Ghostly talking
Speech
Thought
Last time:
"It is too late for me, son." Vader said. "The Emperor will show you two the true nature of the Force. He is your master now." Vader said, as two storm troopers appear for them.
"Then my father is truly dead." Luke said.
Vader looked at his old apprentice and son sadly, as the troopers lead them to the holding cells where they would wait until they were ready to depart in the morning. He knew that one or both of them would be killed by his master or the other, since there can only be two. One the master and one the apprentice. He leaned over the railing and just had to wonder, 'Am I doing the right thing?'
Luke and Ahsoka were transported to the 'incomplete' Death Star.
Vader lead his old Padawan and his son to meet his master and Emperor. The two can only look at him with disgust.
The three walk up the stairs towards a rotating chair.
The chair turns, and the deformed, yellow-eyed, hooded figure spoke.
"Welcome, young Skywalker and Tano. I have been expecting you. You'll no longer need those." He said using the Force to release them from their handcuffs, freeing their wrists. "Guards, leave us." The men in the red uniforms did as their superior told them to. "I'm looking forward to completing both of your training. In time, one of you will call me 'master'."
"You're gravely mistaken." Luke said. "You won't convert us as you did my father."
"Oh, no, my young Jedi." He started to walk towards them, "You will find that it is you who are mistaken… about a great many things."
Vader then spoke. "Their light sabers." He gave his master the two prisoner's weapons.
"Ah, yes. A Jedi's weapon. Much like your father's and her master's. By now you must know that he can never be turned from the dark side. So will it be with you both."
"You're wrong. Soon we'll be dead and you with us." Ahsoka said.
Palatine only laughs at this, "Perhaps you refer to the imminent attack of your rebel fleet? Yes. I assure you…we are quite safe from your friends here."
"Your overconfidence is your weakness." Luke said.
"Your faith in you friends is yours." Palatine said walking to his chair.
"It is pointless to resist, my son and apprentice." Vader said, knowing full well only one of them would join the Dark and live.
"Everything that has transpired has done so according to my design. Your friends up there on the sanctuary moon are walking into a trap, as is your rebel fleet. It was I who allowed the Alliance to know the location of the shield generator. It is quite safe from your pitiful little band. An entire legion of my best troops awaits them. Oh…I'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arrive." The Sith lord said smiling.
"Come on you two. See for yourselves." Palatine said, as the two young rebels waited for the larger empire ship attack the weaker rebel fleet, "From here, you will witness the final destruction of the Alliance and the end of your insignificant rebellion." He said walking to the same window as Luke and Ahsoka.
The two look at their light sabers sitting on the arm of the Emperors chair. "You want this…don't you?" The Emperor said. "The hate is swelling in you now. Take your Jedi weapons. Use them. I am unarmed. Strike me down with it. Give in to your anger. With each passing moment you make yourself more my servant." Vader look at his master and the two Jedis.
"No." Luke said.
"It is unavoidable. It is your destiny. You, like your father and master…are now…mine." The dark lord said.
As the battle appeared in front of Luke and Ahsoka eyes, the Emperor spoke, "As you can see, my young apprentices your friends have failed. Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station. Fire at will, Commander." They saw one of the stronger rebel ships be easily destroy by the Death Star might. Another major rebel ship destroyed.
"Your fleet is lost and your friends on the Endor moon will not survive. There is no escape my young apprentice." Palatine said, as the two look at their respective father/father-figure. "The Alliance will die...as will your friends. Good. I can feel your anger. I am defenseless. Take your weapons. Strike me down with all of your hatred and your journey towards the dark side will be complete!" He said as they look towards their lightsabers the image of them slicing the Emperor up becoming more vivid with every single word.
They both used the Force to grab their respective lightsaber. They both try to strike at him, only to be stop by Vader's lightsaber, much to the Emperor amusement.
Ahsoka and Luke were striking against Vader. Every time Vader tried to defend himself a blow from either Luke or Ahsoka came at him. "Good." The emperor said. "Use your aggressive feelings, young Jedis. Let the hate flow through you." They both deactived their lightsabers.
"Obi-Wan has taught you well." Vader said slowly walking towards them.
