Luke knew that this was eventually going to come out. Luke and Anakin regarded each other, Luke looked down at his feet and then glanced back at the captain. "Yes, he is my father."

Manchisco thought it over, "What about Leia is she your child as well." She addressed Vader.

He nodded to confirm it, "Yes she is my daughter. I would appreciate it if you did not say anything. Am I clear?"

Manchisco nodded, "Crystal clear sir." She walked to a landspeeder, full of alliance soldiers that had come down for shore leave."

Luke and Anakin headed over to a holo transmission comm, they were going to give a report off to the flurry, //follow Commander Thanas's instructions. Commander Skywalker.// He dialed up the codes to the apartment..

------------------------------------------------------------------

Leia was in her bedroom when a tall glowing figure in brown robes appeared. She glanced at the figure,. "Who are you and what are you doing in my apartment?"

Obi Wan walked over to her, "I am Obi Wan Kenobi."

Leia suddenly felt shy as she asked, "What are you doing here?"

Obi Wan answered. "Leia, you have to let your father and brother train you in the ways of the jedi."

Leia was confused. "Why?"

Obi Wan met Leias questioning look. He replied, "It is a part of your destiny. Keep your fathers lightsaber by your side, you will need it."

Leia thought it over; she felt the truth behind it. "Ok, I will let them train me." She said with determination.

Obi Wan folded his hands, "I am pleased to hear it. I have a message for Luke, tell him that fear is of the darkside."

Leia nodded, "I will relay the message to him."

Obi Wan smiled before he disappeared he said, "Thank you, and may the force be with you."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------

Leia walked out into the main living area, Han and her mother regarded her. "Who was in your room?" Padme asked.

Leia shook her head as she relayed to them what the jedi master told her.

Padme shook her head in amazement, "I didn't know that Jedi could come back from the dead like that. I am pleased to hear you want to start your training as well. I'm sure that Anakin and Luke would love to train you."

Leia nodded, she knew that they would be thrilled to hear this. The holo comm. was beeping for attention. She looked over at Han; she was not presentable. "Could you get that?"

Han looked her up and down, "What?" Leia asked.

Han shook his head, "Nothing, you look beautiful."

Leia blushed, "Just answer it."

Han walked over; Luke was on the other end. "Luke? What's up?"

Leia walked into the transmission field. "Report Commander."

Luke shook his head, " Nereus paid some people to watch over pad twelve, when two calamaris came down, they thought that they were Ssi ruuk, between Vader and I we were able to get the situation under control."

Han nodded, "Sounds like you did ok kid."

Luke quickly added, "with a silver lightsaber, and Vader standing there, it did not take much to get both sides attention."

Leia asked not sure she wanted know but had to hear it. "Were there any people hurt or killed?"

Luke shook his head, "No, we were lucky. We are on our way back to the apartment."

Leia was relieved to hear this, "Ok, we will see you when you get here." She felt for Luke's present, what she felt, left her cold. She remembered hearing her father walk into his room last night. Luke broke the transmission before she was able to ask him about it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------

When Luke and Anakin entered the apartment, Leia told Luke the message from Obi Wan. He nodded in understanding. Gaeriels fear of him. He would have to make time to talk to her about it.

Leia continued, "And another thing, I want to start my training. Obi Wan told me it is a part of my destiny."

Anakin was pleased to hear this. "We will start your training this morning."

Han sent Chewie off to go and check on the Falcon to make sure no one had touched her.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------

Anakin asked Leia, "Do you have the lightsaber on you?" Leia nodded as she took it off her belt. "Good, activate it." Anakin said. She did as the red blade shot out with a snap hiss. She felt weird wielding her fathers old lightsaber. But she also felt a connection to him that she never noticed before.

Anakin walked over and picked up his remote that he always carried on him these days. He used TK, to activate it and hold it in the air. "Let go all you have learned, open yourself to the force and let your inner voice be your guide." Anakin instructed her.

Leia listened to her fathers voice, as she began to lose herself. The remote came at her with no warning, she went to deflect the stinger, she was a fraction too slow, and she was hit on the leg, and fell to her knees. She quickly deactivated the lightsaber. Anakin walked up to Leia and offered her his hand, Leia took it as she felt the effects ware off.

"Lets try that one again." Anakin told her. Leia reactivated the lightsaber.

"Close your eyes, do not think, and listen to your inner voice." She stopped swaying, the remote closed in again,

An image popped into her head as if she had not closed her eyes. "I can see the remote." Leia said.

"Good." Anakin replied. The remote came fast. She turned and pivoted into the attack and warded the bolts off.

When the remote froze, she opened her eyes, and almost could swear that her father was grinning. She returned the smile.

The smiled quickly died as the remote closed back in. Leia quickly deflected the bolts and proved that she was a quick study. After ten minutes of this, Anakin decided to call for a break. She deactivated her lightsaber. Leia walked over to where Han, and Luke were standing off to the side. She glanced at her mother; she could not mistake the pride in her eyes as Padme watched them. Leia knew that she had begun to bond with her father. She thought that she never would, but guess she was wrong.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------

Anakin thought over the next part to teach her, the force was pulling him to teach her lightsaber fighting techniques. So he decided to have the group walk outside where they could get some extra room, so there were no accidents.

Leia was curious as to why he wanted to move outside, her question was answered when he turned and told her that he wanted to teach her some basic fighting techniques. //Ready, Anakin asked his daughter through the force.

//I am ready master. Leia replied. Telepathy was not that hard.

Anakin activated his silver lightsaber, and turned it on to the lowest setting. He told Leia to activate her lightsaber and showed her which button to turn the lightsaber down. Leia did as she was asked.

Anakin stood at guard ready, and instructed Leia to stand at classic answer. He turned to Luke, "Luke show her how." Luke acknowledged as he activated his emerald green lightsaber. He stood at classic answer as Leia copied Luke's stance.

Anakin moved towards Leia, and crisscrossed his lightsaber with hers.

//open yourself up to the force and let your inner voice be your guide, you will be able to tell the next move I will go to. Anakin told her.

//Yes master Leia acknowledged. She opened herself to the force and felt her fathers presence, she felt the pain he had gone through, the darkness he had endured for the past twenty-four years. She also felt deep regret about hurting his family the way he did, it was slowly killing him. She felt like telling him that she did forgive him, but she felt that it was too soon. Leia felt what her father was about to do, she swept down and blocked the blow. He came around for another attack, she circled up high overhead and blocked it. Leia pushed out her sphere of responsibility and noticed that there was a crowd that was beginning to form around them; she felt curiosity mixed in with fear, as her father trained her in the ways of the jedi.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------

Anakin took that small distraction; he wanted to see if his daughter was really paying attention, he swept down to her side.

Leia felt her father flicker again and her lightsaber swept down to her side and deflected his lightsaber away.
