Padme felt her heart shattering at the bomb Obi-Wan had just dropped on her. Anakin, her husband and the love of her life had fallen to the dark side of the force and was now a sith lord.
"Obi-Wan, are you sure about this?" Padme asked.
"I'm positive Padme and trust me I wish I wasn't." Obi-Wan said.
"I have to find him." Padme said.
"No." Obi-Wan said, grabbing Padme's hand to prevent her from leaving.
"Obi-Wan, if he's that far gone, I'm the only who can bring him back." Padme said.
"Maybe, maybe not, but that is a risk I am not willing to take, especially in your current condition. What you need to do is get as far away from Coruscant as possible. Go to the Jedi colony in Polis Massa. You'll be safe there." Obi-Wan said.
"Obi-Wan, I can't just run while Anakin does unspeakable acts of horror." Padme said.
"Padme, your child will already have to grow up without their father. Do you really want to risk them losing their mother to?" Obi-Wan said.
Padme took a deep breath and considered what Obi-Wan had just said. While she wanted her husband back more than anything else in the galaxy, she also had to consider her child. She hated the fact that her son or daughter would have to grow up without their father, she didn't want to deprive them of their mother as well.
"Okay, I'll make preparations to leave at once. Just promise me you'll try and bring Ani back to the light." Padme said.
"Whatever to do you mean?" Obi-Wan asked, trying to look confused.
"Don't try that on me Obi-Wan. Just because I can't go after Anakin doesn't mean you can't. That's where you're going isn't it?" Padme asked, knowing the Jedi master all too well.
"Yes, I am going to find Anakin, however, I do not know who I am going to find when I catch up with him." Obi-Wan said.
"Than maybe you should wait." Padme said.
"What do you mean?" Obi-Wan said.
"Wait until after the babies are born to go after Anakin. That way if he see's that his vision didn't come true, it might bring him back, before he can do too much damage." Padme said.
Obi-Wan nodded and said "Very well, but we must get you as far away from him as possible before he realizes that you are still on Coruscant."
Padme nodded and began to pack her things.
After Padme had successfully given birth to her and Anakin's twins, a boy, Luke, and a girl, Leia, Obi-Wan made sure to get holo footage of the birth and of Padme holding both of the twins in her arms happily, all 3 of them alive and well.
"You swear you'll show Anakin the footage when you find him?" Padme asked.
"Yes, for Padme, you are not the only one who cares greatly for Anakin. He was like a brother to me and I hope that I can make him that again." Obi-Wan said right as the door to Padme's medical quarters opened and Master Yoda entered the room.
"Master Yoda, I am grateful to see that you to survived the clone betrayal and received my message about where Padme and I were hiding out." Obi-Wan said.
"I obi-wan, as am. My heart to see that not only did some jedi survive the purge, it warms. Already begun to reproduce, but we have." Yoda said, looking at the children in Padme's arms.
"I'm afraid I don't understand?" Padme asked, trying to look confused.
Yoda chuckled and said "Of your marriage to young skywalker and have known of it for years, I know. His I assume, these children are."
"Wait, you knew and you didn't say anything? Why? Perhaps if the council had known about it, we could've." Obi-Wan began when Yoda interrupted him.
"While I understood Skywalker's actions, not believe the rest of the council and they would've motioned to expel him and would've caused more harm than good, I do. Obi-wan, for you see In the long run of things and place the welfare of others over personal beliefs, sometimes one must think." Yoda explained.
"So does that mean that if Anakin can be restored, he will be welcomed back into the ranks of the Jedi?" Obi-Wan asked.
"His wish, if that is. Lost to us forever, the ways of the old jedi are. Now,Rather than rebuilding the order the way it once was,From scratch and build a new one based on new beliefs to make the new order stronger than it's predecessor, now we shall start." Yoda said.
"Speaking of which, Obi-Wan, can you please begin your search for Anakin. I don't want Luke and Leia to grow up without their father any longer than they have to." Padme said.
"I shall prepare to leave immediately. However, Padme, you must be prepared for the prospect that I won't be able to save Anakin, though I will do my very best to save him." Obi-Wan said.
Padme nodded as she watched Obi-Wan begin to leave.
"Obi-wan, might I offer a bit of advice before you leave? Yoda asked.
"Of course Master Yoda." Obi-Wan said.
"Not start your search by going directly after skywalker, do. By finding the only other person who can help remind him of who he really is, begin." Yoda said.
"Who are you speaking of?" Obi-Wan asked.
"Skywalker's former apprentice, Ahsoka tano." Yoda said.
Obi-Wan nodded and then left the room.
