Lord Sideous paused in front of the main door of his ship, as the ship
landed.
One of his bloodred clad guards pushed sevral buttons beside the door, and it slowly opened with a hiss, revealing a wall of heat.
Sideous took a step out of the ship onto the sand.
His guard moved forward as if to follow him, and with out turning around to face the man, Sideous just stopped.
Slowly, he held up his hand and curled it into a fist.
He heard a gagging sound behind him, then a body dropped into the sand.
Sideous grinned and countinued onward.
At last, he would have what he had been searching for.
Then, he stopped, his gaze turning towards the sky.
Sideous scowled.
Nothing, no ships, besides his own.
"Blasted jedi." he spat.
His gaze returned to the building ahead of him, and he continued onward.
"And it shall be their last mistake...." he said quietly.
Walking forward, Sideous carefully side-steped the bodies of storm troopers.
But, he did not see anything besides the door.
The door to destiny....... so he thought.

As soon as they had seen Lord Palpatine's shuttle, both Anakin and Obi-wan had retreated within the house.
"Go Anakin!" Obi-wan yelled, pausing at the top of stairs to shoot the door controls with his blaster, then he followed Anakin downstairs.
The two burst threw the door at the bottom of the stairs, that lead to the main part of the house.
Padme and Leera were up in a flash, blasters drawn.
Anakin held up his hands, "It's just us." he said, as the girls lowered their weapons, realizing they were not needed.
Padme rushed over to Anakin and wrapped her arms around him, "Are you alright?" she asked.
Anakin nodded, "But we're in trouble, Palpatine just landed."
"Lord Sideous," Leera corrected.
"Whatever." Anakin replied, turning back to Obi-wan."What are we going to do?"
Obi-wan stared at his aprentice, then his gaze shited around the room.
"We cannot run from him." Obi-wan stated, "So I guess we can either fight him- and most likely lose, or we can see what he wants- but if we do, then he will probably get whatever it is."
Silence hung over them.
"Well?" Leera asked. "This should be a vote." she said.
Obi-wan nodded, "Who wants to ask him what he wants?"
Anakin spoke up, "What if he just wants us dead, simply because we're jedi?"
Obi-wan paused, "That would be a chance we would have to take." he said finally.
"That's it?" Anakin exclaimed. "Just...just walk up there and hope the sith lord doesn't kill us all?!"
Obi-wan nodded weakly, "Basically." he muttered.
"No way." Anakin replied, "If I have to die by the hands of the sith, I want to fight him!"
Obi-wan turned to him, "Anakin! Control your feelings, Anger is the path to the darkside!"
"You think I don't know that?!" Anakin yelled back.
A creak from the durasteel door behind them, made them all stop talking, and stare at the door.
Creak.. Eereek...The scrape of metal on metal.
Then, it was pulled away, revealing a dark cloaked figure.
Sideous.
"Ah, so refreshing to see the Jedi argue." he hissed.
Anakin held up his saber, ready to attack.
Sideous glanced at him, "Go a head, jedi, embrace your anger...Strike me down!" he said with a grin.
Obi-wan looked over at Anakin from the corner of his eyes, "No, Anakin!" he breathed.
Anakin lowered his saber a bit.
Sideous nodded, and turned back to face the whole of the group.
"Yes, where were we?" he said.
Padme stepped forward, "What do you want, Palpatine?"
"So quick to the point, Senator?" he replied.Sideous slowly loked around the room, his gaze stopping at Leera.
"You." he hissed.
Leera's eyes grew big, and her face paled.
"You, your the one from my shuttle." sideous said.
Leera nodded.
"Amazing trick, usually only the dead can accomplish that." Sideous said.
Leera said nothing.
Sideous turned away from her, "No...no...your not the one,my dear." he said.
Taking a few steps away from them, Sideous then turned around and stopped.The four all stood about 10 feet away from him, all spread out in a semi-circle.
"You know, "he said quietly, "My former apprentice, Xanatos, had but on goal throughout his apprentice ship with me, and that was to kill Kenobi. As you can see, he failed. But, his failure has become the only great thing he did." Sideous paused.
From across the room, Leera paled. "No." she mouthed, realizing what was about to be said. "No." she repeated, but no one heard her.
Sideous continued, "You see, by his failure, he allowed me to have the perfect aprentice.which would be......"
Time seemed to stop for Leera. There right in front of her, was Sideous, and to the right of her was Obi-wan.
".......Obi-wan Kenobi" Sideous's voice rasped.
~It can't end like this!~ she thought as she saw Sideous's hand moving in Obi-wan direction, about to blast him with Force Lightning.
Leera ran forward, "NOOOO!" she yelled, and leaped infront of Obi-wan, getting hit by Sideous's blast.
In a flash, Anakin was behind the dark lord, along with Obi-wan, lightsabers in hand.
Sideous yelled, and before he could react, he was cut in half.
His face held shock as he muttred his last words, "It...wasn't supposed....to be like this...." he said, and his life-force died.
Obi-wan spun around, "Leera!" he said.
Padme had rushed over to the girl, and was crouchted down next to her.
From where he stood, Obi-wan called out to Padme, as he too rushed over, followed by Anakin.
"Is she alright?!" Obi-wan asked.
Padme looked up at him, her face grim......
