AN: I'm sorry I've been really busy and had major writer's block as well.
I finally got this chapter out! It's not very long but when fighting a
huge steel wall of writer's block, there's only so much one can do. But I
fought the writer's block and won, or at least I think I did...

Ch. 6: Darkness & An Angel (Flashback 1)
Padme sat at her window staring out at the Alderaanian countryside as she thought of her son, Luke. * He'll turn ten this year. It all seems so impossible. Anakin evil, Luke & Leia turning ten.... * She was interrupted from her thoughts by a sudden knock on the door. * Who could that be? I know can't be Obi-Wan, and Leia & her foster-parents are on some other planet for an important meeting... *
She cautiously went to the door and opened it just a little ways. "Who is it?" She called out into the hall. "Just me, Padme, or do you not recognize me?" came a voice she had not heard in nearly ten years. "Ani? Is that you?" she asked hesitantly afraid that this was all just a dream. * Could it be my Ani? I know Obi-Wan said he had turned to the darkside but I don't really believe it. Anakin becoming evil just seems so impossible... *
"Of course, were you perhaps expecting my old master?" came the sarcastic reply. "No, I haven't seen Obi-Wan for over nine years now." said Padme said truthfully. "Are you ever going to let me in? Or I am to stand here forever?" "Oh, right. Come in, Ani." She said slightly flustered. "I'm not called Anakin anymore. My name now is Vader." He said as he came inside. "Alright, I guess..." she trailed off staring at him.
He was not wearing the huge balky suit that he would have to later wear. Instead he was wearing nearly all black, black pants, black boots, a gray cloak that sort of resembled a Jedi's cloak, black shirt, and black body armor over the shirt.
"Why are you here?" she asked him. "I had planned to try to find you earlier but the Emperor would not allow me to search for you." Vader said slowly. Padme just looked and him and thought. * He is very different from the way he used to be but he doesn't seem evil. Not to me anyway... *
"Padme," Anakin spoke up suddenly, "I promised to love you and stay with you forever. And I still plan to do that. Although, how an angel like you could love me I do not know." Padme watched his face before replying, "Ani, I made that same promise to you. I will never willingly break it."
Anakin and Padme just stood there looking at each other for what seemed like the longest time. To them it seemed like they had never been parted, and that the past ten years had never truly happened. To them it simply seemed like a half forgotten dream.
Anakin, called Vader, slowly stepped forwards and wrapped his arms around his love. He picked her up in his arms as he had done so many times before and took a few large steps into her bedroom.

AN: Ok. So this wasn't the longest chapter you've ever seen. At least I finished it! I already have an idea for the next chapter so hopefully it won't be too long before I start writing it. Please, please review!!!
