Family Ties Chapter 4 - Luke's Dream A Mother And Son Reunion

Luke awoke to a familiar sound. He opened his eyes and he was in his bed back on Tattooine. He walked from his bedroom to the eating area. It was there he saw a beautiful young woman. "They are not here Luke, they wanted to be but it just wasn't possible Owen and Beru send you their love." Luke stared at the young woman replied "Who are you?" She approached him and touched his face as she spoke "I'm not surprised that you don't remember me, the last time we saw each other you were just a baby. My name is Padme Amidala Naiberrie. I'm your mother. I'd like to tell you about my relationship with your father. I first met your father here on Tattooine. I guess should explain the circumstances. I was born on the planet of Naboo, by the time I was fourteen I had been elected queen. I was being protected by Jedi Knights Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. We had landed on Tattooine and we had needed a part for our ship so that it could be repaired. Qui-Gon and I had gone into this shop that was owned by a Toydarian by the name of Watto in Mos Espa and we were greeted at the counter by a young nine year old boy named Anakin Skywalker, he and his mother Shimi were Watto's slaves. Watto had taken Qui-Gon to the back to look at the engine that we needed. Your father and I talked and he asked me the one question that I will never forget "Are you an Angel?"

When Watto found out that all we had were Republic credits he stopped being nice and basically kicked us out. Later on that day we ran into your father again he was on his way home there was a sandstorm coming so he invited us to stay with him and his mother. We needed that engine and Qui-Gon felt that Anakin was strong with the Force and wanted to take him back with us. Your father entered the Pod race and not only won it but gained his freedom from Watto but also our engine. Anakin had to leave his mother behind. Obi-Wan and Anakin didn't meet until after the Pod race.

I remember Anakin asking him if he was a Jedi to. We made our escape from Tattooine successfully but we had met the Sith called Darth Maul for the first time. Once we reached Coruscant there was a whole other set of problems, but the main thing is that your father's mentor and guardian Qui-Gon was killed by Darth Maul. It was Qui-Gon's dying wish that Obi-Wan train your father to become a Jedi.

Luke I didn't see your father again for ten years. While your father remained on Coruscant, I went back to Naboo to finish serving out my term as queen and then later on the new queen asked me to serve as a Senator in the Republic Senate on Coruscant." Padme went to hug Luke and spoke "My time is grows short and you will soon wake up."

Luke woke up and realized he was in his quarters he laid there in his bed for a few moments before getting up to get ready to head to Hoth with his squad.

Meanwhile on the other side of the galaxy Darth Vader was still pouring over the various intelligence reports concerning not only the rebels but his son. His anger over the Jedi stealing his own flesh and blood out from under him fueled his strength and determination to find Luke and try to repair the damage that Obi-Wan and the Rebel Alliance had done to taint his boy.
