The Salvation Of The Chosen One
Warnings: This story is going several weeks back to my previous Revenge of the Sith story, taking place directly after he and Obi-wan get back. It's also going to involve having his adult memories, Obi-wan and Yoda's souls shooting back to that day. So this will be insuring Palpatine is never going to win this, as the twins arrive. And they see their parents for real as young adults, insuring their adult memories are strong.
Also with this chapter is Anakin, after making a fast decision to give his current lightsaber to Obi-wan, for him to give to Luke and with it a gift to Leia. He sees a debate between his son and Obi-wan and Yoda over going to Bespin. As he, before his alter ego betrays him, is deciding he'd rather die by his best friend's hands. As himself then live as Darth Vader, as he tells them the truth, and Padme's opinion to this….
Disclaimers: Starwars doesn't belong to me, the story belongs to me, the characters and everything else belongs to George Lucas and the movie companies.
Chapter 2: Truths Of The Chosen One II
"That's connected to Obi-wan's past, they're at it again, Obi-wan got picked when you sent him to Bandomeer. But Chun didn't and he's exacting revenge by joining Omega's father, we got him now, my alter ego is Bruck, this me is you, by denying him his position as a master. Sidious is playing Father's previous apprentice, my alter ego is Bruck, but denial of being made master. Is like no member in your age group choosing him as a padawan." he said and they all nodded.
"Indeed, at it again they are, but not destroyed us then, why would they now, when seeing the equation for what it is now, you are here, Annie." he said gently and the second nodded in agreement. "I sense a plot to destroy the Jedi here right now, but did Xanatos get a hold of Sidious, that's the second time in 26 years here!" his mentor said and they nodded. "In truth I'm not ready to let go yet, with her pregnant, a few more years." he said and they all nodded.
"Indeed, at the moment you need more time Anakin here, though a knight, in many ways still a padawan, you still need us." the second in command said gently and he nodded. "To answer the other question now is there was a pattern, a formula to his destruction process. But disruption, demoralization and distraction, all together they equal devastation." he said and the 23 year old nodded. "Just like your three piece warning, Master Yoda." he said and the grandmaster nodded.
"Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering and point made after my alter ego, Bruck's apprentice, killed the entire raider village." he told him and he nodded sternly. "So two ways this could go, if Bruck let go of his anger and hate at Obi-wan, he's your alter ego. Your alter ego's mentor, Xanatos or our Zabrak to Miro, Sidious to Qui and our un-named Sith to Master Yoda, that's the key here?" the Master on the radio asked and he nodded gently to him.
"Exactly, they got caught in attempted destruction 26 years ago, they're trying it twice, but my alter ego is getting annoyed here, but denial of promotion to master. To him, is like to Bruck after nobody in your age group chose him as a padawan, and instead of going to the darkside. Xanatos dug into his family records and started planting greed and hate into him, being Jedi means selfless, but us human Jedi, we're bound by virtues, not sin, working on his anger."
"Till he turned him, and only Obi-wan's same reaction, 12 years apart saved his life right now, but my alter ego, though he loves Obi-wan, he wants power. Bruck now, his resentment, after Father chose him, and Father decided no, not choosing another padawan. Obi-wan is his padawan and started carrying his lightsaber around with him now here. It's happening again, only this time, my alter ego is playing Bruck." he said and his mentor crossed his arms then.
"I remember after they got caught in the act, Qui-Gon grabbed his lightsaber and put it back on his belt, if you ended up getting stuck out there…." he asked and the knight nodded. "Deepest commitment, the most serious mind, I created 20, my primary is going home. As I give you that brother, but I got my back up, I have everything I need right here, I am a Jedi. But I never needed another mentor, I am your padawan, not leaving." he said in response and they smiled.
"I understand and I love you too." his mentor said gently at that, as a book quadrilogy dropped on the floor. "Jedi Quest: The Legacy of Xanatos, oh for crying out loud, that's you with Nield and Cerasi's children if she survived the blast, this one is you and their son. As I leave, and instead of wanting to stay, you're working out a way to bring me back now. By destroying the fighters, before this one, it's your return home and we're doing a second round of this now."
"Immediate probation, your clan is gaining their teams, I decided I'm not taking a new padawan you are my padawan, and you're looking at what I did and redoing all of it right now!" he said, picking up the book quartet then and looking through each one and the council nodded in shock. "Last one, what is it, if had this happened twice, you and he did?" he asked and he nodded. "It's after he and Dane rescued Tahiri, the dunk in the lake, caused his system to crash right now."
"The follow up mission directly after this, after whoever, possibly Brazen, followed in Bruck's footsteps, Brazen was killed in the fight with Anakin, same as me. And instead of shipping straight back out, Winna grounded him, because he lost 10 pounds after being stuck out there. And for over 6 weeks, you sent us to find out things on Unify, turns out that Kad is leader of the ship we got sent to, and you paired us up with Garen and Dane." he said and he nodded then.
"Looks like Omega was playing his father and Brazen was Bruck right now, you're me and I'm playing Qui-Gon, but you would never just let me go. You didn't want to leave, but you had no choice in the matter, if Qui-Gon was still alive." his mentor said and he nodded. "And does anybody else feel like we're going in circles here, we're playing back exchanges. That were like when you were still a youngling now, Obi-wan." the second in command said and he nodded.
"And the circle just got cut." the young knight said and he nodded in agreement. "He's at it again, Xanatos is never over, though we killed his son 4 years ago." his mentor said and he nodded. "Yep, he's never over and now attempt 2 now starts, but now, it's a matter of working through this, before it results in both you and me in the confrontation now. If the Chancellor and Sidious are one and the same now." he said and the trio nodded as their mentor smiled gently.
"And now know that's our you, I do, decoded his attempt to destroy us, before make a fatal mistake we do, you have. But our you that is doing the talking, earlier reaction, your alter ego, influenced by Bruck, if still alive he was right now." he said and his young knight nodded. "Yes Master, but my alter ego, to Bruck to the Zabrak, he's Miro's age group, to Sidious. And to our unknown assailant, said could be your age group for all I know." he said and the council nodded.
"What are you thinking about if you zoned out?" his mentor asked and he leaned forward. "That we got another problem, why is it, just as we can return to our ways of peacekeepers. He throws a curve at us, one meant to question my training in your next move. Our next move, almost like he's practically saying he and the Sith are one and the same now. He's, through the chancellor poisoning my training, questioning what you taught me." he said and they nodded.
"He ever consider we don't take the bait when he reveals himself to me, that we know this, we do it his way, and we die. We do it on our time, we win, as we bide our time, till he has every peaceful planet, he turns the galaxy into a dictatorship. As we bide our time, from democracy, to dictatorship and back again, as our allies now. Padme's department and every planet in the galaxy is wanting a shot at him, in wanting to kill him?" he asked and they nodded gently then.
"And only a Jedi can kill him, but not just any Jedi, but the Chosen One." The man said sternly and he nodded. "There are two ways that prophecy can go, he wants the Sith interpretation, where my alter ego becomes his next apprentice. Plunging the galaxy into darkness, and us destroyed, or, we do this our way, fake his purge. Everyone but you, me and Obi-wan go Grey Jedi till after his first weapon is destroyed and we come out of hiding." he said and they nodded.
