Disclaimers: Star-Wars or Stargate SG-1 are not owned by me. The story belongs to me everything else belongs to the George Lucas and MGM studios.

Warnings: This Portion of the Story covers the a few bits of the Final Showdown and the re-write of the story. As he immediately tells the adult quartet and their mentors and reports them. But from here the differences between Anakin and Ferus are made clear, before it returns to his dealing with Jacen now.

The Conversations between them in my other story are going to be part of this from here on in. So first this and then The Uncertain Path as Anakin shows that to combine both sides of him together makes him ten times stronger. And even more then even they expected as to the both groups finally in their eyes.

They got to keep his powers of of Sidious's hands from that day forward just to prevent a repeat then as this starts off slowly. As Anakin also tells them the story of how he created his first lightsaber with it at the time now...

Chapter 57: Jedi Quests And Young Jedi Knights XIV: The Final Showdown IV

"That pretty much says it all right now we know you better then you know yourself right now, to know. That you would bever lie about something this serious at the moment, young man he was correct: the idea in the test was to trust your partner. And trust in the force, but it was very clear to him you never learned anything. And about the greater Jedi goal, you never learned anything, so his opinion, in your words was correct."

"You are just like Galen, again and again he resisted the barbs thrown at him and right now, I want to hear that conversation between you. And there is no use debating this, Anakin was the better of the two of you at the time. But he at least never tried to show off and if we, your parental mentors, were there. We would do this the way Obi-wan and the trio did at the time." Adi said sternly and the adult trio nodded in agreement then.

"With you separated for 10 years we can allow this, just try to stay focused like you did when you married Padme, same as before." Adi added and he nodded to the request. "Though what I will say is if this was the other reason he turned into your rival, I want the truth right now you two, because if this was when she admitted. In how she feels about you, I need the entire story." Damon finished and the duo nodded in agreement.

"And Ferus, no use debating this, this time you're doing that conversation in front of us, and no ifs, and or buts about it. It's being done in front of me, the council and Masters Qui-Gon, Tiana and Damon, understand." Adi said sharply and he swallowed hard at that. "Agreed, at the moment with me here as his Jedi parent, he's afraid of us over hearing this, but he was viewing range of our padawans when he said it in their timeline now."

"At the rate this is going I wish I was still here to head off that fight, before she decided to deal with it at the moment. But you're right, that was uncalled for at the moment, to him that's a warning, to you it's a threat and to us, as your mentors and the council. That's what we consider training interference at the moment, but to know what was said. It's hearing it spoken in front of us this time, but first things first right now, boys, honey."

"Before we do that, let me and Obi-wan discuss the point of the lesson with him, as we see what he's learned now. But instead of Obi-wan saying it, I will now, as this is as close to our situation with Obi-wan and Siri. Just after being in the middle of a situation similar to ours on Kegan, Adi." Qui-Gon said and she nodded to to him. "Alright let's do that then, we put both situations together, and then push it forward, now, so go ahead Qui."

"He's the youngest of your trio, you do the honors of that as you're also a council member, like I am." she said and he nodded to her then as he looked at Anakin as he was standing patiently there with him and Obi-wan and hid a smile as he looked at him gently. "I am proud of you, not only did you act bravely, you worked well with the other padawans, I heard how you all collaborated on the final plan to rescue us."

"You have learned a valuable Jedi lesson, you submitted your will to listen to others, as a result you gained strength." he said and Anakin nodded as he answered him. "I was ready to rush after you to fight the droids, it was Ferus who stopped me, he was right." he said and Qui-Gon nodded as he sighed. "Slight case of luck in that too, but he was right." he told him and Qui-Gon nodded to that as he answered him gently at the remark.

"I understand that, but at times it's luck, and others it's the force, so am I right: do you feel you learned the Jedi lesson of submission of will. Do you understand the importance of the lesson?" he asked and Anakin nodded as he answered him smiling. "Yes I have learned the lesson well." he said and Qui-Gon nodded proudly and in satisfaction, as he pretended to move away from him then as Ferus said it quietly at that remark.

"It's not the Jedi way to lie to your master." he said and Anakin looked at him. "And neither is eaves dropping and I did not lie." he told him and Ferus countered that. "You did not tell the truth, you did not truly learn the Jedi lesson. You didn't learn anything, you are like Galen." he said and Anakin said it sternly. "That isn't so, and it is not your business, it is my master's business what I learn." he said to him in response to that.

"Qui-Gon and Obi-wan do not see you clearly, they are a great Jedi knight and master, but they're blinded by their affection. But I see and I will keep on looking, I will watch you Anakin Skywalker." he said as he turned away from him and Qui-Gon crossed his arms as Obi-wan nodded to that. "I will watch you too Ferus Olin, and if there is a battle between us, I will win." Anakin said, as he did this aloud and mentally to them.

Watching this, they watched as Darra crossed her arms at that, her eyes narrowing in concerned anger as she looked at him sternly at that remark. 'I don't believe this right now, Anakin grew up outside the temple, but I see it in his eyes. No you're provoking him into a fight right now, if he has anything in common with me. It's that we, if we were normal, are beyond close, and this is the first test to it.'

