This is the sequal to my story Love Me. Twenty years have gone by and Ahsoka and Luke are now living in their own hut on Tatooine.
Luke's POV
I just came back from town. I had to pick up a few things for my mom. She's all I've known in my life. I don't know who my father is. Everytime I mention him, she doesn't want to talk about it. I really want to know what happened to him. I walked in and saw her cleaning up.
"Hey, Mom. I'm back."
"Hey, Luke. Did you get what I needed?"
"Yes, ma'am. Mom, can I ask you something?"
"Sure. What is it?"
"I want to know about my father." She looked up at me in surprise.
"Luke, we've talked about this."
"No, we haven't. I know you don't want to talk about him, but I want to know who he is. What happened to him. Please, Mom. I've gone my whole life without a single word about him."
"Luke, I can't talk about him." She sat on the couch. I kneeled in front of her and tried to get her to look in my eyes. "I can't."
"Mom, I know it's difficult for you, but I need to know."
"Luke, why are you asking this? Where did this come from today?"
"It's just that... you always say that you don't want to talk about my dad, but you never say why. You never want to talk about him. You're acting like he never even exsisted."
"Luke, you can't even imagine... the pain I'm in just when he's mentioned."
"Why is it so painful? What did he do?"
"It's not what he did. It's what he became. You wouldn't understand."
"You don't know that, Mom. I want to know about him more. All I know is that he was human. Please." She looked in my eyes and sighed.
"If you want to know so bad, I'll tell you. I think it's about time you knew the whole story. Your father was a great man. He was a Jedi Knight." What?
"Dad was a Jedi?"
"We both were. I was his Padawan during the Clone Wars. He was brave, strong, handsome, and smart, but he was always hard-headed and impulsive. I guess that's where you get it from." I chuckled at her.
"Hey." She giggled.
"Your father fought for the ones he loved and for what he knew or thought was right. He followed his own rules and broke everyone elses. When it came to the people he loved, he didn't care about rules at all. He did what he could to keep them safe."
"Including you."
"Yes. When he found out I was pregnant with you, he was more happy than I've ever seen him. He was happy you were coming. He didn't care about the consequences at the time, especially the fact that I was only sixteen. Jedi weren't allowed to have children, but he protected both of us."
"What happened to him?"
"It was at the end of the war. The Dark Lord, or now he's the emperor, had Darth Vader kill him."
"Dad was killed by Darth Vader?"
"Yes. Your father died to protect me. To protect us. After that, I vowed that I would never let that same fate be yours."
"Mom, you don't have to worry about me. That won't happen." She softly stroked my cheek.
"You're so sure of yourself. You're just like your father."
"My fate will never be the same as his."
"I know it won't."
"So, how come you never trained me as a Jedi?"
"One, I wanted you to have a normal life and two, I didn't want to risk it. Being a Jedi is dangerous nowadays and if you get caught..."
"I won't get caught. You know I'm steathy."
"Luke, just because you can sneak in everynight without waking me doesn't mean you're steathy." I was shocked.
"How did you..."
"Just because I'm not a Jedi anymore doesn't mean I can't use the Force anymore." She got up and went into the kitchen. I followed her.
"Mom, can I use the Force too?"
"Well, your father and I are Force sensitive. I suppose you are too."
"How does it work?"
"It's not something you can just learn in a day, Luke. Using the Force takes time and patience. You're about as patient as a Tusken Raider." She really underestimates me.
"Mom, I am not that impatient."
"Key word is 'that.' You're still impatient and it can take years for you to use the Force if you don't master patience. That's the most important part."
"Patience. Got it. So, how long did it take you to use the Force?"
"Hmm. About a year, I guess. I was four when I learned how to use the Force in every way."
"How many ways are there?"
"Well, with the Force, you can read people's minds, move things around, control people's minds..."
"You can control people's minds?"
"It only works on the weak minded like the clones and Jawas."
"Speaking of Jawas, they're here now. I wanted to get an astro droid."
"Astro droid? For what?"
"Just for the heck of it. Also, I'm going to get you a protocal droid to help you around the house."
"That's sweet of you Luke, but I don't need one."
"I know. I want to get you one. You need someone to help you while I'm out all day. You deserve a break every now and again." I went outside to the Jawas.
