Chapter 11

Ok, now for an excellent chapter, this is the Chapter where the war between the Balancers and the Traditionalist begin!

The Council was now on their first meeting after the cleanup of the Republic, things were going good and everyone thought that there were going to be no wars anymore.

If only they knew about the Balancers and the Traditionalists.

The Jedi Order was splitting over the pressure of the two groups that had battled for many years. It would start all now. All over again.

Yoda felt the sun-warmed, metal edge of his council chair, the feel was relishing, but the feeling wasn't complete since Yoda could feel darkness coming through the split in the Order.

Mace Windu had bought them all to the Council Meeting. The reason was not told, and that worried Yoda, and Anakin, who was also in the Council.

"I bought you all here, to tell you all something!" Mace exclaimed as he stood up from the Council Chair, his feet stepping forward, then he turned to Yoda "I am aware that the Balancers are rising, are you part of it?"

Every Council Member was murmuring in confusion or contentment. Anakin was aware of Yoda's fears at that second, instinctively, Anakin activated and pointed his new, blue lightsaber blade at the Dark-Skinned Jedi Master.

"Part of the Balancers, we are!" Yoda exclaimed, pointing his lightsaber at Mace Windu

Every Council Member except for Yoda, Mace and Anakin coiled in surprise. A few other council members activated their lightsabers, pointing them at different Jedi

At the end, Anakin Skywalker was pointing his lightsaber at Ki-Adi Mundi, who was pointing it at Shaak Ti, who was pointing it at Mace Windu, who was pointing it at Yoda. The rest of the Council members were stunned. All of the members with their lightsabers went out of the chambers, at full view of the other Jedi. More Jedi and Padawans activated their weapons at the line.

"So, this is a standoff now!" Mace Windu exclaimed

At that moment, everyone pointing their lightsabers were confused, how would they know when to fight. Adenan, who pointed his lightsaber at Ki-Adi, sensed all their confusion over that question and came up with something

"What about, first sound and then fight?" Adenan asked

"Good Idea!" Anakin exclaimed

"Deal!" Mace boomed

More Jedi came in, Balancers pointing their lightsabers at Traditionalists and vice versa. Apparently, there were equal number of all the Balancers and Traditionalists. And they figured out each other. There was now an air of suspense around the Council Chambers.

The suspense was truly agonising, no one spoke a word and didn't even move from where they were. For what seemed like hours, The Chancellor Amidala came into the room, frowning at what she saw.

"What are you doing?" Padmé shouted, hating all the Jedi against each other

That was their cue, all of them fought with what they got. It was a huge lightsaber duel between the Split Order. There were glowing colours everywhere. Mace Windu used his own form to catch the Balancers off guard, who crowded near the exit.

"So, any suggestions?" Master Chi, who was also in the crowd, asked

"Yeah! Retreat?" Adenan asked

"We're not retreating!" Anakin exclaimed

Then all the Traditionalists and anyone who disliked even one Balancers crowded together, showing the Balancers that this could not be one

"Ok… we retreat!" Anakin smiled, nervous

"RUUUNNN!" Adenan exclaimed as all the Balancers ran for their lives, out of the temple almost all of them were raised in

"You are all kicked out of the Republic! All of you are traitors!" Mace screamed

Anakin stopped from where he was, the first step of the exit stairs, and turned at Mace, his face was full of sweat. He felt his mechanical hand as he smiled.

"You forgot one thing!" Anakin exclaimed

"What?" Mace asked

"I still control all the Clones!" Anakin answered back as he ran along with all the other Balancers

Padmé was very worried for all the Balancers, the Jedi that defeated the Sith, and especially, her husband. Mace misinterpreted her feelings and went close to her, but not too close due to the attachment rule.

"It's okay, these traitors will be executed for their crimes!" Mace exclaimed

"That's not what I'm worried about" Padmé mumbled

The run to the speeder lot was agonisingly tiring, and all the Balancers were panting when their got there, Anakin put all the Balancers in a Republic Gunship, they all took a rest when they got in. Anakin and Adenan were piloting the gunship.

"Where are we going now?" Adenan asked

"The Military Base, I am capable of cutting Clone Support from the Traditionalists!" Anakin exclaimed

The Gunship sped to the Military Base, the landscape of Coruscant was normal as ever, the only difference was that there was no air of darkness, only a conflicting light. The Gunship landed at the base, there were a lot of clones and buildings, there were lots of Clone Transports going around. Anakin was welcomed by the Clones.

Anakin went to the Terminal, where there were many Clones on computers, tracking ships, monitoring landings and what they were going to do, announce large-scale orders.

"Sadly I will have to kill all the non-Balancers. Not just Traditionalists, but I can't be more specific than what I will" Anakin mumbled as a Clone came to him.

"General Skywalker, what's your orders?" The Clone asked

Anakin showed all the Balancers to the Clone "Execute Order 66 on every Jedi except the ones with me! But I want Obi-Wan Kenobi alive!"

"Yes Sir!" The Clone exclaimed

A few minutes later, all the Clones were turned against the non-Balancers, to kill all of the non-Balancers except for Obi-Wan, who was to be arrested and interrogated by Anakin himself, now this war was tipped to the Balancers right before it started.

But the Balancers were blissfully unaware that the Traditionalists were trying to counter the plot. Since they heard of the Order 66 being re-executed and the Jedi decided to counter it by making the newer Clones be with the Traditionalists.

It was in the watery planet of Kamino where the negotiations took place. Mace Windu made an Order 70 to the newer Clones.

"Now, Anakin Skywalker, you turned the old Clones against us, we now rule the entire Clone Sector!" Mace gleed evilly, unaware that the Traditionalists were turning to the Dark Side of the Force

I'll now end the chapter here, or am I? Just kidding, I am! NEXT CHAPTER: THE SECOND BATTLE OF CHAMETA