'I don't believe this, Ferus did you expect to get away with that right now, our mentors may not have confronted you, but they're going to notice this.' Darra said as she moved to him and touched his shoulder and he looked at her then. "Shh, it's okay, just calm down." she said and pressed her forehead to Anakin's and the trio's eyes narrowed at that response as he closed his eyes, as they felt his anger leave him then.

Watching him with her, Obi-wan crossed his arms at that. "What do you think that was about?" Siri asked and he sighed. "Whatever was said, before she moved to him, I'm not sure, but she seems to be good for him right now, but the last time I saw him. And like this was during Krayne, but whatever caused this, I'm paying close attention to it. And to things between the boys now at the moment, but it's clear to me he's acting like he did."

"When he was a child, and in truth, I was worried, but it's clear to me how good she is for him, that's all I wanted for him, to have a friend. But if this becomes more, we got to watch things between them and them and Ferus for a while. Especially if this turns into a rivalry between them over her, at this stage in his life, he's experiencing first loves now. And though separated from the queen, that's not preventing his first teenage crush."

"He grew up a non force sensitive and that entitles everything that came with it." he said and they nodded. "That's just terrific, and my baby sister happens to be the possible one he's attracted to." Soara said with a bemused smile on her face as they watched them as she watched him look into her eyes. 'There we go, Anakin don't let him get to you, that remark was uncalled for right now, sure you grew up on the outside.'

'But that only makes you more perfect in my eyes, but look at it like this right now, everything you have that he doesn't was because you learned it. And by growing up a non force sensitive, sure the code forbids attachments and possessions. But it doesn't for compassion, friendship and at times falling in love, but you show everything I would want if we were normal at the moment.'

'Caring, understanding, smart, brave, loyal, the only clear flaw in you is your temper, but that's what I want to see. A few flaws in the guy I like if I was normal, flaws that make it more clear that he is not perfect. But he is for me, either as a best friend or more then that at the moment, but you did it. You're not perfect, but then, I wouldn't want you to be, but you are for me, Anakin.'

'But what do you have and show that he doesn't, that's pretty clear but it's the fact you show humility, compassion, understanding. The fact you grew up a pauper, you never lived in that type of luxary, the code itself. You lived by the code even before you became a Jedi, but you took down a dangerous man. Just to save billions of lives, just like you, you offered charity to those in need.'

'Humility at the fact you won your first race, and though a slight flash a temper regarding your friend's older brother that was it. Patience and showing mercy to your rival in racing, that's the difference, you show every value. That he shows a sin for Anakin, that's why he never got anywhere with me. As to why it's because he's beyond arrogant, sure top of his class and best at everything.'

'That he does, but that doesn't count for much where values are concerned, it doesn't matter what he says, you're a good man, and a good friend. I wouldn't want you to change, just be yourself, okay.' Darra said and he nodded as she pressed her forehead to his. 'Darra you're my sister, you and I both know he lied, so what's the call now exactly?' he asked her and she smiled sternly at that question.

'If he's making threats like this, well then it's a simple warning to him now, but sooner or later he's going to slip up when in the rules and the code. And when he does now, his career is ours after that, Anakin, we both know. You knew more and you learned the lesson thoroughly today at the moment. You told the truth and I heard the sincerity in your voice, I'm also living force, I'm like you.'

'He's unifying force, and we have as much to learn about the unifying force as he does about the living force, not our fault, we're just Padawans right now. But we still have much to learn in controlling our powers at the moment. And where it concerns things in the opposite side of the force, but if our parental mentors were around, they over heard that and he's toast for training interference.'

"Which I think was the point when Master Qui-Gon told the council that, regarding Obi-wan, but he has much to learn from the living force still. But he is very capable, Obi-wan fixed that flaw in himself, but Ferus hasn't yet. And until he does he's never going to graduate to the trials at the moment here. We both have much to learn still, in regarding the unifying force at the moment.'

'I'm the youngest of the four of us, like I said I just started, but here's the truth in why he was put together with us. With Siri back, he just recently activated in the last six months, the mission that Obi-wan and Siri went on 17 years ago. That was the punchline and he failed the test though you passed it at the moment, he lied to her saying he learned the value of this test, and he didn't.'

'In truth he didn't learn anything at all, so he's just like Galen, you proved you learned the point of this by capitulating to me and Tru, you did learn the value. But he has not and he's not going to see it coming if he breaks the code as he gets older, for now we just bide our time. As he sticks to his high horse, as the second he slips up, his career is ours.' she said and he nodded to her at that gently.

"Then we do that then, we wait and bide our time until he slips up as I turn him into them, but if you're the person that gets killed. And it's because of his arrogance and breaking the rules, I'm making sure he gets expelled for that. And if Tru joined with him, that cuts our quartet in half forever if you get hurt, because of them, but you and me now, I'm just saying this at the moment here.'

