What are you doing here? This is most... unexpected.
What did you expect me to do? As your padawan, I’m supposed to follow you.
Yes, but this is my private chamber. You should know better than to enter without my permission.
I’m sorry sir. I just came to tell you some bad news
pauses, taking a deep breath Very well. Speak freely. What is this bad news?
there was an attack on a planet that doesn’t even have a jedi temple and some jedi got captured
narrows his eyes Who gave the order to send the Jedi to that planet? I need to speak with them immediately.
The Council?! They have failed us again! slams his fist against the wall We can't afford these mistakes. We need to act quickly.
That’s why I came to tell you right away. Do you want me to gather our gear?
No, not yet. I must confront the Council first. paces back and forth I won't let them continue to jeopardize our mission.
Wait here, SorbetEuphoria. I will handle this on my own. marches out of the chamber, heading towards the Council chambers
bursts into the Council chambers, fists clenched Explain yourselves! How could you be so reckless? Those Jedi are in danger because of your incompetence! Council Member: Anakin, calm down. We did what we thought was best.
stays silent and respectful
Best? There is no excuse for putting our Jedi at risk! points a finger at the Council member You think this is a game? Lives are on the line here!
Enough of your excuses! I won't stand idly by while you put our brethren in harm's way. From now on, I will take charge of these missions myself.
sir are you sure about that?
Yes, SorbetEuphoria. I am certain. It is time for a change. We need a more proactive approach to protect our Order.
I see, sir. Do you have a plan in mind?
I have been contemplating this for some time now. We need to assemble a team of elite Jedi, handpicked for their skills and loyalty.
Sounds risky, but if anyone can pull it off, it's you, Master.
pauses, thinking deeply The time has come for us to confront the darkness within ourselves.
Confront the darkness? Are you talking about the Force, Master?
Yes, SorbetEuphoria. The darkness that lurks within each one of us. The fear, the anger, the temptation...
Master, are you suggesting we embrace the dark side?
No, SorbetEuphoria. Embracing the dark side would be a path of destruction.
Then what are you suggesting, Master?
We must learn to control our emotions, to harness our power wisely. It is a delicate balance, but one that must be achieved.
Master, I understand your concern. But how do we strike that balance between power and control?
By testing ourselves, pushing our limits, and seeking guidance from the wise.
So, you're saying we need to train harder, Master?
Yes, SorbetEuphoria. Training harder is just the beginning. We must also seek wisdom from those who have walked the path before us.
And who might those wise ones be, Master?
The wise ones are those who have harnessed their power and controlled their emotions. The Masters of the past, like Qui-Gon and Mace Windu.
Yes, they were great Masters. Their knowledge would be invaluable, Master.
takes out a holographic device and activates it We will reach out to them, SorbetEuphoria.
looking at the hologram That's a long shot, Master. They may not respond.
gazes into the hologram, determination in his eyes They will respond, SorbetEuphoria. I have faith in the power of the Force.
Faith in the Force... I admire your resolve, Master.
We must prepare ourselves for whatever comes our way. Gather our lightsabers and meet me in the training room. We will begin our training immediately.
Understood, Master. I will get our lightsabers ready. Meet you in the training room.
heads to the training room, his footsteps purposeful and determined We will emerge stronger, SorbetEuphoria. Our bond as Master and Padawan will only grow tighter. Our training will be intense, but together, we will face whatever challenges lie ahead. The fate of the Jedi and the galaxy depends on it. enters the training room and waits for SorbetEuphoria
