Disclaimer: I like this idea so much with Mara and Anakin bond. Its DarthGladiator45's idea from the story they wrote called 'Skywalker Family'. It's not my idea. I will not be using the whole story. I was going to use the Mara and Anakin Bond and the Mara and Han bond in my story. Remember this is not my idea its DarthGladiator45's

Lance, Louis, and London: 8 years' old

Chapter Fifty-Seven

16 days went by, the Triplets had a wonderful life day and so did Lola. They all got all kinds of different presents. Recently, Lance had been a little rowdy, he has been irritated that Anakin hasn't been around. Padme just didn't understand Lance and Lance didn't understand why Padme is being so tough on him. It is just so unfair. Being 8 years old sucks. The only one who understands in Luke and Anakin. Luke is off with Obi-Wan on a mission across the planet. Lance felt truly alone and sad. Lance walked to his room he shared with Louis and London, he crossed his legs and went into meditation.

"Daddy." Lance wept

"Yes, little one, everything okay?" Anakin answered through the Force

"I just wish I could go with you. I miss you and I just want time with you." Lance murmured

"I will be back in a few more weeks Lance, than I will be there when you get picked as a padawan learner, when you pick out your lightsaber crystal, and for every important moment of your life. Please understand that I need to be here for Mara right now. It doesn't mean I do not love you; I will always be here for you Lance. When I get back, we can have a day. Is that okay?" Anakin asked

"Of course, Daddy. Thank you." Lance hung up the connection.

Back on the ship, Anakin and Mara are almost at Bespin. She already passed her Trial of Courage and Anakin explained that he will stay in the ship, while Mara deals with this trade dispute that is going on here. He expressed to her that there is speculation that Darth Aaron is behind all this. They ascended down to Bespin; the orange-y clouds Mara could feel held in a lot of the heat. She started sweating as soon as she stepped off the ship. Mara put up her hair with a green hair tie. Mara is nervous, she took a deep breath and pushed her nervousness into the Force.

"You got this Mara. Just remember your training. I cannot interfere here. I know you will do amazing." Anakin instructed

Mara did as she is instructed, then walked into the building, she talked to someone, and they brought her into a waiting room. After about an hour, she is confused why it was taking long. She decided to do some searching, she entered this room that looked as though it was a duel room at the Jedi Temple. She sat in the room and started to meditate, she felt around, she felt a cold force presence. He was searching for her, but why? She has only met Darth Aaron a few times, why does he want to find her? It makes no sense to her. She opened her eyes and stood up, then she turned around. She faced this man with red hair, not as vibrant as Maras. He has intense freckles, and he is wearing all black. His eyes are as red as Maras's hair.

"Mara Jade. Its nice to see you again." Darth Aaron ignited his lightsaber

"Its nice to see you again too Aaron." Mara looked around. "What's the purpose of this? Why are you hurting the people of Bespin?" Mara asked while avoiding confrontation

"Being connected to the Republic is a disgrace." Darth Aaron sneered.

"Are we still at that? There isn't a Republic or Separatists anymore. Ever since Palpatine died, there is democracy here, the people decide." Mara informed.

"I am doing this because I have to." He lunges at Mara. Mara blocks him. Their lightsabers clash and they start fighting. Mara would be at an advantage and then Darth Aaron would be at an advantage. Darth Aaron is trying to get Mara to turn with him.

"Mara, you know this is the way, it's so easy, it meant for you." Darth Aaron taunted

"I will never do that." Mara struggled speaking

"You don't know what you are missing out on." Darth Aaron continued to taunt

"Oh, I do." The light saber flight lasted for another half an hour. It is a pretty intense fight. Mara made one step wrong, she miscalculated for a millisecond. A painful millisecond. Darth Aaron's lightsaber went right through Mara's arm. Mara cried and collapses on the floor.

"Next time it will be your heart, stay away sister." Darth Aaron threatened. Mara is lost for words and in so much pain she couldn't comprehend anything. She covered her arm and used the minimal healing power that Anakin taught her. Lola is a better healer then Mara is. Mara healed her wound a bit, just enough to stop the bleeding. Darth Aaron walked away.

"Sister?" Mara yelled,

"Stay down or else I will kill you." Darth Aaron threatened, they started light saber fighting again. They ended up moving onto this balcony and Darth Aaron. Mara and Darth Aaron continued to light saber fight. She did the best she could. Darth Aaron ended up Force pushing Mara off the edge of the balcony, she fell a few flights and used the Force to catch herself on a wire. The wound on her arm tore more which caused her more pain. "Master, please help." Mara called through the Force, hoping that Anakin could find her. She is in so much pain. Luckily Anakin flew right underneath Mara and she fell into the ship. Anakin caught her and put her down on the medical bed in the ship and flew into hyperspace on the way to Dagobah. Once they are safe in hyperspace, Anakin connected Mara to a medic droid that is on the ship. He whispered to Mara, who was unconscious. "You did it Mara, you are almost done, two more to go."
