The Master Guardians
Disclaimers: the characters don't belong to me, the story belongs to me, everything else belongs to the author and the creator of the movies.
Warnings: This is going to cover the rewrite to the story connecting the Jedi Apprentice stories together as though he was Adi's apprentice and Ferus was with Obi-wan and Qui-Gon as with it, Qui-Gon survived the fight with Darth Maul, as this is what if from the very beginning they gave him a second chance as he becomes everything he was supposed to be under Adi and Siri now.
Also this is covering his life leading into Rogue Planet, As Luke and Leia see Anakin's life in Action of what he and Obi-wan used to tell them. As he stays a Jedi and becomes everything Yoda and Obi-wan explained to Luke. In the fabication to what happened to him, before Vader was born now.
Sorry this is just to get the rest of the chapters reloaded, and then I can finish this one, so it's going to be a couple weeks to get this back on track again. But I'll finish the end of this one, before Anakin's version to Apprentice Novels begin….
Chapter 5: Return Of The Jedi VI: The Truth Comes Out VII
"And then there's a matter that needs to be put on the table now here, before we change the future to save the Jedi, in your words, the Jedi are not gone. And not if I have anything to say about it, but Master, though you helped me give direct orders to the Twins. Just say I found the twins when they were 5, I change back 5 years after turning, or age 10. Age 14, are you going to give it the possibility I could change back, or continue holding onto this belief right now."
"Because do that, you're only alienating my family, Padme, if she was still alive and survived the near miscarriage, and the twins, my son-in-law and his friends further. Till they see you as the bad guy, and decide being a Grey Jedi is better right now then the frigidity. Of the code, till your associate, and it was Bail Organa by the way, till they decide to just disown you as friends, family?" he asked, looking between them then and Obi-wan felt his heart sink at the question.
"So to your family, they had enough of whoever pretending you could never change back, till something causes the twins to renounce their Jedi heritage. Because the duo and whoever it is sees you and Vader and not as two sides of the same man, but one and the same?" Mace said sternly and he nodded. "Yeah, but this is a piece you and the rest of the council would never agree with anyway now, but how am I to be blamed for the destruction of the Jedi here now."
"When our common enemy is the Sithmaster that orchestrated this entire thing?" he asked and the 10 crossed their arms and Yoda swallowed hard at that. "Are you telling me that instead of trying to take you alive to lock up Andy, they tried to kill you?" Ki said slowly and he nodded and they nodded in stern fury at that. "With you just giving your alter ego a name, we call him by name starting now, but Andy helped the Sithmaster, he killed our clones here as well now."
"He helped Sidious hunt down and destroy the Jedi, that it was not you, it wasn't you who cut my wrist off, it wasn't you who killed his accomplice, prior to you. It was never you that wiped out what was left of our clones, it was never you, but we said this a few hundred times. This doesn't just happen all at once, it takes hundreds of traumas before the final crash here. The you we know, currently the boy and later the young man we raised would never do this."
"This is the you we know, the you we raised, our padawan, son, brother and best friend, losing you is bad enough already, but both of you at once, I can't even take the consideration." Mace said gently and Anakin pressed his forehead to his and he closed his eyes then. Before feeling his heart tear and pulling him into a hug and he tightened his arms around his shoulders then. "Alright we're talking about this right now, young man, Master." Tiana said sternly at this news.
"Master, we said this a few hundred times, the reason Qui' never wanted to be on the council, is for this reason exactly, he's not so frigid about it. But we're supposed to guide our padawans, until they reach the level to where they're ready to fully grown Jedi themselves. Or was this…., Master was this because you decided to, with him as a member of the council. To handle this yourselves and then claim Vader killed him, after a close call?" Adi said and he swallowed hard.
"I know, to explain this exactly in a way you can understand, and you're not going to like this, but Master Yoda, instead of putting the blame on said person who turned. Maybe you should take responsibility for your own decisions right now, this was why everyone was losing faith. In us, before my downfall, in that alternate reality." Anakin said and Yoda jerked at that. "Obi-wan, you're just as responsible, it's not my fault you never took action last week, you allowed this."
"You allowed me to be taken out from under your watchful eye and when the truth comes out, we been tricked, it's too late and the order is wiped out." he said and Obi-wan swallowed hard. "Being a mentor means you're solely responsible for your padawan, but your arrogance, at thinking you could be like Father, like Master, his arrogance at never changing the code. That became your downfall, and my destruction." he said and the trio crossed their arms then at that.
"Did any of us try to talk some sense into you, before you were forced into making that decision?" Damon asked and he nodded. "One and after Sidious slaughtered his quartet, I arrived in time and then realized he wanted this." he said and Tiana nodded sternly. "We only have 4 Master Guardians in this order, and the two that could have are gone, that left one. And a case of a power struggle, if said word was shouted out I had what I needed already now."
"Said that was already in your hands, I would have killed him myself, and you win, and instead Vader overwhelmed my control and then did it." he said and they nodded as Mace exchanged looks with Kit at that news. "He shouted at me not to listen, and was about to shout I already had it at my disposal, before Vader took it, hold and cut his wrist off." he said and Mace nodded. "It was in the archives, I was going to give it to you now, if you waited for me, us, like I asked."
