[ EU ] `` Help me , Anakin ! The Jedi are taking over ! '' cried Chancellor Palpatine , as Jedi Grandmaster Yoda pointed a lightsaber at his throat .

`` He must stand trial!'' Anakin pleaded. Thoughts of Padme dying raced through his mind. 
 
 `` Too dangerous to live, he is.'' 
 
 Lightning blasted from Palpatine's fingertips and reflected from Yoda's lightsaber. Arcs danced across Palpatine's body and scarred his flesh. He pleaded for Anakin to save him, and again, he imagined Padme dying in childbirth. Lightning stopped and smoke rose from Palpatine's injured body. He lied helpless under Yoda's lightsaber. The green light moved slightly and Anakin jolted for his grandmaster. 
 
 A wave knocked Anakin several feet and he toppled over onto his back. The scent of seared flesh was in the air and Palpatine's presence was suddenly gone. The dark cloud in the Force was gone. Everything was clear, and he could n't recall his vision of Padme's death. Instead, she gave birth to two beautiful babies. 
 
 `` Yoda,'' Anakin said. Tears rolled down his face. `` I'm so sorry, I almost --'' 
 
 `` Alluring, the dark side is.'' Yoda extinguished his lightsaber and holstered it. `` Dwell on your mistakes, you must not.'' 
 
 Anakin looked behind and saw the other Jedi Master that had been cut down. Guilt overwhelmed him and he collapsed. `` What have I done?!'' 
 
 `` Dwell on your mistakes, you must not.'' Yoda approached him, and a feeling of calm washed over him. `` Alert the authorities of this, we must.'' 
 
 Anakin nodded and stood. As they left the office filled with death, Yoda looked back up him. `` Talk about your relationship with the senator, we will another time.'' 
 
 Anakin blushed. Without Palpatine's dark cloud, everything was transparent. Hiding his thoughts on Padme was no longer possible. `` I can explain.'' 
 
 `` Another time.''
