*~*~*~*~*

"Blood is thicker than water"

My blood...

That's what you are.

You, who struck fear into every heart in the galaxy.

Darth Vader, dark lord of the Sith Order...

You are my father... or at least you must have been... once.

But you were never a father to me, Vader. Or a least not in anyway that it counts. You never were the one to swing me around in your arms when I was young, or tuck me into bed. You never once kissed me on the cheek and called me 'your little girl.' Hell, I don't even think you were around when Luke and I were born. You were probably to busy being the Emperor's lap dog to even notice or care that you had children.

I loathe you for that you vile half-human half machine.

I HATE YOU VADER!

I hate you because you were the reason mommy was always so sad, because you were the one she would silently cried for in her heart. I hate you because you forced me just to stand back and watch as Tarkin blew up my home... my family... my Alderaan. I hate you because you merciless froze the man I love in carbonite making me almost lose him forever. I hate you for all these things and more Vader.

But most of all I hate you because... I don't... I can't hate you. Even after everything you have done to hurt me and the people I love. I just can't hate you.

I mean you saved Luke from the dark side... you killed the Emperor. You brought balance back to the Force and the galaxy.

In away you scarified yourself to save us all Vader.

So I don't hate you Lord Vader... Anakin... Father. I just don't. Who knows maybe in my own way I love you?

But I know one thing for sure father. You are constantly with me... flowing though me... because your my blood.
