Summary: RotS AU. The moment when
Anakin decides Dooku's fate.
There was a faint crackle of energy as Anakin crossed the two lightsabers and positioned them at Dooku's neck.
Then came the Chancellor's voice, urging him to... do something. But the politician's words did not quite register in Anakin's mind, for he found himself entranced by the contrasting colors of the lightsabers.
Blue was for Jedi. Red was for Sith. At that moment, he was wielding both. Then suddenly Anakin just knew, that if he killed now, the act would serve not only the Jedi, but also the Sith.
Anakin deactivated both sabers, and declared Dooku to be under arrest.
