Amidala, Piett, Skywalker and Kenobi

General Rex announced to Piett and Padme that Kamino was coming up. "Rex, I remember you from the Clone Wars."

"And I remember you, Senator Amidala."

"What happened to Anakin?" she asked softly.

"It's not really my place, milady," he stated dutifully.

"I'm his wife, I deserve to know."

"That's up to Lord Vader, milady. This here is our start. I suggest you talk to Taun We. She is the overseer here."

"Thank you, Rex. I will do that. One more thing, what happened to Ashoka?"

"MIA. Even with Order Sixty Six we couldn't find her." Padme narrowed her eyes at him."When Anakin left the Outer Rim, didn't he leave Ashoka in charge?"

"Yes, Commander Tano was in charge."

"Above you."

"Yes. Lord Vader had instructed me to look after her."

"Then what happened?"

"Order Sixty Six. It was our order to turn on our Jedi commanders. We did. She went MIA. We reported the issue to command."

"She's never been found?"

"No ma'am. I need to take care of the docking fees, Lady Vader. If you will please excuse me..." she allowed him to leave her sight as she stood with Piett at her side and went to find Taun Le. Instead, she heard the sounds of a lightsaber, a sound she knew well. She followed the sound and found herself staring at two familiar droids.

"Artoo!" she exclaimed. The last time she had seen Artoo and Three-pio was on Mustafar. He beeped and moved toward her as she rubbed his dome. "Three-pio, how is this possible? What are you doing on Kamino?"

"I'm sorry milady but my sensors do not recognize you."

"You don't recognize me? You used to work with me in the Senate." She was briefly puzzled and turned her attention past him to the older man with two young boys.

One that looked as familiar to her as her own face. "Anakin?" she whispered, she suddenly felt very dizzy as the world slipped from beneath her. The older man caught her just in time and he carried her to the bed and commanded the boy, "Luke, please get me a cloth from the 'fresher."

"Who is she? Why did she call me by my father's name? Ben?"

"Please, we will need to revive her Luke."

"She's in my care," Piett spoke up.

"And who might you be?" Ben asked, noting the Imperial uniform.

"Captain Fimus Piett, Captain of the Imperial Navy, 501'st division, member of Lord Vader's hand."

"I see."

"Do you know who I am?"

"No."

"My name is Ben Kenobi and this is my grandson, Luke Kenobi-Skywalker and his friend, our pilot, Han Solo."

"My Lady Vader," Piett stated nodding to the woman who was now out cold.

"I wonder what is her legal name?"

"Padme Amidala."

"Oh Sith," Kenobi swore. "He did it, he brought her back."

"That's ludicrous," stated Han Solo. "It ain't real. It's all a bunch of crazy magic tricks."

"It's very real, son. All too real. This woman was...is Luke's mother, the wife of Anakin Skywalker."
