*His Destiny: Chapter 6

In a dark room lit only by candles a silloette of a woman can be seen, it is a beautiful woman by the name of She-ar-ah Windu. She has seen and done much in her life already at the age of 30. Ten years ago she resided at the Jedi temple, but left after her lover deceived her and left her waiting for him. She didn't hate Obi Wan for it, but she was angry at him; she could never hate Obi Wan, hard as she tried she couldn't do it. She never felt comfortable around the Jedi, except for Obi Wan. From as far back as she could remember she knew that the only person she could count on was herself, she hated herself for forgetting that and letting herself fall in love, but there was something about Obi Wan that even to this day made She-ar-ah's heart skip a beat. So when she was abandoned she decided to never let someone else take advantage of her heart again. That's when he found her; he was only a Senator at the time, but he showed her power beyond her wildest dreams, and promised she could one day be just as powerful. She had to admit it was an easier life than that of the Jedi, and She-ar-ah learned how to make it even easier. She discovered how to have a life of luxury while still learning about the dark side of the force. Using her beauty and charm she now found herself the only person close to the one they called master. He looks at her with a lustful eye, and she uses that to her advantage. Ever since the death of Darth Maul by the hand of her previous lover She-ar-ah grew closer to her dark lord. That is until his attention turned to his new project...Vader.
Looking at herself in the mirror, she placed her hair atop her head using the aid of a golden snake hair clip. She then painted her lips a dark crimson, and slipped on thigh high vynal boots over her form fitting silver leather suit. She then closed her eyes and began to meditate; the newly appointed Emperor was returning home, and she needed to be ready. But all of her thoughts turned to her encounter with Obi Wan.
`Gods, he still looks so good.' She thought to herself.
As she concentrated harder, trying to become one with the force she was interrupted by a storm trooper.
"Mistress She-ar-ah?" The storm trooper called to her.
"I told you, do not interrupt me when I am in here." She snapped back, not opening her eyes.
"I'm very sorry, but you asked me to inform you when the Emperor was returning." The storm trooper stated nervously.
"Very well, thank you."
"His ship is docking now."
"What?" She-ar-ah's eyes snapped open. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"I..." He began to struggle for breath as if he was choking.
"I'm sure Vader is already there awaiting his arrival." She-ar-ah said snidely as she stared down the trooper. "Well, we'll see who he's happier to see." With that she left the room, leaving her hold on the storm trooper, who collapsed to the floor gasping for air.
Rushing to the landing platform she found the Emperor's ship landing, and Vader waiting patiently. She took her place next to him.
"I was afraid you wouldn't make it." Vader said snidely.
"Well, master doesn't have all of us on a leash." She snapped back.
"No, he has you tied to his bed."
She-ar-ah looked at him, anger began to swell. "Atleast I'm more to him than just a weapon, eh Vader."
The Emperor began to come down the ramp of his ship, Vader and She-ar-ah knelt before him.
"Yes you're right, you're his whore." Vader put in the last word as the Emperor came to them.
"Rise my friends." The Emperor commanded.
"Master!" She-ar-ah ran to him, giving him a kiss. "I've missed you."
"As I you." He then turned his attention to Vader. "You did well my young apprentice, I hear the Jedi are no longer a threat."
"Yes my master, but there is a matter of concern, we have yet to find Kenobi." Vader answered, getting to his feet.
"Kenobi? I'm tired of that name." Palpatine complained.
She-ar-ah turned to her master to try and change the subject. "Master, I'm sure you're weary from your travels."
"Yes, why don't you go to the room, and I'll be there in just a moment, I have something to discuss with Lord Vader."
Knowing if she stayed it would be discovered that she saw the Jedi, she obeyed her master hoping she could find out their plan later.

Later that evening when the Emperor was away at meetings She-ar-ah made her her way to Vader's quarters. Letting herself in she discovered he was out. She began to search his incredibly clean room. She found nothing of interest, infact she found no papers at all. She opened up Vader's enclosure that serves as a way for him to regenerate his power. Inside she found an elaborate computer, along with what she determined to be a life support system. Finally, she found something of interest. She found two pictures. One of the pictures had a beautiful woman of about 24 years old. She-ar-ah had seen the woman before around the Senate. She turned the picture over and read the back. "To my beloved Anakin, so I will always be with you. Love, you're Angel." She-ar-ah read outloud. "Anakin?" That name sounded so familiar to her. She looked at the second picture; it was crumpled and ratted, as if Vader had looked at it many times. As she opened the picture she discovered it was of Obi Wan Kenobi standing with a taller, younger Jedi. She finally remembered why the name Anakin sounded so familiar. She remembered her master calling Anakin Skywalker Kenobi's apprentice. She had heard that Obi Wan had killed his apprentice during a horrible battle, because Anakin was turning to the dark side, just about the same time Vader showed up. A smirk came across her face.
Returning to his quarters, Vader was surprised to find She-ar-ah sitting on his bed.
"Get out." He commanded.
"Oh Lord Vader, I know we have our differences, but we should find a way to work together." She said, moving to her feet.
"Get out." He commanded again.
"We're not that different, you and me. When you first came here I was jealous of you, but we come from similar backgrounds." She said as she slinked towards him.
"What do you mean?" Vader asked impatiently.
"Our master saved both of us after we left the Jedi." She came closer to him. "Right Anakin?"
Vader moved Quickly away. "Anakin Skywalker is dead."
"You're right, killed by the one he trusted most."
"What do you want She-ar-ah?" Vader asked, trying to change the subject.
"I want what you want." She started to move towards him again. "To rule the galaxy."
"What?" Vader became curious.
"Vader, we have both been betrayed by those we trust most. What's to stop our new master from doing the same?" She ran her hand up his arm. "We are strong with the force lord Vader, together we can defeat the Emperor and rule the galaxy." Her hand moved to the latch on his helmet. "Just think, we will be our own masters, we'll start a new order." She began to remove his helmet. He grabbed her arm and quickly threw her to the ground. He then latched his helmet back on and stared at her a moment.
"I could tell him you know." Vader finally said.
"Go ahead, he'd never believe you over me." She-ar-ah snapped back.
"It's so easy to see." Vader continued.
"What are you talking about?"
"The boy looks just like his father, only a fool like our master can't see it. I could tell him, then where would your precious son be?" Vader continued to stare at her. "Keep in mind She-ar-ah, I have black mail, so I'm in charge now." Not another word was spoken, and he turned and left. She-ar-ah let out a sigh of relief, she then noticed the bruise on her arm.
"Very well Vader, if it's a war you want."
