Ok a new chapter to read! I love this chapter! It was fun to write compare to last chapter and the ones I'm writing now. However. sorry to say. I'm rewriting the next chapter. :( So I don't know when I'm going post it. Have about 17 pages pages to rewrite before I can type it up. I made some changes in the storyline but you will love it!
inuyashasdragonballs - The summary is going be change later on. For the third time. I have people reading it. But I think the style of the story is turning them off. Plus I think they are judging the story by the first chapter. Which was to be on the wild side. Their lost. But I'm put a longer summary in my profile page after a certain event happen.
Anakin's Girl - Obi-Wan ? Hehehe. Oh the plans I have for him. hehehe
Amapadme - Sorry Aankin still in a coma.
Kal's Girl - Yup I'm "keep going" with story. Better hang on. Things are going get interesting very soon.
All the italics are either Anakin's voice or what he is experienci
Enjoy!
Chapter 25
Tired
Not
of walking
the
greyness.
I'm
not grey
but
everything else is.
But
is this?
the
real way back.
I
don't know –
Sounds-
again.
"Anakin. Anakin! You're too quiet today. well at least you didn't tried to hit anybody in therapy today. Dr K'amott said today that your Galeriana levels are down to 30. So what are we looking at, maybe another two weeks being in a coma. Then you'll wake up." Padme said, taking his hand. " I finally got the twins' room done, including the star map. Shaak Ti went through your room at the Temple and found it. She also sent two beautiful blankets from her home world. Also, the Council sent some stuff too, which just amazed Obi-Wan. So far they are sharing a crib. There is another crib, in case a fight breaks out. They are not fighting much anymore but they either in a truce or just ran out of room."Padme, looking at her husband, still laying in a bed. He was a tab too quiet today.
"Also at the end of the Senate term or later on. Palpatine is stepping down. He too tired now, the poor old soul. He's going retired to his country estate at Nagor'a. The Republic is still repairing itself. I have faith everything will return out fine, somehow. Most the Jedi have return back to Temple. You are greatly miss there. Oh, Master Plo Koon flew you starfighter to Naboo for you. However, he took out a part and it's up to you to figure out which one. He said he did it to give you something to do and to make sure you didn't try to fly before your ready. Obi-Wan doesn't say much about the Order. I gather he's not returning to the Temple. Going on some retreat for a year after you recover. Sound like for a year."
Padme watched as Anakin slowly shift himself, not much in the movement. A thought passed through her mind. Then she rubbed her forehead, she was tired. Not at Anakin personally, he did what he thought was right at the time. But why couldn't she just have more moments of happiness with him. Part of her was willing let fate have Anakin, then she cursed Fate. Determined to fight the God of that, Padme pick up the Naboo's goddess of the moon, Shiraya. She made another silent pray to her. Then put it back on the night stand.
"Where are you Ani?. My friend Karis is here. You should see her when she is around Obi-Wan. Karis does nothing but flirt with him And oh course Obi-Wan is too polite to say anything. Personally, I think he enjoys being the one she can't have. Anakin, I wonder sometimes if you ever hear a word I say to you."as she pick up his hand.
Then
I feel a touch
it's
-
I
don't know
Not
blackness, something.
Then-
it
takes my hand
and
embraces it.
"Where are you Anakin? Hopefully not in the arm of another woman." Padme suggested as she squeeze his hand. "Yes, you have been the bad boy."
Why
I
don't know
but
I close my hand
to
the touch.
Then
pull
away from it
and
walk towards the white.
"Anakin! you squeeze my hand. Ani, are you finally coming back to me. Please Anakin, I'm tired being alone. I need you Ani. I don't want raise these kids alone. I miss you so much. I miss your voice, your laughter and your touch. Everything Anakin. I don't want to spend my rest my life alone. I could never marry somebody else. Anakin Skywalker can you hear me at all." Padme said stroking his face, trying not to cried again.
Again
I
feel a touch.
Then
–
I'm not standing in the greyness.
In a field, full of flowers and sun. Who's resting in a sky dotted with huge white clouds. Some large brown creatures are walking about. Behind me, a huge ring of waterfalls, that's cascading into a river. Which I feel its power as touches my face, along with the warm sun
I
take a few steps down the field.
There
–
Someone, is sitting on the ground. Quietly I walk up to this person and realized.
The person is a she.
Dressed in a pale yellow dress, covered in embroidered flowers. The sun is playing with her hair, that has pale ribbons intertwined in it. She just quietly sitting there. Now and then picking at the grass or picking a flower and smelling it. But for the part, she's just staring off in the distance. Taking no notice of me.
Looking like the beautiful woman she is.
Who
is she?
As
you tried to remember, she turns to you
"Anakin, ready for some lunch? she said, opening up a case."Come on Anakin. You can't stand there on guard all day."
Padme.
Padme, that's her name.
Padme
my –
You
are back in the greyness
But
with your name
and
her name and a memory
of
her. The one you been seeking.
The
answer
you've
been walking to.
"Padme"Anakin quietly mumbled. "Padme" Then started to move about a bit more. But the chest restraint prevent him from getting up.
"Ani? Did you say my name?" Padme asked. "Easy Anakin, what's wrong now?"
"Padme" he said a little louder. "Padme"
"Yes! You are saying my name." Padme slowly getting up. "Ok I'm here. Calm down." she said, touching his face and giving a kiss too. "Easy. Easy Anakin. Ok, they are going have to tighten those restraints again. Nurse. Whoa Ani, watch it with those arms. Hit Obi-Wan, not me. Thank you!
Where
is she?
Enough
of this
Am
I trapped here?
No!
"Here I can give him a sedated now."Nurse said, injecting him. "That will calm him down. He said your name. Well, clearly he is waking up now. I'll say next week for him to come out the coma."
"I hope so" Padme, helping the nurse straighten his covers."There you are Ani. All calm down now. I have to leave a little earlier today. Ok. Be back tomorrow. I have appointment with the midwife with Naporta. Oh, Thank you for telling me, that the last pair of Jedi twins was 125 years ago. Never why Naporta wants to be here. I don't mind. Ouch! My back again, I need one your back rubs again."
"Hello Obi-Wan" Karis shyly said, entering his room.
"Hello Karis. I take it you got my letter"
"Yes an I'm ignoring it too. Obi-Wan you listen to me. You have every right to life of your own. You said yourself, you are tired of the Jedi Order. So leave and enjoy it. Damn it!" Karis angrily shot back.
"It's not that simple for me. I was raise to be a Jedi. I took an oath. I just can't walk away." Obi-Wan said, getting up from the bed.
"But did you have a choice in the matter. Did somebody asked you, if you wanted to be a Jedi. No, you were taken from your family. Hate to say it, brainwashed into one. Don't say it Obi-Wan Kenobi! It's damn awful truth of the Jedi Order. Never why Padme was so worry about the twins. I don't blame her. Anakin is right, the Jedi Order needs to be reform!" Karis, facing the window, not looking at Obi-Wan.
"Karis, I know you don't understand and sometimes I don't understand either. But the Jedi Order is my life. I can't simple walk away from it. Yes, I can leave the Order but I don't want too."Obi-Wan putting his hand on her shoulder.
"I know this isn't fair for you. But I don't want to hurt you anymore and I know this hard enough already. Yet, I must stay true to my to my Jedi Oath and to the Order. Plus, next month Anakin should be out the coma. I'll probably handling his care for Padme." He said, turning her around and giving her a kiss. "But I don't want to lose touch of you either."
