Raid on the Jedi Temple

''Do what must be done, Lord Vader. Do not hesitate, show no mercy.''-Palpatine

After Anakin Skywalker pledged himself to Darth Sidious's teachings, he became Darth Vader. Palpatine declared the Jedi Order as a threat to the soon to be Galactic Empire. Anakin was assigned to the daunting task of rampaging through the halls of the Jedi Temple and stop this growing "threat". The troopers of the 501st Legion were quietly transferred to Coruscant from Felucia, Mygeeto, Utapau, and Kashyyyk to serve Lord Vader during the mission.

Marching to the gates of the Temple, Anakin was confronted by Gate Master Jurokk, asking him about Mace Windu's safety. Anakin asked him where Shaak Ti was, being she is the usual gatemaster. He replied that she was in the temple meditating. He once again asked him if something was wrong, and Anakin responded by igniting his lightsaber through his head.

Upon entering the temple, he ordered Jocasta Nu acess to the com room. Sensing something suspicious, she ignited her lightsaber, but was pulled into Anakin's lightsaber with the force. She managed to telepathically communicate with the Bear Clan to hide in the council chambers. Rampaging through the halls, he made his way into the hangar, using a defense turret to destroy Jedi Starfighters. A private informed him that a Jedi, Cin Drallig, managed to penetrate upper-level defenses. Anakin told him that he would deal with him.

On the way to Drallig's location, Anakin slaughterd the younglings of the Bear Clan in cold blood. In the briefing room, Drallig's apprentice, Serra Keto, confronted him and engaged him in a duel. Jumping on a balcony, Anakin cut down a pillar, and used it to crush her. Drallig, witnessing her death, avenged it in a duel. Pushing Anakin out of the window, they engaged in the temple courtyard. Pushing Anakin far from him, as he came in for the killing blow, Anakin threw his lightsaber into his stomach, killing him.

Meanwhile, the 501st Legion captured the council chambers and engaged the Temple Security Force. The Jedi attempted to destroy the holobooks in the library to prevent them from learning Jedi information. The troopers managed to save several bookcases from destruction for a scan to take place. Anakin arrived in from his outdoor duel with Drallig, and collected several holocrons containing Jedi and Sith information. After, he snuck into Shaak Ti's meditation chamber, and killed her while she was meditating. Cleaning up the remaining Jedi, the temple was secured.
