Angel In Disguise

" Come on girl! Move it. Lord Sidious' apprentice will be here any moment. Get up!" Viceroy commanded. A young woman of twenty with brown hair and blue eyes glared up at him. She stood up to her full height of five feet and three inches.

" Listen to me Viceroy. You may have me as a prisoner but that doesn't mean you can boss me around when someone bigger than you is coming. Words can't even describe how mad I am at you for taking me away from my family on Naboo. I swear you will get what's coming for you one of these days!" she yelled. Viceroy slapped her across the face.

" Guard, take her and bind her to the chair." The droid nodded and took her away.

" Sasha, you know better then to talk back to Viceroy," the droid scolded. Sasha sighed.

" TC 151, When have I ever been quiet?" she retorted. TC 151 let out a robotic chuckle and binded her to the chair. Sasha sighed again. As the droid walked away Sasha saw someone coming down the ramp. She couldn't see their face because a hood was blocking it.

" Lord Vader, welcome," Viceroy groveled. Vader moved his hand to each door and shut them.

Sasha saw him take out a lightsaber and then he killed Viceroy. Sasha screamed but it was blocked out by all the noise of the droids and Separatists running away. Sasha struggled with her bonds to get away. She knew that Lord Vader wouldn't care who she was and would kill her right away. TC 151 ran over to her and sliced her bonds. She got up and followed the droid. Vader intercepted them and sliced through TC 151.

Sasha screamed as the droid fell in front of her. Her eyes met with Vader's. She looked into them and saw they were tinted with yellow. He took her by the arm and dragged her away. She turned around as he was dragging her and saw that he had killed every single person and droid. Vader continued to drag her till they were outside on the deck. Fire surrounded them as they walked. Vader stopped and turned around.

" What is your name?" his voice was hard.

" Sasha Talin," she said boldly. His eyes narrowed.

" Why are you here, Sasha Talin?"

" I was a prisoner to Viceroy. He took me off my planet Naboo." His eyes softened.

" Naboo? My wife is from Naboo." He took of his hood and Sasha studied his features. He was handsome. His hair was long and slightly curly. Her eyes traveled to his and she saw a tear run down his face. His eyes narrowed again and the moment of weakness he had shown was gone.

" Leave me now. Go and get off this planet. GO!" Sasha nodded and ran away. She had no plans of leaving until she knew what he was up to. She quickly hid behind a pillar.

Sasha saw him run out as a ship landed and a young woman ran out to him. They hugged. Sasha watched as Vader's face became angrier and the woman's more distraught. She saw another man come out of the ship and Vader choke the woman. She dropped to the ground and the two men started dueling with lightsabers. They dueled right past her and into the building. Sasha quickly ran to the woman. She checked her pulse and saw that she was still alive. She ran into the ship and saw a gold droid.

" Help! There is a young woman outside. You have to carry her inside!" she cried out.

" Bless my circuits. That must be my mistress Padma." She followed him as he went down the ramp. He picked her up and ran back up the ramp. Sasha turned and saw the glow of two lightsabers on the edge of the lava river. Vader was standing on a small ship and the other man on the edge of the river bed. Vader flipped and fell as the man cut his legs off. Sasha rushed down and hid behind a fallen rock.

" I hate you!" Vader screamed. The man took one last look at Vader then walked away. Vader was on fire and screaming. Sasha looked away. When she finally looked she saw Vader trying to grab onto the ground and pull himself up. He failed to pull himself up and fainted. She ran over to him and checked his pulse. He was still living. She pulled him up. He groaned as she dragged him across the ground.

Sasha managed to pull him to a ship and set him on a bed. She started the ship and took off. She set coordinates for Naboo and went into hyperspace. When the ship was all set she got up and went to get medical supplies.

As she got into the room she saw Vader screaming in pain. Sasha ran over to him and saw that he was slowly dieing. She quickly got an oxygen mask and put it over his face. He opened his eyes and saw her standing over him.

" Where is Padma? Where is my wife?" he gasped out. Sasha winced and looked down at him tearfully.

" She is safe."

Sasha quickly put some bacta gel on a cloth and started to clean his burns. Vader cried out in pain.

" Shhhh. It's ok. I know it hurts but I have to clean you up," Sasha tried to coax. Vader continued to slip in and out of consciousness. Finally she had cleaned all the burns. She only hoped the scars would go away. She knew that as soon as they landed she would need to get medical attention for Vader. Sasha went back to the control room. Her thoughts drifted to the young woman Vader had spoken of. She could only hope that she would live.

Polis Massa

Padma cried as she went into labor. Her thoughts drifted to Anakin and she cried more. What could she have done to save him? As she gave birth to twins she continued to cry. Obiwan held her hand.

" Stay with me, Padma. You can' t die."

Padma's thoughts drifted to the young woman she had seen on Mustafar. She remembered she had helped C- 3PO bring her onto the ship. With those thoughts Padma drifted off into a troubled sleep.
