Episode III Audio Book

Hmm, Hörbuch is nicht schlecht, gute Quali, eigentlich sehr verständlich. Der Atmosphäre gegen hat man im Hintergrund ne Geräuschkulisse und Musik wird manchmal auch eingespielt. Der Sprecher verändert seine Stimme immer leicht, abhängig von den Charakteren, bei Grievious wird seine Strimme sowieso ganz elektronisch verändert. Werd sicher noch ne weile brauchen alles durchzuhören.
 
hier für alle die noch nicht das hörbuch angehört haben, was zum nachlesen ;)

5th Update:

Mace: For all of your power, you are no Jedi. All you are my lord, is under arrest.

Palps: Do you see Anakin, Do you? Didn't I warn you of the Jedi's treason?

Mace: Save your twisted words, my lord. There are no politicians here. The Sith will never regain control of the Republic. It's over. You've lost. You lost for the same reason the Sith always lose: deafeated by your own fear.

Palps: FOOL do you think the fear you feel is MINE!
"I-I can't" says Anakin
"Of course you can" says Sidious
"I came to save your life. not to betray my friends" says Anakin
"What friends?" says Sidious
Anakin could find no answer

"And do you think that task is finished my boy? Do you think killing one traitor will end treason? Do you think the Jedi will ever stop till I am dead?
"It's them or me Anakin. Or perhaps I should put it more plainly. It's them or Padme`.

The duel went exactly as spoilers say. Mace and Sidious fight. It goes outdoors and back again. Anakin comes in and chops off his hand and Sidious throws him out via force lightning. RIGHT after Anakin pledges himself to the sith and Palpatine sends him to kill the Jedi and says the "SHOW NO MERCY" speech from the trailer. He said after that go to Mustafar and wipe out the sepratists. And its the duel that makes Sidious's face ugly.

The novel implies he was NOT faking defeat also.

Gate Master Jurokk: "Anakin, what happened? Where are the Masters?"

Vader: "where is Shaak Ti?"

GMJ: "In the meditation chambers- we fealt something happen in the Force, something awful. She is searching the force in deep meditation, trying to get some feel for what is going on..."

"Something has happened, hasn't it?"

GMJ: "Anakin, what's going on? Something's happened. Something horrible. How bad is it?"

The last thing Jurokk felt was the emitter of a lightsaber against the soft flesh beneath his jaw; the last thing he heard. as blue plasma chewed upward through his head and burst from the top of his skull and burned away his life, was Anakin Skywalker's melencholy reply.

Vader: "You have no idea"
ORDER 66:

Cody withdrew the comlink from his armor and triggered it. A holoscan appeared in the palm of his gauntlet: a hooded man.

"It is time" the holoscan said "Execute Order Sixty Six"

Cody responded as he had been trained since before he'd even awaken in his creche-school. "It will be done, my lord"

Cody was a Clone. He would execute the order faithfully, without hesitation or regret. But he was also human enough to mutter glimly "Would it have been too much to ask for the order to have come before I gave him back the bloody lightsaber...?
-----------------
(he had recovered it for ObiWan earlier in the chapter)
More Order 66:

The Clone Wars were the perfect Jedi trap.

By fighting at all, the Jedi Lost.
With the Jedi Order overextended, spread thin across the galaxy, each Jedi alone, surrounded only by whatever clone troops he, she, or it commands. Wat itself pours darkness into the force, deepening the cloud that limites Jedi perception. And the clones have no malice, no hatred, not the slightest ill intent that might give warning. They are only following orders.

In this case, order sixty six.

Hold-out blasters appear in clones hands ARC-170s drop back on the tails of Jedi starfighters. AT-STs swivel their guns. Turrets on hovertanks swung silently.

Clones open fire, and Jedi die.
All across the galaxy, All at once.

Jedi Die
=======================================================
Questions answers.
the Yoda vs. Sidious has Yoda thinking and realizing that the Sith have adapted and changed with the times as the galaxy changed but the Yoda has been teaching the Jedi just like his masters taught him and the Jedi have never changed with the time or adapted expect for Qui-Gon and he decides its best to escape because if he dies this relezation he discovers would die with him.
Yes. WHen in the temple Obi-Wan gets all emotional and upset and breaks down. Yoda stays calm during the whole thing and wacks Obi-Wan hard as he can in the chest with his stick to make him get control of himself.

One of the best parts was Artoo & Threepio on Mustafar. One of the only times they arent used as comic relief. Artoo goes to Mustafar with Anakin(or should I say Vader) and is left in the jedi starfighter. He witnesses the Padme, Obi-Wan, and Anakin fight right before the duel. And THreepio overhears it from the ship. After Obi-Wan and Anakin go off to duel Artoo gets out and tries to drag her to the ship but he is having a lot of trouble. Threepio comes out of the ship hoping things are safe and sees artoo doing it and worries about Padme getting even more injuried and says:

Threepio: Let me help. We'll carry her...together. *picks up Padme*
They eject Yoda in a pod. It is never said why or how Dagobah is picked. Also Anakin is sent to Mustafar by Palpatine. Palpatine tells the CIS he is sending them a gift. Anakin takes Artoo with him there but before he goes he stops at Padme's apartment to tell her where he is going. Artoo talks to Threepio and tells him of how Anakin has changed and won't even talk to him anymore and that he seems scared. (All said from Threepio's reactions of course)
A cool thing is when Threepio is heading off the ship to see artoo trying to carry Padme he translates what Artoo is saying to Padme which is "It's all right....you'll be all right...."
The senate scene with the Empire being declared is good. Sidious gets everyone all excited and states the Empire will stand for 10,000 years and says this will be national "Empire Day" from now on. When Yoda confronts him he says
Palpatine: Ah, Master Yoda. May I be first to wish you a Happy Empire Day!
You see clone troopers slaughting younglings and Anakin killing a master protecting them. The slaughter is never shown from Anakin's point of view other than when he kills the guard Jedi at the temple doors. After that we see no more till Bail arrives and asks the troopers what is going on and they wont say. Bail sees a youngling get shot and fall out of a temple window and crash to the ground. The troopers say Bail saw too much and chase after him to kill him.
Sidious says to the suited vader "Lord Vader...lord vader can you hear me?"
Also we see SIdious(the ugly deformed one) RUN! It is also why he doesnt chase after Yoda. As yoda makes his getaway Sidious senses Vader is in mortal danger and sprints off running to get a ship to rescue him.
Anakin vs. Obi-Wan has some diolouge. Not much though. At the end of it they get chatty but the main middle part they don't speak much.
They didnt have a reaction for Sidious. Also Sidious didn't seem to have time to react or care that Yoda lived. He had a Sith to save. Also by the end of the novel Obi-Wan & Yoda believe they are the only two jedi left alive. The Jedi Purge is considered the ending part of the Clone Wars. Not something AFTER it.
Jinn is exalted as what the new order of the Jedi should follow after and in the 19 years till ANH Jinn will teach Yoda & Obi-Wan on how they the Jedi should be and how they should train the Jedi. And of course how to retain their idenity. Luke is the first of the Jedi to be trained in the Qui-Gon style and it obviously worked.
After Mace there is no more seducing. Anakin asks Palpatine to be a sith and right after he is knighed Darth Vader.
Retaining your idendity is so powerful because its eternal life which is just what the Sith want more than anything but only a Jedi(A Qui-Gon styled Jedi) can have it. The Jedi have what the Sith want and the Sith can never have it. THAT is why is is powerful.
"What was different about Luke's training from that of Obi-Wan and Yoda, except that Luke was trained in his twenties? "

