Coruscant.
Commonly known as the capital of the galaxy since ancient times dating back to the old Galactic Republic. The planet is an ecumenopolis. A city-covered planet, collectively known as Imperial City in the system named after itself, Coruscant, of the Core Worlds.
Though debated by historians, it was generally believed that Coruscant was the original homeworld of humanity. Noted for its cosmopolitan culture and towering skyscrapers, Coruscant's population consisted of trillions of citizens hailing from a vast array of both humanoid and alien species.
In addition, Coruscant's strategic location at the end of several major trade routes enabled it to grow in power and influence, causing the city-planet to surpass its early rivals and become the hub of galactic culture, education, finance, fine arts, politics and technology.
It was the location of several major landmarks, including the Jedi Temple, Monument Plaza and the Senate Building.
The Jedi Grand Temple, also known as the Jedi Temple, was the home of the Jedi Order; an order of Force-sensitive peacekeepers united in their adherence to the Jedi Code and the light side of the Force.
In addition to its role as the central hub of all Jedi activities throughout the galaxy, the Temple functioned as a monastery for Jedi Knights and Jedi Masters as well as a school for the training of Padawan's and initiates.
Within the temple the current Jedi High Council of Masters have come together because of a recent momentous event that has rippled in the force, communicating to them that something of great importance has happened.
Among this council were the Jedi Masters, Yoda, Mace Windu, Yaddle, Oppo Rancisis, Yarael Poof, Micah Giiett, Sifo-Dyas, Even Piell, Eeth Koth, Adi Gallia, and Plo Koon.
The attending members consisted of as many members that could be physically present while there are some seats that remained empty and a few displays created and projecting a hologram because of some Jedi Masters absence.
The backdrop provided by the high skylights and clear window-views show technological lights illuminating the night, from the councils tower that looks down upon the beautiful ecumenopolis below.
A stark contrast is the mysterious atmosphere and tension being built up an shown through the usually calm but cold emotionless faces of the Jedi High Council. Small frowns, cresses within facial features whether a species with facial features to express it, the atmosphere itself sets the tone of discussion.
Whispers and words are exchanged in hushed tones as everyone waits for the last of the council members to arrive for the meeting.
Once everyone is present, Jedi Grandmaster Yoda speaks first. Green, small in stature with pointed elongated ears, and a small walking stick. Despite his stature he is revered for his wisdom and power.
"Able to attend this meeting I thank you. Come to my attention something has. For others as well it seems."
"This meeting has been called to discuss what most if not all of us has has very recently experienced." Jedi Master Mace Windu took over.
"A ripple within the Force. Affect all whom is most sensitive. Strong in the Force it is." Responded Yoda.
Plo Koon asks the questions that have been in everyone's mind. "Where did it originate from? From my observations and meditation sessions, I have not been able to narrow down the location to a rough estimation. Let alone its precise co-ordinates."
"Has anyone had any other luck?" Mace Windu poses towards the rest of the room.
The lest talkative of the current council speaks, and looks like a female version of Yoda, that is Jedi Master Yaddle, prominent in her precognitive and perceptions into the future.
"A disturbance. It has disbalanced the force but it does not lean to either side in the balance. I cannot see into the possible future of this vergence."

A few weeks had passed by as Anakin got adjusted to his new situation.
His body was developing some hair, small tufts of a blonde shade and he had seen the color of his eyes, blue.
Within the first few days of his rebirth, he was confused but slowly started to become excited at the prospects of the universe he finds himself in.
Not only has he been reborn as the character with supposedly the best potential in using the Force, thankfully he had also brought with him the best gift possible from his past life.
Knowledge.
'Knowledge of the future, techniques based of the Force that I may be able to recreate through experimentation and the creation of possible new abilities. What I have been focusing on, is force abilities or powers related to the mind.'
'Why? Because it is relevant and important that I am able to hide myself, my memories, emotions and thoughts from others. Especially other trained Force-sensitive individuals.'
From what he understood, he should be able to do many miraculous things that he would not have been able to in his previous world simply because he has access to the Force.
He noticed that he had already been developing psychic powers where he was starting to feel the emotions of those around him. Starting to see the thoughts of others.
Control of these abilities is what he is trying to achieve, he has an understanding of what powers he could practice but doesn't have a place to start other than reading another beings thoughts and emotions.
He should be able to, once he has control of this aspect of abilities start to experiment and maybe he would be lucky enough to find other abilities.
"Ani." Shmi Skywalker, his new mother cooed as she entered the room.
After the test were done by the medical droids he had been released to his mother to take care of him.
Picking him up, Shmi holds him in her arms. "My sweet boy, are you hungry?"
She had taken a habit of talking to him as much as she could, just like any parent should help develop the minds of their children.
Not that she knows this factor considering her life, but it was progress nonetheless. This would help him gather information on how to speak the basic language, not that he would need it considering the existence of telepathy.
But knowing a spoken language itself will close the gap of communication.
"My Ani." Shmi starts to sob quietly holding onto Anakin still trying to grasp the situation that had landed her in this position.
Anakin seeing this starts to think to himself. 'Many times I have seen her like this, and she tries to hide it so well...'
After a minute she manages to gain composure and goes back to talking to him.
Discovering many things about his new abilities Anakin had decided that he does not want to live the life of a slave. He does not want to just be another pawn in the great scheme of things that the Force dictates.