"Now that you say that, never considered that thought I did, let him think he's won and then at the right time come out of hiding, and once again outnumber them, we do. As switch colors back and join with the Senator's own alliance now, and together we destroy him. After killed so many of us he has." the grandmaster said and his mentor nodded. "He killed father through the Zabrak, that's not going unpunished, but we have to play it smart, but first we have to be sure."
"This whole time, he could be in league with the Chancellor or he is the Chancellor I don't know, though that's true everything we fought for is all naught. We've lived a lie the last 14 years, the Sith have been in control of the Senate all this time. As they're killing us one by one, the them is the Separatists are in league with Sidious, they're wiping out us by this war. Before his final step, seduce my alter ego, Andy, by said power, and then the purge." he said and they nodded.
"Disturbing possibility that is indeed, why, just as we're almost at the end, put you as his personal representative on the council. Could be to have you question what your brother and we taught you, big possibility that is, it could be." the grandmaster said sternly then and his second nodded. "And the emphasis on the 'our' says it all to me, it was close and you break through his attempted manipulations, there's the you we know again." he said and he looked down then.
"Oops, yeah I just realized it now, that wasn't me talking a bit ago, but my alter ego." he said and they nodded. "So your alter ego wanted to be a master and why exactly?" he asked and he sighed. "As a master what area do you have access to that no one else, if not your rank?" he asked and his mentor crossed his arms. "The restricted section of the archives." he said and he nodded. "After mom and Yaddle, third time, he wanted that ability." he said and they nodded.
"Ability?" he asked and he nodded. "The power to save who he cares about by the force, that was the rant he laid at Padme, after doing a Nomi x300. And you and the duo felt the power blast before you found me on Tatooine." he said and they nodded. "Well that explains why I found you on Tatooine, before you sent the message to the council. Andy committed an atrocity that left you beyond traumatized, let me guess the rant was focused on Tru's lightsaber now."
"But to your alter ego, Ferus is everything he hates about me, first Darra and now your mother, he wants the power to save who he loves?" he asked and the young man nodded. "We always did say that if you don't control the last two, they could result in this. That anger and lust for power are going to kill him or worse, cause him to turn to the darkside. If he doesn't control it right now, but safer option by coming to us first here." the second in command said gently then.
"Say that directly to him, after he sees you, Brother, after he realizes you hitched a ride to scan the level of darkness in him, after the power lust corrupts his mind." he said and his mentor nodded. "So on that." he said and his padawan nodded. "You turned her against me!" he said and his mentor said it sternly. "You have done that yourself!" he said sternly to him. "You will not take her from me!" he said, pretending to be his alter ego, and his mentor pretended.
Then, to remove his robes. "Your anger and your lust for power have already done that, you have allowed this dark lord of the Sith to twist your mind. Till now, now you become the very thing you swore to destroy." he said and he growled it. "Don't lecture me Obi-wan, I see through the lies of the Jedi, I don't fear the darkside as you do. I have brought peace, justice, freedom, and security to my new Empire." he said and his mentor said it in shock.
"Your new Empire?!" he repeated in incredulity then and he said it with a warning growl. "Don't make me kill you." he said and he said it sternly. "Andy, my allegiance is to the Republic ... to democracy!" he snapped sternly and he said it in finality. " If you're not with me, you're my enemy." he said and his mentor nodded with a sigh, knowing what he had to do. "Only a Sith Lord deals in absolutes…, I will do what I must." he says as he pretends to ignite his lightsaber.
"You will try." he said firmly and they nodded. "As said I did, the boy you trained, gone he is, consumed by Darth Vader, if that is his name. Annie tried and barely killed he was, stop him you must, know in advance now, Padme is pregnant, must make him weak enough. That baby can do this, before Annie kills Darth Sidious himself." the grandmaster said and his mentor nodded. "Indeed I know, I lost Andy, but I have my family still." he said and the knight nodded gently.
"I was injured, but he barely killed Padme and the baby, and injured me, so you take the limbs off he did me, and I'm growing back my arm, I'm fully human, he's half machine now. I am far more powerful, but saying this now, even a green can go red, if they can't control themselves." he said and and the second nodded. "Your father nearly crossed the line, but Tahl stopped him in time, so first Cerasi, then Tahl, and third times the charm, Padme." he said and the boy nodded.
"Too late, he's too much under Palpatine's influence already, but see the difference?" he asked and the nodded in gentle agreement. "Indeed, you come to me for my guidance to see if there is a way, and truth is your father studied it already. But if Padme is his catalyst for that fall, let me guess, like you he too fell in love with her, while you passed it. Our test 3 years ago, he didn't, as he decided to keep that a secret, you tell us and you elope?" the man said and he nodded.
"Before I made any decision, I decided to tell you now, but that person I spoke of this time is Padme, you know what we mean to each other, we just never said it aloud." he said and they nodded, in relief he admitted it then. "I finally decided I had enough hiding, coming forward, after she told me what might trigger this, in why I need that power. But we're two sides of the whole, I die, she dies, out of heartbreak." he said and the grandmaster nodded slowly at that.
"If she says this later, it's if there was anyway that could cause it, then it's the you we know being destroyed by the power lust, you turning to the darkside. She finds out, she's praying she's wrong, before she hears his words coming out of your mouth. The his being your alter ego, he's lost his mind out of the power lust and I see it immediately. That's the death, your alter ego murdered you for absolute power." his mentor said, crossing his arms and the Master nodded.
"That's why I gave you that Master, just in case, just take my lightsaber if he got his way, and the lightsaber that does, did, the damage to us and the damage to the temple. Killing who knows how many other people, becomes the lightsaber that kills him." he said and they nodded to him then. "Understand we do and take care of baby we will, promise we do." he said and the knight nodded. "He's close to the edge, I'm hanging in there." he said and they both nodded.
"Death or worse, mean you do." he said and he nodded. "I do, Padme was just a means to an end for our Sithmaster, I'm the target, he wants me, as his apprentice." he said and they all nodded sternly. "Over my dead body, you Sith scum." the second in command said sternly then. "Indeed, getting to you over my dead body, he is, star pupil of mine you are, that finally show it now, but first everything on the table needs to be now." Master Yoda said and he nodded then.
"That's actually what I was trying to tell you, Master, her death could be, because she loses me, I die, she dies, and die in child-birth. But it's out finally, it's out, I'm the father, she's my wife, I can't lose her, I won't, because I do and you lose me next." he said and he nodded. "Not allow it to happen I will, if correct you are, then not on record our next move is right now." he said and his mentor and the second nodded in stern agreement, now that the truth was out finally then.
"I was considering in why me, why me, and not someone else, I'm only 23, but is it just you 5 that are masters, when we got 80 more, my team quartet all were. And Obi-wan just got promoted last year." he said and the man shook his head. "We're the Jedi version of the senate Anakin, I was a Jedi knight when I made council, and gained my promotion to master. But the reason for the delay is because I can tell something is on your mind." he said and he nodded.