"If you waited and then told me you been having these visions for weeks, I would have told you, you had it at your disposal, I would give it to you when we got back. Based on that description said one is me, after I realized your scales were being weighed down to turning. If I didn't destroy the temptation, I was going to lose you here, because I was about to give it to you. As you told me about these visions now finally." Mace said and Anakin nodded to confirm that.
"Mace when I fight, you see me go into the zone you do, you knew this, I wasn't evil, a Sith, I was a controlled Master Guardian, but…" he started to say and Mace looked at Obi-wan sternly at that remark. "If there was a sparring session, before you left for protection detail that night, I would see this as stop being so critical, you have exceptional skills. But you're exemplifying my mannerisms, as you don't, that could do a lot of damage." he said and Obi-wan paled at that.
"Ferus destroyed 18 months to 2 years worth of progress after I told you what I saw, instead of considering they were responsible for Darra's murder. Obi-wan considered I had a hand in this for not telling him sooner, of my original time-line, but I lost someone I love. Is that in any reason to be critical to the point, you're being rude as I remind him of dual edged orders?" he asked and the sextet crossed their arms. "No, not at all." Tiana said and he swallowed hard.
"We had orders to protect her, and yet we also had to find who dis this, but our team are the best of friends, you could have left Mace, Adi and Sir in charge of protection detail. They would have, after hearing my dreams went berserk, go to look in on it, as Mace comes with me. To get mom, and the girls stay with Padme, as we, she and I take the trio home, dreams stopped. I can focus finally, as we wait to hear from you." he said and Obi-wan paled, never considering it.
"Siri had protection and Obi-wan starts an investigation, the only reason you would page me and Adi here now is because of the first, you had orders to protect her. Obi-wan, Qui', to find out who was trying to kill her and arrest them, but then why not, said loophole. And this explains why I find both of you on wherever the war started from as well right now. But needless to say, I knew she would take advantage of said loophole, as you got your anger out of you now finally."
"By a case of pandemonium in blaster fights with a few hundred droids here." Mace said with a bemused smile and Ki and Kit nodded in agreement to his opinion. "The last time you saw me like this was after I was forced to kill Krayne, you had to prevent this right now. And instead she does it for you, by said loophole, by a droid fight x's 10 now." he said and they nodded gently. "I take it you told us on the Raiders?" Mace said and he nodded and they nodded gently at that.
"That's not going to the darkside, that's a grief stricken blackout, if we just bothered to run a status check that never would have happened." Adi said sternly and Obi-wan went white. "You maybe his master, but he gets his orders from us, young man, seems to me if he blamed you. For that, then you're not taking responsibility for your actions, like you didn't after you walked headlong into danger, Jemba and Grelb." Mace added and he swallowed hard at that remark.
"To give a definition to where this could lead, if you never change your ways now, and before she's pregnant with my children, after a while they start seeing you as the bad guy. Because you, in a way, created a monster." he said and Mace crossed his arms. "And you don't mean me when you say that, but Master and Obi-wan, alright let me have it, why exactly?" he asked and Anakin sighed as he answered him then gently as he looked between them sternly then at this.
"It's because Padme blames them for this, if they never dealt with this sooner, I never would have crashed, further back, if you allowed me to check on mom. She would still be alive, if we stopped the mission to Korriban, Darra would still be alive. For Owen, he thought I should have been sent to stay with Padme and not gotten involved in the arrest." he said and Mace nodded. "And I agree with that, if we told you, you already had the power at your disposal right now."
"Then we could have set this to whatever happened in our new future and you're split in two." Kit said and Mace nodded. "Me too." Damon said and Ki, Tiana and Sifo nodded in agreement. "So basically if we slowed this down and talked about this first, you're split in two and your alter ego is now your twin brother turned to the darkside?" Kit said and he nodded. "Exactly, they never see this coming till it was too late, but it got worse." he said and Tiana covered her eyes.
"By actually trying assassination, he called treason, but for me and you're going to kill him when I say this, only I knew what happened here and why. That, if I never went with his purge, he was exposing us, Padme and me to the republic. We married, and she's pregnant with my children, a scandal, only I know what happened when you guys, Saesee and Agen tried it." he said and they both nodded. "Blackmail, Annie?" Tiana said and he nodded with a sigh then.
"Blackmail, I was with Mace when he tried to kill Sidious, but the trio, that's Saesee, Agen and Kit were dead, I had two choices, join with him. Or he was going to claim I was the one that killed Mace and the others and blab that I was married to Padme. Effectively turning us into a scandal, I was disgraced and she and I became outcasts for a secret marriage." he said and they went white. "That and supposedly having children out of wedlock." Mace said slowly in response.
"Do I even want to know the other reason for why everyone would see the duo as the bad guys or why Vader would see the Jedi as evil. After we talked about this over the mental com-line, after you shouted out to me right now?" Adi asked and he nodded, sighing. "Well think about it, what do your colors really say, you're a sentinel and Siri's a free spirit. I'm Mace's color, red in my heart and a guardian, by this point and you're gone, so…" he said and she nodded gently.
"Giving you the light to see your way out of said tunnel and she gave you the strength to resist the temptation, no us and you gave up. Your soul was beaten black and blue, you were exhausted, physically, mentally and emotionally. And taking this next blow emotionally, you resigned yourself to what was coming." she said and Soara felt her heart break at that. "Who of us was gone by this point, baby?" she said, praying she and Ry weren't one of said lost friends.