"Neither of us will fight you, master." Ahsoka said.
The two back away as the black clad cyborg, "You are unwise to lower your defenses." He said, attacking the two, as they reactived their lightsabers and defended themselves. They moved their light sabers, clashing against Vader. The two young Jedis tried to defend themselves from his light saber. Vader tried to strike their legs but they jumped over to a control panel. They jump again trying to get some space between them and him. "Your thoughts betray you, Father. I feel the good in you, the conflict."
"There is no conflict." Vader said.
"You couldn't bring yourself to kill either of us before, and I don't believe you'll destroy us now." Luke said.
"You underestimate the power of the Dark Side. If you will not fight then you will meet your destiny." Vader said throwing his crimson lightsabers at both of them like a boomerang, which they both dodge, the saber slicing the catwalk they were standing on and causing it to fall. The Emperor got out of his seat to get a better view and smile.
Vader walk towards the two down heroes. "Good. Good." Vader master said.
Luke and Ahsoka went into hiding, as Vader look for them. "You cannot hide forever, Luke, Ahsoka."
Ahsoka said, "I will not fight you."
"Give yourself to the Dark Side. It is the only way you can save your friends. Yes. Your thoughts betray you." Vader said, copying the line Luke said earlier. "Your feelings for them are strong especially for…sister. So…you have a twin sister, Luke. Your feelings have now betrayed her, too. Obi-Wan was wise to hide her from me." The more Vader talk the more Luke and Ahsoka eyes turn yellows, the eyes of the Sith. "Now his failure is complete. If neither you nor Ahsoka will join to the Dark Side then perhaps she will."
"NEVER!" Luke yelled, arming himself, Ahsoka following him, they attacked Vader. Every time Vader moved his lightsaber it clash with his son or the Togruta Jedi. They were just whaling on the Sith lord. They were pushing him towards a wall. They had him against a railing, laying blow after blow against the former Jedi. Luke then cut off Vader's hand causing the red lightsaber to fall away. They held him back with their lightsabers. The Emperor walks down laugh in pure glee. "Good!" The two relished what they done, "Your hate has made you powerful. Now…fulfill your destiny…and kill take Vader place at my side." He said making it clear who ever kill Vader would becomes his apprentice. Luke look at his hand, while Ahsoka look at her former master, noting that both Luke and Vader lost their hands.
They both lowered their light sabers, "Never." Ahsoka said as they threw their lightsabers away.
"We'll never turn to the dark side. You've failed. Your Highness. We are Jedi like my father before me." Luke said.
This surprise the dark lord, "So be it…Jedi. If you will not be turned…you will be destroyed." He using the force lightning against them.
Ahsoka shrieked, "WHY DID WE THROW OUR LIGHTSABERS TO THE SIDES?"*
Vader got up after they were knocked back. "Young fool. Only now, at the end do you understand." He said using the force lightning against them again electrocuting both of them. "Your feeble skills are no match for the power of the dark side." He side getting closing to both of them. "You have paid the price for your lack of vision." Palatine said as Vader walk right next to him. The two yell in pain. "Father/Mater, please!" They said to Vader. The lightning jumping off their bodies. Vader look down at the two people that were his legacy. "Now, young Jedis…you will die." he said with a smile. As The Emperor sent his most powerful blast against them, the pair yelled in agony. Vader looked towards his master, then to the two Jedi, back to his master, and then back to the pair, before lunging towards Palpatine, grabbing him under his arms and lifting him up over his head, absorbing a lot of Force lightning damaging his suit. Ahsoka and Luke looked up to see Vaders actions. Anakin Skywalker threw his evil master over the railing to die, causing a powerful explosion. Anakin was breathing heavily as he slumped to the ground, he was dying. They rolled him over onto his back, hoping they could save him.
"Father?" Luke asked.
"Master?" Ahsoka asked.
Vader's hissing and wheezing was his only response. It was weak.
The two of them carried Vader to a shuttle craft in one of the hangers. Explosions and quakes rocked the station, causing the crew to retreat like cowards.
"Luke, Ahsoka. Help me take this mask off." Anakin said.
"But you'll die." Luke said.
