What if Revan SAVED Qui-Gon Jinn in The Phantom Menace

what if Revan awakened in The Phantom Menace and saved Qui-Gon Jin let's explore the depths of it in the video the theed Royal Palace hums with a clash of lightsabers the air thick with tension as the Jedi and Sith Circle each other for the first time in centuries and then the Sith strike Darth Maul rushes forward his lightsaber a blur of speed and Precision Driving Quon Jin back toward the plasma Gates he is unused to fighting against a double-bladed saber the movements are twice as fast and comfort from the most unusual angles leaving him unable to Halt their attacks as effectively behind him Quon Jinn bangs his fist against the energy barrier that leaves him trapped and unable to help his master Quon breathes heavily sweat beating on his forehead he deflects a flurry of strikes but Maul is unrelenting each blow heavier than the last then an opening Maul FS high before pivoting low his saber cutting through the air toward quon's midsection and then it happens the force trembles a pressure ancient and immense ripples through the ground a deep hum vibrates and plasma Gates flicker distorting for the briefest moment letting Obi-Wan rush in but also someone else cloaked in a war torn robe dark armor peeking through the fabric he emerges from The Unseen depths of the force itself his presence is overwhelming raw commanding and his red Mandalorian mask only adds to his appearance he his head in confusion before glancing over towards Maul Revan has returned Maul snarls instincts screaming danger he pivots redirecting his momentum against the new threat but Revan moves faster without thoughts without hesitation he extends his hand an invisible shock wave slams into theal launching him backward like a ragd doll he crashes into the dur wall denting it on impact before tumbling to the floor in a Crouch his yellow eyes burned with Fury as he steadies himself but he does not attack he watches he calculates Quon still catching his breath pushes himself up gaze locked on the warrior before him who are you I am Revan quon's eyes widen as that name is like a thunderbolt across his body a name spoken with fear a name worthy of awe and one of infamy I also know what he is a Sith oh good I didn't one of the stupid Jedi Maul growls and lunges his saber spins in a crimson Arc toward revan's throat Revan moves channeling the force to his side and halting Maul's attack in midair as if held in place by an invisible hand he is hurled backward once more this time smashing through a control console Sparks shower around him as he crashes to the floor snarling Maul pushes himself up his gaze flickers between Revan and Quon the battle has changed this is no longer a duel it is a battle of unknowns and the Sith Lord knows better than to fight an enemy he does not yet understand without a word Maul Retreats Vanishing into the depths of the palace corridors silence follows master who is this a legend thankfully the rest of the battle goes well as Padme captures new gunray and the droid control ship is destroyed leaving the droids to deactivate but as there is a celebration but as there is celebration Qui-Gon and Revan stand at the edge of a balcony overlooking theed so you wish to join me in training Anakin you are powerful but Power alone is not enough and what would be enough balance wisdom I've seen what happens when the Jedi forget their purpose I sense you have seen the same and yet I find no balance in you Revan has seen it he has lived it and now without full memory he feels the truth of it crawling at the edges of his mind the Republic is crumbling war is coming yes and it is the boy who will be at its Center when it does it is not the balance you will be looking for it is power the council has refused to train him but I will not abandon him if you wish to help I will not begrudge an extra pair of hands the cold wind howls across the barren wastelands of morand the sky is a whirling storm of Darkness lightning cracks in the distance Illuminating the jagged peaks of Sith ruins anakan Skywalker stands between Quon Jinn and Revan one thing they agree on is that Anakin cannot be trained as a normal Jedi he must understand the ways of the living Force which is why they brought him here at first Anakin is confused and a little bit frightened the force here seems simply like a dark cloud giving him nothing but a sense of wrongness they explain that this is a planet strong in the dark side the force here is suffocating pressing against him like an unseen hand it makes his skin prickle his breath catches in his throat they tell him his job here is to meditate and connect with the force how can I listen when it's so loud then quiet yourself even the world is screaming at you a Jedi must not hear it some say to ignore this call but that is not the answer let it flow through you not at you you are not separate from the force Anakin Anakin closes his eyes takes a slow breath he reaches outward letting the force wash over him at first it is nearly impossible to understand like a thousand voices speaking over each other but through Revan and quon's advice