It connects and measures.
He wants to be the master of his own destiny, to be totally free and to do this he needed a plan, a plan of escape and the power to pull off the act.
Anakin's mother took him with her to sleep next to her within her bedroom. "Sleep now, Ani. It is late." She tries to rock him to sleep, and he fakes it.
After a short while, she had put him into his cot beside her bed and she had drifted off into the dreamscape herself.
'In the end it all depends on someone's power.'
Without the strength to protect oneself, you would not have freedom. At least not true freedom in the sense you would be unrestricted in what you do and most desires could be fulfilled.
Of course freedom does not mean you would have everything in the world but it is a start.
Very, very basic meditation is what Anakin had been practicing to see if he could connect with the Force on a deeper level giving him any insights into what he could do.
Considering his precognitive abilities have also started to develop meaning he has some sort of extra sensory perception allowing him to visualize the actions someone would take in the next moment.
But that is not what he wants, or needs.
He needs an ability that would help him start his revolution, his escape from slavery and he has an idea of what that may be.
He may not be able to control those around him, his mother, the other slaves or even their current owner simply because he doesn't have the expertise on how to do so.
But what he has is some creativetivity, raw power and with some luck he may be able to do something.
At the top of his to do list.
Control some droids.
That is right, he has hypothesized and consulted with the Force itself to see if it would react to his questions, foremost being. 'Can I recreate the Force technique Mechu-Deru.'
Basically being the child of the Force itself, it would stand to reason it may become biased when it has to do with anything concerning him.
He felt a surge, a response to his question. What he felt was confirmation, that he would be able to do so.
So he tried, he knows that the original had talents in regards to technology. It was clearly seen how he was able to construct and reconstruct many, various bits and pieces and turn it into a working droid.
At least that is what the original did. Here he himself wants to do more than that.
Mechu-Deru was a dark side Force power that bestowed an intuitive understanding of mechanical systems upon the user. Invented by a Sith, and aligned with the dark side, Anakin could not think of a greater ability to help him now.
Considering he lives on a ship, surrounded by others like himself and his mother but the ship has droids, droids with which he can use.
In fact the ship itself could be controlled.
'But first I need to develop this ability.' Given that Anakin had already been starting to gain some level of understanding about how technology works here as he has been paying close attention, he had also noticed his rapid growth.
So fast did his understanding increase by leaps and bounds despite only being newly reincarnated, it had barely been a month, at least from his count.
The technique allowed its practitioners to exert their influence over inanimate and robotic constructs. Through mechu-deru, mechanical structures could be bound to the will of the user and imbued with the power of the Force itself.
And his first test experiment would be when he traveled into the common area that the slaves were allowed to go into.
Droids would be patrolling and keeping an eye out for any trouble, luckily he was but a baby. Albeit a weird one if looked at but nonetheless a helpless child that would be unable to do anything, so he would be overlooked for doing anything strange.
With one droid, it would confirm his ability, his power and would be the start of his rise.

Sheev Palpatine, alternatively known as, Darth Sidious.
Born 42 years prior on the planet Naboo to the aristocratic House Palpatine, Palpatine discovered the Sith at a young age as a collector of dark side artifacts.
When he was just 17 years of age, he met Hego Damask, a Muun businessman who was in reality the Sith Lord Darth Plagueis.
Under Plagueis' manipulation, Palpatine killed his father and pledged himself to his new Master's dark side teachings as Darth Sidious.
Living a double life for many years, serving an untarnished career as Naboo's ambassador in the Galactic Senate while learning from his master and training a young Zabrak who would later become to be known as the Sith assassin Darth Maul.
His master Plagueis along with himself were both exceptionally skilled and powerful in the Force, and were able to conceal their identities from the Jedi for decades.
Currently Darth Sidious has been planning to overtake in accordance with Bane's Rule of Two, murder Darth Plagueis and usurp the role of Sith Master.
As Plagueis more and more obsessed and privately continues his search for the key to eternal life, Sidious manipulates galactic politics, which would culminate in his plan to reform the Galactic Republic into an Empire, with himself as the supreme Emperor.
Unwittingly, an experiment done by his Master Darth Plagueis had become responsible for the procreation of Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One. This was the result of Plagueis' insatiable and obsessive drive for eternal life.
Sidious and his master, no doubt had felt the strong presence that warped and sent out a message to most highly trained force-sensitive individuals or those with great potential through the Force.
Much like how the High Jedi Council had convened a meeting to discuss the ripple, so too did Sidious and his master convene and try to locate this presence.
Unfortunately it had been a few weeks since the last the presence was felt and delving deep into the Dark Side of the Force was not helping them locate this disturbance.
His master had pointed out to him and given a mission to locate the source of this disturbance, and he in turn sent out his own trained assassins, to locate the source.
He has also been keeping an eye on the Jedi in case they had something to do with this ripple, but they are just as confused as he and his master is.
Luckily his punishment for his continued failure was put off because of his masters drive for eternal youth. The same unfortunately could not be said for his favorite trained Sith Assassin, Darth Maul. Sidious is a cruel master.
The desire to find the source lessened but the unease of not knowing something that could interfere with his plans definitely unsettled him.
More time had inevitably passed, and the pulse through the Force was pushed to the back of his mind for he had a Galactic Republic to manipulate.
His desire to become the Emperor and create and reform the Republic into the empire he would lord over was at the top of his goals.
