Chapter 19: I'm Coming For You

"Oh we will see" Aayla says coldly.

Obi Wan was shocked. He knew there was no chance of turning them back, they are too far gone. The only thing he can do is fight.

"Let us go", Sabe demands. Shaak Ti couldn't help but laugh.

"Look at what we have here. A queen who isn't even there to protect her own people. They will probably be devastated to see someone of your reputation be killed", Shaak Ti says. Sabe tensed up she hated being slandered by that Torgruta.

"I'm not the queen anymore. My people need someone better to lead them. This corruption in the Republic needs to stop and I will not be a part of their antics", Sabe shouts. She felt somewhat good inside standing up to her attackers.

"Yeah you won't be a part of this galaxy anymore when we are done with you", Aayla fires back. Her eyes were glowing sith yellow.

Shaak Ti approaches Padme and pulls Sophie to her. Padme tried to resist but knew it was a stupid idea. If she tried to shoot at Shaak Ti she would easily block it and then kill her. So Padme had to watch Shaak Ti talk to Sophie.

"What a beautiful little girl, it's saddens me that she will have to go", Shaak Ti says softly brushing her face on Sophie's cheek. Sophie was trembling in worry. The cold rough touch from the Torgruta made her squirm.

Obi Wan stood up to Sophie's defense and approached Shaak Ti with his lightsaber drawn at her.

"Let her go she is only a child", Obi Wan shouts. Shaak Ti smiled and grabbed the girl placing her lightsaber a few inches from Sophie's neck. Padme dropped her blaster and covered her mouth in terror.

Sophie is about to die, and Padme can't bear to see it.

"I suggest you stand back Obi Wan or your actions will get this young girl killed", Shaak Ti threatens. Obi Wan slowly pulled back into his original position knowing that if he would charge the former jedi master Sophie would be murdered.

"Hmm on second thought I think we will take the girl and raise her right", Shaak Ti chuckles. She gives Aayla a grin which makes Aayla laugh.

"Oh yes we will", Aayla simply says. They were going to take Sophie from them and train her to kill the Nightstalker and become very powerful in the dark side.

"No you can't do that", Padme yells. She doesn't want to see Sophie taken from her. She was to protect Sophie and if the vigilante hears that she was taken he will go on a rampage.

"Oh are you going to stop me", Shaak Ti hisses at Padme. She knew she was no match for the corrupt jedi master but a feeling in her gut said that she was.

Shaak Ti pulled Sophie away from them and nodded to the soldiers.

They raised their blasters again ready to fire. Padme closed her eyes and prayed for a miracle.


Anakin hopped in his starfighter and began flying through Naboo. As he made his way past the summer home he noticed a few ships with a group of people surrounded by republic soldiers. He realized that it was Padme and the others but Anakin couldn't come to his senses. He flew passed them. "Anakin you can't go back there you need to leave", he says to himself. Anakin starts flying out of Naboo's atmosphere when suddenly his ship turns around and heads back to the lake retreat.

"What the fuck is going on", he shouts looking around his ship to see what the problem was. Anakin knew he couldn't help them, he wasn't in the right state of mind.

"Ani", a voice shouted. Anakin looked up and saw his mom looking furiously back at him. He soon realized that whatever he was doing before was a mistake.

"You are not leaving those people behind, they are going to die. The two jedi are going to take Sophie and raise her in the dark side. Do you want to see the young girl that admires you fall to the dark side", Shmi shouts. Anakin placed his head down in defeat. He was acting too selfish, he only worried about himself and not about the others. He swore to protect the innocent and this proved he was moving from that promise.

"I'm sorry mom. You're right I have to help, I shouldn't be so selfish, I was just too caught up with these emotions I was feeling", Anakin apologetically says to Shmi. Shmi smiles finally happy to see her son turning himself around and going to help them.

"Son don't apologize. I understand your pain, I know how much it troubles you but don't worry I am always here for you even though it doesn't seem like I am. I love you my son. Now go make me and Rako proud", Shmi beams. Anakin looked up in confusion when his mother said Rako. "How can she know him", he says to himself. But another figure appeared next to Shmi and it was Rako.