To follow the living force wherever it may take you, not rules and regulations. To have love and compassison not detachment from all.
============================================================
------------------------------------------------------------
Bail is now on the Tantive IV. He is walking in on a conversation between Obi-Wan and Yoda, who are standing in the docking bay just outside Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter.

"... I suppose. If you don't mind riding on my lap." -Obi-Wan

"That may not be necessary. I've just been summoned back to Coruscant by Mas Amedda. Palpatine has called the Senate in for an extraordinary session. Attendance is required." - Bail

"Ah. It's clear what this will be about." - Obi-Wan

"I am... concerned it might be a trap." - Bail

"Unlikely, this is. Unknown is the purpose of your sudden departure from the Capitol. Dead, young Obi-Wan and I are both presumed to be." - Yoda

"And Palpatine won't be moving against the Senate as a whole. ... at least not yet. He'll need the illusion of democracy to keep the individual star systems in line. He won't risk a general uprising." - Obi-Wan

"In that case ... perhaps I can offer your graces a lift." ? Bail
----------------------------------------------------

The clones are swarming the Jedi Temple, several batallions on each level. They're preparing the bodies for identification.

Everyone MUST be identified, and troopers keep coming up missing.

Dead troopers are being found in closets in groups of five.

"It's one thing to know a friend is dead, Master Yoda. It's another to find his body." - Obi-Wan

"This wound, no blaster could make." ? Yoda

Bail is being told to leave the Temple, just as in the novel scans thread. A young Jedi boy came out and killed a few clones, and then was shot to pieces by the troopers.

Organa is calling Antilles to get him off planet.

SENATE:
"These Jedi murderers left me scarred, left me deformed, but they could not scar my integrity! They could not deform my resolve! The remaining traitors will be hunted down, rooted out wherever they may hide, and brought to justice, dead or alive. All collaborators will suffer the same fate. Those who protect the enemy ARE the enemy. Now is the time! Now, we will strike back! Now, we will destroy the destroyers! DEATH to the enemies of democracy!" - Palpatine, address to the Senate

"This has been the most trying of times, but we have passed the test. The war is OVER! The Separatists have been utterly defeated, and the Republic will stand... united! United and free! The Jedi rebellion was our final test. It was the last gasp of the forces of darkness, and now we have left that darkness behind us forever. A new day has begun. It is morning in the Republic." - Palpatine (continued)

"Here is comes." - Padme
"Here WHAT comes?" - Bail
"You'll see." - Padme

"Never again will we be divided. Never again will sector turn against sector, planet turn against planet, sibling turn against sibling. We are one nation, indivisible. To ensure that we will always stand together, that we will always speak with a single voice, and act with a single hand, the Republic must change. We must evolve! We must grow! We have become an Empire, in fact! Let us become an Empire in name as well. We are the first Galactic Empire!" - Palpatine, continued

(the Senate chamber goes wild)

"What are they doing? Don't they understand what they're cheering for?" - Bail

"We are an Empire that will continue to be ruled by this august(?) body! We are an Empire that will never return to the political maneuvering and corruption that wounded us so deeply. We are an Empire that will be directed by a single sovereign chosen for life! We are an Empire ruled by the majority! An Empire ruled buy a new constitution! An Empire of laws, not of politicians! An Empire dedicated to the preservation of a just society! Of a safe, and secure society! We are an Empire that will stand ten thousand years! (the Senate is cheering incessantly at this point) We will celebrate the anniversary of this day as Empire Day, for the sake of our children, for our chilren's children, for the next ten thousand years! Safety, security, justice and peace. (the Senate went berserk). Say it with me: Safety! Security! Justice! and Peace! Safety, Security, Justice, and Peace!" - Palpatine

The Senate chanted along, until it seemed as if the entire galaxy was all chanting at once.

"So this... is how liberty dies. With cheering and applause." ? Padme

"We can't let this happen! (stands up) I have to get to my pod. We can still enter a motion." -Bail Organa

"No! No Bail, you can't enter a motion. You can't! Fang-Zhar (sp?) has already been arrested. And Tuntra Domay (no idea how to even begin spelling that one, lol). It won't be long until the entire delegation of 2,000 are declared enemies of the state. You stayed off that list for good reason. Don't add your name by what you do today." - Padme

"But I can't just stand by and watch-" -Bail
 
6th Update:

"Right, you can't just watch. You have to vote FOR him." - Padme

"WHAT?!?" - Bail

"Bail, it's the only way. It's the only hope you have of remaining in a position to do anyone ANY good. Vote for Palpatine. Vote for the Empire. Make Mon Mothma vote for him too. Be good little senators... mind your manners, and keep your heads down. And keep doing all those things we can't talk about. All those things I can't know. Promise me, Bail." - Padme

"Padme, what you're talking about ... what we're not talking about ... it could take twenty years! (EU reference!!!11) Are you under suspicion? What are YOU going to do?" - Bail

"Don't worry about me. I don't know that I'll live that long." ? Padme
---------------------------------------------

Vader talking to Sidious via hologram from Mustfar after killing the Separatists:

"The Separatist leadership is no more, my master." - Vader

"It is finished, then. You have restored peace and justice to the galaxy, Lord Vader." - Sidious

"That is my sole ambition, Master." - Vader

"Lord Vader. I sense a disturbance in the Force. You may be in danger." - Sidious

(Anakin recognizes Padme's ship landing outside, and thinks "In danger of being kissed to death, maybe" to himself)

"How should I be in danger, Master?" - Vader

"I cannot say. But the danger is real. Be mindful." - Sidious

(Anakin's thoughts: Be mindful? Be MINDFUL? Is that the best you can do? I could get that much Obi-Wan.)

