Chapter 12

Wow. Time flies, at this rate, I wonder when will I finish this story, not that I hate it, I love this story, but I was just wondering.

"I sense… darkness", that was the first line Anakin Skywalker woke up to. He and Adenan were in a starfighter. Ever since the Traditionalists kicked them out of the Temple, Adenan became Anakin's Padawan, forfeiting his Masterless Padawan rank

Anakin looked around, he was in his quarters on his Star Destroyer. Anakin looked left and saw Adenan walking around. Anakin could sense Adenan's inner turmoil. Anakin felt caring for the kid, he had a life of being annoyed and unsatisfied, though not as much as Anakin, but in the Chosen One's opinion, Adenan was handling his life pretty well and was unusually content.

And when Adenan was angry, it was always controlled, and kept anger only if he wanted to, other than that, he let it go only a few seconds after being.

Now, Anakin felt the cold iron on his feet as he walked towards Adenan

"What is it?" Anakin asked

"As you know, the Jedi Order is split. I sense darkness on the other side" Adenan answered

"Oh. I actually sense it too, now that you say it. Wait. You said you can see other dimensions?" Anakin replied, and implied other dimensions with war

"Yes. I get what you want to see, and Darkness is in every dimension near us!" Adenan exclaimed "That's a con of dimension sightseeing, you get to feel the nature of other dimensions! Now, I just have to limit myself to this dimension"

Anakin had to take a few seconds to grasp what Adenan said "Oh", he just said

Then, the two went outside of their quarters, as Anakin thought of what the situation was like, of now. The Balancers had all the Clones, but rumours said that Clone Processes were controlled by the Traditionalists and the Republic was forced to support the Traditionalists all because of that. But all the Clones that were owned by the Traditionalists were probably outnumbered by the Balancer controlled Clones. Anakin and Adenan then went to the Mess Hall. There was the aroma of food everywhere. There were Clones and Admirals eating on tables. Everything was also white. There were others walking to tables.

Anakin and Adenan sat at their respective seats, which were apparently separate from the other Clones. Normally, the Jedi would sit with the Clones, but the darkness was plaguing them like a lack of oxygen.

"How do we combat this, Master?" Adenan asked, when they sat down on the white chairs

"Defeat Traditionalists" Anakin answered, sighing

"Why the sadness?" Adenan asked

"Oh… that counts every non-Balancer who is a Jedi" Anakin answered

"Did they kill any?" Adenan asked

"No" Anakin answered

"Then tell the Clones that Order 66 is off again, and then let's try to kill every traditionalist and save everyone who doesn't still know!" Adenan exclaimed

"That's actually a good idea!" Anakin exclaimed "Let's put a holonet broadcast!"

"Hmm… and I know just the planet to broadcast from" Adenan told Anakin

Then, Anakin and Adenan asked Admiral Yularen to jump to the Mid-Outer Rim Planet of Chameta. He was a man with brown hair wearing a normal grey Republic Admiral Suit, they were at the central command station, where there were many Clones and a holotable. They also deactivated Order 66 again, but told them to kill any Jedi that look like they're about to kill them.

"Mid Outer Rim? There's an actual Republic Planet out there?" Yularen asked

"Yes, I've been there for a mission, I have a friend there who's the daughter of the Senator of that planet!" Adenan answered

Then, all the stars looked like they headed towards them as the familiar sound of the Hyperdrive came. Few Seconds later, blue was seen on all the windows as the ship jumped for hyperspace to the nature planet of Chameta.

When they arrived there, Anakin stared out, to see a planet that was green, brown and blue. There were a few whites, from the clouds. When they landed, Anakin just shrugged, it was beautiful, but not as beautiful as other planets like it, for example, Naboo. There were trees everywhere, and every structure was made of either stone or sandstone, like the stone platform they landed on.

The Jedi got out first, two guards walked towards Adenan. They had metal armour, a helmet covering their hair and cheeks, but not the rest of their face. Anakin walked over to the two guards.

