This first chapter of my story tells how the main characters of our fanfiction got into the situations which they are in now.

Maul is found by Yoda and trained as a jedi , Dooku stays loyal to the order , Qui Gon survives and trains Anakin , what would the galaxy look like? Story starts after the battle of Geonosis

The droid army (battle of Geonosis)

General Grievous was the leader of the droid army and was personally taught by Sidious. The general lured the jedi into a trap on Geonosis but was forced to retreat due to the 'not so secret to him' clone army coming to the rescue

Maul

Maul was an amazingly powerful jedi

The 31 year old had been promoted to master at the age of 24

Maul was one of the two jedi that Yoda had officially trained as his apprentices, but Yoda basically thought all younglings in the temple

Yoda had found the Zabrak on Dathomir and managed to make a deal with Maul's mother , Talzin to keep the Dathomir witches as allies

Maul had a powerful connection to the dark side of the force , Yoda had taught him to let go of these feelings and lock them away

Maul was similar to Mace Windu , using a purple lightsaber combined with dark side techniques but only if necessary

The Zabrak jedi master had a really close friendship with Obi Wan Kenobi , the two of them were a legendary team while taking on the droid army

Maul was a force adept at it's best , able to meditate for hours and hours , his record was only beaten by master Yoda

Maul had trouble meditating lately however due to the dark side clouding everything

His blue eyes stared into the Coruscant sky and he wondered what the point in all of this was

Anakin

Anakin stared at his new mechanical hand

Qui Gon entered the room and held Anakin's mechanical hand

Anakin felt like he had disappointed his master, he had recklessly charged at Grievous without thinking

"I'm sorry, master"

"There is nothing to be sorry about , Anakin" Qui Gon said

"However you are not getting away so easily , this week's training will be dedicated to staying calm in battle"

"I'm looking forward to it master !" Anakin said trying to not sound unhappy

Anakin was dismissed and went to his quarters

Anakin and Qui Gon had been too late to save his mother

Thank god his master was there or he would have done something that would've haunted him for the rest of his life

It was late at night and Anakin let his thoughts dwell and fell asleep

Palpatine

The chancellor was sitting in his office thinking of his plans

He knew that Anakin was the chosen one but he could not seduce the boy

Qui Gon would never let Anakin out of his sight when dealing with the senate and the boy was to attached to his master to be turned so easily

Palpatine had recently taken on an apprentice , a female called 'Asajj Ventress'

Ventress was strong in the force and had amazing potential

Palpatine let out a sigh, disappointed that his plans for Anakin had failed , the galaxy however ...

Would soon bow to the might of the Sith
