:Chapter Five – Returning:

Naboo – 6:35am. Theed City – Transportation Department.

"I'm so tired…" Anakin said rubbing his eyes groggily. The entire building smelt of plastic and cleaning liquid and he and his family, along with Obi-Wan had been waiting in there for over an hour. He couldn't see how servicing the Senator's transport had to take so long; he was sick and tired of the horrible smell and found it hard to control the waves of nausea. Padme was massaging her temples; "I think I've got a headache from this smell…" she said. Luke and his sister looked up at her. "Can we go wait outside? I don't like this building" Luke questioned.

"Why was the journey scheduled to start so early Senator?" Obi-Wan asked, he didn't seem to be bothered by the smell or the long wait. He just looked a bit peeved form being woken up around four after a late night.

"I'm sorry but the Senate really needs me on this one" Padme said, "We'll return as soon as possible"

"No worries; I must speak with council" Obi-Wan replied; "Anakin won't need me to watch him once he's in the Jedi Temple"

"I don't need you to watch me" Anakin said looking up at Obi-Wan.

"How's the nausea going Anakin?" Obi-Wan asked innocently.

"How I must hate you…" Anakin said placing his head in his hands; "I need to be sick…"

"Senator" a Nubian guard approached them; "Your transport is ready…"

They boarded the starship and were greeted by the nose friendly smell of recently sprayed room fragrance. Anakin decided to go exploring after take-off; if he sat still all he did was fidget. It was a fairly large ship, one room stored many repair droids and the others were living quarters and control rooms. With a rather inward sigh, Anakin sat down in a one corner and let his mind do the wandering.

He shivered, he was cold. He was cold on the flight to Naboo and he was cold now, he just didn't want to say anything. No seemed to want to say anything on that flight. He liked being warm, he liked it much more than being cold. He wasn't sure why though, it just seemed right to be nice and warm instead of freezing to death. "Ani?" that lovely voice interrupted his mind.

"Padme…"

"Are you alright?"

He looked down for a moment, "I'm very cold"

Padme smiled and took a blanket from a rack and sat down next to him, opening up the blanket she covered them both and cuddled against him. "So far you can only remember Tatooine; it's very warm there. A little too warm for my taste. Space is a very cold place Ani…"

He noticed something around her neck, a necklace he had seen her wear on a number of occasions. Only now he took time to study it; it was obviously had made, carved from some sturdy material.

"Here…I made this for you…"

"You don't need this to remember me do you?"

"This? I wear it all the time Ani. I know you made it with the all the love in your heart…"

He smiled and looked at her lovingly. "Warm now?" she asked with a cheeky smile.

"Yes…"

Corusant – 8:01am. Jedi Temple – Archives.

Anakin was told to wait, explore if he wished. Padme had to go talk with the Chancellor and Obi-Wan had to speak urgently with the council. The archives looked interesting enough although many young padawans looked at him with large frightened eyes. He tried to ignore this but only found that many more Jedi were staring at him.

They were whispering to each other, pointing and staring as if he was some animal behind bars. Trying further to ignore this, he walked on until he was confronted by a young female padawan learner.

"Go back to the Sith Skywalker;" she said spitefully, "We know what you were going to do if you beat Master Kenobi! So many think you're some sacred Chosen One but what after you pulled I see you as nothing but a monster!"

Anakin was taken-aback. He didn't know what she was talking about and her words seemed so direct and hateful. Everyone was silent and a group of younglings stood looking at him with fear. "I don't know what happened…I'm sorry"

"Being sorry won't help…"

"Tera" the stern voice of a Jedi Master stopped the girl before she could say anything else; "He doesn't remember…"

"Oh…but Master, it doesn't change what he did…" Tera said still sounding angry.

"Can you give me answers…No one will tell me what happened to me and why…"

"The old Senate offices…"

Corusant – 8:10am. Jedi Temple – Council Chamber.

"His memory is slowly returning" Obi-Wan stated, "He knows of his life on Tatooine…"

Yoda nodded; "Bring him here, talk with him we will…"

DUN DUN DUN! Cliffy! Now I know you guys all hate me for these…but still REVIEWS! Please and Thankyou…
