Chapter 28
Anakin, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, Rex and Adenan were in Onderon, talking to each other
"But master, isn't Dooku a dangerous enemy?" Ahsoka asked
"Yes Snips, but I want to redeem Dooku, I can do it!" Anakin exclaimed as the other rebels finished discussing
"That's a wise choice Anakin" Obi-Wan was impressed
"Master Skywalker, Ahsoka, All the Rebels have agreed to use weapons that only affect droids, so what are you going to use?" Lux asked them
"I knew these would come in useful someday!" Anakin exclaimed as he gave two small lightsabers to Ahsoka
"What are these?" Ahsoka asked
"Stun lightsabers. Stuns living targets, and deactivates droids" Anakin told Ahsoka
"Thanks! But pale sky blue isn't my colour" Ahsoka commented
"I couldn't make any other colour" Anakin told Ahsoka
"Pretty nice" Lux complimented
"Could we get one?" Adenan asked
"Sorry, I only had three" Anakin apologised
Anakin thanked Lux, and joined the others, who were talking about their latest plans. Meanwhile, King Rash was in his palace, and ordered the guards to bring his predecessor. He was called King Ramsis Dendup, Rash actually usurped his position during the beginnings of the Clone Wars, when Anakin Skywalker was still Padawan to Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Separatists won every battle. The guards came in with Dendup.
"There has been Rebels in this area, I am wondering if you were the one who commisioned them" Rash told Dendup
"I never heard of the Rebels, how could I if I have been spending years in a cell" Dendup objected
"There is no other explanation!" Rash exclaimed
"There is, this war was triggered by your submission to the Separatists, end the Separatist occupation, and the Rebellion will stop" Dendup advised
"Take him away!" Rash ordered
The Rebels have caused the people of Onderon to be fearful of them. So, the Rebels were a bit confused. The Rebels were plotting future strategies
"So, the Republic has cut off Material Support?" Adenan asked
"Yeah, but it's okay Adenan, Me and Ahsoka are used to it" Anakin shrugged
"Yeah, but I think you two should stay here to help the Onderonians" Obi-Wan suggested
"And we will keep fighting!" Anakin exclaimed
"The people are afraid of you guys" Obi-Wan noted
"Why are they afraid of us?" Lux asked
"We didn't do anything to them" Saw said
"They are afraid of us because they are afraid of will we not succeed" Steela exclaimed to all of them
"So, we will need to show everyone how strong we are!" Ahsoka exclaimed
"What about you guys?" Lux asked
"We will leave, to report to the Republic" Rex answered
"Ok, let's do that" as Anakin put those words, Obi-Wan, Adenan and Rex left "Now, what are our plans?"
Lux suggested blowing the power station, but after a few objection about how the battle droids run independently and how the defences will be too strong, all of them agreed. Now, it was up to Saw to get details. He did so, and it was found out that the defences are too fortified, and they planned to hijack a tank when it comes. Anakin, Ahsoka, Lux and Steela were the ones to go
"Snipe em!" Anakin ordered Steela, who sniper shot the droids, but others noticed tried to shoot them, and called for reinforcements
The reinforcements were a few droidekas, but Anakin and his apprentice successfully deactivated them, then, their wanted tank came along, all of them activated their weapons. They all fought, and they killed the take escorts, Lux and Steela took the tank, Steela started it up, Lux tried to shoot the blast, but battle droids were trying to shoot them, Anakin and Ahsoka held them off with their stunsabers. Lux shot the blast, and succeeded. They all ran off from the scene. When they got back, they all were congratulating them.
"I vote Steela as our leader!" A woman rebel named Dono exclaimed suddenly
The vote for Steela was a majority, making Saw lose his position as leader. He saddened a bit by that, but congratulated Steela. For the next few days, the Rebels did what they could, but then, Dono came with grave news that King Dendup was going to get executed for creating the rebellion, crimes he did not commit.
"We must rescue him!" Anakin exclaimed
"Yes Master Skywalker, we must! I suggest doing it at the execution to rally the people's trust!" Steela exclaimed
"No!" Saw objected "The Separatists are expecting us to do exactly that!"
"But Saw! You can't do that alone!" Steela tried to keep him
"No Steela, I will do this!" Saw exclaimed as he left
"Why are you so concerned of him?" Lux asked
"He is… my brother" Steela revealed "Dono, go spy on him!"
Saw gone to the prison building, Dono was following him., Saw activated a hook, and went into the building's open roofs, and saw the ex-king
"What are you doing here?" He asked
"I am here to rescue you! Our true king!" Saw answered
"Why would you do that? I am not your king, Rash is" Dendup objected the rescue
"But our Rebellion is growing, and we have the backing of the Jedi!" Saw exclaimed
"*Gasp* Jedi! I have been waiting for this for a long time, lets go!" Dendup exclaimed as red shields got over them "One way shields!"
Rash now scheduled to execute both of them, and so, it was up to the Man and Girl of Qui-Gon's Order and the Onderon Rebels to rescue Saw and Dendup.
I stopped here to make it more dramatic, and by the way, just to say, I actually planned Fall of the Chosen One months before Resurrection of the Father. I just wrote this one right after I planned it. NEXT CHAPTER: THE FINAL BATTLE