'But you are my entire world now Darra, my best friend and my sister, if I had a wolf like heart, you carry two pieces of that imprint. But you're my entire world now, love you sis.' he said said and she smiled as she pressed her forehead to his a second time as they closed their eyes and fused their link then. Listening to this and watching them together, Soara and Obi-wan hid a smile at that response then gently.

'Was I like anyone on your home planet in the way you responded to me like that?' she asked and he nodded. 'Yes, it was my friend Amee, she did this when my racing rival. He tried to provoke me into a fight, acting as the buffer to my temper.' he said and she smiled. 'Well that helps nicely, looks like I'm a Jedi version of her, so you got me to help you control it, but this just goes to show.'

'It's just one thing, said thing is I know you better then you know yourself, we have an empathic bond between us. But that flaw I can easily manage with so you can control it, but yes you grew up outside of the temple. That just proves you still carry many of the qualities the good ones from your childhood.' she said and as she went further at that as he looked into her eyes smiling then gently at her.

Stroking her hand against the hair at the back his head, she pressed her forehead to his. 'You living outside the temple, who knows more about the living force, the way the world works, even about women. Because if he wanted a chance with me, he just wrecked it by that threat he made to you. You know more then he does about life as a non force sensitive, you lived it, but I love you too Anakin.'

'I love you too, my brother, from now on every mission we have together, if we go over our plans, all we need now is timing and luck.' she said and Nield, Obi-wan and Cerasi smiled at that remark remembering them saying that as he answered her with a smile on his face. 'Why need luck, as long as we stick together we'll make it and we'll be alright, because we have each others backs now, starting now.'

'But as long as we have each other, we'll be okay, stronger together.' he said and she nodded. 'Stronger together, always.' she said and he smiled as she gripped his hand. 'Anakin I understand, but never mind that, it's not who you are, but how you use it that makes a difference. But I don't see your title, I just see you now, to me, you're just Anakin, my best friend, we're 13 1/2, if you had the chance.'

'You're at the age where you start falling in love, but if you had imprinted on me and it's done, our bonds, you're the only man in my life now, I promise you that. He was trying to show off to me, but you never did that at the moment, you don't have to show off, just be yourself, all I see is you, my best friend.' she said and they saw his eyes go tender at that as she pressed her forehead to his then.

'How your father figure takes this is anyone's guess honey, but what I can say is if it wasn't for the fact we were Jedi and this was against the code. We'd have been together from the time we were this age and all the way up to our adulthood. You would be the one I courted and married and my name would be your's after that.' he said smiling and she smiled at him as she answered him then.

'I know, but for now, as we are this age, you're the only man in my life, that I see, him, he's just a friend, you're it and you always will be now. You're not perfect and I wouldn't want you to be, but you are for me, you have a few flaws, but that's okay. They just make you more perfect in my eyes, you're my everything, always.' she said and he nodded as she gave him a hug at that to end it.

Holding her, he felt something change in him and he closed his eyes. 'Force I missed this kind of contact with friends, if I was normal, she was more than my friend. We're still too young for that, another year or two in the eyes of our brothers and sisters, our Jedi parents, Jedi maybe. But still a teenage boy, she's my world, my world, not losing her, not letting go.' he thought softly to himself then.

As he buried his head into her shoulder, watching them together, Obi-wan and Soara smiled gently as Obi-wan looked at her at that. "I think we better keep an eye on this right now, he grew up a non force sensitive life. But if this is headed where I think, I think my little brother just imprinted finally and on your baby sister now, Soara." he said and she nodded smiling gently as she answered him smiling at that remark.

"If anything, they remind me of you and Siri when we were their age after you set aside the rivalries now, but yes you're right. Best to keep an eye on that, but if your Jedi father was still around, I'd think he'd want to keep an eye on this anyway. As they get older, but at this stage in their life, then it's too soon to tell, she's everything to him. But to you and me, that's plain to see, for now at the moment, look at him, going on 14, her too."

"She's the only girl his age in his life right now, he's the only boy for her, that's plain to see, but I'm happy they got each other Obi-wan." she said and he smiled and nodded. "I think he misses the physical contant one gets from close friends, if they're a girl, Obi-wan. He's lonely with being separated from whoever his female friends at home were." Siri told him and he nodded in agreement to her thoughts as he looked between them.

"Yes I agree with you right now on that at the moment, I know of his life on Tatooine, but if he's like this with her, he's seeing and remembering being with that girl. In truth this is all I wanted for him, but to have friends and it looks he got more then that with her, but as his big brother. My right to be concerned, I'm just relieved he's not alone now." he said and she nodded to him smiling then, before they heard a shocked remark.

'No it can't be, she chose him, what does he have that I don't, exactly?!' the council and the quartet heard in shock and they all looked at Ferus at that remark and he paled and as Anakin lifted his head at that sternly. 'She over heard the remark you gave me and you blew your chances here at the moment with her. But to a girl they don't want a show off, or a man that is too good to be true.'