they have Anakin focus on a single point The Whispers become clear not words not voices but feelings hunger ER desperation hate they gnaw at his senses pulling at his mind good do not push them away acknowledge them understand them but do not let them take hold Anakin exhales steadying himself he feels the darkness but he does not drown in it and then it becomes more audible as sounds growls hisses he realizes this is a creature the emotions it rings out Hammer anigan urging him to feel the same way and wanting to share its hunger and anger then a second voice cuts through the air sharp commanding now resist it Anakin's eyes snap open Revan steps forward eyes locked on him the force is a river but it can also be a storm you must learn to be The Rock Against the current Darkness will always call to you Anakin it will always try to pull you in if you do not resist if you do do not reject it it will consume you you must learn to resist its call and sep it Anakin turns to Qui-Gon though the Jedi Master frowns he nods his head in agreement the two begin teaching him to push back as the CLA of the creature grows stronger they tell Anakin to Exhale letting the force within him take action and to beat it back as their energies collide with Anakin he tenses and squirms around trying to make sense of it all the two Wills battle inside him and until at last he manages to push the Beast away the tension lingers between them but neither presses forward but then Revan nods excellent did you feel the creature's location before you pushed it aside I did excellent then let's go hunting it turns out the creature Anakin detected was none other than a tuata as they approach a whole pack of them appears glaring at them and bearing their teeth Revan walks ahead of them silence his presence unwavering as he ignites his lightsaber the force connects all living things some use that connection to guide others to manipulate but a warrior a warrior learns to use it as a weapon Anakin swallows he knows what this is a test Quon had taught him to connect to feel the life around him to understand it Revan was teaching him something else suddenly the T lunge forward the first one that leaps is swiftly cut down Revan sidest steps the second which rushes towards Anakin until Quon drives his lightsaber in its back Anakin stretches out with the force feeling the great BEAST's presence ahead as the third appears he channels the force to throw it back but even as he knocks it aside Revan is in the thick of fighting his lightsaber is a whirlwind of Destruction while quagon fights defensively Revan rushes Into the Heart of the action a growl pulls Anakin away as a tokata lunges at him he suddenly feels an overwhelming hunger wash over him as the Beast opens its jaws acting on Instinct Anakin severs their connection and shoves the creature away with the force taking a moment to catch his breath Anakin looks over at Revan he feels the passion and rage within him not in tandem but two separate entities clashing just as he fights there is also another thing Joy the joy of fighting and killing soon enough the rest of the dukata retreat or are slain Revan walks over to him and nods well done however this is far from over as the two take Anakin all across the Galaxy to train him over the years they go to debah to dantoine to damir and the smoking ruins of malachor they travel across the outer rim connecting with people in the Galaxy that become increasingly divided their arrival comes at a fortuitous time as the outer rim seems permanently rocked in crisis after crisis new Wars gangs enlarging their foothold and secessionist cries all grow and develop across the region while it certainly gives them plenty to connect to it leaves Anin struggling to overcome the chaos that is happening all around him instead of just Sith beasts now it is people who release the dark emotions doubt fear anger and frustration are everywhere he goes but unlike the tocatas he cannot simply kill them this time here is where Revan offers him another strategy to deal with these emotions action just as he ended the dark influence of those Sith beasts by slaying them he encourages Anakin to act and find those responsible to bring them to justice on a certain level Quon agrees and tries to help people however he can the problem is he no longer has the Jedi resources and can only do so much he Volunteers in different places doing small acts as Charity things like helping heal the sick rebuilding a shattered Village and escorting travelers to some extent they do help Anakin feel better but the darkness persists and instead Revan offers a new Step he says that while not wrong quon's actions are to reactive and suggests something proactive while they were escorting a group of merchants they overhear some news of a slaver ship transporting a group of captives to a local Warlord the two find the ship in a canyon its landing gear planted firmly on the ground as the slavers load the last of their captives onto the ship twin moons cast Pale Light across the desert floor their glow flickering over the weathered Hall inside Beyond layers of rusted Dura steel