Imagine Anakin's Alternative Versions...

Imagine you become Lady Vader

Imagine you are Anakin's Padawan who sacrifices for the Master you love in order to prevent his fall to darkness and become Lady Vader. Together with Obi-Wan and Ahsoka, the anguished Anakin is trying all he can in his power to bring you back to life.

Warnings: based on "The Clone Wars" and "Episode III: Revenge of the Sith", with alterations. Padmé plays the role of an ex flame to Anakin. 🤭

Warnings 2: loosely based on "This Love", "I Did Something Bad", "Look What You Made Me Do", "Wildest Dreams", all songs by Taylor Swift. 😏

Preface.

A cape slips over your body as the hood that falls upon your face hides your features. Your frame is barely perceptible: you are like a ghost, floating over the floor, invisible to some, erased from most people's memories.

You follow your new master, observing his plans in destroying new planets all the while he's architecting the destruction of innocents. You give the order 66. You are not yourself anymore.

You stare the emptiness. But when you fall asleep, you are haunted by his pain, his misery, his frustrations. You want to console him, your good side is willing to spare him of all of this.

Don't. Don't make this to yourself, Master. I did what I did to save you. So you wouldn't suffer.

Then you are awake, bathed in salty tears. Drowned under a menace that not even the Emperor suspects to rise again.

Tentacles of darkness tighten the grip upon you. You suffocate. The image of Anakin on his knees, weeping over you, is terrifying. You want to love him. You've always loved him. You never expected him to love you in return... even though he did. But the dark force makes you forget the love that bounded you together.

This love only makes you feel bad. This love brings the good out of you. You are angry at yourself. You thought you were saving him, but when you jumped in these waters, you never came back to surface. A price you were more than willing to pay if it meant his safety.

You've lost yourself. And when you realize that, darkness eclipses the sun you once were. It's when you dress your dark robes and throws the vine cape over your small frame, that you know. This love might come back to you.

But you are gone.

Or so you thought.

Years before your fall.Anakin's POV.•

When Anakin was told he'd get a Padawan after Ahsoka Tano went away, he didn't receive the news well. He was still grieving the loss of the one who was like a daughter to him. Like the first time, he wasn't receptive to the idea of instructing a Jedi-to-be.

But it wasn't a youngling that would come to him, no. In spite of his resistance, a young woman that was close to be knighted was put under his care. She'd have to go through some trials and because her former master was killed under mysterious circumstances, Anakin was given the responsibility to guide her until the end.

However he wasn't expecting that you would...uh, look the way you did. Your hair proved a stark contrast to how you presented yourself, calm like waters. Red as flame, it was tied in a very elaborated braid much in the same style Anakin saw in the hairs of the ladies of nobility. It was as if that deep shade red called out your personality.

However, your oval face was delicate with fine features; he noticed how your eyes were open, observing and somewhat shy. Your lips, full, slightly opened in a gentle smile when greeting your new master. But to Anakin's horror, he came to perceive your handsomeness in other aspects too. When looking down at you, your Jedi robes seemed to reinforce your curves.
