Jack: right I own nothing except for my characters now enjoy the fourth chapter of the Jedi Chronicles.
Jack stood by his bookshelf looking through one of his books titled the secret of the purebloods he had got that book like many books from his collection from the archives with Obi-wan Kenobi, an alternate Anakin Skywalker who's Padme was killed in the bombing of her ship and where Palpatine cloned Anakin instead of turning him and while aimlessly wandering hyperspace must have jumped through a dimension portal and Siri Tachi's help they brought them to his ship and that was when they parted ways Jack to Earth Anakin to parts unknown and Obi-wan And Siri after that reality's Anakin who had become a shadow of his former self.
"The legacy of Exar Kun was a ritual to bring back the dead but the ingredients for the ritual are very rare for the bone of the father the blood of sarlacc the flesh of the most obedient servant and the life force of the maiden with the most purest of hearts shall resurrect a chosen Sith pureblood and their soul shall resurrect the god of the sith" he read frowning the 17 year old stroking his beard in thought if they were going to resurrect Darth Destrolos for example who Jack killed in 2011 the maiden would die and if they were going to resurrect one of the gods of the Sith the Maiden would be stuck in a walking coma Jack flipped through a few pages "If the god is resurrected the maiden would be stuck in a walking coma her body a toy for the resurrector and only the master of shadows and the chosen one of balance from this reality and another reality can save her and stop them" he frowned he knew who it meant Jack himself and the two Anakin's but who was the maiden and who would be resurrected the only sith gods he knew of were Typhojem and the Son due to a misadventure with Obi-wan Anakin Siri and Anakin's Padawan on Korriban where Obi-wan got possessed by said god and Mortis back when he was still Obi-wan's Padawan and a Knight he then cursed Alicia was the maiden and if he was correct Sectrilis was the resurrector.
Vader sighed it had been 4 years since the confrontation on Mustafar where he kidnapped Siri after his old 'friend' tried to cut him in half and to keep her alive he was forced to put a very strong Sith mind control on her he treated her well because he couldn't bring himself to even abuse her like his master wanted but his reply was if they treated her well they could being Kenobi over to their side he knew as long as she was alive he had leverage over Kenobi maybe if he promised him her obedience maybe he could bring Kenobi to his side but the bigger problem was the force presence of Anakin Skywalker which was not possible awakening from his meditation he summoned his slave who had been training Mara Jade in the light side which he turned a blind eye to ever since he saved her from Sidious well the Anakin inside him did and Siri had taken it upon herself to care for her well he assigned her to do it after he deduced that she was Mara's mother and after a secret blood test.
"You summoned me Master?" Siri asked bowing after putting the six year old girl to bed.
"I want to know why I keep sensing the presence of Anakin Skywalker in the galaxy" he said partially due to his growing confusion and partially to appease Sidious who kept bothering him about it.
"Because the Anakin you are sensing is from another dimension Master" Siri replied he froze in utter shock.
"That's impossible why are the archives empty anyway?" He asked deciding to solve that particular mystery as well.
"Because Jack took the contents with him to Earth Master" Siri said mentally kicking herself but the programming kept her under.
"Well I won't kill him because he could beat me with an arm tied behind his back just ask why he took them and it's a good place to drop Mara and yourself off when I get my answers you and Mara will stay with Jack" Vader replied even if with Siri's help Jack would beat him into the ground Siri pouted her master needed light in his life and Mara and herself were it.
"And I'll probably be granted leave knowing Sidious thanks for telling me" Vader said dismissing the woman as he reported to Sidious.
"What is it Vader?" Sidious asked disdainfully.
"My slave has informed me of why we sense Anakin Skywalker constantly on the move and why the Archives are empty" Vader replied hatred for Sidious evident.
"Oh do give me the answers and why it took you 4 years to solve this" Sidious said to him.
"Somehow Anakin Skywalker is from another reality and Holmes took the whole contents of the archives to Planet Earth and my reasons are because I never really had the time and because the programming takes 4 years to fully take control you know that" Vader replied.
"Well we can't kill him he can beat both of us with an arm tied behind his back and he would free Tachi" Sidious said with a scowl.
