Okay, now Anakin is back and the butt kicking can begin. But, will Anakin be able to succeed where Mace Windu, Kit Fisto, and even the powerful Yoda have failed, or will Sidious kill Anakin or even worse: escape? Read on to find out.

Kitch: 17 years old

Scout: 15 years old

Obi-Wan smiled as Anakin turned on Palpatine. Then, he remembered something. He reached into his robes and pulled out a metal cylinder.

"Anakin!"

Anakin turned to regard his former master.

"I carry this everywhere I go. I think you should have it back."

Obi-Wan tossed the lightsaber to his old padawan, who in turn smiled and activated it. Anakin then turned on Palpatine again, and when he spoke, it was with his old voice and strength.

"You're going to pay for all of the Jedi you have killed and for all of the innocent lives you have ruined or destroyed."

"Can't you see the lies the Jedi are putting into your head Anakin?"

"The only lies I see are the ones you put there."

Sidious lunged suddenly, but Anakin's blue blade was there instantly, blocking it perfectly. Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Kitch, Revan, Kit Fisto, and Mace Windu started to move to help, but they were stopped by a wave of Yoda's hand.

"Intervene not. Young Skywalker's destiny to defeat Sidious and bring the Sith rule to an end, it is."

It was a spectacle that would forever be burned into the minds of everyone watching it. Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One, the Hero With No Fear, was squaring off against Darth Sidious, one of the strongest and darkest Sith Lords to ever exist. Anakin would swing, Sidious would parry, then Sidious would swing, and Anakin would block it. Sidious then reached out with the Force and drained all of the life Force out of Tru, killing him instantly. Anakin charged and swung with all of his physical strength. Sidous suddenly knocked Anakin back, and then shot a burst of deadly Force lightning at the young Jedi, but Anakin used his own Force abilities to deflect it, much like he had seen Yoda do on Geonosis against Count Dooku.

'That seems like ten lifetimes ago when Obi-Wan and I first came face-to-face with Count Dooku. I doubt I can ever fully atone for what I have done, but I can try. I swear on my life I will be a perfect Jedi after this is over, but I will not allow Sidious to escape.'

While Anakin and Sidious fought, Kitch was talking with Padme, telling her their plans to regain control of the Republic Senate.

"Kitch, why don't you use your astomech droid to record this fight, and then we could find a way to send a force message to Anakin and have him to injure Palpatine and charge him. We could make it a live feed to the Senate. You said they're in session right now."

"That just may work." Kitch said, pulling his comlink from his belt.

"Sparky, this is Kitch. Lock onto my tracer and find me. I'm on the bridge; I need you to get up her double time."

The R2 unit beeped a response and Kitch put it back up as he looked at his mother.

"He's on his way. Two minutes later, the door to the bridge opened and the little droid rolled in.

"Sparky, record this via camera and patch it through live to the Senate building on Coruscant. Use one of the Bridge consoles to do it."

While Sparky was doing what he had told him to do, Kitch reached out with the Force.

As Anakin fought Palpatine, he felt a surge in the Force.

'It's Kitch. I need you to not kill Sidious. Injure him and charge him, loud enough for all to hear him. The Senate is watching this, and if you charge him, then it will greatly help Senator Organa regain control of the Senate.'

Anakin wanted nothing more than to kill the man he once counted as one of his greatest friends, but he knew in the long run it would be better to do as Kitch had suggested.

Another hour went by, as every civilized city or town in the Empire and all through the Galaxy watched the fight play out between the two. By now, Anakin was fully in tune to the Force. He could tell where Palpatime would strike, where he would move, every little detail about the fight. And he knew he could, he knew he would win this fight. And he was right. Finally, Anakin knew how to end it. He forced his saber to get tangled with Palpatine's red blade, and then quickly twisted them so his came up and under the enemy blade, and with a great pull, he jerked Palpatine's lightsaber away, slicing it in half in mid-air. Palpatine scrambled backwards as Anakin pointed his lightsaber at the Dark Lord's throat. Finally, Mace moved to help Anakin cover the downed Sith Lord, in case he tried something. Anakin started talking.

"Emperor Palpatine, in the name of the Galactic Senate of the Republic, you are hereby arrested for being the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, treason to the Galactic Republic, and the murder of thousands of Jedi Knights. Senator Amidala, could you please come forward to explain what will happen to the Senate."

Padme had expected this after Sparky had started recording, and thus had been working on a speech.

Anakin turned to face Sparky, to face the Empire.