people huddled together frightened Shackled waiting for a fate they can already imagine Anakin crouches on the ridge sensing their presence sensing the fear and uncertainty in them he uses it to fuel himself ensuring he acts with certainty below Patrol droids March their sensors sweeping the perimeter a shadow moves beside him Revan remember what I told you don't fight the darkness and don't let it control you use it Channel it focus it make it serve you Anakin swallows his fingers tightening around his lightsaber and then he leaps off the ridge Landing in the middle of four droids he spreads his arms out and throws them all back letting their sparking bodies litter the valley floor the slavers gasp and whirl toward him blasters raised Revan drops from above his weapon flashing the fight is over in seconds Anakin approaches the ship his lightsaber slashes through the locking mechanism the door hisses then groans open the slavers barely have time to reach for their weapons Revan moves like a phantom his blade cutting through their ranks with ruthless Precision Anakin follows striking down those who resist disabling those who surrender the air is thick with the scent of burnt metal the echo of bodies hitting the floor the captives stare at them uncertain free them as Anakin removes their shackles Revan Pilots the ship to a nearby Town letting the people out and letting them keep their ship the slaver's weapons and whatever equipment they need their leader thanks them and Anakin feels another sensation wash over them where there was fear and doubt something new stirs a power buried long ago hope the two return back to their camp in a festive mood they trade smiles and Revan offers praise to the young Jedi but as they make their way back to their shelter Quon is waiting for them with his arms crossed it's done and what have we done Revan we freed them we did what the Jedi should be doing we are warriors and warriors take action we're peacekeepers we're meant to help these people not act as Vigilantes you're leading him down a dangerous path I'm giving him something the Jedi never did the ability to choose to act to be what a Jedi is meant to be are you saying that I shouldn't have freed those slaves no I I do not make things as simple as they are you may be right but I simply ask you this where do we draw the line when is our meddling too much who will hold us accountable when we make a mistake these are the lessons Anakin must learn before we do something like this you'd be surprised what guilt can do to someone's conscience it can work better than any law and what should happen if the gangsters decide to retaliate we we deal with them too so we would get involved in politics just as the Jedi getting involved in politics yes we are but not under the Jedi not under the chancellor we decide where we go who we help how we help that's for us to decide the road to the dark side is paved with good intentions Revan and yet we keep walking Anakin listens to both sides but finds himself gravitating towards Revan more he had to admit their actions that day made him feel good far better than he's felt in a long time since he began this training and when Revan offers to take him to more missions like this he readily agrees soon enough the two of them are raiding pirate dens freeing more slaves and hunting down Warlords although Quon does try to dissuade them neither one seems interested in slowing down Anakin grows stronger with each passing year but he feels himself pulled apart where Quon sees the force as a current to ride Revan teaches Anakin to command the tide itself but while he sees Revan as a hero Quon sees something else something more dangerous imbalance he's heard stories of the Jedi Master before and studied his life back in the day Revan was Infamous for his iron discipline his control and pragmatism but now he grows more into a loose cannon not letting himself slow down little does he know that there is a growing turmoil within the ancient Jedi when he lived during the time of the Old Republic he found it in a time just like this full of turmoil and Corruption a part of him sees this again and takes it personally as if it is his job to prevent it from happening again although he refuses to admit it Revan does not let his emotions factor in his anger and frustration but most of all his rage he doesn't just kill those to bring them to justice he kills them out of satisfaction and blood lust he wants to make make them pay and perhaps none more than n gunray despite being arrested for his involvement in the Nabu crisis The nordian Remains influential and the right bribes allow him to avoid prison time instead being sent to kodia for house arrest secured by battle droids in Nan guards this is too much for Anakin and Revan who after seeing everything the Viceroy has done are disgusted at how easily he is being let go their anger is so great that they decide to take the matter into their own hands the two make their way to kordia sprinting across the suspended Bridges as the pair sneak into the pleasure house that n gonr calls his prison the few guards there don't seem to notice