Has anyone considered having Ryouga missing the planet earth entirely

thing called Yoda and Yoda begins training him to be a Jedi Knight?  
There he finds out that his family's directional curse was gentically 
engineered by one of the Imperial Scientists.  Where the Scientist also 
happens to know the ways of the Dark Side of the Force, where he was 
kept in reserve just in case Darth Vader was destroyed?  

If this makes any sense to you, let me know.

You know for some strange reason this all makes sense to me. Sounds like a
good plot for a X-over fic to me!
