:Chapter Six - Secrets:

Corusant – 10:30am. Jedi Temple – Medic Wing.

Anakin was in the bathroom staring at his reflection in the mirror. There was something on his chest he hadn't noticed before. It was a light line, like a fading scar gashed right across his upper torso. It was obvious it had something to do with what ever caused his amnesia. Sighing he slipped his shirt back on and made his into the room. It was the room he woke in, for some reason he felt safe there. Lying down on the bed he drifted off to sleep.

When he woke Padme was sitting beside him. "Hey" she said quietly as she took his hand, "Why are you down here"

"Didn't really have anywhere else to go"

"What do you mean?"

"It's nothing…" Anakin smiled at her, "Listen…I'm kind of thirsty, do you think we could…"

"No, you stay here. I'll go get you some water…" Padme stood and left the room. After waiting a short while, just be sure she was completely gone, Anakin stood and left the Medical Wing. He had seen a pretty speeder outside, and he was sure he could return it in time.

Corusant – 11:35pm. Old Senate Offices.

The building was tall, desolate and empty. Except for the death stick dealers huddled on the steps, Anakin was alone. It felt good in someway; he wasn't being watched over like some small defenseless child. Avoiding eye-contact with dealers, Anakin made his way up the stairs. The doors had been locked and chained up; obviously the senate didn't want anyone to be here. There was a small hologram by a pillar saying the demolition was scheduled for next month, "I got lots of time" he muttered under his breath.

"Hey chum! Only the smart ones can find a way in!" one of the dealers yelled at him.

Anakin smiled politely at him and turned to walk away. Once he was far enough away he turned to look at the door; it didn't look that strong. He wasn't going to let go of this, not now. He didn't care what Obi-Wan said, he could take care of himself. He was the Chosen One, if not then he was a monster. Now all he had to do was find out.

Anger was beginning to rise within him, the feeling that he could not be trusted. That others were scared of him, that he was lied to. Secrets were kept but he'd discover who did this to him.

"Hey pal! What are you doing!"

'I'm not weak' thought Anakin. He slowly walked towards the door, something was flowing within him and it was strong. It was the force and somehow the force knew Anakin wanted answers, he wasn't thinking of anything but getting those answers. Padme, the Twins, Love, The Jedi Order…all of that didn't matter. He narrowed his eyes and that simple action, broke the chains and blew the doors off their hinges. And then, he felt calm again and upset at the same time. He wasn't sure what that was but he doubted he wanted to go back there.

"Okay man" the death stick dealers were shaking in their cheap boots, "That's cool…you're cool…we're gunna leave now…"

Anakin slowly proceeded into the building.

Corusant – 11:37pm. Jedi Temple.

"He's nowhere in the temple" Obi-Wan said as he, Master Yoda and Mace Windu made their way down a long hallway. "Although the healers said he came and slept in the room he was in during his coma for a long time. And then he just left…"

"A great disturbance in the force, there is…" Yoda said.

"I sensed it too Master…I'm worried for him…"

"Is it possible Anakin could be straying into the Dark Side again?" Mace Windu asked.

"Possible? Happened it has…" Yoda stated. Obi-Wan became instantly distressed by this news, "We have to find him…"

Corusant – 11:39pm. Jedi Temple.

Anakin walked along the halls, the lifts were shut down and so there seemed no way of getting to the upper levels. He continued his walk until he reached a door which lead to the old debate room. It was massive with several round things which were obviously used to keep the diplomatic parties apart. Anakin stepped out into one of them and looked up. Then he leapt onto the one above him, he continued this until he reached one of the highest levels and stepped onto the hall. It was extremely quiet up here; there were empty death stick packages everywhere. Along with other drug containers and bits of litter.

He soon came across a pair of fancy double doors with a dusty label to the left of it which read; "Chancellor's Office Suite"

The doors were partially open and he pushed one to get in.