"Anakin, save them from those monsters. The same monsters my brothers and sisters fought to destroy. Make me proud and continue on my legacy. THIS IS THE WAY", Rako yells.

Anakin shouted back "THIS IS THE WAY." He placed his helmet back on and landed in the forest right near the confrontation. Anakin quickly hopped out of his starfighter and sprinted to them with his lightsaber still clipped to his belt. To everyone standing there he was unrecognizable. His armor and helmet made Anakin a totally different person, he looked stronger than before and his voice was scrambled so you could never know his true identity.

"LET GO OF THE GIRL", Anakin shouts slowly approaching Shaak Ti. Everyone turned in disbelief as they looked at the armored figure. It was a mandalorian, ever since the devastating war between the Mandalorians and the Republic, there wasn't many of them left alive. They were either in hiding or killed.

Shaak Ti took her hands of Sophie and she ran into Padme's arms. They began to both cry in relief as they were reunited. Anakin's anger began to boil. "They were going to take Sophie, they were going to kill everyone here. Not on my fucking watch", he shouts to himself.

"Oh a mandalorian. What a surprise, such a shame to your people. Shows how retarded the Mandalorians were for picking a fight with the Republic", Shaak Ti laughs. She clearly remembers mowing down dozens of Mandalorians during the war and she enjoyed it. She had a fond hatred towards them, she always believed they were a ruthless race who only looked to gain territory.

"The Mandalorians were good people. They stood up and fought to save the Republic and ultimately were defeated by the corruption. They understood the corruption and wanted to save the galaxy from your reign of terror", Anakin retorts. He hated how Shaak Ti made fun of the Mandalorians. He had a flashback to when Rako told him about the war. How depressed and upset he felt talking about it, he served among the best warriors the galaxy has ever seen. They all fought for the same thing, to save the galaxy but were cut down by the jedi.

Aayla laughed pulling herself closer to Padme and Sophie waving her lightsaber in their faces.

"Now let these people go", Anakin shouts. Shaak Ti approached the Mandalorian with disgust.

"Why would we listen to someone as pathetic as you", she spits at him.

Anakin smiled beneath his helmet. He couldn't wait to see everyone's reaction when he ignites his white lightsaber. Then they will know who he is.

"Because they are not the ones you want, I AM", Anakin says igniting his lightsaber. Everyone gasped as they saw that the man under the beskar was no ordinary Mandalorian he was the Nightstalker. Shaak Ti ignited her blade once again and rushed the Nightstalker. Aayla pulled away from Padme and screamed "I WILL KILL YOU FOR MURDERING MY KIT FISTO".

He began having an intense duel with Shaak Ti but he didn't break a sweat. He laughed at what Aayla shouted at him. He turned to the blue figure charging at him from his left.

"Kit Fisto was a fucking idiot. He knew of my power and look at what it brought him. Death. Now you two will meet his fate", Anakin says menacingly. The others ran to the ship except Obi Wan who decided to help the vigilante, a part of him felt that he was no match for the two corrupt jedi.

Padme shouted to Obi Wan but he didn't listen. Obi Wan got closer to the fight when Anakin quickly force pushed him back onto the ship's ramp.

"I can't leave you Nightstalker you will die", Obi Wan pleas. He tries to run towards the fight once more but Anakin force pushes him back again.

"Leave me. I don't fear death. Death fears me. THIS IS THE WAY" Anakin shouts turning his head back to the fight. He unleashed his pure hatred, his eyes turned black. Aayla and Shaak Ti were getting overwhelmed by the vigilante's powerful strikes. They were no match for him. Obi Wan got up and knew that if he tried to interfere he would be pushed back again. He turned around and helped Padme and Sophie get on the ship. As they entered Padme ran to the window to watch the fight.

