Shmi POV:

Having a new sense of calm, I strode over to the ship, entering the cold dark walkway into the small kitchen, its width only about two arms.

A small counter, cupboard, and fridge. It seemed sir traveled light. The ship was small to begin with, I suspect this was, at one point, a storage locker of some sort.

Letting my thought trail off, I acted on instinct as my vision blured, I could only see the basic outline of objects as my brain had turned off.

As I gathered the ingredients, I heard a high-pitched scream. Like a switch my mind went to protect. The scream would remind me of when little Ani got hurt working for Watto.

He'd scream in the next room, I'd rush in to see my boy with a cut or a bruise...it broke my heart to see him like that, not only hurt, but him looking to me with such sorrow in his eyes.

I could heal his wounds...

But I could not ease his pain...

On pure adrenaline, not thinking at all, I threw down the board I held, grabbed a kitchen knife, and ran to the hallway by the ramp... I stopped briefly as I saw sirs Bo caster hanging.

I grabbed it and ran to the edge of the ramp. The heavy Bo caster all but sunk into my shoulder, I held it so tight. I knew I had to save Satine like I had to save little Ani.

My eyes glazed over as I aimed at the assailant who had held Satine close to him. From the back, I only saw brown hair, white armour, and beige robe like cloth.

Aiming right at the assailants head. I see Satines eyes open, then widen in shock as she calls out to me.

"Shmi no!" She spun to protect the man standing in front of him.

It didn't work too well as I still had plenty of room for a headshot. But on closer inspection, she held him... she was hugging him. Who is this.

He spoke in a soothing and claiming yet cautious and skeptical tone.

"Shmi...?" He looked away, then at me in the eyes, his blue eyes shone alone the realization....

"Shmi skywalker"

It was strange. It was as if he knew me, yet I did not recognize him. Skeptically, I lower the caster slightly, still trained on him, but now more his stomach area.

"Do I know you?" I ask firmly but sofly, knowing I still have the caster. He raised his gloved hands in the air. Before he could speak, Satine beams.

"This is jedi master Obi-Wan Kenobi. He's a dear friend of mine," she grimised slightly at 'friend' but looked back at me strictly.

"He's here to help."

"....Obi...Wan....Kenobi..."

I lowered the caster as I realized who stood before me. The heft of the caster in my off hand was too much, and I dropped it, and I ran instantly to kenobi. He knew why...

Anakin.

(Y/N) POV:

Fleet feet threw you across the green. Your mind ran blank as you charged through the tall trees and small shrubs, every now and then ducking and weaving to avoid debris.

As the clearing was in your sights, you saw the outline of three figures. A small  and thin blond  in beige. A slightly taller brunette, also in beige...

...Satine...Shmi...

One you didn't recognize was a man roughly eye high with Shmi, brown hair, white clothes and...armour.. you didn't know him.
