Chapter 13: Returning to Coruscant and Naboo

Padmé and Anakin had everything ready to go. Beru and Owen were saying goodbye to Luke and Leia. "Well, that's everything," Anakin informed. Padmé walked over and embraced Beru.

"Thank you for everything," she murmured.

Beru smiled and tapped the woman's shoulder. "It was my pleasure. I was able to see where your life is going to be heading," she assured Padmé. Anakin shook Owen's hand and looked at his twins.

"I promise that you will see your niece and nephew again. It'll be awhile, but you will see them again," he assured him.

"You just get that Jedi Order back into place," Owen instructed.

Anakin nodded before picking Luke up. Padmé picked Leia up and then they went on the ship.

Obi-Wan and Sabé were already on the ship getting ready to go. "Everything's set, Anakin, we're just waiting for you," Sabé informed.

"Where is Mara Jade?" Padmé asked.

"She's in her room," Sabé replied.

Padmé placed Leia on the floor and watched as her twins ran off to play with Mara Jade. Padmé sat down and got ready for take off. She held onto the arms as the ship was lifted off and they went towards Coruscant.

Later that afternoon, Padmé walked into the room where her children were and smiled to see that they were sleeping. Anakin stood next to her and saw it too. "I guess this has tired them out," she commented. She picked Luke up while he picked Leia up.

"Yeah, such little kids, but the Force in them are strong. Luke is stronger though," he informed.

"He is stronger. Obi-Wan told me when he was an infant. That's why I let him train Luke," she stated.

They placed the twins on the bed and she placed a blanket over them. Anakin sighed as he touched his daughter's face. "I have a lot to fix," he mumbled. She wrapped her arms around his waist and placed the side of her face against his back.

"I'll be here for you while you fix this up. I promise," she assured him.

Anakin nodded and then he walked back to the bridge.

When they arrived at Coruscant, Obi-Wan and Anakin went to where the Jedi Temple used to sit. Anakin sighed as he looked at it. "I made this happen," he murmured. Obi-Wan placed a hand on Anakin's shoulder.

"And together we will rebuild the Jedi Order," he assured him.

"Yes, master," Anakin agreed.

Later that evening, Anakin was standing out on the balcony of his old home. He looked out over the city to see that it was quiet. Padmé walked over and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Ani, are you okay?" She asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just have a lot on my mind," he replied.

Anakin turned to look at her and pulled her to him. "I promise that I'll never leave like that again, Padmé. I promise," he murmured. She wrapped her arms around him and closed her eye. The thought of actually raising her children with her husband. After all these years, her dream had finally come true.

A few months passed and the Jedi Temple was rebuilt and the Jedi was returning. Yoda was brought out of his hiding place. More younglings for Jedi training were coming. Anakin was able to train Luke into becoming a Jedi. Luke was appointed his Padawan and Mara Jade was appointed to be Obi-Wan's Padawan.

A couple of months had passed and Anakin saw that his wife was missing Naboo. He had an idea, but he had to run it by Obi-Wan and Yoda first.

"Enter you may, Skywalker," Yoda stated. Anakin entered the room and bowed to them.

"Master Obi-Wan, Master Yoda, I have come to you with a proposition," Anakin stated.

"What is it, Anakin?" Obi-Wan asked.

"Padmé would like to return to Naboo," Anakin replied.

"Missing family she is," Yoda commented.

"Yes, she does have her parents, her sister, and her nieces. They have no idea that Luke and Leia even exist. I will continue Luke's training on the planet Naboo. We also want our children to know that they have grandparents, an aunt, and cousins," Anakin explained.

"Return you may, Anakin. May the Force be with you," Yoda stated.

Anakin bowed and walked out of the room.

Padmé was watching Luke practice his saber techniques in front of Leia. She smiled to see that Leia was impressed by her brother's strength with the lightsaber. She heard the door open and saw Anakin standing there. "Where have you been?" She asked.

"I was talking to Master Yoda and Obi-Wan," he replied.

"What were you asking them?" She asked.

"I was asking permission if I could bring my wife back to her home planet, Naboo, and have our children see her family."

Padmé gasped and threw her arms around his neck. Anakin smiled and hugged her tight. Luke and Leia walked over to their parents confused. "Mommy, daddy, what's going on?" Leia asked. Padmé let Anakin go and she knelt in front of her daughter.

"Sweet heart, daddy is going to take us to my home. We're going to Naboo," she replied.

"What about my training?" Luke asked.

"I'll be training you there," Anakin replied.

The twins became excited about seeing their mother's family and went to get ready.

Obi-Wan and Sabé were at the platform saying goodbye to their friends. "We'll come to join you as soon as we can," Sabé assured Padmé. The two best friends embraced before Padmé took the twins onto the ship. Anakin and Obi-Wan said their goodbyes before Anakin walked onto the ship.
