Star Wars Divergence Timeline

Princess Leia's ship is captured, R2-D2 and C-3P0 make it to an escape pod and eject. On Board the Star Destroyer a deck officer notices that a pod has ejected but there are no life signs aboard. He is ordered to use it for gunnery practice. The pod is destroyed. Young Luke Skywalker completes the season's harvest and applies to join the Imperial Academy. His application is accepted and he begins training as a TIE fighter Pilot. Obi Wan Kenobi learns of this and attempts to stop him. He is unable to reach the Mos Eisley in time and Luke leaves Tatooine. Han Solo is arrested by Imperial Troops for smuggling offences, pays a 1000 credit fine and leaves Mos Eisley. Luke completes his TIE Training and graduates top of his class. As a reward he is posted to Lord Vader's Squadron on the Death Star. Upon meeting Skywalker for the first time Vader recognises the strength of the young pilot and begins training him in advanced TIE Piloting. Obi Wan Kenobi discovers that Luke is aboard the Death Star, and also what the purpose of the Death Star is. He also discovers that Princess Leia is also on board and using his mastery of the Jedi arts is able to free her almost undetected. Obi Wan Kenobi reaches the rebel outpost but during the journey has discovered Leia's true identity and offers to train her as a Jedi knight, Leia accepts and begins training. Darth Vader, after confirming with The Emperor, takes Luke as his Sith apprentice, granting him the name Darth Praetorius, Luke quickly takes to the dark side and becomes almost as strong as Vader and a better Pilot. The Imperial forces track down the rebel outpost having tracked the course of Kenobi's ship. The Rebels intention to attack the death star is discovered. Vader orders Darth Praetorius to the planets surface where he is to assasinate Princess Leia during the Rebel attack. The Assasination goes without a hitch as although Leia was good, the Sith was better and returns to the Death Star with her head. Rejoining his Squadron, Praetorius and Vader lead the counter attack on the rebel assault routing it. The Planet is destroyed as revenge. Obi Wan Kenobi dies in the blast. The Rebellion is crushed once the death of Princess Leia is discovered. On Dagobah, Master Yoda dies aged over 900, no one notices. The final line of Jedi is extinct. Finally the years of the Dark side take their toll on the Emperor. Just before his death he appoints Darth Vader as the new Emperor. Vader, discovering that Skywalker is his son tells Praetorius of his discovery. THEN THEY RULE THE GALAXY...AS FATHER AND SON! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. (Ahem, sorry). Naboo is destroyed as a public example of the power of the Death Star, and as revenge for spawning Jar Jar Binks.