"I will, my Master. Thank you." - Vader

The hologram dissipates. Anakin stands up, and says to himself: "You're the one who should be mindful, Master. I AM a disturbance in the Force."
-------------------------
As Vader approaches Padme's ship, he switches back into Anakin mode, making sure that he gives no hint to her of what just happened. He let Anakin's love flow through him, and "reassembled his Anakin Skywalker face."

He didn't think she'd like the way he "redecorated" the control room. His thoughts: After all, there's no point arguing taste!

Before anything was said, it just cut to Palpatine's office... (cue suspenseful music).
----------------------------------
Location: Holding Office of the Supreme Chancellor

A circular preperations area, where guests may be entertained before entering the senate chamber itself.

The transmission to Vader is just completing. The Royal Guards, dressed in red, stand on either side of the room.

As the hologram fades out, another presence is revealed. This time, a physical presence. "Tiny, and aged. Clad in robes, and leaning on a twist of wood."

... to be continued.
//cue suspenseful music again
------------------------------------------
But his physical presense was an illusion. The truth of him could be seen only in the Force. In the Force, he was a fountain of light.

"Pity, your new disciple, I do. So lately an apprentice, so soon without a Master." ? Yoda

"Why, Master Yoda, what a delightful surprise. Welcome." - Sidious.

The voice of the shadow hummed with anticipation.

"Let me be the first to wish you HAPPY EMPIRE DAY!" - Sidious.

"Find it happy, you will not. Nor will the murderer you call Vader." - Yoda

"Ah. So THAT is the threat I felt. Who is it, if I may ask. Who have you sent to kill him?" - Sidious

"Enough it is, that you know your own destroyer." ? Yoda

"Oh, psh, Master Yoda. It wouldn't be Kenobi, would it? Please say it's Kenobi. Lord Vader gets such a thrill from killing people who care for him." - Sidious

Mas Amedda is in the shadows, near a doorway. Palpatine whipsers to him: "flee." He did.

"So easily slain, Obi-Wan is not!" - Yoda

"Neither are you, apparently. But that is about to change." - Sidious

Sidious takes two steps toward Yoda.

Yoda ignites his lightsaber.

"The test of that, today will be." - Yoda

"Even a fraction of the dark side is more powerful than your Jedi arrogance can conceive. Living in the ilght, you have never seen teh depth of the darkness. (he raises his arms) Until now." - Sidious

Lightning spews from his outstretched hands.

The battle is on.

//cut to Mustafar
------------------------------------
Padme stumbled down the landing ramp into Anakin's arms. Her eyes were raw and numb. Inside the ship, her emotional control had finally shattered.

She was so grateful that Anakin was alive.

And she was excited that he had come running to greet her.

"Anakin... my Anakin. (crying) I've been so frightened." - Padme

"Shh... shh. It's alright." - Anakin

He stoked her hair until her trembling began to subside, then put his hand on her chin and leaned in for a kiss.

"You never need to worry about me. Didn't you understand... no one can hurt me. No one will ever hurt either of us." - Anakin

"It wasn't that my love. It was, oh Anakin... he said such terrible things about you." - Padme

"About me? Who would want to say bad things about me? (chuckles) ... who would dare?" - Anakin

"Obi-Wan." ? Padme

Padme wiped tears from her cheek.

"He told me you had turned to the dark side... that you... murdered Jedi. Even younglings." - Padme

She looked into his eyes, but did not see love. Only reflections of lava.

But instead of denying his turn to the dark side, or the muder of younglings, he said:

"Obi-Wan's alive?" ? Anakin

Anakin's voice became much deeper and colder.

"Y-yes. He... he said he was looking for you." - Padme

"Did you tell him where I am?" - Anakin

"No, Anakin! He wants to kill you! I didn't tell him anything--I wouldn't!" - Padme

"Too bad." - Anakin

"What" - Padme

"He's a traitor, Padme. He's an enemy of the state. He has to die." - Anakin

"Stop it! Stop talking like that! You're frightening me!" - Padme

"You're not the one who needs to be afraid." ? Anakin

"It's like... it's like (tears flow) ... I don't even know who you are anymore." - Padme

"I'm the man who loves you! I'm the man who would do anything to protect you! (clenches teeth; frustrated) Everything I have done, I have done for YOU!" - Anakin

"Anakin... (now a whisper) what have you done?" - Padme

"What I have done... is bring peace to the Republic." - Anakin

"The Republic is dead. You killed it." ? Padme

"It needed to die." - Anakin

New tears started. But it didn't matter. She'd never have enough tears for this.

"Anakin, can't we just... go? Please... let's leave. Together. Today. Now. Before you-- before something happens." - Padme

"Nothing will happen. Nothing CAN happen. Let Palpatine call himself Emperor. Let him. He can do the dirty work. All the... messy brutal oppression it'll take to unite the galaxy forever. United against him. He'll make himself into the most hated man in history. And when the time is right, we'll throw him DOWN!" ? Anakin

"Anakin, stop!" - Padme

"Don't you see! We'll be heroes! The whole GALAXY will love us! And we will rule TOGETHER!" - Anakin

"Please STOP! Anakin, please stop, I can't stand it!" - Padme

But he was no longer listening to her. He was no longer looking at her.

He was looking past her shoulder.

"You!" - Anakin

"Padme, move away from him." - Obi-Wan

"Obi-Wan!" - Padme

She turned and saw him on the landing ramp.

"No!" - Padme

"You... (growling his words out) you brought him here!" - Anakin

Padme turned back to Anakin. This time, he was looking at her.

And his eyes were full of flame.

"Anakin... ?" - Padme

"Padme, move away!" - Obi-Wan

There was an urgency in Obi-Wan's voice closer to fear than Padme had ever heard from him.

"He's not who you think he is. He WILL harm you." - Obi-Wan

"I would thank you for this, if it were a gift of love!" - Anakin

"No, Anakin. No..." - Padme

"Palpatine was right. Sometimes it is the closest who cannot see. I loved you too much, Padme." - Anakin

He made a fist, and she couldn't breath.

"I loved you too much to see you ... to see what you are!"

Padme clawed at her throat, but there was nothing she could do.

"Let her go, Anakin!" - Obi-Wan

Anakin snarled.

"You will not take her from me." - Anakin

She wished to call out... to tell him that she loves him... but was not able to.

"LET HER GO!" - Obi-Wan

"NEVER!" - Anakin

The ground fell away beneath her, and then a white flash of impact blaster her into night.