"As a result she made her choice, she looks at you and sees a conceited show off trying to show off to our mentors. She looks at me and she sees what she wants, though a few flaws, I fit just right to her. What she sees in me is the fact that though I'm good, I'm humble about my ways. I'm not arrogant, but she over heard that threat you gave me Ferus, and at the moment, here it is.'

'You call that a warning, we call it making threats and to our mentors and the council, even our parental mentors, they call it training interference. I was raised in the real world Ferus, I'm also living force as a result as is. To a girl, remarks like what you gave me, that loses points with them, they want a boy. That is holding a flaw or two, not too good to be true, but a good man now."

"Do you understand anything, anything about women, Ferus?" he asked and Darra crossed her arms as he swallowed hard at the look on her face. "You really don't understand the way the world works at the moment, but this is me. And before I joined the Jedi, I'm nearly 14 and if I was normal, like the queen. My mother and others, she would be the girl who was my new girlfriend back then.'

'If I had never left my planet and she was from there too, but this is what it means to be normal, having a chance to find love. And being everything to the girl you love, but this is your first lesson in being normal. But at times the girl you're in love with loves someone else and you got to accept that. But she's not having us fight over her and to her, remarks like what you said lose points.'

'But I don't make threats like this to my peers, but what I can say is what I say next is not a threat, but a promise to you, she's my entire world now. But you even understand the meaning of love and friendship, I grew up outside the temple. She's the first to see me as me and not by my title at the moment, I was a simple pauper growing up, but my back up skills would be enough too.'

'But answer this, what do you have to offer her if we were adults and not Jedi exactly, I do good things. And without asking for anything in return, but the Naboo leader paid it forward by freeing me with Obi-wan and Master Jinn. I give and give, but just once, maybe twice, I should be allowed to take, well. Right now, my heart belongs to her now, but mechanic and pilot at the moment.'

'If I was a non force sensitive, those skills would have me doing charters and repairs for anyone who needed them. And I have enough to raise my own family, but just because you're really good at something. It doesn't mean getting arrogant about it at the moment, as arrogance is a sin. And you let the sins dictate your life, they will destroy you in the end at the moment here.'

'Growing up, I offered charity, I was humble and I had patience, showed mercy, but I never lorded my skills at someone, but that remark you gave me a bit ago. It only demonstrates one thing Ferus, that your arrogance knows no bounds, so I suggest you get that under control and very quickly at the moment. And before it comes back to haunt you now.' he said with a stern tone to him at that.

Pulling her into his arms protectively, she leaned her head into his neck and Soara and Obi-wan exchanged looks at that response then. "If this was Siri and me, she wouldn't have moved into my arms like this right now, she's acting. And like she belongs to him right now, almost like she's his girlfriend Soara." he said and she nodded. "I'd call that the act of making it clear to Ferus, she belongs to Anakin, if we just heard that."

"He's in shock she chose Anakin, but Anakin grew up outside the temple, he knows a few things about women like you do, one of which here. Is that whatever he said to him is enough that to her, he is going to lose points with us for that remark. His slowly growing arrogance is another, but to her, she made her choice and Anakin is it. Ferus is just a friend, she belongs to Anakin, as his imprint now." she said as they and Siri heard it.

Looking up, Darra looked at him as well and she crossed her arms as she said it then. 'You know what, he's right Ferus, that attitude suggests your arrogance. Your envy, your greed and jealousy knows no bounds at the moment here. But I suggest you get that under control and fast, because you let those. Said those, the sins, dictate your life, it will destroy your life in the end, so be humble.'

'Try for humility Ferus and before you make a fatal mistake that destroys your life at the moment here.' she said and looked at Anakin and he gave a nod to her and they both looked at Ferus as he was in conversation with Tru then. And Ferus, looking back at them and the quartet saw he tried to keep from swallowing. And at the looks on their faces then as they said together, as they injected a stern tone into it then.

'Ferus, one of these days you're going to make a mistake and when that happens, I will be there to turn you both in. 'Darra is' 'I am' the youngest of us, in training, but that arrogance is against the code. So just wait, you quote the rules and code to us all the time and one day you slip up. And break the code yourself and you're our's when we turn this over to the council and the quartet.'

"The only who is arrogant here is you, 'I', 'he' capitulated to you again and again, and yet you never did the same with 'him' 'me'. Until we realized our masters lives were endanger, you only did it once with us, we did it repeatedly with you. And 'he', 'I' submitted to 'me', 'Darra' and Tru repeatedly, so the only one lying is you, and as Jedi, one mustn't lie to our masters or ourselves.'

'As that is not the Jedi way, and neither is eavesdropping, for a Jedi you started the latest of all of us. After Siri got back and it's clear why they paired you up with us, this was your test, we were just there for the ride. But just wait, one of these days you're going to slip off your high horse and when that happens. Your arrogance is going to destroy your life when you are that close to your trials.'