"It happened again last night, Master." he said and he covered his eyes. "You're having those premonitions of a lost lost one again." he asked, leaning forward and he nodded. "I think my remission is over actually, these premonitions are spelling out my death at the hands. And of my alter ego, though he loves Obi-wan, he wants power, during my quest now in truth. I saw the Zabrak, and my lightsaber red, before coming too and it in blue." he said and he nodded sternly.
"Alright now this is serious, giving you wanted you wanted is a tactic any Sith or dark Jedi uses, you take it you belong to them after that, resist. Whatever you're needing we could have it, but why would that be needed exactly?" he asked and he looked down. "She's pregnant, I'm the father, she's 7 months pregnant, I have only 8 weeks." he said and they nodded in shock. "Sith scum, you are not getting your hands on them!" Jedi Master Agen Kolar snapped in shock then.
"Indeed now I'm worried, what are you thinking if this is connected to why you look like you were up all night, as the last time I saw you looking like this. Said after the Carver, alright what happened now exactly." he said and he sighed. "Nice choice in personal memories the last time we had this heart to heart talk was after my alter ego was pitracing. And got caught by first you and then Obi-wan." he said and his counterpart nodded with a bemused smile at the memory.
"Indeed, and though bemused I knew we had to talk, I was going to send you on that mission anyway with you this restless, before you got targeted by the Carver." he said and he nodded then. "And instead of a simple mission where I can create a ship and you reactivate the piloting program, I'm stuck in a life and death situation with a crazed assassin. And while I was creating revenue to buy a second, he killed our new one." he said and the man shook his head, sighing.
"Master, I don't suppose Master Yoda told you about my latest premonition, has he?" he asked and the dark skinned man leaned forward then. "He said it was about someone's life endanger, why do you ask?" he asked and the young knight leaned forward as he explained. "Today's request to have me join the council is part of Sidious's master plan, you denying mastery. As he throws a carrot necessary for my training, one that Father would have taught me in in truth."
"The heaviness of the darkside surrounds a single decision, a choice between what I told you both to my alter ego turning to him for that intel. He wants the power to save who he loves, if that power is with you, I need that, before he makes his move on us." he said and the second straightened at that news, "But follow through on it now, acting on his offer and it destroys everything we hold dear, or 2) ignore it and it happens." he said and the council nodded then.
"As Jedi masters you have access to the restricted section of the archives, there is something there that finishes my training. Training that Father would have taught me if he was still alive I have need of, but that choice, it means the difference. Between victory and defeat, I get that information, and our Sithmaster lost his only way to seduce me. And to the darkside, following said remember brother, want to return to the Jedi, well then be a Jedi, this is the moment now."
"Well I reached it now, I have only one chance, to outwit them, the Sith and the Dark Jedi, I act on that vision, and we're done for. Father's training, whatever he been studying, is my one chance, as you destroy his chance to get to me." he said and they nodded sternly, realizing this was a trap. "My trial by lava is by that confrontation in the arena, red and blue going at me at once, forcing me to make a choice, I choose you and we finish it together, I choose him now."
"And we're done for, so pre-emptive strike, if Father had the knowledge, that the scales land in your favor and I stay a Jedi. My allegiance is to you, and the republic, to democracy, after last night, I lost my faith in the Chancellor's decisions." he said and the council nodded sternly. "To save your soul, save us, this intel is the only way to prevent a hostile takeover. Yes, it's starting again, Xanatos's formula, no, not you too now, Anakin!" the master said sternly to that then.
"So to base this the way you said now, Andy, I, after turning him into you, you went to confront him, and a fight ensues, I arrive and the trial by lava starts. We have to make a choice, and ahead of time, I chose you, but he throws it in that he has said power. Andy then, in swallowing the bloody hook, crossed the point of no return as he crosses the line. And takes your wrist off, before he blows you out the window." he said and the second nodded sternly in the reveal then.
"I never needed him for that power if you have already, but by that one action he betrayed me, you're my boss." he said and the man nodded. "Boss and the closest thing to a father you have here, but there's the trust, you come to me and we talk this over. But Master, your brother and me together, that saves that problem and we could have the way too. But the healing crystals may just do it as well, so if not one, you have a second." he said and he looked down in relief.
"That's the betrayal though, he betrayed you by siding with him, and cutting my wrist off, and turning on us and you right now. And before he leads the raid into the temple, the kill you is by a life and death fight now, and Obi-wan had to come to your rescue." he said and he nodded. "After a fight to the Death, but Djem So in a Sith's hands, is a lethal weapon." he said and the man nodded. "Nice explanation for what I tell baby next." his mentor said and he nodded gently.
"Andy, that's your alter ego, new name as we call you at times by your nickname." he said and the young knight nodded gently. "Yeah short for Andrus, me, as Jedi me, is deciding to go it this way, after last night's premonition. I tell you, and open up fully, it was time for the truth to come out, and as I told her now in truth. I'm tired of hiding, I don't care you know we're married or expecting right now, that's what brought this forward, she's pregnant, 6 to 8 weeks left now."
"I know what's coming here in what Obi-wan is telling me after council ends, but honestly I must be frank right now Master Windu, we do this, if we decide. Now, to rebel against him inside the capitol, he's got just cause to call treason and that can and could destroy us." he said and Master Kit Fisto nodded gently in agreement. "But last night's premonition suggested what happened yesterday when I failed to recover Dooku, alive, as it's only the beginning right now."
"I'm saying this is Sidious's master plan, make me question everything you trained me to be, offer me my way to save said person, and the finisher is he destroys us. By using my alter ego to do so, after you committed that fatal mistake." he said and his mentor nodded in shock, before he could answer, he felt a massive jolt of fury. "And by you, mean Kit, Mace, Saesee and Agen, you do?" Master Yoda asked him and he nodded gently as he answered him then at that.
"Whoa, yeah I was right, I caught his planning, but I don't recognize the signature." he said and the council nodded in relief he said it. "To answer your question yes Master, he's furious I broke through his attempted manipulation, he's been orchestrating this entire thing and.., oh force. That's it, Palpatine's remark to me the day you made your choice, we will be watching your career with great interest, not I, but we, he's in league, with him!" he said and they nodded.
"Oh lovely, he's furious he got caught and realizes you discover his non force sensitive identity, he just screwed himself over." his mentor said and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker nodded in agreement. "And that explains why he knocked me into the wall on Korriban, to prevent me from catching him in the act too soon. But the blaster, why is Zan Arbor on the planet, but to do her genetic experiments again, the blaster." he said and the duo nodded sternly to the reveal.
"Alright think, think." he said, focusing carefully and then saw something else, his mentor aged 22 years and his other a ghost, seeing his unborn son as a young man that looked like him working at getting his ship ready. 'Luke, you must complete the training.' he heard Yoda's voice say and then heard his son's voice. 'Ah, I can't keep that vision out of my head, they're my friends, I got to help them.' he said, working at getting ship up and ready then.
'You must not go.' he said emphatically and that did it as he said it in frustration. "But Han and Leia will die if I don't.' he said, trying to control his voice then, before the knight heard his mentor's voice aged 22 years. "You don't know that, even Master Yoda cannot see their fate.' he said and he said it gently. 'But I can help them, I feel the force.' he said quickly and Obi-wan said it gently to him as he heard his same tone when he felt scared.
