Ok some of you guys didn't understand about the Padmé part. I was going to have Padmé "live" in a premonition that Anakin and Luke had. But I won't have it after I got some hurtful reviews. One in particular from CherryBlossoms016 in which they stated that, they knew that I would snap. Let it be known that if I change the story line to make Padmé wake up now instead of later or (wake up at all), I will destroy the whole story.

Also I've decided to cut the story shorter than originally planned. I'm going to combine what was going to be 3 or 4 chapters into 1 or 2 chapters.

Anakin bowed his head in shame and said, "Leia I am so sorry."

Leia's eyes went wide with shock.

Then Anakin looked back up and said, "I will never bet you in a Sabacc game again."

Then he looked at Mayla and said, "Mayla you're free."

Mayla was shocked.

"I'm free? I'm actually free? Thank you Master Skywalker." Mayla said with tears (happy ones) in her eyes.

"You just got lucky Skywalker." Kel said.

"Oh sure. And it has nothing to do with the fact that I was Jr. Sabacc champion on Tatooine 3 years running." Anakin said in his cocky voice turning to face him. "Now when will the falcon be ready to go?"

"Tomorrow." Han said.

"Mayla. You're coming with us." Anakin said.

The next day –Landing platform the falcon is on...

Everyone was finishing loading everything on the ship and Mayla was saying her goodbyes to Amber.

"I'm going to miss you Amber." Mayla said with tears in her eyes.

"I'm going to miss you too." Amber said.

"Mayla we're going." Anakin called.

"Well I guess this is goodbye." Mayla said.

"No it's see you later." Amber said.

The girls hugged.

Then Mayla slowly went into the Falcon preparing for a new life.

About 2 days later –Coruscant – Repaired Jedi landing platform...

Luke ran through the temple to the landing platform. He had just dropped off Markus with Lando, Han and Leia. He and Mace were going to greet Anakin and Obi-Wan.

"Am I late?" Luke asked.

"No. But you are out of breath. Remember it's not good for you to be out of breath from just running through the temple. You need to be ready at all times." Mace said.

"I'm sorry Master."

"They're here." Mace said as a speeder pulled up to the platform.

Luke watched as Anakin stepped out of their speeder.

Mace and Luke went up and greeted him.

"Master Skywalker, Master Kenobi. Happy to see you're back." Mace said.

"Good to be back. I hate..." Anakin stopped, "No I dislike Mustafar. Not hate, hate is the dark side and I am not going back to that side. I dislike Mustafar."

"Doesn't surprise me." Luke muttered.

"Um would you excuse us for a minute? Thanks." Anakin said to Mace pulling Luke aside.

Mace walked away to Obi-Wan and Mayla (whom Luke didn't see).

"Look, Lando told Obi-Wan and I about how you got the files mixed up." Anakin said.

"Yeah." Luke said.

"I know that you saw something about Obi-Wan, your mother and I. I want you to know that that was all Vader. None of that was me, I swear to you. And believe me if I could take it back, I would. But I can't, I honestly wish I could." Anakin said.

"I know. I talked to R2 about it." Luke said.

"Yeah you see –Hold on you asked R2 about it?" Anakin asked shocked.

"Can you think of anyone else I could have talked to at the time?" Luke asked.

Anakin considered it for a moment, "Fair enough."

"R2 told me about how it what Vader and what had you done. He even told me that after you killed the separatists that you cried." Luke said.

"He saw that?"

"Yep. He recorded it."

"He wasn't even near me."

"Ok he stole the security tape." Luke admitted.

"He's stolen a lot of tapes and recordings." Anakin said.

"I think he might be a kleptomaniac with recordings. He always seems to have recordings of things that he wasn't even there for."

They both laughed.

"So are we ok?" Anakin asked.

"Yeah, I think we are." Luke said.

"Great."

There was some awkward silence.

"So Leia told me that I outrank you." Luke said.

"She told you about that?" Anakin asked.

"Yeah, she also told me that you bet her in a game of Sabacc. Why?"

"I'll show you."

They walked towards Obi-Wan, Mace and Mayla (who Luke still couldn't see.

"Luke." Obi-Wan greeted.

"Master Obi-Wan." Luke said with a small bow.

"Mace was just telling me about your recent analysis of the "apartments" in the temple." Obi-Wan said.

"Yes, and I don't believe– we've met." Luke said spotting Mayla, lightly pushing Obi-Wan aside and stepping towards her. "Luke, Luke Skywalker."

"Mayla, Mayla Rekin." Mayla said shaking Luke's extended hand.

Luke froze.

"Rekin? Mayla Rekin?" Luke asked shocked.

"Yes." Mayla said.

"How can that be?" Luke asked her but looked at Anakin as he said it.

"She hasn't told us yet." Anakin said.