them as they slip through the Shadows that is until revan's lightsaber flashes sending their bodies toppling over the edge there is a surge of excitement in Revan as he watches them fall the ne modian guards soon spot them in panic their blasters firing wildly as the pair deflect their shots and cut them down they step over the bodies without a word this wasn't War it was a culling gunray clad in silken robes hears of this attack and hurries down the steps tripping over his robes as he hears the sound of fighting drawing closer he barely manages to reach the patio when he stumbles to the ground and a pair of figures appear I can pay you triple no five times whatever you want you think this is about credits this is Justice The Long Time Coming Anakin's grip on his lightsaber tightens as he picked pictures Padme having to deal with this slime he recalls how nuke gunray occupied her City enslaved her people and killed the gungans he sees the trade federation's occupation of nibu he saw the starving citizens the powerless guards the suffering that gunray had bought and sold with impunity you don't deserve to live this is murder this is Justice Anakin hesitates there is something raw in revan's voice something unchecked the longer he held gunray the more the Shadows around him seem to stretch feeding off his anger Anakin raises his lightsaber and brings it down ending the vice Roy's life in a snap Revan nods in approval as the two head out when they return to Quon the Jedi Master gives them a look of disapproval saying they might not realize what they have Unleashed unfortunately Quon is right as little did they know that n gunray was a part of the burgeoning CIS Council and seeing one of their members being killed by a Jedi sends them into a frenzy they demand IM immediate retribution as Revan and Anakin have no allies Dooku finds them easy prey to test their new Droid Army their first Escape is from koda's Moon where they make their Camp commando droids drop from The Ridges their red photo receptors glowing as Blaster Rains Down Anakin deflects what he can but there are too many Revan carves through the closest droids but more take their place pouring out of transport ships Landing they hijack a nordian freighter blasting through the blockade just as more separa as ships arve from there the chaos doesn't stop on rith they barely make it to the Twilight deserts before vulture droids scream down from the skies obliterating their cover Revan fights like a man possessed but his frustration grows with every battle the droids are soulless you can't feed off them can't manipulate them Anakin watch as as his master grows more aggressive more Reckless there are so many of them an entire Army's worth of Droids that just appear from nowhere on Bel ni they hope to lose their pursuers in the storm rocked oceans but Dooku anticipates their plan squads of magnaguards deploy ahead of time their Electro staffs crackling in the Rain the Fright is brutal Anakin barely pulls Revan from the wreckage of a crumpling temple before they escape off world none of this makes sense the huge Army the Relentless Chase and their situation to try and make sense of it Quon decides to depart and try to gather more information but as they Retreat Dooku decides to turn his attention to the people they once helped the separatists know their game punish those who Harbor them enslave entire Villages as retribution Revan watches in horror as settlements burn as Innocents suffer because of his actions and for the first time he has no way to stop it Anakin doesn't understand why Quon is gone at first he assumes the old master has abandoned them Revan too is furious he fights harder strikes deeper hoping to carve his answers from the Galaxy but Quon gun does not return and every battle leaves them more alone the war machines feel endless like a vice tightening with every jump to hyperspace then after weeks of fleeing a transmission reaches them quon's voice calm but urgent the answers are on damir Anakin wants to argue Revan is suspicious but they have no other options their latest stolen ship is barely holding together separa starships are already in Pursuit and droids start to surround them firing upon the ship until its alarm begins to blare cursing the two have no choice but to bail out they ignite their lightsabers blocking the Blaster fire and try to hold them back Revan and Anakin unleash a burst of force Power throwing them back as the two rush in starting to cut their way through the Droid forces hundreds fall on the ground but more take their place and leave the two on a small rise as the droids arrive just as the droids begin their assault a new presence emerges from the Shadows a captured freighter appears and night sisters emerg from the doorway firing their energy bows at the droids keeping the droids back as the ship lands you are expected come with us the last thing Anakin sees before the ship jolts into the planet's atmosphere is revan's wary expression as the night sisters extend their hands in welcome Anakin and Revan step out onto the rocky terrain looking up at the reddish sky and towering trees their