《Star Wars: Downfall》Star Wars: Downfall Part 6
Advertisement
Ahsoka POV:
I sensed Obi-Wan approaching us so I tried to stall as much as possible. Obi-Wan would know what to do, they don't call him the negotiator for nothing. I just don't understand why Anakin wouldn't listen to me. Did he not love me? Was he just being stubborn? I get that he wants to save me, but maybe this is what he saw in his visions. Maybe he saw me dying because he wouldn't listen to me?
I stepped closer to him, and then closer until I was face to face with him, "Anakin," I grabbed his hand, "Just come with me."
Obi-Wan POV:
Master Windu said he and the other Masters were on their way to arrest the Chancellor, that's where I'll look first. I sprinted as fast as I could all the way to Palpatine's office, feeling Anakin's and Ahsoka's presence more and more as I neared it. I saw the bodies of my fallen Masters as I entered the room, my heart sank as I saw their blank and lifeless expressions.
I slowly walked in further and what I saw was unbearable.
3rd Person POV:
Obi-Wan's heart broke at what he saw. In front of him Anakin and Ahsoka were in an embrace, Palpatine standing behind Anakin, his lightsaber through them both. "NO!!!!!!!!!" Obi-Wan shouted at the top of his lungs. Palpatine pulled his lightsaber out of the two of them, pushing Anakin down, causing him to knock Ahsoka over as well.
"He had such a potential. But he was blinded by love. And now you Master Kenobi... Look at you. You're all alone. You have no one. First your Master, then your love, now your apprentice and fellow Masters. Do you really think you can stand against me?" Palpatine was smiling, the way he always does, like a monster.

Obi-Wan began holding back his tears of sadness and anger through clenched teeth. He grabbed his lightsaber, trembling with emotion, "I will do what I must."
Palpatine cocked his head, "You will try Master Kenobi, you will try." He then lunged at Obi-Wan, to which Obi-Wan replied with a quick block. The two exchanged attacks back and forth, fast and wildly. Obi-Wan managed to graze Palpatine's arm, but Palpatine just kept up his attack. Neither man was willing to back down, nor defend, just attack at the same time.
Obi-Wan held Palpatine at a stalemate and summoned up the strength to force push him, but the Palpatine sent it back at him, throwing Obi-Wan into the wall near Anakin and Ahsoka. He struggled to his feet, beaten and bruised, "You won't get away with this Palpatine." He ignited his lightsaber and forced Anakin's to him, igniting it as well.
"You underestimate the power of the Dark Side!" Palpatine screeched as he attacked Obi-Wan.
"Just as you misplace your faith in it!" Obi-Wan replied. Obi-Wan began his attack quickly and fiercely, his anger was growing inside of him, and Palpatine sensed it.
"Yes," he locked Obi-Wan in a stalemate, "use your anger to defeat me Obi-Wan. Let your hatred fuel you to victory."
Obi-Wan kicked Palpatine in the shin, "No," as Palpatine bent over Obi-Wan kicked him in the chin, "you're not going to convince me to do anything!"
He was on the ground now, lightsaber astray, and Obi-Wan was pointing his at him, "This is over Dark Lord. You have failed. I am placing you under arrest!" but before he could act, Palpatine summoned his lightsaber and cut off Obi-Wan's legs.
"No Master Kenobi," he stabbed him through his heart, "You have failed." Palpatine then kicked him off of his lightsaber and watched his lifeless body fall to the ground.

Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.2
Technically abandoned. I will be reposting an updated version of the story one chapter at a time. When the System came to Earth, it changed everything. It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike. What had once been fantasy was now a reality. People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest. "Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation" It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers. Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars. All it asked of them was for their help. Help with what though? The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard. On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary. That this was the day everything changed. Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world. However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial. (Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.) A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find. Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system. Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!... With the system's arrival so too does great danger come... The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system... Please note, I don't own the art. Please enjoy the story, and if you don't please leave a comment and I will try to improve the story for you. This is the second version of this story, so feel free to check out the original and compare the two.

But when Cael inadvertently sets off the end of the world, he will have to choose between a government that could avert world annihilation but that holds sinister motives, or the equally vicious rebel group that would sacrifice everyone for what they call liberty, even those Cael holds dearest.
