Hey there writers around the world. I am excited about this story. I have also put up another one. Please go to Misc. Books and look for a story called Mythical. It is also under my profile. Please read and review it. I have a good feeling about that story also. Anyways, this chapter is good. I must give credit to my lil brother cuz he helped me with this story. But i did outsmart him one time. He knows a lot about Star Wars, but I proved something to him and at first he didn't believe me. MY brother is the master of star wars in my house and i outsmarted him.
Chapter 5
Darth Angelious's POV
My master is dead. I am now to follow his footsteps. That is what he would want me to do. But I can not act because the Jedi know that we are still out there and they could search for us. The best thing I can do now is go into hiding. And search for a new apprentice. I will avenge the death of my master. Anakin Skywalker will pay for what he said. But how could my master even think that about me? Saying that I am useless? Using me to do all the dirty work? I will prove that I am not useless. But I haven't the power of the Force. How can I be a true Sith Lord without the Force? I will have to fight the old-fashioned way. By using the lightsaber. It is the only way. I decided to go and hide on the planet of Alderaan. It would be easy to hide there since I once lived there. I could live my former life and stay hidden until I found an apprentice and the Jedi were not searching for me anymore. I climbed onto a shuttle and made my way to Alderaan. It was actually nice to be going back to my home planet. But what would I look for in an apprentice? A person who could use the Force, for one thing. Someone who has experienced some bad times, like me losing Lord Sidious. This just made me mad. An apprentice to train is a good thing. An apprentice to help me destroy Anakin Skywalker.
Luke's POV
Obi-Wan, Leia, and I were outside of a new, makeshift hideout, waiting the return of my parents. We were practicing defense. We were still in training. But every year, we were closer to becoming Jedis. This was a good thing. Obi-Wan heard a shuttle approaching and we knew it was our parents. Leia and I ran towards the front area of the hideout and saw our parents standing at the open door of the shuttle they were on. We started waving our arms wildly through the air. The shuttle landed and they climbed off. We ran to them and were so happy that our parents were finally home. "I missed you all so much."
"When are we going back to Coruscant?"
"Your mother and I actually came to retrieve Obi-Wan and you two so we can all return."
"Are we leaving now?"
"Yes we are. Go and board the shuttle."
"Race you there, Leia." I ran off and quickly gained a lead. Leia was not that far behind me. As I ran towards the shuttle, I heard my father thank Obi-Wan for watching Leia and me. It was no problem. Leia and I mostly just trained. And practiced our skills. We wanted to get to the Padawan stage of our training. But we had to be sixteen to reach Padawan training. And Leia and I were only seven years old. We still had a ways to go. At least Obi-Wan is a good trainer. I wanted to be his Padawan when I was old enough. The Republic needed new Jedi. And the younglings that train with Leia and I are perfect for that. We will be powerful Jedi one day. And if Sidious's apprentice tries to rise to power, more Jedi are going to be needed to keep Angelious from rising to power. "Hey Leia. Wait up." She had sped past me. She was also trying to tire me out by having me chase her around the shuttle. "Alright, I give up. You win."
"Ahhh. Success once again. Better luck next time there, Luke." Leia climbed aboard the shuttle and I followed her. "Luke, you look worn out. Did you fall for Leia's diversion today so she could win?"
"Yeah. She forced me to surrender."
"You do need to be careful. It does not look good for Anakin Skywalker to have his own son to be beat by his daughter."
"Sorry, dad. I will do better next time. Leia, you will pay for making me surrender." I was about to jump on her and start wrestling, but my father grabbed my arms and said, "Not now, Luke. Wrestle with her later." I sighed because I wanted to get back at Leia. But I would have a lightsaber duel with her when we got back to Coruscant.
Anakin's POV
Luke and Leia make me so proud. They will both be great Jedi one day. To tell you the truth, it makes me glad that I came back to being a Jedi. What would have happened if I was a Sith? Bad things. Very bad things. The Jedi would have been no more. Luckily Obi-Wan helped me realize my place, which was with the Jedi. And my family. Obi-Wan and I were in the back of the shuttle. "You know what Obi-Wan?"
"What?"
"You are like a father to me."
"Then why don't you listen to me?"(I do not own the line. George Lucas does)
I laughed. "You are."
"What brought this on? Are you feeling okay, Anakin? Do I need to 3PO in here? A medical droid?"
"No. I don't need any help. I was thinking about what would happen if I became a Sith. And then how I came back to the Jedi."
"Ahhh. You want to know something."
"Yeah. What is it Obi-Wan?"
"Before we moved to Naboo to protect your family from Sidious, Yoda told me that Darth Angelious will become very powerful."
"I know he will. He must be angry after what I told him to end the fight."
"What exactly happened the day Sidious had Padme?"
"He used her to get me to the prison block. Then, Darth Angelious and I engaged in battle while Lord Sidious tried to 1) convince to come back to the Dark Side and 2) make his escape so he could become an emperor again. I told Padme to send out the evacuation order so I could get everyone to safety. Darth Angelious and I continued to fight. I just wanted the battle to end. So I told him that all Sidious needed him was to do the dirty work. Sidious really wanted me back."
"Then what happened?"
"Angelious was stunned at what Sidious said, so I ended the battle. He ran off and has gone into hiding. Then I went to talk to the Council. Then, a Clone trooper came in and led me to where they found Sidious's ship, which had crashed. Sidious was dead."
"Oh. So, Angelious is in hiding at the moment?"
"Yes. He is in hiding because of the Sith attempt at leadership again. He knows that it is too dangerous for him to not be in hiding with the Jedi on high alert now."
"Master Anakin." It was 3PO. "Yes, 3PO? What is it?"
"Mistress Padme told me to tell you that we are about to land on Coruscant. You should prepare to exit."
"Thank you, 3PO. Obi-Wan, if you don't mind, I would like to go and join my family."
"Go ahead. They will want to be with you since we haven't been here in a while." I started to walk away and Obi-Wan called for me again. "Anakin?"
"Yes, Master?" I haven't called him that in so long.
"Thanks. For everything. For letting me live with you. For letting me train you children."
I stood there. "You're welcome." With that, I walked away to join my family. As the shuttle landed, the door to the shuttle began to open, revealing our home of Coruscant. It actually felt good to be back and not have to go out on any missions. Luke and Leia ran off as soon as the door was opened all the way. Obi-Wan went after them to make sure they did not get into trouble. Kids. Padme and I followed at last. We were met by Master Yoda. He must've wanted to talk to me. "Padme, go on ahead. I will be right there." She made her way to the air speeder, where Obi-Wan was trying to break up a squabble between Luke and Leia. Poor Obi-Wan. "Yes Master Yoda?"
"Talk to the Council you must." I followed him and we made our way up to the Council room. Yoda sat down in his little chair. "You wanted to see me?"
"Yes. We have great news for you."
"What is the great news?"
"You have shown great leadership and strength when it came to fighting Lord Sidious. You have also shown great responsibility. And along with great responsibility, comes great rewards."
"Rewards?"
"Yes. The Council has discussed this together and we have decided that it is time for you to receive a Padawan."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Well, who is my Padawan to be?"
Yes. Anakin is going to get a Padawan. But I need to think of who that will be.
