"Wait!" Ahsoka called out as she entered the room all of the Jedi were within., talking about several things and also discussing what they should do next.

"Ahsoka?" The first to notice and say this name is of course Jedi Master Plo-Koon.

"Hi..." Ahsoka replied seeing all of the attention now on her.

"... Why are you here?" Obi-Wan asked, confused just as much as everyone else here that is within. All of the Jedi are also now interested as to why the girl would come here all of a sudden, as they are also aware of whom she is associated with.

Ahsoka, seeing her chance starts to explain. "I think, no I believe wholeheartedly that the Jedi should leave this planet immediately. And when I mean immediately, I mean as soon as possible in any instance which includes right now." Or at least Ahsoka tried to explain it properly but inevitably failed.

"Slow down there Padawan." Billaba said.

"I am no Padawan, and I haven't been for a long time anyway. I am not a Jedi and I am most certainly not young anymore." Ahsoka was frustrated and allowed some of her emotions to come out here, but in a controlled manner.

"We know that. I am sure Master Billaba knows this as well, but forgive her assumption that you are still a learner. Are you not?" Mace apologized and redirected the conversation, asking a question instead.

"I am in fact, NOT a learner anymore. I am quite the quick study and Skyguy is a good enough teacher as well." Ahsoka seemed proud of saying this. Some of the Jedi within snickered a little from discovering that Ahsoka has given the mighty Empyrean Emperor and Chosen One such a nickname.

"Right. You have come here because...?" Mace asked again, further steering the topic of conversation back to what is important.

"Right, right. The Jedi should leave because I have received visions through the Force about the imminent death of everyone here and possibly the rest of the Jedi Order that stays on Coruscant. There is more to it than that, but for now the Jedi should leave. All of you should leave, and at the very least not stay here." Ahsoka explained a bit better this time, but it still left the Jedi within this building with more questions than answers.

"Why should we believe in what you say? The Force is a mysterious force of the universe and as such, there is no telling if what you have sensed is even going to come true. Visions can be more than just seeing the future... Are you sure that your training is over?" This time it was Jedi Master Adi Gallia whom spoke, with Master Depa Billaba seemingly agreeing with her head nodding up and down.

"You are questioning my abilities?" Ahsoka didn't seem that angry, but she definitely felt some type of way for being looked down upon because of a combination of things. One of which likely includes her status as someone whom isn't even an adult, which would be changing within the coming week, but even more so due to the fact that she isn't a Jedi.

Biases are strong after all, even within the Jedi Order where they would see others that practice the Force not in their specific way to be bad, or at the very least consider them unorthodox.

"I think that is enough. Is there any proof or evidence that could help you back up these visions of yours?" Mace trusted in the Force just like any other, but usually it is meant to be and stay as a force that indirectly interacts with the galaxy. Most of the time it is the people within that creates change, whether that be for the good or bad.

This is where Ahsoka failed to present anything. "I... I dont have anything-BUT, that shouldn't mean that you would discount my warning, right?" Ahsoka said.

"I am afraid that if you have no way of proving anything..." Mace shook his head, and started onto another subject, where Ahsoka fails here but is still left within to hear the conversation. "We will be staying." Looking into the Force, and using his own special abilities of foresight, Mace couldn't see anything to help him with this decision.

So he could only make the choice based on his own experience, taking in what others have said and decided to stay. "While Obi-Wan's suggestion of leaving is also taken into consideration, there is also no way of knowing whether or not we would be able to have another chance like this. My senses within the Force seem to be blocked, and I have no way of knowing anything. I am sure all of you can feel the darkness as well."

"But Master Windu, leaving the planet is-" Ahsoka tried to continue, even referring to Mace with the title of Master out of respect of him being her teachers, Anakin's pervious teacher.

"I think that will be enough from you now. Your warning has been taken into consideration, but if I and the others have no evidence of such a thing..." Mace again shook his head, indicating that he was not going to continue the conversation.

Ahsoka was then escorted out as she has failed. "Damnit!" She cursed, now finding herself in an unfortunate position of having failed.

However, failure is only normal in life but this failure needed to be overcome somehow, and this is exactly when she started to hear a voice within her mind. 'You alright there?' It is seemingly Anakin communicating through the Force Dyad.

Something that he has refrained from doing due to what this would do between the two of them, further strengthening such feelings but it would seem that Anakin is either becoming less and less caring towards such things, or is otherwise worried about Ahsoka enough to ask of her current state of being.

'What!?' Ahsoka was confused, looking around before noticing that this is coming through the bond the two share. 'You... You...' Ahsoka definitely was going on a emotional rollercoaster now.

'Enough of that. Are you all right?' Anakin sent the message again, redirecting Ahsoka's thoughts and helping her refocus herself within the here and now.

'Ye-Yeah...' Ahsoka replied mentally.

'I noticed you couldn't convince them, but I am willing to help here. What say you? However, there is also going to be some punishment for you just running off like this. I am also sure by now that Zannah, Barriss and Shaak have arrived on Coruscant as well.' Anakin asked and informed her.

'Wh-What!?' Again, Ahsoka is surprised that they would chase after her... 'Well, I am not really surprised...' Ahsoka thought to herself.

