Chapter Seventeen:

Anakin slowly walked down the hall towards the room that he and Obi-Wan shared while they were on Borleias. They had been there about a week and had done nothing but sit in on meetings and strategic planning. Yet the entire time, Anakin wasn't giving them his full attention. His attention was focused on something in the Force. There was something there, lurking; but he couldn't figure out what it was. And that was really beginning to worry him.

He had talked to Obi-Wan about it a little. He felt it better to tell his master his feelings, then keep them bottled up inside. He knew clearly what feelings could do to a person. And turning back to the dark side was the last thing that he wanted.

"We'll stay a few more days. I too, have felt something lurking in the shadows of the Force." Obi-Wan had told him.

Anakin didn't argue with him, he just accepted it. At least Obi-Wan was willing to admit that there was something causing a disturbance in the Force.


It hadn't taken Kelista very long to locate the "hidden" rebel fleet. She had connections that she knew would come through.

Once there, she had made up a story to gain their trust. She had told them that she was from the planet of Dantooine and during the Clone Wars; the Separatist droid army had killed her entire family. And it worked.

Along with that she was even assigned to a post within the rebellion – an assistant to Padmé Amidala Skywalker.

"This is perfect. By being her assistant, I can gain her trust. It's just the mother and her handmaiden. Shouldn't be too hard, especially since that Jedi Master Yoda has left on another mission." Kelista thought to herself once she learned more about her post.


Anakin sat up breathing hard. This was a new dream. A dream where his children are taken and Padmé is killed. This dream wasn't like the ones that he had while they were all together on Audu. This felt more like a vision. He quietly got out of bed, so not to disturb Obi-Wan who was sleeping on a cot on the other side of the room. He needed fresh air.

The sun was just rising on Borleias. Anakin sat there and watched it. He hadn't known how long he had been sitting there or how long Obi-Wan had been standing close by. His mind was only on one thing at the moment – Padmé and the twins.

"Everything alright Anakin?"

"I can't stay master. I have to get to Padmé and the twins. Something isn't right." Anakin said still starring out at the sun.

"Let's go talk to Bail then." Obi-Wan said without questioning Anakin once.

Within no time, Obi-Wan and Anakin had gone and talked with Bail and they didn't say why they had to leave. They simply said that there was something disturbing in the Force and they needed to check it out. Bail didn't argue with them or even question it.

He told them to take two of the fighters that they had there and sent them on their way, just so long that they return as soon as possible. And Obi-Wan agreed before Anakin could get a word in otherwise.

"I'm coming Padmé." Anakin sent through the Force as he and Obi-Wan made their jumps to hyperspace.
