ok.. see here it is!

4 Months Later
Four months had gone by and Anakin still hadn't seen Padme even once. Everyday he was alone and glum. His friends tried their best to make him smile, but nothing would work. His lips wouldn't even try to for the infamous smile they were almost always captured in when Padme was around. All he could do was think about Padme, he thought he would atleast seen her in class or passing in the hallways, but after she left she dropped her classes and only left her quarters when necessary.
A few days before he had received a message from Obi-Wan and Starr, who was definitely showing her pregnancy. Anakin had been worried about his Master before he received a message, but now he was just worried about himself. He didn't know if he could go very long in his state of mind without someone to lean on. Obi-Wan had informed him that the Council was having him and Starr take care of small arguments taking place on the planet they were hiding out on. Anakin noticed that Obi-Wan "forgot to mention" that detail.
Once Obi-Wan had filled him in, Anakin decided he should tell Obi-Wan of the happenings of him and Padme. When he finished he was far beyond shocked, and he could tell that Starr was on the rim of breaking down. The sorrow she felt was beyond mention. They have been through too much Starr thought regretfully.
Obi-Wan could just stare into the projector. He wanted so much to be there to help his Padawan through the pain that he was going through, but he knew it wasn't his place. It was something Anakin would have to do on his own. He also knew that the Council would want Anakin to work through it on his own. It was a trail he was going to have to face. He just hoped that Anakin was strong enough to do it on his own.
When Anakin ended the transmission he felt terrible. It felt as if the whole ordeal happened all over again. He was about to go to the waterfalls to meditate and get his mind off memories when he saw the flashing light coming off of his comm unit that had found its place on the kitchen table. He had a message.
He silently wished it was from Padme, but he knew better. She wouldn't send him a message after all this time. He walked across and carefully picked up the flashing object.
He flipped the switch and a fuzzy voice slowly began to fill the deafening silence that had taken over the room. Once in full quality he finally recognized the voice that the messaging was revealing. It was Healer Serra
Padawan Skywalker, I have some news for you. The voice spoke with excellent precision. We have managed to get a sample of.... The Healer paused, choosing her words carefully. The child that your wife carries DNA. I would like you to come down as soon as possible to give a sample of your own blood for comparison. The sooner your come down, the sooner we figure all this out.
The message faded out and it left of with a fuzzy haze before it finally went silent and the red light stopped flashing. Anakin flipped the switch back and clipped the comm unit to his belt. He decided that he should go as soon as possible. He was tired of waiting, but he was also dreading the outcome. He finally decided to head to the healers. The sooner the better right?
On his way there he figured out exactly what was going to be happening other than the fate of the rest of his life. NEEDLES. If there was anything in the world that he was afraid of other than destiny, it was needles. And he had a feeling he would be bathing in them for the rest of the afternoon.
********** When Anakin walked into the Healers he noticed that there was no one other than him and Healer Serra in the ward. It gave him little if no comfort, but atleast no one else would be able to hear he screams of pain.
As soon as the Healer walked out from the back she could see the nervous sweat and fidgetiness that Anakin was portraying. She quickly took Anakin to the back room, keeping Padme's secret away from Anakin for as long as possible.
"So quiet?" Anakin asked trying to lighten the mood, mostly for his own comfort.
"Not soon...." The Healer hinted towards a machine in the far left corner of the room. Anakin recognized that machine. Obi-Wan had told him many things about it, and the things he heard weren't good. In fact he had even named it The Blood Sucker. It was normally a machine made for donating blood, but this was an exception. For they needed lots of blood from him now. And he knew exactly what it was going to do!
The machine would insert five needles into a small area of his arm just below his elbow. Three needles would suck up the blood into the machine, and there the blood cells would be separated. The red blood cells would be kept and sucked into the 4 awaiting vials on the side of the machine, while the white blood cells were put back into his blood stream. That's where the other two needles came in, and it was gunna hurt like hell.
Anakin looked down at the machine, it looked so... So... So.. Harmless.. Yea right! But he had to do it. He had to know if it was his child. But a sudden feeling of dread swept over his body, not only was he deathly afraid of needles, but once he stuck his arm into the machines awaiting device he didn't know when the needles would stick him. That was a terrifying thought.
"Ok, now once this is over..." The Healer paused allowing Anakin to sit in the awaiting chair in front of "The Blood Sucker"
"I want you to go straight to bed." The Healer continued. "You are going to be very tired, so another words no driving or operating heavy machinery." The Healer added with a smirk, she was beginning to sound like a prescription label.
Her smile widened as she remember hearing how big Anakin was on getting speeding violations, and that she knew he would want to test his strength driving when he was finished here.
"Nah....." Anakin puffed out his chest and flexed his upper arm. "Messa Jedi!! This wont have an effect one me!!!"
The Healer could tell he was nervous by the constant joking and nervous voice, do she decided to stay her ground. "Jedi or not, Chosen one or not... You will be knocked out after this. Maybe you are the "Chosen One" to be knocked out more..."
After waiting for Anakin to reply and with no conclusion she ended the debate, she knew Anakin just wanted the whole ordeal over with. "Now stick your arm in that device there." She pointed to the hollowed cylinder that looked like the ones on the blood pressure reading machines.
Anakin stared at the hole hesitantly but then rolled up his sleeve and dove his left arm in, flinching as he felt the think fabric that lined the inside scrape his skin.
"Ok now stay still, I'm going to tie this around your upper arm." The healer stretched out a long thick rubber band like string. "Now this may hurt, its gunna be tied tight to cut of the circulation of the blood in your arm, ok?"
He simply nodded and before he knew it the rubber band was tied tightly around his arm and his heart was pounding with unexplainable fear. His muscles tensed and ached as he felt the think cloth began to slowly tighten around his nervously shaking arm. His throat automatically went dry as he felt the machine make one last squeeze on his arm, and sweat began to form below his hairline, dreading what was next.
"Ok....." The Healer gave him and evil smile and suddenly he didn't feel to good. She push the large red button on the side of the machine, it beeped and then the worst happened.....
"HOLY SITH-SPIT!!!!!!!!!!!!" Anakin screamed, using better nature words but still screaming at the top of his lungs. He suddenly realized that this was the reason Obi-Wan always yelled "Bloody Hell!" through their Master/Padawan bond when he took trips to the Healer.
"This is assault... And ... and.. Battery..... And... And... ATTEMPTED MURDER!!!!!!" Anakin yelled at the Healer who was now backing away and cracking up with laughter. She never imagined that the "Chosen One" would have such a weakness.
Anakin watched in pain and horror as the once clean and empty vials began to fill with his deep crimson blood.
"If you don't make this thing stop, I wont have enough blood for myself!!!!!!" He yelled at the Healer again. "THAT'S MANSLAUGHTER!!!!!"
He made a slight lung for the Helaer as if he was going to attack her, but then just looked back at the machine and he noticed that the second tall vile was full and the blood slowly began to fill the third. With every ounce of blood he felt leave his body he could feel himself getting weaker and weaker. His arm had long ago gone frozen from the loss of blood and he winced in pain when he felt the needles nudge deeper into his vein and the slowly retract from his arm. The 4 vials on the machine were completely filled and he felt the cloth loosen from around is lower arm and he quickly got out of his seat and backed away.
The Healer followed him away and untied the rubber band as Anakin stared at the machine in a daze. as the rubber band shot off the blood rushed through his veins like an out of control forest fire. His fingers filled with the once normal color and his whole body burned with pain.
Suddenly he had a migraine.
