AN: I changed the "flashback" from a year to two months.

Story: There is No Emotion

Plot: AU-How about instead of Anakin, Obi-Wan turns to the dark side? I LOVE Obi-Wan but he needs to make a mistake once in awhile. Sabe/Obi romance and Ani/Ami in future chapters.

Rating: pg-13 for now

Disclaimer: None of this is mine! Wahh! Well, except for the plot and I may end up making up a few characters.

Also, the part in italics is an excerpt from the book Attack of the Clones by Patricia C. Wrede with a few of my own modifications. Some parts are different SO READ CAREFULLY!

Anakin Skywalker hung onto the cliff by his mere fingertips. The heat from the lava pit below stung his eyes and burned his throat. He gazed up at a sneering Obi-Wan Kenobi.

"Not so brave now, are you, my young apprentice?" Obi-Wan spat the words with contempt. Anakin didn't answer; he couldn't answer. A lump rose in his throat as he wondered how such a thing could have happened. Obi-Wan had always been the perfect example of a perfect Jedi. He followed the Code, listened to everything the council had to say, and never did anything that was not becoming of a Jedi….until now.

There were so many things that had led up to this. In fact, Anakin could almost trace it back to an event that had occurred just a few months earlier.

(AN – This part of the story is set after episode two. However, Padme and Anakin were never married.)

Approximately two months earlier

Obi-Wan and Anakin bowed simultaneously before the senator of Naboo, Padme Amidala Naberrie. They had come to the planet of Naboo to speak to the Senator about a new development. "It's wonderful to see you both again so soon!" Padme said with a large smile. She nodded to Obi-Wan and to Anakin in turn. Her eyes locked with Anakin's for a brief moment.

"From the moment I met you, all those years ago, a day hasn't gone by when I haven't thought of you," Anakin said softly. "Now that I'm with you again, I'm in agony. The closer I get to you, the worse it gets. The thought of not being with you makes my stomach turn over – my mouth goes dry. I feel dizzy. I can't breathe. I'm haunted by the kiss you should never have given me. My heart is beating, hoping that kiss will not become a scar. You are in my very soul, tormenting me. What can I do? I will do anything you ask." He paused for a moment and Padme did not answer. "If you are suffering as much as I am," He continued. "Please tell me."

Padme shook her head. "I…I can't. We can't. It's just not possible."

"Anything's possible," Anakin pleaded. "Padme, please listen-"

Padme interrupted him angrily. "You listen! We live in a real world. Come back to it! You're studying to be a Jedi Knight. I'm a Senator." If you follow your thoughts through to conclusion, they will take us to a place that we cannot go – regardless of the way we feel about each other."

"Then you do feel something!" he exclaimed.

Padme sighed. Was he even listening? Was he thinking clearly? "Jedi aren't allowed to marry. You'd be expelled from the Order. I will not let you give up your future for me. And I…I have duties. I cannot give them up either."

Anakin was silent for a long time and Padme began to wonder if he was going to say anything to her. "You're right." He finally said with a sigh. "As much as I hate to admit it, you're right. I'm sorry for thinking that it should be any other way – that we could live a lie without any consequences." He smiled sadly. "It's nice to dream though."

Padme couldn't help but to reach over and hug him tightly. The embrace lasted several moments. Padme never wanted to leave his arms. Another dream that could never come true. She didn't want Anakin to see the tears that threatened to spill over her cheeks, so she pulled away, said goodnight, and retreated to her room.

Ever since then, their relationship had been strictly professional…well, except for the time that they kissed before entering the Geonosian arena in which they thought their lives would be lost. But that was an exception.

Padme snapped out of her daydream as she realized that Obi-Wan had said something.

Obi-Wan smiled and repeated what he had said. "It is too bad that we have to meet under such grave circumstances. Master Yoda informed us that there has been yet another assassination attempt on your life."

She nodded. "Yes, Chancellor Palpatine suggested that I take refuge on a different planet until the threats subside and asked that I take a few Jedi bodyguards."

"The threats are that dangerous?" Anakin asked with concern in his eyes. It was then that Padme noticed that he no longer had a Padawan braid. 'He must have been promoted to a Jedi Knight!' She thought to herself.

"Mesa thinken the threats are muy muy big!" Jar-Jar Binks broke into her thoughts. "It's as ifen shesa the mostest wanted person on the whole whole wide planeten! Shesa gots a muy muy big bounty on hersa."

Obi-Wan took a deep breath. "I think we should leave Naboo immediately. Did the Supreme Chancellor have a certain planet in mind?"

Padme nodded again. "The planet of Alderaan."

"Then the Planet of Alderaan it is."

AN: I know this is short, but I didn't really have time to write more. I'll probably try to update once a week but because of school, but I might not be able to.

Let me know what you think! ALSO, I need a Sith name for Obi-Wan. Hehehe. Darth somebody. My dad suggested Darth Bearded One. HAHA! Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
