Now, lets see what happens...


4. Unexpected reunion

"You know each other?" Luke asks in confusion. Ahsoka seems to have gotten over the worst part of the shock and says: "We know each other TO WELL." Her voice is filled with anger and rage, but also sadness. She looks so different, and yet I see so much of the little girl I knew in her. The little girl I trained years ago.

"Remember, this weapon is your life. Never loss it." Ahsoka sighs as I tell her how important the responsible for her lightsaber is. Again. I laugh a little, because I remind myself of Obi-wan. "Do you know how many times I lost my lightsaber when I was a Padawan?"

"You did?"

"Trust me. I lost more in a year than you will spend in a lifetime. One of them was cut into two pieces on Geonosis."

"Really?"

She never lost her lightsabers. In her belt hangs the same two weapons I remember so clearly. They had my back many times. "Ahsoka I…" I don't finish my sentence.

"Don't you dare talk to me, Vader!" she yells back.

"His name is Anakin and can I please get an explanation?" Luke decides to interrupt.

Padmé tells our children to come with her, and the three of them goes a couple of meters away. "When I was a senator, Ahsoka was a Padawan," she whispers to them and takes a deep breath. "And Anakin was her Master."

"He was more!" Ahsoka replies after overhearing the silent conversation. "He was my brother!"

The guilt inside me builds up all over again. "And I'm glad he's dead," she adds. Auch. That hurt. More than I thought it would.

No. She can't just walk away like that. Not after all we've been through. I must stop her. "I understand. More than you realize, I understand wanting to walk away from the order." The truth in my words surprises me. I've never told anyone that I would like to leave the order, except Padmé. But Ahsoka's words surprises me even more.

"I know."

She knows. Knows what? About my wife? I turn around to ask her, but she's already walking away. From the order, her life, her friends. Me. As she goes down the stairs, I tighten my grip around her Padawan braid. I've always known that I one day would have to let her go as my Padawan. Not like this of course. But still, it hurts more than I thought it would.

"I am too." I reply. "I've done terrible things as Darth Vader but I regret it so much."

Ahsoka looks like she's about to explode. "Oh, so you think that just by regretting it that makes everything alright? Brings back all the Jedi? If you believe that you're a bigger idiot than I thought. And trust me, I had high thoughts."

"Snips, if you would just…"

"No! I won't listen to you anymore! And don't you ever call me that again!" She runs towards me. Even though she must be around 40 now, she's still as fast as I remember. When she's right in front of me, she kicks me in me stomach. Of course, her food goes directly through me. Then, she sinks to her knees and her outgrown lekku touches the ground. "How?" Her voice is sobering. "How could you do it? When I heard what happened on Mustafar, I was terrified. I know you had temper but this? You destroyed the entire Jedi order."

"It's not something I'm proud of."

"It's not something you're proud of? How can you say that? You should fall to your knees and beg me for forgiveness!"

I should. So I do it. I go down, sit on my knees and bow my head. That surprises her. "Ahsoka Tano, I beg for your forgiveness." Please Ahsoka, please. In a long time, no one says anything. I'm starting to get nervous. Maybe she won't forgive me. I would understand why.

"I forgive you, Anakin Skywalker."

I look up and she's smiling at me. "I've missed you Skyguy," she says. I smile back and say: "I've missed you too Snips." We stand and my family's heading in your direction. "I'm curious," Leia says. "What happened on Mustafar?" Padmé and Ahsoka won't tell her, I can see that on their faces. Well, that leaves it to me. "Kids, never play with fire."


Two hours later, and the story is done. Now Luke and Leia finally knows how I became that monster I was. Now it's my turn to hear a story. "Ahsoka where did you go after you left the order?" I ask. Ahsoka sighs and starts her story that begins right after she said goodbye to me. "I stayed on Coruscant for three weeks. Then I headed back to Shili. When I heard about you and order 66, I hided. Maybe I wasn't a Jedi anymore, but I still carried my lightsabers so I thought the stormtroopers would give a shit about who I was. Many years later, I heard about a brave young man who blew up the Death star." She looks at my son and smiles. "Luke Skywalker. First I thought it was a coincidence but the force told me it wasn't. I knew you and Padmé where together but I didn't knew you had a kid."

"When exactly did you find out about me and Padmé?" I ask.

"Please Anakin. Every time I was with her, you asked how she was doing. Every time she was in danger, you almost freaked out. Every time you had an excuse to see her, you did. And it was the exact same with Padmé. It was obvious to everyone who knew you."

"Damn it." Padmé says. "I thought we were so good at hiding it."

We all laugh and Snips continues her story. "I started to help the rebellion more. One day I saw Luke, who I mistaken thought was my old Master. I also saw a beautiful girl and could have sworn it was Padmé. But I knew you were dead, so I figured out you must have had twins." She takes a little break before continuing. "Three days ago I was at a party on Endor. To celebrate the fall of the empire. Or, I just stood in a corner some minutes and then I went to Mos eisly, where Luke found me next morning. I've been here since," she ends her story.


While Padmé says goodbye to Luke, Leia and Han, who showed up a little while ago, I say goodbye to Ahsoka. Tears are floating down her cheeks. "I almost forgot you're dead," she says. "You're dead."

"Hey," I say. "Remember all the good times we had?"

"Just you, me and a bunch of battledroids."

"Exactly. When Luke has started the new order, I would like you to pass on what you have learned. To Leia. If you will."

"That would be an honor." A big smile covers her face. "See you soon, Skyguy."

"Of course, Snips." Then Padmé takes her arms around me and I teleport us back to the palace.


I will upload a new chapter as soon as I can. Please leave a review!
