Disclaimers: the characters don't belong to me, the story belongs to me, everything else belongs to the author and the creator of the movies.

Warnings: With this story, it's going to be fully focused on Anakin's side of things, leading into the ceremony, and before they return to the Capitol now. As not only does the team get their memories back, the Rebel Alliance Leaders. And the Jedi Order get their's as well, seeing that Anakin and Vader are two very different sides. And of his personality, the aspect of cloning is in order, as they clone his alter ego now.

This story is going to use the theoretical from my other story, as the Jedi Quest novels. So the remarks in bold print and italic are Vader himself, Anakin is in basic, not bold and italicized. So this are and will be as though Anakin and Vader are two separate beings now. As the Jedi, the Naboo and everyone in the galaxy, once he clones himself, know that Vader is a separate entity to Anakin's personality entirely.

With this chapter Anakin creates his twin brother, from his alter ego, creating his name, he's doing one side of it, and the other is the one on thin ice here. With his mother at the moment, before Qui-Gon arrives right now, as the story shifts courses. And he becomes the golden child of his friends, his family, Watto and the Hutts. And as well as the town locals, he was everything Ferus is in the Jedi temple now to them.

And as the Jedi see his alter ego as the Chosen One, but are training Anakin in secret here, as the lightsaber implication. Is Vader, and everything that involved the darkside was Vader, Anakin himself grows up to be the perfect Jedi padawan, as they all graduate at 27 to 29. This chapter is going to leave out Anakin'sPOV exchange with his mother, as those thoughts are Vader's, Anakin shows the maturity of a 25 year old from here as the weeks go by.

Chapter 1: Return Of The Jedi And Changing The Past

Watching his family celebrate the victory again the Empire, Anakin Skywalker, once the Sithlord Darth Vader, felt a white flash surround him, clearing his eyes. He looked down, and his hands, looking years younger than he remembered, and charged to the mirror in his bedroom. As he saw himself and he looked 40 years younger and smiled. "I'm 6 years old again, this means I can change the past and save my family right now, thank you Tahl." he said softly then to her.

"Alright date, date, what's the date here right now?" he asked, before checking his bedroom floor and saw familiar pieces scattered around the room, and nodded then. "I'm rebuilding Threepio, that puts me at 6 1/2 and 3 years prior to Obi-wan's mission to Naboo right now." he thought gently as he heard a voice in the room, as he looked out the door to his room then. Till he checked the date, and saw his other set damp then and went out to Amee Farcloud's house.

"Hey Mr. Farcloud, how are you holding up?" he asked and he sighed. "With it being just me and Amee, is I now have to hope and pray, we find her alive, the trader came through here. Yesterday as you know." he said and Anakin nodded. "I think I can get some help, but this means, if we never find her is vengeance." he said and he nodded. "Hey Aunt Leia, can I borrow you communicator?" he asked and his aunt, Leia Starglider, nodded and passed him the radio.

And he walked into the bedroom and closed the door. "Skywalker, care to the old folks home, Master Yoda, do you read me, this is Anakin Skywalker." he said and a small image of the Jedi Grandmaster appeared then. "Read you I do Anakin, what can I do for you?" he asked and he said it gently. "Master have you been pushed back 40 years as well, to 3 years prior to the Naboo mission?" he asked and a smile came into his eyes as he answered him gently then.

"Read you I do Anakin and indeed, Obi-wan and I, got shot back into our younger bodies by 40 years now." he said and Anakin nodded gently. "Master, I considered what went wrong, it's not me though, because technically this idea to train Jedi. And away from their family, results in us growing up with fatal flaws, we need attachments to stay strong. Mom taught me alot here, now if I was Luke's age, this could be a problem, not at my current age."

"As my current age, or even 10 years old, that's the right age for training, but suppressing your emotions is an accident waiting to happen, it results Bruck or Balog. Us human Jedi can't control our anger, in grief here, it needs to be unloaded, say a sparring match. Because if it doesn't, and that could kill someone, Bruck is dead, because of this, only by luck. Is Balog not dead, your mistake with me, destroyed the order." he said and Yoda nodded with a sigh at that news.

"Listen to me carefully, that code change, it prevents here why Obi-wan left, not three missions into his time as a padawan, as 1) we need to be with another padawan to manage, someone our age to talk to while the master side of the partnership, talk strategy. 2) We need to be allowed to feel our pain, anger and hate and let it go, us human Jedi we're like everyone else. Mourn properly, and then remember who we lost with good memories, and 3) here right now."

"Is we're allowed to have family, as those families refill the Jedi ranks, after the purge now, the Force sensitive members of the family, they refill the ranks. As my age group becomes your oldest students, we train your youngest students, carry your lessons. Into the next generation, but in truth the council lost their way, we should be serving the force. Not just the republic, and it's leader, that's why you never saw this till it was too late." he said and he nodded sternly.

