Saga - PT Saga - Legends Death is a joke, where's the a punchline? (Shaak ti, Anakin, angst)

idea; Immortal Shaak ti


Tags, angst, body horror

Spoiler: outline

Of the various versions how many times have Shaak ti died?

Five times

Once stabbed in the back by general grievous (rots deleted scene)( likely for cw03)


Second in the back by Anakin (rots deleted scene, Jedi Temple Purge) also shown in a Flash vison in the cw 08


Trisected by Anakin (Lego Star wars)(how was that the most brutal one)

Sacrificing herself in the Force unleashed
(And get this none of this is canon anymore, so we still don't know how she died)

I have to ask

What is the Jedi version of the Darth plagueis myth?



Darth plagueis his own myth plainly states "he could save others from death but not himself"showing that his greed makes him the weakest



What is a reverse of that, quite frankly I'd argue
"She could save herself from death but not her family"


Now picture this

Anakin has just witnessed, Shaak ti gets herself stabbed(in the heart) by grievous, and assume she's dead

Only to find out she's alive during the Jedi purge

So he does what anyn sane man would do and stab her again (again in the back in the heart)
Turns out she can heal that

During the Jedi Purge she wakes up to find a wreckage of the temple she saw to care for

Horrified but determined
she seeks to put an end to skywalker rampage,

Skywalker in rage that the Jedi would hold immortality and keep it a secret, when he just wants to save his own wife (and he's also enraged at their own hypocrisy)

They dual

loses (being trisected at the neck and at the waist is(just like the Lego game(on a differences the moment she lost her lightsaber and her strength, she raised her arms up to protect herself in vain)

But she's immortal

(She could feel every bit of pain and suffering but she cannot die,

In the end she wakes up in a body bag (the empire was quite thorough cleaning up the bodies of the Jedi Temple, cross referencing it with the data banks to know who survived to begin the hunt.

Each Jedi (and all of their DNA) would be placed their own evidence bag as a way to(ensure that the evidence isn't cross contaminated

Here is the scene that I came up with

'How! how !how! is she alive!" Anakin thought enraged!

'Why do the Jedi hide these lifesaving abilities! They could use them for so much good!'

'Is it truly wrong to just want your loved one to survive?!'

the fact that he saw Shaak ti a well-respected Jedi, whom he personally saw die in front of him alive and meditating while the rest of the temple burned,

Uncaring ,quiet, deep in meditation

It personally made him angry

Quietly and stealthfully, Anakin walked up behind the somehow still alive Jedi Master. Positioning himself so that the hilt of the unactivated blade was at the back of her heart. This would be quick and painless compared to the other lives dead in this slaughter. No face melted alive due to hot molted metal buckshots, no machine gun cutting down Jedi in the masses, and no cutting off limbs.

This was a simple quick and easy penetration of the heart cutting off blood flow to the brain.

In one swift motion Anakin Grab her back with with his mechanical hand& engaged his lightsaber the omni blade, growing to full length.

Creating a hole were her heart should be.

Quick easy kill.

A mercy compared to what the rest of the Jedi deserved. And it's only for kindness she gave to the clones.

Yet, Anakin was angry still, at the Jedi


The fact that they betrayed the prodigal pacifist healer Barriss offee! Forcing her to betray her very pacifist philosophy by sending her off toa brutal War where they knew she would either have to die or betray her love of life.


And forcing her to her to run away.


He was angry that the Jedi betrayed his own apprentice Ahsoka, tossing her out the moment they were suspicious, throwing away all her standing. once the damage was done leaving her with nothing to return to


If he hasn't had his own apartment to lend her, until she got back on her feet he knew she would have been on the streets or worse enslaved.

That apartment made on the money of his own personal job of mechanics and actually being trained in the Coruscantii armed forces!

The Jedi didn't even care about the clones, merely they were using them as meat armored droids!
Not to mention The fact that they refused to eradicate slavery from the start was a damnation, one of the reasons that he joined the Coruscantii army


They refuse to fight against it. Oh how Noble of them to sit in there high Ivory towers and watch! Watch as the rest of the Galaxy suffer!
The sandy goddesses have mercy, ever since he was brought o the Jedi temple at the ripe old age of 13 , his opinion of these or'diniis just kept falling!
He didn't think it could get worse.



