Chapter 10
On the ship, the three passengers were all silent. Janira refused to speak Luke, Luke refused to speak to Janira, and although Anakin had much to say, no one would listen to him. Anakin spent much of his time pacing around a small compartment in the back of the ship, pondering what to do in order for his son and his apprentice to get along again. Just then, a terrible thought entered his mind.
"We forgot to get Leia," he whispered at first. Then he went out into the room that Luke was sitting in and yelled it. "We forgot Leia!"
Luke only glanced up at the worried Anakin, but didn't take much heed to what he had said. At that moment, Janira came through the cockpit door with her mouth open, looking around the room at the uncaring Luke and the pacing Anakin.
"How could you forget to go save Leia, Luke!" Janira said.
Still not looking up, Luke replied, "I didn't forget her. I just couldn't get her. She was with Lord Larveus, and I couldn't take him on my own. Instead I just went to show you two how to get out of there."
"Well we have to go back for her," Anakin ordered.
Luke shook his head. "No, we can't. We have to regroup ourselves."
"I am not leaving my daughter over there!" yelled Anakin.
"I agree with Luke," added Janira quietly. "We cannot go barging in there without some sort of plan. And besides, we're going to Tattooine."
This was the first time that Janira had told the boys where they were going; she had wanted it to be a surprise. But the reaction she got was not the one that she had wanted. She had hoped that they would be happy to return to their homes, perhaps visit some old friends, but instead they were not the slightest bit happy.
"What!" Both of them yelled.
"I hate that place!" Luke said.
"I am not going back there," Anakin said with a glare in his eyes.
Janira was dumbfounded. "But, it's your home planet. How can you hate it? You've been there before with me, Luke, why will you not go there now?"
Standing up Luke said, "I did not say that I would not go there." Then leaving the room he added, "You assume too much…"
Janira was about to pursue Luke, to retaliate to his comment, but Anakin held her back. Mainly he did this to protect his son, but also because he wanted to ask her why they were going to Tattooine of all places.
"Sit down, Janira," he said.
Reluctantly she went over to a bench and sat down, folding her arms.
"What is it with you two? You seem to always be bickering."
"I don't know what his problem is. He is always pointing out everything that I do wrong and all my flaws. I just get sick of it, that's all."
Anakin shook his head, thinking that she was so much like himself at that age. He didn't know if that was a good thing or not. Probably not, for he sadly did not turn out to be a glroious Jedi Knight as he had always hoped he would. He never accomplished his life long dream, but he pushed these negative thoughts out of mind, and went back to the moment at hand.
"All Masters do that, Janira. Obi-wan did it to me all the time. But when someone points out to you what you can do better, that is the only way you can grow."
"You sound like a politician," said Janira while looking at Anakin for the first time since she had sat down.'
He just laughed. "Well that's because I learned that from a Politician!"
"I didn't know you could learn from a Politician," said Janira with a smile on her face. "From what I hear, they are not to be trusted."
Anakin nodded. "Yes, some of them are liars, but not this one. She was wise and honest. The best woman I've ever met," he finished softly.
"Hmm, sounds like you had a crush on this Politician. Padme, was her name?"
"Oh, it was more than just a crush. She was my wife, so it would have been foolish if I did not love her." He paused. "And yes, her name was Padme."
"I thought back in the old days, a Jedi was not allowed to love?"
"No, they weren't."
"Did you ever get in trouble for loving?" asked Janira, whose interest was now being peaked.
"Oh no, the council never knew about us. We kept it a secret from everyone, even my Master. If the council ever did find out, then they would have expelled me."
Janira pondered over this for a second. "Do you think," she said slowly, watching her words carefully, "that maybe the council did get mad and banished you from being Jedi, thus causing you to turn to the dark side?"
He shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe. But the last thing that I do remember is being sent on a mission to rescue the Chancellor form General Grievous. My Master and I were running through the halls. After that, everything is blank."
"Perhaps one day, we will find out. I know that Master Luke has been visited by Obi-wan and Yoda. Maybe they will tell us sometime, revealing the great mystery behind Anakin Skywalker."
LUKES COMPARTMENT
Luke was pacing relentlessly around his small room. Thinking over everything that had happened to him in the past few days. Everything had happened so fast, that he didn't know what to think of it all. First, his apprentice had brought back his father from the dead, and then Leia was kidnapped. After that, Janira had attacked him and know he was headed for Tattooine, where there were many memories that he wished not to relive.
As he was thinking over these things, he felt a presence enter the room. One that was very soothing to him, but one that he had never experienced before. Quickly turning around, he saw a glowing blue figure of a woman.
Hesitantly he asked, "Who are you?"
The woman smiled. "Your mother."
A/N: Hahaha! Cliffhanger! Review adn I shall update quickly!
Now, I will answer questions from reviewers:
Randomidiot: Thank you for your reviews! Now to answer your questions: Janira attacked Luke because he said that she has Hissy fits, thus causing her to get angry. She gets extreme when she gets angry. Anakin did not say anything because, yes he is in shock from things that he has learned. Janira can "condemn" Luke, because Anakin is his father. She and Anakin do have a little bond, because she brought him back from theh dead, causing them to have a mild force bond. Also, Janira did try to tell anakin that he wasn't a horrible person, but he wouldn't listen. The age of Luke is about 26-27 about. Lord Larveus is the new Sith trying to take over the galaxy. And I would appreciate it if you didn't call his name 'crappy.' It was the first thing that popped into my head, so I made it Larveus. he is a bad guy, so his name doesn't have to be all wonderful. Well, hope that answered your questions. If anybody else has any more, don't be afraid to ask! I will gladly answer!