"Understand I do, made fatal mistake I did, that not send Qui-Gon to you sooner I did, to check your expanse of power. But at 6 years old you are, your powers strong enough, once your beacon, activated it is. Said is going to get the attention of all versions of force sensitive, that get to you first, before Sith. And dark Jedi can get to you, so get to you first I will, raise you outside the temple." he said and Anakin nodded.

"Yes, but at what age is acceptable for training, if out of the temple, I'm in my 6 1/2 year old body right now, that, if I remember correctly, junior padawan was 5 to 12 years old. If you considered me too old at going on 10, because I thought the force, or Father's soulmate shot us. All of, back 40 years in time, so you can do me for real, as you put me to my creche class at the moment, the guys and Darra, Tahiri, Sari and Lana." he said and then sighed as he said it then.

"And we had the raider come through here, but I'm turning 7 in 2 months." he said and he nodded. "The Raider, Krayne, came through your spaceport already, he has?!" he said quickly and Anakin nodded gently. "Yes Master he did, but this is why I'm calling, but it maybe necessary to start me now, but 6 years of training. I became more sure of myself, then ever, before confronting him, but in order to get close, I have to infiltrate Siri's undercover mission."

"But if I train here till you come to get me at the moment, how old?" he asked and he explained that. "No older than 7, you should be, junior apprentice you are as learn and train easier, you can this way now. But understand the question you as, I do, that train you this young now, I may have known you. And as a 10 year old youngling to young adult, but meant it to Luke, know and knew you, quite well I did and strong you are."

"As should have or have a Jedi live close by you to train, I should, but once Naboo mission starts, detour to get you, we will, and start full training, you do. But story and alibi to the twins, must be created here now, only way, so story becomes reality. Jedi you and Vader different sides of you, they are, so if memory serves now. The Zabrak and Sidious, Qui-Gon and Obi-wan they are now, you us, Vader them now in truth."

"As took an active interest in you, now that contacted me, you did." he asked and he nodded. "Yes Master, that's it exactly, but you have a Jedi family here, but one chance, you get to me first, but sure, you never raised me from infancy, but same difference. I have my own version of creche teachers right here, and they're still Jedi, just moisture Farmers now. I can train here till I'm going on 10, and if this follows the same pattern right now, you come get me."

"But instead of hurrying to catch up to the clan, you have and had now spent 3.5 years working on me, I'm like the clan now, I'm a skilled padawan of 3.5 years here. I learned all the lessons leading into choosing ceremonies and our gatherings right now. At starting at age 6 1/2, and create my lightsaber at going on 10." he said and Yoda nodded smiling at his idea. "Agreed, very good idea that is, Anakin, wise idea and mark Vader as unfit to start training."

"But you, been working on you, I have, since getting out of junior creche training right now, that like your clan you are by the time come to get you, Obi-wan does. But think it time for you to meet Qui-Gon this young, I do, but he is your parental mentor. While Obi-wan your mentor, and return you to your team I will, that fix this we can now. I see right you are, that not changing the code when had the chance, I did, caused it."

"That fix this I can and spend 17 years growing up the new way your class can now, as grow up normal padawans, before you become teenage youngling now. But true chosen one you are, just need right nurturing, though freedom you get. Such a thing as too much, and very gifted Padawan, you are, as I told Luke now. Very powerful Jedi, you are, but once controlled the anger and hate and unstoppable, you will be."

"Rather than send a representative of the council, come seeing you personally Obi-wan and I will, to heal matters and bring equipment and texts for you to study. But training from 8 in the morning till 1 in the afternoon and 4 hours at the shop. General idea we have here now, but show the entire spaceport that outside temple training. Is good for something you do now, Anakin." he said and Anakin nodded smiling gently then.

"Anakin!" they heard as a young man of 22 year appeared then with a smile. "Boy am I glad to see you, there's the you I know again, I take it you also got shot back to now?" he asked and Anakin nodded smiling. "Yeah I did brother, but his remark, about searching outside the Republic became null and void. And your's of you been training since I was cub, well you got to me first, when I was going on 7 now." he said and Obi-wan Kenobi smiled at him gently then.

"Indeed brother, I'm taking care of you." he said gently to him then. "Hey big brother, my idea here is instead of starting me, when my emotions were that far developed here. Start me at this age now, and I'm completely like the others, so this way no fights between me and Ferus. As we met when I arrived, I have friends instantly upon arriving right now as that helps. And we get Vader cloned with it." he said as he saw his mentor 40 years younger than he remembered.

"What mission are you about to leave for exactly?" he asked and he chuckled. "Well if this was my current trip out, we are headed for Alderaan, but as you're my chosen padawan. And I want a chance to see you younger than I remember you right now, the mission is on hold, as we come to you, but start you this young. And Qui-Gon is not going to mind this, as we spend two weeks bonding and then we head for Alderaan now."

