What If ANAKIN TOLD PADME About Palpatine INSTEAD Of Mace Windu | Star Wars Fan Fiction

[@blocc_nova746]

Anakin: Goes to one building instead of another. The timeline:

[@mikecotto1167]

What I could never understand as far as the main plot goes is that how could Anakin be so blind and stupid to not realize that upon learning Palpatine was the Sith Lord they were looking for, it also meant that he was behind the assassination attempts on Padme over the years. I know it’s plot armor but damn, kids half his age would’ve figured that out.

[@billymiles6870]

And the dreams he was having as well.

[@russellbrown9013]

He already knew all of that and was planning on killing Palpatine as soon as he learned the secret to save Padma Life from him.

[@mikecotto1167]

@@russellbrown9013 apparently he didn’t realize that Palpatine was planting those dreams in his head otherwise he would’ve let Windu kill him.

[@russellbrown9013]

@@mikecotto1167 I wasn't commenting on his dreams, I was commenting on how you thought didn't know Palpatine was manipulating him when he revealed himself as the sith lord. As for his dreams, Anakin can see visions of the future, that how he knew his mother was in danger and why he believed that Padme would die.

[@Supersonicblue1027]

Because George was unfortunately reminded that he needs to keep his original trilogy canon, so the plot took over. Still love episode 3, though.

[@dawgsrule20]

3 GRAND MASTERS? It’s over: the wisdom, knowledge, and teachings of Yoda, defense, negotiating, and sass from Obi, last but not least the ways to form an attachment while keeping yourself in the light, ferocious/ determined, and the techniques from Anakin. The Jedi will strive for a long time

[@tonystank3091]

I was always under the impression that Anakin was exempt from Order 66, since Palpatine always intended for Anakin to join him. I recall the time when Tup's chip was acting up, and he saw Anakin, but did nothing, but then saw the other Jedi Master and lunged at her.

[@Maddieg4367]

I hadn't thought of that before, but you're not wrong

[@vencislavdimitrov9304]

This is the most realistic "what if" scenario, it's logical that Anakin will console with Padme since Obi-Wan and Yoda are away and he didn't have the best relationship with Mace Windu.

[@socialaccount0000]

What if Anakin spoke to Obi-Wan instead of Windu? Perhaps he kills Grevious early enough to speak with Anakin. We all know Obi-Wan's allegiance is to The Republic (To democracy!), but would his words be enough to keep Anakin on the path of the light, or would Obi-Wan be too late to stop what was to come?

[@dianesinger9729]

[@thestarwarsgalaxy]

Good to hear! Thank you for watching

[@23traves]

@@thestarwarsgalaxy Hey I had an idea for a What-If! What-If Anakin Skywalker became a Jedi Sentinel! Now hear me out, in Legends Cotinunity, the Jedi Sentinels were Jedi who supplemented their abilities in combat and the Force with external capabilities, and allowed them to become better acquainted with the people, better help them. Not only that, Anakin has excellent skills with machines, and I don't think it would be too far of a stretch for him to become a Jedi Sentinel instead of a Guardian, which is what he canonically is. The specific specializations of a Sentinel I could see Anakin choosing would between an Artisan (which specialize in the use of tools and machines), or a Jedi Shadow (Who specialize in hunting Dark Siders, eraticating the Dark Side, and even have the authorization to use certain Dark Side Powers, albeit following special rules and judiciously choosing the light while wielding the Darkness)

[@VestedUTuber]

Here's an idea. What if Obi-Wan joined Dooku during Attack of the Clones BUT did so while staying true to the Jedi code and teachings? I've seen someone cover this before, but as a Peggy Sue (character travels back in time to an earlier point in their life) fic that's since been semi-abandoned.

[@galagize9233]

That's interesting. The fact that obi-wan was arrogant enough to think dooku would just lie

[@VestedUTuber]

@@galagize9233 I wouldn't necessarily say it's arrogant in this case, just unfortunate. The Jedi already had a hardline stance of "darksiders are always lying bastards" and on top of that Dooku was a traitor to the republic. At the time, the only reason Obi-Wan had to even consider that what Dooku said was true was second-hand knowledge of Dooku's character from Qui-Gon. This actually makes that scene an interesting point to diverge from canon, as it really could go either way. Obi-Wan's training and allegiance to the republic is basically telling him to ignore the traitor but his trust in Qui-Gon tells him to listen. One slightly different word from Dooku or even just a slight change to previous events to make Obi-Wan a bit more questioning of the Jedi Council could easily have resulted in Obi-Wan leaving the Jedi order and turning separatist - but not turning dark.

[@billwilson1079]

I loved this what if video. It was good to see that Aniken did not fall for the dark side and remained loyal to the jedi knights. Not falling for palpatine's lie about saving padame.

[@themasteroflaughter2458]

The question this gives me is what happens to Ahsoka Tano. Does Ahsoka Tano still survive and does she join up with Anakin Skywalker, Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padme Amidala, Luke Skywalker and Leia Skywalker, and the rest of the new Jedi Order on Achto?

[@socialaccount0000]

Considering Order 66 happens slightly earlier, I'd still say she survives as she'd still be on the venator by then

[@Clomer9]

One of the main reasons Ahsoka was able to survive Order 66 was that she sensed Anakin's fall to the dark side. This put her on alert, so when the clones turned on her, she was ready to defend herself. No other Jedi had that advantage. In this story, she would have been caught off-guard like so many others, and I'm not convinced she would have survived.

