Anakin watches Obi-wan run far off to fight again, wishing he never told
him the truth; but now he is too busy worrying about Padme'. She is dying,
he has to help her; so he runs and catches up with Mara.
Mara glances at him once, "What do you want?"
"Will she be alright?" he asks eagerly.
"I can't tell; I have to find a place first to rest."
"I know a spot."
"Alright, but know this, I don't trust you but since my friend is wounded badly, I'll follow." He understood her warning well, so he nods back. He leads her to some near by trees and shrubs, which hides a spot to rest. Mara laid Padme down, watching her taking small breaths of air.
Anakin takes his hand and caresses Padme's pale cheek, "Stay with me Padme'."
Mara stares at him confused but went back to examining Padme'.
"She's dying, the blow damaged some of her organs badly." Says Mara looking sadly at her poor friend.
"There has to be way." Says Anakin looking back at Mara.
"Sith Lords can't heal." She looks at him as she said those words.
"But Jedi can." He stares back at Padme', she is fading fast. He laid his hands on her wound and asks help from The Force. It denies him of his wish, but then it reads Padme's signature. The Force helps him immediately!
The power surges through his body, he is connected to Padme' now, he can feel her pain attacking her very soul. It brought him excruciating pain; Padme's wound is vanishing slowly but quickly away. She awakes immediately as Anakin collapses from the pain.
"Padme'!" Mara embraces her friend.
"What happened?"
"Well I was led here by a Jedi and he healed you." Padme' follows Mara's stare to Anakin.
"Ani!" she holds Anakin tightly feeling his breath, she is thankful he is still alive.
"You two can't be-" Padme's stare at her told her the truth.
"How can you do something like this? He's a Jedi and your Sith Lord."
"I know, but I love him Mara."
"Do you think the Emperor will care? If he finds out he'll forbid you or worse he may kill you or the Jedi
Padme' couldn't show the emotions she is feeling, there are too many; all she could do was tear a little but not letting her self cry out.
"We should give Anakin to the other Jedi." Says Padme' changing the subject, wiping her tears away.
"How are we going to do that?"
"Anakin!" yells Lucas suddenly.
"Hurry! Hide!" whispers Padme'.
Lucas reaches to where they were, and sees Anakin unconscious on the ground.
"Anakin are you alright?"
Anakin's only response was a moan; he wasn't all the way awake yet.
Lucas helps him up, and rushes out to the other Jedis.
"Lucas, what happened to Anakin?" asks Master Windu worried.
"I don't know sir, but Anakin will be walking up shortly, I'm sure he'll be able to answer." Answered Lucas.
"Bring him to the hospital wing to rest." Orders Master Windu.
"Yes Master." Lucas walks up the ramp and inside the ship.
************************************************************************
Anakin lay on the bed, thinking about Padme', hoping she was all right. Anakin's eyes starts to move, he raises his eyelids slowly at first, and then keeping them open. He sat up slowly, as he was waking up completely. His attention is caught, he could heard talking outside the door. He got up and listened:
"What are we going to do about Anakin being in love with Darth Amidala, Master Yoda?" asked Obi-Wan.
"Bad things I can't see, bumpy road I do."
"But she is a Sith Lord, Master."
"Know that I do, When awakes he will forbid him from this; Padawan he still is."
"Yes Master."
"Wishes to speak with us, Master Windu does." says Yoda; he then walked away, limping holding his cane with Obi-Wan following next to him.
Anakin stood at the door thinking, they are going to forbid him from seeing her, Padme'.
'I can't be kept away from my Padme', it's not possible for me; I couldn't bear to be with out her even if it means death.' He thought.
He opened the door a little more, enough for him to poke his head out; he looked left and right making sure no one was in the hallways. He ran swiftly but quietly to outside, he got to his speeder, but still making sure no one could see him. He hopped on and drove away to the town again racing against the falling suns.
********************************************************
"Darth Amidala, I understand you we did better in the battle, did progress go well?" asks the Emperor.
"Yes master, it went well, we killed more Padawans as you ordered." She keeps her head bowed, it is too hard for her to keep an expression off her face, but she is thankful to still be able to keep her mind barriers up.
"I heard you were injured, is that true?"
"Yes master but I am in good health."
"Good, good, you may leave." He says moving his hand as a signal.
She bows and walks away almost out the door.
"But strange it is-" he begins causing Padme' to stop and turn around.
"What is Master?"
"That you healed in such a short time; if I am correct that Sith Lords can't heal themselves or others?" he said raising an eyebrow.
"Yes that is correct Master." Her head still bowed down.
"But Jedi can."
Padme' shot her head up confused at his words.
"Darth Sidious told me an interesting report on your injury."
"Master, what he said is not-"
"True? Oh but Darth Amidala, it is and you know it. That day you went to that club wasn't scouting, it was for a good time wasn't it?"
"Master please I was only-"
"Don't lie to me!" he yelled standing up.
"I don't tolerate being lied to, especially by my most trusted, and most powerful ones. Amidala, Padme', why do something like this? Why throw your life away?" he asks sternly.
"Master I'm not-"
"I can't bear any more. You are forbidden to see him, and that's final."
Padme's eyes glazes over, she drops her head again, "Yes Master." is all she could say, She leaves the room with her sorrow close behind.
Mara follows her, afterwards, to her dorm room.
"Padme'?" she knocks on the door; there was no answer.
"I, I know your upset Padme' but, you need to move on, you know you can't be with him." As she leaned against the door, it suddenly opened. She peeked in and saw Padme' was nowhere to be seen. But there was a letter on the bed; she picked it up and read.
Mara,
By the time you read this I'll be gone; I have gone to town to meet Anakin. This will our last night together, I will follow my orders from then on.
Padme'
***************************************************************************
Padme' rides as fast as the wind flew, racing the rain clouds approaching the town. She didn't care if it is going to rain; all she wants to do is see Anakin again. She follows his force signature leading to town, she never really told him that she was coming; she knew his master would read her telepathic message. She parked; the rain came down lightly on her soft skin. She saw him, he was sitting against a wall of a bar, hiding from the rain, from life.
She runs to him, with the rain hitting her face like needles. At this point he could see her now, he stood up ready to be embraced. She hugs him tightly, dripping on him, causing him to get wet.
"I had to see you again. I am forbidden to see you, but I had to come anyway, to stay with you one last time."
"We should make this worth while." He smiles at her removing droplets of rain from her face.
Their faces neared kissing lightly, but then deeply.
Well, I dare not say more but, I will tell you one thing, they get a hotel room. Wink*