"This is a good idea, I'm going to recommend to Qui-Gon now, that I chose in advance, the padawan is an out of temple creche. And you're learning everything the ones inside the temple, now are learning, as a result. So should I recommend a detour, so he can meet you on interview, before we come get you?" he said and Anakin nodded. "Yeah do that, you three chose in advance, me your padawan, Master, he picked me for you."

"With me in this body, just call me Annie, my nickname now, that's what my friends and mom, even Padme and Qui-Gon call me. But start this age, you stand a better chance with me, as I could be seen as just coming out of the nursery 2 years ago. As you get to work on me, and you had two ready creche Masters here with me all this time. The Stargliders, Leia's surname is Skywalker, as in me now, my grandfather looks like me as an adult, Jacen Skywalker."

"It runs in my family, from Jacen to Leia and mom, to me, and 'him', time to turn the story true Obi-wan, it's time, you started me now." he said and Yoda nodded. "Very well and very good idea that is, my former padawans are your aunt and her husband: the Stargliders. So you are the Annie talked about all the time she had, very well Annie, I understand. Yes alright, make change now and 16 years changed the code now I have here now."

"Qui-Gon's remark to Shmi, on you, null and void it will be, but must get to you first, before Sidious does, I have to. So with that padawan, be there in 3 days Annie, we will now, see you soon I will, my padawan." he said and Anakin nodded gently to him. "Yes Master, see you then, love you." he said and he nodded. "And I you, Annie, may the force be with you, my padawan." he said gently and Anakin repeated the farewell gently then.

"May it be with you, my Master." he said and they ended the radio call and he got up. "Aunt Leia, the grandmaster is coming to visit, has to do with you holding the place of creche training. The grandmaster sees me and thinks I have potential he remembers in grandpa, if the force is strong is the maternal side, he gave an exception. And to training this late in the standard creche." he said and she nodded smiling as her husband chuckled with an amused look then.

"So we're your teachers now, that by the time we have your new mentor drop in finally, you reached your peers level now, rather then winning that race. It's you better crash that podracer repeatedly, if you're this strong in the force, if the red blades are about to return. That's your only protection right now." Davish 'Dave' Starglider said and she nodded in agreement. "I know right now, but he's bringing along a 22 year old padawan, name of Obi-wan Kenobi with him."

"He and his mentor, Master Qui-Gon Jinn are coming to meet me and arrange a set up schedule with you, so I can learn everything you remember as a junior padawan. But we have a mission crop up in sum years, it's time, I get my gathering and I have to leave." he said and they nodded. "But he went over the two sides of a person, so if I was a twin, and my alter ego could be seen as a twin right now in truth, just examine us both, one was the model student now."

"And the other completely irregular and at times prone to anger." he said and she nodded, as she put a notepad on the table and placed one side as Anakin, and the other his alter ego. "Yes okay, well my personality makes like Clee now, your uncle is like Damon Calrissian. He's one of my side of my age group, mine was Ki, Plo, Saesee, Shaak Tii Dave, and Tiana. Qui' had Mace, Tahl, Clee herself, Kit Fisto, Adi and Depa." she said and Anakin nodded in understanding then.

"Well Qui's a bit of maverick at times, kind hearted and a very good man, but at times his being living force could result in the situations he gets himself into right now. But like he worries about Obi-wan letting his emotions control him, we worry about him the same way. That best to control them and not let them control you, but at times feelings need help here. Or they get completely out of control and put others at risk." Dave said and he nodded in understanding.

"That must be who he chose to be my mentor, I think Master's about to start changing the code right now, so rather then looking like a religion. We're an academy of force potential children and adults right now, but expect trouble, as if the red blades did come back. They never see this coming that Master Yoda spent 17 years working on me, I'm too under his influence. To even consider turning." he said and she and her sister, his mother, nodded in agreement to that.

As they waited and 3 days later, Yoda and his mentor, Senior Padawan/Jedi Master Obi-wan Kenobi arrived and he bowed to them and they smiled in affection. "Welcome to Tatooine Masters Yoda, Jinn, Padawan Kenobi, I'm Anakin Skywalker." he said and they nodded. "May I ask why we have a few Jedi coming to visit right now?" a pilot asked and Anakin smiled. "I'm that reason Captain, out of temple training junior padawan." he said and everyone smiled then.

"So we got company arriving, and I'm helping to protect their protection duty, if they make a stop here for fuel and repairs to the ship." Anakin said and they nodded. "Well getting to know our visitors, before we see them three years older, then we remember helps. But you're the best at what you do in piloting, but let me guess, win a race, lose a race. So we have their alter ego show up, he doesn't realize the power you carry?" he asked and Anakin nodded smiling then.

"You know of the Stargliders?" he asked and they nodded smiling. "They're my aunt and uncle, maternal side, my grandfather Jacen is one of his students. Knowing the tremendous power that my bloodline carries, they decided to have me trained outside the temple. But what they call a living force, but being the only youngling Jedi living in town, you can defer me to now. But peacekeeper, as you know I do this all the time." he said and everyone chuckled and nodded.

