The Imperial Remnants are planning something, Project Necromancer. LUKE (concerned) What's that? Before the Officer can respond, a DEATH TROOPER emerges and fires a blaster, fatally wounding the Scientist. REX and ZEB react quickly, warning LUKE about the approaching threat. LUKE (calmly) Don't worry. Death Troopers are my specialty. The Death Troopers unleash a barrage of blaster fire at LUKE, who skillfully deflects the shots with his lightsaber. LUKE (to REX and ZEB) Take the Scientist's body to the ship. I'll take care of the Troopers. REX and ZEB nod in understanding, grabbing the Scientist's body and making a run for the ship as LUKE engages the Death Troopers in a fierce battle. The sounds of blaster fire and lightsaber clashes fill the air as LUKE valiantly holds off the Imperial forces, determined to protect his team and uncover the secrets of Project Necromancer. FADE OUT.

EXT. LIMERGE BUILDING - ABANDONED LAIR - LAUNCH PAD - DAY REX and ZEB urgently yell at CHOPPER, their loyal astromech droid, to start up the ship as they load the Scientist's body onboard. The engines roar to life as the ship begins to lift off the ground. LUKE rushes out of the building, sensing the imminent danger behind him. With a graceful Force-enhanced leap, he lands on the ship just before it takes off, narrowly escaping the pursuing STORMTROOPERS. The Stormtroopers fire blasters at the ship, their shots peppering the hull as it ascends into the sky. But it's too late - the ship escapes their reach, disappearing into the clouds. LUKE (panting) When we get back, take the Scientist's body to the medical station immediately. We need all the proof we can get. REX and ZEB nod in agreement, understanding the importance of the Scientist's knowledge and the implications of Project Necromancer. As they leave the dangerous world of Coruscant behind them, the trio prepares to uncover the dark secrets of the Imperial Remnants and ensure the safety of the New Republic. FADE OUT.

INT. NEW REPUBLIC MEDICAL STATION - DAY The SCIENTIST, still weak and recovering, sits up in bed as LUKE approaches him, a serious look on his face. LUKE (softly) I need to know about Project Necromancer. The fate of the New Republic depends on it. SCIENTIST (nervously) I can't tell you too much. The Empire is watching us. LUKE (reassuringly) Don't worry. No one else is here but us. SCIENTIST (desperately) You don't understand. The Empire is everywhere. There are citizens, workers, who show allegiance to the Empire on every planet, every sector. And there could be an Imperial spy in this very building. LUKE (gravely) I know. Using the Force, LUKE gestures towards the Scientist. LUKE You will tell me about Project Necromancer. SCIENTIST (defiantly) Oh, c'mon, I'm a genius Scientist. Jedi Mind Tricks don't work on me. LUKE (firmly) Just tell me what Project Necromancer is. The Scientist hesitates, the fear and defiance evident in his eyes. SCIENTIST (resolute) I refuse to talk. Despite the Scientist's reluctance, LUKE remains determined to uncover the truth behind Project Necromancer and stop whatever dark plan the Imperial Remnants have in store for the galaxy. FADE OUT.

INT. NEW REPUBLIC MEDICAL STATION - CONTINUOUS ADIMIRAL ACKBAR strides into the room, his presence commanding attention. ACKBAR (authoritatively) If he doesn't tell us, then we might have to go harder on him. LUKE (firmly) No. That's not how the New Republic operates. ACKBAR (insistent) We must know about Project Necromancer. The safety of the galaxy is at stake. LUKE (resolute) There are other ways to get the information we need. Violence is not the answer. ACKBAR (understanding) I respect your stance, but time is of the essence. We cannot afford to wait. LUKE (persisting) Trust in the Force, Admiral. We will find a way without resorting to extreme measures. ACKBAR considers LUKE's words, the weight of their mission heavy on his shoulders. ACKBAR ( reluctantly) Very well. We will proceed as you see fit. But know that the fate of the New Republic rests on uncovering the truth about Project Necromancer. With a shared determination, LUKE and ACKBAR set out to find a peaceful yet effective way to extract the much-needed information from the Scientist, ensuring the galaxy remains safe from the looming threat of the Imperial Remnants. FADE OUT.

INT. NEW REPUBLIC MEDICAL STATION - CONTINUOUS As ADMIRAL ACKBAR turns to leave the room, a sense of resolve in his demeanor, he pauses at the doorway. ACKBAR (gravely) But if he doesn't tell you, then we must resort to extreme measures. LUKE meets Ackbar's gaze, his expression reflecting a mix of determination and reluctance. LUKE (nodding) As you wish, Admiral. With a heavy heart, Luke prepares himself for the possibility of having to take unconventional actions in order to uncover the truth about Project Necromancer. The weight of the responsibility he bears for the safety of the New Republic weighs heavily on his mind. ACKBAR gives Luke a last nod of acknowledgment before stepping out of the room, leaving Luke alone with the Scientist and the pressing mission at hand. The tension in the room is palpable as Luke contemplates the difficult choices that may lie ahead, knowing that the fate of the galaxy hangs in the balance. FADE OUT.
