The blood red eyes looked back at him, and the lightning, now dark orange, almost red, stopped. Anakin jumped over the table and slashed at his brother, who blocked it with difficulty. Alec blocked a number of intense slashes fuelled by hate, before he could start his attack. After a few failed slashes, Alec force pushed him on to another landing platform, but Anakin reacted quickly and used force lighting once more, which was still dark orange. Alec struggled to keep the deadly bolts of lightning away, but managed to keep them away with the emerald blade he made himself.
"You're scared of the dark side, aren't you Alec? But you haven't seen it at full power yet! Prepare to die, dearest brother!" The Dark orange lightning suddenly turned blood red, just like Anakin's eyes. The Emerald lightsaber flew away and sliced a computer in half. Alarms went off and the control room started to shake. Roaring in anger, Anakin threw his blue lightsaber had his brother with so much speed it would seem impossible to dodge, let alone catch it, but that's what Alec did. Using the force, he skilfully caught the saber.
"ARGGHH!" Anakin roared, and ran toward his new ship, a Sith Fighter, equipped to the teeth with blasters, missiles and bombs. Alec took a homing device out of his belt, and used the force to guide it toward the Sith Fighter, but to make sure Anakin didn't notice it fly threw the air or on his ship. The device landed under his wing, and Alec grinned to himself, and used the force to regather his own lightsaber. He put Anakin's saber next to his secondary in his cloak, and put his first choice in the helm. Alec sprinted to his fighter and started shooting at Anakin's ship. But, the Hero with No Fear just dodged the shots and sent a missile down his brother's way. The missile narrowly missed, but Anakin pulls away from the Jedi fighter and speeds away. Alec knows that Anakin is a far better pilot than himself, so he is all ready at a disadvantage to his brother. Still shooting at the Sith Fighter, and still failing to gain a hit. Alec then realises that Anakin may fire a missile at his hyperdrive ring, leaving him stuck on Mustafar. So, at the realization of this, he sped up to catch his brother and started shooting, putting the newest Sith Lord under pressure to go to his Hyperdrive ring and leave his brothers alone. 'Not like he has any idea where I'm going' he thought to himself, as both brothers simultaneously clicked into their hyperdrive rings. "He's going back to Coruscant…" Alec muttered to himself, setting the coordinates for Coruscant and waiting for the jump to Hyperspace.
Lord Vader sat in his Sith fighter, wondering where his dear brother was headed.
"I will kill him one day very soon…"
Sitting in his very own Jedi fighter, Alec Skywalker looked out at the windows and looked into hyperspace. A single tear rolled down his face as he remembered the person he knew as Anakin Skywalker: All those years on Tantioone… He remembered one moment where the school bully knocked him to the ground, when he was a small boy stating school, and Anakin stood up for him. All though they both ended up with bleeding lips and broken noses, this was the end of 'sibling wars' and the beginning of a friendship that Alec thought would last forever. He was proved wrong.
A Sith fighter suddenly appeared from Hyperspace. A Jedi Star fighter followed the Sith Fighter only moments later.
"WHAT! He must have put a homing device on the ship… Arghh! It shouldn't matter; anyway, I can shoot him down…" Anakin took the controls from Artoo.
"Lock onto him, Artoo" Artoo replies with a series of angry beeps
"I don't care if it's my brothers fighter or not, lock onto it then shoot it down!" Artoo gave up and the guns locked onto the speeding Star fighter.
"Good bye, brother. See you in hell!" Anakin's eyes turned blood red as the lasers, also coloured red, fired at the yellow fighter.
"R4, let's try and outrun him" The little red astro droid, that once belonged to Obi-Wan, beeped back at him. The Jedi Star Fighter sped up, then turned around, and fired green blaster beams at the Sith Fighter, who retaliated with his red beams. They were both speeding toward each other, and if one didn't pull up soon, that was going to be the end of both Skywalkers…
Back on Mustafar, Padme was finally coming to. She realised that Anakin and Alec had left her behind. 'One of them is probably dead by now…' She started crying at the thought. After a while, her eye sockets were red. She decided she better go back to Coruscant, were there was Bail, and Obi-Wan.
"Threepio set a course for… Oh My God!" She looked at the golden mess in front of her. "Threepio…" she quickly gathered up all the pieces, but she couldn't find the head. She walked over to the edge of the landing platform, and found a little trail in the ash, which lead to a golden head with two droid-eyes, about 20 centimetres from falling into a lava river…"There's your head…" She picked it up and put it with the rest on the ship "Maybe Artoo can fix you up" she said doubtfully. She set a course for Coruscant and minutes later, they were in hyperspace…
Anakin and Alec were still speeding toward each other, neither moving, just shooting. They couldn't hit the other fighter, not because of bad aiming but because of the force. Every time they fired, a memory flashed in there minds: When Anakin won the podrace, Alec cheered the loudest, and was the first to congratulate Anakin. When they were Padawans, Alec accidentally smashed some glass that was important to his Master, Yoda. Anakin took the blame. When Anakin and Padme got married, the only human witness was Alec, who swore on his life not to tell anyone. When Alec and Anakin were fighting Count Dooku on The Invisible Hand, Alec sacrificed his arm so Anakin could take Dooku's head. Anakin couldn't hit the target because these stupid flashing memories were distracting him. Alec couldn't hit because he couldn't bring himself to kill his brother, at least not above Coruscant. He pulled up seconds before they blew up, and started to race toward Coruscant. But Anakin wasn't going to let him slip away that easily. "Artoo, fire a missile, no, two missiles at him" the missiles set of to get there target. Alec used every trick he knew to try and avoid the missiles, but to no avail. They were closing in on him. He tried spinning around, to smash them into each other, but these seemed to be smarter than vulture droid missiles. Alec had a crazy idea. He suddenly stopped, and moved his right wing up a bit. They both shot past him, and Alec started shooting at them. 'This is mad' R4 said in beep language. He hit one, but the other was going to blow him back to Mustafar if he didn't hit it soon. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a Sith Fighter about to go into the Coruscant Atmosphere. With the last shot, he hit the missile, and went after his brothers Sith Fighter…
