This a summary of what the story is about.

Caught between the Jedi and the Chancellor Palpatine demands. Anakin takes a dangerous gamble with his life to get out..However Anakin gambled wrong and lands into a coma. There he faces a blackness that only wants to kill him. Well Anakin win and walk away whole. Or will the blackness destroy him and leave a broken Jedi?

While Padme and Obi-Wan care full him. While Obi-Wan is caring for him. He face was a challenge that could alter his life forever. Does he walk the Jedi path or turn another way.

Now out of the coma, Anakin must rebuild his life again. While facing the future as a father well as his demons of his past. While Obi-Wan must make a choice about life.

Chapter 1-28 are the coma part, Chapter 29- are dealing the after effects.

Now it sounds like I gave away what happen in the story. However the Anakin's coma part was written special way. So you'll have read the story to found out. Plus a certain deceaced Jedi does make appearance in the story. So enjoy your wild ride with story. I'm the type who likes to throw hard core StarWars rules out the window!

And please stop going by first couple chapters. I planned to rewrite them after I'm done with the story

Yes another AU fiction to read. I guess I'm not the only one who wanted Anakin to live as Anakin Skywalker not as Darth Vader. This is my first attempt of a story of any kind. I'm better poet and photographer. Please excuse the grammar errors. I do run the story through WordPerfect's grammar checker. But thanks to my learning disability, I don't understand what the program telling me sometimes. I got the idea from coming up with another way to end Revenge of Sith differently and from some reason. Guns N' Roses song Coma entered my mind. No, I haven't seen the movie. I'll admit. I'm waiting for the DVD come out. I don't like crowds. So enough of me, onto the story.

Jun24 update/ please don't go by the first chapter .Read the whole story first before judging. I'm the type of writer, who doesn't show her whole hand what she up to. And do have a twist to this story.

The morning light of Coruscant

The Chosen One
chooses another path
for himself

It was night in Coruscant. Lights are dim and the stars I see, are in my mind. Right now, I'm sitting in a balcony, gazing at all this. My thought's switches between the worlds I live in. Only Padme's hurts the most. Tried not to think about the twins that she doesn't know of. Well she wanted a surprise. Back to Palpatine and the Jedi. Why, why are you doing this to me. Gazing over the edge. I get up and walk over to it. All those lights and I have to turn to darkness.

No one knows I'm here, back to the chair. Counting light's that goes dark. I feel in my hand, my future. A small long round thing. Not much is needed. Just enough for darkness. Padme again. When will she finds it or will it never be found. Really it does matter, if I fail. Yes, you do owe her the truth. Jedi preaches it and they don't know it.

I hold up my decider. One Ancordon bottle. Rolling it, that small wave gives me a touch of comfort. And I cry like my future newborns. Quickly I take a deep breath. Not ready to jar the Force. I'll need them later.

One more thought of Padme. Before I left, a kiss and the sense of the twins. Then I left for here. It will be either a circle or a straight line. Still her heart will break because of me.

Forgive my love.

Palpatine - Damn you, why didn't you hear me say enough.

Jedi Order - you need to change for me to continue. Can't banish love Yoda and Obi. How can I tell you what's wrong, when you never love.

Another tear -

Enough.

Take up the flask and dump the decider in. Swirl it around and swallow. Then get up before the darkness comes. Go to the railing and throw it all away. No, they can't find it. You need to be in the darkness to save you life.

Then you go to the chair, sit and watch the darkness come.

If all is done right, you'll sleep for a month or two. Guess wrong, the real darkness.

Everything grows dark. Anakin sits in a chair, watching. Eyes do get heavy. The body does lose the sense of the chair. And what is left of the light, Anakin stumbles to the floor and stretches out.

A wave of unsureness.
Did I gamble right?
Eyes close for the final bet.

Yoda in his chambers, feels the disturbance in the force.
Reaching out to it.

Anakin -

So in this little world, you find yourself enmeshed in clashes of clashes of grey and black.

You take a step
and slipped.
Then sliding downward
Realizing -

You tossed a bad throw

Then you start grasping the grey. Desperate to get up and away from the slide.

Yelling out, hoping.

Yoda at the balcony -

Anakin on the ground, convulsing and grasping for any air. Yoda kneels down, places a hand on the arm and jolted by a force taking a life.

Then also, the calling out -
Silence . . .

"Hurry" "Hurry". "What's happening?" "Something about Anakin?" "Anakin"

Je-Hu and Mace Windu calling for the Healers to hurry and running to Anakin too. Others sense the disturbance, drop and run too. They feel his life slipping.

Mace helps lift Anakin's quieting form onto the stretcher. Letting go of Anakin's hand, when he wheeled away. A Healer come, only to shake his head.

Sliding again,
Every cell clawing.
Screaming, anything to stop.

Yet the body is still.

In the Healers Quarters, you don't see the franticness of the Save. A breather mask is place on, forcing air into unsteady lungs. Monitors' pads stuck on you. With their noises adds more cutting tension. Orders are given, things dropped. They have healed the war wounded. But you are the unknown battle.

You don't hear a sound.
Blackness swells around you.
I can't sense my hand
I can't sense my legs
Nothing is sense
Only blackness

I'm sorry, Forgive me.

You give up and let go.

All the alarms sound off. One round object is place on your chest. It is set off, which causes you to arc up. Again, Again and Again.

Finally - the machine and the heart echo the right notes.

The Healer comes out to the waiting Council. "His heart has stopped. We were able to revive it. He has difficultly in breathing, so he is on a breather. Also, Brain function is erratic. Healer, pausing for a moment. " I'm waiting for the analysis of the blood samples. I saw no signs of entry of a weapon or anything else. Nothing. Something doesn't make sense"

"C-3P0? C-3P0?"

"Yes" "Yes Mistress" he answers.

"Any messages from Anakin" Padme asks, looking over her calls list.

" No afraid not I haven't heard from him since this morning"

" Jedi business again" "I'll leave him a message" Padme crossly mumbles and went to the comlink.

"Anakin - This is Padme. When you get a moment, we need to talk about C-3P0. I think his arm is acting up again"

Padme smiles, "Your arm is going to need servicing if you don't answer back soon"
