The mysterious force user fights about as well as Anakin and Ashoka can but there's some stuff lacking, almost as if his training was rushed and unfinished but just enough for him to continue on.
"Who exactly are you?" Anakin asks the stranger as they push forward into the factory.
"I'd prefer to talk after we win the battle." The stranger throws his saber at a sniper droid, cutting it in half. The lightsaber circles back around and the stranger catches it.
Captain Rex catches up with the trio and throws some grenades. "What's the plan?"
Anakin starts to speak "We need to cont-"
"Hand me some grenades and get out of my way." The stranger grabs some grenades from Rex through the force, not really trusting any of the clones. Before anyone could protest, the stranger force leaps over the droids and tosses the grenades down a ventilation shaft. "I suggest falling back. Like now." He says.
Rex motions for his troops to fall back out of the factory as the grenades start to explode. Within moments the fire backs up, destroying the machines creating the droids and starts crumbling the walls. As they make their escape the building is literally trying to bury them alive, but everyone makes it out alive.
"What was that? You could've killed us!" Anakin says to the stranger as they catch their breath.
"But did we die?!" The stranger responds with a cocky smirk which leads to Ashoka chuckling.
"He seems to have a lot in common with you Master." Ashoka smirks at Anakin.
"Not now Snips." Anakin glares at Ashoka which leads to her rolling her eyes.
"Let's get to my ship. And then we can talk." The stranger says walking towards where the Falcon ended up landing.
"What makes you think we're going anywhere with you?" Anakin glares at the stranger.
"Because you're curious. That's who you are. And you won't find out anything from me out here. So I suggest you follow me. Alone." The stranger says.
"Not without a couple of clones." Anakin says.
"You may bring ONE and only ONE. Make it someone you trust completely." The stranger says.
"Come along Rex. Let's see what this guy has got to say." Anakin says as the four of them make their way to the falcon.
When they board the stranger turns around. "My name is Luke." He pauses and thinks for a moment. "Luke Skywalker."
"Skywalker? Are you trying to tell me we are related? Like you're my long lost brother or something?" Anakin says getting annoyed.
"No… I'm the kid that my mother, her name is Padme, gave birth to. I am your son. I came from the future to give a warning." Luke says pulling a Jedi Holocron out of his bag. "So you don't think I'm trying to deceive you, please, open this yourself." He points to Ashoka.
Ashoka kneels and concentrates as the holocron opens and a hologram of Obi-Wan comes up looking grave.
"This is Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. I regret to report that both our Jedi Order and the Republic have fallen, with the dark shadow of the Empire rising to take their place. This message is a warning and reminder to any surviving Jedi; Trust in the Force. Do not return to the temple, that time is past. And our future, is uncertain. We will each be challenged, our trust, our faith, our friendships, but we must persevere. And in time, a new hope will emerge."
The hologram fades. "What happened? You can't forge a holocron so are you telling me the Republic and the Jedi fall? How?" Anakin says.
"Well.. Three people are involved in direct causation as they worked to do it. Darth Sidious, whom you know as Chancellor Palpatine, along with the clones and Darth Vader." Luke says.
"Whoa whoa whoa. The Clones would never betray the Republic!" Captain Rex jumps in.
"Not of their own free will. Kaminoans were tricked. They thought the jedi asked them to do it in case there was a rogue Jedi. Whom they thought was the Jedi ordering everything is actually Count Dooku. Anyway, each and every clone has an inhibitor chip, and when given a specific order, not going to say it so I don't trigger Rex's, but it's order 65 + 1." Luke says "When that order is given, they're forced to gun down their Jedi leaders as the chips makes them see the Jedi as traitors to the Republic."
"And who is this Darth Vader? I never heard of him." Ashoka says trying to take in everything.
"You know his old name when he was a Jedi." Luke said.
"Wait, this guy betrayed his own people?! Who is this villain?" Anakin growls.
"That villain…. Is you." Luke looks at Anakin as his face turns to shock.
"What? That can't be! You must be mistaken." Anakin growls.
"I'm afraid I'm not. For one, you told me as much after you cut my hand off. You started having force visions of your wife, Padme, dying in child birth. You couldn't find an answer until Darth Sidious offered you one, but it required joining him. You didn't at first and reported him to Master Windu. Windu defeated him and was about to kill him, but in desperation, you cut Windu's hand off and Sidious electrocuted him through a window." Luke says.
"For one, thanks for revealing my secret to Rex and my padawan. Second, there's no way I turned to the dark side of the force." Anakin growls.
Luke sighs. "I was afraid you wouldn't believe me. Here." Luke puts down another holocron. "You wanna do the honors this time?"
Anakin nods and concentrates, opening the holocron. This one has a security footage of the temple. We can see clones marching in and open fire on the Jedi masters. On another angle, we see the younglings hiding in the training room when Anakin comes into view.
"Master Skywalker" One of the kids say "There are to many of them. What do we do sir?"
Anakin ignites his lightsaber and the footage shows as Anakin starts attacking and killing the younglings.
After that is completed the footage ends and the holocron closes.