'But to be a Jedi is to follow the rules, be honest and never lie to ones master, but you lied to your own. You said you learned the value of this lesson and you didn't, so just wait for it. 'Darra' 'Anakin' and I are the ones that are watching you and when the time comes that mistake is going to come back to haunt you, I promise you.' he added sternly to that remark, as Darra added her voice to it too.

"Nice touch and you are correct, he doesn't really understand the mind of a woman to the point that threats like this, it loses points with us. We like our exact match to have a flaw or two in them, you spend most of your time around women. You know what we want in the way of a man and you're right, remarks like what he said. That loses points with us, a lot of points with us." Sola said in a stern tone as she crossed her arms at that.

"Issues in being a gentleman, mom taught me well, from etiquette to manners to morality as a result, I knew if you knew I was protecting your sister. You saw the true man I truly was if you saw the real me and you would see I was perfect match. But like Padme, Darra saw everything in me that made me who I am and I told him the truth. Now, that living force means understand the way of the world, and searching a mate."

"You have to understand the mind of a woman to know what they want and remarks like this lose points with you, or any girl at all. As does arrogance, he wants her to like him, change the attitude and act decent in the eyes of the girl you like. Or they won't pay you a second glance, but that was his first lesson in the living force and into the mind of a woman." he said and the group nodded to him gently at the news then sternly.

"Well that answers the question to what wasn't in the stories when it came to you, as this was being written at the time when Vader was the one in control of the situation. But this is you when the storyline cuts out and changes the sequence, it's made clear. He wasn't just your rival for the council position, he was your rival for her hand as a child. To young adult, before you and Padme got back together." Daniel said and they all nodded sternly.

"Well that answers the question in why Soara and I saw you talking like this together as she pressed her forehead to your's. She was the only who could calm you down and you were discussing this, before you both made that declaration to him at the time. Well you may have caught our attention, but we weren't sure what was wrong when you looked at him like that, you two." Obi-wan said and they nodded as Darra said for both of them.

"I locked gazes with Anakin and he nodded as we made this promise as I thought it together with him at the time." she said as she took his hand and she leaned into his chest and he wrapped his arms around her tightly in response at that. "It was after he said that, that we made that declaration together, he was going to slip up. And sooner or later, and when he does, I was turning him into you." he told them gently at that remark.

"If your thoughts were headed in that direction, and if my heart didn't belong to Padme already, we would have gotten together, but that's the jealousy right there in his case. He's had a crush on her for three years, but she never gave him the time of day, but she did for me, because she saw past my flaws, even my flaws in her eyes, like Padme. She saw passed them, but to her my flaws, made me more perfect for her in her eyes."

"But that was the point in her eyes now, she knew I was not perfect, but to her that didn't matter, she loved me as who I was, not for my title. But he was jealous and his jealousy and his pride, that destroyed him in the end, Ben, Soara, this was it for him. Because he was beyond arrogant and conceited at the time, everything she saw in me. And like Padme did, he didn't have, but that's when I made it clear to him then."

"He had to get his sins under control and before they destroy his life now and they did in the end. You knew all along that just because I'm the chosen one, doesn't mean I let my sins dictate my life, as growing up a non force sensitive, and a pauper. You remember this, we didn't have much to offer, but we let you stay with us for a couple days. And until I won the race and got the parts you needed to fix the ship at the moment, Jar Jar."

"I was patient and showing mercy with Sebulba and I was humble at winning my first race, all in all now. I gave charity, I was humble, I showed mercy and I was patient, but every virtue, I showed, he showed that sin, until his pride destroys him. And before the final showdown and I warned him that it could, but that's the way of it. When on Tatooine, some of us don't have much, but we offer what can for those in need there."

"But that explains the few visits there when you arrived, this year, I offered to let you stay with us for a couple days. And then when you met my family they immediately did the same thing as they protected her while I went looking for the grouping. The one that kidnapped mom, all in all, that's the catch here, the people you met so far, guys. They're all just like mom and me at the time." he said and the council all nodded to him gently.

"I get why in why us running into as close to farmers as possible, which you were, not just a farmer, but a mechanic as well. But sure we're not rich, we have to live carefully, but yes we're paupers and we don't have much, but we offer what we can. And to those in need, and learning your heart immediately brought you home to us. And us meeting who was possibly your future wife we decided to get involved as we protected her now."

"My brother, as a result, that day got us started, but I never expected to have your son living with me as I raised him for you, but he was like a son to me now. Then again, with you being my brother and during that incident when you came home that week. That's the change up, she knows who's we are and feels safe with us, as we're family, not strangers now this time." Owen said in response to that and he nodded in agreement.

"Not a problem now, I know this is what you do for a living, I can take it, so long as I get to see you all the time, we'll be okay. My brother, you know my past like you know mom's now, so we just pretend the grave is mom's twin, and she was living with Aunt Leia and Uncle Dave." he said and Owen nodded as he gripped his arm smiling, before Anakin gave him a hug and he tightened his arms around him, before Beru did the same thing.