Hearing his voice currently, to that. 'Easy baby brother, I know you're scared, but don't give in fight it, remember patience. It's okay baby, it's okay, we'll get through this together, like we always do.' he heard his voice echoing to him, and he closed his eyes as his mentor exchanged looks with Yoda at that, realizing something else just slammed into him. 'Oh gods, he just had his mind shoved sum years into the future.' his mentor thought, realizing it.
As he heard the exchange between his son and adoptive big brother. "But you cannot control it, son, this is a very dangerous time for you at the moment. When you will be tempted by the dark side of the Force.' he said and he heard Yoda's voice say it gently. 'Yes! Yes! To Obi-Wan you listen, Luke, the cave. Remember your failure at the cave.' he asked and he heard a fast remark as he tried to say it then as he watched things from his position then.
'Son don't, please don't leave wherever you are, just listen to them, don't make my mistakes, I ignored one premonition. And it kills Master Yaddle, I waited too long on a second it kills your grandmother. But third times the charm, if you leave now, he wins and we're further destroyed, have patience.' he thought gently as he heard it from him then quickly. 'But I've learned so much since then, Master Yoda, I promise to return and to finish what I've begun.'
'You have my word.' he said and Obi-wan said it gently to him then. 'It is you and your abilities the emperor wants, that is why your friends are made to suffer.' he said to him and he said it determinedly. 'That's why I have to go.' he said and he sighed. 'Luke, I don't want to lose you to the emperor the way I lost Vader.' he said and he said it gently. 'You won't.' he said to him and he heard the grandmaster say it gently at that remark then at that.
'Stopped they must be, on this all depends.' he said and as he went further as he said it to him. 'Only a fully trained Jedi knight, with the Force as his ally, will conquer Vader. And his emperor, if you end your training now, if you choose the quick and easy path. As Vader did..., you will become an agent of evil.' he said and Obi-wan said jt with word to him. 'Patience!' he said and his snapped it out then as he heard his alter ego's desperation.
'And sacrifice Han and Leia?!' he asked and Yoda said it gently. 'If you honor what
they fight for..., yes.' he said and Jedi knight Anakin Skywalker nodded gently, as he quoted his brother's words with him. 'If you choose to face Vader, you will do it alone, I cannot interfere.' he said to him and his son sighed and nodded. 'I understand.' he said to him then and as he got ready to go, Obi-wan shouted out some minute advice then to him then
'Luke!: Don't give in to hate, that leads to the dark side.' he said to him and Yoda nodded in agreement to him. 'Strong as Vader, mind what you have learned, save you it can.' he said and the image ended. "Anakin, Anakin, you hear me, Anakin." his mentor said, trying in getting his attention before pressing his forehead to his and he closed his eyes then. Seeing his features 22 years younger and buried his head into his shoulder, and he sighed in relief then.
"You okay now?" he asked and the young man nodded. "What the force was that exactly?" Jedi Master Ki Adi Mundi said from the radio. "Flash forward if we do this this correctly, because Andy created a trap for baby and captured my entire family. Same as me, it's the same argument, as you would have said Obi-wan, at the pinnacle of my training. With the twins about to be born, this is a very dangerous stage for me right now." he said and they nodded quickly in shock.
"That's the understatement of the century, but there is no fate but what we make, do nothing, nothing changes, accept his offer, we lose you, fight him." the second in command said quickly and he nodded. "Then one option, get me off the planet, and we create a cross and double cross, but we have to work with the Alliance, they need Jedi. And we're the best of friends with Bail first and foremost here." he said and Ki nodded in agreement as he said it to Yoda gently.
"Force if I ever needed a reason to take your warnings seriously, about having patience before doing anything that was it. I just saw the situation after we got both sides of the alliance together, it's three years after. They ended up on Bespin, my son was in basic training, but not as strong as I am. Yet, my alter ego considered he was not as powerful, to bring me back out now." he said and his mentor nodded. "What see exactly, you did?" Yoda asked him then gently.
"Master first is me, and then my son, that you have this argument with now, same debate 22 years apart, my alter ego captured my daughter and her husband, his friends and Threepio. You were still taking him through creche training, but the quartet walked right into a trap. Only instead, now of what they thought, Damon sent them to his grandson, get him. And head for the fleet, unifying, but like me made the same mistake and barely made it." he said and he nodded.
"Me, as in we, you mean?" Yoda asked and he nodded. "I do, said trap was shoving visions of pain and anguish, and losing control of his telekinesis, he saw the trio. And in pain and dropped Artoo, before collapsing and telling you what he saw." he said and they nodded. "It's me all over again, if you don't head this off now right now, brother." he said and they nodded quickly. "Yes indeed, not losing him, like nearly lost you we had now, enough that is." he said to that, sternly.
"This is too much right now, as you don't have enough to worry about with me, prior to the twins being born. And now my son is having you suffer the same memories of the weeks prior to my turning." he said, looking between his mentor and Yoda and they nodded. "And frankly I don't want to lose him, in the same way I nearly lost you this next few weeks." he said and Yoda nodded in agreement. "It's okay, have patience here, we'll figure it out." Kit said gently to him.
"I know, but if the crystals don't even work, what's my next option here?" Anakin said him and he nodded. "Certain Jedi studied force healing, but if you're right then we have to use both combined together, but you're under enough pressure and stress as it is, but patience. We'll figure it out right now, but there's a catch, but though you pulled through your training. This is a very dangerous time right now for you." Jedi Master Shaak Tii said gently and he nodded then.
"Was Father one of them?" he asked and they nodded. "Looks like the added side effect has you seeing their force ghost now, you're conscious inside the force." he said and they smiled in relief. "Is it possible to learn this power' 'Not from a Jedi', nice try you old fool, I just learned this power from the Jedi, they win, me-me, I stay a Jedi. But Andy, he's Darth Vader now, but do that, I truly am an only child, and an orphan now." he said and Yoda nodded gently as he said it.
"I could practically hear your voice de-aged to now Obi-wan, after dealing with Yaddle, remember my reaction, after Zan Arbor got her hands on me. Us three trying to convince him not to leave wherever, but if even I can't head it off he's more reckless then I am." he said and Yoda nodded gently in understanding. "Understand we do, but like Obi-wan said dangerous time for you, where tempted you will be, patience, you must have." he said and he nodded, sighing.
"Well this was why I seeked your counsel, a few options ones necessary to prevent their future from coming to pass. As the twins are raised together, Solo is taking her to the fleet, Luke is in hiding on your sanctuary planet, in training. But it's a trap, Vader is doing what Sidious was doing, push him into a fatal mistake, and it's me all over again. But at my current level and knowing she's pregnant." he said and they nodded in agreement as his mentor said it gently.
"This is a very dangerous time for you right now, where you'll be tempted by the darkside, there's a few options to consider, she'll be okay. Just have patience and trust us, we know what we're doing Anakin." he said and Yoda nodded in agreement then. "Indeed two months we have, so have patience you must." he said and Anakin nodded. "Okay then, we can fix this 8 weeks ahead of time and you're in split in two." Kit said and Yoda nodded as his mentor said it gently.
