Anakin POV

We all decided that the best thing to do was to get them all back to Coruscant as quick as possible. So that is what we did. We meet up with a Republic Cruiser that could apply medical aid to Padme, Mom, Ashoka, and Satine. I watched as Padme got loaded off the gunship in a stretcher, and was taken straight to the infirmary. I went to go with her, but Obi-Wan grabbed my arm.

"We must report to Master Yoda," he said.

I sighed but nodded.

We all went into the control center where a hologram of Yoda and Mace Windu was waiting for us.

"A success, your mission was?" asked Yoda.

"We are waiting on the doctors to give a full account of what happened to the women, but yes, master they are all with us safe," said Qui-Gon.

"A trap was it, hmm?" he asked.

"Yes master," I said. "It is clear that they wanted me to join them. The place, their targets, what they did to the captives. It was all a trap."

"But you did not succumb to it," said Mace Windu.

"No. I stabbed him, and Sidious and Dokoo will wake up on Coruscant in chains," I said with a hint of glee in my voice.

"Careful you must be young Skywalker. A path to the darkside, revenge is," said Master Yoda.

I nodded.

"But celebrate we will your success, once you return. Continue with training you will," he said.

"Continue? But Master Yoda, Sidious is captured. Why is there a need to continue?" I asked.

"Always a call to the dark side you will feel, I fear. Train relentlessly, you must."

"Palpatine is one of a hundred Sith. You are the only chosen one. They will do whatever they can to seduce you," said Mace Windu.

I sighed. "I just thought this was over. That Vader was truly dead."

"Relax Anakin," said Obi-Wan putting a hand on my shoulder, "You are not alone."

"See you when you arrive, we will," said Yoda, and then they signed off.

"I really thought I was out of the woods," I mumbled.

"Anakin, now is not the time for mopping. Padme has just been captured by a Sith Lord and she does not need you feeling sorry for yourself."

That stirred me. "Yeah, let's go see them."

We raced through the halls of the ship to the medical unit. I got there first, and saw that there were a couple of clones being attended to from the battle. I went up to one of the droids and said, "Excuse me, where is the Senator?"

"Hall two, room four," said the droid.

I went through the hallways until I found the room I was looking for. Through a glass door, I could see Padme was unconscious wearing a white medical gown and laying on a table with two droids swirling around her. She had an IV in her arm that was dripping some sort of milky substance into her body. There were two machines hooked up to her. I could tell just from my own medical history that one was a heart monitor, and the other was taking her blood pressure. I stepped into the glass room, and went to take her hand.

"No one is to be in here," said the droid.

"I'm her husband. What is wrong with her?"

"She has sustained multiple injuries that are consistent with blunt trauma. She has several broken bones, her kidneys are bruised but recovering, and she has a concussion. She will be on IV's and antibiotics for some time. But there is no permanent damage to her or the fetuses."

What?! "The fetuses?" I asked.

"Your wife is pregnant. According to the ultrasound, it is twins."

Suddenly, the room was spinning, and I felt like I was going to pass out. I stumbled towards the door and went to find Obi-Wan. I started to mumble his name. My head felt like it was going to explode and I could not get enough air in my lungs.

"Skyguy," came a voice far away.

I turned and started walking towards the voice feeling like a zombie.

"Is he alright?" came a voice that is much closer.

"I don't know. He keeps asking for you," said someone else.

Then I felt someone grab my arm and pull me around. "Anakin, are you alright?"

"Pregnant" I mumbled, and then the world went black.

I woke up in a bed at the hospital, with Obi-Wan sitting by me. "Master," I said.

He turned to me. "Ah, you're up. How are you feeling?"

"What happened?" I asked.

"Well, you found out that you were going to be an expectant father, and you passed out. It was actually quite hilarious once we all found out what was going on."

"I passed out?" I asked embarrassed. "Does Ahsoka know?"

"Oh yes. You will get mocked about this for years, I'm afraid," he said with a chuckle.

"It's not that I'm scared to be a father, it's just that I don't want this to happen the way it happened last time. I ruined it, and I am so scared it is going to happen again."

"Anakin, didn't you just face a Sith Lord to get back your entire family. You have come a long way padawan. You are striving to become the man I know you are supposed to become. You are asking for help when you need it, and it is working. You can be a great father."

I sat up and swung my legs over. "Thank you," I said. "Now I need to go see my wife."

I walked through the hospital floor, and found Padme's room. She was there sitting up eating a salad. She started laughing when I came in.

"You passed out?!" she said.

"No, I um, I swooned when I heard the news of our children."

She laughed and I started laughing too. I walked over to her and kissed her. "Okay yeah. I passed out. But hey, this did not end well for us last time."

"Oh, Anakin, that was because of Palpatine. You defeated him. We are safe. Our family is safe."

"Yeah, and I am going to keep us safe. I promise."
