A Lighter Ending (continued)
It is a dark time for the Jedi. Darkness is approaching. Not from the Sith but from something in the temple. Grand Master Yoda has sensed that it is a person that has darkness but is unable to figure out the puzzle. A Jedi Padawan was recently killed by this mysterious person.
Supreme Chancellor Bail Organa has ordered Clone bases across the core to be on high alert. Furthermore, his term is coming to an end and the Jedi feel darkness in the next Supreme Chancellor election.
Fearing for a new Clone Wars. The Jedi have begun to focus on their training but one question still remains. Is the threat from outside the temple, or from one of their own?

Anakin felt troubled. Tomorrow was the anniversary of the end of the Clone Wars and a big parade was planned but…. All he felt was darkness. Something tugged at him and told him that something bad was going to happen. He looked in the mirror and wondered if this was an omen for his death.
"Father. Let go, you have nothing to worry about." His daughter said from behind him.
Leia was nineteen now and Anakin could hardly believe it. She had also been recently appointed as the Jedi's representation in the senate. Not bad for a teenager.
"You don't understand the situation enough to make assumptions. I fear we cannot feel safe any longer." Anakin said.
"Yes father. I feel it but… I guess I don't feel it to the degree that you do." Leia said.
"You will feel it in time my young apprentice." Anakin said.

Mace Windu and Yoda were out to lunch discussing the darkness. Yoda could feel it all around him and it seemed to haunt him like the Clone Wars.
"What should we do about this darkness?" Mace Windu asked.
"Already in motion, it is. Come to us it will, hmmmm." Yoda said.
"So we are still doing the parade right?" Mace Windu asked.
"Disappoint the citizens, we cannot. Suck it up for them, we will." Yoda said.
"So….." Mace Windu began.
"After lunch, talk about it we will. Changed my mind, I have. Want to enjoy lunch, I do." Yoda said.

"So is everything all set? Is the plan still on?" Cad Bane asked.
"Yes. The Jedi Council will not see this coming. They feel too safe." The cloaked figure said.
"You want the same target. Is he still the one to die?" Cad Bane asked the figure.
"Yes. I have sent five thousand credits to you as a down payment and I have a ship waiting for you in the factory district. Once the target is dead I want you to run." The figure said.
"Got it boss." Cad bane said shutting off the comlink.

Obi-Wan and his wife Ticarti were holding a party at their apartment. The kids, Luke, Leia, Shaak, Ticarti, and some kid named Ezra were gossiping about the happenings in the temple while the grownups were in more serious talks.
"I don't like this," Anakin began, "the dark side is too strong."
"I feel like Master Yoda is wrong. It might as well be an artifact of the dark side under our temple." Ticarti said as she watched her daughter talking to the other kids.
"Master Yoda can't be wrong." Padme said.
"He's Eight-Hundred and Ninety Six years old. He could be wrong. I do think we should trust Master Yoda though as he has been through more than anyone here at the temple." Ticarti said.
"I'm going to have my lightsaber ready at the parade." Anakin said.
"I agree." Obi-Wan said.

As the parents had wrapped up their conversation. The kids were only taking off.
"And then suddenly a B2 Battle Droid came out of nowhere and I had to flip over it and slice it in half. I guess the Trade Federation still keeps those things active even though they aren't supposed too." Luke Skywalker said.
"Tell them about the Droideka!" Leia said. She loved this story because it was exciting but also because she was there.
"Leia and I were suddenly surrounded by those ancient droids. Suddenly our father came out of nowhere and threw these grenades that deactivated them. It was so cool. The final shutdown of the Trade Federation was my favorite mission!" Luke said.
"Definitely. The satisfaction of seeing Obi-Wan bring the slime ridden filth out to us in handcuffs was amazing!" Leia said.
"I can't even imagine what it was like fighting in the Clone Wars!" Luke said.
"I don't think you would survive another Clone War." Leia said making the others laugh at Luke.
"Well at least I'll die as a hero." Luke said smiling back at Leia.
"You should have been born to a smuggler." Leia said.
A voice out of nowhere interrupted them. "Alright everyone. It's time to go back to the temple. Parties over."