"Alright now I see the problem, Master we reached the final stages of his planning, Anakin's reached the peak of his training. Combined with that is his premonitions are acting up again, he can't keep that vision out of his head here, or her screaming." his mentor said and they nodded. "What's that mean exactly?" Jedi Master Agen Kolar asked and he said it sternly then. "I mean this is what was bringing his son out of hiding, after his sister and her boyfriend got caught."
"By his alter ego, our Sithmaster wants his son, the same way he wants Anakin now, his powers and force connection, in his hands that's a dangerous weapon. But this in truth is the most dangerous time for him now, he's resisting as hard as he can." he said and Yoda nodded in stern agreement then. "His trial by lava begins now, but though very strong after 13 years, this is a very, very dangerous time for him now." Kit said gently and Yoda nodded in agreement then.
"Brother listen to me, please, blast it, if this was your son and I'm saying this to him later, this is the most dangerous stage for both of you, you dealing with her pregnancy. Him, I think it was a trap our Sithmaster had intended to catch cub now, but this is very dangerous time for you now. Said where you are to be tempted by the darkside, so we just have to keep you away from him, you're coming with me on mission." his mentor said gently and the trio nodded in agreement.
"He's either in league with 'him' or he is 'him', I don't know, but we have one chance to get this right, right now, I just need that information. If father was the one to study it, I get that I stay me, if this skill had my son seeing our souls together. As one, if we been killed, and I'm being honest, she's pregnant, I'm an expecting father. We got another month, 2 at most and baby is born, I'm also married, but that woman I spoke of is my wife." he said and the council nodded.
"I know you three were the most concerned about me, leaving me alone with her, well we decided to rather then a public marriage to elope. But we're waiting till the war comes to end, to reveal it, and I chose to now, with her pregnant, but we been together for 3 years." he said and he and Yoda nodded at the news. "I knew leaving you alone resulted in you choosing the right path, you chose to rather then letting it control you, to tell us." he said and he nodded gently.
"Well though we told you, both sides now we decided to elope, and wait till now to reveal it to our parents, as we do that, after he thinks he's won, get married in secret. Wedding after this ends and the twins are 2 months old." he said and the council nodded. "Fair enough and that explains things here we tell the twins that, but this was to protect her now. Can't do a public wedding or the attacks just get even worse." Jedi Master Shaak Tii said and he nodded to her.
"If your thoughts are headed in that direction then yes, we eloped, when I brought her home." he said and the duo and his mentor nodded as his mentor sighed in relief as he looked down in relief. "We knew yes, but we were waiting to hear it from you, so you and the Senator have been together for 3 years and your last furlough resulted in you becoming an expecting father. Alright then, the truth is out now, and now that you told us, we can make another exception here."
"For you." Jedi Master Saesee Tiin said gently and his counterpart nodded. "I was waiting to hear that, like before, invite the master in, and you furthered that now. By inviting us in and by trusting us with your personal life and after Zan Arbor and Darra was killed now. So your alter ego is your twin brother now." The second in command said and he sighed in relief then. "I'm withdrawing my current rank, I wish to be a padawan, again now, I know I got orders to stay."
"But quite frankly, I need your guidance Master Windu, after the Carver, and our talk, I remember what you and Thracia once told me. I'm not ready for full mastery just yet, I'm also not ready to let go of my partnership with Obi-wan, I want to be a padawan again." he said and Jedi Master Mace Windu nodded as his eyes gentled. "Quite frankly that's the beginning of the catalyst for my attempted downward spiral now, after Ferus resigned." he said and he nodded.
"But who of the four of us lasted the longest, if we stuck to tradition, when the training was the most pure in the code. Like you had it, only we added a new one, team trios I was the youngest of mine, and Father left Obi-wan in charge of taking care of me. But while they had to wait, my future was secured in Obi-wan, keeping us together now." he asked and Yoda nodded gently. "You and Obi-wan, that would be now, of your quartet, only you and Obi-wan in truth now."
"The tradition of staying together up till 26, you have kept now here, along with true loyalty to your team, like said I did, deepest commitment, the most serious mind. Proved that you did, your loyalty, to me, to Mace and your brother, beyond question, it is. And chosen the right path you did, by telling us the truth, a soon to be father you are and married you are. So point proven, greatest young knight you are." he said and Mace nodded in agreement gently then.
"And you're starting to sound like Qui' now, so return to the code, who we were, before the war turned us into soldiers?" he said and his mentor nodded. "Exactly, some of us Jedi have families, so we return to who we were, before Palpatine took office again. But a few updates on the code, return to the 13 to 27 year age line, before full mastery at 35 years old. Us members with a family, we train our children, and you continue with the creche training, I think the reason here."
"That he beat us was while they changed and evolved, we never changed at all now, so we fix that and when he is too old to use anything, but force lightning. Then we make our move, as we find young applicants all over the galaxy, and train the next generation." he said and they nodded. "And 2) was I had to tell you this now, because if he reveals himself to me and we act immediately, and instead you confront him in my idea here, we're done for, but we have resist."
"But I need you more then ever now, because this whole thing in why Grievous escaped, again, could be the last piece to his plan." he said and his mentor nodded. "Are you saying he's using a pattern only Master, Obi-wan and I know?" Mace said and the young knight nodded. "They all are, distraction and diversion, so separate us and then reveal himself." he said and Yoda nodded sternly. "Disruption, demoralization and distraction: Xanatos." Mace said and Yoda nodded then.
"Disrupt in asking us for the real help, need you do, demoralize by having us deny you by your rights to be a master, and then distraction by separation that by time get back, your brother and I do, make his move and lose you we do, that it you think." he asked and he nodded. "I do, and only one chance, but 'he's' dead, as is Dooku, leaving only one person left, our Sithmaster. But the diversion could, this time, kill the entire order, if we don't do this." he said and he nodded.
"The crystals are a danger Master, put into the reactor it could cause a thermonuclear meltdown, and my apartment is in eyesight of the temple." he said and Mace nodded quickly. "She sees that and she'll think you were killed in the raid!" Shaak Tii said quickly and he nodded. "He's not killing my babies out of a miscarriage here, we have 6 weeks and we're both. Before the purge going on sabbatical." he said and Mace nodded sternly. "Done." he said and Yoda nodded then.
"Agreed we never fell for it then, so why would we now after Qui-Gon read out the formula to me, before we checked the reactor, so leave one crystal in there and we take the others. And go into hiding, and bag up our texts, as we hide and train the younglings." Kit said and Mace nodded sternly in agreement. "Well first we got to make him think he's won, and then with these being clones, our mind tricks." he said and Yoda nodded in agreement to his opinion smiling.
"We also have all of you change colors, true Jedi to him are blue, green and yellow, so everyone go Grey Jedi, leave it to Obi-wan, Master and me, 3 on 3. If my alter ego is his intended target, his original apprentice is being hunted down by Ahsoka, I'm watching the Chancellor. So if he and Sidious are one and the same, he's never going to win this, because my alter ego. Turned twin brother is now his apprentice, his original dead, and there we go." he said and Yoda smiled.
