Chapter 19: True Feelings
Garen and Anakin had been safe so far in relocating the base to Adari. Garen was totally focused on their mission, though he couldnt help notice the fact that Anakin had been distant. Garen knew he was thinking about Obi-wan. Garen realized how hard this would be on him. He knew that Obi-wan had slim chance of actually making out of this alive, but Garen also knew this was the only way Obi-wan would be able to find true peace. Garen knew he could offer no words of comfort to Anakin, there was nothing to say.
"This is what Obi-wan wanted, You must understand this" Garen spoke.
"But why alone, I dont think he can do it on his own. I know he had improved immensely since i last sparred with him, but still, as much as he told me about Darth Sidious, it seems he is unbeatable! Obi-wan is going to die, and You wont do anything about it!" Anakin hissed. He was angry at Garen for going along with Obi-wans' plan so easily.
"You dont understand Anakin! He wanted this. If he doesnt do this he will never be at peace. He has to confront his past, his former master. Even if it kills him, he will be at peace though. Dont you want him to be at peace!" Garen said.
"But I dont want him to die...when he left 4 years ago, I was lost, he is like a brother to me! A Brother! We had so many years together, such a bond, and now hes going to die! Please lets go help him, i dont think i could take him dieing, just after i had just found him again! Please" Anakin begged for them to go back to help Obi-wan.
"No, I have strict orders, I am not going against Obi-wan, I want him to live just as much as you, but please understand he wants peace within himself, hell i want him to find peace too, and this is the only option!" Garen tried to make Anakin understand, though he found it extremely hard.
Whilst they were talking they slipped up in a mistake. Some battle cruisers found them.
"Surrender now!" The commander of the other ship commed into the transport.
"Sith!" Garen hissed in frustration, there were too many battle cruisers around them to let them fight through it. They were caught.
"We surrender" Anakin said calmly into the comlink, this was slightly what he had wanted. They would be escorted back to Corusant where the Supreme Chancellor was, and where Obi-wan would undoubtfully end up.
"I guess you get your wish..." Garen mumbled angerly. As the battle cruisers herded them back to the core of the galaxy, the planet of Corusant.
Once they reached Corusant, Anakin quietly and quickly slipped out of the grips of battle crusiers' control. Garen followed just to watch over him, make sure he didnt do anything stupid. Anakin moved his way up to the Supreme Chancellors' room, Garen caught up with him, trying to restrain Anakin. Anakin stormed through the doors. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine was there, and Obi-wan as well. Much to Anakin's suprise General Grevious was there was well.
"Looks like you have some back up, there Obi-wan" Palpatine smiled wickedly looking past Obi-wan who was glaring at him from his desk, looking past him to see Anakin, who looked furious, and also Garen who had stood behind him.
"Garen! Cant you follow my orders!" Obi-wan whiped around quickly, his eyes were on fire with anger, rage, and hatred.
"Sorry Obi-wan...Anakin was the one behind this" Garen told him.
"Stay Out Of This Both of You!" Obi-wan shouted with rage, then he turned back to the sith lord.
"Now 'master' its time for your demise!" Obi-wan hissed, drawing his lightsaber, instantly it exploted into a long blue glowing blade.
"See the Dark side is still rooted deeply in you" The sith lord smiled wickedly standing up, withdrawing his red saber. The two circled the desk, Obi-wan glaring coldly into the sith lords' eyes. And Darht Sidious just staring at Obi-wan.
"You will not lure me in again!" Obi-wan shouted lunging at him, in a furious attack.
