Hello?... Anybody? I have a chapter, I propose a truce, can we make up...

.

.

Please?

Sorry about the wait, I lost inspiration and I just couldn't get in the mood to write but i am working on fixing that.

Also, really sorry about the choppy quality on the last chapter with all the POV changes, i tried to fix it in this chapter, hopefully it will be easier and more enjoyable to read.

On with the chapter!

Anakin POV

I couldn't believe it, yet for some reason it all made sense, the bewildered look when she saw us, the familiar force signature, the fighting style.

Suddenly, her agonising cry echoed in my ears and a grimace slowly overtook my features, I had brought this upon us, I had decided to battle her recklessly and without a thought driven my lightsaber through her chest.

Behind me, I heard a breathless gasp, briefly I turned around and spotted my Padawan staggering back onto the pile of debris, slipping and becoming buried again. Maybe that was for the best, at least she would be safe.

Time froze as I heard the crackle of electricity coming from behind me

I turned around slowly, dreading what I might find, but nothing would have prepared me for what I saw next. Darth Vader stood triumphantly above the fallen ex-jedi, his arms extended as lighting arched from his fingers, the power calling to me, begging me to take control and turn the tide of this fight. But I refrained, for now.

In slow motion, I watched as the rays of death raced towards Ahsoka, burning into my mind forever. A scream of pure agony resounded through the temple. A cold fury overtook me and as my vision tinted red I prepared to bolt towards her. As soon as that thought was formed, Vader raised his head and slowly, almost smugly he shook it. The message was clear, don't interfere.

Good thing I never had a problem with ignoring orders.

Vader POV

I watched with disdain as Anakin charged towards me, this really was too easy, A little taunt and he was gone. On the other hand, this would work in his favour, this Anakin does not know how to control his emotions and use them to fuel the dark side, he was powerful but sadly only had raw power when it came to the dark side. This way I would have no trouble in fighting using the force.

I knew that this would only make him angrier, for he would have never encountered an enemy he could not beat. But before that plan came to fruition I had to eliminate one of the remaining ties to my past, Obi Wan.

Another reminder was Fulcrum, sometime soon i knew I would have to eliminate her as well but for now, she was useful, after all she was one of the only people who knew where the old jedi master was and knowledge was power. He would also enjoy ripping that knowledge from her personally.

So, slowly and deliberately, I held out my hand and using the force stopped Skywalker in his tracks. As he struggled to get free, I decided that that it was time to step this up a notch. So, I gathered all of my force power along with the sons and directed it solely on the trembling togruta on the floor. Her scream was totally worth the effort but now it was time to get back to the matter at hand.

"Ahsoka, where is he! "I bellowed in anger, her resistance was impressive but really unnecessary not to mention time merely gritted her teeth and refused to answer, so I just intensified the lightning, no person was completely immune to pain.

As I poured my anger into the lightning I could hear the heart wrenching cries of my old apprentice yet it didn't bother me, I was more interested in Skywalker whose face displayed incredible amounts of pure anger, terror and desperation as soon as she had begun screaming in anguish. My grip on him began to slip so I stepped forward to better contain him.

Sensing movement from behind me, I turned back towards Fulcrum and was deeply impressed to find her incorporated, back arched in pain as she clenched her fists trying not to scream, she gathered her remaining strength and spat out a response: "I will never tell you where Obi Wan is, you will not destroy any more jedi, Darth Vader"

This made me growl in anger and frustration, she would break eventually, and I had plenty more where it came from. In the meantime, I would break Anakin, I turned to face him again, purposely showing him the shuddering togruta on the floor, arrogantly I said "Oh Skywalker it was so easy to turn you two against my old apprentice, you were so reckless you launched an attack and did not even feel her force signature or bother to pay attention to the fact that she wasn't even trying to kill you in the fight. "I paused so the words would sink in, "then, all I had to do was convince the Son to pose as the Daughter and you instantly believed him, I was actually surprised the plan was so effective, this young woman bleeding to death behind me is more pure than most of the jedi that lived in the temple, their vision was clouded by war after all. You would think that her force signature would stick out like a sore thumb in a Sith temple in Malachor, as it is, she is going to die and it's all your fault", I finished with a conversational tone, as if they were merely talking about the weather.

And it was at that point that the guilt, anger, horror and fear overflowed as Anakin became completely livid and in a scream of rage broke free of the force binds and charged towards me as he screamed in fury "You killed her! I will destroy you!"

I simply scoffed and responded, "Oh Anakin, you give me too much credit, I only held her with the force while you thoughtlessly stabbed her, this is as much your fault as mine" I knew I had struck a nerve, but before I could continue I spotted the padawan struggling out of the debris, looking ready for a fight, as much as I would like to oblige, I knew that I had to wait and let Anakin's anger turn into full on hatred, then he would join us.

For now however, I focused on Skywalker and dodging his wild blows, which all in all wasn't that hard, I forced jumped about ten meters from him and called the Son, it was time to leave. I still did not know where Obi wan was but when Anakin turned to the dark side, he would use his still active training bond to find him,mine lay in tatters somewhere in the back of my mind and was unfortunately unusable. The Son shimmered into existence with a smug smirk on his face as he looked at the furious Skywalker.

Said man, became even more furious if that was even possible at the sight of the one brought them here, his eyes shone a bright red in anger and hate.

Before he could completely plunge into the dark side, he was distracted by a horrified cry from behind him and recognising the emitter, he turned around, his eyes found his young padawan kneeling on the floor in front of her older self, his eyes widened as faded to blue as he realised what he was about to do, his fists clenched and he whispered bitterly " I did this... Oh Snips I'm so sorry..."

Then he ran towards them

I chose that moment to tell the Son to teleport us away