//cut to Coruscant

In the Senate Arena, lightning forth from the hands of a Sith and bent away by the gesture of a Jedi, to shock red robes into unconsciousness. Then there were only the two of them.

Their clash transcended the personal. When new lightning blazed, it was not Palpatine burning Yoda with his hate, it was the Lord of All Sith scorching the Master of All Jedi into a smoldering pile of clothing and green flesh.

A thousand years of hidden Sith exaulted in their victory.

"Your time is over. The Sith rule the galaxy... now and forever!" - Sidious

And it was the whole of the Jedi Order that rocketed from it's huddle, making of it's own a body a weapon to blast the Sith to the ground.
 
7th Update:

"At an end, your rule is... and not short enough, it was, I must say." ? Yoda

There appeared a blade the color of life. From the shadow of a black wing, a small weapon, a hold out, an easily concealed backup, a tiny bit of treachery expressing the core of Sith Mastery, slid into a withered hand, and spat a flame colored blade of its own.

When those blades met, it was more than Yoda against Palpatine, more than millennia of Sith against legions of Jedi.

This was the expression of the fundamental conflict of the universe itself.

Light against dark.

Winner take all.

//cut to Mustafar


Obi-Wan knelt beside Padme.

He barely found a pulse.

"Anakin... Anakin, what have you done?!?" - Obi-Wan

"You turned her against me!" - Anakin

Obi-Wan looked at the best friend he had ever had.

"You did that yourself." - Obi-Wan

"I'll give you a chance, Obi-Wan. For old times sake. Walk away." - Anakin

"If only I could." - Obi-Wan

"Go someplace out of the way. Retire. Meditate. That's what you like, isn't it? You don't have to fight for peace anymore. Peace is here! MY Empire IS peace!" - Anakin

"YOUR Empire? It will never have peace. It was founded on treachery and innocent blood." - Obi-Wan

"Don't make me kill you, Obi-Wan." ? Anakin

"If you are not with me, you are against me." - Anakin

"Only Sith deal in absolutes, Anakin. The truth is never black and white." Obi-Wan

He stands, holding up his open hands in a sign of peace.

"Let me take Padme to a med center. She's hurt, Anakin. She needs medical attention." - Obi-Wan

"She stays." ? Anakin
"Anakin!" - Obi-Wan

"You don't get to take her ANYWHERE! You don't get to touch her! She's MINE, do you understand? It's your fault... all of it! You made her betray me!" - Anakin

"Anakin..." - Obi-Wan

Anakin drew his lightsaber.

Obi-Wan drew his own lightsaber.

"Then I will do what I must." - Obi-Wan

"You'll try." - Anakin

Anakin leapt toward Obi-Wan, and Obi-Wan jumped to meet him in the air. As the blades crossed, the volcano aboved echoed with a shot of fire.

//cut to 3PO

3PO looked cautiously through the hatch of Padme's skiff. There's a goofy paragraph about things 3PO would rather be doing... it was pretty funny.

He walked down the landing ramp.

He didn't really know what was going on, other than hearing that Padme was hurt.

He couldn't find Padme.

He heard R2 in the distance. It translated to "Don't worry, you'll be alright."

"Artoo? Artoo, are you out here?" - 3PO

Artoo was pulling Padme across the ground toward the ship (he tangled his maniupulor arm in his clothing, which was what was pulling her).

"Artoo, stop that this instant! You'll damage her!" - 3PO

"What exactly do you suggest?" - R2 (I love how Stover translated R2...)

"Well... alright... we'll do it together." - 3PO

//cut to Coruscant.


(Just a quick summary.)
There came a turning point in the light versus dark.

The battle shifted from the holding office to the podium.

It began to raise, over 100 meters up... it became the focal point of the arena... had anyone been in it to witness this.

The senate pods began flying every which way, crashing into each other in a thunderous roar... almost echoing the cheers for Palpatine that had emanated through the chamber earlier that day.

Yoda's vision finally pieced the darkness that had taken control over the Force.

He saw the truth...

That he was the avatar of light; the Supreme master of the Jedi Order.

The truth...

That he just didn't have it.

Yoda... had never had it.

He had lost before he had started.

He had lost before he was born.

The Sith had grown; had changed; had adapted.

Palpatine was the culmination of the past 1,000 of Sith training, as well as the intensive study the Sith put into Jedi lore itself.

The past 1,000 years of Sith history had been a preparation for this moment.

The Jedi had been training to fight the last war. The wrong war.

The new Sith could not be destroyed with a ligthsaber, or with a touch of the Force.

The more the light side flowed through Yoda, the more the dark side swelled in Palpatine.

The brighter the light, the darker the shadow.

How could one win a war against the dark, when the war had become the weapon of the dark?

Yoda realized this insight held the hopes of the galaxy.

If he were to be destroyed, that hope would die with him.

//cut to Mustafar.

After thousands of hours of lightsaber sparring together, Obi-Wan and Anakin's techniques were almost identical. They knew what the other was going to do before he did it... every time.

Punches and kicks were blocked, all strikes were parried. They knew each other too well.

They then were inside the facility...

Seems like they're using the Force to set off the blasters in the dead people's hands...

Obi-Wan managed to a deflect a few towards Anakin.

Anakin deflected.

And they send the laser beams back and forth at each other until they dissipated into radioactive gas.

"Don't make me destroy you, Obi-Wan." ? Anakin

"You're no match for the power of the dark side." - Anakin

"I've heard that before... but I never thought I'd hear it from you." - Obi-Wan

Anakin Force-pushes Obi-Wan into a wall.

Anakin steps toward him, over dead bodies... and lifts his blade in preparation for the kill.

Obi-Wan had one trick left. One that wouldn't twice.

One that worked on Grievous.

He reached out through the Force, and reversed the electrodriver's on Anakin's mechanical hand.

His fingers sprang open, and his lightsaber flew out.

Obi-Wan reached out with the Force and drew Anakin's lightsaber to him.

"The flaw of power is arrogance." - Obi-Wan

"You hesitate. The flaw of compassion." - Anakin

"It's not compassion, Anakin. It's reverence for life." - Obi-Wan

"It's not compassion, Anakin. It's reverence for life. (new:) Even yours. It's respect for the man you were. (sighs) It's regret for the man you should have been." - Obi-Wan

Anakin roared and flew at him.

Anakin used both the Force and his body to slam Obi-Wan into the wall.

He grabbed both of Obi-Wan's wrists an impossibly strong grip.

"I AM SO SICK OF YOUR LECTURES!" - Anakin

Obi-Wan could literally feel his bones bending, readying themselves for the break.