"Hello Adenan, I'm sorry, but Bethrona's back on Coruscant!" The first guard exclaimed

"Yeah, so I heard, is any of her family here?" Adenan asked

"Yeah, her mother" The second guard answered

"Ok, take me to her, I need to transmit a holonet broadcast!" Adenan replied

"Why?" The first guard asked

"Oh… to tell all the Jedi who are not Traditionalists to come here" Anakin answered

"Oh… so you're part of the 'Balancers', that the Jedi have been talking about!" The first guard exclaimed "I was kinda freaked when I saw your name Adenan, I mean, you saved me from that frackin' Sith"

"That was actually a Dark Jedi. But we need to get to the broadcast room in the Palace!" Adenan exclaimed

"Ok, all aboard!" The guards took the Jedi to a transport, they got on. The transport was closed roof, but there were no windows, only open.

Adenan looked around, just like normal. He thought of Bethrona, how would she feel if he was labelled a wanted man. He hoped that Chancellor Amidala would tell everyone about the Balancer's true side. But that would cause strife within the Republic, not that it's split already.

Anakin looked around to see lakes and trees everywhere, these people obviously respected Nature. They seemed nice, but Anakin wasn't about to trust them, like Adenan has. It's not like there was something wrong with them, their presences were fully pure and uncorrupted by the dark side, but Anakin sensed that something would go wrong with the plan.

They got to the palace, on the outside, it was sandstone, but on the inside, it was quartz. There were flower pots and paintings everywhere on the inside.

"We already told the Queen you are here" The first guard told Adenan

"Much appreciated" Adenan replied "You may leave"

"Yes your Prince" The guards playfully told Adenan

"I'm not with Bethrona!" Adenan mumbled, slightly annoyed

Anakin followed Adenan to the throne room, it was all quartz and there was one throne, the queen was standing there, she looked older than Anakin. Anakin and Adenan bowed to her.

"You don't have to do that!" The Queen exclaimed, both of them stood up "I heard of your problem, I can only say that I fully accept the Balancers, the Code needs to change!"

"Thank you" Adenan thanked

"No thanks is needed, I know your fighting a good cause Adenan. Anyway, the Broadcast room is next to the electric generator complex" The Queen told Adenan

Adenan and Anakin walked to the Electric Generator Complex. There was a big Generator there, though not as big as Coruscant. Then, they walked to the room next to it, there was a crew working out cables and holos.

A man came to them, he had black hair, which was styled sideways formally. He was wearing very formal clothes.

"Chancellor Sky- err…. Amidala will be delighted to hear from you!" The man exclaimed to Anakin "I am the host, you two may sit on those chairs"

Anakin and his new Padawan sat on the chairs. The camera was aimed Anakin. The host looked at Anakin and Adenan kindly.

"Don't worry, it will only take a while!" The host exclaimed

They heard a beep and the host motioned them to speak. Anakin adjusted his throat.

"Hello, Republic. This is a call from Anakin Skywalker. Jedi Knight and Master to Ahsoka Tano and Adenan Kornen." Anakin paused, a bit nervous, he breathed and then spoke again "I instruct all Jedi that are not Traditionalists to come to the mid-outer rim planet of Chameta. It is fully supported by the Republic and the people here are supporting the Balancers. I carry a huge risk giving my location, but I instruct you come, only if we band together can we finally mend the split!" Anakin exclaimed

The host stopped recording the live holo, and then he saw the 'watched' stats, there were many people who watched the video, but he wasn't sure if there were Jedi who watched it, only time will tell.

The Senate was shocked at the holo. Bethrona had mixed feelings of the Balancers being on her home planet. Padmé was just happy that her husband was still alive and healthy.

"Ani, hopefully you win this war!" Padmé told Anakin from afar

Every Balancer automatically en-routed to Chameta from the ships they were in. And in fact, almost all Jedi saw it, from Neutrals, who don't support/know of any side to Traditionalists. All the Neutrals only had opinions of it, and all of them decided to go to the Balancers for different reasons. They were unaware the Traditionalists were following them.

"Ah… underhanded trick Skywalker! Well, I'll kill you where you stand!" Mace exclaimed, then got onto his own Jedi Starfighter.

I know I promised war on this chapter, but I decided next chapter should do it! Sorry! NEXT CHAPTER: (REALLY) THE SECOND BATTLE OF CHAMETA
