Chapter 5:
The Sith Legend/The Set-Up
As Anakin was walking toward the opera room of the Senate floor, a hand came over him and he was dragged to a wall. Anakin struggled, tried to reach for his lightsaber. "Quiet! I'm a friend." The man released the hand. Anakin turned and faced his attacker, "Mr. Worf? What are you doing here?" Worf motioned Anakin to be quiet. "Ambassador Spock sent me. This may be the best time to arrest him. He may know what went on in the Council. We may not have another chance. Now, go. I'll be right behind you." Worf released him. Anakin straightened his cloak and continued his walk to the opera room.
Anakin approaches the Chancellor's seat. "You wanted to see me, Chancellor?" "Yes, Anakin come closer, I have good news." He tells of rumors of Grievous. Chancellor Palpatine motioned Anakin to sit and dismissed his aides. Chancellor than began probing his mind. "The Council is plotting to kill me." He tells Anakin of the similarities of the Sith and the Jedi, and tells of the legend of Darth Plageuis the Wise. "Darth Plageius the Wise was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise, he can use the Force to convince the midi-chlorians to create life. He has such a knowledge of the Dark Side, he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying." Worf started to get closer and wait for the right time. "The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural." Palpatine continued his story. He mentioned the apprentice of Plagueis and of Plagueis' demise." Anakin asked the key question: "Is it possible to learn this power?" Palpatine answered, "Not from a Jedi." Then Palpatine froze, and a face appeared, "And not today," Worf said Then Worf knocked out Palpatine. "Go, now!" Worf got his combadge and signaled the Enterprise. "Worf to Bridge, now!" Worf dematerialized. Anakin went back to the Council chambers and told the remaining Jedi what had happened.
A thorough investigation was conducted and Spock interrogated Palpatine, who's revealed as Sidious. After two trials, Sidious is killed by a firing squad. Anakin achieves the rank of Master. The children are born and the war is over.