"What my Master, my one on one mentor, would say is now null and void about being born in the republic here Captain. We came to see how much power Initiate Skywalker truly has, as he trains outside the temple. But, and if there is another mission that passes through here, I'm coming to get him myself right now. But making the choice this soon right now, he's mine in truth, my future student, I practically raised him myself." Obi-wan added and he nodded gently.

"So seeing what being a raised out of the temple causes, and repeated arguments and debates and ones he has to prevent a fist fight or altercation from breaking out?" another pilot said and Anakin nodded gently. "I'm actually a cub version to his mentor, that needless to say here the trouble gets started, and his mentor and he are dropping in a second time. As they bring me back to the temple to consider becoming a full padawan now." he said and they nodded then.

"Well you're a good kid, we're all going to miss you son, but hopefully this is not goodbye, but see you soon." he said and Yoda nodded gently. "It will be Captain, that changing the code I am starting today, now that frankly if a theoretical, this was. Then my mistake of not changing the code sooner after finding him destroyed us if the Sith ever return now." he said and he nodded. "Hopefully they don't, but we depend on you to protect us." a third said gently and he nodded.

"Making the arrangement with my mother, Watto and my aunt and uncle right now, that my schedule is a little steep right now, but they brought the equipment necessary. And for me to train with and I'm out of the temple trained padawan, that the rules are now null and void. About falling in love and starting a family, as we got 5 in the Order already, and I'm about to become 6 now in 20 years." he said and they nodded smiling as they ended the conversation.

"Best drop the act now, we knew each other another life, and I just returned to you in the end." Anakin said and he nodded, as he crouched down and hugged him and he tightened his arms around him. "Force I missed you brother, I should never have left, I didn't see that formula till it was too late." he said and Anakin nodded. "The one connected to Kad Chun and his family?" he asked and Obi-wan nodded. "Kad and Omega exactly, I just came home." he said to him then.

"Said mission not long after, if he ends up in my situation, we walk right into Bruck's family and with them, Den and Andra for the second time in 15 years now." Obi-wan said and his mentor nodded in understanding then. "I understand, but with you once was enough, I'm not losing him too right now." he said and Obi-wan nodded. "Next to last padawan Master, he's our youngest, my pride and joy, I practically raised him myself." he said and his mentor smiled gently then.

"This is going to be a long 6 years, before that mission Master, but if we can prevent it this time, then Father is alive and I get both ways, plus my color guard too." he said softly and Yoda nodded smiling in agreement then. "And there's the you I know again, gods I missed you so much, looking at it, time and time again, I wondered what I had done. To make you consider that choice right now." Obi-wan said as he looked into his eyes and he shook his head then.

"Well before I answer that, Krayne came through here already and took Halla Farcloud and 29 other slaves, this was what had 'Andy' so desperate to find her on his ship. But he had a wand, that was able to deactivate transmitters, so he could take anyone. But being a factory slave, is beyond brutal, mom always said it could be far worse for us. And the worse is being a factory slave, here we get freedom somewhat, them, they're worked until they die, brother, in truth."

"The only way to freedom is buying out the contracts, or by killing him, before he takes another life now, that's why I faced off against him, he killed Halla now. Halla's daughter is my friend Amee, the little girl you are to meet, once you move their ship behind my house." he said and Obi-wan nodded sternly. "And now the truth is out, you never told me that then, but you are now, Krayne kidnapped the mother of your friend, and then killed her when she tried to resist."

"She's why you wanted to be a Jedi." he said then and Anakin nodded. "Yeah she is, my friends are actually the NFS versions of my clan at the academy now. Those dreams on mom, I finally realized it, as myself again, he wanted us on protection duty. To keep me away from Tatooine, till she was near death, so when I did arrive, I was too late. And I brushed the darkside, as Vader got his first taste of blood." he said and Obi-wan crossed his arms then sternly.

"Yes, we need to use both of us, but since we're splitting you in half, Andy is with me, Siri has you, so two places at once." he said and Yoda nodded. "But I had Krayne, before you arrived, but the look on my face, before I stabbed him now. Said was I was waiting for him to pull that blaster, I knew he had a blaster on him, he yanks it, he decided he's dying. Instead of coming quietly right now." he said and Yoda nodded gently to him and he explained what happened.

"After the visions of mom turned out to be true, I was praying I could prevent this, but they started after we got back and she told me she was pregnant. And ended after I took his offer, only I can't believe I did that, but you remember your debate with Mace. And about forcefully removing him from office?" he asked and Yoda nodded to him. "Told him that a dark place this will take us, if we choose that path, and never more right then I ever been right now, Annie."

"Look at what that decision did to you." he said and Anakin nodded sternly. "Well they stormed his office, a fight ensued and he killed Agen, Saesee and Kit. Just before I arrived in time, as the fight was recorded, making it look like we were taking over the Republic now. But I arrived in time, to realize as he had him finally, I was intending to take him alive, as if there was one. There could be a second lightsaber, there is, and we had evidence to call treason, as now."

