Thanks so much for all the reviews, not counting the one from me on my mistake I have 21. Thanks so much, the next chapter in this story I warn you, in this chapter everything is not as it appears to be, don't assume anything.
Chapter 13: Coruscant
Sidious and Xen watched as the last badly damaged Republic ship sped away into hyperspace. Thankfully Anakin was on it so Sidious would have a chance to kill him in person.
" Captain!" Screeched Sidious." Set a course for Coruscant immediately, we will take them by surprise, they have lost half the fleet and the other half will be blown away before they can get the crew to their battle stations."
" Roger, roger." Honestly, was that all those stupid little circuit heads could say, oh if only the clones had sided with him, but sadly that would not happen. Once his ship and every other one flew into hyperspace Sidious turned to Xen.
" Once we arrive at Coruscant and their fleet is crushed we will lead an attack on the Jedi temple, they will be destroyed and I will take over office, then we will issue a bounty on the head of any Jedi and we will have our Empire."
" If you say so."
" What's wrong?"
" Skywalker was one of the first ever opponents I hadn't defeated."
" Ah, your grudge against the chosen one?"
" Yes, that damn little whelp, when he dies I want him to suffer."
" Mmm, physical pain is dose not necessarily hurt more. Emotional can eat person's soul."
" What do you mean?"
" I mean that idiot married senator Amaidala and if we destroy her it will destroy him, then he will beg for death, and being a merciful Sith Lord I will grant his wish."
" But its forbidden for Jedi to marry."
" Which is the top reason Yoda had to die now. He would be exiled but the council will not meet which means Anakin will stay a Jedi and stay at the temple and we can kill his wife first if we wish or we can spare him and have his wife executed."
" Milord you are counting an awful lot on the fact that we can kill the senator."
" And what is that supposed to mean?"
" Your plan has a weakness."
" Alright then, providing Anakin gets her off system and into hiding then what do you suggest?"
" Well, I'm not so sure…"
" Then be silent."
Hour or Two Later Couruscanti Space
Sidious fleet arrived only ten minutes after Anakin's ship, he Obi-wan and Shaak Ti had fled onto Coruscant to prep the Jedi, there was no question the fleet would be destroyed and with about a thousand or so clones on Coruscant the odds were not great. And with about eighty percent of the remaining Jedi still Padawans or recent Knights the odds were still bad. If Sidious sent enough droids Coruscant would be taken.
Jedi Temple Council Room
" We have called this emergency meeting to order on the subject Anakin Skywalker." Shaak Ti quickly said." Anakin you are exiled from the order on grounds of marrying Padmé Amidala." Ti finished formally and not so formally she stated:
" Anakin get your wife and flee, you are not good to the Republic dead and Jedi or not you are still the chosen one, we will stay here long enough for you to flee."
" Yes master." Anakin said rushing to the door and taking a glance at Obi-wans grave face as it opened and then closed behind him.
As predicted the fleet had been destroyed and Sidious along with Xen and about half a million droids were on boarding ships for Coruscant. Half to deal with the Jedi and half to take the senate.

Anakin rushed into Padmé's office.
" Anakin! The separatists are attacking and at least fifty droid transport ships are headed to the senate!"
" I know! I have to get you out of here!"
" Anakin I am the Chancellor I cannot leave!"
" You're my wife and I am not going to let you be killed!"
" What makes you sure I would be killed."
" Don't argue with me now Padmé. You're going on your ninth month of pregnancy so chances are…"
" Alright, follow me my ship is a floor belo ahh!"
" What!"
" Its time… Anakin the pain is starting I'm going into labor!"
Perfect timing! Anakin thought. Using the force to aid him he picked Padmé up and ran out of the room.

Blast blots swooped by everywhere, some hit Jedi others bounced back into their droid creators. Sidious cut down another pathetic Padawan. They had already taken the entrance hall and had split up, half to the archives room and the other half in another huge hall that had caved in due to a bomb the droids had dropped. The rubble had fallen into the hall crushing hundreds of Jedi and droids, the fight now took place on the balcony above Sidious part of it as well as Xen.
The Coruscanti sun was down now and there was not much light in the place. As the last Padawan on the balcony was shot down several Jedi masters jumped out of nowhere, all council members.
Sidious watched as Ki-Adi-Mundi fell, just then Obi-wan landed in front of him and blocked his view.
" Ah, master Kenobi, so good to see you again, my, my you're turning gray." Sidious said coolly." Oh and might I suggest you not stare at my face, in case you haven't noticed there is quite a big battle going on."
" So sorry, I was just a little distracted by your good looks."
" Mmm, soon you will look the same after my saber is done fixing your face. But do not worry Anakin will be able to identify you!"
" Anakin is gone, you have failed."
" Only if I don't kill you, and frankly I don't think Anakin can handle an emotional of that magnitude."
" Sidious you can still back off. Because in case you haven't noticed your legion of droids are gone and there are four council members encircling you. This is your chance."
" Well unless one of you has somehow resurrected Yoda and inserted him in their pocket I hardly think I'll need that chance seeing as though your three other council members are about to die."
" How so?"
" XEN!"
Without warning three charred heads fell to the ground as Xen soared from the rafters above and whirled her saber into the Jedi necks.
" Xen, Kenobi is mine, go help the droids."
" Yes Sidious, if I must."
Sidious hurled his blade at Obi-wan's head. He parried that and the other swipes Sidious took, backing towards the edge of the balcony with every red whirl. Poor Kenobi. Soresu wasn't the greatest offensive style and frankly Sidious's was far to complicated for it to match up to.
After the next of Sidious's strikes Obi-wan nailed his blade right through Sidious's saber hilt. It fell to the ground useless. Angered greatly Sidious sent a wave of force lightning at Obi-wan who was not where near prepared. He dropped his saber as the blue hurricane crashed into him blowing him backwards and over the railing of the balcony.
Sidious ran over the edge and in the extremely dim light he saw Kenobi hit a stone. Blood ran all over everything, he was still alive but he would die down there. To bad Sidious failed to notice the blood was not Obi-wan's.
He walked up to the fallen Jedi's lightsaber picked it up, opened it and tossed out the blue crystal. He then went to his broken one and pulled the red crystal out and inserted it into Obi-wan's it would do, until he could get another one, now he had to go to the senate.
Sidious went to the senate and they all bowed to him in fear, the Republic was now an Empire, and he was its emperor. He ruled and no one could stop him.
As I said this chapter is not all it appears to be, don't assume anything, next chapter and last is called exile. I have slight plans for a sequel so as I said ideas are welcome.
