A moment of beauty happened in the Skywalker family with much pain and labor through all around them. While Anakin remained in tears witnessing his wife in pain, only being able to hold her hand with his right hand; the artificial limb. It seemed to be a cruel irony as the relationship they had would have almost been ended by that piece of mechanical life consuming another, a reminder of the man he once was. Another cruel irony is that the very hand that almost took her life was to be there to comfort her, but connected to a completely different man. She screamed causing Anakin to look at the ground with a lump in his throat from the emotion pouring out. Even the strict Jedi Master Yoda beared some sympathy despite the Jedi Knight's defiance. He looked to Padme once the first one was out, he interpreted the droid's language.

"It's a boy."

She sobbed, "Luke."

She smiled in joy as she reached out to the baby Anakin took from the droid, wrapping it in a swab. At last it was over Anakin thought when he saw the smile he fell in love with. Life has a cruel way of correction once she felt something else. Anakin looked onward as something else was coming out the metal covering her lower torso. The droid comforted as he gave Luke to the Senator Organa and he recieved the next baby.

With trouble her husband managed to say, "It's a girl."

She sighed and repeated, "Leia."

Anakin kneeled next to his wife sobbing promising, "I will never hurt you ever again, I promise Padme. I will never hurt you."

She smiled and wiped a tear from his face, "Annie, we're fine. There's still hope. I'm just glad you're back."

Ignoring the environment around him he embraced her the best he could. He whispered, "I'm glad you're alive."


Hours later they settled the children, but Anakin had more matters at hand. They gathered in the Tantive IV's meeting room to discuss the future plans ahead.

Yoda says, "Hide the children we must, if the Jedi Order is to survive."

Anakin suggested, "Master, if we attack him now he will be too weak to repel us."

Obi-Wan reasoned, "Anakin, the clones?"

He realized they were no longer under command of the Jedi Order and he cursed, "Sith spit!"

"And now the Jedi are only us, and those who survive in the galaxy." Yoda sighs and mourns in silence.

Organa states, "The most important thing is where the children are to be settled at."

Anakin defends, "With me of course!"

Obi-Wan rationalizes, "Meaning a place they could hide from Palpatine's senses."

Yoda suggested, "To Tatooine, to his family send them."

Anakin says, "And I'll raise my own children in the ways of the Force."

Yoda grimaces and says, "Due to your former allegiance to the Sith Order, trust you I can not."

The being had a point, but it was not something he wanted to hear. Discipline was what he failed to comply with before, but now he would keep his tongue in check.

Obi-Wan suggests, "I will be the one to supervise Anakin in his training."

Bail got up and said, "If you'll excuse me, I'll be discussing with Ms. Amidala what her plans will be."

Everybody excused him and Yoda called the two Jedi closer.

"Training I have for you two. An old master that learned to be one with the Force. Obi-Wan, your old master."

The former padawan gasped, "Qui-Gon!"


Kashyyyk

The whole planet came under fire after the reformation of the Old Republic as the Imperial Ventalor class Star Destroyers surrounded the planet and a man with a certain mission came in a white shuttle. Armies of the Empire were landing with a reverse turn of events. The wookies once fighting alongside the "Knights of the Republic" were now battling the Gestapo of the New Order. Amongst the military V-wing fighters bombarding the jungles, LAAT gunships dropping troops off to conquer the tree villages of the planet, a white diplomatic shuttle landed with Imperial Guards exiting the vehicle and coming out was a black cloaked man walking on a cane used for deception.

An Clone Commander approached the figure, "Your Majesty, there's been a delay but I assure you everything is in good progress."

Sidious berated, "I am not here to monitor your conquest of these savage beasts, Commander. I am here on a mission of my own. Now please, focus on the matter at hand."

As if to emphasize, Sidious sent an arc of lightning into a wookie flying down from a tree and sent the creature flying into a tree and the Clone proceeded with the rest of his unit deeper into the jungle. The Emperor dismissed his guard, "Just worry of the ship, gentlemen. I can handle this beastly environment from here."

Alone the Sith Lord proceeded blowing away obstacles including pitiful fortifications the native species built up to repel such assault intended once for droids. Throughout the chaos of battle, he followed his senses finally to a hut built into a tree with a Jedi inside it.

"Dark Lord, you won't find anything here!" a hooded man boldly claimed.

The Sith hissed, "You cannot hide yourself, Jedi!"

He sent lightning only for the man to intercept the blast with his lightsaber. Pathetically not for long as he held it firmly in place only for the Emperor to come closer until the two energies collided and caused a small burst of energy to send the man into his hut. He entered through the cloth and looked around to find the same Jedi charred from the blast. He lifted him into the air.

"I sense a being with much greater power, Jedi!" he spat.

He then demanded, "Where is your master?"

"The Dark Side has clouded your mind. One of your apprentices killed my master days ago."

"Then be joyous to join his fate."

He felt a use of the Force and heard an ignition of a lightsaber. He looked to the source and found a boy confused at what he was doing at first gripping the weapon with two hands. The predator smiled and hissed, "So you hold a son as well? Reminds me of a certain apprentice. If you can not turn the father, then turn the son!"

He slung the Jedi into the ground of the hut and he shocked him causing his body to jolt in all sorts of directions until finally his body was cooked of any life. He looked to the boy and he retrieved his lightsaber from the boy's grip and he sent another arc of lightning into the son he found.

"From now on, you will call me master!" He sent another arc into the boy.

"This is for your defiance." He shocked him yet again causing the youthful agony. He would stop before his rage completely kills him. Troopers came into the hut and they saw the boy was dying. They aimed their rifles only for the Emperor to dismiss their hostilties.

"Get a Med-Evac for the boy and put him in my personal hospital on Coruscaunt."

The leading officer replied, "Yes your Majesty!"

Sidious cackled and he ranted, "I will get my revenge yet, Lord Vader!"

To be continued...


Will the boy survive Sidious's training? Will Anakin and Padme raise their family together? When will the Republic be restored?