"You three were dead, you two and Siri, Mother, and 3/4's of my clan, Darra was killed the year before mom was, I was losing you one by one here, out of desperation. Vader lost his mind out of desperation, but trying this, I resigned myself to what was coming. Praying you could cut the tumor out of me, I was dying, my remission was over, my timer was up." he said and she wiped the tears off her face then as he said it finally then gently at that remark to Yoda then.
"Yes and I call that a very good reason to be ticked off right now, everyone that knew the real you, as a non force sensitive, your parents, Owen and Beru. Your home clan and their own parents, the Queen and her entourage now, they know and understand this. And knew you never would have given up, you would never hurt a child here, nor would you ever. In truth had gone to the darkside, unless there was no other choice." Mace said and Yoda felt his heart sink.
"No other choice, but to turn to save who I love I sold my soul to the devil, if you bothered to give me that study guide, you win, I stay me and I'm split in two." he said sternly and Yoda swallowed hard. "Humans are only human, we love, we get married, have children, that is the cycle of the force, the cycle of the life force, the smaller picture is we are only human. Why do you think Father nearly went to the Darkside himself?" he asked him and he swallowed hard.
"Master you understand the Grey Jedi code: There is no light without dark, no dark without light, there is no darkside or lightside, there is only the force. There is no good or evil, there is only balance, the balance keeps me together, basically meaning we're only human. For those of us who are human, the galaxy is not made up of Jedi and Sith, we all have good and evil. In us, but the part we choose to act on, is what's most important, that's who we are really are here now."
"Father's paraphrase really meant here you're seeing this clearly enough the two can be balanced, but dad would agree with him when I say this. But if you want me to teach the returned former Dark Jedi and Sith and use my knowledge. You better give a more convincing argument without digging that knife further into my heart. You condemned me for murdering younglings, was this punishment, for going against you in truth, have me live with the guilt."
"You ever do this to Dooku or Xanatos when they turned on you, Bruck, not withstanding he was killed by his own stupidity, Dooku because he lost Father. What about Xanatos, you ever stab them in the heart, not withstanding they died, before coming back from the darkside?" He asked and Yoda felt it slam into his heart. "Not fair that is, different that is?" he said sternly and Adi crossed her arms. "How exactly, Master, how is it different?" she said and he froze up at that.
"Because if we had any chance of changing him back, it's after he lost all four limbs and then we mentally arrest Vader and lock him up, as our version is in recovery. And Vader is walking around in the flesh after Sidious cloned him right now." Winna said and he swallowed hard, realizing he never thought of that. "As the story Obi-wan tells Light is true, Vader betrayed and nearly murdered his father, and we make it so, by having him cloned and then slam the door."
"On his mental prison shut, Anakin survived the fight, but just barely, but he's in surgery to grow back his arms and legs." Mace added and they both paled, realizing they put too much faith in the prophecy, not understanding what it really meant. "And now that Anakin gave the definition to said prophecy, and where the future leads we are doing just that. But he never turned on us, Vader did, he never killed us or destroyed the order, Vader did, not his fault."
"If I'm right my future self tried to convince him not to listen, but he was being bombarded, if we told him this he had it already. We never would have lost him at all right now, as he avenges us, as the Jedi council." Mace said sternly and he swallowed. "That was the point, but Vader betrayed us, Vader nearly killed my entire family, Vader killed the younglings. On the one hand is me: Anakin Skywalker, a Jedi and on the other is Darth Vader, so why blame me for this."
"Or was this because I'm a member of the council, and you decided to exact justice on one of your own council members?" Anakin said and he closed his mouth at that, realizing he had no excuse that he or Obi-wan could give that would not be considered as cold blooded cruelty. In the eyes of the trio, both age groups, Mace, Winna and the rest of their version of the council. "That's right Master, there is no excuse in our eyes." Damon said as he crossed his arm then.
"There is no excuse for this, we're human, but if the Sith killed our padawans, and we see the difference, his alter ego is not him, this is our version, Vader is Sidious's version. But were you ignoring the fact he was just blackmailed as an excuse to destroy the Sith. That prophecy was his, there are so many ways that prophecy could be interpreted here. And the one that Sidious chose lead to our annihilation by my hands possibly." Mace said and Yoda swallowed hard then.
"To you this is a fitting punishment, but to every non force sensitive, my family, our friends and allies, this is the cruelest thing you could ever do to me." he said and Damon pulled him into his chest and Yoda swallowed at that and the reaction. "And this directly after our time comes to an end, you want him to suffer, because you never stopped this. And when you had the chance right now, you call yourselves Jedi, this is Sith behavior." Tiana growled and he went white then.
"Adi's dead, Siri, Mace, I think that was the key, only they could stabilize his scales, but he only meant to stop him from killing him, so we tell you we had proof. He never meant for Mace to be killed and this was blackmail, I think he paged me and if he did. He was giving us a headstart to save lives, but your arrogance is the reason we lost him. You're just digging the blade deeper, till his family, the Lars, decide they want nothing to do with us?" Winna said and he swallowed.
"You really think we would condone this cruelty, you allowed him to be taken out from under your control, you allowed him to be destroyed and just when it's close. You nearly have him killed, and he's trapped living alone, not knowing his babies, his wife. If she survives that miscarriage, are alive, you are a Sith for this behavior of malice and cruelty, Master!" Tiana growled and he felt that slam into his heart in shock and the condemnation in her and Damon.