"Well that's enough to lose points with us, did you really expect to get away with that, Ferus?" Mace said sharply to him and he swallowed hard at that. "Alright, now that we've see that, let's take it back to the rewrite of the final chapter to your story." Stass said and they nodded as the sextet nodded as they started a second time. "I knew I trusted you to do the right thing right now, but that just proved it to us now."

"But this crossed a line, and this is dangerous." Obi-wan said sternly to that news. "In other words, it's not the blasted power source or the aperture, it's the crystal has a flaw or crack in it." Soara, Siri and Darra said together and he nodded to the news. "The blast hit the lightsaber so hard that it caused the crystal to crack under the stress here at the moment, but think about it, guys."

"I'm with Obi-wan, so re-arrange that, what is he really saying, as my mentor is the one held in such high esteem by the council?" he said and they all crossed their arms as they exchanged looks at the remark then sternly as she said it then. "It says that to them, you're the council's pet you tell him, therefore you tell me, and through me, right to Adi." Siri said sternly and he nodded as he looked at Darra.

"Yeah exactly, so he comes to me, I tell you the repairs may not hold up and therefore, through you right to the council. As you send him home, and then the truth comes out, said truth a catch in implication. I knew the blasted thing was broken and didn't tell you." he said and they nodded as they looked at each other. "Never mind that, you told us immediately and through me, Siri and Ry'.

"And through us, directly to Adi, Damon and Tiana, and right to Mace. Mace and Adi and they're master guards, they're not going to like this." Soara said and he nodded as they hid a smile, as, watching them as Darra wrapped her arm around his back as he wrapped his around her shoulders and she left her head against his shoulder. The quartet exchanged gentle smiles to that response as he said it to her then.

"Darra, you remember our talk after he said that, I meant that, you are my entire world, I..., I pledge my life to you." he said and she smiled and pressed her forehead to his, as she wrapped her hand around his neck gently. "And mine to you, my Annie." she said and he smiled. "I never thought I'd hear that again, but you want to call me that, I'm fine with that, but you and me, we made it this far."

"Now, I always knew that as long as we stuck together we would be okay, because we were stronger together." he said softly and she pressed her forehead to his then. "You were my strength, you always were, as ourselves we are strong, but together. And we are unstoppable but that's because we are stronger together." she said and he nodded smiling as he answered her gently at that.

"We stick it out together, we'll be okay, stronger together." he said and she smiled. "Always, stronger together always, I pledge myself to you Anakin Skywalker." she said and he smiled. "And I you, Darra Thel Thanis." he said and the older duo nodded as they exchanged smiles at that as they exchanged a gentle remark. 'Oh no, I know what that means, like me it happened again, Tahl, oh Obi-wan.'

'It's me all over again, and the ones that got it taken out on them was the tribe that accidentally killed Shmi.' Qui-Gon thought as he said it out loud at that remark. "Obi-wan, Mace, Bant, do you recall my reaction after Tahl was kidnapped by Balog?" he asked and Obi-wan and Mace straightened at that. "It's you all over again?!" Mace repeated and he nodded to him and Obi-wan turned and looked at Ferus with a furious look then.

"Yes, she was a mixture of Tahl and Cerasi, and every batch of pain that we tried to suppress and barely missed taking out on our targets. Exploded onto a tribe of unsuspecting raiders that are the backlash of a choice that would never happened. If they did the responsible thing and came forward, before it went now and Darra took it for him." he said and Mace nodded with a furious look as the duo paled at that remark.

"Oh nice work you two, you foolish padawans, you just triggered what I forestalled in his case." Tahl snapped in fury at that remark and they swallowed hard. "Pretend everything was fine until mom is killed and dies in his arms and 9 months holding it in. It ends and results in four deaths coming together and destroys a tribe of raiders." Beru snapped in shock and the quintet nodded in shocked anger at the revelation then in disgusted shock.

"There is no forgiveness in my eyes for that, you finally caused him to brush the darkside, because two deaths come together as one. And kill a group of semi innocents, he's stuck living with the guilt for the rest of his life. And started this manic obsession in wanting the power to save everyone he loves at the time. It's not happening again for my son and I mean that, you little fools." Cliegg said with a stern growl and Mace nodded.

"Son?!" Tru squeaked in fear at his remark and they nodded sternly. "That's right young man, after we free the rest of his family now, I'm marrying her in a year. And I'm adopting him now, he and Owen are my golden children, they could do no wrong. When in my eyes, Luke and Han, his twin and Vader's twin same thing. But Vader was the black sheep of the Skywalker/Lars clan." he said crossing his arms and Mace nodded sternly.

"Alright keep it going from here right now, and then we go back to the next generation version to Melida/Daan, as we see the difference. As Anakin was waiting for us to come get him, he knew who he was, he knew his place. It was at my side, and the quartet's, his Jedi family, his true heart as a Jedi. That is where belongs now as as he has a family, cause and planet to fight for already." he said and the council nodded in agreement then.

