As Padme rode in the medic ship, her back throbbing and her hands twitching...she looked out at the speeding desert land and listened the faint distant blasts from down below.
As she sat there her thoughts went back almost ten years ago, back on Naboo when she first met Obi-Wan.
They had taken her prisoner and were leading her to one of their ships when she heard a low buzzing from above. She was dressed as a handmaid, as her faithful bodyguard was being held ahead of them with the droids. When she heard the noise her large scared oak colored eyes glanced up at the stone bridge that hung over the courtyard.
There were two flashes of light. one green...and one blue.
Two men, dressed in tan colored robes jumped down and almost within a link of an eye, the droids were cut in half. She stood back with the others, and then caught her first look at the man she would always love.
He swung his lightsaber in a perfect circle and stood back.
He was perfect.
Just then her thoughts returned to where she was now, a total wreck and confused.
But she knew the truth...she loved Obi-Wan.
That kiss, that one kiss they shared in the area was what she had been dreaming about since he left her. They were soul mates...and couldn't go on living without each other.
Then something happened.
A sharp pain, almost like a knife entered her heart. She blinked and somehow...deep down inside she knew something was wrong with Obi-Wan.
She took in a deep breath and then let out a faint cry, making one of the troppers to turn and look at her.
"What is it M'lady?"
"Obi-Wan..." she said in a low almost breathless voice.
Something that happened to him, something had happened to her love.
