Author Note: Hey guys! Thanks so much for the great reviews again! I love the fact that my unintentional references between father and son are so effective. Well, this story is about Luke and Leia finding out the truth, from their mother's eyes, about what happened on Mustafar. Enjoy!

Even from space, Mustafar glowed like a hot ember. As her ship neared the surface, Padme saw rivers of lava and oceans of molten rock. Fissures leaked fire from the heart of the planet, and smoke rose from cracks and vents on the blackened surface. It was hard to control the skiff in the shifting air currents, but eventually Padme and C-3PO fought it to a safe landing.

Through the cockpit window, she saw Anakin running eagery toward the landing platform. Hastily, she unstrapped and ran out to meet him...

"Luke, are you in there?" Leia's voice broke Luke's concentration and the vision dissolved. He sighed and put the belt back in the suitcase as Leia opened the door and peered in.

"I found some of Mum's clothes," he told her, showing her the suitcase he had found under his bed. He held up the belt he had just been holding.

"What were you doing? I could feel that you were using the force."

"I was trying to find out what Mum was doing when she was wearing these clothes...look, you try with me..." Luke held out the belt and Leia, who reluctantly took the other end of the belt in her hand.

"Now close your eyes and concentrate," he instructed her, so Leia took a deep breath and closed her eyes, concentrating as much as she dared. After all, she wasn't sure that she wanted to know what her mother had been doing when wearing this belt.

Everything went dark in Leia's mind, and then she was back on Mustafar with Luke.

His embrace reassured Padme, his arms made her feel secure once more.

"I saw your ship! Its alright," he murmered. "You're safe now."

She looked up gratefully, and he said, "What are you doing out here?"

All the things she had been pushing out of her mind since leaving Coruscant came flooding back, and she looked down.

"Obi-Wan told me terrible things."

She felt Anakin stiffen.

"What things?"

"He said you have turned to the dark side," Padme blurted out. "That you killed younglings."

Her voice sounded accusing, even to her own ears. This wasn't the way she had meant to ask him for the truth.

"Obi-Wan is trying to turn you against me," Anakin said, and she heard the stirring of a terrible anger in his voice.

"He cares about us," Padme told him.

"Us?"

"He knows...He wants to help you. Anakin, all I want is your love."

"Love won't save you Padme. Only my new powers can."

"At what cost? You're a good person, don't do this!"

"I won't lose you the way I lost my mother! i've become more powerful than any Jedi has ever dreamed of...and I've done it for you. To protect you."

"Come with me," Padme put a hand on her swelling stomach. "Help me raise our child. Leave everything else behind while we still can," she begged.

"Don't you see," Anakin leaned forward eagerly. "We don't have to run away anymore. I have brought peaceto the Republic. I am more powerful than the Chancellor. I can overthrow him, and together you and I can rule the galaxy. Make things the way we want them to be."

Padme recoiled in horror.

"I don't believe what I'm hearing! Obi-Wan was right. You've changed.

"I don't want to hear any more about Obi-Wan!" Anakin's temper finally burst loose. Padme's fear must have shown on her face, because he made a visible effort to control himself.

"The Jedi turned against me, don't you turn against me!"

"I don't know you anymore," she told him. Couldn't he feel her heart breaking? Well she would make it clear. "Anakin, you're breaking my heart. You're going down a path I can't follow."

"Because of Obi-Wan?" Anakin growled, the anger rising again.

"Because of what you've done...what you plan to do! Stop! Stop now! Come back! I love you!"

For the barest moment - for the barest instant - she thought she would succeed in bringing back the Anakin that was her husband, her lover, the father of their child.

Then Anakin's expression changed. "Liar!" he cried.

He was staring at something behind her. Padme turned, and saw Obi-Wan standing in the door of the skiff. She knew that she'd been tricked by the Jedi Master. How could he!

"No!" she cried, knowing this new Anakin would never listen to her now.

"You're with him! You brought him here to kill me!"

"No! Anakin I swear..." Padme protested, but rage had made Anakin's face unrecognizable. He lifted his hand and curled his fingers into a fist.

Padme felt herself choking, unable to breathe. She grabbed at her throat and tried desperately to pry open the invisible fingers that were closed around her neck. She called out Anakin's name, trying to get him to listen.

"Let her go, Anakin!" Obi-Wan called from the top of the ramp. "Let her go!"

Anakin released his choke hold and Padme fell to the floor unconscious.

Leia felt like she was the one that had been strangled. She sat down on the bed, gasping and struggling for breath. When she looked up, she came face to face with the monster who had killed her mother...no, it was only Luke.

It was only now that she had seen the image of her father out of his suite, that she realised how like him, Luke was...and she supposed, from the look on Luke's face, that he was thinking the same about her and Padme.

The twins gazed at each other for ages, snatches of the conversations they had heard between their parents floating through their heads.

And then they both grabbed the next item of clothing from the suitcase, desperate to find out the answers to more of their millions of questions.