"Could be 5 to 10, even 14, trying is going to reverse their thinking, the Jedi are evil, being Grey Jedi is good, safe." Anakin said and they nodded in shock. "Look at me, this is me at my current age, but why did I try to hide a few things from you. Why was Mace scared to leave me alone with 'him', he was all I had right now, but trying to do this. You never see it coming, but you let him take me away from you and when you saw me, you tried to kill me, but when that now."
"In truth didn't work, you never, not once considered my kids could be giving me the strength to fight back, it was only a few days, if I never saw you standing right behind her. She could have convinced me to return, it ends as fast as it begins, we bide our time and everyone is alive. And instead every Jedi is put to death, aside from Vima, Damon, Tiana, Thracia even Nejaa. Now why is that exactly right now?" he asked and the duo swallowed hard at that remark then.
"Oh gods, to them, it's like you're, they're, trying to hold onto your, their, beliefs, that once someone turned, you can't change back, but it took 23 years to change back because of….?!" Damon said and he nodded. "Damon you have a family, as does Vima, Thracia, Kit, Ki, Nejaa, to you this is simple, but what are your thoughts if all of you saw me with my family. All aggressive behavior stops, my appearance changes back, and my lightsaber changes to purple finally."
"To you, and Tiana, this means what, you know I changed, and you're living on the ship, my flag ship with us, you're seeing in action how much the me you know is returning?" he asked and the trio crossed their arms. "We're Jedi, mind control never works on us, the you we knew and raised, after losing our cubs is showing again. As we lost the girls and my son to Sidious, but we get you back, the relief is more then enough, as we watch and observe for months now."
"You're so close to being freed, but you need to let go of that anger once you do and you're you again finally, you're you again, the love and trust. Of friends and family, it's working you are so close to being free, that it's a relapse, if they do not let this go." Tiana said and he nodded. "The love of a mother, or in this case aunt, who was maternal figure in training. And if Mother wasn't here?" he asked and she looked down, before looking into his eyes gently at his question then.
"And I took her place as you recovered, Shmi was gone, as was Adi, that leaves me now and, frankly, I think that Master and Obi-wan should harbor some responsibility here. They allowed you to be yanked out from under their trust and care, and what happens here. We lose you and the galaxy plunges into sum years of darkness, but is that the punishment. What you meted out for him, you're going to force him to relive the most traumatizing moments of his life here."
"You're going to have to do a better job then this to convince Damon, Nejaa, Thracia, Vima and me about getting him to be a teacher to resist that pull." she said and Yoda blanched, realizing he forgot she was also a parent then. "You forgot I have a family of my own now, and Ry' is like my 23 year old son?" she asked and he nodded and she nodded. "Annie is what my baby was like at going on 10 in truth, but like Thracia, Vima and the guys I understand perfectly here."
"Once retired from the field we are no longer Jedi, and we live out our lives, Noor already proved it, before Zan Arbor got her hands on him. In truth, is that he doesn't need that PTSD hanging over him for years to come. You're almost there, but continue with the delusion now, it's just holding you back. Are they trying to keep you like that, to give them a reason to kill you, keep you on the edge of the abyss?" Tiana asked and the duo jerked at her remark in shock then.
"Not serious you are, Tiana?!" Yoda said in shock and she said it sternly. "Why not, we said it a hundred times, this just doesn't happen all at once, the him I see here. Suffered a skim, but came back as fast as he turned right now, not getting trapped like that now. He came back, my cub padawan, but seriously right now in truth Master, being grandmaster. That has gone right to your head, do we need to relieve you of duty?" she asked and he swallowed hard then to that.
Realizing his own knights of Qui-Gon's age group had enough of his arrogance. "And now I know why Qui-Gon keeps defying you directly, this attitude of your's has every Jedi. Our and Dooku's age seeing you as beyond arrogant." Mace said sternly and he swallowed hard. "As for you young man, you remember when you defied us by actually getting involved. And in the war on Melida/Daan, when we told you this is not our fight?" Adi added sternly and Obi-wan paled.
"This attitude of your's, in both your cases will get you in trouble, but Anakin is a Master Guardian and with that. Baby, exactly what caused you, now, to be trapped for sum years now?" she asked him gently then. "That would be because Master sent him to kill me, they took it upon themselves as the supposed last of the council. To try and do their own brand of justice, supposedly thinking what I was as me, Jedi me, they trained them to think we're the same."
"The same person, I could never turn back." he told him and they nodded in shocked disgust. "Then I see why everyone outside of us saw this as though Yoda and Obi-wan created a monster right now, and why they thought of us as evil. They never, not once, thought you could change back, and till Luke pulls it off, but by then. You been thinking your entire family is dead, and then get the shock of a life time at his age of 23, Courage." Tiana said sternly and he nodded.
"You really need to let go of that pride and like you keep telling us, unlearn your old ways before it destroys you entirely, Master. And looks to me, by suffering a crushing defeat as you learn too late, that not allowing change was your own undoing." Winna said sternly and he looked down, knowing he deserved that right then, as he been training Jedi for 800 years by that point. "There thank you, that was the lesson here, their failure shoved the point home now in truth."
"You never allow change and soon it's going to destroy you in the end, trying to make up their mistakes went way too far here now. That if I found the twins sooner or she survived the miscarriage, or close call miscarriage, only she and the twins. They can change me back, as I teach future generations to resist, but the twins are my family. You think that because you're my mentor, you have rights to make decisions, on my family?" He asked and they swallowed hard.
