The last goodbye

You were alive, I could feel you alive!... Even when I was fighting Obi Wan, I could feel you alive!... Even when I was burning in the lava, I felt you alive.

"It seems that, in your anger you... killed her"

"Shut up!" I yell, but I can't stop Lord Sidious's voice talking in my head.

Padme, I only wanted to save you! I was horrified by seeing you in my nightmares, dying whille you were giving birth to our child... A child that I killed when I did that to you.

I was scared to death by watching you dying every night; but my fear was bigger each morning when I woke up by your side, not knowing how to save you from that fate. I couldn't do anything for my mother, but I swore I wasn't gonna let it happen to you.

That's why I saved Palpatine and Killed Master Windu!

That's why I accepted him as my master!

That's why I killed every padawan and Jedi!

Everything was worthy if I could save you. How ironic! Don't you think? I killed to save you, and I ended up killing you.

Why? Why did I murder you?!

No, it wasn't me!... Obi Wan! It's all his fault! He got inside your ship and used you to get me! He made me to kill you by using the force! It's all his fault!

Forgive me, Padme... The walls of your mausoleum are shaking because of me, I was about to punch your coffin, but I could stop my fist before causing a damage on it.

Please forgive me for not saving you, for not protecting you, and for putting you in this place. At least, now you rest in your loved Naboo.

My soul stays with you. Anakin doesn't exist anymore, because he died the same day you left this world.

Now that I walk across the door, and I look at your coffin once more, right now, I've fully become Darth Vader.

The End.


Hi! Thanks a lot for reading this fanfic, the original one I wrote is in spanish which is my first language, but since one of my best friends is American and he loves Star Wars, well, I decided to translate it and I hope I did it decently.

I dedicate this fanfiction to my dear Calaphor, thanks a lot, my friend!