"Anakin", she whispers. Padme watches in awe at how Anakin easily toys with the two jedi like they are nothing. Aayla went for a counterattack to Anakin's left side but it was blocked. She sent a swing to his right but faked it and swung to her left hoping to hit him but Anakin blocked it again. The two former jedi knew that they couldn't take down this menace by themselves so Shaak Ti ordered the soldiers to fire on the Nightstalker. Numerous blaster bolts flew at Anakin hitting his beskar which deflected them off. But Anakin stumbled to the ground as the bolts hit his armor and bounced off and Padme screamed in horror.

"NO ANAKIN", she shouted watching the man she loves get shot at from all sides. She turned from the window and grabbed her blaster. She started to run out of the ship when Obi Wan and Bail grabbed her. The ship started to lift up off the ground and Padme shouted in anger.

"Let go of me, he is going to die. He needs our help", she shouts. Obi Wan grabbed her shoulder. Padme threw his arm off her but as she was about to jump to help Anakin the ramp closed.

"You are just going to let him die. After everything he has done for us", Padme questions Obi Wan. He saw the sadness and anger in her eyes.

"Padme please, there was no way we could save him. He wasn't going to allow any of us near him", he pleas. Padme had enough she began to bang on the ramp crying in pain.

"ANAKIN, ANAKIN PLEASE ANAKIN, DON'T DIE", she falls to the ground and curls up crying. "I love you", she whispers.


Ki-Adi Mundi and Yoda quickly flew through Naboo's atmosphere undetected and made their way to the mountain region where they felt the two jedi.

"Hmm something bad I feel, go help we must", Yoda comms to Ki-Adi Mundi. Ki-Adi Mundi nods and follows Yoda to the mountain regions.

Shaak Ti and Aayla stood over Anakin smiling in victory. They looked at the man they hated so much. How he kneeled before them.

"You will die Nightstalker. You are a weak piece of shit and always were. Your time of terror is now over. The Republic will return to its former glory without you", Shaak Ti chuckles. Aayla raised her lightsaber about to deliver a finishing blow to Anakin.

"You thought that everything you done would save the Republic. Huh now I will get my revenge. Your sacrifice won't mean shit", Aayla grunts in fury. Anakin looks at the woman and smiles beneath his mask.

"A man who won't die for something, is not fit to live", Anakin simply says. He looked up and saw her raise the blade ready to slice his neck off.

Anakin heard his mom's voices shout in his head from when he was about to die from the lady back in Coruscant.

"Ani don't give up"

"Show these motherfuckers why they should never mess with a Skywalker"

"Make me proud my son, I love you"

Anakin knew what had to be done. As Aayla swung her lightsaber to finish it all Anakin stopped it with the force. Aayla was confused and tried to push harder but Anakin pushed it back slicing her ear off. She gasped in pain as she fell back. Anakin stood up and called his lightsaber to him.

He now radiated the true dark side and Shaak Ti noticed it. Before she can say anything Anakin raised her in a force choke.

He slowly approached the Torgruta and smiled.

"Oh how pathetic you look now. You thought you were saving the Republic well you got it all wrong. I AM SAVING THE GALAXY FROM YOU", Anakin shouts. He beheads Shaak Ti with such ferocity that her head exploded into a million pieces. The soldiers stood there terrified. None of them wanted to challenge the vigilante because they knew what would happen. After finishing one of them Anakin stood over Aayla who was on the ground dumbfounded.

"Please don't kill me. I was corrupt but you showed me the light, please help me", she pleas. Anakin looks at Aayla feeling no pity for her. He knew she was fucking lying, once you go corrupt you only get worse not the other way around.

"Shut the fuck up", Anakin yells plunging his lightsaber through her chest. She began to screech so loud that the soldiers quickly hopped into their transports and ran. It was pretty gruesome, the noise that spewed from her mouth was terrifying. It sounded like an exorcism. But Anakin couldn't take anymore of her screaming and stabbed her heart.

"Fucking piece of shit", he mutters stomping his foot and her head smashing it. Right as Anakin finished taking out his anger on the two corrupt jedi he looked up to see two jedi starfighters landing near him. He gripped his lightsaber and approached the jedi, Anakin was ready for another fight.

Yoda and Ki-Adi Mundi exited their ships with their lightsabers ignited. They looked around for Shaak Ti and Aayla but saw no sign of them.

