MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU! Once again the date snuck up on me and I had to throw this together in only an hour, its not to good and really short but I had to post a Star Wars story or chapter on Star Wars day.
On that note, wow its been a full year since I published this story and it only has three chapters. Talk about slow updates huh?
Anyway, read, enjoy, REVIEW.
By the time the gathered crowd had finally calmed down from hearing about the apparent death of the beloved Senator Amidala the large patch of air above those gathered on stage was shifting once more, indicating the start of another vision of the future being revealed.
The waving air slowly cleared to reveal its picture, a large old cantina filled to the brim with s "Chug, chug, chug, chug, chug!" A group of boys chorised. In the middle of their small and lively group was an averaged sized teen that appeared to be the same age as Leia in the previous vision downing a large bottle of an unlabeled liquid that one would guess was alcohol.
When the boy finished his surrounding friends cheered and took away the now empty bottle, revealing the boy's face. He had a solid tan, vivid blue eyes, sun bleached blonde hair and wore an expression that clearly said he was more than a little drunk.
"Guess the Senator has a son in the future too." Ahsoka observed.
"Yeah and from the looks of that bar he's on Tatooine." Anakin confirmed with a heavy frown. Like hell he would let a child of his live on that sand covered rock of a planet.
"Okay okay everyone quiet down." One of the gathered boys spoke up with raised hands gaining the attention of his peers and the boy who had just chugged the unknown alcohol. "We are here to celebrate this guy right here," he patted the blonde's shoulder, "and him getting one year closer to getting off this dust ball and into the flight academy!" He said to a round of cheers. "Wormie. Luke." He told his friend, "we have been friends for years, we learned to fly together. I've watched as you went from being out peer learning to fly Beggars Canyon to leaving us so far in the dust it ain't even funny." He said. "You are without a doubt the best flyer in the entire sector and I am proud to be your wingman even in atmosphere." He told Luke. "If you don't make it into the academy in a few years then those bastard blue bloods are dumber than a womp rat." He declared getting a loud round of laughter out of Luke and the surrounding boys. The speech giver grinned, "To Luke!" He declared raising a glass.
"To Luke!" They all chorused.
"He seems very well liked." Bail told his friend, "Though I do wonder why it appears that while your daughter was sent to me this child was taken elsewhere."
"I wonder that as well Bail." Padme admitted, "I would prefer it if my children were kept together as a family even if I am not there to raise them myself."
"In this timeline you will be." He promised her, "Whatever caused your death preceding these visions we will prevent. You will see your children grow up."
The beautiful Senator of Naboo gave the Alderinian a warm smile before returning her focus to the vision.
At this point the group of friends had dispersed slightly, smaller groups taking up tables around the canteena. The apparent birthday boy, Luke, was sharing a table with the man who gave a speech and a another large muscular teen roughly the same age. "Sixteen now Wormie." The new man nudged Luke. "It's time to start your wild years, better enjoy it while you can, the Academy won't so much as allow you to take a shot let alone have a real party once you join up."
"Oh? What did you have in mind Tanks?" Luke asked the now named Tanks.
Tanks gave the other teen a savage smile, pointing to a table across the bar, "Just over yonder is a very nice looking Togruta drinking all by her lonesome." He informed Luke. "If you look in that corner right there you can see her." Tanks pointed to a spot the vision did not reveal. "Now given your… affinity for Togruta I would suggest you go over, turn up that charm of yours, and try your luck. Who know, maybe you and her can have your own private party outside of this hole." He winked.
Luke snorted, "First of all, don't say that like I got a fetish or something for Togruta, I'm just more comfortable around them than some of the other things around here, and besides what charm?"
"Don't sell yourself too short now Luke," The speech giver cut in, "You've got yourself a couple admirers, it's not totally out of the question that you could score. Give it a shot man, no harm in trying right?" He encouraged.
Padme put her face in one of her hands, she really didn't need to hear a conversation about her son's sex life or him trying to 'score'. Force this was being live streamed to the Holonet wasn't it?
Luke sighed, "Fine fine I'll go talk to her, see how it goes." He relented getting out of his chair and starting over in the direction that Tanks had pointed towards.
"We won't wait up!" The still unnamed boy called after him.
Luke waved a one finger salute back in response as he walked over to a now revealed Togruta woman. A woman that several people watching the vision recognized.
"Master is that..?" Ahsoka asked.
"Yes Ahsoka I think it is."
"Hey there." Luke greeted the woman as he slid into the bench across from her at her booth.
The Togruta raised a white colored brow at the younger man, "Can I help you?" She asked bored.
"Maybe." Luke said, "How about we introduce ourselves real quick and see where things go?" He suggested.
The woman rolled her eyes exasperated but nonetheless complied, "Ahsoka Tano." She introduced herself, "And you?"
Luke grinned, "My names Luke." he told her, "Luke Skywalker."
The vision of Ahsoka's eyes widened in shock as the vision waved out of existence.
The present Ahsoka turned to face her master with wide shocked eyes that mirrored the ones her potential future self had shown.
Anakin meanwhile was sweating bullets, "Oh Sithspit." He cursed.
Hope it wasn't too bad, be sure to tell me what you all think and be check out my other stories when you get the chance!
