Tittle: The Power of Love

Disclaimer: I do not own Star Wars! I don't own any of it. And no I am not making any money off of this. I am just 13 years old with nothing better to do than write Fan Fiction!

Summary: What if Padme was not Leia's mother but her friend? What if Anakin were Luke and Leia's brother instead of father. What if Padme loved Obi-Wan? This is an AU of what I think would happen. Review!

Ok so I just wanted to say this all started when I came up with an idea and told my friend Padme. We stared to work on it but stopped. Padme is now writing a different version that is kind of like this. So when she post's it don't say she is copying off me BECAUSE SHE IS NOT! Now that that is out of the way here is:

*Chapter 1*

Padme walked outside her ship with Caption Pananka. When she walked outside a blaze of heat hit her. She looked around and saw an endless sea of nothing. Just sand.
Pananka called after Qui-Gon, the Jedi master, who stopped at the mention of his name. "The Queen wants you to take her handmaiden Padme with you," he clearly said.
"No more orders from the queen today," the jedi master replied. He looked Pananka straight in the eye trying to tell him he was wasting time.
"The Queen is curious about the planet," he uttered back. Pananka was annoyed with the Jedi.
Padme just stood there. This Jedi is not like the ones she was told about. He was rude.
"This is not a good idea stay close to me," Qui-Gon finally said pointing to Padme. She started walking behind the Jedi, with a R2 unit and a Gungin following too.
"Thisa sun doin mudear to mesa skin," said Jar-Jar. Padme thought what have I gotten myself into?

An ear piercing alarm went off. Leia looked up as her father Bail Organa walked in. "Father what's going on?" Princess Leia inquired with a worried look on her face.
Bail looked at her, "That Trade Federation has gone too far this time. Leia come with me." She obediently got up and followed her dad out of the room.
"What have they done now," she asked this time in a worried tone.
Her father did not answer. "Leia you need to go to Corasont. Tell them that we're under attack. You better tell Luke too. Now get out of here fast."
She nodded, she didn't know what the rush was about but she knew not to ask questions at a time like this. She got in an X-wing and took off.
When she was away from the planet she saw it. It was some kind of big ship. A laser came shooting out of it and hit Alderran. The outside of the blue pearl turned bright green. It started to crack, then blew up into a million pieces. A tear fell from the princess's eye and she lost control.

