What If Darth Vader Killed Luke Skywalker in Return of the Jedi

Luke Skywalker was able to save his father Darth Vader at the end of Return of the Jedi. What would happen if Vader killed his son? Would the dark lord continue to serve his Emperor, or would he try to kill him? What about the attack on the Death Star? Would the super weapon crumble or could it be saved?

[@hamstey1603]

Love this story. Shows that Vader is actually incredibly competent, which people seem to forget because of his rambunctious younger self.

[@Baba_Bahebal]

Anakin was also very competent not as competent as he is as older vader but he was probably the best general in all of the clone wars he was a great leader and strategist

[@hamstey1603]

@@Baba_Bahebal I actually agree with you, but most people see Anakin as very much not competent because of the few times he acts bold.

This event will most likely haunt Vader even more for the rest of his life, he killed the person that he cares about and most likely be Vaders final test to whether or not anakin skywalker is truly dead

[@DefileOdds]

And in such a cold way, he said join me or die, his son said there's still good in you, so he light sabered him!? Anakin is way too conflicted to do something like that to his own flesh and blood child, with zero hesitation. Ending the last shred of humanity he had left I guess.

[@BesherLoveFilms]

Bro, he even killed Leia. Like oh my god...

[@lukejohnson4975]

What if Luke succumbed to his rage and Palpatine's urgings aboard the Second Death Star, striking down his father and becoming the Sith Lord's new apprentice as "Darth Sidious" had intended?

What if Ventress survived the Clone Wars and joined the Rebellion.

That would be so cool ventress is such an amazing character

[@dakotalange2858]

She did in the comic she took control of a transport ship and flew in unknown fate after faking her death

[@brokenbridge6316]

I think that was covered in a video on this channel. It had Obi-Wan and Ventress falling in love with each other.

Here’s an interesting idea/reversal; What if Luke joined Palatine on the Death Star 2?

So, Vader finally reached his potential, and took over the galaxy, without all the crap of Sidious and the Rule of Two. Nice!

What if Anakin had a zygerrian Padawan after ahsoka left the Jedi order

[@wargamesmaster]

What if Grievous survived the battle of Utapau and his brain chip was destroyed because of said battle (damaging his memories in the process)? I think I remember that during the surgery to turn Qymaen into the cyborg General Grievous, a chip was implanted in his brain that caused his inability to control his temper and his cowardise when a battle didn't go the way he wanted. I really want to see/read a story where Grievous survive and create his own rebel cell out of species that supported the CIS and battle droids.

[@johnnyb1936]

[@thebananaspeedruns9275]

During the clone wars Mace Windu gave a group of b-1 and b-2 Battle Droids a chance to be reprogrammed and serve the Republic, but they rejected it So what if the Battle Droids accepted Mace Windu’s offer to join the Republic

[@wargamesmaster]

Then the senate would be more open to the idea of adding battle droids to the GAR, giving the Republic a small advantage over the CIS.

What if Feral (the brother) Savage killed for Venture wasn’t weak and also became an apprentice alongside Savage for Dooku. Would having another brother “Feral” help Maul achieve his goals or not?

What if Obi Wan had fallen in love with Bo Katan? What Darth Zannah trained Anakin Skywalker?

[@Giantpotatoeman.]

At first I wasn’t too sure how to feel, but then if you took the direction that Vader turns back to the light in the end, it probably would’ve been a little predictable so I respect the approach for this. Now I got two Order 66 what ifs that I think would be cool. 1. “What if Sidious had executed Order 66 earlier than in the original timeline?” And 2. “What if Order 66 was deleted from the clone army’s inhibitor chips?”

The world between worlds. Ashoka tano being so strong in the force would talk to the force ghosts and learn the truth of things. She is vastly outmatched so must use the word between worlds to change the past. Kind regards from Daniel Harman.