"This Zabrak must be his version of me, your alter ego is you, and he's Qui-Gon." his mentor said and he nodded. "And his own mentor is Master Yoda, but our team lasted the longest, we're his biggest enemies and the one thing standing between him. And galactic domination, so I can play 2 brothers, me being your padawan I'm with you, my twin is here. And when the cameras are off, it's just us as you ease the stress, by sparring when me." he said and he nodded then.
"Wait a second." he said and then mimed slicing his neck and the light went off in response and his mentor nodded. "Kill the camera, what is said in session is not to be on record from here on out, right now." Mace said in understanding and he nodded. "Exactly, I'm adding another 5 years to my training, I graduate at 28, Jedi knight for 5 years and master 33." he said and the council nodded. "Well I know what this means, just a youngling again." Mace said with a fond smile.
"Masters, with my being playing 2 brothers, I declined, before going back in the morning, and reveal that he had the wrong twin." he said and Mace nodded at the idea. "Declined you did and refused we had, before he tries again with Andy we accept, but not lightly tomorrow. Indeed, very good idea that is, decided to be the one in charge, you have, be my spy. And accept you did immediately, only it's in reverse, and feeding his arrogance he is, at the current moment."
"You, listened to me immediately and told us you did, that just as we're ready to return to our code, threw another curve at us he did, by placing Andy on the council. And allowing this lightly, the council does not right now." Yoda said, smiling then and he nodded. "Just something father would teach me in team trios, but Mother, Obi-wan and Ferus are unifying. Father, Siri and I are living, so if he and the girls were alive, I'm going with his idea right now on, get in by trouble."
"But yeah, but 17 year old me, in my 23 year old body again." he said and his mentor shook his head smiling. "I have to change clothes after this meeting is over, but for the rest of the day, I'm me as me, Anakin, tomorrow the charade begins. As for the rest of the two months I'm playing two brothers now, so when the camera is off, I'm me. When on I play two brothers, Miro, turn on the internal coms in the council chambers." he said and the light switched to blue at that.
"Hold on." he said and pulled out a hair tie and tied his hair back, before creating a braid. "Obi-wan." he said smiling and he smiled as he gave him a clipping of his hair, and he tied it into his braid again and tying it closed. "There we go, back to padawan again, only you look like a 23 year old padawan." Shaak Tii said smiling and he nodded as he sat there. "Yeah if things stayed on path, I'm now a 23 year old padawan, and only a few years left and on the home stretch."
"But not ready to let, not yet, he understands my attachment and shares it." he said and Kit chuckled at that. "Force, you look like your 19 year old self again." Mace said smiling and he nodded gently. "Yeah once I change clothes, I'm looking like I did 9 years ago, but never mind staying a knight, I'm back at your side, brother. Deepest commitment, most serious mind, being on my own is lonely, without someone to travel with, so back to being a team again now here."
"After Ahsoka quit, it's lonely right now, with us this close to the end, it's time I withdrew from my current rank, and return to who I am now, your padawan my brother. I'm returning to your side for another 3 to 4 years now here, but another 4 years padawan. Then make knight at 32 and master at 35, just like you, as the twins are 10, and know their father is a true Jedi Master, of the old." he said and his mentor smiled then and Yoda shook his head smiling at that news.
"And that proves it even more, you're our pride and joy, you're everything that envelopes a true Jedi, once the war is coming to an end, you decide no more. Return to being a padawan, and retake your place at his side, as you finish out your 13 to 14 years together now." Mace said smiling gently then. "I don't doubt Darra would choose the same with Soara if she was still alive, but if those two ever cared at all about Siri and Ry', it's now that the war is over here now."
"Or coming to an end here, it's time to withdrawal from being knights and back to being padawans again, because that choice read it out now, you're more Jedi then either of them. If you decided to immediately give up your rank and return to my side." his mentor said and Yoda nodded in agreement. "And the you I know again, that is, changing appearance, return to your training, you do, and return to Jedi way, before gets what he wants now, he does indeed now."
"Sound like Qui-Gon you do indeed, but the you I know again Anakin, that is now, and Qui-Gon, indeed would go with wait and see if he attempts something, while in the meantime. Suggests that prepare accordingly, and if what about to say you do is my thinking. Creating a very strong sedative and in suspended animation put themselves in the Jedi still here at the temple, they do. Because Jedi are not gone, if anything about to say it, I have." Yoda said sternly and he nodded.
"I been listening to him way too much when you came into my life, but the expedited trials was the darkside, and Ferus and Tru brushed it on Korriban, Sidious was on the planet with us." he said and they straightened at that news in shock. "Yes now I'm really worried, as they let their lust to graduate to knight cloud their judgement and it kills Darra. And you're still grieving at losing her, before the back to back mission, but not again." his mentor said and Mace nodded
"Masters, honestly every time I disappeared on you when we were here, is I'm spending much needed time with my wife right now, our last furlough, 9 months ago. Resulted in my babies, she's pregnant, we don't do something about this, as I study the Jedi version. To what our Sith offered me, my alter ego is going to him and that could kill us, as he first betrays me. By siding with him and the killing me, is by said fight to the death between us." he said and they nodded.
"Indeed, prevent that we will by erasing his bargaining card for you, we shall." the grandmaster said and he nodded. "Like you both said, you don't want to lose my son, the way you lost my alter ego, to him." he said and they nodded. "Indeed, you, like your baby, we don't want to lose to that Sith scum the way we lost your alter ego or…." Kit started to say at that gently then. "My twin brother is my alter ego, so lose us, the way you did him." he said and they nodded then.
"The you we know that is again, see it I do, alright so remove the bottom card of his house of sabbacc cards we will, and start rebuilding, he will have to. But once attempted mutiny is complete, disappear we will and train baby to be as skilled a Jedi as you. As baby learns the truth in his trials of our history with this Darth Sidious." Yoda said and he nodded gently. "He's not getting to me, I'm staying a Jedi, I just have to get through this." he said and they nodded.
And as they saw him acting like himself again, in relief. "So the truth is out now, thank you for telling us and we can grant another exception, am I to assume the mother is.." his mentor said gently then. "Yeah brother it is, you knew all along, true, and were waiting for me to say it, but I'm saying it now, it's Padme." he said and they nodded gently. "We understand and thank you for telling us this, I understand your visions are getting worse." Mace said gently and he nodded.
"Excuse my attitude a bit ago, I had a very bad night rest last night, but that vision was like the ones on mom and Master, before they both died at the time." he added and they nodded. "They started a second time Anakin, like your mother?" his mentor asked and he nodded. "Yeah they did brother, but back to situations this morning." he said and they nodded. "You're under enough stress as it is, but this is too much, I'm getting worried, brother." he said and Anakin nodded.
"And there's the title we started calling each other by all our lives: brothers, we are brothers, I could never more kill you then I could myself, but to get this right. You're going to have cut my alter ego out by the roots and then lock the door." he said and his mentor nodded. "I already lost Siri and Adi, not to mention Qui-Gon, I'm not losing you and Padme as well. So as I said, been trying to act like Qui-Gon, well I'm not failing you." he said and the young knight nodded.