Ahsoka's POV
Oh, Luke. I never know what I'm going to do with him. He's too much like his father, and that's what I'm afraid of. He's far too much like Anakin and I don't want him to end up like him. I didn't completely lie to Luke about his death. Darth Vader did kill Anakin, but not in that way. Darth Vader took over Anakin's body and soul. Anakin Skywalker was dead. Twenty years ago when Anakin Skywalker died, Darth Vader was born. I changed my name to Ahsoka Skywalker so Luke could have his father's name. It just felt right. I feel that one day, Anakin will be reborn. Anakin is still in Darth Vader somewhere, I know it. Anakin never truly died. He was the Chosen One and he still is. I know one day, Anakin will return and kill Darth Vader and the emperor. I just hope I get to see that day. I heard the door open. I turned and saw Carmen, Obi-Wan's daugther. She's grown so much over the years. She's now twenty-three years old, she had long blonde hair, and the same sparkling blue eyes.
"Hi, Carmen."
"Hey, Ahsoka." She hugged me and I hugged her back. "How are you?"
"I'm great. And you."
"Better than ever." We went to the living room and sat on the couch.
"So, what brings you by?"
"Just came to see you."
"And Luke?"
"Yes. Luke too."
"Don't hide it, Carmen. I know you like Luke."
"Well, yeah. He's a great friend."
"You like him more than a friend. I can feel it."
"No fair with the Force thing." I giggled at her.
"Carmen, I know you have a crush on my son. He may be younger than you, but you still like him."
"Maybe. Anyway, I was wondering if you could help me with something."
"Sure. What is it?"
"I heard about this rebellion against the empire on Yavin and I'm trying to get my dad to let me go. You wanna back me up on this?"
"A rebellion? Carmen, I don't know. It sounds dangerous."
"I know, but it could end the empire once and for all. This rebellion can overthrow Vader and the emperor. We'll be free from them. Come on, Ahsoka. You were there when the Jedi were killed and they took over."
"Carmen, I can't agree to this. You're like my daugther and I worry for you. I don't think you should join this rebellion."
"Ahsoka..."
"Look, I'm not your mother, so I can't tell you no. But I don't think your father will let you go."
"I know he won't. That's why I need you to back me up on this. I can take care of myself. You know I can. Just help me with this."
"I don't want you to go."
"Ahsoka, you've known me since I was a little girl. You practically raised me. You even gave me lessons behind my dad's back because you knew that one day I would need them. I can do this. Please." I knew she was right. I looked at her and sighed.
"Alright. I'll see what I can do." She smiled and hugged me.
"Thanks, Soka." I hugged her back.
"You're welcome, but you do know that there's no guarantee I can get him to agree."
"Yeah, he's a tough nut to crack, but as long as you have my back on this."
"I always have your back." Luke came. "Luke, did you find any good droids?"
"Yeah. I got the last two that actually work." A gold protocal droid and a little blue astro droid came in behind him. They looked somewhat familiar. The gold droid spoke.
"Hello, Mistress. I am C-3P0, human relations and this is R2-D2." The little droid beeped. I smiled as I finally remembered. And I saw that R2 remembered me. I stood up and walked over to him.
"R2, it's been a long time since I've seen you." He beeped excitedly. "I see you're still getting yourself in trouble. Captured by Jawas?"
"Yes, Mistress. R2 is always getting himself into trouble."
"And you've always followed him, 3P0."
"Excuse my asking, but how do you know us?" Luke wondered the same thing.
"Yeah, Mom. How do you know these droids?" I turned to him.
"R2 here was your father's astromech droid during the war. And 3P0 here was a droid that he built himself as a kid. These two droids were very important to him."
"Mistress, I am afraid I don't recall anything of which you speak." R2 started beeping.
"That explains it." I could tell Luke was confused.
"What did he say?"
"3P0 had his memory erased after the war. He doesn't remember a thing." R2 beeped a few times, then showed a hologram of a young human woman.
"Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope." It repeated a few times.
"There much be a glitch. Let's see." I kneeled down and tried to find what was wrong. I found the shock bolt on him and removed it. "That should do it. Try it again."
He played the message again.
"Hello, Obi-Wan Kenobi. I am Princess Leia Organa of Alderran. I know that you fought in the Clone Wars with my father. There is vital information that I have put into this astromech droid. I know you can help me and the rebellion by getting this to Yavin. Help me, Obi-wan Kenobi. You're my only hope." Leia. My daugther Leia. She's well and in trouble. Something must have happened for her to try and contact Obi-Wan. Carmen came up to me.
"Ahsoka?"
"Looks like we might be going to Yavin. Come on. We have to show this to your father."
