Chapter 2 Preparations
"Anakin, this plan of yours is very strange and besides it would be very difficult to accomplish" Padme Amidala disagreed with her husband since she did not like his idea.
"Oh, common, if we all work together we can accomplish it. It is not as difficult as it sounds."
"General, what if others will learn about the plan?" Captain Rex was little worried
"Don't worry Rex, no one will learn anything. The tactical advantage is on our side. We will reform the Galaxy on what would be best for it"
"I see logic in General Skywalker's plan, however it is too risky. And I think we should include more members into our little committee."
"Not now. We do not need to grow in number so that the Chancellor or Jedi get suspicious. You all got your instructions, please proceed with them and the plan should work. Now I will construct a device which we discussed about. Then, I will proceed with my plan."
"Good luck General."
"You too Commander Rex. So now Padme will go to the Senate to work with the heads of the loyalist committee regarding on what we discussed earlier. Commander Rex with the rest of legion 501 will be stationed near the Temple for known reasons. Admiral Yalaren will stay in the orbit and Ahsoka will go to the Temple. I will go to see Obi Wan"
"May the Force be with you, Anakin"
"May the Force be with us all."
Anakin and company flew to Coruscant to three destinations. Padme Amidala called Bail and Mothma to make a conference to talk about Anakin's plan; Rex was going to the Barracks with the rest of legion 501 and the two Jedi were now heading towards the Temple.
Anakin left Ahsoka in the room and headed to see Obi Wan. He really wanted to see his former Master and besides he knew that he was supposed to meet Obi Wan since he saw it in his vision. Anakin went to the Archives and saw his former Master sitting there and reading information from data pads.
"Hello Obi Wan"
"Anakin, what are you doing here?"
"I just came to make a visit. Anyway, how is the reading?"
"It's good. By the way Anakin, I just remembered that the Chancellor requested to see you"
"Did he tell why?"
"No and this is very strange."
Anakin left Obi Wan and went to see the Chancellor. He knew that this was supposed to happen and he knew everything what the Chancellor would say. However, he pretended that he did not have that knowledge.
Anakin reached Palpatine's office and went in there. The Chancellor/ Darth Sidious was sitting at his desk doing some work. He saw the young Jedi appear in his office and greeted him.
"Hello Chancellor, did you call me?"
"Yes I did. I wished to speak to you. I need your help, son. I sense that the Jedi do not trust me. Therefore I would like you to become my personal representative on the Jedi Council"
"They will not go with this. They elect their own members"
"Don't worry Anakin, they need you more than you imagine"
"Yes, I know that. And I know that your days are almost over. Soon you would be lying on pavement, covered in blood, being a meal for birds. But for know I will play your game" Anakin thought.
Anakin soon reported to the Council that the Chancellor appointed him to be Jedi representative. The eleven Council members discussed this and then Mace announced.
"You may sit on the Council but we do not grant you the rank of Master"
"Thank you Masters, it is a Great honor to be on this Council."
Anakin took his seat and he sensed that all Jedi in the room including Yoda were shocked at his behavior. "O, don't worry; I will shock you even more. Soon, you will all see what Anakin Skywalker can do"
Anakin soon went to his room and saw Ahsoka sitting there being bored. As her Master returned she got relieved, since it was quite boring to sit alone in the room.
"Ahsoka, the plan has started. Soon we will accomplish our goal."
Ahsoka smiled since she liked Anakin's plan. Soon everything will turn out very nice and Anakin's vision of how things should be would become reality.
