Anakin then felt something in his heart that had been missing for a long time. He felt Ahsoka's love. It was more than it ever was before; it was a physical feeling. He remembered telling her a long time ago that revenge was wrong, that only a coward used revenge to kill.
On a mission they had in the Outer Rim, Anakin and Ahsoka ran into a slave trading camp. Enraged due to his life as a slave that eventually got his mother killed, Anakin began to attack the traders. Ahsoka found him in a house about ready to kill the leader of the group.
"Why are you doing this master? I know you are trying to get revenge on these men, but it isn't their fault! They had nothing to do with you and your mother!" Ahsoka yelled.
"I don't care, they are slaving scum and deserve everything that I am going to do them!" Anakin shouted back, inching his blade closer to the slave trader.
"Anakin, STOP!" Ahsoka screamed, lunging towards her master. She wrapped herself around him and just hugged him.
"Ahoska I…"
"No, Anakin, don't do this!" she said, starting to cry.
Anakin dropped his lightsaber and let the slaver go. He wrapped his arms around Ahsoka,
"I am so sorry. I was going against what I taught you about revenge. Worst of all, I scared you." He said, tears welling up in his eyes. They stood in the house for a few minutes, hugging and crying.
"Anakin I want you to always remember this. If anything were to happen to me, I don't ever want you to seek revenge." Ahsoka finally said, backing up and wiping her tears away.
"Don't worry Snips, I will." Anakin replied with a smile.
Remembering his promise to Ahsoka those couple of years ago, Anakin cleared his mind of all darkness and revenge. He thought only of his love for his friends and family, and how he needed to stop the threat of Palpatine from ruining their lives. He brought his lightsaber back to a full position and pushed with all of his might. His blade found its mark in the center of Palpatine's chest. The Sith lord dropped his lightsabers, Obi-Wan pushed his blade into Palpatine's stomach, making the Sith lord fall to his knees. Yoda stood in front of the dying Sith;
"Short your reign has been, Emporer. Failed you have. Help to rebuild the Republic, we will."
"You will only bring war and death to your precious Republic, I would have saved it!" Palpatine said, slowly losing his breath.
The Jedi sheathed their blades and began to leave the Sith to die. As they walked away, with one last burst, Palpatine shot lightning at the three Jedi. Yoda stopped the lightning with his lightsaber and jumped towards Palpatine,
"Finished you are." He said, decapitating the Sith. "Go to the senate, we must. Give them this information we will." Yoda said, walking out of the office.
