I believe that Jonathan had blinded Dragon too, but I think that Jonathan managed to escape the cat after that, but he didn’t make it back to the rat colony.

Also, I actually feel a little outspoken in this, but I think that Jonathan had never really died, but was somehow found by somebody after he was injured and took him in to be healed. I’d like to tell you more about it if you’re interested in hearing about it. It’s my sequel to the film, the one I believe should have taken place.

Okay, and just so you know, the story is also a crossover with Star Wars.

Now before the story begins—a year after the first film—the Clone Wars are reaching its end, months before Revenge of the Sith begins and Palpatine has secretly commissioned an experiment at NIMH to study the effects of introducing a serum into the bloodstreams of living creatures and see if it can increase the midi-chlorians to create a Force-sensitive being; one that Palpatine can control. During Plagueis’ lifetime, he believed that the midi-chlorians did not just provide life to a living being, but with a given enough amount, then theoretically the subject could have the knowledge capacity to become sapient; and doubtlessly have some insight into the Force.

As you can guess, the animals escape and the events of the first film play out as they do. However, one deviation from the film would be Jonathan. I hope that this does not bother you. Although he has clearly failed in his task of drugging the farm cat, he survived the cat long enough to escape—as well as inflicting the wound that blinded the cat in his left eye. He is found by a strange group of mice and awakens aboard a pre-Rebel Alliance medical frigate. Here, he has recovered from his injuries in a bacta tank, but through unexpected circumstances, Jonathan has grown to the size of an average human.

Jonathan soon meets the owner of the craft; Senator Bail Organa. Since the Empire took power, he has been performing covert operations to help systems with no Imperial loyalities remaining independent under the guise of “mercy missions”. He had come to Earth in our time to find and rescue the test subjects of Palpatine’s Force experiments he had heard in passing, shut down the experiments, and find the Stone from the first film because of its powerful connections to the Force that could bring the wielder untold quantities of Force power.

Bail rescued Jonathan because of his Force-sensitivity, in part to a Jedi who had been a part of the NIMH experiments until Order 66 was issued around the rats’ escape. While Jonathan regretfully admits he doesn’t have the “Courage of the Heart” with him, he assures Bail that it is safe for the moment. Before Jonathan returns to Earth, he assists Bail and the Jedi in finding four more equally powerful Force-amulets based on the Jedi trials; “Skill of the Warrior”, “Insight of the Mind”, “Purity of the Spirit”, and “Strength of the Flesh”.

Now, Mrs. Brisby has only beginning to deal with normality of life on the Fitzgibbon farm, but something wrong is happening. She isn't aging as fast as a mouse should; she is now two years old, but is the biological equivalent of a twenty-nine year old human. Even her children are slowing down in their aging as she; which raises suspicion among the field creatures. Even Timothy realizes something’s wrong. But they are the least of their concerns as strange things are happening to them; levitating objects at random, moving at higher speeds, performing intense acrobatics without injury, even minor injuries quickly fade away quickly, Timothy is no longer prone to sickness and has grown to the normal size of his biological age, the children can hear and see things beyond their mere senses, and have dreams that accurately tell the future—even in vague terms and images, sometimes nightmarishly in Timmy’s case.

To complicate matters even more, the Empire has come to the Fitzgibbon farm to buy it from them, or force it from their possession, in order to establish a command post to commence their search operation for the rats. Once they have the farm, the Imperials burn it and the field to drive off any “pests” that could prove problematic to their operations. The Brisbys flee in terror from their burning home and retreat to Thorn Valley for shelter and refuge from the Empire.

And just so you know, Jenner will return in this story because, as Palpatine eloquently puts it, “The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.” Through Jenner’s hatred, his lust for power, and the evil will of the Dark Side, he is found by the Emperor’s agents and returned to Palpatine to serve as a spy for him. Palpatine promises Jenner his revenge on the rats of NIMH, Jonathan Brisby, and Mrs. Brisby in exchange for his services.

But like all Sith, Jenner may never fully uphold his end of the bargain and may begin preparations for his eventual betrayal of the Sith for as Shaak Ti will say in The Force Unleashed, “The Sith always betray one another.” He may gather his six surviving apprentices, that he has taught in secret, as he launches a vicious attack campaign on Thorn Valley with a secret army of rats, weasels, foxes, and ferrets.

Also, it may be Timothy—or Racso from the books—who becomes tempted by the Dark Side, and not Martin, as the story progresses much, much later on. It will also feature Mrs. Brisby more as a character as well as her husband who was barely explored upon in both the movie and the book. Martin may also learn the values of patience and serenity in the children’s path in becoming Jedi.

So what do you think? Do you think it’s something you’d like to read? It’s just a summary of the start of the story and will develop it further. Here’s the link to chapter one: www.deviantart.com/deviation/3… And I may reveal the true fate of the Mice of NIMH too in the following chapters.

Quite interesting. I will read the first chapter. 

As for the location of Thorn Valley and the Fitzgibbon farm, if not on Earth than it could be located on Dantooine instead. Verdant world with simple farmers and nasty predators:

Well, when you read the first chapter, you might understand how I would bring the two universes together and in later chapters as well.
