OKAY, HERE IS THE SECOND POSSIBLE ENDING TO CHAPTER ONE PLEASE R&R (UNLESS I GET MORE REVIEWS I MAY HOLD THE LAST CHAPTER HOSTAGE)
Scout and Whie watched as Madame Jocasta Nu fell to the ground. Then, they took off as the clones attacked. As they left the Archive room, they turned to see Anakin cut down an older padawan without mercy.
However, a close shot forced them to take off again. As they run, the could here gunfire all around them, as well as the screams of Jedi and Clones alike as they were cut down. Eventually, they stopped, causing Scout to look at Whie.
"What is it Whie?"
"My dream makes sense now. When I dreamt I'd die by the blade of a Jedi, that Jedi was Anakin Skywalker. And the person fighting next to me was you; it all fits perfectly."
"You mean...we're going to die? Oh great, NOW he tells me." Scout said in a sarcastic voice. Whie looked at her and tried not to laugh at her facial expression as he continued.
"Maybe not. When you made me go talk to Master Yoda, he told me that the future is always in motion. Maybe we can change the outcome of my dream. But that means we'll have to face Anakin, and win."
"Yeah sure, and just maybe Master Yoda will arrive in time to save the day again." Scout answered back with sarcasim in her every word. Whie just shook his head.
"We have to defeat him. Otherwise he'll kill every single Jedi in the Temple."
"I don't like this..."
"Scout, you've tried all of your life to be the best Jedi there is...now is that time."
"You're right Whie. Okay, let's kick Anakin's butt."
Whie gently kissed Scout before they turned and run back in the direction they had come, determined to defeat Anakin Skywalker for good.
They found the former Jedi with a squad of Clone Troopers, calmly walking through the bodies they had stacked up in their attack. Whie and Scout moved to stand in Anakin's path. Anakin stopped and as he did his troops raised their rifles to fire on Scout and Whie...only to be stopped by Anakin himself.
"Continue your mission Sargeant Kirth, I will deal with these two myself."
"As you wish my Lord."
The squad rushed by Scout and Whie, leaving them alone with Anakin.
"Small fry, I would run while I still had the chance if I were you."
"Don't count on it Anakin."
"Yeah, we're not going to let you continue your path of destruction any longer." Scout's lightsaber sang as blue as the sky as it came to life next to the emerald blade that belonged to Whie. Anakin in turned produced a blue blade identical to that of Scout's and without hesitation the fight was on.
Blue and green danced around the three as their blades twirled around them, creating a net of deadly intensity. Anakin would swing only to be blocked by Whie's lightsaber and then Scout would come in with her blade, forcing Anakin to withdraw his attack to defend himself. With this system of fighting, they were able to force Anakin back, and for a while it seemed as though they would actually defeat Anakin.
"I hope you two have made your peace, because now it is time for you to become one with the Force!"
"Evil will never win Anakin, and you know that. Plus, Whie has an advantage over you."
"Yeah Skywalker. You forget: I dreamed this battle months ago, and this time it will end differently."
Whie swung his blue blade down low, causing Anakin to fall back. And then the fight intensified.
Anakin would get a hit on one of them, but the other would be there to knock Anakin back. The duel continued like this for almost an hour before Anakin got tired of it.
"I have toyed with the two of you enough. It is time I end this once and for all!"
Anakin pushed Scout over to the wall on the opposite side of the room, leaving Whie to face Anakin alone. Then, with another push of the Force, Anakin knocked Whie to the ground, causing Whie's green lightsaber to deactivate and fall to the ground, leaving the young padawan defenseless. Anakin raised his blade up high and brought it down on Whie...only to be intercepted not by a lightsaber, but rather by the right hand of Scout, who had grabbed ahold of the blade itself and pulled it free of Anakin's hand.
Scout gritted her teeth as she felt pain rush through her right hand as the blade blistered her hand worse than she had ever had it before. However, she grabbed the hilt from midair with her lefthand, activated the blue blade, and pushed it through Anakin's chest. Anakin gasped in surprise as the lightsaber entered his heart. His eyes widened, and then he fell to the ground, just as had happened with Master Jocasta Nu.
Scout deactivated the blade and hung Anakin's lightsaber on her hilt, deciding she would give it to Obi-Wan; that is, if he lived.
Whie led Scout to a now empty infirmary, where he put what healing arts he knew to the test. Over a course of ten minutes, he doctored her blistered right hand. He aplied several bacta patches on it, and then bandaged her hand.
"Scout, why did you do that? If you would have messed up..."
"Come on Whie, I wouldn't have messed up; I've done it so many times I could easily do it in my sleep.
"But had you messed up, he could have killed you. After all, his lightsaber is set to a higher power than ours."
"But Whie, he would have killed you. I couldn't stand to watch you die. That alone...it would...it would kill me."
"Scout, no matter what happens, I will always be with you. I love you more than life itself, and nothing, not even Vader, will ever change that."
"Do you really mean that?"
"Yes. Yes, I do."
"It's...it's...cute."