"If it went that way, you never failed me, I failed you, but Vader, that's possibly my alter ego's Sith name now, allowed Sidious to twist his mind. And till now, now he becomes the very thing I swore to destroy here, I have to turn my alter ego real. Only then will the prophecy become complete, destroy them and bring balance back to the force." he said and the council nodded. "Leaving him a way to clone you, we have you and you're split in two." Kit said and he nodded.
"Looks like the old fool never expected you to be this open with us, and tell us what's on your mind, before the final piece of his planning comes into play. As we give you what he intended to seduce your alter ego with and you stay you now." Shaak Tii said sternly and Yoda nodded in agreement. "The me you know, to be precise, but everything you would have told my kids in what happened to me is all true, from our viewpoint." he said and Yoda nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, but there it is, children you have, married you are, so how soon?" he asked and he smiled. "That's 6 to 8 weeks left Master, but my family are your strongest students now." he said and Yoda nodded gently. "Bad side effect that is at times, because restless they get like you till something like Carver happens, they do. And lay the next lesson down, before reckless they get, but indeed, your son, anything like you he is, and trouble ahead I see." he said and he chuckled.
"You always said my son is too much like me as it is, but being a possible unifying, if even I can't stop him from leaving, it's driving the point home, but the story is my alter ego. He's my twin brother, so you were training both of us, my alter ego is Bruck, I'm Obi-wan. But in the weeks leading into their birthday, the fear of losing their mother started getting to him. Claiming he had the power, the Sith said he had it, and without thinking to ask you, the council now."
"He swallowed the fish hook, and nearly killed what's left of the the council here on Coruscant, I come home and see he betrayed me, killing you. As my friends, my mentors and I went to hunt him down, we got into a fight and he barely killed me. You came after me, as you did the same injuries he did me, and for further emphasis. As he ended up in that body suit, after landing too close to a molten river, and he was gone." he said and Yoda nodded gently in understanding.
"And I think I know where they sent them, if there is a molten river, of lava, they're going to Mustafar." he said and he nodded. "Makes perfect sense, I went after you, tried to dissuade him from the darkside, we got into the most heated sparring match we ever had. Andy landed too close to the river of lava, his clothes caught fire, as he pulled himself away from it. The change had been burned into him forever, he was Vader, without a trace of Andy Skywalker left in him."
"As Obi-wan and I took you and Padme to the Alderaanian medical department, we grew back your limbs and you recovered. Fire and ice, red and blue, we're blue so Hoth, red is fire, Mustafar, so there we go, as your daughter's husband said. He'll see you, whoever it is, in hell, and Mustafar is as close to it as you can get now. His soul got consumed by a demon now, you barely made it out and survived, as you're in recovery from the fight." Mace said to that news.
"Nice story, I just tell that to them, and we keep to it, the you we know is this you." his mentor said in approval at that in relief, knowing that worked better in why he was looking. Now, like he got severely injured and ended up in the said black bodysuit and Yoda nodded in agreement. "Works better that does, but turn your alter ego real, we must now in truth here, and as I said, now, the boy your brother trained, gone he is, consumed by his own alter ego, find you now."
"We, your brother and I, must, as distract Darth Sidious I do, your brother, comes to get you and Padme and take you to safety, he does and we will, before lose you. Now, we do now as well, but you this, you that, my pride you are, that to me, training your twin. That dangerous it is, too much like his adult self he is, that if Bruck, still alive he is, then influenced him too much. Like Sidious has done, he has now." he said gently and his mentor shook his head smiling then.
"To give my alter ego, my twin, a name now, his name is Andrus, nickname of Andy, I made Knight right on time, before resigning that title and went back to padawan. While coming with you to wherever he is right now, so as you said, it's very dangerous putting him. And Palpatine, together, I don't think he can handle this, this mission, I don't trust the chancellor with him." he said and Mace nodded sternly. "Agreed, I don't trust him." he said and they felt a flinch at that.
Through Anakin. "Andy heard that." Shaak Tii said and he nodded. "Yeah, but Andy is still a padawan, he's entering his trials now, not done yet." he said and they nodded. "More like 3 years too early after Ferus tried to put the blame on you, and Andy wanted to be a knight. And at 19, but I decided he wasn't ready, you spent the last 4 years under me and graduated. At the time last year, before Ahsoka was in testing to be your apprentice." his mentor said to that then.
"And truth we can tell babies now, you, their father, graduated on time you did, and are now undergoing advanced training for color definition with Mace, but Andrus. Not ready he is, until control his impatience and temper, stay a padawan, he will." Yoda said sternly and they nodded in agreement sternly then. "So Andrus Darian Vander Skywalker, take the middle initials, and we have Darth Vader, there we go." Kit said and Yoda nodded in agreement to his opinion then.
"Andy is being trained by your brother still right now, but you just completed your training in one on one, and now I do your color coding as you're a lighter tinge in my color. He never understood what the 3 piece warning meant, blacked out and we felt the blast." Jedi Master Mace Windu said and he nodded. "And you thought I was bad, that wasn't me at the pits, I was at the junk pile, he did the racing and exposes us to another one." he said and he nodded then.
"And to repeat that exchange, Andy Skywalker has been with us 3 years, and has shown himself a capable student, more then capable. Brilliant with abilities we have all hoped to seen developed and controlled, as what is seen as bright youth. Tarnishes with age and crumbles in maturity, a Jedi is allowed no such weakness, Andrus what is your error." he said sternly and they felt a secondary flinch at the talking to, knowing he was likely to be expelled at that.
"And you thought I was bad, as a youngling, my projects never got attention by assassins like this, I may have missed racing. But you and Clee were about to reactivate the piloting program so I can loose my energy on the track that way up at the satellite." he said and Mace and Yoda nodded in agreement. "That's safer then being below the sun barrier, and with a lunatic like this on the loose, baby." Depa Billiba said over the radio and Mace nodded in agreement.
"Younglings, but at that age, your interests in mechanics were slightly aggravating, but at least your droid projects were not breaking anything here. And again why would you want to grow up that fast as soon you don't have us to fall back on. So enjoy our partnership while it lasts, the only reason we take it slow, is because pushing too hard. And too fast, could do more harm then good, my star pupil, but that exchange, we're asking for trouble." Shaak Tii said with a smile.
"And said another one, is another threat like Ona Nobis, so said fight on possibly Mustafar caused him to end up in said bodysuit, is the result, I, through Obi-wan, tried to dissuade him. From the darkside, through Obi-wan, we got into the most heated death match we ever had. He lost, landed too close to whatever caused it, and I took his lightsaber, grabbed you. After he nearly killed you and left him for dead as we healed your injuries." Mace said to him at that.
"You're our pride, you're like Obi-wan, but to be perfectly honest, your twin is too full of anger and hate, to be ready for full mastery or even knighthood, you're ready. But learning from me, you channeled those emotions into the blade and became your own master. By creating your own variant of Djem So now." he said and the young knight nodded, smiling. "Well, I got an idea, Sidious never considered my clothes now could be said signal, I can change outfits."
"And dress in a variant to Obi-wan's, just in my padawan style clothing and milk chocolate robes and there's my Jedi self, Andy is dressed as me currently." he said and they nodded. "Nice thinking, we know who's who, Andy has said mission, you followed orders and stay here. Or we sent you with your brother, and you go to wherever Grievous is hiding right now." he said and the knight nodded gently. "This is going to be a long 6 weeks." his mentor said to that remark.