'It's finally happened now." Soara said softly to Obi-wan and he nodded to her quietly. 'Yes it's finally happened, I think he's ready to move forward as he lets go of the past, we just have to make sure neither of them get hurt.' he said and she nodded in agreement. 'That his nickname, if she knew to use it?' she asked and he nodded as she looked at him gently and he nodded to that remark as he answered.

"Qui-Gon and Padme called him that when we met.' he told her and she nodded to him. Refocusing, they both turned to their mentors, who had knowing smiles on their faces at that and he blushed. "If your thoughts are headed in that direction then yes, 6 years had to change something and they did with us meeting at almost 14." he said and Obi-wan nodded as he tried to keep the smile off his face at that.

As he answered him. "I get why, but best to refocus, over what we felt in that cave." he said and Anakin nodded to that softly. "I just got the strongest jolt possible, when Master ordered me to check, but just as he came to check, whoever our mysterious Sith was, he threw me against the wall. I know that Sithlords are our speciality, but this character, Omega, now, is not a Sith."

"But Dark Jedi want to be and even worse after Melida/Daan, is this now, but here it is, he's the son of Xanatos. But I'm seeing a clear case repeater of what the heck happened here, after your destroying Xanatos finally. When you guys were 13 now finally, but with those words in mind, we got to work as one. But his lightsaber, why do I feel like this situation could result in a fatal injury."

"Especially if Omega is about to make contact with a Sith right now?" he asked and Soara sighed. "It's because if the lightsaber goes in the fight, whoever was holding it is exposed and could be shot. But this is why we tell you to tell us immediately if your lightsaber or damaged is broken." she said and he nodded as he looked between the quartet gently at her remark as he answered her.

"I don't know what the deal is, but what I heard was enough to tell me here at the moment at what I heard. Now that he wants to make the acceleration program, Darra, Ferus and I possibly made it. So he doesn't want to get left behind, Ry', Ferus said my thoughts out loud. But his performance at a chance into the program is not why we're here." he said and Ry nodded to the news sternly.

"And you're both right, I get we need more Jedi, but to ignore the safety of the team for this shot into it. That is considered irresponsible in our eyes and in the eyes of the trio. And the council and with those words in mind right now, you read me right. His performance is not the reason we're here, the safety of the team comes first, it always does." he said and Anakin nodded to him at that gently.

As he answered him at the remark. "Yes and you know me, why would I risk putting the team in danger just to get a chance to graduate early. Or just to prove he's not as noble as he says he is, just to get Tru in trouble now. And for not telling you sooner it was broken, why, why would I do that right now?" he asked and Soara answered that question at the time as he looked between them.

"You wouldn't, that's the point, with the fact you told us this soon, that lets you off the hook completely. But them, if they continue to not tell us and till after it breaks and completely and one of the three of you get hit by Omega's shot if it goes, or we do. It's getting them both dragged before the council right now, I don't give a damn in why they waited till now to tell us, it doesn't matter."

"what matters is the fact they risked the safety, or if the entire team and let this cloud their judgement right now, you did the right thing, and like always. You knew to tell us as your older brothers and sisters, but seriously right now, of you, you were the one that always told the truth. Even before you became a Jedi and you always did it, after you became one now, always the code for you."

"The pieces of the code there, if you re-arranged the wording, and in a padawan manner as you got it completely over the years. Is 'No lies, only the truth, no cheating, always being honest, no hostility, always being honest and good, and no deception to family, always the truth.'. That's the way of the apprentice, Annie, we, like you, were learning our way in the world of life as a Jedi.

"And like you, our mentors taught you everything through us, Annie, but of you, you passed our tests most of all, I'm proud of you." she said and he nodded as he hid a smile at her use of his nickname then as he said it. "You girls want to call me that, that's fine, Padme still does, and honestly at the moment. It's nothing has changed in me very much, Darra was right, five years, even ten years."

"I never changed at all right now, I never lied before so why start now at the moment, I'd tell you. And I would do it immediately and not wait till the last blasted minute when in the fight to do so right now. But that's why he didn't tell you sooner, he wants a crack at Omega and a chance. Just to get into the acceleration program right noe, we're 20 or goung on 20 this is the last one."

"That's what is driving him right now guys, but Ferus said he sees no reason to tell you now that he fixed it. But lightsabers 101, if you recharged the power cell, then you got to check the flux aperture as a result. Just to make sure the repairs hold up, but he needs to compensate for the power cell boost. Or it's going to short out, though I know the blasted thing will he never took it apart."

"And I mean completely to check the crystal, the stress from the explosion cause it to crack. You told me this time and time again, those lightsabers are our life, we have to take care of them. What am I going to do, they're going to see the fact I told you immediately as I turned on them now?" he said and Soara hugged him tight as he buried his face into her shoulder as she answered him then.

"If they have to learn the lesson, it's by the most painful way possible now, when you think everything is going fine and until your lightsaber goes on you. But either way you did the right thing by telling us immediately right now, Anakin. And I see you as a little brother, but the one to blame, if that does happen is them if it results now in the damn thing breaking down early."