"I intend to interrogate him why and then leave him there because Darth Sectrilis will probably kill him or they'll hopefully kill each other or Jack will kill him and have a quiet exile because from memory he said was tired of all of this shit when Kenobi left to deal with Grievous and he left to fight Sectrilis on Alderaan" Vader replied Sidious scowled.
"First my spy reported seeing both Kenobi and Skywalker on Tatooine alongside seeing Darth Millenious kill the Lars family and a little boy named Luke Skywalker you will take Tachi and capture Millenious and the two Jedi" Sidious said sensing the dark side grow inside of him.
"Yes my master" Vader said ending transmission from memory Millenious was one of Darth Sectrilis's sith lords and he killed a boy who could have been his son deciding to explain it to his slave and Mara later he contacted the bridge.
"Admiral set a course for Tatooine" He ordered.
"Yes Lord Vader" Admiral Griff replied ending transmission sighing.
"Master you're early" Siri said in shock.
"We have been summoned to Tatooine Kenobi and Skywalker have been spotted in the Jundland Wastes and Darth Millenious has been spotted at the Lars Homestead killing Owen Beru and a Boy named Luke Skywalker our orders are to capture the Jedi and Millenious" Vader explained.
"Why am I involved Lord Vader?" Mara asked.
"Because I suspect Kenobi is your father while Siri is your mother" He replied gently soon following the force they found a hut where Anakin was fixing a vaporator while Obi-wan was having a strong drink inside Siri cleared her throat he jumped.
"Have you come to kill us Vader?" Anakin asked wearily.
"No I suspect Millenious is after you and I'm under orders to capture him first may we please bring the little one with us inside out of the heat" Vader said Anakin nodded a guarded expression on his face and together he lead the others inside.
"Oh Luke you were the galaxy's last hope I've failed you Anakin of this reality" Obi-wan said at the counter.
"Getting drunk is not you Obi-wan if you want me to forgive you stop drinking and help me capture Millenious oh and I need a blood sample from you" Vader spoke up Obi-wan fell out of his chair and Siri caught him.
"We have to stop meeting like this" Siri said mildly flirting.
"As I recall I am the one who usually catches you when you fall remember Azure" he replied as Vader took the blood and compared it with Mara's.
"Blood type match paternal" the comlink computer said and Obi-wan studied his daughter before hugging her enthusiastically and Siri joined the hug.
"What do you really want Vader?" Anakin asked him.
"You're help" Vader replied as Millenious flew onto the scene the two ignited their Lightsabres.
"I'm seeing double" Millenious muttered apparently Millenious didn't get the memo about Anakin's dimension jump Vader pushed him into Anakin who knocked him out.
"You truly are me from another dimension" Vader said in amusement tying him up.
"Are you coming with us Daddy?" Mara asked him Obi-wan smiled.
"He has to otherwise we can't leave without suffering a visit from Sidious which is what we don't need" Vader replied last time Sidious killed 10 members of the crew and the worst part of it was they were some of the ones who weren't snobs.
"And I'm coming too" Anakin replied soon they were on the ship and after a chat with Sidious which involved both Obi-wan and Anakin to pretend to swear their allegiance to the empire they were soon on Earth which involved a slight flip out from Obi-wan after discovering the fact they were four years younger having forgotten about the last trip to Earth while Siri was carrying Mara due to the fact she was two years old again.
"You looking for me or what?" they heard Jack speak up and they looked up he was watching a nearby school.
"Yes we are looking for you" Vader said back.
"I'm actually glad to see you Vader because I have just discovered some weird ritual/prophecy from the time of Exar Kun read this" Jack said handing them the book after they were done reading Vader whistled.
"So if they succeed you me and well me are the only ones who can stop it" Vader said.
"If you're calling him me it means you're Anakin again" Jack deadpanned.
"LOOK WHO WE HAVE!" Siri decided to cut in seeing her master's conflicted look as Obi-wan dragged Millenious out of the ship he was growling and cursing.
"Right Millenious What does Sectrilis want with the ritual of Exar Kun tell me" Jack snarled.
