STAR WARS:
Do or Do Not
By: Jaded of Mara
With the death of General Grievous, the Clone Wars have officially ended. The Supreme Chancellor, Palpatine of Naboo, has been ordered to relinquish his emergency powers. He has refused. The Jedi Council has found sufficient evidence to support the claim that Palpatine is the feared Sith Lord, Darth Sidious. Four Jedi, including Masters Kit Fisto and Mace Windu have been dispatched to arrest the Chancellor and ensure that he stands trial for crimes against the Galaxy. Palpatine, Lord Sidious, has resisted arrest and killed three Jedi, leaving only Master Windu, whom he engages in a duel.
Meanwhile, Jedi Master Obi-wan Kenobi returns to Coruscant in his Jedi fighter, leaving Commander Cody on Upatau to secure the separatist leaders and transport them to the capitol. He is met at the Jedi Temple by Senator Padmé Amidala, who is looking for her husband, Anakin Skywalker.
Anakin has left the Temple to go to the rescue of Chancellor Palpatine…

"You are under arrest, My Lord."
"Anakin! I told you it would come to this! I was right! The Jedi are taking over!"
"The oppression of the Sith will never return. You have lost."
Anakin Skywalker was speechless. Jedi Master Mace Windu stood over Anakin's friend and mentor, purple lightsaber drawn and pointed directly at Palpatine's throat. Despite being so close to certain death, one corner of Palpatine's mouth curled up into a sneer.
"No!" he hissed, eyes flashing yellow in his rage. "No! You must die!"
Blue Force lightening shot from Palpatine's fingers.
"He's a traitor!" Palpatine roared, a particularly strong jolt of lightning emphasizing the accusation.
"He's the traitor!" Windu let out a moan of pain as a fork of energy missed his blade and shot into his chest.
"I have the power to save the one you love," Palpatine reminded Anakin, whose confusion had reached such a pitch that his vision had begun to swim. "You must choose!"
"Don't listen to him, Anakin!" Master Windu yelled. "There's only two ways this can go. Sith or Jedi, Anakin. Which are you?"
Anakin never answered. His moment of indecision gone, he strode forward with purpose. Kill the Jedi traitor, and take your rightful place by my side. Palpatine's voice echoed in his ears.
Kill the Jedi traitor.
With pleasure.
The Force swelled through the room, the combined efforts of Jedi Master, Sith Lord, and Chosen One creating a whirlpool effect. Anything not bolted down flew through the air erratically.
Anakin stepped up beside the battling pair, each so absorbed in the fight that he went unnoticed. He raised his lightsaber, ignited its azure blade, and swung it through the air.
A beautifully sculpted Nubian table ornament connected with the back of Anakin's head, and everything went still.
