Ok, since no one has thrown tomatoes at me yet, I'm going to go ahead
and put up the second chapter (and yes, it's about Anakin). It's really
short.I was going to put it in with the third chapter but the third chapter
ended up being kinda long.oh well. Enjoy!

Anakin Skywalker walked through the hallways of the cloning facility on Kamino, quietly observing and half-listening to what Taun We was saying. Around him were millions of clones, ranging in age from those still in their pods to those being sent into battle at that very moment. Each was a perfect likeness of the original, a bounty hunter named Jango Fett, who had been killed almost two years ago by Jedi Master Mace Windu. //He deserved to die,// thought Anakin, //for trying to kill my wife.// And it was true; the Jedi had discovered that he had been behind the assassination attempts on Senator Amidala. //Senator Skywalker. When will she be able to use her real name?// Anakin sighed as his thoughts dwelled again on his wife, Padme Amidala Skywalker. It had been months since he had seen her last, when she had been in Coruscant at an important Senate meeting. And even then, he hadn't had much time with her away from the watchful eyes of his Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi. //Or the eyes of the Council. Whoever is more dangerous.//
"We are trying to accelerate the growth process as much as we can, due to the need of troops for battle. So far, not much progress has been made."
Taun We's voice snapped Anakin back to reality, and to the mission at hand. "We're losing troops fast on the front lines," he replied, "Any acceleration at all would be helpful." It was true.he and Obi-Wan had been at the front lines a week earlier, and it wasn't a pretty sight.
Taun We nodded. "If we only had our original host.we could create more."
Anakin turned to face her. "I don't believe there is anything more I can do here. The Jedi Council will be in contact with you, as always." He bowed low to Taun We, who nodded, and walked toward the exit of the building. //Obi-Wan never told me this place was so huge.// Suddenly, the Force surged through him. Something was wrong.someone was in danger. //Padme.and Obi-Wan.something's happened to them.// He ran as fast as he could toward the exit doors, pulling them open with a wave of his hand, and raced out to the landing pad where his ship lay.
"Artoo!" he yelled through the rain, jumping into his ship's cockpit, "Take us back to Coruscant. Hurry!"
R2D2 gave a shrill whistle as the ship hummed to life and took off for the capital.
