There are one or two lines that are from one of my favorite movies, besides Star Wars, The Princess Bride. I give credit to William Goldman for those lines. I also give credit to the wonderful site . for the Revenge of the Sith dialogue. And George Lucas deserves the most credit! Thanks George! Or Mr. Lucas. Whatever you prefer. Just don't sue me… So anyways… Revenge of the Sith Parody, if you didn't figure that out. Enough of my blabbering. Here's the story.
"Be careful of the Jedi, Anakin. They fear you. In time they will destroy you. Let me train you." Palpatine insisted.
"I won't be a pawn in your political game. The Jedi are my family." Anakin exclaimed.
"Only through me can you achieve a power greater than any Jedi. Learn to know the dark side of the Force, Anakin, and you will be able to save your wife from certain death." Palpatine pointed out.
"What did you say?"
"Use my knowledge, I beg you . . . "
"You're a Sith Lord!" Anakin ignites his lightsaber.
"I know what has been troubling you . . . Listen to me. Don't continue to be a pawn of the Jedi Council! Ever since I've known you, you've been searching for a life greater than that of an ordinary Jedi . . . a life of significance, of conscience."
"You're wrong!" Anakin says as he circles his former friend.
"Are you going to kill me?" Palpatine asks.
"I would certainly like to." Anakin admits.
"I know you would. I can feel your anger. It gives you focus, makes you stronger."
Anakin raises his lightsaber to Palatine's throat. There is a tense moment, and then Anakin starts to swing. ..

Anakin woke up inside what looked like a coffin. 'What the Hell is going on?' He kicked open the lid to see that he was, in fact, in a coffin. He looked around and saw a lab of some sort surrounding him. No one was around, so he got out and looked around. Medical equipment and tools of some kind were all that was in the room. He found his lightsaber in a safe that he could easily break into. He used it to cut open the doors.
After an hour of snaking through the building, he finally found a window. 'Coruscant. I'm still on Coruscant. But where is Padmé? I don't sense her presence here.' Anakin jumped out the window and landed on a speeder passing by. He continued to jump from speeder to speeder until he found the Jedi Temple. Then it occurred to him, 'That last speeder I was on wasn't like any speeder I have ever seen before.' Anakin thought for a moment. "Probably a new model that a senator is showing off to the planet." He reassured himself.
He reached the Temple and approached the clone guards. "Hey, Lucky. Hey, Ace." He started to walk by when the troopers grabbed him.
"This area is off limits, Sir. Move along." Lucky stated through his helmet.
"Lucky, it's me. General Skywalker."
"General Skywalker is dead. He died after killing that Sith lord from a lightsaber wound to the stomach. Now move along before we call the Jedi out to Force you to." Ace commented.
Anakin was about to argue when a familiar friend showed up. "Obi-Wan!" He ran to him and hugged him. "Boy am I glad to see you. Tell Ace to knock it off and that I really am Anakin Skywalker."
Obi-Wan Kenobi stood horrified, like he had seen a ghost. "Lucky, Ace, take this man into the Temple for questioning."
As the troopers pulled him away, Anakin looked at his old friend with shock and sadness. 'What is going on here?'
-oOo-
"Name?" A trooper started interrogating him.
"Anakin Jason Skywalker." Anakin replied bordly.
The trooper laughed. "Alright, General. Birthdate?"
"July 29th 42 BBY."
"Occupation?"
"Jedi Knight."
The trooper leaned in. "Cut the act. So you know the General's basic information. That doesn't mean that you are him."
Anakin could recognize that voice anywhere. "Rex? Is that you?"
Rex stood back. 'How did he know my name? No one calls me Rex anymore. It's just CC-7567.' "General?" He asked unsurely.
"Finally, Rex." Anakin rolled his eyes.
"One more question. Who was your former Padawan?"
"Ahsoka Tano. But she was 'Snips' to us."
Rex hit his comlink. "General Kenobi. It's really him."
"Are you sure Rex? We can't have another failure or the Council will kill us."
"He knew Me and Snips."
"I'll question him just to make sure."
"Very well, General."
Rex hit the comlink again and stared at Anakin.
"What? Is there something on my face?"
"No, Sir… It's just that…you've kinda been dead for a year."
"WHAT!" 'How can that be? If I've been dead, what about Padmé and the baby. Oh my God, Padmé!'
"Um, Rex… Do you happen to know where Senator Amidala is? She is a good friend and I want to alert her of my existence of being alive."
"We all know that you knocked her up, General. She quit the Senate and is now living on Naboo with her family."
"I gotta go to her." Anakin went to get up when Obi-Wan walked into the room.
"Let's really see if you are Anakin Skywalker. Shall we?" Obi-Wan gave a death glare that stated that he was going to break Anakin if it was the last thing he did.
Anakin gulped. 'I hate it when he has that look.'
