PATH OF THE CHOSEN.
Anakin was taken by Darth Maul while he was on Tatooine (Qui-gon and Obi-wan also killed Darth Maul together so Qui-gon is alive in this story.) When he hears about the bounty hunter sent to kill Padme, Anakin escapes determined to save her.
PROLOGUE.
"Anakin, drop!"
Anakin froze, instead of instantly dropping to the ground, he turned to look behind him first_
The speeder hit him as he started to drop, Qui-gon's eyes widened as the little boy fell to the ground; then he was fighting for his life.

Obi-wan stepped out onto the ramp to see if Qui-gon was cmoing back, he froze as he saw his Master fighting, dashing back into the ship, he headed to the cockpit. "Qui-Gon is in trouble, take off!"
The pilot took off, and Obi-wan pointed to where Qui-gon was fighting. "Over there! Fly low!"

Qui-gon continued the fierce battle, Leaping over his opponent in an incredible display of acrobatics, before he heard the ship fly over them a few feet off the ground. Qui-gon didn't hesitate, leaping onto the ramp; as the ship began to fly away, he looked back for Anakin.
The creature stood over the boy, then he stooped and picked him up; closing his eyes, Qui-gon silently cursed.
Obi-wan rushed into the hallway to find Qui-gon collapsed on the floor opposite the entry, breathing
hard, wet with sweat and covered in dirt.
"Are you all right?"
Qui-gon nodded, "I think so."
Obi-wan knelt beside his Master, "What was it?"
Qui-gon shook his head, "I don't know... but he was well trained in the Jedi arts. My
guess is he was after the Queen..."

One day Later
Anakin sat on the floor of the small cell and cried, in his whole life, he had never been so afraid; the black and red creature had taken him onto his sinister looking ship, and thrown him to the floor; then he had contacted the creature, the man in the black hood had been very interested in him.
Anakin had been too terrified to say anything, the man had said that the Force was strong with him, and that he would make a poweful Sith Lord.
After the hologram of the man had disappeared, Anakin had been grabbed and thrown into the cell.
Shivering, Anakin sniffed and closed his eyes; he had no idea what a 'Sith Lord' was, but he did know he wanted nothing to do with it.
