Star Wars: the Chosen One

Entry 17

Hey guys :) Well this is it, the end of the story . This one is a really long one, because I wanted to get all the details right. It took awhile to get it all, but it's done now :) Hope you all like it! enjoy!

Remember I own nothing! All the credit goes to George Lucas and all the other amazing people that made this series amazing :)

My old apprentice, my son, my friend, my brother…I remember staring at the security hologram and seeing his face after he’d turned; I remember seeing him kill Jedi after Jedi, swiping through them like they were nothing, but my brain didn’t want to register it.

“Obi-Wan,” Master Yoda called.

I knew what he was going to say to me. Before he could ask it of me, I feel on my knees and pleaded with him. “Send me to kill the Emperor, I will not kill him! I cannot!”

“Strong enough to fight this Lord Sidious, you are not,” Yoda said.

“He’s like my brother. I cannot do it,” I informed him. And then, he said the words that broke my heart into a thousand pieces. The full weight of what he was asking of me, of what I would have to do bore down on me until I felt I couldn’t breathe.

I knew where I had to start looking for him. I went to Padme’s apartment and asked her where I could find him. She kept saying she didn’t know where.

“He’s in grave danger,” I told her.

“From the Sith?!” she asked, turning back to face me.

“From himself. Padme, he’s turned to the dark side,” I said. I heard my voice as if it was very far away. I couldn’t bear to see the pain I sensed on her, so I walked passed her. I covered my mouth and closed my eyes at the horror of what I was going to tell her.

“I have seen a…security hologram of him…Killing younglings,” I finished in a murmur.

“Not Annie! He couldn’t,” she whispered.

“He was deceived by a lie…We all were. It appears the Chancellor is behind everything, including the war. Padme, Palpatine is the Sith Lord we’ve been looking for. After the death of Count Dooku…That’s when he became Palpatine’s new apprentice,” I explained to her.

Once I looked back, I could see the careful steps and plans that Palpatine had thought of. He was the ultimate deceiver, fooling us all.

“I don’t believe you,” Padme murmured. “I can’t…” she whispered. She fell to the couch behind her and stared off into space, revealing…

“Padme, I must find him,” I pleaded with her.

“You’re going to kill him, aren’t you?” she asked, looking at me like I was a stranger.

I couldn’t bring myself to answer her directly. Hearing the words out loud…Knowing full well what I had to do…It was too much to bear.

“He has become a very great threat,” I replied.

“I can’t,” she whispered, turning away from me.

I stood up and finally could sense the extra presence I should’ve known was there before.

“He’s the father, isn’t he?” I asked her.

She looked at me in the eyes once, before looking away.

She never answered.

“I’m so sorry,” I said, but it seemed those words weren’t enough to help ease the burden of what was happening. I hid in her ship because I knew she’d go to him for comfort.
