Padawan Ben Continuation Part 5

aphorisnt:

The latest edition of the PadawanBen saga is here and I think I got carried away again because it’s over 2k but whatever. We’re getting close to the end now!! I think there’s gonna be 4 more parts, 5 if it gets too long, and a short epilogue of sorts.

All my love and thanks to @swpromptsandasks​ for the awesome opportunity to play in the sandbox that is her au and granting me the honor of finishing this lovely story she created.

As always, any feedback is hella appreciated!!

(Part 1/Part 2/Part 3/Part 4)

Anakin stood frozen, watching the
battle in front of him.

His instincts were screaming at him
to fight, to jump in alongside the other Jedi and destroy the Sith, but he
couldn’t bring himself to move. He knew killing Palpati-the Sith Lord–he’s not my friend the Chancellor, he’s a Sith,
Anakin reminded himself–was the right thing to do and his duty as a Jedi, but
he couldn’t bring himself to lift his ‘saber.

aphorisnt:

Ok, friendos, here is the next installment in the PadawanBen saga.

All my love and thanks again to @swpromptsandasks for the chance to finish the lovely fic she began and we’re getting closer to the end!! I’m thinking maybe 3-5 more parts depending on how I break them up and whether or not I can keep myself from writing a novel. Now I just gotta figure out how the fuck to end this thing. I can do happy or sad but can’t decide which to write yet!

Speaking of writing, this part is about 1.5k, not as long as the first one but still not short. Any feedback you fine folks feel like giving would be super appreciated!!

(Part 1/Part 2/Part 3)

“Anakin, my boy, come in, come in,”
Palpatine called from his office with a cheerful demeanor. “How are you? And to
what do I owe the pleasure of your company this afternoon?”

PadawanBen Continuation Part 3

aphorisnt:

Here it is, the not very long probably not awaited third part of my continuation of the PadawanBen saga. Thanks again to @swpromptsandasks for allowing me to finish her story and play in the sandbox she created.

This part is about 1000 words (all under the cut), so not too bad, and same as always, any feedback you fine folks could give a fic-writing newbie would be hella appreciated!!

Also: tw for description of panic attack. If that’s triggering for you but you still wanna read, skip the beginning and go right to the single sentence paragraph “Where is he?” and you should be safe. I’ll bold it too so it’s easy to find. I promise you’re not missing anything plotty, just emotional character stuff (sorry, I kinda live for that shit so there’s a lot of it).

Padawan Ben Continuation Part 2

aphorisnt:

All right, here it is, PadawanBen part 2 and this part is only about 300 words, so much a quicker read this time. I know it’s tiny but this didn’t really fit anywhere else, and since it’s so short I’ll probably post the next part tomorrow so long as I finish it in time. Many thanks and undying appreciation to @swpromptsandasks for letting me finish this fic!!

Again, any feedback is super appreciated since I’m still learning how to do this whole fic writing thing.

(Part 1/Part 3)

“It is done,”
Ventress’s voice said through the comm.

“Excellent work,
Assassin. Now, keep a close eye on him. We can’t have anyone finding him and we
can’t have him dying before he…fulfills his purpose.

“Yes, Lord
Sidious.”

With that, Sidious
shut off his private comm and returned it to the drawer in his desk where it
would remain hidden from prying eyes. So far everything was proceeding
according to plan.

The assassin had
practically waltzed into the Jedi temple, breaking into the Halls of Healing
and absconding with that obnoxious Jedi clone before anyone was the wiser. Now
the boy was safely ensconced in Sidious’s secret hideout of sorts: a building
in the heart of an otherwise abandoned are of The Works from which he conducted
most of his Sith dealings on Coruscant. He had spared no expense either,
furnishing a room with high-quality medical equipment and a top of the line med
droid to keep the boy alive. After all, it wouldn’t do for him to pass away
before Sidious put his death to good use. All it would take was the loss of his
husband to push him over the edge and Anakin would serve Sidious forever.

He had to
wonder, though, just what was causing the boy’s condition. From what Anakin had
said no one could find evidence of any virus, infection, or injury, so the
cause of illness remained unknown. It was no great matter, the boy would die
regardless, but it was a curious question nonetheless.

He resolved to
check on the boy himself later and get a sense of his condition and order a
full autopsy after the boy’s death. The information could prove useful should
he need to clone a force-sensitive being in the future.

For now,
however, Sidious was content to bask in the knowledge that everything was
progressing just as he had orchestrated. The galaxy would be his; it was only a
matter of time.

Padawan Ben- is Anakin able to save his love? Or is Ben doomed to die? Will Anakin turn?

swpromptsandasks:

Oh man, okay I’m
sorry but Moddy is copping up to this, I can’t finish this story. I
honestly can’t figure out what comes next and just…

Well this is me
abandoning it, the first time I’m outright abandoning a story and
if anyone wants it, they can have it and try to work it better then I
have cause… wow I give up.

So for no reason except that I really wanted to know how this ended and felt like writing, I kinda started working on the rest of PadawanBen.

So far, I have this and one other part (which I’ll probably post in the next few days) done, and then at least 3-4 more which I admittedly haven’t started but will get to I promise!

My eternal thanks to @swpromptsandasks for the opportunity to finish this story and play around with her au, especially since I’m still pretty new to writing fic. Here’s hoping I can do it justice!!

This is aphorisnt’s second attempt ever (or maybe 1.5 since Moddy already started this but whatever) at ficcing so any feedback/constructive criticism would be super appreciated. (Also, if you have a preference towards happy ending or sad ending, let me know because I have yet to decide which way to take this!!)

Anyway, here’s part one (under the cut after 2nd paragraph because it grew to 2k).

“Hold on,” Mace Windu said,
holding up a hand to stop the flow of words.

Anakin stood in front of the council, trying to
explain himself while maintaining something close to the outward appearance of serenity. Though if the way Qui-Gon was squeezing his shoulder and trying to send
him calming waves through the Force was any indication, he was failing
miserably.
