Anakin exited the elevator, with Senator Palpatine behind him. Master Windu had sent him to coax anything out of the old Senator, for his suspicion had grown, for a reason Anakin didn't understand,but he did as he was told. "Young Skywalker" Palpatine said. "You are the Young Apprentice of Jedi Master Obi-Wan, are you not?" "Yes sir, he has taught me a lot, yet there is still much for me to learn from him" Anakin replied smoothly. "I heard you're on the Council, but not yet a Jedi Master?" " Yes. I am on the Jedi Council, and will work hard and earn the right to be called a Master. they believe I need more time. And it is only right for.me to go by what they say" Anakin said. He was starting to get defensive, and the Senator could sense it, but little of that did Anakin know. "The force is strong in you, young Skywalker" Palpatine commented with his raspy voice. Anakin stayed silent. "You thoughts and feelings of confusion and frustration are strong " "How would you know that?" Anakin asked, as he placed his hand on his lightsabor. "I know things" Palpatine whispered. "You are very eager, Anakin, for what, the Force does not show clearly " Anakin ignited his lightsabor, which gave off a soft, reassuring hum. "Ah... that weapon is your life. You should not loose that, like you lost your mother." " My mother will not be brought into this" Anakin replied calmly. "Mmmh... your feelings are now clear" the Senator smiled with pleasure at him." You should not have feelings like that" Palpatine purred. "You may be the Senator, but you are much more. You are a Sith, and I am arresting you" Anakin declared. "Tsk take tsk. To bad. I refuse to be arrested. You will have to kill me. I know of your dreams Anakin. I can help you save her" cooed Palpatine. "I-I cannot believe you" Anakin stuttered. "If you refuse to be arrested, so be it" The Sith brought out a deep red lightsabor and laughed. "Silly boy! You underestimate the power of the Dark Side" Palpatine lunged and Anakin blocked, throwing him off balance, he kicked the Sith in the chest. Anakin jumped after him as Palpatine slowly rose from his place on the floor. Chuckling, he fought Anakin; lunging, thrusting, sparing., and blocking while he tried to persuade Anakin to join him.
During the battle, Yoda sat, meditating. Windu walked in, with Obi-Wan trailing behind. "Confused, misled, stressed, yet confident, young Skywalker is. Mmhm..." Yoda murmured. "Where did you send him?" Obi-Wan asked Windu. "To question the Senator, of course" Mace replied. "If he comes back with word of success, I will gain trust in him" Obi-Wan didn't reply, and went off in search of his Apprentice.
When Obi-Wan came across sounds of yelling near the elevators, he started to run. He ignited his lightsabor as he turned the corner. He heard a voice talking while two weapons clashed. "Please boy, listen. Have mercy. Drop your weapon, I can help you" it was the Senator. "N-no! I don't want your help! I don't need it! If you refuse to be arrested, and would rather fight, then you must die!" Obi-Wan heard the tremer in his voice and began to run faster. He turned another corner just in time to see Anakin be electrocuted as he thrust his blue weapon into Palpatine's chest. Anakin fell to the ground as they both went limp.
Obi-Wan rushed forward and put his fingers up to Anakin's pulse. It was there, but just barely. Obi-Wan picked up the two 'sabors and hailed down a medical Droid.
When Senator Amidala heard about what happened to Anakin, she got more worried as the day progressed. The queen decided she would be sent to go take care of Anakin, like he once did for her. Padme's thoughts were all about Anakin on her way back to the Jedi Temple. The Queen had given her 3 days to watch over the wounded Jedi. Padme hoped and prayed he was alright. She didn't want to go throught child birth without her husband.
Once she arrived at the infirmary, she set off to find room 216. When she found it, she was greeted by Obi-Wan. "What in heavens are you doing here?" he asked her. "Are you giving birth? I can find a Droid for you" "No Obi-Wan" she smiled. "I'm quite alright. Where is Anakin? " At her words, his expression reflected hers, worried. "You've heard already? Well, honestly, I haven't seen him since I hailed down the Droid and they took him away. they wont alow me to visit him.yet. I'm hoping he's alright. so why are you here? you can't be just looking for Anakin? Arent you working for the queen? And doesn't she know you're pregnant yet?" Obi-Wan asked. "Well. no. She does not know about me being due soon, and actually she sent me to take care of.him for a few days. She knows how we're good friends. She is also very fond of him..." "oh. I see" Obi-Wan said. " Here, sit with me. I'm waiting.too"
