Soooo I decided that I didn't really like how things ended for Anakin with ya know, Mustafar, and stuff so I made a different timeline!

Anakin walked briskly down the halls. The Jedi Council had summoned him to talk about his future and a possible appointment to the council, however, Anakin found himself gradually losing I in the rigorous and strict ways of the Jedi Order, and with his dreams of Padme dying in childbirth, he came to a difficult decision. He, Anakin Skywalker, was going to retire from the Jedi Order. But of course, he needed the council's blessing.

Anakin found all the council members neatly seated at their seats. A reminder of how restricted he would be if he stayed. Mace Windu spoke first "Take a seat, Skywalker" He found an empty seat waiting for him. 'They added a seat? I wonder how they will react to the news.' "Thank you, Master Windu." Anakin said "We have, after long consideration, to allow you to take a seat on the council. However, we will not grant you the rank of master." Mace Windu stated. "Thank you, Windu but I have made a decision of my own." Anakin began. He got several confused looks from the other Jedi. "I have decided to leave the Order." This was greeted with shock. "Leave?! You have just been awarded a position on the council you can't leave now!" Mace Windu said indignantly. "It's my choice to make," Anakin replied. Yoda remained silent. He turned this over and over in his head. 'Leave? Done before, it has not" Yoda thought "What about Ahsoka?" Obi Wan's hologram said "She is slated for graduation to a Knight. She is more than ready to be a Jedi on her own. Of course, I will accompany her on her first mission as a Knight, and she can always visit me on Naboo." Anakin stated "I'm not leaving immediately of course. I will see the Republic through the end of the Clone Wars." "If that is what you wish Anakin. You are dismissed." Mace Windu said. Anakin gave a quick bow before turning to leave.

Sometime later

Anakin was overseeing the battle above a Separatist Holdout, Dooku dead and Ventress missing and possibly dead the CIS was on its last legs. Now the CIS leadership was fracturing into small coalitions, there was still however the mysterious words of Dooku and Fives and the case of the Clone trooper that shot a Jedi. Now that he thought about it something was... off about the battle over Coruscant. Palpatine seemed too relaxed and comfortable, he shook it off. Investigations could wait.

On Utapau

Obi-Wan was in really deep trouble. He was hanging off the side of a platform barely gripping it. Grievous was about to kill him. Worse of all, Anakin was retiring. Anakin Skywalker himself, considering retirement! The hot-headed, fierce, and loyal Jedi Knight was actually going to retire! He was barely twenty!

Obi-wan snapped back into the situation. There! A blaster! He called it with the force. It slid toward him. Grievous raised his weapon.

Fwim! Fwim!

Grievous dissolved into a fireball and soon after, ash. The dreaded Grievous, his archnemesis had died. "So uncivilized." He said. Tossing the weapon off the cliff. He got on his Boga and it leaped away to the battlefield.

At the Imperial Senate

Palpatine was infuriated. Anakin couldn't retire! He, as dreadful as it may be, needed him! He had no choice. Anakin and the Jedi were too dangerous. Order 66 had to happen soon, or the Sith would never have their revenge. Palpatine opened a transmitter. "The time has come. Execute order 66"
