Second chance chapter 4

The Supreme Chancellor sat in his office thinking deeply. Something had changed, something had gone drastically wrong. He peered into the force once more as he had done several times before trying to figure out why his future apprentices fall to the darkside was no longer clear, it had been come very clouded and faint now.

With each passing moment Palpatine grew more and more confused and angery but he still could not figure out what had chanced, he needed a apprentice no doubt about that but with Anakin's future no longer clear it was hard to say if he could find one in time.

Palpatine rubbed his forehead in frustration, all his power and knowledge of the darkside could not make senses of what had changed and this concerned him. He knew he could easily write books about what was going to happen in the future that was how good he was at seeing the future so why couldn't he figure this out.

The elder man got up and walked over to the window looking out at the massive city, with its tall skyscraping buildings that seemed to go on forever; and the people down below who went about their business without a care in the world. Palpatine needed to reevaluate his plan and change it if needed be but he knew he didn't have much time left. The Clone Wars could not drag out forever and he could only stay in power for so long before the senate would elect another Chancellor no matter how much the senate liked him; that was a part of democracy.

The door to his office hissed opened as the metal doors drew back into the walls. Palpatine felt them approach long before they even entered the senate building but he had certainty not expect to find the entire Jedi Council walk into the room.

Palpatine turned around and looked at the Jedi Council "Good afternoon, what may I do for you?" he asked. Mace Windu ignited his lightsaber "In the name of the Galactic Senate and the Republic you are under arrest Chancellor" he said. Several more snap and humming sounds were heard as the other Jedi Masters ignited their own sabers.

"Under what charges?" Palpatine asked calmly but inside he was seething 'how had this happened' he thought. "You know the charges…Darth Sidious" Anakin said stepping into the view of his so called 'friend'. Palpatine turned and looked at him "Surely you don't believe that do you Anakin, me a Sith Lord?" the elder man replied.

"My eyes have been opened you are a Sith" Anakin replied tightening his grip on the hilt of his saber. Sidious growled "So that may be but have I not been there for you when the Jedi have not?" Sidious asked.

"You were only using Anakin, you wanted him to turn to the darkside, you wanting him as a apprentice" Ahsoka said standing next to Anakin and ignited her two blades. Sidious looked down at the girl, 'so she had decided to come back to the order after all, but how did they figure it out that I was the mastermind behind all of this' Sidious thought.

From the folds of Sidious was hidden his own saber and with a flicker of his wrist it sprung into his hand and the crimson blade sprang to life. "You can not possible stand against all of us" Mace Windu said taking a step forward. A smile cracked across Sidious face "Perhaps not alone that is" he said reaching over and hitting a button on his desk.

"Execute order 66" Sidious said to the image of a clone that appeared from the desk. Moments later the Senate building filled with clones blasting away at the Jedi Council who had quickly made there was out of Sidious's office to engage them.

Sidious was furiously dueling Anakin, Ahsoka while the Council held off the clones. Sidious being a master off all the saber forms was holding his own against the Chosen One and his apprentice. "How did you find out?" Sidious asked curiously as he hurled lightning at Anakin who blocked it with his saber.

Anakin pushed the lighting back with all of his might but it just kept coming and Ahsoka had to jump in to help push it back. Anakin glanced at Ahsoka as he had not even been told in great detail as how Ahsoka had been sent back in time.

"It turns out that the darkside works against you Sidious, I was sent back in time after a Sith Temple exploded and its power sent me back. I decided I would save Anakin from his dark future and expose you for who you truly are" Ahsoka said disengaging from the lightning and hurled herself at the Sith Lord.

Sidious stopped the lightning and parried Ahsoka's attacks, they were strong and full of righteous anger. Sidious was able to disarm her of her small shoto blade and then blast her with lightning sending her across the room.

Anakin was on Sidious in a second slashing from every possible angle he could with blinding speed and strength. Sidious was forced to redirect the Jedi's attacks as he could not block such powerful attacks from his much younger opponent.

"Anakin you can become the most powerful force user ever, all you have to do is join me" Sidious said jumping out of the way of another attack. "No, I will never join you" Anakin stated and continued hammering away at Sidious defensives. The two made there way down a long hall way and continued their vicious battle.

Ahsoka was just now able to stand up as her muscles burned in pain from the lightning. It took her a moment to steady herself she called her shoto to her and ran down the hall way. She came into another room and saw Anakin and Sidious fighting dangerously close to a window that the glass had been broken from.

Ahsoka watched as Sidioius brought his saber down and severed off Anakin's mechanical hand. Anakin staggered back and he watched his saber fall from the window. Anakin knew Ahsoka couldn't take on Sidious by herself and a single thought ran through his head. He was the Chosen one, the one too destroy the Sith and save the Jedi, he used the force and ripped Ahsoka's shoto from her hand and it landed in his left hand.

In a flash Anakin kicked Sidious in the chest then drove him out the window stabbing him in the chest with the blade of the shoto. Sidious howled in pain as he fell from the window but managed to grab a hold of Anakin pulling him off of the ledge with him.

Ahsoka's eyes widened as she watched Anakin be pulled out of the window, she ran to the window and looked over the ledge. Her hand immediately reached out and took a hold of Anakin's flesh hand in a tight hold. "I got ya" Ahsoka said holding on to him with both hands.