"Padme, she was so close, but seeing you, Vader knocked me into a coma, as for my orders of checking on him, I know this was never Mace's idea, it was your's. But you ever consider he was worried, I am a Master Guardian, the girls are dead, I am fighting. As hard as I can, but red and blue, good and evil, but purple, not good or evil, but completely human. But why would Vader say he hated you, you specifically, you're like Ferus here?" he asked and Obi-wan paled then.
"Like I said, it's very dangerous putting them together, I don't think Annie can handle the close contact, I don't trust the chancellor around him." Mace said in response sternly and Anakin nodded. "That's the real translation and Padme was absolutely right, you did trust me." Anakin said and the rest of the council nodded. "We did and we do, we trust you with our lives, if this was different I wish you told us and be done with it." Ki said for all of them and he nodded then.
"Early start in that, I'm not the same padawan I used to be, Father is alive, you gave me what I needed, nothing changes I grow up to become a cub him. But a Master Guardian version to him now, your star pupil, in your eyes, everything was fine till Darra was killed. But that was only the beginning as one by one I started losing my friends and adult friends, you. Till the purge, and my heart was being beaten black and blue." he said and Ki nodded as he said it with a sigh then.
"You knew I was married, just waiting to hear the words, you also knew she was pregnant, but like me, thought I had a single child and instead they learn I have twins. But my mind and soul was an open book to you, you know everything, I never had to confide my thoughts to you." he said and Ki and Mace looked down at that. "Being this open with us, takes back the bad first impression and gives an unbelievably good second." Kit said and in response and he nodded.
"That's a different time-line in where I changed, because I was guilt ridden, Dooku, that was no self defense kill, I just committed a real murder here. And the pressure of this finally caused me to break, but first this, followed by learning my wife is pregnant with my children. Followed by this mess with being a pawn here to learn whether or not here he's our Sith. I have reason to believe, this was to make sure I change, in 'his' case." he said and the sextet nodded gently.
"Father's going to say this directly if I did change back, but did you consider I need time before I decide to teach anyone how to resist?" he asked and Yoda paled. "Did you ever consider I don't want to remember what I did that night, ever?" he asked and they swallowed hard. "You are treating me like I'm a slave still, Padme and Father freed me from those shackles. And you still see me as though I have no rights, I'm still a slave." he said and Obi-wan went white at that.
"But what if I don't want to remember and be that type of teacher, what if I don't want to be that person again, what if I can't make it up for something. Something that haunts me every day of my adult life, but until I decide, just leave it alone. But this is why Vader saw the Jedi as evil, it's all black and white to you." he said and Yoda felt that slam into his heart. "As you can see even your own human adult Jedi see this as cruel and callous." he said and they all nodded.
"Talk about cruel and unusual punishment." Soara said sternly and Yoda blanched at her remark and the disgust in her tone then. "It was a simple fix, if we told you sooner, you already had that power at your disposal, after Darra was killed or now. And you never change at all, Darn it Master, were you holding it back on purpose?" Tiana said sternly and he straightened. "If he had that power as young as he is now, he never would have turned." Damon clarified and he paled.
"To them, my family, Han, Chewie, Lando, everyone connected to us, my first mate and my crew, once I change back. Or if I spoke to Bail and convinced him now, you are relentless now, stopping at nothing, to them, it's in reverse. You're desperate to hold onto the prophecy, in thinking here, I will twist their minds. We're just trying to live our lives, when the times comes, I will do it my way, but for now, it's my kids deserve to grow up normal and happy here now."
"At 5 years old, you're dangerous, you are obsessed with finding them, that to Padme, you lied to her and she wants nothing to do with you, while at 14 years old. To them that portion of the prophecy, once the twins learn their destiny is to kill me. And if he brought about the first, they will be so sick of you and her family, Bail, bashing me now. You saying I will never change back, your thinking I brainwashed them, they will do whatever it takes to come home to me now."
"Even if that means pulling their lightsabers on both of you, they are and will be ready to stay on my flagship, and do it my way. I already killed him, isn't that enough as I start destroying the empire from within right now, I'm back as I got surgery done. And I just changed lightsaber colors, I'm completing their training, but the twins need me. And if their brother is due at the same time, you could cause a miscarriage, that happens and you think one is bad right now."
"My family is beyond strong in the force, that bitterness at both of you could cause them to turn and this galaxy will and won't stand a chance if that happens. By refusing to swallow your pride and not thinking I could ever change back right now. And you possibly causing a miscarriage, they will go to any length to stop the return here. And of the real Jedi and go Grey Jedi, and tell everyone in their clan to go Grey." he said and Yoda nodded, realizing he was making it worse.
"Master, if there is one thing learned here and Luke is going to say it to you by hiding the truth from him right now, is that the only way to maintain this relationship. Is by listening to them, for once, but in thinking you know best here right now, to them, you're beyond arrogant. But after several nights, she's pregnant with their baby brother or sister, or both, if she has twins. Again, and to her all this stress is making her sick, she can't hold anything down, even water."
"The pills are not working, she can't eat, or even drink right now, because the anxiety is making her so sick, she's losing weight. You realize this stress and anxiety could cause a miscarriage and put her in the hospital. Then whose fault is it that she is in the hospital, and the twins don't want anyone. You, or her family, or even Bail, anywhere near her, and it's definitely not me." he said and Obi-wan swallowed hard. "It's their's." Soara said sternly and Damon nodded firmly.
