"Luke... Help me, get this mask off..." Vader was dying... He knew He was.

"But you'll die." Luke retorts his eyes filled with worry.

"Nothing.. Can stop that now..." The Breathing apparatus is barely functioning. Vader has to use the Force just to talk, wanting to get some last few words to his Son. "Just for once, let me... Look on you, with my own eyes."

Luke was almost in tears, but he was holding them back so his father wouldn't have to see it. Knowing what Vader said was true, he reluctantly helped to take the mask off. When it was off, Vader could see his son's skyblue eyes and a look of pure joy and pride appeared on his face. It slowly Faltered as Vader resized how quickly he was slipping.

"Now, Go my son..." Vader said as Dread and Fear overcame Luke's Face. "Leave me." Luke began Shaking his head in denial, as he responded.

"No, Your coming with me, I'll not leave you here I've come to Save you" Luke explained

It was sad to Vader. To see his son in such distress, but he knew there was nothing that he could do but try and put his son's mind at ease. "You, already... Have." Vader assured. Vader was afraid, more afraid than He had ever been in his life. Sure he was afraid of dying, but his son feeling responsible? He could not bear it. "Luke, You were right. You were right about me. Tell your Sister, You. Were. Right." Vader could not prolong it any further, so with those last few word, Vader now Anakin Skywalker once again died in the second Death Star's hanger. Leaving his son in tears.

Then he woke to a void, pitch black and endless.

"Anakin." A familiar voice called to him. When he heard it he recognized it immediately.

"Qui Gon? Is that you?" Anakin asked.

"I always new you would do it." Qui Gon said with pride in his voice. Anakin turned to where he heard the voice to find Qui Gon standing before him. He was smiling. Anakin began to feel the guilt of all he had done, his eyes watering as he look away in shame.

"Ive caused so much pain, killed so many people, Tortured my own daughter, and tried to kill my son." He starts. "And your happy to see me?" Anakin looks to Qui Gon, tears streaming down his face. Qui Gon's expression went from one of joy to one of pity.

"Don't let it haunt you Anakin, you need to forgive yourself before your new life. Otherwise you will only continue to suffer." Qui Gon explains

Anakin's brow furrowed. "My New Life?" Anakin asks in confusion.

"Yes, Your being giving a second chance at life on a new world. A reward for bringing balance to the Force."

Anakin looked down processing what Qui Gon was telling him. "Will I be alone?" Anakin finally asks out of curiosity.

"A Friend will be Joining you."

"Who?" Anakin's vision becomes extraordinarily Bright making him squint. "Qui Gon? Who Will join me? Qui Gon?!" The light become too much to handle as Anakin closes his eyes hearing one finale goodbye.

"May the Force be with you Anakin, Always."

Anakin opens his eyes again, slowly as he hears birds chirping, and the sound of trees moving from the wind. When his eyes finally adjust He can see the trees. I'm in a Forest, like the ones on Naboo. He thought. He looks around only to notice someone unconscious on the ground about a yard away from him. He then gets up and ran over to check on them, recognizing right away that its a clone with blond hair. There's only one person this could be. He thought. He checks for a pulse, and after a moment finds one. He tries shaking them awake which surprisingly works.

"AHHHH, Who's Ther-" Rex shouts out shoving Anakin back before stopping mid sentence to get a good look at the man before him. "Anakin?"

"Rex, is that you." Anakin asks carefully. Anakin saw fear dawn Rex's features as he quickly grabbed his blaster and shot at Anakin while scrambling to his feet. Anakin in a flash ignited his lightsaber and deflected the blasts away from them both. "Rex stop! It's me Anakin! I'm not him anymore."

"Oh yeah? Why should I believe you! You tried to kill me, and you did kill so many others!" Rex ranted on in anger and confusion. "Wait, I died." Rex realizes. "Dose that make this the afterlife? Or was that just a vary detailed and long dream?"

"Your definitely dead... Kinda. I can tell you what I know just please lower the weapon." Anakin says calmly gesturing for Rex to lower his weapon. With a moment of tense silence Rex contemplates Anakins words. With a sigh he holsters his blaster. "From what I understand we've been given a second chance at life." Anakin explains.

"A second life?" Rex questions. "What like we were reincarnated."

"Yeah that's the idea I've gotten from it." Anakin shrugs. "Master Qui Gon said it was a reward for completing the prophecy of The Chosen One." Rex frowns at the knowledge. It was odd for Anakin seeing Rex without a helmet on. Getting a good look he saw that Rex had his twin blaster pistols again, as well as three thermal detonators. Rex wore jeans and a hoodie with a silver version of his clone armors chestpeice. It had the Jaig Eyes on it, A sort of mandalorian badge of honor or so he guessed. He knew that some clones of high ranking adopted after earning them. He never understood it entirely.

"Your done with the whole Vader thing then?" Rex asks with a interrogative gaze.

"Yeah." Anakin looks down. "I don't want to be like that again." Anakin explains. He then looks at the forest around them gesturing to it. "This world is a fresh start, and I don't want to become what I was."

Rex sighs. "You know your son Luke talked to me after your death." He states. "He said you'd turned back to the light in your final moments. I'll trust his words, but if you go back down that path..." Rex gives Anakin a cold look. "I'll end your life myself."

Anakin smirks. "Good. You can help keep me on the right path then." Anakin says.

The duo then take a look around surveying the area before checking what equipment they have. Anakin has both of his sabers. One from his time being a jedi, and the other from his time as Vader. Anakin gets a look of shame, remembering who he had become back then. Anakin was wearing the same dark brown robes he wore as a Jedi.

"You know I've just noticed..." Rex states getting Anakin's attention. "You look a lot younger. Younger then I recall ever seeing you." Anakin notes a small puddle on the ground likely from recent rain and takes a look. Rex was right he looked like he did when he was still a padawan, but his hair was long like it had been while he was a knight. He then looks back to Rex.

"You look younger two." He notes.

"Part of the reincarnation?" Rex asks.

"I guess?" Anakin then checked his hand. The one he lost to Dooku all those years ago. To his astonishment it was real. A real hand not the mechanical one he had for so many years. He also noticed something stuck to his sleeve it looked like a wallet of some kind. Pulling it out Anakin opens it. Inside was an I.D.

Skywalker, Anakin

Tatooine St,

Vacuo

Sex M AWI 17 HGT 6.2" Eyes BLUE

Anakin was confused by the information. "Apparently I'm seventeen again." He says raising a brow. Rex eyes the wallet.

"Where did you find that?"

"It was in my sleeve." Anakin explains. "Check your pockets." Rex dose so and finds a wallet as well in his back right pocket.

Skywalker, Rex

Kamino Ave,

Atlas

Sex M AWI 17 HGT 6.0" Eyes BROWN

"Apparently here you and I are related." Rex notes with confusion showing Anakin his I.D.

"We're the same age, related, but yet we're apparently from different... is that a city or planet?" Anakin questions gesturing to the word Atlas.

"We won't find answers in the forest." Rex quips.

"Alright, then lets go find the closest city, or village." Anakin states, getting his off the I.D's for now.

"Agreed."

After about an hour of searching the Duo found a city surrounded by a wall, so they walk to the front gate. At it are four Guards with Strange looking blasters. Maybe slug throwers? Anakin thought. As the duo approaches, one of the guards starts to talk to them.

"Welcome back Huntsman, do you have your Scroll's?" The Guard asks with a somewhat joyous expression.

Anakin was confused as to what a Huntsman was, and a single shared look from Rex told him that Rex was confused as well. Anakin thought of the best way to get out of this...

"OH, Well, About that."
