Star Wars - Alternate ROTS

This starts after the clone wars begin, where a human Jedi padawan of Mace Windu has an idea that ends up saving many of the Jedi

It was late in the afternoon on Coruscant, and quiet in the Jedi temple, however Padawan Gwen Icee was feeling very nervous. Although Jedi are not supposed to experience high emotions she could not help but feel that becoming generals fighting wars in the galaxy was a very bad idea for the Jedi. They were peacekeepers, not warriors!

Not to mention that the Chancellor lately seemed to have a dark aura around him, as if the Sith were his closest advisers, or if he was one himself. That particular thought gave her great worry, because although the clones seem to obey the orders of the Jedi, Chancellor Palpatine had visited Kamino recently, and assumed total command of the entire clone facility.

If he was even working for the Sith, he would be able to add a command into the clone programming that would order them to kill any and all Jedi within range. Also the troops on Coruscant would possibly march on the Jedi temple, killing every Master, Knight, padawan, and even the younglings would not be safe from them.

However, she suppressed her emotions, and went to find her master. As the oldest and one of the wisest Jedi, Master Windu might be willing to listen to an idea she had that would save many Jedi, and at least set her mind at peace. If he agreed, than she would have visit the mechanical facility, and above all, make sure that only the Jedi knew about her plan. Even the Chancellor himself must never know of her plan.

She found her master talking with Jedi Master Yoda in the council room. Summoning up her courage she walked over, and waited for them to acknowledge her presence.

Almost immediately both Masters turned to face her.

"Young padawan icee, glad to see you, I am. Something on your mind, you wish to tell us?" Master Yoda said.

"Yes Masters, there is concern I have about the Jedi going out as generals to fight this war with the separatist forces. As peacekeepers, isn't it against the Jedi code to partake in war? Surely the clones do not need us to lead their forces into combat?"

"Indeed you are right my young padawan, but the clones need our help in getting past many problems for each system, particularly the indigenous life forms on each planet. Felucia acklays gave the clones a lot of trouble before Aayla Secura and Shaak Ti joined them. Also on the planet Ylesia, the reeks were killing clones with ease until Masters Quinlan Vos and Ki-Adi Mundi joined them and used their mind powers to calm them down," Master Windu replied.

"Nevertheless, a good point, you make, young padawan. Peacekeepers we are, warriors we are not. A plan you have, I sense. Help us out, could it?" Yoda added.

"Yes Masters, it could. I wish to outfit every knight and master with a device that will alert them to leave whatever mission they are on and return them to Coruscant. I would keep an additional device in the temple that would activate the devices should it become necessary, by using Coruscant's powerful radar relay, it would reach every device in the Galaxy if it used that machine"

"An interesting idea, my young padawan, but why would you want to get our Jedi away from the clones? They obey our orders, and therefore would surely aid us in returning?" asked Master Windu
