A/N: First of all, this is just something I made for fun. I read spoilers on Wookiepedia (the Star Wars Wikipedia) to tell me the ending to the new Legacy of the Force novel, Sacrifice. Mara Jade didn't let her body become one with the force because she wanted to leave behind evidence that her nephew killed her and so her family could say goodbye to something. So basically, now she's a regular spirit with the other regular spirits.
Mara Jade woke up in the middle of some street in the middle of- actually, she had no idea where she was. She suddenly saw a speeder headed toward her, so she jumped out of the way onto the sidewalk. She looked at herself, and realized she was young again! She looked around to see a bunch of people just walking casually on the sidewalk. Where was she? Was this a dream? What happened? She just followed the crowd to something that might help her. Suddenly, a figure with a cloak tapped her on the shoulder.
"Mara Jade Skywalker?" it asked her.
"Hmm?" she mumbled in a confused tone.
"Report to this facility." The person instructed her as he handed her a card with an address on it.
"What for?" she asked, but when she looked up from the card he was gone! She figured this would help her out, so she just traveled to this place she needed to go to. She walked around until she found this never-ending neighborhood of tall buildings. Every building was unique, so no two looked alike. She finally found the one she was looking for. The paint job was pretty weird. The building was colored baby blue on one side, but blood red on the other. She saw a billboard near the door; she was perplexed on what it read though: NEW ARRIVAL- MARA JADE SKYWALKER
She walked in and asked the clerk where she needed to go. He instructed her to go to room #34 on level 3. She walked into the elevator and pressed the third button. When she got to that floor, room #34 was wide open. She walked in to see a just a plain room with two beds in it. She just walked around when all of a sudden she heard a voice from outside the door.
"New girl?! Since when do we have a new girl? Why do I have to bunk with her? Well, who is she anyway? What happened to her? Fine, fine, I'll talk to her myself." A woman said.
That woman who was talking walked in to find Mara Jade who just froze in confusion.
"So, you must be that new girl." The woman asked. She wore just a plain white gown. It was much unlike the combat suit Mara Jade was wearing.
"Uhhh, I…guess." Mara Jade stuttered.
"So, how did you get here?" the woman asked.
"I don't really know, I don't remember." Mara replied. The woman rolled her eyes and replied,
"Oh no, this going to be hard. Alright, what is the last thing you remember doing?"
Mara thought hard for a moment until something came to her, "Well, I was fighting my nephew, then all of a sudden, I saw my son, and then I felt an intense pain in my thigh, then I… ah, man. Am I …dead?"
"Bingo." The mysterious woman replied.
"Aw, crud! C'mon! That's completely cheap! I practically demolish him in that duel, and he kills me with a little poison dart? I can't believe it." Mara screamed as she stomped around the room.
"Hah, you think that's bad? The living realm thinks I died of a "broken heart" when my uterus clearly ruptured." The woman replied.
"Eww… that's a little too much information." Mara turned away in disgust.
"Sorry. What also stinks is that Luke and Leia hardly know who I am!" the woman complained.
"Wait; did you say Luke and Leia? Luke Skywalker and Leia Solo?" Mara questioned.
"Yup." The woman answered.
"How long have you known them?" Mara asked.
"Oh, let's just say their whole lives." The woman responded. Mara thought about who this woman could possibly be. This woman hadn't told Mara her name. Oh, and she forgot to tell the woman her own, too.
"I'm sorry, I've forgotten my manners. I'm Mara Jade Skywalker, Luke Skywalker's wife." She held out her hand. The woman reached out to shake Mara's hand as she introduced herself,
"Padme Amidala Skywalker, Luke Skywalker's mother."
