Welcome back to the finale of what if Ahsoka joined Anakin and Obi-Wan to rescue Palpatine.
Thank you to those of you who watched either of the other parts of this video! To recap
what happened in those episodes, in the event you haven’t seen them, Ahsoka had helped
a successful rescue of Palpatine, but they had not managed to capture Dooku or Grievous.
The Separatist leaders had been dispatched by Sidious to deal with Maul, falling perfectly
into the Jedi trap, resulting in the death of Grievous. Whilst Dooku had been thought
to have also fallen, he is on the run, as the Jedi decide to pursue Maul first…
As if they had sensed their intentions, the Nite Owls drop down from the sky, and report
that Maul’s forces were still lurking on Sundari, waiting for the Jedi to make their
move. Obi-Wan knew that Maul wanted to kill him, and using himself as a lure, he walked
into the throne room alone, and placed a Jedi beacon transceiver on the floor, hoping the
signal could find Maul’s forces. Gar Saxon soon entered through one of the open windows,
and as the Jedi had hoped, Maul soon followed him. The Zabrak taunted Obi-Wan for his failure
to save Qui-Gon, and now he would meet the same fate. The Jedi Council member refused
to let Maul get under his skin, focusing on the plan, and clashing blades with his old
adversary, the Nite Owls trapped Maul’s Super Commandos in the palace courtyard, and
Anakin and Ahsoka emerged from the corners of the room. Obi-Wan backed off to allow Anakin
to attack Maul, and the Jedi knight ferociously launched an assault of strikes, pinning the
former Sith to the vacant throne. Maul mocked the Jedi ways, and their reluctance to kill
their opponents, but Anakin impaled him with his lightsaber, and remarked that he was not
like the other Jedi. Despite the misery that Maul caused upon him, Obi-Wan could not help
but hold his foe, and with his final words, he revealed that there was still a chance
for Anakin to defeat his former master. The Jedi and Ahsoka stare at each other in confusion,
as the clones and the Nite Owls rounded up what was left of Maul’s forces, and they
set about acquiring their next target Dooku. Republic forces had been attempting to track
down the Sith apprentice, since his escape from the planet, but they had not been able
to find any clues. The Jedi and Ahsoka are forced to leave the planet in the hands of
Bo Katan, when Anakin received another transmission from Palpatine, asking him to return to his
office as soon as possible. Obi-Wan had been suspicious of the Chancellor’s powers, but
did not wish to share this view with Anakin, so entered into the communications room to
talk to the other Jedi Council members. Mace Windu is eager to arrest the Chancellor, as
he had not given up his powers after the death of Grievous, but the other Jedi are wary of
the threat of Dooku. Yoda decides that they should keep a track of the Chancellor’s
movements, and when Obi-Wan landed on Coruscant, he and Ahsoka followed Anakin to Palpatine’s
office. The Supreme Chancellor masked his displeasure at the sight of Obi-Wan and Ahsoka,
and quietly ordering Mas Amedda to distract them, their suspicion increases at the sound
of a speeder travelling away from the office. Barging the politician to the floor, Obi-Wan
alerts the Jedi that the Chancellor had taken Anakin away, and Windu jumps into his starfighter
to pursue them, followed by Obi-Wan and Ahsoka in a speeder. Palpatine had anticipated this,
and deployed some of Dooku’s spare droid tri-fighters to stop the Jedi, but nothing
would prevent Obi-Wan and Ahsoka, who jumped from one speeder to another, on their way
to the shady district of Coruscant, when they feel a darkness in the Force. Their speeder
is suddenly swiped from the air by Dooku’s own Flitknot, and the duo drop to the ground,
rolling to safety in the Sith’s secret hangar. Fortunately, Master Windu had arrived ahead
of them both, and his purple blade moved in a blur, when he attacked his old Jedi friend.
Obi-Wan and Ahsoka ran across from one building to the other, blasting through a former weapons
facility with their lightsabers, and shards of glass glittered the floor. Beginning to
struggle in resisting the dark side, Kit Fisto and Shaak Ti had arrived to reinforce their
forces, and they found Anakin and Palpatine in a room full of Sith holocrons. With their
combined power, the Jedi and Ahsoka Force push Anakin and Palpatine, just as the Sith
Lord is about to complete an ancient Sith ritual. The room began to glow red, and the
Jedi jump out of the way of the traps, and go after Anakin and Palpatine, who had dropped
through an escape chute. Windu had been waiting outside, and the Jedi master intercepted Palpatine
by cutting his hands off, then ordered Saesee Tiin to cuff him. Dooku had also been apprehended
by the Republic Forces, and after they had discovered the presence of the Separatist
Council on Mustafar, all of them are placed in front of the new senate in a trial. With
the corruption in the galaxy dramatically reducing, the Jedi had been restored as the
trusted peacekeepers of the galaxy, and Ahsoka decides to return to the Order as a Jedi knight,
whilst Anakin is made a master, fulfilling his unlimited potential.
That is it for what if Ahsoka joined Anakin and Obi-Wan to rescue Palpatine. If you enjoyed