"Fixing a making I made mistake 3 weeks prior, I tried to talk him out of killing him, we needed him alive as the lightsaber had been knocked out the window. Just to prove he's playing both sides of the war, but from there he appealed to me, but Mace was too far gone. He struck the killing blow, his purple turns to blood red now, in saving his soul, I accidentally took it. His wrist, off, but Sidious blew him out the window." he said and Yoda nodded, in understanding finally.

"So you never intended to turn on us, you tried to save Mace and instead Sidious killed him after you tried to prevent him from killing him, I too would have stopped you from killing Dooku. If I was awake right now, only he was chained, but you would listen to me, not the Jedi way. To kill in cold blood, but Krayne was a self defense maneuver, as was the carver, it was self defense. As Dooku loses the same arm he took you, which is plenty." Obi-wan said and Yoda nodded then.

"I took both arms, so he cut mine off, he loses both of his, one for me, one for father." he said and Qui-Gon nodded. "Fair enough, but if this is not betrayal of everything I stood for and nothing is, if he was the apprentice, the new one to the Sith that sent our quarry after us. You avenged me and Mace, and whoever it was, after they killed us." he said and Anakin nodded. "Not turning dark either, Jedi to the end, before lost you we did, very well now, keep going."

"So killed four members of the council Sidious had, what happened next if walked into a wreckage we did exactly, before my fight." Yoda asked and he explained that. "As if learning he was the Sithmaster was not enough, I just killed what was last of my color mentors. Both Plaeguis and Father are dead there was no other source for that skill, but I learned a lesson. But a Sith will offer anything you wish for, take it, your soul belongs to them." he said to him then.

"He ordered our regiment to lay siege at the temple and get the Sith holocrons from the archives, but by then Vader was in control, it wasn't me. But by the time you came to me, the bloodlust and power lust was coursing through his veins, before he flipped out. And you remember the rest, but never again, just clone me and your explanation to Luke. That turns true, in trying to persuade him to come hack, we got into a heated fight, he barely killed me."

"I'm never falling for it again, was Father studying that ability, by that I mean force healing, because he told me of Sith legend, Darth Plaeguis the wise?" he asked and he nodded. "I should have seen that coming, tell you that legend, how does he know it, till the truth comes out. We walked right into it now, you told Mace, they immediately act on it, and then they destroy us. By using you to do it, but you're in very fragile portion of your training." Obi-wan said to that news.

"I should have seen that though, this was a very dangerous time for you, where you'll be tempted by the darkside, we knew yes, but we were waiting for you to tell us." He said and Yoda nodded in agreement. "Indeed, knew we did, but wish you told me, that pregnant she was, the twins, matched your signature, they did." he said and Anakin nodded. "Well I am now, and I will Master, the premonitions started again, after she told me." he said and they nodded.

"Though 23, I still feel 12 at times with you guys, after the situation with the blasted Carver." he said and they nodded in understanding then. "Well rather then pitracing, we can use the old one here so you can simulate race, with two more, as you free the slave contingent on Tatooine. Before the games later, but don't lose your temper, with knowing Sebulba will be there." Obi-wan said and he nodded. "Incoming, there he is now." he said and they saw said dug then.

"And to answer your question right now, yes indeed I was baby, it's a lightside skill start this young and you have it mastered by the time. You're 20 and can save your mother, the girls and whoever you fell in love with, this Padme." Qui-Gon said and he nodded smiling. "Padme is the future queen and Senator of Naboo, Padme Naberrie, alias, Padme Amidala. But she's my wife and the mother of my children, said theory the Keganites told you." he said and he nodded.

And Yoda and Obi-wan smiled, already knowing that to be true, if she been carrying the twins, but hearing him confirm it cemented it for them. "I have twins in the future, a boy and girl, the older of the two is the boy, he's me in everything that counts. But supposedly had a repeat, he passed the test where I failed it, with our Sithmaster watching the fight. Till baby got the upper hand and took my wrist off, without landing the blow." he said and Qui-Gon nodded gently.

"The fight, mean you do, the match between you and Dooku?" Yoda said sternly and he nodded. "And Light passed the test where I failed it, by refusing to kill me, he chose being a Jedi, and remembering this moment, I realized that Sidious wanted him to take my place. But unknown to him, I was now testing him, shoving him to realize the dangers of that power. As he passed that test, in where I flunked it, his trial by lava was me, like mine was Dooku." he said to him then.

"So you came back at that fight, or was it 7 months prior, after I tried to give him to wait, as we trained him further, knowing hearing it from you was too much. He had to hear it from me, before he saw what you became." Obi-wan said and Anakin nodded. "It was after I ran a blood test on Leia, her blood matched mine, midichlorine count everything. I thought it was a fluke, till he said my name, the son of Skywalker, and it hit me, I had twins." he said and he nodded.