Whie looked at her for a minute and then the two started to laugh. They kept going until they heard the sound of blaster fire in the hall. They rushed out to see Master Cin Drallig with a bunch of padawans fighting the clones, and winning. Scout and whie joined them and soon the group of gallant defenders were able to push what few Clone troops remained out of the Jedi Temple. Several of the remaining Jedi Knights rushed to the Jedi Starfighters and jumped in, ready to protect the Temple from the air.
"My Lord, we have been pushed out of the Jedi Temple?"
"What? Where is Lord Vader."
"I'm afraid he's one of the too many casulties we suffered during the battle."
"Very well Sargeant. You take what men you have left and leave; I will deal with the Jedi myself."
"As you wish my Lord."
Darth Sidious, better known to the galaxy as Chancellor Palpatine, stood and began to prepare for his solo attack on the Jedi in the Jedi Temple. He would exact vengence on those who had killed his apprentice. It would take a few hours to prepare; after all, even a Sith Lord would have to work to do what he was going to do.
A few hours later, Darth Sidious walked up to the Jedi Temple. Thanks to Sargeant Kirth, he knew who killed his apprentice, and now he would kill them as well as the rest of the Jedi in the Temple.
He slipped through the halls until finally he found the two responsible for Lord Vader's death. His crimson lightsaber came to life, and he walked towards them ready for the kill.
Snap-hiss
"Hold it right there Darth Sidious." a well clipped Coruscanti voice said as another lightsaber came to life. Sidious turned to see Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi walking forward, his blade ignited.
Snap-hiss
"At an end, your rule is; and not short enough it was." Yoda said, coming out of the shadows, his green lightsaber burning with intensity.
Snap-hiss
Snap-hiss
"You will pay for your betrayal Chancellor." Jedi Masters Quinlin Vos and Cin Drallig said.
Snap-hiss
Cin Drallig's appretice Serrr and Master Iron Hand walked forward to join the others, the latter looking at the two padawans.
"Okay children, get out of here."
Scout and Whie walked to the edge of the room and watched.
Sidious realized he was outnumbered, but he was going to fight to the death. He lept forward and attacked, and the seven Jedi moved forward to fight.
Together, the seven strongest Jedi remaining in the Temple pushed the shadow cast by Sidious off of the map. Now Sidious was defensless, shooting Force-Lightning at Yoda, who was blocking it and shooting it back at the diminuative Jedi Master. Obi-Wan's lightsaber came in from behind, cutting into Sidious's lung's and killing the Sith Lord.
Later
Yoda walked up to Scout and Whie in the Room of a Thousand Fountains.
"Yes Master Yoda?"
"Wish to talk to you, I do."
"Of course Master."
"A good job, you did today. Not an easy thing, it is, to fight young Skywalker for over an hour, and leave no weakness for him to get through. Saved the Jedi Order, you did. There for, decided I have, along with those remaining of the Council, to promote you to the rank of Jedi Knight."
He then looked at a stunned Scout.
"Come true young Scout, your dream has." he then looked at her right hand, which one of the remaining medics had healed, though it would take a week to completly do so.
"Still winning the hard way, you are, hmmm? Glad to see Master Leem was right about not sending you to the Agri Corps, I am. Proud of you, your Master Maruk would be, and proud of Whie, Master Leem would be."
"Master Yoda."
"Young Whie, a question you have?"
"The betrayal of the clones. How many Jedi died, and how many are left?"
"Half of the Jedi Order, died they have. Only Master Kenobi and I remain of the Jedi Council. But, survived the Order has. Rebuild itself, the Order will. Now, rest the both of you need. Speak to you later, I will."
Two days later, Scout was asleep when her door opened and Master Yoda walked in.
"Speak to you, I must."
"Yes Master Yoda?"
"Married, young Anakin was. To the Senator of Naboo, Padme Amidala. Pregnant she is. Hid this from even his Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, he did. Called to him, the Dark Side did, preying on his fear of his wife's death. Proves the code right about attachment, this does."
Scout gulped. He knew about her and Whie.
"However, also showed me the error of the code, this development has."
"What error, Master Yoda?"
"Left the Order for love, too many Jedi have. Realized I have; if Jedi are allowed to love, then afraid to talk, they will not be. Maybe then, resist the Dark Side, more Jedi could."
"What are you trying to say Master Yoda?"
"Agreed the Council is, after much debate. Changed the Jedi Code has. Attachment, allowed it is. Accept for training only younglings, we will not."
"You mean Jedi are now allowed to fall in love?"
"Come to this agreement lightly, the council did not. When fighting Sidious, realized something I did. I mistake, I made."
"You, make a mistake? Yeah right."
"Training the Jedi to fight the last war with the Sith, I was. Changed, the Sith did, more flexible they have become. Almost beat me for this reason, Sidious did."
Yoda turned and walked out, his stich clacking on the floor.
"Master Kenobi?"
"Yes?"
"I have something for you. The lightsaber of Anakin. I'm sorry we killed him, but we had no choice."
"I understand..."
Scout and Whie would become married with two children, and both would live to be over 100 years old. The Jedi Order would rebuild, and become stronger than ever.