//cut to Coruscant

Palpatine whipped a pod at Yoda, and Yoda leaped half a second too slow. Palpatine unleashed his lightning while Yoda was still in the air, and "the little green freak took it's full power."

(Obviously, this is putting Palpatine's viewpoing into it, while staying in 3rd person.)

Yoda crashed against the podium.

And fell.

Far, far down...

The base of the arena was 100 meters below.

It was littered with shards of metal from the destroyed pods.

As the little green freak fell, the Shadow became, once again, simply Palpatine.

A tired and old man gasping for air.

He was old, but there was nothing wrong with his eyesight.

He scanned the wreckage, but did not see a body.

He used the Force to flip a switch, which sounded countless sirons throughout the building.

He then began lowering his pod towards the base of the rotunda.

Clone troops were already rushing in.

"It was Yoda! Another assassination attempt. Find him, and kill him. If you have to, blow up the building." - Palpatine

The Force sent a warning to Palpatine. Vader was in danger.

He stopped one of the commanders.

"You. Call the shuttle dock and tell them I'm on my way. Have my ship warmed and ready." - Palpatine

Palpatine ran.

//cut to Yoda

Yoda sprinted across the surface accessway below the arena.

He was running faster than any human could.

And was slicing through conduits and doors as he passed.

And filling the way behind him with high voltage cables.

He began stopping occasionally to slice an escape hole in the wall, so that the forces would have to divide up to search each of his possible exits.

Unfortunately, he knew they could afford to. There were thousands of them.

He pulled out his comlink.

The Force whispered coordinates to him, and he said them into the comm.

"Delay not. Closing is the pursuit. Failed, I have. And kill me they will." ? Yoda

By the time Yoda got to the side of the chamber, he was breathing hard, even with the aid of the Force.

He cut through the floor and dropped into a maintence accessway.

He cut through one of the main power circuits for the lights.

He then cut through the wall and dove out into the open. He used his cloak to slow down his fall. He was too small to trigger the defenses.

However, the speeder flying below would get blasted if it deviated from it's path by even one meter.

He used the Force to push himself outward, and landed in the speeder next to Bail Organa.

They shot away into traffic.

"Master Yoda, are you wounded?" - Bail

"Only my pride... only my pride" ? Yoda

//cut to Mustafar.

nakin forced Obi-Wan's arms down, pointing the lightsabers toward the ground.

Obi-Wan let go.

Of everything.

His hopes, his fears, his obligation to the Jedi... his promise to Qui-Gon and his failure with Anakin.

And the lightsabers.

(And the way this thread was going earlier, his bowels too!)

Anakin was taken by surprise, and instinctively let go of one of Obi-Wan's wrists to reach for his blade.

In that instant, Obi-Wan twisted free, grabbed his lightsaber, and swung it against Anakin's with such force that it pushed them both against the wall which Obi-Wan had been standing and cut through it.

He directed another swing against the wall.

And prepared to direct another, which would cut through so that he could jump through the wall.

He did.

Anakin followed, constantly on the attack.

Obi-Wan gave ground, retreating along a narrow balcony.

High above the lava and fire.

Obi-Wan continued to let Anakin drive him back.

Towards the place where Obi-Wan could sense death. A place, he decided, they should reach together.

[lots of cool action]

Anakin cut through a control panel on the balcony.

The shield holding back the lava vanished.

Fire shot all around them.

Obi-Wan backed up to the end of the walkway; the only thing behind him a power conduit no thicker than his arm.

He stopped unto the conduit without hesitation. His balance was flawless as he deflected attack after attack from Anakin.

Then Anakin hopped aboard the conduit too. Their blows came faster than before.

Smoke blocked out the sun.

The only light came from the lava below.

Unlike Yoda vs Sidious, this had nothing to do with Jedi vs Sith, or good vs evil, or light vs dark.

It was simply Anakin against Obi-Wan.

Obi-Wan back flipped to a coupling nexus, and just as Anakin leapt to follow, Obi-Wan back flipped again.

They went on a chase, back and forth, through various levels of conduits and coupling nexuses, collection panels, etc.

They ended up on a collection panel. Obi-Wan ended up on the edge of one, hiding behind it for protection from the lava, while at the same time blocking Anakin's assault both with the Force and with the lightsaber.
 
8th Update:

Obi-Wan had an epiphany.

The man he was facing was the culmination of everything he had devoted his life to destroying.

Despite this, Obi-Wan still loved him.

That thing about attachments? Yeah, Obi-wan failed at that.

He had always stuck up for Anakin; had always covered for him.

And the attachment he denied even having had blinded him to the dark path his best friend walked.

The lava broke the shore of the factory, and it began to fall into lava, knocking both of them from where they stood.

They hung from stips of cable as the plant's superstructure flowed into the lava.

It sunk slowly as the lower levels melted and burned away.

Anakin kicked off and swung in a large arc; Obi-Wan shoved off and met him halfway; holding onto the cable with one hand and the Force, the other hand holding out his lightsaber.

Anakin whipped the bottom of his cable at Obi-Wan's knees.

Obi-Wan sliced through the cable above Anakin's head.

Anakin fell.

Pockets of gas boiled to the surface of the lava.

It shot up flames ... like arms reaching up to pull him in.

Between momentum and the Force, though, Anakin managed to reach another cable and grab hold. Obi-Wan shifted his weight to bring him in range of Anakin's new cable.

Anakin began swinging cable to cable, and Obi-Wan took chase (picture Tarzan, kinda).

Anakin used the Force to propel him higher upon each cable.

On this planet, altitude was everything.

They ended up on the top deck of the superstructure.

Obi-Wan barely had set foot upon it before Anakin pounced at him, and they stood toe to toe.

The factory was now being carried over a lavafall -- picture a house going over a waterfall.

Obi-Wan decided he didn't want to see what was at the bottom.

He through aside Anakin's blade with both hands, and landed a solid kick into Anakin's midsection.

Before Anakin could recover, Obi-Wan took a running jump/dive off the deck...

He fell down several levels...

And just before hitting the lava, the Force brought a cable to his hand, and he took hold.

He swung to the very peak of the cable's height limit -- and let go.

The swing shot him in an arc toward the river's shore.

Toward it... but not quite to it.

But the Force led him to jump, and it also led him to his safety.

In the form of a repulsorlift platform.

It's programming was having it deliver droids to the factory - it obviously didn't realize the factory was about to be destroyed.

He destroyed the navigation system, and sent it back towards the shore.

He watched as the plant fell over the cliff, and was swallowed by the lava below.

Obi-Wan lowered his head. "Good bye... old friend."

He raised his head again.