"Well here's a question, are they trying to protect my family, or just their insurance, to destroy the Sith, and finish the job in my case, though I stopped the real danger. Are they determined to consider execution, though I was blackmailed here, after you tried to kill him?" he asked and Obi-wan jerked in pain at his question then. "That's a good reason to relieve Obi-wan of his position on the council." Tiana said sternly and he paled, realizing his behavior was worse now.
"Just where the force is your brain exactly, it's my job to protect my family, but Sidious finds out my family survived, and he's going to do to them what he did to me. I am trying to protect my family, and you committed a crime, thinking like always you're always in the right. This is just what Owen was talking about, damn idealistic crusade, is your point of view here. The only one that matters, if not your idea, it's not used in protection?" he asked and they both swallowed.
"Do you honestly think they're not going to consider this right now in truth, in Luke's words, he's had enough of you people bashing me to last him and Leia a life time. That trying to convince you I had changed back, if it destroys my planet and nearly destroys her's. And she's pregnant, you understand matters of what stress does to a pregnant woman?" he asked and the duo felt their hearts sink. "What's it going to take to convince you?" he asked sternly and he swallowed.
"Is it going to take my actually being the one to destroy the damn thing myself, after you allowed two planets to be destroyed to convince either of you, her family and the alliance. Because everyone is going to see this that you allowed a planet to die, or two, and the senate with you, to convince yourselves I will never change back. And after she, the twins and I tried, we're not the ones deluding ourselves, you are, we tried and tried, but your pride here."
"Refuses to believe it, till it puts her in the hospital and we're offering her family refuge out of the goodness of our hearts, I send the boys to get you. And I just killed Sidious, how much more will it take to convince you in the eyes of my fleet. They all see this as the evil ones are you, you allowed a planet to die to delude yourselves?" he asked and he felt the blow slam into his heart then, realizing his pride and ignorance was the reason they lost his apprentice's planet.
"You got to be kidding, to convince themselves you will never change back, they allow one planet to be destroyed and nearly sacrifice a second, and the alliance with them?!" Damon snapped in shocked fury and Anakin nodded. "That's right, the entire council is dead, but the three of us, I changed back to my real name what will it take exactly?" he asked and the quintet crossed their arms and the duo paled, realizing their arrogance destroyed their credibility then.
"If Thracia, Vima, Tiana, Nejaa and I saw you, us living on your ship after you killed Sidious, we see you changing back, but will it take a fellow Jedi to convince them?" he said with a stern warning tone and the duo swallowed. "I don't know why we never relieved you of command of the council sooner, if he never shot me out of the window. I would have convinced him, and he would listen to me as I tell them, you, the truth, he changed back." Mace said sternly to Yoda.
"Is it going to take us as your fellow Jedi to convince you, us as in several members of what is left of the council to do so, we see with our own eyes. Him changing back, he kills Sidious, takes his place and starts destroying the Empire from within. My age group are his parents, Master, only a parent or in this case, adoptive parents can see the changes. But you made one mistake by not bothering to check on Shmi, and this mistake destroys the order right now in truth."
"What if the last has everyone thinking why should the real Jedi be brought back, it's much safer being Grey Jedi, being allowed to feel fully human." Ki said sternly and Mace nodded. "That's just the point, you have a family of your own, as do I and the quartet here in truth now. But this act of holding them against their will, and them yanking their lightsabers on Obi-wan. But that's desperate, so desperate in fact, they want their father, only he can protect them here now."
"Anakin had been protecting them from Sidious for months after they been living on the ship, but yeah they're padawans, but a padawan needs their master. But more then master, they're cubs that need daddy to protect them, they're 14 and feeling like they're 10." Damon said sternly and Yoda swallowed hard. "You just committed a case of reckless endangerment, and they're doing everything they can here to get back to the safety of our flagship right now."
"This act of kidnapping them, you're trying to protect them from the Sith, instead you outright exposed them right to Sidious!" Tiana snapped and they went white at that. "You never saw said flaw in that plan when you attempted this right now, Master, young man. Why doesn't that's surprise me, like the Queen said, you are far too reckless to see it. Thinking you know best, you're exposing the twins and their unborn sibling right to the Sith." Mace said sternly to him.
"To get away from us, really pull their lightsabers on us, after 14 years training?" he asked sadly, realizing they had enough of his thinking he was always right. "In her words, you, her family, even Bail, if I never change appearances back, along with the lightsaber. She talks and talks, but you, none of you are listening, think you know what's best for my family. Can anyone listen without seeing this as brainwashing, or are you all going to live that delusion now."
"Till it kills all of you or gets you all thrown in jail?" he said and the duo looked down. "Just like you thought training me was a bad idea, I'm dangerous, no what's dangerous. To you, is allowing your students to think for themselves in my kids generation. What's dangerous is allowing us to feel completely human, losing your power, that's dangerous. And you convinced Obi-wan of this and till it has my twins now ready to leave by force right now in truth."
"Master, before you expel me for being outspoken, and I have my memories of being a Jedi master, I can go freelance and train my family now. Would it have been better or worse that I choose now to do this as neither of you have a pawn to use now. To destroy each other until there is nothing left of either side, the Jedi die in 13 years?" he asked and Yoda looked at him, as he saw Qui-Gon as a youngling giving him a piece of his mind and he never minded that.
