Disclaimer: Sadly I do not own Star Wars. :'(
A/N: Everything happened in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd movie except Mace Windu, Padme and Count Duko are still alive and Anakin is not evil. The Prologue starts after the part in the 3rd movie when Anakin tells Mace Windu that he thinks Palpatine. It explains what really happened.
Prologue
"Ani?"
Padme called. "Where is he? Maybe he's in the Chancellor's
office, they are friends," she thought as she started waling
towards his office. She was worried about him. He had been acting
very strange lately, and she wanted to know what was going on. Padme
opened the door and saw Anakin standing watching Mace Windu holding
his light saber, deflecting lightning coming from the Chancellor.
"What is going on here?"
"Padme! Help! Both of them
are deranged!" Palpatine shouted.
"Don't listen to
him! He's a Sith!" Windu told her. Palpatine scowled and
decided if Anakin didn't want to go to the dark side, he would
suffer. He moved one hand and shocked Windu unconscious, Palpatine
got up and ran towards the door. Anakin jumped in front of him.
"Not this time Sidious!" Anakin yelled. Palpatine smirked and sent lighting towards Padme. Anakin ran to her and caught her just before she hit the ground. Palpatine ran out the door.
"Padme!"
Everything
was a blur to Anakin after that. The next thing he remembered was
being at the hospital and Obi-Wan running to him.
"What
happened?" He asked, panting.
"Palpatine is the Sith
Lord, I tried to stop him and he shocked Padme," Anakin said
dully.
"Are you ok?"
"Yes."
"Is she
ok?"
"I don't know. I'm not allowed in her room."
He paced back and forth in front of her room.
"Master
Skywalker, Ms. Amidala wants to see you." A medi-droid said to
Anakin. He walked into the room.
"Ani…" she whispered.
"Padme. Don't worry everything is going to be alright."
"I'm so afraid."
"Listen to me. You and the baby must leave Coruscant. It's not safe for you here."
"But what about you? I won't leave without you."
"My place is here. Until we can destroy the Sith, you aren't safe here." He looked at her worried. "Promise me that you will go far away from here."
"Ani, I…" she started to protest, but Anakin cut her off.
"Promise me."
"I promise…"
"Maybe, one day our paths will cross again."
"Then I shall wait for that day to come."
"I love you," Ani whispered in Padme's ear.
"I love you, too," she whispered back. Silent tears rolled down her checks as Anakin walked out the door.
"How is she?" Obi-Wan questioned.
"She'll be fine," Anakin answered. He looked at her lovingly. Obi-Wan noticed this, but he didn't say anything.
"Go to a safer place, we must. Plan for the future," Yoda said while hobbling over to Obi- Wan and Anakin.
"But what about here?" Anakin protested.
"Master Yoda is right. We need a safer place to come up with a plan," Obi- Wan told Anakin.
"The perfect place, I have," Yoda said as they followed him out of the room.
Sadly Anakin did not get to be there for the birth of his only son and daughter, whom he would never see. But fate had other plans…