Just in time to see Anakin hurtling towards him.

Anakin was on a tiny repulsorlift platform... one that was much quicker than Obi-Wan's.

Anakin brought his platofrorm around to the other side of Obi-Wan's, and swung at Obi-Wan.

Obi-Wan shifted his weight, trying to redirect his platform, but it was just much too slow to do any good against Anakin.

The heat was intense enough to begin to crisp Obi-Wan's hair.

"This is the end for you, Master. I wish it were otherwise." - Anakin

"Yes Anakin, so do I." - Obi-Wan

Obi-Wan ran into a leaping dive, making a spear out of his lightsaber blade.

Anakin leaned aside, out of harm's way. He missed a cut at Obi-Wan's legs as Obi-Wan flew by.

Obi-Wan turned his dive into a roll that nearly send him off the edge of a narrow cliff.

Anakin snarled, for he realized he'd been tricked. Obi-Wan wasn't going to spear him; he was just trying to get on a more level playing field.

Anakin leaped at Obi-Wan's back...

Obi-Wan turned to block.

But instead of his blade meeting Anakin's blade, it met his knee. Then, his other knee.

And while the legs were just beginning to fall towards the lava; while Anakin was still in the air; Obi-Wan's attempt to regain balance sent his blade through Anakin's left arm above the elbow.

He stepped back as Anakin fell.

Anakin droped his lightsaber and clawed at the edge of the cliff.

His grip was too powerful for the lava bank to handle, and it crubmled.

He slid down onto the black sand.

His severed limbs rolled into the lava below him.

In sudden bursts of scarlet flame, they burned to ash.

The same color, Obi-Wan observed... as a Sith lightsaber.

--------------------
Note -

Obi-Wan was going for the block, not the kill yet. Due to a mistake on Anakin's part, Obi-Wan took out more than he bargained for.

Call it an accident, if you want.

But I call it a mistake.
----------------------

Anakin clawed at the sand, but it only made things worse.

It was hot enough that it burned off his glove just by the touch.

His robes began to smolder.

Obi-Wan picked up Anakin's lightsaber.

He lifted his own as well.

He weighed them together. In a way, Anakin had designed his after Obi-Wan's.

They were similar.

But put to much different uses.

"Obi-Wan!" - Anakin

Anakins hair had blackened from the intense heat and flame around him.

"YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE! It was said you would destroy the Sith, not join them! It was you who would bring balance to the Force. not leave it in darkness! You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you; but I could not save you." - Obi-Wan

Obi-Wan saw a flash of darkness in the sky, and felt the darkness close in around them both.

It was the Emperor's shuttle.

He knew Yoda had failed.

And below his feet, Vader burst into flame.

"I HATE YOU!" - Anakin

Obi-Wan looked down. It would be a mercy to kill him. Obi-Wan was not feeling merciful.

He was feeling calm, and clear. He knew that to climb down to the black beach would cost him more time than he had.

Obi-Wan only had one choice.

It was one he had made many years before. He could not murder a helpless man.

He would leave it to the will of the Force.

He turned and walked away.

Obi-Wan began to run.

If he was fast enough, there was still one thing he could do to help Anakin.

He could still do honor to Anakin's memory.

And to the Jedi Order they both had served.

Obi-Wan eventually made it back to Padme's skiff, where 3PO awaited, waving frantically.

"Master Kenobi! Please, hurry!" - 3PO

"Where's Padme?" - Obi-Wan

"Already inside, sir, but she is badly hurt." - 3PO

Obi-Wan ran to the cockpit and fired the engine.

Just as Palpatine's ship approached the landing deck, Padme's soared off towards the stars.

The ship entered the medical facility in the astroid belt of Polis Massa. The Tantive IV came out of hyperspace only moments behind.

Back on Mustafar, Sidious has already fetched the remains of Anakin. He called to the clones standing by to bring the medical supplies immediately.

Sidious sat Anakin on the cooler ground above, and placed his hand upon Anakin's forehead.

"Live, Lord Vader. Live, my apprentice. Live."

----------------------

Beyond the transparent crystal of the observation dome on the airless crags of Polis Massa, the galaxy wheeled in a spray of hard, cold pinpricks through the veil of infinite night.

Beneath that dome sat Yoda. He did not look at the stars.

He sat a very long time.

Even after nearly nine hundred years, the road to self-knowledge was rugged enough to leave him bruised and bleeding.

He spoke softly, but not to himself.

Though no one was with him, he was not alone.

"My failure, this was. Failed the Jedi, I did."

He spoke to the Force.

And the Force answered him. Do not blame yourself, my old friend.

As it sometimes had these past thirteen years, when the Force spoke to him, it spoke in the voice of Qui-Gon Jinn,

"Too old I was," Yoda said. "Too rigid. Too arrogant to see that the old way is not the only way. These Jedi, 1 trained to become the Jedi who had trained me, long centuries ago?but those ancient Jedi, of a different time they were. Changed, has the galaxy. Changed, the Order did not?because let it change, I did not."

More easily said than done, my friend.

"An infinite mystery is the Force." Yoda lifted his head and turned his gaze out into the wheel of stars. "Much to learn, there still is."

And you will have time to learn it.

"Infinite knowledge . . ." Yoda shook his head. "Infinite time, does that require."

With my help, you can learn to join with the Force, yet retain consciousness. You can join your light to it forever. Perhaps, in time, even your physical self.

Yoda did not move. "Eternal life . . ."

The ultimate goal of the Sith, yet they can never achieve it; it comes only by the release of self, not the exaltation of self. It comes through compassion, not greed. Love is the answer to the darkness.

"Become one with the Force, yet influence still to have . . ." Yoda mused. "A power greater than all, it is."

It cannot be granted; it can only be taught. It is yours to learn, if you wish it.

Slowly, Yoda nodded. "A very great Jedi Master you have become, Qui-Gon Jinn. A very great Jedi Master you always were, but too blind I was to see it."

He rose, and folded his hands before him, and inclined his head in the Jedi bow of respect.

The bow of the student, in the presence of the Master.

"Your apprentice, I gratefully become."

He was well into his first lesson when the hatch cycled open behind him. He turned.

In the corridor beyond stood Bail Organa. He looked stricken,

"Obi-Wan is asking for you at the surgical theater," he said. "It's Padme. She's dying."

Obi-Wan sat beside her, holding one cold, still hand in both of his. "Don't give up, Padme."

"Is it . . ." Her eyes rolled blindly. "It's a girl. Anakin thinks it's a girl."

"We don't know yet. In a minute . .. you have to stay with us."

