A Blast from the Past
They landed without problem on Coruscant, the city planet as big and active like always. Leia, Han, and I went off to the Senate Building, Chewy stayed with the ship, because a big wookie walking around the city would just cause problems.
They walked down the streets; it wasn't as hard as they thought it would be to reach the Senate Building.
"Ok, I'll meet you guys at the Temple later after I try to talk the senators into becoming a Republic again, see you soon. Oh stay out of trouble" Leia added before heading up the steps. We waited until she was out of sight then headed to the Jedi Temple.
When we got to the Temple, I was happy to see it was still mostly intact. But as we headed inside I was horrified. A gruesome sight lay before us, bones littered the ground, some bones were incased in white-gray armor telling me they were stormtroopers. I can't imagine what happened; all I know is that the stormtroopers attacked the Jedi.
I keep walking trying not to look at them, when my foot slipped out of under me.
"Luke, are you ok?" Han came over and helped me up; I nodded and looked to see what tripped me. It was a lightsaber and to it was a small skeleton, showing me it belonged to a young child. Picking up the lightsaber and ignited it, it once was bright green, but without being used much, it had faded into a dull green color. This child showed how little mercy was given, not even the youngest children were spared. I kept walking through the bodies, the force helped fell the pain that they went through.
"Luke come look what I found." Han yelled over to me. He was standing over a security video; as soon as I came up he played it. What the hologram showed was horrible.
Lines of stormtroopers marched up the stairs, blasting anything that moved. The trooper's armor was white with blue stripes (I guess it showed what unit they were from). Jedi fought back bravely killing many troops in one swing of their lightsaber, but there were too many, the stormtroopers were never ending. Bodies already litered the ground, Jedi and stormtrooper alike. Then a group of young children jumped from their hiding places, attacking the troopers. (One of the lightsabers stood out from the rest, it had the same hilt as the one I just had in my hands.) It was used by a little girl, soon she was the last one standing, and she looked at the last trooper attacking her and she had knocked his blaster out of his hands. Finally she leapt at him swinging her lightsaber down, but he dodged and grabbed her arm deactivating the lightsaber, then pulled her to the ground. He restrained her, then he whispered something into her ear, that made her look up at him with bewildered eyes that changed into acceptance and forgiveness, before he sank a knife into her neck, killing her instantly. Then he got up and walked away.
Then the scene changed and there was a small room, a door opened a man walked in, his shaggy dark brown hair swayed in front of his eyes. (That's when I saw the group of children younger than the last) A young boy stepped out and up to the man. "Master Skywalker, there are too many of them what are we going to do?" the boy asked. The man just looked at him, before igniting his blue lightsaber and slicing through the young boy and soon did the same to the others.
That's where we stopped watching, it was horrifying, and now I knew what my father had done. Han looked at me with sadness in his eyes, it had to be the first time I had seen sadness in him before.
"It's horrible isn't, so many lives lost, young and old, for what?" a voice spoke behind them. They turned to see an old man with gray hair and deep brown eyes.
"Who are you and why are you here?" I asked. The old man chuckled before he responded.
"My name is of no importance and as for why I'm here I could ask you the same question" he said with humor glittering in his eyes.
"What do you mean by that?" Han asked his voice filled with annoyance.
"I mean no one has been here since the battle that you just watched." he said.
"Then why are you here?" I asked
"I saw you walk up here and wondered why, but now I can see that Jedi, am correct?" he asked looking at us.
"He's the Jedi not me" Han said, looking at me.
"Yes, yes, well I better be off, good luck" the man said before turning away and disappearing down the steps. Han and I looked at each other like what was that all about.
Well that was Chapter two, and I'm sorry if that's not exactly what the boy said to Anakin but it's been a while since I saw that movie, ok.