"And if it's you or Darra getting hit and it does, and they're in trouble." she said and he nodded. "And we're not taking that chance at the moment, so we get a second go at them, but the safety of the team is at stake. So the mission is cancelled and we're going home right now, but first, we need to report to Adi. And the duo about it and what you told us." Siri said and he nodded in acceptance.

"I'm not losing your trust, not for them." he said and they nodded. "You made the right choice, by waiting for me after he threw you into the wall, whoever it was that did it. And this was also the right decision by telling us immediately that his lightsaber was broken. But if they continue to stall, and until one of you is hurt or worse, then we're dragging them before the council for this infraction."

"And how close it case to killing a member of the team right now, and you told us that truth immediately." Obi-wan said and he nodded to him gently at that. "If this if the first stage to my trials it's by choosing between duty to the truth. But that or duty to your friends, but you or them, there are no trials. It's you, my mother and the council and it will always be you, they can call me a traitor."

"And all they want, I don't care, but you matter more, you and my parents, I will not break your trust in me, not for them. You matter more to me, you always did, but it's they come forward now and they may get off easy. But they don't and they're getting expelled if one of us gets hurt here now. But they did this to themselves and all I had to was show up." he told him and Obi-wan nodded.

"We understand, Anakin, but that's the you I know for sure and you're right, to keep our bonds and trust the way they are. Then you had to tell us the truth, well that only makes it more clear here. Said is that you're a Jedi to the end, you can't lie to us and the council not for them. Let alone your mother anymore then yourself in something this serious, you never it before you became a Jedi."

"So why start now, I raised and trained you you since you were a youngling, I know you better then you know yourself." Obi-wan said and he nodded. "And that is why I will not let you down, you guys, mom and the council or the duo. No choice needed, I choose you, it's you and it will always be you, Master. One direction or another, I wish there was a way to simplify this at the moment."

"If I was in the military and part of the academy, and my friends, my squadron committed an, in your eyes, daredevil stunt that is beyond reckless. And said stunt kills a member of our squadron, and while I'm the lone member now. The one that knows he has to come forward to keep your trust and they don't want to come forward, because they don't want to be expelled for this now."

"And for not telling you sooner, but to them here, but to me, I lied to you once I am not doing it again, I will do whatever it takes to get your trust back. Even if it means turning in my former friends, if they try to claim you're lying. But you raised and been there for me when I needed you, so forget it. Forget it, I won't do it, your warning is being said to them through me, but I know these guys."

"They don't want to come forward, they don't have a problem with lying to you, our supervisors. But if I do, just resign my commission to the academy and walk away, but don't make them pay for my guilty conscious." he said and the quartet nodded. "Whoever between the duo says that, they just sealed their fate at the moment. Because the program was a test." Soara told him and he nodded to her.

As Obi-wan finished that remark sternly. "You just said everything we're thinking here, Anakin, you understand, yes he had many admirers, but no friends. Why it's because he trying to uphold the best Jedi padawan look until you arrived. And when you arrived things changed, you got what we wanted you to do, so say this, 'when you came out of the nursery we saw in you much potential.'."

"Everyone in the council and all over the temple, we were convinced you would be the best as a Jedi knight. And we never once doubted that conviction, until this moment.'." he said and as he looked into Ferus's eyes and he swallowed hard at that as he went further then his tone stern. "But a Jedi's first duty is a duty to the truth, be it scientifical ethical or responsible and it is the founding principle.'."

"In which the Jedi order, on which the Jedi code is based, now we're going to make this simple, Padawans. Now either you two come forward and tell us the truth that it's needing to be replaced. And until you fix what's wrong with it or you don't deserve to be a Jedi any longer.'." Mace and Adi said sternly and with Obi-wan at that and Anakin nodded to the orders from him then gently at that remark.

"No need to convince me twice, but I'm forwarding that warning to them through me, but at the moment, it's someone is going to get it for this once I take it. And right to flight instructor, so to speak." he said and Tolan nodded. "And said would be me right now and I appreciate that, but me as the flight instructor and Master as the said Admiral. With the rest of inquiry already being told ahead of us." he said and the seven nodded sternly.

"And just what want to hear from you I do, do the right thing and did the right thing, without convincing, by us. We know you, know you be a good boy and good padawan and do the right thing, like always you do. And very proud of you I am Anakin, took a lot of courage to be free of the peer pressure it did and never waivered you did. Earned right to the trials, you did." Yoda said and the council nodded as he sat there head held up high.

"And you earned the right to your position on the council and in five years after making level one. But you are a council member and Master in training, you know the rules and the new code, you served your planet and the republic well. And we, as the senate and Jedi council, are very proud of you." both groups said together and he nodded as he kept his position and seeing the way he held himself, and the humility in him then.

And the duo knew that they would never reach his stature. "Yes young man, we see everything you never show in the ways of being a Jedi. But growing up outside the old code was a severe benefit for him and his family now, finally. Will be the start of the first ever Jedi dynasty created since the creation of the Jedi order now." Mace said and and the council nodded in agreement as Anakin pretended to get ready to leave the room.