Below the opaque tent that shrouded her from chest down, a pair of surgical droids assisted with her labor. A general medical droid fussed and tinkered among the clutter of scanners and equipment.

"If it's ... a girl?oh, oh, oh no . . ."

Obi-Wan cast an appeal toward the medical droid. "Can't you do something?"

"All organic damage has been repaired." The droid checked another readout. "This systemic failure cannot be explained."

Not physically, Obi-Wan thought. He squeezed her hand as though he could keep life within her body by simple pressure. "Padme, you have to hold on."

"If it's a girl . . . ," she gasped, "name her Leia . . ."

One of the surgical droids circled out from behind the tent, cradling in its padded arms a tiny infant, already swabbed clean and breathing, but without even the hint of tears.

The droid announced softly, "It's a boy."

Padme reached for him with her trembling free hand, but she had no strength to take him; she could only touch her fingers to the baby's forehead.

She smiled weakly. "Luke ..."

The other droid now rounded the tent as well, with another clean, quietly solemn infant. ". . . and a girl."

But she had already fallen back against her pillow.
 
9th Update:

"Padme, you have twins," Obi-Wan said desperately. ""They need you?please hang on ..."

"Anakin ..."

"Anakin . . . isn't here, Padme," he said, though he didn't think she could hear.

"Anakin, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry . . . Anakin, please, I love you . .."

In the Force, Obi-Wan felt Yoda's approach, and he looked up to see the ancient Master beside Bail Organa, both staring the same grave question down through the surgical theater's observation panel.

The only answer Obi-Wan had was a helpless shake of his head.

Padme reached across with her free hand, with the hand she had laid upon the brow of her firstborn son, and pressed something into Obi-Wan's palm.

For a moment, her eyes cleared, and she knew him.

"Obi-Wan . . . there ... is still good in him. I know there is... still..."

Her voice faded to an empty sigh, and she sagged back against the pillow. Half a dozen different scanners buzzed with conflicting alarm tones, and the medical droids shooed him from the room.

He stood in the hall outside, looking down at what she had pressed into his hand. It was a pendant of some kind, an amulet, unfamiliar sigils carved into some sort of organic material, strung on a loop of leather. In the Force, he could feel traces of the touch of her skin.

When Yoda and Bail came for him, he was still standing there, staring at it.
"She put this in my hand?" For what seemed the dozenth time this day, he found himself blinking back tears. "?and I don't even know what it is."

"Precious to her, it must have been," Yoda said slowly. "Buried with her, perhaps it should be."

Obi-Wan looked down at the simple, child-like symbols carved into it, and felt from it in the Force soaring echoes of transcendent love, and the bleak, black despair of unendurable heartbreak.

"Yes," he said. "Yes. Perhaps that would be best."

Around a conference table on Tantive TV, Bail Organa, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Yoda met to decide the fate of the galaxy.

"To Naboo, send her body . . ." Yoda stretched his head high, as though tasting a current in the Force. "Pregnant, she must still appear. Hidden, safe, the children must be kept. Foundation of the new Jedi Order, they will be."

"We should split them up," Obi-Wan said. "Even if the Sith find one, the other may survive. I can take the boy. Master Yoda, and you take the girl. We can hide them away, keep them safe? train them as Anakin should have been trained?"

"No." The ancient Master lowered his head again, closing his eyes, resting his chin on his hands that were folded over the head of his stick.

Obi-Wan looked uncertain. "But how are they to learn the self-discipline a Jedi needs? How are they to master skills of the Force?"

"Jedi training, the sole source of self-discipline is not. When right is the time for skills to be taught, to us the living Force will bring them. Until then, wait we will, and watch, and learn."

"I can . . ." Bail Organa stopped, flushing slightly. "I'm sorry to interrupt, Masters; I know little about the Force, but I do know something of love. The Queen and I?well, we've always talked of adopting a girl. If you have no objection, I would like to take Leia to Alderaan, and raise her as our daughter. She would be loved with us."

Yoda and Obi-Wan exchanged a look. Yoda tilted his head. "No happier fate could any child ask for. With our blessing, and that of the Force, let Leia be your child."

Bail stood, a little jerkily, as though he simply could no longer keep his seat. His flush had turned from embarrassment to pure uncomplicated joy. "Thank you, Masters?I don't know what else to say. Thank you, that's all. What of the boy?"

"Ciiegg Lars still lives on Tatooine, I think?and Anakin's stepbrother . . . Owen, that's it, and his wife, Beru, still work the moisture farm outside Mos Eisley . . "

"As close to kinfolk as the boy can come," Yoda said approvingly. "But Tatooine, not like Alderaan it is-?deep in the Outer Rim, a wild and dangerous planet."

"Anakin survived it," Obi-Wan said. "Luke can, too. And I can?well, 1 could take him there, and watch over him. Protect him from the worst of the planet's dangers, until he can learn to protect himself."

"Like a father you wish to be, young Obi-Wan?"

"More an ... eccentric old uncle, I think. It is a part I can play very well. To keep watch over Anakin's son?" Obi-Wan sighed, finally allowing his face to register a suggestion of his old gentle smile. "I can't imagine a better way to spend the rest of my life."

"Settled it is, then. To Tatooine, you will take him."

Bail moved toward the door. "If you'll excuse me, Masters, I have to call the Queen . . ." He stopped in the doorway, looking back. "Master Yoda, do you think Padme's twins will be able to defeat Palpatine?"

"Strong the Force runs, in the Skywalker line. Only hope, we can. Until the time is right, disappear we will."

Bail nodded. "And I must do die same?metaphorically, at least. You may hear . . . disturbing things . . . about what I do in the Senate. I must appear to support the new Empire, and my comrades with me. It was . . . Padme's wish, and she was a shrewder political mind than I'll ever be. Please trust that what we do is only a cover for our true task. We will never betray the legacy of the Jedi. I will never surrender the Republic to the Sith."

"Trust in this, we always will. Go now; for happy news, your Queen is waiting."

Bail Organa bowed, and vanished into the corridor.

When Obi-Wan moved to follow, Yoda's gimer stick barred his way. "A moment, Master Kenobi. In your solitude on Tatooine, training I have for you. I and my new Master."

Obi-Wan blinked. "Your new Master?" v;
"Yes." Yoda smiled up at him. "And your old one . . ."

C-3PO shuffled along the starship's hallway beside R2-D2, following Senator Organa who had, by all accounts, inherited them both. "I'm certain I can't say why she malfunctioned," he was telling the little astromech. "Organics are so terribly complicated, you know."

