Obi Wan and Ahsoka had split up.

Obi Wan had gone to the fathers temple and Ahsoka had gone to the sons own temple.

Obi Wan had meet and talked to the daughter again and she had showed him the sword that was the only chance of controlling the son. After that they went to the sons temple.

While Obi Wan and the daughter had got their hand on the sword, Ahsoka had focused on getting to the sons temple and saving Anakin and Padmé.

When Ahsoka arrived at the temple she found herself in a arena of some sort.

She saw Anakin standing with his back toward her.

Anakin! There you are. Said Ahsoka.

I'm I a good master Padawan? Said Anakin in a strange voice.

What? Ehh, of course master your the best.

Ehh. Always so snippy. Said Anakin.

Skyguy.. What's wrong with you? Asked Ahsoka almost afraid.

Argh! I hate it when you call me that! Screamed Anakin as he turned around.

What she saw shocked her to the core.

Anakin was standing before her with sickly yellow eyes and a hateful expression.

AHSOKA! IT'S A TRAP! She heard Padmé screamed.

What? More she didn't get to say because Anakin launched at her and then the battle began.

Anakin's attacks got more aggressive the second went by and Ahsoka had trouble keeping up with his moves.

///////////////////////////////

Meanwhile the son and daughter was fighting their own battle against each other.

They were throwing lightning at each other and the electro pulses got so intense that that were thrown into the walls behind them.
They got up again and circled each other.

Then Obi Wan ran into the room and saw the fight.

Were is Anakin! Asked Obi Wan.

Hahaha... Right behind you... said the son.

Obi Wan turned around towards the glass window and saw Ahsoka and Anakin fighting.

He ran through the door and onto the arena platform.

He saw Padmé and immediately ran to her and released her from the ropes then he ran to Ahsoka to help her.

Hi master, so nice of you to join us. Said Anakin in a sickly sweet voice.

It was now that he saw Anakin's eyes. Oh dear. Thought Obi Wan.

They were both trying to keep up with Anakin's attacks but he seemed to get stronger by the second.

Suddenly the son and daughter was thrown into the glass wall and landed on the arena floor.

They all jumped out of the way.

Finally the father jumped out after them.

Stop it now! He shouted.

You don't understand old man! Screamed the son angrily. Ahsoka tried to attack him but he used the force to lift her of the ground and threw her behind him with the force.

The son walked towards him.

Then Obi Wan took out the sword from the altar.

You showed them the altar?! Asked the father the daughter.

I'm sorry father but I didn't know what to do! Said the daughter.

Ahsoka, we can control the son with this sword! said Obi Wan as he threw the sword to her, but before she could take it Anakin jumped between and took it and landed beside the son.

He looked at them touting for a second before turning back to the son.

He stretched his hand who was holding the sword towards the son. He hesitated for a second as if the real Anakin was trying to break free. But then the hope broke and he gave the son the sword.

The son laughed a little then he said.

Hmm... Your usefulness has come to a end. Said the son as he placed to fingers on Anakin's forehead, then Anakin's eyes rolled back into his skull. (Or whatever you say.)

And his body fell to the ground... lifeless...

ANAKIN!!! Screamed Padmé, Ahsoka and Obi Wan. They ran to Anakin's body and knelt down beside him.

The father walked toward the son.

When the father was right in front of the the son he said, Why?

You don't understand! Said the son. He took out a sword and prepared to stab it into the fathers abdomen but before the sword could stab the father, the daughter rushed between them and saved the father... by taking the burn herself.

Argh! Yelped the daughter.

NOOOO! It wasn't supposed to be like this! Screamed the son.

He screamed and transformed to the bat version of himself and flew away.

The father took the sword out of her stomach and lied her down beside Anakin. I have destroyed everything. He said.

Father I'm... sorry. Said the daughter. Shhh. Whispered the father.

Noo! Anakin! Said Obi Wan with a tearful tone in his voice.

I'm sorry their is nothing you can do... He is dead. Said the father.

No! Whispered Padmé and Ahsoka.

The daughter tugged at the fathers sleeve and pointed a weak finger at Anakin. And said. I will sacrifice myself for him.

No I can't lose you to! Said the father.

You must let me go! Said the daughter in a strained voice.

... Fine... My beloved daughter...

The daughter took her fathers hand and the fathers took Ahsoka's hand and Ahsoka took Padmé's hand and Padmé took Obi Wan's hand who placed to fingers on Anakin's forehead.

They saw they all saw the daughters life energy flow through them and then into Anakin's dead body.

Then Anakin flowed white for a few seconds then the daughter died.

Nothing happened then but then a few seconds before Anakin started to cough and breath heavily.

Then he asked, what happened? ... We will tell you later on the ship. Said Obi Wan.

You must leave the planet immediately. The balance is broken and my son will try to leave the planet with your ship.

They nodded and walked the long journey back to their ship. And on the way to the ship they told Anakin what had happened...