"We don't want to put your son in danger," Padme said to Shmi, the mother of Anakin.
Anakin was a slave to Watto the junk dealer they talked to earlier. The 'chat' with Watto did not go so well, so Ani wanted to use is Pod Racer he built to win the money they needed to get the Hyperdrive.
"But mom... You said the problem with this universe is that no one helps anyone."
Shmi sighed, "He can help you, he was meant to help you."
"YIPPIE!" Anakin shouted. He ran away from the table to see if the sandstorm had ended so he could work on his Pod.
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Leia was going at full throttle; she was pushing the small X-wing to its limit. No, she thought, no. She was trying to run away from everything.
He family, her friends, her home was now just a cloud of dust floating out in space. Who could do such a thing?
Beep, beep, beep. "Oh shit," Leia said as her ship tumbled toward the planet before her.
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
"IT'S WORKING! IT'S WORKING!" Anakin yelled over the screaming engines of his racer.
Padme smiled, for a little kid, she thought, he's smart.
Shmi stood up on the slave quarters. She looked down at Ani, and then at Qui-Gon. We can't tell him that he'll win but we can pray.
I feel something strange about this boy, thought the Jedi, I sense something in him.
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Leia awoke to feel a blast of heat. "Huh... Oh damn!" Her ship was on fire. "I need to get out of here." She felt a little better to hear her own voice.
Leia reached to her left and found a bag. She threw it through the window and climbed out. As soon as she was a few feet away from the X-wing it blasted into flames.
Leia looked around at her surroundings. All she saw was sand. "It looks like I have a long way to go."
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
"Hay Ani wake up," Padme said softly to the sleeping slave.
"What happed," he awoke with a start.
"Nothing happened you need to get ready for the race."
"I'm gonna win this one!" Anakin jumped up to eat breakfast. "Where's Qui-Gon?"
Shmi answered, "He went off to talk to Watto, we will meet him there."
"I can't wait 'till the race! I know this time I'll win!"
"And I believe you, now eat up or we'll be late."
"Ok mom."
Padme stood outside the slave quarters, her mind dwelling on the race that would soon come. I hope he wins, he has to win. That Jedi better know what he is doing!
Then she saw a small figure crawling through the desert. "What is that?" She asked herself.
"What is what?" Shmi asked Padme.
"I'll be right back I need to take a look at something." Padme ran toward the object. As she got closer she realized it was a human female. "Hey are you alright?" She asked the girl.
The girl had on a long simple white dress; it was ripped at the end and it looked like in was burnt a little. Her crimson brown hair was rolled up into buns on the side of her head, and was coming unraveled.
She looked up at her, her face was covered with dirt, and it looked like her dark brown eyes were screaming with pain.
"Can you help me? Please I need help," the girl said in a simple tone.
"Can you get up?" Padme asked," there is a shelter near here. You can go there."
She started to get up and Padme helped her. She led her to Shmi's house.
"Shmi I found someone out in the desert! She looks hurt, can you let her lay down somewhere?" Padme shouted.
Shmi came running in, "Oh my, give her to me." Padme helped the girl walk over to Shmi, "Come with me I'll show you were you can lay down and I'll get you a glass of water." She nodded.
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
About 30 standard minutes later Padme walked in to check on the girl. She still had the same dress on but her hair was fixed neatly in buns. Her face was cleaned and she looked a little happier.
"Hi," said the young handmaiden, "I'm Padme. Who are you?"
The girl thought before answering, "Hello I'm Leia Organa from
Alderran."
"Princess Leia Organa," Padme said surprised. She nodded. "What is a princess doing out here on Tatooine?"
"Oh, so that's where I am. Well you did save me so I know I can trust you."
Padme nodded, she knew why she was being cautious. If she told the wrong person she could be in big trouble. "Don't worry, maybe we can help you."
"Well ok," Leia said. She told her everything about what her father had said, her planet blowing up, and her crashing.
"I think you father was wrong," Padme told the princess.
"How so?"
"Well I don't think the Trade Federation did that. They don't have enough power. And besides they are attacking my planet now."
"They are! That's terrible! That means you're not from around here. What happened to you?"
Padme now told her story. She told her everything but her real identity. "And that's how we got here," she finished.
"Wow so that kid Anakin must have a lot of pressure on him," Leia remarked.
"Yeah, and if he wins you can come with us on our ship."
"Ok that would be great! I feel a little better, would it be alright if I came with you to the race? I would like to see it."
"Ok then you could meet everyone."
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
"GO ANI!" Shouted the Gungin Jar-Jar Binks.
Leia seemed to be having a better time then Padme. She got into the race, but Padme just stood there with Shmi watching the view screen. Leia was yelling and rooting Anakin on.
The Jedi Qui-Gon just stood in deep thought, and Jar-Jar was a nervous wreck.
"COME ON ANI!" Yelled Leia. The only reason she got so into it was to keep her mind off Alderran. She felt such guilt, like it was her fault but she knew it was not.
Shmi gasped when Anakin crossed the finish line. He had won. The audience was in a frenzy. Half booing and the other half cheering.
Anakin jumped out of his Pod, never had he felt so big. Padme, Shmi, Qui-Gon, and Jar-Jar ran over to congratulate Anakin. Leia started back to the slave quarters. She told Padme that the heat was making her nauseous.
She looked down at her feet as she slowly walked. All she thought about was how, to her, she had let Alderran down. She felt such pain.
She paid no attention to anyone as she walked. Then BAM! She slammed into someone; it nearly knocked her over.
"Sorry," she said.
"That's ok," said a man's voice. She looked up and saw probably the most handsome man ever.