'I can help you? Want it?' Anakin again coaxed Ahsoka as she still hasn't accepted his proposition. In fact, Anakin doesn't mind helping to save some more Jedi but with him being so far away, and not being able to just directly teleport there puts a hamper on his plans.

Or at least it would be that way if he didn't continue to develop Coruscant's undercity into what it is today. He is the Big Boss after all...

'Of course I want your help here!' Ahsoka replied telepathically.

'Then the deal is struck then.' Anakin replied himself, with a small amount of maniacal laughter echoing in the background of Ahsoka's mind, which most certainly raised her suspicions about just what Anakin has in mind.

Palpatine has a long and vast history within the galaxy.

Known also by his Sith name Darth Sidious or simply as the Emperor, was a Force-sensitive Human male who served as the last Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic and the first Emperor of the Galactic Empire.

A Dark Lord of the Sith in the Order of the Sith Lords, recorded by history as the most successful who had ever lived, his deeds resulted in overthrow the ancient Republic and the noble Jedi Order from within.

Noted for his sadistic and self-serving intentions just as well as his ability to conceal them, Palpatine impacted the galaxy perhaps more than any other single individual, and it is likely that his impact on history, for good or ill, was immeasurable.

Born 67 years ago on the planet Naboo to the aristocratic House Palpatine, Palpatine discovered the Sith at a young age as a collector of dark side artifacts. 44 years ago, he met Hego Damask, a Muun businessman who was in reality the Sith Lord Darth Plagueis.

Under Plagues' manipulation, Palpatine killed his father and pledged himself to his new Master's dark side teachings as Darth Sidious. Palpatine lived a double life for many years, serving an untarnished career as Naboo's ambassador in the Galactic Senate while learning from his master and training a young Zabrak as the Sith assassin Darth Maul.

Plagueis and Sidious, both exceptionally skilled and powerful in the Force, were able to conceal their identities from the Jedi for decades. As Plagueis privately searched for the key to eternal life, Sidious manipulated galactic politics, culminating in the blockade of Naboo by the Trade Federation.

In the wake of the political crisis, the Galactic Senate voted to elect him as Supreme Chancellor, and around the same time, in accordance with Bane's Rule of Two, Sidious murdered Plagueis and usurped the role of Sith Master.

As Chancellor of the Republic and Dark Lord of the Sith, Palpatine orchestrated the outbreak of the devastating Clone Wars ten years after the Naboo Crisis. He himself headed both the Galactic Republic and, secretly, the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

The public leader of this splinter faction was former Jedi Master Count Dooku, Sidious's second apprentice as Darth Tyranus in the wake of Maul's presumed death on Naboo.

As billions perished in the war, the vast majority of Republic citizens rallied behind Chancellor Palpatine, giving him enough support to amend the Galactic Constitution in the name of security and transfer most of the Senate's executive authority to his own office.

Which having explained all of this, we have caught up to what is considered current history as of this moment and a basic overview of what Palpatine has mainly accomplished. There are other smaller things, things that wouldn't be considered much at all as well.

It is without a doubt that Sheev Palpatine, known as Darth Sidious to many now as well, is a grand schemer, orchestrator of the highest levels and echelons within the development and history of the galaxy at large.

"You're heartless, ambitious, arrogant, insidious, and without shame or empathy. More, you're a murderer." Palpatine's Sith Master, Plagueis' had once said to him and Palpatine would agree wholeheartedly, if only in secret to himself, that is.

Through his own nature, Palpatine, alias Darth Sidious, seemed evil incarnate. He would insistently make that clear, however, that he did not believe himself to be evil, but simply beyond common morality, calling evil 'a label we all put on those who threaten us.'

Aside from his opinion on morality, he believed himself to be the embodiment of darkness and the living incarnation of the dark side of the Force, and, after the death of his body, he saw himself as pure energy, or simply the dark side itself.

He was instinctively treacherous, betraying and killing numerous beings who trusted him, such as Vidar Kim and Darth Plagueis. Since his youth, Palpatine's main goal had always been nothing less than the acquisition of absolute power.

In this personal quest, he showed that he was patient, arrogant, vastly intelligent, and an incredible actor. Despite his innate nature, he was able to play the part of a good and honest politician for decades; even the Jedi Council was taken in by his facade.

His skill at subterfuge was sufficient to even convince Darth Plagueis, upon the latter's revelation that he was a Sith, that he knew little of that Order, when he in fact had sought to join the Sith long before he met the Dark Lord.

As both Senator of Naboo and Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic, he appeared as an unassuming, tea-drinking old man, almost grandfatherly, with elegant robes.

With his cheery demeanor, trademark smile, and a reputation for being a kind and modest man from Naboo, he won the hearts of billions during the Clone Wars, promising to bring justice to a government mired in corruption and chaos.

This served to hide his true motives behind a perfect disguise in order to gain acceptance from his new Empire.

The Emperor's popularity was such that Vader, before killing Palpatine, even pondered the possibility that the Empire would be horrified at the Emperor's impending death, with several citizens of the Empire even considering him to be a demigod.

Much in the same manner the people of the Empyrean did for Anakin, but it is much, much more worse with them considering Anakin a divine being and god.
