312. Yoda's Announcement

"No, he is not my child. My species is a very rare one in the Galaxy. We are directly created by the Force in random places. Many of us don't survive the initial years because we are very weak in the beginning years and are easily exploited or hunted by something wild. But this child seemed to have been in the care of someone good before something happened." Yoda explained.

"Oh, so are you going to adopt him?" Alexander asked.

"How old are you?" Yoda asked back.

"16000 years probably." He replied.

Yoda's always tired eyes widened a little, "Hmmm, even older than the republic, a true master of the force indeed. I would have taken the child under me but I am too old and my lifespan will come to an end in a few years. Even by then, this child will most likely stay in his infant state.

"It would be better if you were to take him under you. Teach him new ways. Younglings like him are the future of the Galaxy." Yoda said.

"What about the Jedi Order? What are you going to do with it?" Alexander asked.

"You will know soon, follow me to the Jedi council, Grandmaster Universe. Anakin's dismissal will also be decided there." Yoda stated and started walking away. But his small body was too slow so Alexander just made him levitate with him.

"Amazing ability it is," Yoda exclaimed and soon got used to flying like this.

...

When Alexander was meeting Yoda, a meeting between Palpatine and Anakin was taking place.

"Anakin, "Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?" Palpatine asked as the senate proceedings took place in front of them.

"No." Anakin denied.

"I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midi-chlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying." Palpatine told the story while looking at Anakin's face for any changes and also the force.

Palpatine didn't actually know about Anakin's vision at all, he had instead sensed Anakin's unease and was somehow motivated by the force to tell Anakin about Darth Plagueis.

"He could actually save people from death?" Anakin asked amusingly.

Palpatine smirked, "The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural."

Then Anakin asked what happened to Darth Plagueis.

"He became so powerful . . . the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Plagueis never saw it coming. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself." Palpatine smilingly told him the rest of the story, believing that Anakin was slowly falling to the dark side.

"Is it possible to learn this power?" Anakin asked doubtfully.

Palpatine was quick to answer, "Not from a Jedi."

Anakin didn't say anything but left with a plain face, with only one thought in his head, ~This bastard is either a sith or in contact with them.~

Palpatine gloated in his seat. He wasn't able to get much out of Anakin about the new arrivals in the temple but his goal was achieved, according to him. But he had no idea the news he would receive soon would make him wanna kill himself in his sleep as he did with Darth Plagueis.

...

Jedi Temple,

Jedi High Council was held in an emergency. All the members were told to be there physically or through holocomm.

Alexander was also invited and given a seat. It was a bit unsettling for many, but Grandmaster Yoda allowed it.

However, there were three more people that shouldn't have been there. They could understand Master Ragnarok being there but not the others.

"Why is an expelled Jedi allowed in the council, why is she even allowed inside the temple?" Mace Windu questioned.

Mace deeply respected Yoda and regarded him as the oldest and wisest Jedi of his time. He always obeyed the ancient Jedi Master, though, as a senior member of the Jedi Council, he was one of the few who dared to question him, though he rarely did so and today was not one of those days when he would sit quietly.

Alexander quickly spoke to diffuse the situation. "She is my disciple so she has the right to be where I am. Even more so when we are going to have a discussion on another of my disciple."

"Okay, I can agree to that, then why is he here? And is that chocolate?" Mace pointed his finger at Yoda Junior who was in Ahsoka's arms like a teddy bear and was busy happily eating his chocolate. He saw the finger-pointing at him and looked around to understand what did he do now.

"Ah, don't be so heartless, Director Fur... I mean Master Mace. Look at his face, how can you get angry at him? Besides, I have adopted him so he can stay." Alexander said, ignoring the slip of the tongue he just had.

"Cute, he is," Yoda interjected, looking at Yoda junior and probably reminiscing about his younger days.

"Yes, very cute," Ki-Adi-Mundi added.

"Awww..." Shaak Ti fawned over him from a distance.

"*Cough* about my trial?" Anakin had to get up to remind them about why they were there.

Everyone quickly returned their attention back to the meeting. Yoda started speaking first, "Thought a lot I have. Growing too old I am. But today, I learned more about the Force than in hundreds of years of my life."

Yoda explained to everyone what Alexander told him. Many of them were so immersed in the whole teaching that they didn't even see Ragnarok sitting in the corner taking bowls and bowls of food out and eating them.

Alexander also explained what he understood about the force. It was like the life energy of the universe and after multiple uses, he had a good understanding of it.

In the end, Yoda made his decision. "I have decided to give up my authority to Grandmaster Universe. He will be our new teacher, guide, and leader. He will bring order to the Galaxy. I know. The force told me"

Yoda's declaration was huge to many order members, Alexander was now like the rich kid who got first because he had money and the others who worked hard were sidelined. Especially Mace as he was the strongest, probably even stronger than current old Yoda and he was expecting to become the next Grandmaster.

Alexander stood up and decided to propose an idea, Jedi were prideful people so it was to be expected from them to not accept this so easily.

"I accept this decision of Grandmaster Yoda, but I know many of you may have doubts about me. About my strengths. As a Jedi, peace of mind is very important, so, let's go out and spar. Whoever defeats me will become the next Grandmaster. You can also team up to fight me. Ah, I have also taught Anakin a lot. Obi-Wan, you should fight him and tell everyone how much he has progressed."

"But Anakin's been with you for just over a month," Obi-Wan argued.

"Haha, then you will get to see a miracle, Obi-Wan. Let's go to the back entrance of the temple. It is wide enough for all of us." Alexander excitedly led everyone out.

Ahsoka came to Yoda to greet him, "How are you, grandmaster."

"Fine I am, but uncertain about them," Yoda remarked, looking at all the masters walking away.
