Ha ha! Misty 1 and Darth Real Life 0!

This chapter is a bit late because Saturday Evening I took a shower and deviated from my routine. I did something stupid and unknown to me knocked my glasses to the other side of the room.

Because I couldn't find them I couldn't remember for sure what I had done with them. The glasses didn't turn up until Tuesday evening. After I had gone and saw an eye doctor for a new prescription and bought a pair. Go figure.

At least it forced me to get a new pair since I've had this pair for about two years..

Sidious frowned as he read the reports that said that a few million Ashlans had escaped the attack on Eras and had headed for parts unknown. He vowed to find those blasted Ashlans and wipe them off the face of the galaxy.

The Seers of Kadesh were nearly all but extinct and could be taken care of at any time.

The attempted assassination on Padme Amidala had failed. Instead a handmaid had been killed.

He had hoped to kill her while Anakin was on Eras but he must have somehow warned her to leave the Capital.

Either way, he'd find her.

However that would have to wait just a bit. It was time to fully take over the galaxy.

Obi-Wan alternated staring at the wall, his sleeve and Bail. It was still surreal that the Jedi were gone.

Bail had reported what he had seen. How a group of clones with markings that he didn't recognize had refused him entry into the Jedi Temple. As he was leaving they had opened fire on a young Jedi that at the oldest was a Padawan.

Obi-Wan had known when he had received news of the near destruction of the Kadesh that something sinister was on the move. The news of what had happened on Eras had just made him sure of it. Eras had never been a target during the War. Yes it had been threatened but fear of the Ashlans' rumored powers kept many away, including the Separatists.

The Sith had been behind the attacks just like they had been behind the whole War. They had destroyed those that posed the biggest threats to them before destroying the Jedi.

"Are there any other survivors?" He asked, turning to Yoda. "Know that I not for sure. Signal from Temple there is. Return to the Temple says it." Yoda said softly.

"They'll be killed if they do!" Obi-Wan blurted out.

"Stop it we must." Yoda commented. "But how?" Obi-Wan asked.

At that moment an officer entered the meeting room. "Excuse me sirs but the Senator's presence is demanded on Coruscant."

A slight smile came to Obi-Wan's face. This trip to Coruscant would be the perfect opportunity go to the Temple and reset the beacon and warn the survivors away.

Anakin's mind wouldn't stop reeling. He had failed to keep the Jedi alive. There were now only a handful of survivors.

He should have tried to see if it was a good decision to leave Coruscant. Now he had no idea which Jedi had survived.

If he hadn't been so selfish about wanting to do things on his own terms this wouldn't have happened.

The guilt was heavy and he could feel that if he went to face the Sith it would be over.

He sensed the priest that had helped him on the ship watching him with gentle eyes. "I bear no ill will towads you for what happened on Eras. The Sith destroyed our last home as well."

"Don't go to Inamreg, it could be your death if you do." Anakin said to the priest. "Warn everyone there to run. Scatter if they have to."

The priest nodded and hurried away to give the Circle of Elders of Inamreg what he had said.

A few minutes later the priest returned.

"They aren't too keen on leaving but seeing that the Sith might know about Inamreg it might be better safe than dead."

Anakin nodded in agreement.

"Where do you want us to take you?" the priest asked. "Tatooine is where I need to go." Anakin said softly.

Padme cried as she walked towards Anakin and hugged him tightly. She had been so afraid that she would never see him ever again.

She had seen the announcement that made the Republic an Empire. She had seen the news of the attack on Eras and of the destruction of the Jedi.

She had felt so lost until she remembered that she would know if Anakin had been killed.

She felt Anakin hold her gently in his arms.

"A time will come when things will be righted." He whispered.

Padme just cried.

Obi-Wan felt like a failure as he watched the security holos and saw Rook Nyss kill some of his fellow Jedi. He couldn't take his eyes off the holos. He didn't know Rook personally but he felt guilt for not pressing the issue of the mission and speak his mind about Rook going that mission.

The pieces fell into place when he saw the Sith that they had been tracking for so long appear and call Rook 'Atrocios' and then commanded him to bring peace to the Empire.

Palpatine – no Darth Sidious had been the one to suggest Rook for that mission. He had planned the whole thing.

"Destroy the Sith we must." Yoda informed him.

"We have no idea though where Rook is though." Obi-Wan pointed out. "Without the Sith Master fall the Sith might." Yoda said thoughtfully.

Obi-Wan just nodded mutely.

Bail Organa watched as the possible last two Jedi once again sat in one of the meeting rooms on his ship. Master Yoda had failed to defeat the Emperor in battle and Obi-Wan had failed to locate the Sith Apprentice.

He felt sorrow for them. To loose so much in such a short period of time and then have no idea what happened to so many others.

The pair was splitting up. Obi-Wan would be searching the Galaxy for surviving Jedi and maybe some potential future Jedi and Yoda would go to some planet and train the Jedi there.

Ahsoka could barely hold back the tears as she and the Ashlans fled Inamreg.

Rex had told them that he had transmitted the cordinances to the Sith before being ordered to kill her.

He said that he wished to spare her the pain of being hunted down, shot and then left to rot somewhere.

The Ashlans had executed Rex before they started packing. They couldn't risk him trying to kill her again or alerting the Sith to their new location.

She understood their fear but still it had hurt to see someone she had known for so long be killed.

Anakin smiled as he held his newborn son close to him.

It had been a hard labor but now both twins were here.

He smiled at the thought that Beru would soon deliver her and Owen's first child. Luke and Leia would have a playmate close to their age.

He vowed one day to destroy the Sith and put all those that the Sith had murdered to rest.

Okay, this is the last chapter that takes place during the PT. Next update will either be a bridge chapter or will be in the OT.