"Or rather he and Vader got into it, and the same wrist he took off was the one he lost now, but as I said, Vader was more machine now, then man, twisted and evil. But you and Light are two sides of the same warrior, like you and I are, once I complete your training. But you and I knew each other's favorite moves, we were closer then friends, closer then brothers. We're two sides of the same warrior, you are my brother, my best friend, Anakin, but it was time you told us."

"And now the truth is out, while we would have given an exception once you told us this, helped you find a way to save her now, Mace never would understand." Obi-wan said in relief as he admitted it finally. "You were the one I needed, I love you both, but though you're the closest thing to a father I had, needed a parent Jedi, and the quartet filled in that role." he said and Obi-wan nodded as he went further, as he looked at the older man gently then.

"Obi-wan, I grew up normal, in the few short, days since meeting Father, he took the position of father and encouraged me to trust my instincts. But your fatal mistake was not acting on my nightmares of mom, and telling them this, if you had. I would have never changed at all, but how could I trust you after my dreams of Padme started here. After Master's advice, what's that supposed to tell me?" he asked and Qui-Gon nodded sternly at the news as he answered him.

"Like with me, Master Yoda, you did it again, and this time it results in destroying the entire Order, that's not his fault." he said and Yoda closed his eyes, never seeing he had done it again. "And are you saying you three are not you at all, but sum years into the future?" he added and they nodded. "We are, but that's going on 41 years now, but 46, 62 and 900 years old, Mace triggered an apocalypse, resulting in him turning to the darkside and killing the entire Order."

"But with possibly Tahl sending us back to now, we get to do everything all over again, and if we can save you, you keep him on his path and what I told his son, turns true now." Obi-wan said to him. "Yeah, it's that we get a second chance, start me this young and we're bonded by the time you guys come get me, if we have a crisis in the senate right. But why do I get the feeling your rival's younger double is supposedly my version of him." Anakin said to him, sighing then.

"It's because that child is as hot tempered, cruel and arrogant as his adult self right now, but his anger and lust for power cost him his life. You, like your brother are the type of student I prefer, but that child is from a rich planet. In thinking he deserves to have everything handed to him, instead of working hard for it, but I see a good boy. One honest, kind and hardworking when I look at you, but as I said, would say to you later, Jedi training is not easy, it's a challenge."

"And even if you succeed in training, that this is a hard life, but you're me as a youngling, I see that easily, that raising a cub me works." Qui-Gon said to him gently and Yoda nodded in agreement. "Indeed and I will, but this precisely is what tried to tell Luke was a mistake I did, give in, and could get the truth sooner than he wanted, he does. And from the wrong person, had to hear it from us, as tries what Padme did, he does." Yoda said and Anakin nodded then.

"Said visions that played out, reported by whoever Lana's people are, they're focused on the kids and their fight with 'him'." he said and Yoda nodded sternly then. "The weapon as well too, indeed, wondering what they connected to, I was in truth, and turns out. That focus on your family's war to free the galaxy from tyranny, they do." he said and Anakin nodded. "Well I have been having those same visions for three months, that's the future." he said and they nodded.

"And know I do that's not due to being shoved back into these bodies in our cases, it does." he said sternly and Anakin nodded gently. "It's not, but the color guard, I'm a guardian and carry the red in my heart right now, but building my lightsaber. I saw Obi-wan in blue, and the Zabrak in red, one or the other, but combine both together right now. I'm Mace in every sense of the word now, but Dooku left, because he knew a cancer was growing in the republic right now."

"It was never you, it was the council right now, Obi-wan, but the dreams started again: like Yaddle, like mom." he said and they nodded in shock then. "It got worse, just before you arrived Krayne came through here, 2 days ago, we lost 30, and Halla was one of them." he said and they nodded sternly. "Where were you, if you thought he got your mother?" Obi-wan asked and he nodded. "I took Amee to an Oasis on the far side of the wastes." he said and he nodded.

"I suppose you felt the power blast of my anger after I blacked out, just before the battle on Geonosis?" he asked and Yoda nodded. "I never made it in time and mom died in my arms, the protection detail was meant to keep me away from home. He wanted me to brush the darkside, at the time, ever since he felt the power blast I was his primary target. But that's what happened, if I told you first." he said and Obi-wan crossed his arms at the news then sternly.

"How soon before everyone in my class got used to the changes, in growing up like normal children, though we're force sensitives?" he asked and Yoda nodded. "Eighteen months at most, believe I do, but then had the easier time, you're the out of the Temple raised. But correct you are, that changed it sooner when we found you, I should have, but failure, how we learn it is. But set in motion, and the Sith will never know I changed the code." he said and Anakin nodded.

"And sorry to say this, but the current code is wrong, you can have a padawan, but train a junior padawan, he was already training me. Before you gave approval now, as such right now is this, but though very good, just one side is not enough, I needed both. My fears are more then you think, not just about loss of loved ones, I'm afraid of the tremendous power. I carry and the evil in my heart, and even more after they found me here." he said and Obi-wan nodded then.