"And I don't wish to tell just yet. I barely know all of you and the wound is still pretty fresh in my mind." Mayla said in almost a pained way.

"Of course." Obi-Wan said.

"I won't pry any further. But, sorry if I sound rude here, why are you here?" Luke asked.

"That's Anakin's doing." Obi-Wan said.

Anakin, Obi-Wan and Mayla explained about what had happened. Some things surprised Mace and Luke, especially...

"Hold on hold on! You bet your own daughterin a game of Sabacc to ensure the freedom of a girl you hardly know?" Mace asked. "You don't even legally own her." (Thank you big time the reviewer by the name of big-time for pointing that out.)

"I had a plan, if for some reason I lost the game." Anakin said.

"And what plan was that?" Luke asked.

"I would step in and be the slave instead then somehow get out of it." Anakin said.

"And how would you get out of it?" Obi-Wan asked.

"Obi-Wan you've known me long enough to know I don't think that far ahead." Anakin said.

Everyone (except Mayla) groaned and rolled their eyes.

"Well at least you won." Mayla said.

"She's right." Luke said.

"Now I was thinking that we should train her. I mean she does have the right midichlorian count." Anakin said.

"And what exactly is that count?" Mace asked. "We need an exact count in order to accept her."

"We don't have an exact count for Luke and yet he's part of the order." Anakin said.

"Actually we do." Obi-Wan said. "We got the count when he and Leia were born."

"Oh right, I forgot, you were there." Anakin dryly said.

"Not this again." Obi-Wan said.

"You were there when I was born?" Luke asked.

"That's not important now." Obi-Wan said. "What's important is that we have a count for you."

"And what is that count?" Anakin asked.

"14, 500." Obi-Wan said.

"At the moment it doesn't matter what Luke's count is. What matters is what her count is." Mace said.

"I have a name you know." Mayla muttered.

"I didn't memorise the number." Anakin said. Obviously no one had heard her muttering.

"Then we need to test her count." Mace said.

"Fine. How do you do that? Some sort mental test?" Mayla asked.

"Blood test." Obi-Wan said.

"I'm sorry?" Mayla said shocked.

"We test your blood for a midichlorian count." Mace said, "Don't worry it doesn't hurt."

"What count does she need to have to be a Jedi?" Luke asked.

"You need to have a count of 7000 to be considered to be trained. The average Jedi has a count of 10,000." Mace said.

"That was Master Qui-Gon's count in fact." Obi-Wan said.

"Who's Qui-Gon?" Mayla asked confused.

"I'll tell you later." Anakin said.

"Ok, so I need at least a 7000 for you to consider me?" Mayla asked.

"If you have over 10,000 we'll let you in." Anakin said.

"When did we decide this?" Obi-Wan asked.

"Just now." Anakin said.

"Of course." Obi-Wan muttered.

"If she needs to be reconsidered to become an agent of the force, Sith or Jedi, don't you three need to have your counts reconsidered?" Luke asked.

"I don't think so." Anakin said.

"Why?" Mayla said.

"I have a count of 12,000." Mace said.

"13,400." Obi-Wan said.

"And I have a count of 27,700, when Yoda had a mere count of 17,700. My count is the highest ever on record." Anakin boasted.

"Anakin we've been over this. The only reason your count is so high is because your father is the force." Obi-Wan said.

"Still." Anakin said.

"And people wonder why I have issues." Luke muttered.

Later –After the test...

Obi-Wan, Anakin, Luke and Mayla were waiting for Mace to come back with the results.

"There you go." Luke said finishing bandaging Mayla's arm where they had drawn her blood.

"Thanks." Mayla said.

"No problem." Luke said.

Mace came back into the room.

Everyone stood up.

"Well?" Anakin said.

"Mayla..." Mace said, "... Welcome to the order."

"What's my count?" Mayla asked.

"13,500." Mace said.

Everyone was happy about this news. Except Anakin saw that something was disturbing Obi-Wan.

"Obi-Wan what's wrong?" Anakin asked while Mace and Luke congratulated Mayla.

"Anakin when we were on Mustafar I felt that the disturbance was more than a girl with 13,500. The disturbance was stronger than that." Obi-Wan said.

"What does that mean?" Anakin asked.

"It means that somewhere on Mustafar there's another force sensitive." Obi-Wan said.

I got all information on midichlorian counts on supershadow dot com.

For those still wondering about Mayla's past and Padmé's condition don't worry. Mayla's past will be revealed to someone who has gotten very close to Mayla in the next chapter (which takes place 3 months after this chapter). Padmé's final condition will be revealed in 1 or 2 chapters. Also something exciting is going to happen involving Leia and Han's relationship. And Lando and Luke's love lives (separate ones) will start to heat up in the next chapter.

Plus what do you guys think of R2 being a kleptomaniac?
