Blue Waters: episode #40 The Conversation
Previously: I gave you the final spoiler warning you ill receive.
Samantha and Anakin go on their honeymoon. Of course, they sleep together for the first time (in the true sense of
the word,) and they do not use protection because they don't think she'll get
pregnant the first time. Boba Fett reported the wedding to Mr. Idiot. Palpatine tries once again to lure Anakin
into a trap. He killed off the entire
Jedi Council except Yoda. He sent Arawn
to go spread the news on Alderaan, but Anakin had already sensed it through the
force.
Anakin and Samantha were asleep by 4:00
AM, but they had only just fallen asleep. So, Anakin was still tired when he
was abruptly awakened at 8:AM by a terrible feeling…something had just
happened…something awful, and Anakin had just felt it through the Force. He woke his wife up,
"Ani, what is it?"
"Something terrible has
just happened…. I've got to go to Daogobah."
"What about the rest of
the vacation?"
"We'll come back her…I
just need to know what's going on. I
have a feeling it's Palpatine and it has to do with me."
"Don't be ridiculous…."
"I've got to talk to
the Council…and Yoda. They're on
Dagobah."
"Then I'm going with
you."
As soon as they're
outside someone recognizes Anakin and says,
"The entire Jedi Council has been destroyed."
"Where did you hear
this?"
"Everyone's talking
about it. Some dark haired man reported it to…"
Anakin held up his hand
and says,
"Arawn…that means Palpatine is behind it. Thank you."
Anakin takes off first
at a jog, then he stats running…Samantha behind him all the way.
"We're going to
Dagobah…first we've to got to find out if it's the truth, and I need to talk to
whoever's alive on Dagobah about this."
"Anakin, don't do anything
stupid, please. If you're planning on
facing Palpatine…don't do it alone."
"I'll do what I must.
But first I'm going to Dagobah…and you with me."
So Anakin and Samantha
went to Dagobah while Arawn reported to the Emperor with these words,
"It's been done…the news has become widespread on Alderaan.
There's no way that he could avoid that information."
"Good…good, let me know
when Skywalker arrives here…he will be coming…I have no doubt. Then bother me
no further. You're no Jedi or Sith…the
confrontation will be alone. Wait, in the lunge."
So with that, Arawn
leaves to go to the main spaceport area on Coruscant. Back to Anakin and Samantha. The less than full night of sleep
makes both of them kind of hyper. You
know what I mean…the first day after the first night after getting less sleep
is always like this. Then any other days you feel tired.
"Arawn could have set
things up…" Anakin was saying, "Just so I would go to Coruscant and get killed
like all the other Jedi."
But Anakin had a deep
down feeling that told him he was wrong. He landed the ship not in a swamp…on ground without a problem. They climbed out and as soon as they got
out, Anakin saw Yoda. This relieved him
greatly.
"Yoda's the head of the
Jedi Council…and he's still alive."
Obi-wan was next to him.
As I mentioned before, the Council had moved to Dagobah and no, the Emperor
doesn't know…no one informed him. Also, the small resistance group is stationed
there, but they are currently not on the planet. A very small hospital has been set up on planet with only one
doctor. So, the following conversation only consists of the following
people: Anakin, Samantha, Yoda, and
Obi-Wan.
Anakin says, "Where are the other council members?"
"Dead, Anakin…did you
not feel the disturbance?" asks Obi-Wan.
"Oh, I felt it
all right…that was my main reason for coming here. Then I got news that could only have been from Arawn, which of
courses was form Palpatine that the entire Jedi Council was dead."
Yoda says, "except for
me, yes."
This fires up Anakin.
"Well I'm sick and tired
of Palpatine. Someone needs to stop
him…and stop him now before more Jedi are killed!'
Yoda says, "Agree with
you partially, I do. But go you will not. Finish your training you must."
"IF I don't go now, more Jedi will be killed."
"Yes," speaks up
Obi-Wan, "and don't add your own death to this tragedy, I beg you."
"And sacrifice more Jedi
just so I can finish my training?"
"Not willingly, but if
you honor what you fight for, then yes."
This made Anakin
think. Samantha watched him carefully
in hopes that this would convince him. Anakin shook his head,
"It can't wait. You
don't know a couple of things that have already happened, but I must
face him. IF I don't now, he's going to keep destroying other people's lives
until he gests me."
"Anakin, only a fully
trained Jedi could defeat Darth Sidious. (They had heard that was Palpatine's Sith name.) If you go, only one of 3 things could
happen. You will be killed, you will
kill him, or he will turn you to the Dark Side…. try to make you an
apprentice. It is evident that he wants
you," says Obi-Wan.
Yoda adds in, "To what extent we cannot tell. He may wish to kill you or convert you.
Either way, you are in extreme danger. Stay with us, and train you we will…for facing this thing. Completed
your training it will."
Obi-wan says, "Anakin,
it may be your destiny to destroy Palpatine, but there is still much danger in
it for you."
Samantha adds in, "Ani,
please don't go. I love you! I don't want to lose you to your death on
the first day we're married."
"Why doesn't anyone
think I can defeat him? I will…then
he'll no longer be a problem. Your
offer is tempting, Yoda, but I think I can handle him, now, which is why I'm
going. I have to go. None of you
understand, but he's gone after me for the last time."
"Please don't go, Ani," Samantha says again as he begins walking
towards the ship.
He turns around and hugs
her; and gives her a kiss.
"I love you…but I must
go. Bye for now. I will return to take
you to amazing palaces…. It is for you that I go…and for the good of the
Republic."
She whispers, "good
luck, Ani. May the Force be with
you. I love you…"
He lets her go, then continues onto the ship.
Until next time!
All right, I'm going to add in another warning. To anyone who has ONLY seen The Phantom Menace and or A New Hope, I HIGHLY suggest that you not continue reading. Only if you have seen The Empire Strikes Back……and I don't even suggest reading it if you haven't seen Return of the Jedi, do I encourage you to read. It's up to you, but just note that if you want to discover something in the movies, then DON'T read any further. This story is only a spoiler in the sense that it's going to tell you something if you haven't seen The Empire Strikes Back or Return of the Jedi. I'm avoiding all info. On episode Two, but I do know that a certain event HAS to happen. If you read the next chapter, you'll find out what it is. Also, if you are reading Death Star, you'll find it out in there, but much later. If you're reading Death Star, and you're reading like chapters 25- I don't know….whatever chapter that has The Empire Strikes Back with a certain fight….until you read about a fight, I suggest that you NOT finish this story unless you've seen The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, or until you've finished Death Star.
If you are not going to continue reading, PLEASE REVIEW so that I know you've read this story. Thanks.
If you want to continue reading, do so, but know that I have warned you.
