"Ah," Padme gasped, "just another nightmare." Ever since Anakin had turned to the dark side and nearly killed her she had been having a lot of nightmares about it. Padme shook off the blankets, got up and went to the sitting room and stared out into Corusant's morning.
"Oh, Milady I heard you scream. Are you alright? Can I get you anything?" See Threepio asked.
"No Threepio, I'm fine," she said.
"Oh well alright," Threepio replied as he walked away.
Padme had given Luke and Leia away for their safety. Luke was with Owen and Beru Lars on Tatonine. Leia was living with a former senator like herself Bail Organa and his wife on Alderran. Padme knew they were both safe because Obi-wan Kenobi, former Jedi was living in Tatonine and he contacted Padme every so often. Same as Bail did. Why do I feel so guilty for giving them away??? Padme asked herself.
Ever since the Emperor Palpatine had announced the beginning of the Empire, she had basically quit, she really had no choice in the matter. She was presumed dead; they really had just made a copy of her and killed it for her safety. I would've quit even if I wasn't presumed dead, she thought.
All of this sudden See Threepio came up to her again, she hadn't noticed until he said,
"Oh, milady I'm sorry to disturb you but Obi-Wan Kenobi is contacting you on the comlink. He says it's urgent!"
"Obi-wan?" Padme asked. She hadn't talked to him in months.
"Yes."
"Alright, I'm coming," Padme said as she dashed to the next room.
"Obi-wan!?!? Are you okay? How's Luke? Did something happen?"
"No I'm fine, so is Luke." She needs to calm down a little bit, Obi-wan wondered.
"Well, what is it then?"
"Ummm… I don't know how to tell you this but Darth Vader knows you're still alive." Obi-wan replied.
"What? No!"
"I'm sorry but it would be best if you stay where you are."
"No. What about Luke and Leia? Does he know about them?"
"I'm not sure. But I heard he found Ahsoka and he's going after her."
"No."
"Milady just stay calm and on Corasant."
"No no no! I'm going to find Ahsoka before he does and if I die I'll die trying."
"Padme, no, if you do then let me come with you."
"Fine," Padme said flatly.
"Really?" Wow she gave in, Obi-wan thought.
"Yes. Be on the rendezvous point on Naboo by tomorrow morning."
"Alright see you there." But I'll need a transport, he worried.