As he saw how much like his friend he was. "Master, just where do you think Ferus got that attitude in thinking he's always right and the one that grew up in field, is always wrong. I can see it in the sextet's eyes, being Jedi is second to being human here, being an adult. Raising a family, and yet all you know is the code, this is why Vader saw you as evil right now. To Vader he saw Ferus in your place, Obi-wan, overly critical, you never listen, don't understand."
"But why would she say that to you, what happened when you left us alone together that month, everything never said to you got told to…." he said and Mace covered his eyes at that remark then. "What can't be told to us is told to Padme, after a trauma like the raiders, that was no self defense kill, it was the Carver all over again. I get the point and you're absolutely right, if Tru and Ferus were part of the problem, they put too much faith in the code here right now."
"That Vader sees Ferus and Obi-wan as one and the same." Damon said and Obi-wan swallowed hard. "Though you grew up, you never changed all that much, you're still reflecting this you." he said pointing at the first 4 chapters of his and Qui-Gon's series and said it. "But it was never me that gave the order to kill the Jedi, it was never me that killed 4 members of the council. Or ordered the raid on the temple or assassination on Padme." he said and Yoda paled at that.
"Let me show you something." he said, as he closed his eyes and opened up his shields completely to the amount of power he truly possessed, his eyes changed to purplish blue. "Oh my gods, how much….?!" Mace said and he nodded. "That's 40 years training, there is a chain of servitude on your powers, you break that chain your powers will be fully unleashed. There is no dark or light, there is only the force." he said, as they heard 25 snaps and knew that did it now.
"There is no dark without light, no light without dark, we're Master Guardians, the balance keeps us together." he said and Adi nodded gently to him. "I have learned so much over the years, that without a doubt, it's not wrong to learn differently then certain points of view. By your leave, you decided with Master off the capitol, to allow me access to the restricted section. Finding that text on healing, you just saved my soul." he said and Mace and Kit smiled in relief.
"We, Saesee and Agen just saved you ourselves by that decision, and the young man, the man we know you to be, grew into a full master?" Kit said and he nodded to him. "Well it's like everytime I get close to telling you in what the truth is, he keeps doing something to delay it. Till you never see it coming after he revealed himself to us, that was the original time-line, this one, relived, is where you gave me what I needed already." he said and Mace smiled gently.
"Our love for you, and us indulging your love for learning saved you, as you had no need to turn to the darkside, we had what you needed all this time." Mace said, putting his hand on his shoulder and he nodded. "Be that man now Anakin, don't change, you stay good and you become everything you dreamed about, listen to him, we lose you." Adi said and he nodded. "It would have worked, if not for my intense curiosity of what is being the door the archive now."
"But this me talking to you is from another future, I'm being honest, but you are as power hungry as Sidious is here, not wanting to think here. That your ways are not the only ways, your thinking is not the only way in thinking, you been lying to everyone for years. In the time when this happens, that till the twins and Padme, see it for themselves. I'm changing back, they know it and their friends, my daughter's husband, his co pilot now and their friends, Firmus Piett."
"He's the admiral on board my ship in the other time-line, they see me changing back, to them, you're the dangerous ones." he said and Ki and Damon nodded then. "I must admit he has a very good point, we made one mistake by not stepping in like we did yesterday. Shmi, baby, was that our second mistake after not looking into those premonitions?" Winna asked and he nodded. "Master, you failed him one too many times now." Tiana said and he looked down then.
" Their team quartet never failed him, you and Obi-wan did by not considering his feelings, and when, just as we could've won this, by Padme pulling him away from the abyss. He sees Obi-wan and stays trapped like that for sum years, Sidious took him and you never put up a fight. If you just understood what it means to be human and have a family in truth. they would have told both sides sooner and we never would have lost him." Ki said and Damon nodded sternly then.
"Why did his team last the longest, well it's because at times he could confide in us, but the fear you would expel him for this violation kept them quiet, till it kills them. Yes Master, if you don't swallow your pride and leave their family alone, and they will rebel. In the way Obi-wan yanked his on Qui-Gon, out of desperation, but you're holding them against their will." Damon said sternly and Yoda shook his head. "Come to this, how could it." he said softly and Anakin nodded.
"That's right Master, you're making things worse, till it's wonder everyone never sees you as the monsters here and not him, you notice that the war is between us and Sith. But he never killed the Grey Jedi, now why is that?" he asked and he swallowed hard. "Because they're like me, the girls and Nejaa, they have families, they allow themselves to connect to normals." Damon said sternly and Anakin nodded and Yoda nodded, realizing he had to change things now then.
"I…, I never considered that at all, that's how it is in your family, just because you're this good, you want a normal cub-hood?" Obi-wan said, swallowing hard at his inclination and he nodded. "I know and this is why Father being around was the best thing for me right now, father knew there was both in me, but that's being normal. But we all have good and evil in us, but the part we choose to act on is what's important, without him I never had a normal childhood now."
"With said change, if I was from the planet these came from, Father is the key to me staying on my path forever, you already gave me what I need, I stay me." he said and Yoda nodded. "So you're saying, by these actions in trying to switch their thinking is just making things worse. Till they throw it in their faces now, your turning was their fault, not our's as we never saw this. Incoming, but their's, by going to this decision to protect them." Damon said and he nodded.
