"Anakin" Obi-Wan questioned. "What did the message say?" He turned around the corner walking into the Co-pilots chair.

Anakin slumped back and watched the stars whizz be the ship, he always wanted to see the stars when he was younger, and now he wished he could trade them in just to have Padme back in his arms.

"Padme was in it Master." Anakin turned around to face Obi-Wan. His eyes were filled with tears, and they were beginning to get red with anger and fear.

"She was hurt... She said that it's a trick to get me to them, and that I shouldn't come. But it's not Master! I know it! They want her for something... I'm just not sure what." Anakin sniffled a moment and finally gave into his sorrows and buried his head deep in his arms. He relaxed only slightly when Obi-Wan laid a comforting hand on his shoulder.

"Anakin, calm down, we will get her back!" Obi-Wan bent down to his apprentice, "Now tell me, what did the message say, was Sidious in it?"

"Sidious said that he sent his Apprentice... Whoever that is... after us and that he wont kill Padme.." Anakin sniffled... "Yet."

Obi-Wan's eyes filled with emotion, something that he didn't show very often. "I saw Naboo in the backround." Anakin announced when, he thought it was safe to speak again. "I think they are on the outskirts of Theed."

"Yes... I feel it too." Obi-wan admitted sadly.

"Master?" Anakin questioned softly.

"Yes, Anakin?"

Anakin looked up at the stars again and then back to his Master. "What happened between you and Starr?"

"Anakin.. It's none of your business." Obi-Wan turned around trying to avoid the subject."

"Master... What happened? You two were totally avoiding each other."

"We got in an argument. When we were looking for you. I kinda blamed it all on her." Obi-Wan turned back and Anakin could tell that he didn't mean to blame it on her.

"I didn't me too, I just felt so mad." Obi-Wan quickly added, trying not to look so bad.

"Master, it's ok, your just have to let her know that you didn't mean it, I am sure she said some things she didn't mean either." Now Anakin was the one making the comforting words.

"Anakin?!" Obi-Wan turned around.

"Master! Did you feel that? Something bad is around... Something dark." He ran over to the scan on the stars and saw no alert. "Something's wrong.. there is no danger outside the ship."

"Not outside." Obi-Wan stated firmly. "Inside."

He quickly ran over to the transport scan, and it showed that their were four life forms on board.. Not three.

"Four." Obi-Wan said in almost a whisper.

"What?!" Anakin shook him.

"Four." He restated numbly. "There are four life forms on board."

"Sidious's Apprentice!" Anakin scurried to the scan to figure out where the Sith was, he knew Starr was sleeping in the back room sleeping.

"Yes. Where is he?" Obi-Ran over to the control panel.

"Oh, no!"

"What!" Obi-Wan pushed Anakin out of the way. He looked down at the screen and the heat sensor showed TWO forms in the back room, one lying on the bed and the other slowly moving towards the sleeping form.

"Noooooooooooooo!! Starr!!!!!!!!!" Obi-Wan screamed, rushing in the direction of Starr's room with Anakin quick on his tail.

Obi-Wan threw open the door and struggling, trying to get free was Starr in ...... Lyla's arms.

"LYLA!!!!!!" Anakin screamed. "Damn you! You let her go!"

Lyla twisted around and kept Starr in the death grip. Lyla brought up her blood red lightsaber, up to Starr waist, "It looks like its time for one of your friends to die Anakin."





*****

Anakin moved ahead. "Lyla, don't do this."

"Why not?" She answered back, grasping harder at Starr. "You Jedi, have ruined my career with Sidious! All he wants is you guys... And that is the one thing I cannot give him, so he denies me my life!"

"That is no reason to kill a person." Anakin tried to reason with her.



"I am not just killing one person." She urged her lightsaber closer to Starrs abdomen.

"What do you mean Lyla?" Obi-Wan finally stepped forward.

"Well, I am sure that if I killed her, you would die with her, in spirit anyway... Am I right Obi-wan?" Lyla questioned raising her eyebrows.

When Obi-Wan looked down Lyla knew her answer was right. "But, that is not what I mean. There is more to this."

"What is Lyla." Anakin took a step forward.

"Oh you don't know?" Lyla almost looked shocked. Almost. "Starr is with child."

Wh... What... WHAT!?" Obi-Wan burst out.

"What?" Starr also questioned.

"Oh, you didn't know either?" Lyla was now beaming with pride. "Well, aren't I the bearer of great news."

"You can't do this Lyla. You cant kill an unborn child, you don't have it in you, I know it!" Anakin inches forward again.

"Yes, I can, and I will." Lyla raised her lightsaber up so the tip of it was just at Starrs abdomen. Starr screamed in pain as the tip grazed her stomach. Obi-wan was getting fed up. His blood boiling, and his face was proof that he was angry. I can't let her do this... But if I do something she will surly kill her.



"NOOOOO!" Obi-Wan charged forward. "I will not let you do this."

Obi-Wan rammed Lyla so hard Starr fell out of her grip and onto the bed, the graze from the saber was a little deep, but nothing that she wouldn't live through. Obi-Wan on the other hand was now fighting unfairly against Lyla. The alarm on the ship went off signaling that they had arrived at Naboo, and as much as Anakin wanted and need to help Obi-Wan he had to go land the ship. When he left the real fight began.

Obi-Wan had left his lightsaber in the other room. Mistake. He never left without it, but when Starr was around, the only thing he could think about was her, and he saw she was in trouble and left it behind. Now he was blocking Lyla swings jumping around the room, trying to keep her away from going back to Starr. Obi-Wan felt the ship hit ground and was side tracked by the sound of the ramp lowering, just then Lyla got the upper hand and burned his back from the shoulder to opposite waist. He fell to the floor next to Starr grabbing her tightly, so Lyla wound grab her and run.

"Wait here Lyla!" Anakin ran in his lightsaber glowing gallantly.

"NEVER!" She blocked his parry and managed to slide her way and make her way out into the darkened Naboo field, that they landed in. Anakin began to chase after her, when his Master called out to him.

"Anakin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Anakin ran up to his Master and saw they burned flesh that marked his back, so ferociously." Starr... Is she alright?" Obi-Wan asked.

"Yes, Master, you saved her. Just rest.... Your... Your going to be ... all... alright." Anakin sniffled back tears. His Masters wound was bad, and he wasn't exactly sure if he would be alright.

"Heal her first Anakin.. Please?"

"Yes, Master.." Anakin answered as Obi-Wan slipped into the blackness. A small smile crossed his face as the darkness flooded him. He had a child.