"Stand back jedi. I already killed two of your people, but killing two more wouldn't be that bad", Anakin says menacingly. Yoda and Ki-Adi Mundi both disengaged their lightsabers which made Anakin confused. They hated him, he literally killed two jedi masters and it seems they don't care.

"Thank you Nightstalker, good man you are. Saved Obi Wan and the others you have from the two corrupt jedi. Sensed the dark side in them I did. Came to help those people we were going to. But it seems you have taken care of it", Yoda smiles placing his lightsaber back on his belt.

Anakin turned off his lightsaber but kept it gripped on his hand, even though the grand master sounded honest with his words Anakin still didn't trust him. Why should he, they said they were peacekeepers but look at them now. Going around killing innocent people.

"Why aren't you going to fight me, I killed two jedi masters. Doesn't that mean anything to you", Anakin shouts. Yoda stood silent but Ki-Adi Mundi stepped up.

"Nightstalker me and Yoda are going to fix the order. We are currently tracking down each corrupt jedi knight and expelling them. We sensed the dark side in Shaak Ti and Aayla, so we sought to come and stop them. But it seems you beat us to it. Me and Grand Master Yoda just want to say that we see the goodness in you and we decided that the jedi will not interfere with your mission. Only corrupt jedi will be after you but we are trying our best to stop them all", Ki-Adi Mundi says.

Anakin nods and begins to walk away from them.

"May the Force Be With You", Yoda yells. Anakin stops for a second then continues on back to his starfighter. "The job is done I saved Sophie and the others. Now it's time to find this son of a bitch who is trying to kill me", Anakin says to himself. He hops in his starfighter and punches in coordinates for Tatooine. He doesn't know why but Anakin has a feeling he may find a clue on that dust ball. A clue that can lead him to that pussy.

Anakin flew out of Naboo's atmosphere and into space. He turned off cloaking and quickly launched into hyperspace.

"Never thought I would be coming back to this dust ball", Anakin sighs. "But when do I ever get what I want anyways", he continues. No matter how hard he wanted to stay away from Tatooine something always came up that brought him back there. Even though he doesn't want to come back because of the events he lived through as a child he couldn't stop now. The mission was critical and if he felt there might be a clue on Tatooine then he will have to go to Tatooine.


Padme was still on the floor crying uncontrollably. A part of her felt that Anakin was gone and she will never see him again.

"Ani, please don't be dead. Please I need you", she chokes. Padme can't bear to do anything, all she wants to do is lay on the floor and cry. Obi Wan and Bail didn't know what to do, they never seen Padme in this situation. She was so broken inside that trying to talk to her was like talking to a wall.

"Bail what are we going to do", Obi Wan whispers. "I can't stand to see her like this", he continues. Bail nods "me either. Maybe we can get Sophie to cheer her up". They both agreed to that idea and left Padme to find Sophie. As they walked through the ship's corridors then found Sophie playing with a white and blue astromech.

"Hey Sophie can you come with us, it's urgent", Obi Wan says politely. Sophie turns around and crosses her arms.

"No, I am playing with Artoo", she fires back rebelliously. Obi Wan gave Bail a look for help. Bail approached Sophie and bent down to her eye level.

"Sophie", he murmurs "Artoo can come with you. So can you please come with us" Bail continues.

Sophie finally agreed and hugged Artoo.

"Let's go artoo", she smiles. Artoo happily beeps following Sophie out of the room and towards the entrance ramp where Padme was weeping.

As they approached the ramp Sophie's mood turned from happy to sad.

"What's wrong with mommy", Sophie says. Obi Wan looked at Bail then to Sophie. He didn't want to tell her it was about Anakin because Sophie would be heartbroken too. So Obi Wan had to lie to Sophie.

"I don't know, she won't talk to us but maybe you can. She loves you and hearing your voice might calm her down", Obi Wan says. Sophie nods and leads Artoo to Padme.

Sophie came up behind Padme and hugged her.

"Mommy are you okay", Sophie sniffled. If she sees someone sad then she feels sad. Sophie has a tendency to feel the same emotion to whoever she is around.