branches writhing like grasping hands the air is thick with Dark Energy but both have too much on their mind to fall for it the night sisters lead them back to their Fortress where mother Talen stands to their surprise Quon is there too you made it I should have listened to you Quon my anger Blinded Me perhaps but you weren't entirely wrong the Republic is rotten and Palpatine is the Sith Lord behind it all your actions upset their plans and force them to act everything shall be revealed long ago Sith took much from me from my people my son was stolen by this Sith Lord to be used as his Apprentice doth more but he returned to us thanks to you for that we owe you a debt now we shall help you upset their plans the shadow moves from the Mist stepping into the flickering torch light Maul his yellow eyes burning with intensity as he assesses the newcomers Count Dooku is coming he will bring his droids his war machines his cruelty let them come my master threw me aside when I failed him now I shall make sure he pays too so what do we do we take a page from your book Revan we fight we must end the war here before it can spread out soon enough they hear the sound of metallic feet marching their way the night sisters all waste no time and arm themselves leaping into the Shadows with their blades and Bows as Maul ignites his saber staff the forest soon comes alive with the sound of combat as both sides trade fire the night sisters move like Phantoms rushing in and striking down their opponents with otherw worldly speed their movements are fast and aggressive slicing through the slow moving storm as Darth Maul stands in the center his saber staff spinning as he blocks Blaster fire and holds them down and then lightning emerges from the trees as talson joins in but as this happens Dooku strides through the battlefield ignoring the night sisters as he makes his way over towards the three Warriors Quon I warned you once about getting involved in Affairs beyond your control you should have listened and I warned you that you are following the wrong Master let's see if I can finally make you believe it rev and Anakin flank him rushing from either side but Dooku pulls back and deflects their lightsabers one at a time before thrusting forward and forcing them to scatter Quon forces his saber down and tries to hold it there to disarm him however neither side gives him a chance to relax as they both strike it him again instead of avoiding Dooku moves into strike letting his momentum carry him forward just as he switches to a slash at Revan the ancient Jedi leaps back and finds himself on the defensive while Dooku Reigns down attacks on him you know Palpatine has been deceiving you that's the nature of the Sith why play into his W Brad race perhaps for a relic like you but I understand this game I know how to win it duu leaps back when he sees his strike failing to crack revan's defenses just as anakan strikes at him in response he unleashes a barrage of lightning however the young Jedi deflects it and comes rushing in he expects an easier time from Anakin but the Jedi movements are unusually refined and graceful rather than break under his attack Anakin meets them he doesn't rise to the bait and instead holds his ground and advances slowly methodically Dooku grits his teeth he disengages with a flourish and looks toward the battlefield droids being torn apart by Night sisters Maul carving through their ranks like a beast unleashed his expression darkens his confidence wavering but before he can relax entirely Qui-Gon rushes in he aims a strike high that Dooku deflects but the younger Jedi shoves him back with a kick and then sweeps low forcing the count to LEAP up the Jedi failed you but that doesn't mean you must fail yourself join us help us expose Palpatine I advise you listen to him your former Padawan is a lot wiser than he looks indeed he stopped me from making mistakes in the past Dooku hesitates the battle rage is around them but in this moment the war within his soul is far greater the years of lies of manipulation of following a master he had never fully trusted all of it weighs on him finally he exhales deactivating his lightsaber as the last of the droids are defeated Dooku offers to testify revealing the information about the CIS Council and how it helped influence new gunray's early release he makes sure that all the members of the CIS are caught up in this as well as Palpatine but these claims are backed up with fact as Dooku also presents some of the documents he's gathered over the years to back up his claim Palpatine is stunned by this and can barely react as he's ordered to be arrested with the Jedi in Senate against him he has little choice but to Bow his head in defeat and accept it as he is in no position to challenge them in the meantime the Jedi began a thorough investigation to understand everything that happened and how they could have missed something so important here Revan and Quon are welcomed back while Anakin is sent to help restore peace in the outer rim that's our Theory the Star Wars universe is a Galaxy filled with exciting stories and possibilities and we
