"THE CHANCELLOR HAS BEEN KIDNAPPED"
Crowds of people began to panic as they saw the news projected in the sky.
Council POV
"The chancellor and Anakin have been taken by maul" Mace reported
"Palpatine's plan this must have been" Yoda replied
"How did Maul beat Skywalker?" Plo asked
"Perhaps assistance he had from palaptine" Yoda commented
The council sat in thought for a moment.
Dooku POV
Dooku was on Corruscant and placed a tracking device on Mauls ship before Maul escaped. He didn't dare tail them in case Sidious got suspicious, but he did keep an eye on mauls location with the tracker. They had entered the mustafar system.
Oh no
He still had the comm channel for the council and made contact. He suspected Skywalker had already told the council that he was a sith lord, so theres no point trying to lie to them.
Council POV
"We are receiving an incoming transmission from Dooku" Mundi said
"put it through" Mace answered
"This is count Dooku. I know where Skywalker is" Dooku said
"Why should we trust anything you say Dooku"
"I promised to help him, and so I am. They are on Mustafar" Dooku replied
Sidious POV
Palpatine took on his palpatine persona and went to the cell Anakin was held in.
"You have been a real pain for me boy. You have bested my best agents and attempted to kill an ally of mine. I must say I am impressed"
"Ill take that as a complement" Anakin said with a hint of anger.
ANAKIN POV
Anakin then realised where they were. He could sense the lifeless and hate-filled lava lakes of mustafar. He hjad become very accustomed to the planet during his tenure as Vader. However, he also felt a rush of more painful emotions. Images flashed through his mind and voices drowned his surroundings.
" YOU WERE MY BROTHER ANAKIN"
"ANI COME BACK I LOVE YOU"
'LIAR"
Palpatine POV
Palpatine looked down at the child and could feel the pain radiating from him.
This was a child who had experienced more pain than a thousand men in a lifetime. There is certainly more to this being than let out.
"I feel your pain boy, do not hold it it. Let it control you"
ANAKIN POV
Anakin knew better and that he shouldn't follow sidious advide, but, he just wanted toi let it all go. the pain was too much, it would be so much easier to just let go. Let everything go. The jedi, the sith, the force. All of it. The emotions began to overpower his mind and thoughs started seeping out of his defenses.
SIDIOUS POV
Sidious continued to look down at the struggling child and smirked. He felt a jab at his mind, and again, and more. After a moment of discomfort his mind began to divert from the current surroundings.
His surroundings began to change and he found himself gazinf upon a molten red river. A quick glance over he saw 2 rafts approaching him with lightsbaers swinging at each other. He couldn't make out who it was just yet. But he did begin to hear a voice
"... Chancellor Palpatine is evil"
"From my point of view the Jedi are evil"
"WELL THEN YOU ARE LOST"
Sidious' face curled at his name being mentioned.
The duel continued until One of the duelists lept onto the river bank.
"ITS OVER ANAKIN I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND"
"YOU UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER"
"DON'T TRY IT"
Anakin lept and was cut down. Palpatine watched until The one still standing left, and by that point sidious had determined the winner to be Anakins master Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Palptine then froze as he saw himself followed by a couple of clones approaching the fallen Jedi. Sidious knelt beside Vader.
"He's still alive. Get a medical capsule immediatley"
Sidious froze at the sight of his future self. He also noticed the wrinkled face and took some disgust in it.
And at that Sidious was transported back to the cell
This feels like no vision. This must be a memory. Skywalker must have experienced all of this and somehow came back to this time.
ANAKIN POV
"NO!" Anakin screamed. he knew one of his memories had leaked and Sidious had seen it
"Become my apprentice again. Your power is unrivalled. You could become the most powerful being to ever exist."
"NEVERRRR" Anakin cried with all his strength. Tears now drowning his face
Palpatine only smirked before reaching his hand out anmd easily breaking through his now fragile defences
He was transported to a new scene
"Now young Skywalker. You will die"
Lighting left sidious hands and struck a boy on the ground
"Father please:" the boy pleaded
The lightining continued and the boys pleas grew louder.
Besides sidious was a man in dark amour and sidiuous could work out his identity as Anakin due to the boy on the ground being called skywalker and calling out father, as well as the force pressence that surrounded him was similar to that he felt on mustafar
Suddenly the armoured figure grasped palpatine and carried him to a reactor shaft before tossing him.
The boy dragged vader through to a shuttle before dropping him.
...
"You were right about me. Tell your sister yoou weeerre righhtt" (intentional mis-spelling)
Anakin then died
Sidious was brought back to mustafar.
Anakin as upright and pierced into sidious' eyes. He also held sidious's lightsaber ignited.
"YOU WILL DIE AGAIN. NOT IN 30 YEARS. NOW"
"Gooood. Let the hate flow through you. Strike me down with all of your hate"
