The New Ending is updated Chapter 40 - A Fond Farewell.
Epilogue - A Legacy of the Force
Some say that there is no death, there is only the Force where there are others who would like to believe that with the Force there is no death.
The reality is that the Force is reality, it is all and it is nothing. It is as much the stars as the darkness between them.
Rey's parents were not a part of the visible threads of this fabric, and yet, they remained as the light from dead stars, warmth and light provided eons after existence, time long since passing them by.
Grandmaster Rey Palpatine's first Jedi was Princess Leia Organa. Rey became the teacher of the would-have-been Rebel General who made her believe that the galaxy was bigger than any darkness could overcome. Leia being the hurricane of this story to Rey's butterfly. Leader of the Jedi Order of Serreno, Master Obi-Wan Kenobi's first daughter was named Reyna Amidala Kenobi.
As to the story of how Queen Padme Naberrie Amidala found herself briefly married to a Sith Lord to save her planet from Darth Sidious's spite, post-decapitation, and bore, to her great worry, twin Skywalker children, and then was subsequently rescued by Master Qui-Gon Jinn who used a ploy of faking his own death.
It is important at this moment to say that Qui-Gon used a rather clever line in answer to Padme saying in the midst of escaping her palace on Mustafar, "The Queen would not approve of your sacrifice." To which Qui-Gon would have responded with the line this entire fanfiction was leading up to, with a cheeky smile on a suspiciously smooth face, "The queen does not need to know." All of that other story being a part of an epic series of events that had a Mandalorian army teaming up with a massive Jedi strike team, as well as Dathomirians, to defeat a Sith Dyad. Ending on Darth Vader getting slain by his trusted advisor, (Qui-Gon Jinn/Anakin redemption death arch). Well, that is another story ;D And one that ended with Obi-Wan and Padme finding each other again, but this time, living happily ever after with long and fulfilling (if chaotic and infuriating to everyone who ever opposed them) lives.
For Mandalorian Ahsano Kenobi and Clone Ishaan Palpatine, they could not have been more proud of their daughter nor the song the Force chose to sing.
End of Act II: Daughter of a Clone
So if you go back to Chapter 40 - A Fond Farewell you will find this new ending to this fic before Anakin shows up. The last few chapters are basically original work that while well received by a dear few has been ill-received by a great many more. This fic is extremely taxing to write due to the amount of work it takes to plot and adapt each chapter that has no canonical road map. While still fun, the more I read into pre-era New Hope, the more depressed I get about what Disney did in the Rey trilogy. The next time I read over the entire fic again I will post a final outtake chapter that has the would have been direction of the plot, the crack skits, and the draft of the epilouge. I sincerely apologize to those who honestly liked this fic, however, in a couple of years from now I will hopefully get my own original work published that will have this style of story telling. Please enjoy my other Time Travel fics.
For the Mandos I promised, much of their plot from this story will reappear in Significant Brain Damage.
Significant Brain Damage -
Luke Skywalker finds himself in the past as Anakin Skywalker. Obi-Wan finds himself retraining his old apprentice who has permanent amnesia while also taking on Anakin's Padawan, being a General, a Council member -during a Galactic Civil War, and fighting for a Republic he's beginning to lose faith in. Clone Wars, no slash, no paradox, no easy fix it. [MANDO CENTRIC FIC]
The Kenobi Scandal -
One moment they are speeding on their way to Mos Eisley, only to be hit by a Force instigated sandstorm and the next thing Ben Kenobi knows Luke can't find the droids. What's a Jedi to do when he finds himself back before the fall of the Republic? Come up with a cover story more scandalous than time travel: Luke, this is Anakin Skywalker. Anakin, this is my son, Luke Kenobi. [My Fix-it story.]
The Making of Mavericks -
Master Obi-Wan Kenobi couldn't let her walk out into the galaxy without a lifeline. With Commander Cody and Captain Rex at his side, Obi-Wan tries to give Ahsoka some well meant advice. But the Force was listening and decided these four souls needed to blaze a better path. With all that has happened to them, waking up twenty-five years in the past shouldn't be a big deal, right? [Qui-Gon, Dooku, Sifo-Dyas, Ahsoka, Obi-Wan, Cody, and Rex - Basically the character development from the Queen Does not Need to Know in a drama/character centric fic]
Return of the Father -
Mark Hamill needed a better trilogy sequel, I needed a better prequel, and Anakin Skywalker needed a loving father. As the Whills would have it, Luke Skywalker finds that the Force's idea of time travel involves shuffling the cards of his life. Luke Lars truly was no one from nowhere, but his part to play in the galaxy was far greater than being a Jedi or an outstanding pilot. [Is a short fic somewhat of a one-shot-esque plot.]
The Darkness Between the Stars -
What if I told you that Dooku became a Sith but he choose not to murder his old best friend. Sifo-Dyas was around to handle Anakin's visions and Padme became most insistent on finding her own kriffing assassin. What will become of a fated meeting on Geonosis if it occurred on Kamino? And why would Dooku pass up the opportunity to have not one but two armies? The Republic will fall, the only question is who or what will fill the void? A re-imaging of the Attack of the Clones and the Clones Wars if Obi-Wan had joined Dooku. AU. Not, shockingly, a time travel. Obi-dalla [Coming Soon]
