Anakin angrily threw clothing into his open suitcase as Obi-wan watched him from the doorway. Anakin had an evil glitter in his eye and Obi- wan had no trouble sensing his anger.

"Where are you going Anakin?" Obi-wan asked in a concern voice, as Anakin never broke his stride to answer.

"I'm going to find whoever Cyu's boss was, he's going to pay for what he made Cyu do to Padme."

"Anakin slow down and try to sense Padme, she is still alive but scared. You still have time to save her." Obi-wan told Anakin.

"Why should I believe you? You were against me just like everyone else! I don't trust you anymore even if you are my master." Anakin snapped closing the lid of his suitcase.

Obi-wan stood stunned as Anakin faced him with a scowl. He saw now that Anakin had gone beyond his control and would never be able to use the light side of the force again. The boy had always been drifting to the dark side and there was no cure for his destiny.

"Very well Anakin, you have my permission to leave." Obi-wan granted as Anakin took his suitcase in his hand.

"Good cause I would have left even with out your permission Obi-wan." Anikin declared going for the door.

"I know you would have Anakin, you've become overcome by your anger."

"Stop trying to change my mind, I am going to seek revenge on the man who ordered the death of Padme." Anakin snapped leaving the room.

"You'll never come back though.good bye young Skywalker." Obi-wan whispered to himself as a tear rolled down his cheek and wet his beard.

Yoda watched as Anakin walked passed him in the hallway and sensed what he was about to do. He shook his green head in disapproval but did not speak because he knew there was nothing left to save Anakin from his anger.

~ Padme sat on the cold floor holding her stomach tightly as she watched the hooded figure sitting at his desk with his eyes closed. She couldn't understand what he was doing but she knew he was up to no good. "Why do you hold your stomach like that?" the hooded man asked still not opening his eyes.

Padme shrunk back to the wall still holding her stomach protectively and answered, "I'm just hungry that's all."

"I see.if you wait just another ten minutes your Anakin should be here. I have sent someone to find him and bring him here. He has let his anger take over his thoughts and is ready to come to the dark side."

"He'll still never convert, he's smarter than that." Padme declared

"No my dear, he was smarter than that." Laughed the hooded man.

Anakin walked into a bar and looked around and found a seat over in the corner. He had been looking all day for any lead and had found nothing. His temper flared as a girl approached him. She was dressed in normal padawan clothing that was blue and had brown hair and brown eyes.

"Your Anakin aren't you?" she asked sitting down across from him.

"What's it to you?" Anakin asked suspiciously.

"I heard you were looking for the Dark Lord Sidious."

"Yeah? And?"

"I know where he is, in fact he told me to come and find you. Seems to me he has something that you want." The brown haired girl tempted.

"Padme." Anakin whispered aloud as the girl nodded.

"So are you going to come with me?"

"Can I trust you?" Anikin asked.

"Since when do you need trust? It's Padme and I have been your only lead so far."

"Fair enough, lead me to her now." Anikin demanded.

"Certainly, just doing my job. You know it will be a pleasure working with you, it's the reason why I took this job." The padawan smiled leading him out of the bar. "Huh?" Anakin asked confused but she had already sped off in her speeder. He rushed to his speeder and kicked it into gear and followed after her.

Anakin stopped behind the padawan at a dark building that shot up into the black sky that was clouded over with deep gray clouds. He shuddered at the site of the pyramid looking building that was red and looked old and warn.

"This way and watch your step, the stairs aren't what they use to be." The girl warned walking up some stone steps.

Anakin followed close behind and entered a room filled with black marble. The then stepped into an elevator tube that shot them into another part of the building.

"We are now in the main office go through those golden doors." Instructed the padwan as Anakin stepped out of the tube into another black marble room with golden doors out in front of him. Each step he took echoed off the walls as he approached the golden doors. The doors opened by them selves as Anakin went into a completely dark room.

"Hello?" Anakin asked as his voice answered him back. The doors slammed behind him as the lights snapped on and the hooded man sitting in his desk became visible.

"Hello Anakin Skywalker." The hooded figured greeted.

"So you're the one, you sent Cyu to kill Padme." Anakin accused taking his light saber out from his belt.

"You're right about sending Cyu to kill Padme but he didn't kill her." The hooded figured explained as he waned his hands and lights flashed on to show Padme chained to the wall frightened, "I have better use for her now."

"Padme!"

"Anakin! Don't do anything he wants!" Padme screamed as the hooded figured waved his hand again and shocked Padme.

"Hey stop that now!" Anakin demanded clicking his saber on.

"Or what? You slice me in half? I doubt it. We can do this like civilized people if you'd like or I could kill her now."

"What do you mean by civilized?" Anakin asked.

"I let Padme go."

"What's the catch?"

"You work for me." The hooded figured told Anakin.

"Convert to the dark side, never." Anakin hissed.

"Alright, well I guess I will kill Padme then cause she is no use to me." The hooded figure thought aloud.

"Don't you touch her."

"You can't save her boy, you're just a padawan. Weak because Obi-wan never trained you and you were to wrapped up in your secret marriage to Padme."

"Take that back." Anakin snapped.

"Come on Skywalker, just try to hurt me." The hooded figure taunted.

Anakin charged after the hooded figure but just as he lifted his light saber the hooded figure shocked him backwards. Anakin flew back letting his light saber fly out of his hand and skid over by the opposite wall.

"You can't win Skywalker, give it up." The figure told Anakin as he got to his feet.

"Don't listen to him Anakin.please." Padme pleaded, as she was shocked again.

"Stop it!!" Anakin yelled kneeling down next to padme and taking her chin in his hands.

"Anakin save yourself I'll be fine they can't kill me." Padme said slowly looking at his crystal blue eyes.

"No that would be selfish of me, I came here to save you not hurt you. I could never live with myself if I just left with out knowing you'd be ok." Anakin told Padme stroking her hair lightly.

"Anakin there is something I haven't told you." Padme told Anakin while resting her chin on his shoulder. "I am pregnant."

"A baby? My baby?" Anakin stuttered unable to think.

"Yes your baby.we finally can have a family." Padme smiled.

"No, I want you to take care of that baby. Let it know that it did have a father but he had to protect his family." Anakin instructed as he placed a gentle hand on Padme's stomach to feel the baby kick at his hand.

"No Anakin.you can't." Padme sobbed her eyes filling with tears.

"Let the baby know I did love it and never forget I will always love you." Anakin said as he kissed Padme on the lips gently. He then got up off his knees and walked back over to the hooded figure.

"Are you ready to reconsider Anakin?" The hooded man asked.

"Yes, I will convert if you promise never to bring harm to my wife or my baby." Anakin bargained.

"Done." The hooded figured replied as the chain was released from Padme. She got up and flung her arms around Anakin.

"No I won't let you do this! I can't live with out you Anakin! Please don't leave me." Padme sobbed.

Anakin hugged Padme tightly and whispered, "I will be fine Padme. I will always be with you no matter what."

Padme was then pried away from Anakin by some padawans and escorted out of the main office. Padme kept turning around looking at Anakin. Her whole world spun in her tears and she could feel her heart breaking slowly splashing down with every teardrop. She placed her hand on her stomach and could have sworn her baby was crying along with her.

Anakin watched Padme walk out of his life and even if he knew he had made the right choice he still regretted it. He would miss Padme's warm smile and touch but he could sleep better knowing that she was safe and that his child was safe also. He had sent his heart back with Padme and his unborn child because now he had no heart; he only felt the cold dark evil take over his body as he began his new life of destruction.
