AU. Anakin Skywalker is captured and sold into slavery to Darth Sidious at the tender age of nine. Padmé Amidala, Queen of Naboo, faces the horrors of the Trade Federation's invasion without the help of the Galactic Senate. Both become warped by their experiences; hardened, vicious, cunning. But then they meet their match… in one another. And it changes the Republic for all time.

When he dies on the second Death Star, Darth Vader is transported to his younger body, during the start of the Clone Wars. The galaxy will never be the same again.