Padme slowly turned wiping her tears that flowed from her face. She fixed her hair that draped over her face. She gazed into Sophie's eyes and tightly embraced her. Padme began to cry again letting her tears fall onto Sophie's back. Padme felt something cold touching her left side. She turned her head and saw Artoo nudging her beeping sadly.

Padme's face lit up in joy. "ARTOO", she yells hugging the astromech. Artoo began to fidget and beeps happily. Padme was close friends with Artoo. Artoo was Padme's droid back when she was a kid. When she became a senator she never got to see him and a part of her thought she would never see him again.

"Mommy you know Artoo", Sophie says smiling. She was glad to see Padme happy and not sad.

Padme gracefully nodded "Yes me and Artoo go way back." She paused for a moment taking in the joy she felt seeing her long lost friend finally reunited with her. "How about we all go get something to eat, I am starving", Padme says rubbing her stomach. Sophie grabbed Padme's hand and they began to walk to the chow room.

They finally made it and were met with joyful gazes. Bail and Obi Wan felt relieved that Padme is now in a good mood.

She sat down next to Jobal and they began to eat. Everyone was having a good time joking and talking nonsense. All those thoughts Padme had of Anakin dying was gone. But in reality Anakin didn't die, he never dies unless he wants to. Anakin is the embodiment of death, he brings death to others who deserve it. Nevertheless Padme and the others decided to head to the living quarters and play games with each other enjoying each other's presence.


Anakin finally entered Tatooine and landed by his old home. As he hopped out of his starfighter Anakin stood still. He was confused because there was nothing there but sand and ashes. He walked closer and examined the area where his original home stood.

Anakin dropped to the ground when he realized it has been burnt down. Everything that he worked for and all his memories that were in that house was gone. Anakin turned to his mom's grave and saw the tombstone was smashed. He also saw a note next to her grave. Curious Anakin walked up and picked the note up.

It read

This is what you get Nightstalker. You should've accepted death in Coruscant to my female spy. Now I burnt down everything that was close to you. I even destroyed your own mother's grave. She was a whore and a slut. I was so glad that I killed her with my men in front of your own eyes. It brought me so much joy to see someone as young as you have to see your own mother die. Huh I guess that is what you get when you are a pathetic slave your whole life.

Anakin ripped the note and dropped in front of his mom's grave. He didn't know what to feel at this point, he was angry and also sad. Nothing seemed to come out.

"He killed her. That man whoever he is killed my mom, it wasn't Jabba or the Zygerrians. That motherfucker did it. He is on the top of my list, he ruined me and my mother's life", Anakin says to himself. Those words from the note kept coming back into Anakin's head tormenting him.

"Your mom was a whore and a slut"

"I was so glad that I killed her with my men in front of your own eyes"

"Huh I guess that is what you get when you are a pathetic slave"

Anakin started to lose it his eyes became blacker than ever before. He felt the sand around him begin to move abruptly.

"Your mom was a whore and a slut"

That sentence kept hitting Anakin's mind. He needs to find that bitch and make him pay.

"I GOING TO MAKE YOU PAY, YOU MOTHERFUCKER. I WILL FIND YOU AND I WILL KILL YOU. MY LIGHTSABER WILL BE RED AFTER I'M DONE WITH YOU", Anakin screams. A raging storm formed around him, he felt the strength of the darkness surging through his body. Anakin didn't feel like himself anymore. He felt full of hatred and anger towards the man who ruined his life. It was like his normal self was gone and there was no sign of it anymore.

"AAHHHHHHH", he screams once more grabbing the sand in front of his mother's grave. The scream was so loud and disturbing that any force user around the galaxy can hear it. Anakin dropped to the floor and sobbed on his mother's grave. He was truly alone, his mom was gone, the droid he built was gone and now his home was gone. Everything Anakin had was ripped away from him. The only thing he had left of his mother was her necklace and a photo of her. Not even her gravestone remained everything was destroyed and it shattered Anakin inside and out.

"Mom I will avenge you. Mom I will avenge you", Anakin whispers.
