Interesting times:

So Anakin was wandering the hallways when padme went up to him saying his name. "Hi padme" Anakin said.

Padme then said, "I have to talk to you about something." as she took him to her room and shut the door. "Anakin," she whispered, "something wonderful has happened. I'm pregnant".

"Why that's... Wonderful padme." he replied mostly smiling but with a hint of worry.

"What are we going to do?"

"Don't worry, obi wan won't find out, after the war is over, we can run away and start a family in naboo. I'll leave the Jedi order."

"But you devoted so much to becoming a Jedi. Are you just gonna quit?"

"How else are we supposed to deal with this? We can't live in a secret relationship anymore. Not when we have a kid coming our way".

"I don't know what do do anymore Anakin. I mean we weren't thinking things through when we decided to get married after seeing each other for only 3 days.".

"But I met you 20 years prior."

"Yeah but there wasn't anything going on between us. Plus, we never saw each other for 10 years".

"But we were meant for each other." said Anakin flirting, "I guess being a stalker really pays off after all".

"I don't know how I fell in love with you, but some how I did. By the way, I'm carrying twins".

"soo, two boys, two girls, or one of each"

"One of each"

"Have you thought up any names for these darlings?"

"well, for the girl, I was definitely thinking 'Leia' but for the son, I can't decide between Luke or Ben".

"I think Leia's is a great name for a girl," Anakin replied, "but if I had to choose between Ben and Luke, I'd piiick...".

Right before he could finish a doorbell rang; it was Bail Organa. "Oh um, I was sent to inform you that dinner is ready." he said. "Why that's wonderful" said Padme. "You're invited too," said Organa, "this is an event for Jedi and Alderaanian nobles". And so they had a feast; they had a few conversations regarding the hidden empire, Alderaan, and the future of the republic.

Meanwhile, the empire was retaking planets which they once ruled such as Dromund Kaas, Korriban, and Ziost (even though it was lifeless). Darth Malgus moved into coruscant as the sith order and imperial military moved their operations room to the Jedi temple. They knew that the republic wouldn't bomb the temple from the sky because of its importance. The republic military headquarters was destroyed and as soon as Malgus was done making the broadcast (or when Anakin turned it off rather), the entire senate rotunda (the dome shaped building near the senate) was opened to the republic free of charge. People on the tours found out that many senators did very shady things and the sith artifacts in the cancellor's office as tour guides used this as an opportunity to spout imperial propoganda. Not all republic activity on coruscant ceased as a few Secret Intelligence Service (republic CIA) agents stuck behind. It was a risky business operating in business territory as getting caught would result in a public execution. It was also difficult to transmit information to the republic since the coruscant I part of the holiness was now controlled by the empire.

Back on coruscant, it was nighttime in Aldera and everyone went to sleep in preparation for a long day of planning ahead for them.