"That's why you charged Dooku, as first is losing Shmi, then you lost Dane, Tahiri, Corran and Wes next, you never wanted me to see it twice that day." he said and Anakin nodded. "Okay, this time you got so desperate to stop it, you took his offer, but he destroyed you and killed her out of a broken heart." he said and Anakin nodded. "That and I was with Mace when he went to investigate my findings, Palpatine is Sidious, he'd been standing in front of us, all this time."

"But I was blackmailed, I help him, or he was going to tell everyone about she and I are married and she's pregnant." he said and they nodded. "And once is enough, not going through this again, we are starting now, that clone everyone that killed in the wars, we are. And everyone goes into hiding till coast is clear it is and change colors till safe it is now. That only you, me and Obi-wan are surviving real Jedi, the other, New Jedi Order, they are." Yoda said sternly to that.

"Gunray and Dooku were in on it now, every Sith apprentice involved, this was all his plan to convert me and destroy the Jedi." he said and they nodded sternly. "Well fix this, we can, but once Qui-Gon sees that Padme gets her memories back, and then drop the truth, we will. And to him, Dack and your mother, because you always mattered more to us here right now. Second Padawan Skywalker, not proven, full of fear and his to save.." Yoda said sternly and he nodded.

"I understand that right now, but there are two sides of a person and the lightsaber reflects that, but one is us. And the other is this trio, whoever it is that seems to be trying to destroy him right now. But we got to him first and he grows up a padawan right now, as to that, once I spend a few days getting to know him. Just like you seem to have, my decision is final here, so Brazen needs to understand that, it's not just training, but controlling your temper here."

"And Annie seems to be a cub me in every sense of the word right now.", Qui-Gon said and he nodded smiling as Yoda hid a chuckle then. "You could say that Father, in truth now is I'm good at making friends and making a lot of them, no concept of my future. My focus is on the here and now where it belongs right now, but my twin you could say. I think he's brother's version of the force, but that's just the problem, I had a vision." Anakin said and they nodded smiling.

"Then it's the reverse here, we need to teach you better control of your precognitions, is it just your fears, or is it something that is about to come to pass. And for him, he needs to control himself and keep his attention on the here and now and where it belongs." Qui-Gon said and he nodded gently then. "Adi could be good to help that, but 10 years learning one side of the force your class will be, once chosen and 8 years learning the other after." Yoda said and he nodded.

"It gets better here in truth, I had a vision of a group of soldiers, dressed in white armor, a man dressed in black, carrying a red lightsaber a boy/girl duo, I think they're twins. Leading a group of freedom fighters against a man dressed in a cloak, with a lightning scarred face now. And reddish gold eyes, I think he could be a Sith, as could the man in black, they were. Now, trying to destroy a moon sized weapon after it destroyed a planet now." he said and Qui-Gon nodded.

And as he crossed his arms. "So what the Keganites told me was true now, if your description matches what they told me, we have to work fast now. And change the code right now, as you, Annie, get stronger and more sure of yourself, but to nurture that power. Is learning it from within, as I got to you first, before this blacked cloaked man could see you now. But no choice necessary, you're my next apprentice, when I come get you." he said and Anakin nodded then.

"Best get back to the house right now, so mom can meet you, Dave and Leia were looking forward to see you Master." he said and Yoda nodded as they headed there as the two adult Jedi bowed. "Master Yoda, Qui-Gon, well been a long time, my Master, it's great to see you again." Dave said smiling and he smiled gently then. "Indeed it has Padawan, good to see you it is Dave, Leia, missed you so, I have." Yoda said and he looked at Shmi as he said it to her gently.

"Hello Ms. Skywalker, I am Master Yoda, Grandmaster of the Jedi Order, and these are my apprentices, Padawan Kenobi and his mentor, Master Jinn, come to discuss training with you, that should help Anakin better control what you come to notice about him now." he said and she nodded, smiling. "Nice to meet you Master Yoda, Obi-wan, Master Jinn, it's nice to meet you right now." she said and they smiled then at that remark, knowing doing it like this worked.

"In choosing in advance, with your sister and Dave training him in creche, I'm checking in periodically, before I come get him, as we establish the final set up. But if this was fate now, then I was meant to be the one to train and raise him as my youngest student. So with my being a friend of the family, this solves that problem, and whatever you order. I will carry it out, regarding things when on the capitol, you have my word." Qui-Gon said and she nodded then.

"And all of you are very welcome here, he is meant for more here, but no special treatment, and no talking to strangers, aside from your friends outside the temple. I also wish just two more than retirement, our owner right now, in truth here, has him doing podracing. But evidently he's the better driver, right now, because we have a dangerous driver in a Dug. So if you come back in time for the said race, you're seeing why I wanted him to retire here right now in truth."