"Nothing can stop that now. Just for once… let me look on the two of you with my own eyes." Vader said, as the two of them slowly took off his mask. They saw his burnt face. He smiles at the two of them, "Now go, my son, and padawan. Leave me."
"No. You're coming with me. I will not leave you here. I've got to save you." Ahsoka said to her once master.
"You already have. You were right. You were right about me." Vader wheezed.
"I'm gonna find a medical kit." Ahsoka said as she raced into the shuttle.
"Tell your sister Luke…you were right."
"Father." Luke said as Ahsoka raced back out with a medical kit.
"Master." Ahsoka said.
Anakin eyes shut one last time.
"I won't leave you." Luke said.
He died in front of them. They slowly remove their hands from his cold body.
Luke and Ahsoka lifted his corpse up and into the shuttle and quickly lifted off, out of the hanger of the Death Star. Watching the Empire greatest weapon exploded, the pair flew to Endor.
As they flew to the planet, Ahsoka and Luke decided to talk.
"I am sure Leia did fine." She said to Luke.
"I know, I can feel her." Luke said.
"You love her?" Ahsoka asked.
"Yes." Luke said.
"All right. I understand." Ahsoka said. "Fine. When you go back to her…I won't get in the way."
Luke sighs, "It's not like that at all." he said, getting confused looks from the Togruta girl. "She's my sister."
Ahsoka looked shock, and bad at herself for not figuring it out sooner. She laughed to herself, before lunging towards Luke and pulling him into a kiss. They smile at each other.
(On Endor)
Luke and Ahsoka had built a wooden bed and laid Vader's body upon it. They cremated their fathers/masters body, the helmet and suit included. He and Ahsoka looked at the burnt remains of the evil lord.
Once the flames had completely consumed him, Luke and Ahsoka walked back to the party. All across the forest of Endor, dozens bonfires and groups celebrating was heard as the Ewoks and Rebel Alliance members celebrated their victory over the Empire. They arrived at the main Ewok village, where Han and Leia welcomed them back with open arms.
(Insert which song you like better here).
As everyone smiled, talked, dance and sang the night away, Luke and Ahsoka noticed the ghosts of Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan, and Yoda appear before them, smiling.
To be concluded…in the next and final chapter…

gunmanchapter 23 . Aug 5
I see you didn't use ALL of my editing suggestions, which kinda makes this chapter a little flawed in some places.
I still see this as a better chapter than the last one. Still missing some important elements, and could have easily been elaborated on for the sake of the story. To either make it better or different.
And it is different with Ahsoka added to the group.
Just think about it.
Write on.
Sorry, and honestly I forgot why I didn't use your suggestion I think it have something to do with you editing dialoged, which I try to keep that same as the movie. I'll try used more of your suggestion in this chapter. Yeah I try to do my best and I believe we get better every time. I try to keep all important elements in maybe one day I will rewrite it, and I will try to elaborate as much as I can. Yeah I try to be as good as possible and unique. That a good thing right. I'll think about it.
Can do.

Well...um I dont quite understand it. The plot is easy enough to understand but I really dont get the shifting POV and constant use of bold print to tell us where what is happening. But Ill still read on and leave another review later.
It Ok that was only the second chapter and I was still seeing what writing style. Yeah I try to pride myself on plot, yeah the POV thing is something I used to do I did slowly learn how to be better and stop that, yeah I not to used bold unless for authors notes, titles and reviews and comments. Yeah, feel free to do it.

I think a couple of lines here got 'confused', otherwise this was a nice little confrontation between Vader and his two 'children'.
It could have been longer, added more dialogue, but then again this is your story.
Look forward to more later on.
And just a side-note here, you don't have to add so much 'review notes' and 'authors note' at the start of this.
Just a thought.
Good work here.
Write on.
Glad you like the conversation between the two of them. Yeah this is probably close to a cannon reaction.
I guess I try to make it longer and have more dialoged (As much as I can). Yeah I try to make the reviews complements and author notes short as possible.

Don't kill Ahsoka; please.
If I kill her I wouldn't have much of a story would I? Don't worry as long as she has her used to me and she will live.
