Hey everyone! Sorry this took so long to get this chapter up, I was writing it, and my writing was replaced as I was going copy it into my docs (it was highlighted and I hit paste instead of copy) and it all deleted. Well, here it finally is!

A Visitor

Time: One year later, 8 BTPM

Shmi was out working in the burning heat of Tatooine's twin suns, as her twin, dirty blonde haired, blue eyed one year olds played on a mat beside her. Everything was going pretty smoothly, until Shmi noticed what one of her twins was doing.

Analeia was sitting next to Anakin, and all of a sudden, the desert rocks around Analeia started to levitate, not by touching them with her hands. Her hand stroked the air as this lifted the rocks. Anakin watched his sister in amazement.

Shmi was in shock. "Analeia! What are you doing?! How is this happening?" She couldn't believe her eyes. How did Analeia have powers? And if she did, why didn't Anakin?

She saw other slaves start to stare, and among them, an out of place teenage boy stared at them, watching their every move. Shmi had never seen anyone like him before.

She picked up her twins and ran with them to a secluded area, somewhat close to their working spot. Shmi didn't want anyone to see what one of her younglings could do. She looked at her daughter's hands. Nothing out of the ordinary.

" 'Leia... how were you doing that?!", she asked her, using the nickname she gave her daughter. The baby just looked at her mother in a confused way.

A moment later, Shmi heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw Gardulla the Hutt with the strange teenage boy, slowly walking (and slithering) towards them. They stopped and talked. Shmi only heard the last few sentences of their conversation.

"...So, if you'd allow me, I would like to talk to your three slaves over here. Particularly the younglings", he said with a proper sounding accent.

"Fine. But make it quick, Jedi.", Gardulla said, going away in the other direction.

The teen walked over to Shmi and the twins, and removed the hood of his long, brown robes. His short, auburn hair and bluish grey eyes stood out to the three slaves. A small few strands of long hair was braided and draped over his left shoulder. He looked to be about 17 years old.

"Hello there... I saw you three out in the suns and noticed that you were slaves", he started to whisper, "My Master and I are here on a mission, and we are going to attempt to free some slaves. And maybe I'll be able to do even more for you three... They seem to be very powerful" Would you mind maybe telling me something about yourselves?

Shmi was nervous, but knew that since he was a Jedi, he could be trusted.

"I am Shmi Skywalker, and these are my twins, Anakin and Analeia. They're only one year old. They... have no father."

The teen's eyes widened at hearing the name "Skywalker" and the fact the younglings have no father. He knew he heard this name and story from the rumors flying around Coruscant.

"You're... A Skywalker? They were of miraculous birth?", he said in shock. He kneeled in front of the babies and looked at them more closely. They were incredibly powerful in the Force. Insanely.

Shmi nodded. "Yes, I just woke up pregnant one day with them, and I have no idea how it happened... I gave birth to them a little over a year ago, and I have taken care of them and loved them more than i thought would ever be possible. It has only been a few months since I noticed that Analeia had powers, do things with her mind and other things like that... I'm sure you saw all of that back at my work area...

The teen nodded at Shmi. He could tell she wanted to continue her story. He didn't want to interrupt. This was getting interesting.

"And, uh, I noticed that you were surprised at my surname... Are people talking about my story around the capital? Different travelers and smugglers came to this planet quite a few months ago just for visits, and my master, Gardulla, saw they were looking for some credits, and told them about my miraculous birth story. She told them our Skywalker name, to see if the story would go around, and to see if she could get some credits out of the people who wanted to come to prove it soon after."

The teen was surprised. So, the stories were true...

"Uh, yes, there have been rumors going around Coruscant... The Skywalker name is definitely going around like you said, and your miraculous birth story definitely matches with what people have claimed. However, the Jedi are surprisingly the only ones who don't seem to believe it. To be honest, I didn't really believe it until you just confirmed the story," he paused for a moment,as Shmi nodded. "Well", he continued, "as you can already tell, I'm not here to get credits for proving your story, I'm here to help free slaves. And, your younglings are tremendously powerful. I've never seen anyone like this. As I said before, I will do everything I can to help you three get freed. And, these powers they have, can absolutely be very useful. I'll explain more of that later. First, I'll need to go find your master and see what I can do about this. She's a crime lord. I'm sure she can be persuaded."

"Thank you so much, sir. You have no idea how much this means to me and the twins", Shmi said, smiling.

The teen also smiled and nodded, as he put the brown hood back over his head. "By the way, my name is Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi Padawan. Please don't discuss this mission I'm on to anyone. I trust you to keep this a secret until it is finished."

Shmi smiled and nodded once again, as he walked away.

Obi-Wan had to find Gardulla as well as his own master. How could he convince the Hutt crime lord to free her slaves? Would he have to bribe her with his allowance from the Order? Or would they have to smuggle them off Tatooine themselves?

And, how was he going to tell Qui-Gon about the twins' intense Force presence? Qui-Gon specifically told him NOT to recruit any younglings on this mission before they got there. They were only there to free slaves, not find any potential Jedi. Well, whatever he had to do, it was going to be tough. And, whether his master liked it or not, something would have to be done about those twins. They had to be trained in some way or another, whether the Council believed their story, or not. They are going to get way more powerful, and they have to be freed/ trained before it's too late.