"We will resurrect the son with Alicia's soul and you will all fall including the kid because today is the day of judgement for this world" They heard Jack Anakin Vader Obi-wan and Siri scowled while Mara jumped in fright.
"It's the red man who brought me to Scarface" She cried shielding her eyes.
"Obi-wan Siri take Mara to Holmes Castle you both remember the coordinates and wait we'll be back once the final battle is over" Vader ordered one eye was yellow and one was blue meaning he had balanced himself they nodded wishing them well and flew the ship to Holmes Castle.
"ARISE MY ARMY DELAY THEM!" Sectrilis yelled as several sith troopers rose from the ground Anakin Vader and Jack were back to back.
"Right what's the plan?" Vader asked.
"Fight through the troopers and hope we stop the ritual" Jack replied killing two troopers.
"And not die not dying is definitely a plan" Anakin added as they advanced through the wetlands.
"Nomar casar moreus resurrectus godisa" Sectrilis chanted as Alicia's pupils rolled into her head as her body spasmed as a golden orb of energy slowly rose out of her chest.
"NO!" Jack yelled as Darth Ravage pounced to give his lord time as the three blocked Ravage's claws.
"The Son JOIN US ONCE MORE!" Sectrilis yelled there was an explosion of energy Alicia was flung into Jack's arms as the son returned in all off his red eyed glory Sidious opened his eyes sensing the son's return and Vader have balance over the force.
"By the force this will my apprentice's ultimate test" Sidious mused sensing Skywalker and Holmes fight alongside him.
"So I live once more and more powerful than ever it seems thank you Darth Sectrilis" The son said flexing his body.
"My organisation and I are at your command god" Sectrilis said as he and Ravage bowed.
"So we meet again Son it isn't a pleasure" Vader and Jack said the son turned.
"Ahh the shadow and the chosen ones good to see you again Sectrilis Ravage deal with the two Skywalkers the Shadow is mine" the son said the other two lords nodded.
"You may be powerful but you no longer have immortality once we kill you Alicia will be restored" Jack said Lightsabre ignited.
"I may be mortal but I can still crush you" the son said raising his hand and sith lightning shot out of it Jack blocked it.
"So you have balance of yourself Vader" Sectrilis mused as Vader blocked the sith lord's strikes using his blue and red Lightsabres.
"DIE SKYWALKER!" Ravage yelled as Anakin blocked with ease soon he ran Ravage through killing him and noticed Sectrilis going to stab the tiring Vader he jumped in front of it and felt the blade pierce his heart he collapsed to the ground as Vader force pushed Sectrilis into the wall and into unconsciousness.
"Anakin you must fully embrace the light the son will use your darkness against you otherwise" Anakin said joining Padme in his reality's universe soon Vader purged the darkness and became Anakin again meanwhile the Son was wielding Ravage's Lightsabre against Jack soon Anakin joined the fight.
"You are redeemed it seems well I can still kill you both" The son snarled angrily as the duel escalated soon the son felt himself immobilised by parallel Anakin's ghost and together Anakin and Jack killed him.
"Welcome back Anakin Skywalker" Yoda said from his chambers in the castle having sought Jack out after sensing the deaths of Luke and Leia.
"No" Sidious scowled.
"NOOO!" Sectrilis snarled.
"Anakin take Alicia to Holmes Castle" Jack ordered Anakin nodded carrying the slowly awakening girl to Holmes Castle.
"So it's come down to this huh you and me" Sectrilis sneered getting up fully.
"It always does" Jack replied they charged at each other.
"We have confirmation that Jack Holmes has killed crime lord Darth Sectrilis for good this time" A reporter said as around the galaxy celebrations occurred partially for the death of Sectrilis and partially for the death of the emperor whom Anakin Obi-wan Yoda and Jack had defeated and were now rebuilding the Jedi with Mara being the first youngling of the new order where Jedi were allowed to marry as for Siri the mind control had worn off and was getting her revenge by pranking Anakin mercilessly as for Alicia she had become Jack's Padawan and wife in a ceremony officiated by Yoda as for the book detailing the ritual Jack burnt it before they restored the archives in the end all was well.
