Kira's POV

Uncle Anakin stood in front of me. He drew his light saber. "Uncle Ani?" I asked. I had watched him kill the other younglings. All that was left was just me and a few others. I stood still as Anakin began to swing his light saber. "Stop!" I heard someone shout as they blocked his attack. It was my mother. "Don't lay a finger on them." She shouted. "Dawn." Anakin said calmly. "I wont let you touch Kira." She said. I had literally no idea what to do. "There's something special about you, Palpatine wants you in custody." He said and pulled my mother into his grasp. "Mommy!" I shouted. "Kira stay back." She said. I began crying, I couldn't lose my mom. My mother thrashed around in Anakin's grip. "Stop squirming." He said and jabbed her in the stomach. "Let the children go and I'll come with you.' She said. "Deal." Anakin said and began dragging her away. "Mommy!" I yelled again. "I love you, Kira." She said.

I woke up sweating. It's been 20 years. Why cant I get over that night? It's quite annoying to have the same dream and wake up the same way each night. Every once in a while I have good dreams, but not often.

I got up and noticed the sun was just rising. I pulled on my white crop top, black leggings, white combat boots, and brown cloak. I braided my purple hair (which was natural) and walked out to the main room. I grabbed a fruit and began eating it as I pulled up my hood and walked outside. I walked out to the garden I had made many years back and began watering. I picked the fruits that were ready to be harvested and placed them in a basket. I got down on my knees and began getting rid of all the weeds. "Kira!" I heard a female voice call. I looked up. Padme. She had taken care of me after my mother was taken away. She's suffering like me, except more. I'm unable to see my mother, she's unable to see her children. Except she knows her children are alive and where they are. "You go inside, Obi Wan has news, I'll finish here." She said. I nodded and dusted off my clothes.

I walked into the small place we called home. "Lets go for a walk.' He said. I nodded and followed him out of the house. "I have a feeling Luke is out here, in trouble." He said.

Father and I were traveling the dessert keeping an eye out for Luke. Tusken Raiders were surrounding his speeder. Father gave out a call. The Raiders ran off. Luke was on the ground. I sunk into my hood, concealing my face. Father felt his wrist and head. He pulled off his hood and looked in the direction of an Astro Mech "Hello there. Come here my little friend. Don't be afraid." He said. I recognized the Astro Mech. Artoo. Artoo beeped. "Oh don't worry he'll be alright." Obi Wan said putting a hand on Luke's shoulder. Luke began to regain consciousness. "Rest easy son, you've had a busy day. You're fortunate to be in all one piece." Obi Wan said. Luke looked up and squinted "Ben? Ben Kenobi? Boy am I glad to see you." He said. "Tell me Luke, what brings you out this far?" Ben asked. "This little droid." He said pointing to Artoo. Artoo gave a series of beeps. "I think he's searching for his former Master, but I've never seen such devotion in a droid before." He said. "He claims to be the property of an Obi Wan Kenobi. Is he a relative of yours? Do you know who he's talking about?" Luke asked.

"Obi Wan Kenobi....... Obi Wan....... Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time." Father said. "I think my Uncle knows him. He said he was dead." Luke said. "Oh he's not dead." Father said. "You know him?" Luke asked. "Well of course I know him. He's me." Father said pointing to himself. Artoo gave a series of beeps. "I haven't gone by the name Obi Wan since before you were born." He said. "Well then the droid does belong to you." Luke said. "Cant seem to remember about owning a droid. Very interesting." Father said. Just then a sound rang out. "I think we better get indoors. The sand people are easily startled but they will come back.... in greater numbers." Father said.

Artoo beeped. "Threepio." Luke said. Luke found his arm and picked it up. Ben and Luke helped Thereepio stand up. "Where am I? I must've taken a bad step." He said. Artoo beeped. "Can you stand? We've got to get out of here before the sand people return." Luke said. "You go without me Master Luke. There's no sense in you risking yourself on my account. I'm done for." Threepio said. I rolled my eyes and pulled the droid up. Same Threepio, definitely. I dragged him along to the speeder. "Be careful." Luke said.

------------------------

Father had gotten into a discussion about Uncle Ani and Padme left the room when Luke entered. I had left to run after her. "I cant do it. Seeing him, he just looks so much like his father." She said crying. I nodded and hugged her.

-----------

Father and Padme had left to go retrieve ingredients for dinner. "What's your name?" Luke asked. I couldn't answer him. My necklace made me unable to speak. "Hello?" He asked when I didn't respond. "Not very friendly are you?" He asked. "Kira is mute." Father said. I glared at him from under my cloak. I wasn't mute, it was just my necklace. I sighed.

-------------------

Apparently Princess Leia was in trouble. Padme decided to stay on the ship, she said she was getting too old for this kind of thing. As we flew to Alderaan in the Falcon, Han Solo's ship, Han decided to question me. "I don't enjoy strangers on my ship." He said. "I don't even know what you look like." He said. "I don't even know your name." He added. "Kira." Father said. "What?" Han asked. "Kira, is her name." He said. "Her?" Luke asked. I nodded. "Why don't you show your face? Are you self conscious?" Han asked. "She wishes to avoid Imperials." Father said. I nodded again.

-------

"You have to dress the part." Han said handing me a helmet. I shook my head. "Kira is fast and quiet enough to stay out of trouble. She can help you on the mission." Father said. "As for me, I need to have a discussion with someone." He said. I knew what he meant. He was going to fight Uncle Ani. I grabbed his arms and shook my head. "I need you to trust me." He said. I shook my head as I hugged him tightly. "Obi Wan, what if something happens to you?" Padme asked. "Then you'll just have to take care of Kira for me." He said. I began crying. "Are you crying?" Han asked. You could hear me sobbing I assumed. "Kira, I'll be fine. I promise." Father said. I pulled off my necklace. "That's not good enough!" I shouted. Everyone was shocked. I dropped my necklace on the ground. "Kira, put that back on. Your mother wanted you to wear it. She wanted to protect you at all costs." He said. "Look where that got her! She should've let me die!" I shouted. "She had lived her life. You had only just begun." Father said. "I don't even know where she is! I don't even know if she's alive!" I shouted. "Kira, calm down." Padme said. "You! You always try to act like my mother! You're not!" I shouted. "She's the closest thing you have." Father said. "I know mom is out there somewhere. She needs us. You cant die. We need to save her." I said. "How long has she been missing?" Luke asked. "About 20 years." Padme said. "She's probably dead." Han said. "No, they wouldn't kill her. Uncle Ani said Palpatine said there was something special about her." I said. "Put the necklace back on." Father said handing it to me. I sighed and clipped it around my neck.

"I thought you were mute." Luke said. "The necklace makes her mute." Padme said. "Then why does she wear it?" Han asked. "It's not something they like to talk about." Padme said.