"Because though very good, it takes one mistake, one distraction and someone's going to get hurt here." she said and he nodded, just as he was answering, they heard a loud explosion then. "Ody's pit droid team, one got too close to the turbine and got sucked in, the little wise guy never understands, never get too close or the tidal forces pull you in." Anakin said, explaining the noise and Obi-wan nodded with a bemused smile as Qui-Gon hid a chuckle to that response.

"Point taken now, understand I do, but if not true podracing, organize, I can, the council to create a simulator for him and drain his nerves that way, he does. As keeps his mind on the here and now where it belongs." Yoda said with an amused look and she nodded, smiling. "That I can take now, but I get married sometime in the next 8 years and move. I'll be close to Leia now and out of the city, but only way to freedom is killing Krayne." she said and he nodded.

"Then after yesterday's trauma, the Jedi taking him alive is to be your son." he said and she nodded sternly. "Well two victories, buying out the contracts and destroying the transmitters or better, killing him and that gives freedom as well, because being it currently. Is that this is preferable to being a factory slave, or mining slave, the transmitter now. Any attempt to escape and it'll explode right now." she said and Obi-wan nodded, now understanding Anakin's words.

"To put this bluntly, in what I told you brother, he has every slave afraid of him, everyone know, try to resist they end up dead. But every new day for a slave is a day to die, we are looked at as property not people. That the one chance to freedom is by him dying or being taken alive, but if he won't come quietly. That I have no choice now, but don't make me do this, I trained with lightsaber for 7 years that this not the way I wanted it used." he said and they nodded gently.

"And there's information I needed if Andy gives me a rant about being a slave right now, when you join my girlfriend on undercover status, and he's looking to kill that filth." Obi-wan said sternly and Qui-Gon and Yoda nodded in agreement. "Agreed, grew up a padawan you did Annie, and Andy not ready he is for Jedi training, if can not control his anger and fear." Yoda said as Qui-Gon crossed his arms then, knowing the alter ego was going to turn dangerous.

"Yes alright, thank you for telling me that, if I hear that again, and our protection detail, the leader of it is with me and we hear that a second time. As for your remark, Shmi, that's fine right now, I can field that, we made a few friends in our travels. But the lunatic scientist I had to arrest 8 years ago, she scared the heck out of my son here and his girlfriend now. Our partner pair up, Siri Tachi and her mentor Adi Gallia, she's a close friend and council member."

"But if the Sith are trying to disillusion him from being a Jedi, they're about to be severely disappointed, as Master is changing the code, once he activates completely. So he can come see you and whoever he bonded to in our return mission right now. But after 3 years the decision was made in advance, he's my youngest now, so a father of sorts here. That's what our position really is as parental mentors, we're everything our students need." he said and she nodded.

"When the time comes, I decided, beforehand to be the one to be mentor, but the teams instead of two, have become 3 members. In a fast negotiation, of what the code once said now undone and we're changing it now, so currently I have another 6 years. But right now, I am in no rush, as I have him to fall back on, in later years, that I will be checking in. And periodically the next 3 years leading into his gathering for his lightsaber." Obi-wan said and she nodded smiling.

"With knowing how strong your son is, decided I have that learning creche training outside the temple now, made arrangements. Work his schedule around his working the shop we can that by the time another mission passes through here. Qui-Gon, chosen parental master, he is to your son now, hand picked specifically for you. That come back we will in a few years, to check on his progress, as we see him in action, before the final decision, as during his gathering."

"This is, ready he is for his lightsaber, and being chosen apprentice to Obi-wan and his mentor Qui-Gon Jinn, but the code. Changed it, I have now in total truth here, but sense I do that the only way the prophecy, fulfilled it can be, is by cloning his alter ego." Yoda said and she nodded then. "So what do you suggest exactly?" she asked and Anakin ran his hand through his hair then. "We turn my alter ego into my own twin brother." he said and she nodded then gently.

"I'm actually the older twin, the younger twin, could become the target for the red blades, and the target of this prophecy, the council. It was training me to be a back up, as such, that's just the problem, if Krayne comes back. I know this, I maybe a padawan, but no lightsaber, that going up against him is suicide." he said and she nodded in understanding. "Indeed and that we understand, you have more control and sense then your twin does now." she said to him gently.

"Hopefully that's not the first use of your lightsaber, that rather than self defense, you have to kill in combat for the first time." Obi-wan said sternly and he nodded. "I know, but if he refuses to yield…" he said and they nodded. "And no other choice you have, understand that we do, and correct, you are, but first Xanatos and now Zan Arbor, if Krayne. Follows their example he does and pulls a weapon, no other choice you have, now." Yoda said and Anakin nodded gently then.

"Well I'm 13 trapped in my going on 7 year old body here, metaphorically, that my unit says this, we are not to know, we are to do, as that said mission interception now. Now results in my activation mission, like your's did as your mentor meets my wife face to face, brother." he said and Obi-wan nodded. "And there's a mission I won't soon forget, as you learn what crossover missions results in right now." he said and Yoda chuckled and nodded in agreement to that.