"Anakin, nice of you to join me"

There was a man, he was clothed entirely in black and stood by a smashed window. He coughed once or twice before leaning against the wall for support, "I've been under threat from the Jedi for a long time. I can give you answers but…"

"Answers?"

"How you got like this…what ever this is that makes you so weak and defenseless…" he coughed again, "Like it or not you are a magnet for those seeking to destroy, but I just want to help…You've been lied to. Kept from this place because it can reveal what happened. What your master did to you…he tired to hurt you like we did…"

Anakin didn't like this, it seemed a bit off. This man carried with him an eerie yet familiar presence and it sent shivers down his spine. He stepped away, "Who are you?"

"My name is Darth Sidious…I believe you've met my apprentice…"

A young female entered the room, it was her; Tera, that girl from the Jedi Temple, Anakin's eyes widened with realization. "You…You're the Sith" he said taking another step back. "You make it sound so bad" Tera said simply.

Anakin turned on his heel and ran out of the room and down the hallway.

"Get him…I want him alive…"

"Yes, my Master" Tera said as headed out after Anakin.

Anakin could feel someone chasing him and was beginning to regret leaving the Jedi Temple. He wondered if he was this stupid and arrogant before his lost his memory. Then he began to feel the force rising within him, it was the same feeling he had before he blew the front doors off. As ran he around a corner in the hall he saw he was heading right for another locked door. Anakin didn't want to venture into the weird dose of power he had earlier, it didn't seem right. But he had no choice, it was either that or the Sith.

"Easier, More Seductive the Dark Side is. Learn to control your link you must, only then can a Jedi be one with the force…"

I have a choice, thought Anakin. He closed his eyes as the footsteps behind him became louder but the doors in front of him un-locked with a click. He barged through them and sprinted down the hallway, he was completely sure where he was going. Then he saw the end of the hallway. It ended with a window, this window wasn't boarded up or anything. He could easily make his escape through that, but the trouble was he was on one of the top floors.

He knew he had fallen before, out of a window. He just couldn't remember when. But his choice was made and then he couldn't remember anything much after it. Just a sharp pain in his neck and jumping out a window, landing on a passing speeder and then…

"Can you help him?" Do I know that voice?

"M'am, if you want us to help your friend you're going to have to stand back…" Who was that? It was female but it wasn't her.

"Load him in" What was going on? Where was he? Where were his friends? What happened to the Sith?

"Padme…" he groaned feeling the pain in his neck become worse when he did so. Something warm was trickling from the pain, warm and thick.

"We've got a male Caucasian, approximate mid-20s. He's loosing a lot of blood…"

Lights?

"Ani?"

"Mom?"

There she was, as clear as could be. She smiled and stepped towards him. He smiled back; he felt happy and smiling seemed to be the right thing to do.

"Ani what happened?"

"I don't know…"

"You need to learn to listen to those who love you," she sat down, "You'll only get those who love you hurt…not to mention yourself…"

"I'll try…"

Corusant – 1:02am. Jedi Temple – Medic Wing.

Obi-Wan watched as Anakin floated, unconsciously around in the Bacta Tank. The large glass shard removed form his neck had not penetrated far enough to kill him. But it was a close call which made him and the rest of the council realize the Sith weren't the only danger to Anakin. Anakin was capable of getting into the position of being able to hurt him self without meaning to. There fore the council had restricted Anakin to being within the temple under close observation.

Anakin eyes slowly opened the meet several gazes of people who were obviously not too pleased by his actions.

Anakin hunched his shoulders as he slid his Jedi Cloak on. "Anakin are you even listening?" Obi-Wan questioned. "Yes, I'm listening" snapped Anakin, many looked rather taken-aback by this.

"Ani you scared us…we're just concerned" Padme said while Master Yoda merely nodded in agreement.

"Right…concerned…" he said rolling his eyes.

"Are you alright?" Obi-Wan asked with a frown.

"No," Anakin said, he was glaring now, "The Sith may be evil, but at least they're honest…" he barged past the three of them and stormed off down the hallway.

R&R please! Sad ending for the chapter…I know…
