"Father Please!!!" Luke cries as Anakin stood there watching on in disbelief. He was on a pedestal surrounded by lava and black fog as images began forming around him.
Tuning his gaze to the left he saw Obi Wan lightsaber ignited looking at him in mental pain with tears streaming from his eyes. "You were my brother Anakin!"
With a quick jolt he felt a soft hand grab his shoulder. "No, stop come back!" Padmé's voice says causing him to look at her tear filled face. "I love you!" To his right he heard the mechanical breathing.
As he turned once again he saw the Emperor's face looking at him in concern.
"It seems, in your anger... you, killed her." He says. The vision of the emperor fades as a new vision of a viewports from within the Death Star fades in. Through it he could see Alderaan.Next to him was Leia looking at him in horror. "No!" She pleads to him. "Alderaan is peaceful, we have no weapons, you can't..." A green Laser blast cuts her off as Alderaan is destroyed.
Anakin stumbles back tears streaming from his own face as other voices begin plaguing his mind. "Anakin Please!!!" Padmé's voice rings out. "Master Skywalker there are too many of them. What are we going to do?" A childs voice says. Finally he looks to see the Emperor towering over him in anger.
"The Force is strong with you!" He shouts before blasting him with a storm of Force Lightning.
Anakin wakes in his sleeping bag, sweat pouring down his face. Their Face's, Their Voices, He can remember them all. All of the men, women, and children he slaughtered in cold blood. All of those he hurt. Obi Wan, Luke, Leia, Mace Windu, Shaak-Ti, Madam Jacosta, Cin, The Younglings, and his angel Padme, the list goes on and on. All of them suffered because of me.
Anakin gets up, noticing it will be morning in about an hour. He decides that he'll pack his things up and get ready for initiation. He wraps up the sleeping bag, grabs his robes and walks over to the changing room. Once changed, He puts his night wear in his bag and walks to the lockers. They were given lockers yesterday by Glasses, where Anakin finally found out that her name is actually Glenda. He grabs his Lightsabers and belt while putting his things in the locker. Before he closes it, He grabs the Scroll thing The students were given and checks the time. 6:00 am. The Scroll is an object that functions as a collapsible, holographic tablet. It is capable, among other things, to function as a phone, a portable computer, a camera and a streaming device as well as a gaming controller. Glad I memorized that from Glynda, I'll try to figure out the written language here with this thing. At some point. The thought left him with an odd sense of confusion. He reaches into a pocket pulling out a wallet and looks at the ID he had woken up with in this world. He found that he could read it perfectly yet turning on his scroll he couldn't make out the words on the holographic screen. It was odd and confusing.
Shaking his head Anakin decides to head to the cliff stuffing his wallet and Scroll into his pocket. He overheard some second years talking about it the day before. It wasn't far from the school. When he get there he could see a bunch of metal platforms in the ground. He ignores them and sits on the ledge looking down into the vast forest below. It went on for miles filled with bright green trees and grassy hills. Soon he found himself looking up and watching the sun rise. While he sits there he thinks back to what has happened since waking up in this odd world. Soon his thoughts went to the gap in his memory from yesterday.
A monster Rex had said. There was no doubt in Anakin's mind as to what happened. He turned into Darth Vader. The one name he never wanted to hear again. The name that he will always be remembered by. The name that brought nothing but pain, for his son, his daughter, his brother and mentor, and his wife. When Rex told him that he turned into that monster again, all of the pain came back to him. As he sat here watching the sun rise, his thoughts drift to his son and daughter again. What are they doing, how are they, are they happy?
"Its beautiful, isn't it?" Ozpin's voice says cutting through his thoughts. Anakin turns to see Ozpin and Glenda walking over. Ozpin looks over to Glenda and she nods leaving them. Ozpin, coffee mug in hand walks over and sits on the ledge beside the troubled Anakin. Anakin could smell the hot chocolate in the coffee mug.
"It almost looks like the ones I've seen..." He pauses almost forgetting the cover story. "From a place called Naboo." Anakin decides.
"You look like your worried about something." Ozpin says ignoring Anakin's statement. Anakin was a little shocked he saw it, but he was not going to lie to him. I'm getting tired of all the lies. Anakin thought.
"I'm worried I'll become what I use to be." Anakin explains vaguely. Glancing at Ozpin's face he could see the older man intrigued expression.
"Well, are you trying to stop that?" Ozpin asks.
"Y-yes." Anakin answers a little hesitant.
Ozpin takes a sip from his coffee mug before he responds. "Then you will be fine." He assures.
"How can you be so sure" Anakin questions.
"Because your past doesn't define who you are," Ozpin explains. "It just gives you the starting point for who your going to be."
__________________________
A while later, Rex woke up to some girl yelling. "Wake up lazy bud!" When she yelled he shot up from his sleeping bag and drew his blasters at her out of pure reflex. She didn't even notice as she was pestering some kid in green with black hair plus a single strand of pink.
He holsters his blasters and got up. Looks like I fell asleep in my Armor... or what armor I have anyways. The chest Piece is comfortable, and the most important, so having that as the only piece he has is perfect. Though Rex did hope to rebuild his helmet again. With those thoughts Rex packed up the sleeping bag and went to the locker room to place the bag in his locker. Afterwards he went to the canteen for some breakfast rations. When he got there, he realized they didn't have rations, but actual food. Suffice to say it was gone real quick. Afterwards Rex just wandered the courtyard till Glenda called for everyone. He was told to meet at the cliff, so that's where he went.