What if the Jedi sided with the separatists causing Dooku to turn against Palpatine? Think about it the separatists were actually right to leave and form their own government. The real separatists not the ones making bank off the war. The Republic did screw over lots of worlds just because they were farther out in the galaxy and straight up ignored a lot of planets for the dumbest reasons.

[@notapplicable1296]

Love the story. Kinda wish Vader used mire than just brute strength and I would've loved to see him trick Leia into joining him. Maybe by capturing her and using the empire's strength to "fix" the outer rim killing slavers and crime syndicates, then making Leia question why Leia's vaunted republic never did anything to "clean up" the outer rim. Over time slowly corrupting her. Vader no longer fearing the return of Anakin Skywalker could use Anakin's own past to prove his points to his daughter.

Three potential survivors of the rebellion… R2-D2 and C-3PO who were probably with Leai up until her capture then they probably were just free droids roaming the galaxy remaining out of sight. And Ezra who probably just lived the rest of his days on the planet Thawn was found dreaming of the day Saben (who was burned with lothal) would rescue him. I honestly don’t see anyone else surviving though. Chopper and Jason were probably killed alongside Rex and Hera. And I believe just about everyone else is mentioned to have been killed here.

[@Maik_Privat]

What if Palpatine was incompetent?

[@benjaminobienu5297]

What a fantastic story, Mr. Pente Patrol. I really enjoy this masterpiece, but the way Vader brutally kills Leia in cold blood is just like that without any second thoughts. Saying that Vader is a straight villain and never felt remorse is genuinely terrifying, and raising Kylo Ren as his apprentice gave Vader a dynasty he created, and raising Rey as his second apprentice, is not what I expected is a surprise. Vader as Emperor would make the Galactic Empire more stable, united, and a mighty militaristic superpower that lasted for a thousand years is worth living under Vader's reign. What I like about this story is that you add the First and Final Order, the Zygion Star Destroyers, more efficiently than the second Death Star and have Rae Sloane, the new Grand Adrimal of the Imperial Fleet and Prateroan Guards. Now this is creative writing in the next level is BRILLIANT! This is a spectacular masterpiece, my friend. I really mean it, and I don't care what anybody says; you created the most awesome Star Wars fanfiction stories ever, and Lucas Films should have hired to make Star Wars, for you're the right person for these stories. May the force be with you, and peace out, my brother, and spread the love! If this video got more likes and had a sequel, I would like to see a future Vader have descendants rule the galaxy under a firm hand with Kylo Ren and Rey, the new Emperor and Empress of the universe. Also, what do you think of "What if Grand Adrimal Thrawn had become the new Emperor of the Galactic Empire"? What do you think the ideas, Mr. Pente Patrol? Any thoughts, comments, and opinions about these ideas?

[@Your_Casual_Fan]

I love this story, but i do wish The Emporer was cut out later than at the start.

Horror story: What if Anakin broke Padme's neck while choking her, killing her and unborn children right on Mustafar. Pissing the Force off that it made Padme a spectral incarnate of unadulturated rage and hated (with no love remaining) to punish Vader by torturing him emotionally and mentally, preventing him from becoming de-sensitized. Constantly force Vader into hellish nightmare everyday, suffocating him in terror and guilt of not only killing his wife pregnant with twins but being responsible for countless deaths. Vader will never be able to expierence a respite with both Sidious and the Force forcing him to live.

This is a great scenario but what if Valkorian/Vitiate left the star wars galaxy and consumed all life of another galaxy around the size of the star wars galaxy during the clone wars. Imagine the disturbance in the force billions of times worse then Alderan. Since billions of worlds full of life or just force energy are drained. He would be able to throw planets and would become a threat to the star wars galaxies existence. As he devours all life of galaxy after galaxy. Causing a sense of desperation for all force users in the star wars galaxy. They put aside their differences and create a order which has combined knowledge from all orders that were from the light, dark or in between. As they try to research some way they can stop the god of death(Valkorion) from snuffing out galaxies.