[@daniels7907]

To this day I still don't get how Anakin fell for the "dying in childbirth" thing. Padme was a wealthy political elite living on the capital world of the Republic. Medical technology in the galaxy is so advanced that they could scoop out Grievous's guts and brains and stick them in a cyborg body! If Anakin had seriously compared notes with Padme, he might have realized that her death would not be due to natural causes. *Something* was going to happen to her that would cause her death. Then, based on what he and Padme knew from previous events, it would become clear that Palpatine had ordered the previous assassination attempts against Padme. Palapatine wasn't promising to help him save Padme with esoteric Force powers. He was basically promising (but lying) that he would not have Padme killed if Anakin cooperated. Padme, having none of this, would alert her fellow Senators of the Delegation of 2000 that Palpatine was a Sith Lord running a massive false flag operation in order to convince the Senate to give him dictatorial powers. The resulting uproar would force Palpatine to try to overthrow the Senate quickly lest they vote to remove him. But this would prove that the Jedi were telling the truth and the Senators, along with the systems that they represented, could move to use non-clone personnel to seize command of Republic fleet assets, as the commanders of these of these ships were not clones. Instead a Republic unified in backing him, Palpatine would find himself in a chaotic situation. The Separatist leadership was in disarray with the loss of Dooku and Grievous. Palaptine, now viewed with suspicion, would have a hard time sending communications from Coruscant unmonitored. Backed into a corner, he could no longer hide his powers, thus proving that he was a Sith Lord.

[@kylerowley8248]

I had never really thought of it like that before. I doubt they could have removed all deaths by child birth if done naturally, but if he was so scared he could have insisted on a c section that I would have no doubt they had the technology to do without any risk whatsoever apart from human error or machine malfunction.

[@daniels7907]

@@kylerowley8248 - Like I said, given what they did to Grievous, getting a couple of babies out Padme's uterus should have been extremely simple on a planet like Coruscant. I'm sure that women die in childbirth on Tatooine all the time. So Anakin would be familiar with that concept. But if he weren't so headstrong he would have understood why Padme didn't believe his nightmare. Rich political elites on Coruscant don't die from complications of childbirth. That Obi-Wan was in his vision, to me, implied that Padme had suffered some injury, possibly due to combat, and so the *real* concern was focusing on her safety overall, not just during the delivery.

[@kylerowley8248]

@@daniels7907 Well, thank you. I'm glad to have seen your comment and now think of things differently, however, my opinion of Anakin does not change. Almost no man could resist Sidious if he had devoted so much attention to manipulating him over the course of his entire life. Anakin was set an all but impossible task, and he failed, but tried very hard not to. Anakin was a very great man, just not among the greatest few who could have succeeded.

[@daniels7907]

@@kylerowley8248 - It's hard for me to respect Anakin when he became slavishly obedient to Palpatine even though Palaptine admitted that he *didn't* possess the secret of saving people from death. Especially as a Dark Jedi, Anakin's reaction to Palpatine's admission that he had been lying should have been to finish what Mace Windu started and leaving Palpatine's headless corpse on the office carpet. Instead he just became a slave, again. The sad truth is that he was weak. He never escaped his slave mentality. Even as Darth Vader he was a follower, only leading those he could bully. But still, ultimately, a slave.

[@kylerowley8248]

@@daniels7907 I can get that, but by the time he faced obi wan on mustifar, he believed the jedi to be evil. Its a matter of ideology, Anakin watched as the flaws of the republic and democracy were twisted and manipulated by the powerful. Yes it was sparked and spearheaded by the sith, but it was an old republic that was failing anyway and it could have eventualy happened without sith aid. The clone wars made the jedi into hypocritical warriors and politicians but their morals still wouldn't let them go far enough to finish the war swiftly. The jedi order was just as weak as the republic in their current state. Palpatine offered imperial authority. Sure, a good chunk of the population would get fucked over, but in time he could overthrow the emperor and rule with padme trying to make the world a bettter place for everyone gradualy using his new ultimate power. It was only after padme died that anakin "died" as well and truly became darth vader with no thoughts for anyone but himself. You are entirely right about him being born a slave greatly weakening his resolve, but that was the point. Once, when I was watching the movies I thought that maybe sidious was sending him the dreams so I looked into it and in the comics (probrably not canon anymore) sidious did send the dreams and even impregnated his mother through the force. Palpatine wanted anakin to be born a slave for that reason. Thats why I think he never stood a chance. Anakin was being manipulated before he was even born.

An interesting what if, but I feel Palpatine would still have some kind of ace up his sleeve if he was exposed. Considering how he had unlimited resources at his disposal, he could easily have had a secret army blend in with the various senators and guards to spring into action to seize the senate by force, along with already trained inquisitors. The entire senate building would go into lockdown with everyone inside killed to keep his identity a secret so he could pin it on the Jedi. Hell, for all we know he could have the building set to detonate at a single command when it was built.

Even if he's already begun to heal from the loss he'd jump at the chance to have that power in order to get her back. And potentially his mother as well. So even if she died earlier from something completely unrelated to Palpatine or the war Anakin would still take the bait. The only thing that could've stopped him was being made master. If he could access the archives completely he'd know that it wasn't possible. Since the Jedi had documented most of the sith abilities as well as their own for well over a thousand years.
