There seems to be some confusion as to when the story has ended, unless I put "the end" at the end of the story, its going to keep going!

Chapter 13

Over the next weeks Padme and Obi-Wan adjusted to their new life on Alderaan. They saw Bail regularly; he often stopped by in the evenings to see how things were going. He kept them informed about what was going on with the rebellion, often asking for Obi-Wan's advice about how to train an army.

"When our base is set up, perhaps you could even come to Yavin 4 and help with training and combat" Bail asked hoping Obi-Wan would say yes.

"I'd like to help as much as I can Bail but…" he looked over to Padme who was sitting across from him at the table.

"Obi-Wan, you don't need to worry about me, the twins and I will be fine here" she said glancing over to the crib in the nearby corner.

"I can assure you Padme will be kept safe" Bail said smiling.

"Then the answer is yes, I'd be honored to go to Yavin 4 and help with the army."

"Mon Mothma will be pleased when I tell her the news, as well as the other members of the rebellion, I'll be in touch."

"I can tell you are hesitant about leaving me and the twins" Padme said as she shut the front door after Bail left.

"I worry, it would be more safe for you to be here than with the rebellion."

"But?"

"But I can't protect you from the Empire while I am away."

"Anakin and Palpatine don't know we are here, and, I don't think Anakin would hurt me even if they did."

"He's not Anakin anymore Padme."

"You mean Darth Vader? Yes, I've seen the news reports."

"I didn't want to cause you anymore pain."

"I know, I understand why you didn't say anything, but you know even though I am no longer a Senator I want to know what's going on with the Senate. Well, what is left of the Senate that is." He offered a small smile as he took her hand and squeezed it.

"There's good in him, I know, I know there is, still" she said as she released her hand and stared out the small cabin window.

"Do you think he'll come for the twins?"

"He didn't know I was carrying twins, I didn't know I was carrying twins. But no, he won't come for them."

"How do you know?"

"Because he thinks the baby is yours."
