Chapter 62

Obi-wan was pacing outside the place he called house. He still couldn't get what he saw out of his head.

Laetitia on Tatooine? Of all places, why the blazes Tatooine?!

From the look of things, she didn't seem to remember him, so that was a good thing. If she recognized him, she would've come find him but 2 days had passed and there was no sign of her. That only meant one thing. Laetitia didn't have her memories.

He knew it was only a matter of time before she regains them, but that didn't matter to him. He just wanted to keep her the way she was. Happy. Living as Ami Banai, Kitster Banai's adopted daughter and not general Laetitia Naberrie, Anakin Skywalker's daughter, no. Darth Vader's daughter.


He was too deep in his thoughts that he didn't even realize someone coming. He suddenly found himself thrown away by a blast that felt like the Force.

He got up quickly and was ready to fight but froze when he saw who it came from.

"Surprised, master? That I have my powers again?" Laetitia asked as calm as she could but she was one word away from being exploded.

"Or that I recognize you at all?!" she shouted with angry tears in her eyes. She was even scarier because of her white her.

Obi-wan was frozen. She hadn't come for 2 days. Why did she come now? What had happened that made her remember?

"Laetitia …"

"WHY?!" She yelled and the ground shook. She was losing control of her strong powers that she hadn't used in 6 years.

"Why did you do it?"

Obi-wan opened his mouth to say something but no words came out. What was he even supposed to say?

Leah just kept looking at him with disappointed eyes. It was worse than her yelling and swearing at him.

"Let's go inside." Was all he managed to say.

Leah laughed as if she had heard a joke.

"I am the one with messed-up memory here, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. The last time I was alone with you in ... that damn hut, you knocked me out, erased my memories and severed my connection to the Force with this!" She shouted as she held up her hand and showed the Force-inhibitor chip Obi-wan had put inside her.

He looked at her calmly. He deserved worse and she was just telling the truth.

"And when that wasn't enough, you left me alone, like a … an unwanted piece of meat, and sent me to Corellia. Corellia! Where every criminal and smuggler lives."

"I know there is nothing I can say or do to make you feel better but please, let's have this conversation inside the house. It would attract too many attentions here." Obi-wan begged.

Leah rolled her eyes.

"Fine. But just a warning. Try anything and I won't hesitate to kill you."


Inside Obi-wan's hut, there was nothing. There were even less things than there were in his room in the Jedi Temple.

Laetitia found somewhere to sit on. She was calming herself. It took her a while to concentrate and make her hair appear brown again.

She saw Obi-wan approaching with a glass of water in his hand.

"Here. It can help calm you down."

Leah took it in her hands and looked at it with suspicion.

"You're not dosing me again, are you?"

Obi-wan sighed. He forgot who he was dealing with here. A kid who had been lied to and betrayed by everyone in her life, even her own father.

Anakin.

Obi-wan went to his thought again. How was he supposed to tell her that her father is the most hated man in the Galaxy because of what she did? The Emperor's slave? The Jedi hunter?

Should I even tell her …?

Obi-wan saw Leah giving him a look. He took a sip from her glass.

"There is nothing in it."

"I hope there was poison in it." She said bluntly.

Obi-wan chuckled. She was definitely Anakin's daughter. Paranoid, stubborn, fearless and … sweet, sometimes and definitely not to anyone.

He had imagined having this conversation a thousand times but actually happening was different.

"So ... what made you remember?"

"What made you erase my memories and leave me?" Leah asked, ignoring the question asked of her.

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you."

"Try me."

"I did it for you."

How did I know you were gonna say that?

"You're right. I don't believe you."

"Listen, you were just a 5-year-old messed-up kid who had lost both her parents and was never going to see her brother again! Your entire childhood was gone. All your friends, dead. Your entire legion, dead. Your family … dead. Palpatine made your noble mother into a martyr for the Empire and your father …" He stopped when he saw Leah twitch in pain.

It was still a sore subject for her. For both of them but Obi-wan had time to deal with Anakin's betrayal. For Leah, it was like she was back in 6 years ago, when it just happened.

"You had lost your will to live. Had turned your back on everything including the Jedi!"

"The Jedi are the reason why everything is like this!"

"That is not the point right now. The point is, you were gonna leave. You were dead to the entire Galaxy. If you went to the Rebellion, they would kill you for being a traitor because Palpatine made you one. And if you had gone to the Imperials, Palpatine would've killed you in a heartbeat because he knows the hatred you carry for him. You couldn't see your brother, your only other family, again because if you did, Owen Lars threatened to kick him out. You were aimless. I was afraid you were gonna …"

"What? Kill myself?"

"Yes."

Leah avoided eye contact. If she was being honest with herself, the thought of just ending everything had crossed her mind. But she didn't have the time to actually do something about it since Obi-wan did what he did.

"Still. You had no right to do … this! And if you're gonna say 'I did this because I care about you', let me save your breath. You Jedi are incapable of feeling anything."

"Do you really think that?" Obi-wan asked in disbelief.

"I don't think it. I know it. I've seen it … with my own eyes. You forget, aside from everything, I was a Jedi."

He just looked down, being ashamed. He knew where she was coming from. She had lost everything at the hands of the Jedi. Even before Anakin had turned to the dark side, her life was ruined because of them.

"Wait. Did they like ... tell yo to do this to me?" Leah asked being horrified.

"No!" Obi-wan said immediately.

She gave him a look.

"Well ... master Yoda did suggest it. But I didn't do it for that, I swear."

She just scoffed.

"Like that means anything."

What else could she do? It was already done. But there was something else she was curious about.

Laetitia choked out "How is … he?"

Obi-wan looked up. She hadn't said a name but he knew very well who she was talking about.

Luke. Who else?

He chuckled "He is … happy. The Lars are taking care of him like they said they would. You have nothing to worry about."

As soon as Leah heard that, she got up. If her brother was truly happy, then it needed to stay that way, which meant, for her, getting away from him as far as possible.

"By the way, if you think this means I've forgiven you … don't get your hopes up." She said and left.

Done :)