"But that's why I wasn't in the mood to go to him, he ordered me to do something you always told me was wrong, but this feels like a trap." he said and he and Yoda nodded gently to him then. "No mercy killing this was or self defense, ordered you to…." Yoda said gently and he looked down and they nodded in understanding. "Okay it is, tried to resist him you did, fix this we can, and come to terms with it in time, you will." he said gently and he nodded as he said it.
"The others were all self defense, mom, I blacked out and he, Andy, went crazy and killed them." he said, trying to control his voice and his mentor nodded. 'Force, what the hell has been going on when we're not together, alright that's enough of this already, it's okay son.' Mace thought sternly to the news. "I know you felt that, both of you did, but my mother passed right then, I was too late, and she died in my arms." he said and they nodded gently at the news.
"Looks like…" his mentor started to say and closed his eyes as Kit started shaking in laughter and he nodded. "Yeah the loophole, you told me to protect her, in order to do that, I go where she goes, and she went to help him." he said bemused and they nodded smiling. "If you have twins, the girl is too much like her mother, that her brother is coming along. And before her husband calls out to them to wait." Shaak Tii said laughing and he nodded with sigh then.
"If this is what had you and Obi-wan worried sick about Father, I get the point, but you may have only one chance. To prevent this now, I can save my family by that key, whatever Father was studying. But I know what you're about to ask me, but before you do so, Master, there is one thing I wish, one that can prevent his attempted seduction to the darkside. I can study that, and then split myself in two, and me, your me, stays a Jedi, like you would say to my son now."
"Very powerful Jedi, cunning warrior, the best pilot and a very close friend to you all, I have family with you, you mentor my children. But you know me better then anyone, you know and knew what happened to me, leading into their birthday. To keep the story like you told them, I need that information and then I can do my mission now. Before he tries a coup, and we live on, as we go into hiding now." he said and the council nodded as Yoda sighed in relief he said it.
"Did Palpatine act strange when he ordered you to kill him, if that's what happened?" Jedi Master Saesee Tiin asked and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker nodded. "Yeah he sounded savage, after he condemned him to death." he said and Kit nodded. "Savage like an animal?" he said and Anakin nodded. "What are you thinking?" Jedi Master Agen Kolar said and he said it. "We're saying this is following a pattern the trio all remember." Anakin said and he said it sternly then.
"Oh my gods, it's Xanatos all over again, we just made it, so said power now we just give it to you and we win, Anakin what do you need, what is this really about!" his mentor said gently and the council straightened at that. "After two instances of these things, it's happening a third time, but in his eyes third time is the charm, disruption, demoralization, distraction, time is up. But I know, and I stand only one chance, Brother, but was father studying a way by saving someone."
"By use of the force, that maybe the only way so you never lose me now, Obi-wan, losing me to him, so your remark to my son never happens here, only you can save me now. I need that information, only then, can we split the difference, I stay a Jedi, Sidious gets my alter ego. And as his new apprentice, but you never lost me to him, doesn't that matter more. Then fighting a war that destroys the republic, turning it into a dictatorship." he said and Yoda froze up at that.
Realizing their conversation hit the table. "Master I must be honest, but did you say that to Nejaa, after he said the same thing?" he asked and he froze up at that. "Thracia?" he asked and he started shaking at that, realizing the implication then. "What about Ki, Damon, Tiana?" he asked and Mace nodded sternly, realizing what he was implying. "She's pregnant, the baby is mine, you know who I mean Master Yoda: Padme." he said and he went pale at that in shock.
"Padme's pregnant, the baby is mine." he said and they nodded in shock then. "This entire war was a Jedi trap, he's destroying us one by one, till the next month. But you have only one chance to get it right, I just need said key to save her and you win. Is there a way to save someone by the force, that is my only chance, save her, you save my baby. And you save me and we live on in a new version of the code." he said and Mace sighed in relief as Yoda said it.
"So premonitions, on her, they focus?" he said and Anakin nodded. "Last night, when Obi-wan left you alone, he knew the Senator was close by, so you could spend some alone time together." Mace said and he nodded. "Yes Master, he knew, I know you were waiting to hear it from me and aloud well, I'm saying it now, she is pregnant. The baby is mine, last night I gained a premonition of her dying in child birth." Anakin said and he nodded gently to him at the news.
"Alright then, we will waive the violation with the fact you told us now, so that's off the table, with the fact your family is now the strongest we have in the order." Mace said and he nodded as he hid a sigh of relief. "Well that's what has me annoyed, you as human Jedi masters all share one thing, said are we are what once we become your padawans. And Nejaa and Damon keep calling me the said title right now, and to you I am said?" he said and Mace crossed his arms.
"You become our children, son or daughter, we would do whatever it takes to help you, and this is one of those times, if you need my help, I will do it, before he gets what he wants." Mace said and Anakin nodded. "And that's just the problem, but during the exchange, I swore not to let this last one turn true, not only is she pregnant, but my entire new family is her. And my unborn baby, or babies, if she is carrying twins." Anakin said and he nodded sternly at the news then.
"Easy fix Anakin, we got the study guide." Kit said to him gently then. "Third times the charm, Master, I acted on Yaddle it gets her killed, I didn't act sooner on mom and she dies. But my one chance is by that power, if said is why Sidious had father killed, I get that, she survives. I stay myself, and you win right now, the Jedi beat him, before he gets what he wants here. But I think that was bait, offer me said carrot, and then use that to trigger our downfall now in truth."
"My alter ego is going to think that going to the darkside is the only way to save her, but do that it could kill her anyway. But I am a Jedi, my alter ego took him at his word, you are my family, I'm a padawan." he said and Mace nodded sternly then. "I lost the girls, I am not losing you as well, don't listen to him, Anakin, I have that power, we always did. Qui-Gon did that study, we'll save her, but we're not losing you next." he said and Anakin nodded in relief then he said that.
"Thracia was serious when she said that about you, you never understood what it means to fall in love, or have children, I'm about to become a father. My premonitions could point to my own self destruction, and could kill her if they do." he said and Obi-wan covered his eyes, in relief he admitted it then. "Then prevention over cure is the only way to go Padawan." Mace said and he nodded. "I'm returning to that title as well Master." he added and the council nodded gently.
"I withdrawal from my current status, my mentor is a member of the council, me in training." he said and Mace nodded. "Very well, Padawan Skywalker, you are a padawan once again." he said and he nodded. "And there's something we normally never see, most padawans never just want to withdrawal from being a knight after just making one." he said and he nodded. "I know, but remember your and Thracia's lecture after the carver." he said and Mace nodded gently smiling.
"Enjoy these years while they last, as soon we're not there for you to fall back on." he said and Anakin nodded as Obi-wan smiled at the new maturity in him, now that he told them the truth. "I been listening to you way too much lately, but at that rate, before I complete Ahsoka's training, I need to get through this last hurdle next right now. But you just saved me now my brother, but my alter ego, said battle will get heated." he said and he and Mace nodded gently.