"Most of you know me as Senator Padmé Amidala. I opposed the creation of an army a decade ago when the Separatist movement started. I am here today to tell you that the Clone Wars were nothing more than a cover by Chancellor Palpatine to take over the Republic. Most of you know by now the Jedi were hunting down the Dark Lord Darth Sidious, leader of the Separatists. However, the leader of the Republic, Chancellor Palpatine, and Darth Sidious were and are the same person. You just saw a Jedi Knight fight Sidious and arrest him for this. As of now, the Jedi Council will assume command of the Republic Senate until a new Supreme Chancellor can be elected. Sidious will be brought back to Coruscant for a full trial, and as soon as we land he will go before the Senate and hand over all of the powers he gained since the Creation of the Galactic Army of the Republic and give it back to the Senate. The Senate and the courts, once a Chancellor is elected will determine his fate. Thank you..."

Padme stopped as she heard Mace and Anakin scream. Everyone watch as Palpatine used a surprise attack to knock the two Jedi to the floor. He moved to escape, but Obi-Wan and Yoda blocked his path. As Palpatine moved to try a different escape, Anakin came up behind him and hit him hard the butt of a discarded blaster rifle, knocking him out cold. He smiled at Obi-Wan.

"That was too close."

"Sparky, cut the connection, now."

Once it was cut, he ordered Sparky to get a communication channel open to Coruscant. A second later, his sister answered, at the last minute having decided to lead the attack on Coruscant.

"Jessica, how are y'all doing?"

"We just retook the Jedi Temple. What about you?"

"Malak and Rage are dead. Palpatine is in custody and going to return to Coruscant, and Vader has returned to being Anakin Skywalker. He returned to the Light Side."

"Good. I'll see you when you guys arrive."

"Copy that. Send a message to Naboo and have the others go to the Temple."

"Will do."

Once Kitch cut the link, he turned and run over to Scout and untied her. She fell softly into his arms. He laid her on the ground and tried to rerive her.

"Scout, wake up. Wake up, don't die on me."

After a minute of using the Force, he managed to get her to open her eyes.

"Kitch?"

"It's me. Don't worry, it's all over."

"Palpatine, he's..."

"Relax, Anakin and Mace have him covered."

"Anakin Skywalker? But he..."

"Has been redeemed and returned from the Dark Side of the Force. Malak and Rage are dead, it's over. Come on, let's get you to the Jedi Guardian and get you some food."

"Kitch, about earlier, I'm sorry about what I said. I..."

"Relax, I have already forgiven you. I understand where you were coming from: I would have done the same thing."

Kitch helped Scout back to the ship while Mace, Yoda, and Anakin took Palpatine and the others helped the rest of the captives to the ships. Obi-Wan carried Tru's dead body to the ship.

After everyone was on the ships, and Scout was lying in a bed, Kitch, followed by Revan in the Ebon Hawk, left the Executor. After hearing what had truly happened, the whole fleet had surrendered and were now agreeing to deploy to Coruscant until they received further orders. Once they were in hyperspace, Kitch got up and went to the galley, where the others were talking and eating. He grabbed a nerf burger and some Aldeeranian Ale and sat down next to Anakin and his mother. It wasn't long after that when Barriss walked in. Then, so everyone could hear her, she started talking.

"I just came back from checking on Tallisibeth and making sure there was no permanent damage from being held hostage by the Sith. I have discovered some 'interesting' news."

By now, everyone had gone silent, and when Anakin asked her what it was, she smiled, and it was directly at Kitch, who was beginning to get a funny feeling in his throat.

"Well, she should be okay. I didn't pick up on any irregularities that would suggest any permanent damage. She is a little malnourished, but we can fix that easily. The thing is this; she's pregnant."

Kitch was beginning to turn bright red from all of the looks he was receiving, and he wanted nothing more than to be swallowed whole by a Tatooine Kyrat Dragon.

"You will be interested and pleased to know that there was no damage done to the child, who happens to be a boy."

"Allow this, the Jedi shall. But remember young Kitch, difficult it will be. One day again, you may have to choose between them and your duty. The decision, forever live with, you will. May the Force be with you in that decision. For you, the same thing goes, young Skywalker."

"I will do my duty to the Jedi Order and to the Republic until the day I die."

"Master Yoda, we still need to fill up the Jedi Council."

"Master Qui-Gon, Master Windu, and Master Fisto, sit on the Council, you will."

"Master Yoda, with Tru Veld dead, we have room for one more person."

"Aware of this fact, I am. Young Skywalker, a true Jedi Master have you become. You have proved today that you can control your anger and do what is right. By not killing Sidious did you prove that, Therefore, promote you to Jedi Master and seat you on the council, I do."

Anakin sat there, too stunned to know what to say. Finally, he stood and bowed.

"Thank you Master Yoda."

For the first time in years, Anakin Skywalker accepted things as they were.

Another chapter done. REVIEW PEOPLE. Thank you.
