(SW) Darth Vader  The Fall of a Hero

I have encountered a vergence, a boy, the cells of the highest concentration of midichlorians I have seen in a life form. You refer to the prophecy of the one who will bring balance to the force. You believe it's this boy? What will happen to me now? The council have granted me permission to train you. You will be a Jedi, I promise. Anakin Skywalker, he was my master. Ahsoka, a very wise Jedi once said nothing happens by accident. It is the will of the force that you are at my side. I gave Qui-Gon my word, I will train Anakin. We'll be fine, as long as we stay together. I love you, Annie. These visions you have. The air of pain, suffering, death. Just help me save Padme's life. I can't live without her. Only through me can you achieve a power greater than any Jedi. I'm sorry, I have seen that it is the Jedi who will stand in the way of peace. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering. I won't lose you the way I lost my mother. I am becoming more powerful than any Jedi has ever dreamed of. Learn to know the dark side of the force and you will be able to save your wife from a certain death. You have allowed this dark lord to twist your mind until now you have become the very thing you swore to destroy. It's Anakin. I feel like something terrible has happened. Who? Who could have done this? I have failed you, Anakin. I have failed you. My brother, Anakin. Your father was seduced by the dark side of the force. He ceased to be Anakin Skywalker and became Darth Vader. A powerful Sith you will become. Henceforth you shall be known as Darth Vader. The boy you trained, gone he is. Consumed by Darth Vader. He's more machine now than man. Twisted and evil. I was beginning to believe I knew who you were behind that mask but it's impossible. My master could never be as vile as you. The fear, the anger, the hate. Do you feel that? The cold. Anakin Skywalker was weak. I destroyed him. The good man who was your father was destroyed. Then I will avenge his death. You cannot escape your destiny. You must face Darth Vader again. If you only knew the power of the dark side, Obi-Wan told you what happened to your father. He told me enough. He told me you killed him. No. Anakin. I won't leave you. Anakin. Good luck. He is like my brother. I can't do it, man. I cannot do it. I can't kill my own father. You can't do this. I feel the conflict within you. Let go of your hate. It is too late for me, son. Kanan said he was the greatest warrior the Jedi had in the universe. He was powerful. Rarely lost a battle. What would have surprised people was how kind he was. He cared deeply about his friends and looked out for them until the end. You are strong and wise, Anakin, and I am very proud of you. I have trained you since you were a small boy. I have taught you everything I know, and you have become a far greater Jedi than I could ever hope to be. And he was a good friend. I know there is good in you. The Emperor hasn't driven it from you fully. I am a slave, just as you are. The force within him is stronger than any known Jedi. I've trained him as well as I could, but he's still willful and balance eludes him. Stop. Stop now. Come back. I love you. Your thoughts betray you, father. I feel the good in you. Is he not the Chosen One? Is he not to destroy the Sith and bring balance to the force? If he is the Chosen One, we'll discover it here. You are the Chosen One! He is the key to everything.
