Anakin Skywalker vs. Darth Vader
Anakin Skywalker vs. Darth Vader is a What-If? Death Battle by User:Otherside86 and was later adopted by I, FutureJunior, between both personas of Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader.
Description[]
It's time to answer the greatest question that's been plaguing Star Wars fans for years: 'Which Side is Better?'
Interlude[]
Wiz: The Force is an energy field that surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together.
Boomstick: But once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.
Wiz: Star Wars fans have been ponder the most important question of all.
Boomstick: Which side is better? The Light Side or the Dark Side?
Wiz: And who better to represent both sides of the Force than both sides of the Chosen One, who became the galaxy's greatest hero and its greatest villain.
Boomstick: Anakin Skywlker of the Jedi Order,
Wiz: And Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith.
Boomstick: Now, I know there have been some scenarios where both Anakin and Vader have fought as a form of "inner conflict".
Wiz: But for this list, we will analyze these two halves as individuals. So that means no plot constructions and continuity is required. We'll also present these characters 'before' and 'after' Anakin's ascension to the Dark Side.
Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win a DEATH BATTLE.

Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set. It's time to end this debate once and for all!
Boomstick: IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLE!!!
DEATH BATTLE!!![]
Anakin skywalker stared out into the distance, gazing out of the windows of the jedi temple. He sighed, before sitting down in one of the council seats, as he lost himself in his thoughts.
Palpatine... Was a sith lord- THE, sith lord. The one who started this whole war, the one who he though as a friend, a father, even. But now, he knew he had a duty to do, and for the safety for the republic- the GALAXY... He had to bring him in. He told Mace, because he knew he wouldn't have the courage to do it himself.
But... What if Palpatine was right? What if this WAS the only way to save his beloved Padme? His children? his friend's, his family, the Jedi, WHAT IF... This was the only way?
What if... The dark side was what Anakin needed to save everyone? No, he couldn't. It would betray everything the jedi stood for.
But what about Padme? Well, what about the Jedi? What about his children, what about the Galaxy? What about-
"Tough choice, huh?"
Anakin basically jumped out of his seat, and faced the person who said that. A tall man with blond hair, with a smile that made Anakin temporarily his mental debate.
"I know: choosing between the Light and the dark is a bitch. But it's up to you to choose which was is the better." The man said, as he sat down next to Anakin.
"... Who are you? I've never seen you at the temple- and how did you know what I was thinking?" Anakin asked, with a confused look on his face. "I know plenty of things: Like the fact that Palpatine is the sith lord, and you have to try and choose between the dark and the light."
Anakin was taken aback. How the hell did this man know ALL of this?! Actually... was he a man after all? Him being a god in disguise wasn't out of the question, considering what went down between him and the Mortis gods.
"And no, I am no god: But a man that can help you make the choice necessary." The man said, as a golden door appeared to Anakin's right. "If you choose my way, step through the door and face your destiny. If not, stay here." The man said as he walked through the door himself.
Anakin was taken aback. What just happened? Who was this man, and what did he mean by Destiny? But Anakin pushed these questions to the back of his mind. If this way would help him make a choice: Then he'll take all the help he can get.