And now they have the gaul to hide the ability to cheat death itself for their own selfishness!

Not even for the sake of others survival!

It's sickened him, and he was glad of this eradication. A chance to wipe the slate clean

"Appo!"

"Yes, General?"

"Try and ensure that the information archives are secure, I want to ensure that their data be used for future use."

"Yes, Sir!"


-------hours later after much slaughter------

"So, it seems you survived,madter Shaak ti, I'm surprised you healed that quickly!"



"There are many things the force can achieve, some they've considering unnatural"

"So you have had the ability of immortality, why do you hide it why do you not use it!"

"Skywalker my pain of eternal Walk is not a gift"

"it's a burden, a curse!-

"And yet you do not use this "curse" for others,"

"Because the price is too much to pay!

a sacrifice of a loved one, damning the other one to die an eternal death

never giving the peace you so rightfully deserve! Your entire family dying before your eyes! only a sociopath would get pleasure in that existence!"
Anakin not even listening shouted
"'If that's how you want it then this time I'm going to ensure you are dead!"

 

after what felt like hours Felt like hours after the start of their fight, Shaak ti felt exhausted. An exhaustion that was deep to her bones

Shaak Ti was a master of the Makashi and Ataru forms, which determined her grace, serenity, fluency, and elegance in lightsaber combat.

However her opponent Skywalker was far more brutal. At a 6'6 bodybuilder frame the 27-year-old Jedi Knight had mastered the art of Both "Shien" and "Djem So"(form V), as well as taught in a multiple of other forms she was naturally able to overpower many Jedi

Every time she attacked he would use Djem So Perry and Counter-Strike, each each attempt at a stab would only land with a rolling off of her lightsaber and nearly into another stab of his ow


"Djem So was the creation of a group of Form III masters who felt that Soresu was too passive a form. It addressed the shortcomings of Form III, in which a Jedi Master could maintain a prolonged defense but was likewise unable to overcome a skilled opponent."from beginner's guide to Djem so(Wookipedia)

His very form actively required him to be on the assault Unlike Soresu or Ataru, she had already seen him wonderfully striking down droids and dualist alike during her time as a master during the wa rAnd now him using both in combination in the slaughter of the Jedi made her heart ache

we trained him be the very best at our very weakness,

vary few actively went into the more brutal dueling scene.

Masters Aayla Secura, Adi Gallia, Plo Koon all were those few it was only after the start of the war that it truly spiked in popularity.


Anakin had efficiently used his more strength based frame in order to overpower all of his enemies combining strikes of the force and physical punches and kicks
He was not flying high like Yoda in Ataru it was however he makes a few Ataru based moves. With powerful jumps and stunning landings destroying Jedi's guards completely eliminating them



In other words

Skywalker was a tank, able to dish out a lot of damage and block a lot of damage overwhelming an opponent's defenses.

It was a perfect counter towards her Makashi

"Djem So's sheer power, when combined with physical and Force-imbued strength, was capable of defeating a user of Makashi, a lightsaber form focused on dueling, finesse, and elegance, when employed by a skilled practitioner"from beginner's guide to Djem so(Wookipedia)


So when her lightsaber flew out of her hands, after she lost her grip she knew it was over
she had put up a good fight but she knew the days maybe Weeks or even months or years later was going to hurt and all she was doing at this point was delaying the inevitable
So in a bit of instinct

shaak ti raised her her arms to defend her head, like a boxer shielding the face to the block a punch

*SLICE*
The first to go was her hands severed at the forearms a direct consequence to her Block..
(Proceed Lego Star wars the complete saga death)

Blackout

Spoiler: Author note

[Dear readers I have been informed that my little depiction of the violence for how Shakti was temporary put down was a violation of TOS. I do not blame them as it was a brutal depiction.

If you would like to go and read that depiction I will be making an AO3 story of the same name where you'll see the full thing was already in the workshop

I apologize for this inconvenience]

When she woke up it was months after she did not feel her torso she could not feel her neck all, she felt was her head she could not scream her vocal cords have been severed she looked out and all she saw was a glimmering light in a zipped surrounding her was a black nearly opaque body bag.

When she felt what was below her she wanted to cry but she knew she could not she physically could not her eyes had already been drained of water...
