Disclaimer: George Lucas owns Star Wars. I own a 21-year-old pickup truck. I hope that Mr. Lucas will accept this story as the tribute to his genius it is, and not sue me for what little I have. No infringement is intended, no profit is being made.
The lightsaber's blue blade sears through his wrist, and Mace Windu screams. Not because of the pain, but because in that one moment, he sees his universe end.
Sees Skywalker kneeling before Palpatine in submission.
Sees the Jedi Temple littered with the blaster-scorched bodies of the fallen. The Younglings.
Sees Yoda falling toward the floor of the senate, defeated.
Sees the Republic yield to tyranny, for the first time in a thousand years.
He sees all of this, in the space between one heartbeat and the next. When Palpatine finally hits him with the Force Lightning, it's almost a mercy.