"Looking up details on the Grey Jedi, I learned that to them there is no middle ground, their viewpoint is completely human. They allow attachments, because those attachments keep them strong and for the record, what you call possession. Is really a parent getting protective of their child, a child of their siblings, a spouse or soulmate to their other half. That's what constitutes possession, my family, my master, my padawan?" he said and the duo looked down at that.
"We serve the republic and democracy yes, but we serve the will of the force, you been blind to how corrupt we became till it's too late and my son had to start anew." he said and Yoda nodded sadly at that remark. "Changes we make now and save the future we can now, by you, split in half you are and alter ego walking around in the flesh, you a Jedi?" he said and he nodded. "Yes, but remember Father at this age, he's always right, as was Padme right now in truth here."
"She said I went about it the wrong way to protect her, I don't have to change, just stay myself, but Vader was too far gone. As for a repeat, I got to skim it a little too close to make him think you guys had and then the prophecy, on our end is complete, but we got to wait till he's too old. But to put this bluntly after I had, you barely skimmed the darkside yourselves by this choice right now, but is that attachment or is it obsession right now?" he asked and Yoda sighed then.
"Is that what they're coming to see, as they hear in what caused you to become the most powerful Master Guardian and Jedi in history, Annie?" Mace asked and he nodded. "Yeah they're here till their birthdays, so they see their mother and and live our lives. Leading into the war, they are staying with their mother, Luke is with Obi-wan and me. As he sees what this war resulted in, and answering the last questions they need, my turning." he said and they nodded.
"Understand and get the point I do, so just ease back original code and allow pieces of Grey Jedi code in?" Yoda asked and Anakin nodded. "Yes, allow attachment into your life at times what looks like attachment, is really the bond of a parent to their child. Or a child to their parent, if you fell in love with another Jedi, your soulmate and our bond with you. Our mentor, we love you, but us human Jedi are only human, we can do this and still be normal in truth, Master."
"But time, patience and the love of friends and family, caught in the very early stages, say directly after being forced to kill an un-armed man, literally. You can prevent it, as we skim it a little too close, you disable Vader and slam the door shut." he said and Yoda nodded. "The Sith is the alter ego of a Jedi, split personality, it's mental illness, everything good is who we are. But everything bad was brought on by the sins, half mental, half spiritual, but the quick and easy."
"As you keep saying, is a one way ticket right to the infernal regions, but think about it, our eyes natural hue, is being fully human. But the reddish gold now, is you been infected by one thing and one thing only, if you do it on Mustafar." he said and he nodded. "Demon, you become a demon and and it's exorcising him out of you and slamming and locking the door." Obi-wan said in understanding and he nodded and they both nodded as Yoda said it gently to him then.
"Been listening to me way too much, you have lately now, so real trick that is, there's more then thought we did about the dangers. A demon now, Palpatine is, and even my power, can not match him, it can, too old I am, your father's age group with me?" he asked and he nodded. "Yes Master that's it exactly, Father's age group was barring 60, they're too old and he was late 70's, in 36 years my powers surpass all of you, fully human." he said and he nodded gently.
"These say we're 60, at our current age, but in reality, we're 46, borderline 47, in 13 years we're nearly 60." Adi said sternly and Mace nodded in agreement. "Yeah evidently, they never knew, pre something, those stories are all fodder now, but Palpatine's mine, you're too old. I got 60 years on him, and I'm fully human, my powers will quintuple your's, by my prime now. We just need to weaken my alter ego, and you physically damage 'him'." he said and Mace nodded then.
"And Vader?" he asked and Anakin crossed his arms. "Luke is dealing with him, but at times Youth does have it's advantages right now, the speed and strength come in handy. But we're not younglings anymore and his try is and was the beginning of his trials now in truth. Unexpected notation, his trial by flesh was his first attempt with me." he said and Yoda nodded. "Issues there are of being expert in the Sith and Darkside now, I see, but understand I do, Padawan."
"As said I did, the quick and easy path is dangerous, harder and more challenging, and stay good you do, as such, must increase training load as grow, you do, in my eyes. So as to that, increase every 6 weeks to make it harder and more challenging we will now. But get to see Shmi and your friends and family every other month and constant contact with them and the queen. That you will have now, Annie." he said and Anakin nodded smiling gently as he went further.
"Get to see your mother and friends in 6 months and see them every month after that and constant contact, keeping in touch them and with the queen, you will now. Of your peers, only you have clear memories, but made academy for gifted young padawans. Order will be now, my decision final, it is, Jedi quartet teams are adopted family now when in training. But squadron, team and family, once on flight team now." he said and Anakin bowed his head gently to him.
"I understand Master and thank you, these changes are instrumental in changing the future of the order, but if not you, and my grandchildren got their own version of you. But we're close to finding Ikrit, I find him, before my youngest is born, he can take your spot. And things stay like they are, since I came into it forever, as for my oldest grandson now in truth. He's got a lot to learn, but I was like a cub version of Father in your eyes now." he said and Yoda nodded smiling.
"Indeed, though gone, my memory and Yaddle's memory, lives on in him, we do now, and you and Obi-wan and your father's age groups. Train the next generation's, my padawan, but star pupil and expert on the darkside, you are now, my padawan. Understand I do, that traumatizing this will be, but need this information, we do to prevent another purge, we do." he said and Anakin nodded as Yoda pressed his forehead to his and he closed his eyes gently then.