Ahead, the Senator was met by a man whose uniform, C-3PO's conformation-recognition algorithm informed him, indicated he was a captain in the Royal Alderaan Civil Fleet.

"I'm placing these droids in your care," the Senator said. "Have them cleaned, polished, and refitted with the best of everything; they will belong to my new daughter."

"How lovely!" C-3PO exclaimed. "His daughter is the child of Master Anakin and Senator Amidala," he explained to R2-D2. "I can hardly wait to tell her all about her parents! I'm sure she will be very proud?"

"Oh, and the protocol droid?" Senator Organa said thoughtfully. "Have its mind wiped."

The captain saluted.

"Oh," said C-3PO. "Oh, dear."

------------

In the newly renamed Emperor Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center on Coruscant, a hypersophisticated prototype Ubrikkian DD-13 surgical droid moved away from the project that it and an enhanced FX-6 medical droid had spent many days rebuilding.

It beckoned to a dark-robed shadow that stood at the edge of the pool of high-intensity light. "My lord, the construction is finished. He lives."

"Good. Good."

The shadow flowed into the pool of light as though the overhead illuminators had malfunctioned.

Droids stepped back as it came to the rim of the surgical table.

On the table was strapped the very first patient of the EmPalSuRecon Center.

To some eyes, it might have been a pieced-togcther hybrid of droid and human, encased in a life-support shell of gleaming black, managed by a thoracic processor that winked pale color against the shadow's cloak. To some eyes, its jointed limbs might have looked ungainly, clumsy, even monstrous; the featureless curves of black that served it for eyes might have appeared inhuman, and the underthrust grillwork of its vocabulator might have suggested the jaws of a saurian predator built of polished blast armor, but to the shadow?

It was glorious.

A magnificent jewel box, created both to protect and to exhibit the greatest treasure of the Sith.

Terrifying.

Mesmerizing.

Perfect.

The table slowly rotated to vertical, and the shadow leaned close.

"Lord Vader? Lord Vader, can you hear me?"

-----------------

This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker, forever:

The first dawn of light in your universe brings pain.

The light burns you. It will always burn you. Part of you will always lie upon black glass sand beside a lake of fire while flames chew upon your flesh.

You can hear yourself breathing. It comes hard, and harsh, and it scrapes nerves already raw, but you cannot stop it. You can never stop it. You cannot even slow it down.

You don't even have lungs anymore.

Mechanisms hardwired into your chest breathe for you. They will pump oxygen into your bloodstream forever.

Lord Vader? Lord Vader, can you hear me?

And you can't, not in the way you once did. Sensors in the shell that prisons your head trickle meaning directly into your brain.

You open your scorched-pale eyes; optical sensors integrate light and shadow into a hideous simulacrum of the world around you.

Or perhaps the simulacrum is perfect, and it is the world that is hideous.

Padme? Are you here? Are you all right? you try to say, but another voice speaks for you, out from the vocabulator that serves you for burned-away lips and tongue and throat.

"Padme"? Are you here? Are you all right?"

I'm very sorry, Lord Vader. I'm afraid she died. It seems in your anger, you killed her.

This burns hotter than the lava had.

"No . . . no, it is not possible!

You loved her. You will always love her. You could never will her death.
Never.

But you remember . . .

You remember all of it.

You remember the dragon that you brought Vader forth from your heart to slay. You remember the cold venom in Vader's blood. You remember the furnace of Vader's fury, and the black hatred of seizing her throat to silence her lying mouth?

And there is one blazing moment in which you finally understand that there was no dragon. That there was no Vader. That there was only you. Only Anakin Skywalker.

That it was all you. Is you.

Only you.

You did it.

You killed her.

You killed her because, finally, when you could have saved her, when you could have gone away with her, when you could have been thinking about her, you were thinking about yourself. . .

It is in this blazing moment that you finally understand the trap of the dark side, the final cruelty of the Sith?

Because now your self is all you will ever have.

And you rage and scream and reach through the Force to crush the shadow who has destroyed you, but you are so far less now than what you were, you are more than half machine, you are like a painter gone blind, a composer gone deaf, you can remember where the power was but the power you can touch is only a memory, and so with all your world-destroying fury it is only droids around you that implode, and equipment, and the table on which you were strapped shatters, and in the end, you cannot touch the shadow.

In the end, you do not even want to.

In the end, the shadow is all you have left.

Because the shadow understands you, the shadow forgives you, the shadow gathers you unto itself?

And within your furnace heart, you burn in your own flame.

This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywatker.

Forever. . .

--------------------------------------------------

The long night has begun.

Huge solemn crowds line Palace Plaza in Theed, the capital of Naboo, as six beautiful white gualaars draw a flower-draped open casket bearing the remains of a beloved Senator through the Triumphal Arch, her fingers finally and forever clasping a snippet of japor, one that had been carved long ago by the hand of a nine-year-old boy from an obscure desert planet in the far Outer Rim . . .

On the jungle planet of Dagobah, a Jedi Master inspects the unfamiliar swamp of his exile . . .

From the bridge of a Star Destroyer, two Sith Lords stand with a sector governor named Tarkin, and survey the growing skeleton of a spherical battle station the size of a moon . . .

But even in the deepest night, there are some who dream of dawn.

On Alderaan, the Prince Consort delivers a baby girl into the loving arms of his Queen.

And on Tatooine, a Jedi Master brings an infant boy to the homestead of Owen and Bern Lars?

Then he rides his eopie off into the Jundland Wastes, toward the setting suns.
 
Ich habe das Audiobook zwar schon auf em Rechner aber ich werde es mir eh erst anhören nach dem ich den Film gesehen habe. Ist wirklich schwer da stark zu bleiben. Aber die Macht ist mit mir :cool:
 
Schon jetzt auf dem besten Weg meine Lieblingsszene zu werden: Palpatine will Yoda "Happy New Empire"-Day wünschen! :) Geil... hoffentlich wird das im Film einigermaßen gut übersetzt
 
Ich frage mich, wie die Entscheidung beim Duell zwischen Obi-Wan und Anakin umgesetzt wird. Die veranstalten die dollsten Sachen und dann trifft Obi-Wan beim Blocken nicht Anis Schwert sondern sein Knie bzw. seine Knie, sodass Ani fällt und in die Lava rutscht. Außerdem trennt Obi-Wan auch noch aus Versehen - beim Versuch das Gleichgewicht zu finden - Anakins linken Arm ab. Da frage ich mich echt, wie das aussehen wird. Dass Obi-Wan Ani nicht völlig filletiert, finde ich ja gut. Die ersten Spoiler waren ja doch sehr splattermäßig aber wie wird das aussehen?
