Separated, A Star Wars Story

Separated

(From Padmé's point of view)

"It's a boy" Obi Wan said, repeating what the medical droid had said, the first name that came into my head was Luke "Luke" I said with a soft voice, I almost couldn't breathe, a minute later the other baby was born "It's a girl" Obi Wan said with a smile, Anakin had told me that if it would be a girl we would name her Leia "Leia, Anakin always wanted that if it was a girl" I said with a soft voice "There is good in him.... I know there is... still" I said, I suddenly felt cold, I was about to die

(From Obi Wan's point of view)

I looked at her in shock, she was dead, Anakin had killed her, I wasn't angry, I was more like... sad, a few minutes later we were in the meeting room of the Tantive IV, Bail Organa's personal ship "I will take the boy to Tatooine where I will watch over him and protect him at all cost" I said with a slight smile "We will take the girl, we always wanted to adopt a girl" Bail said with a smile "In exile, I will go" Yoda said with a sigh "Well, we've got a plan" Bail said with a smile "Shall we go to Tatooine first, Master Kenobi and Master Yoda?" Bail added with a smile while giving captain Antilles a sign that he needed to go to the cockpit "Yes, Senator Organa" I said with a smile and a nod "We will need to be fast or else Vader or Palpatine will find us" Bail said, an hour later I was on Tatooine, alone, I was I was looking for the homestead of the Lars family, a few minutes later I had found it, I went over to Beru and handed over Luke to her "This is Luke Skywalker, the son of Anakin Skywalker who was the son of Shmi Skywalker, Anakin has turned to the dark side and became Darth Vader, take care of this boy, I will look over him at all cost" I said while walking away, I saw Beru walking to Owen and they were looking at the twin suns of Tatooine, the binary sunset, I went into a hut I had bought, I sat down on a chair and got Anakin's old lightsaber out of my pocket, it was hard not to cry, I shortly after put it in a chest and I would keep it there until Luke was old enough, I thought about what Yoda had told me earlier, that I could communicate with Qui Gon, my old master, only thinking about him already hurt a lot, my mind immediately switched over to Satine, the woman I loved, the woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her, but sadly, most things don't last forever, just like Anakin, I saw him as a son, he was my best friend, and now, he is an agent of evil, twisted by the Dark Side, changed into Darth Vader, Anakin Skywalker is dead, Vader took his place, I saw him burn alive "Is he still alive? Yes, Yes, he must be, I can sense it" I thought with a sad expression on my face, I thought about Padmé's last words "There is good in him.... I know there is... still..." I knew that would haunt me forever, I thought he didn't have any light in him anymore, but, if Padmé says so, I guess I should trust her, but, it was too late, I ruined his whole body, his arms and legs, all gone, his skin, completely shattered by the fire, he probably needed machines to live now, he was now the slave of the Emperor, Anakin was still there, but from now on, he didn't have a chance anymore, he needed to fight for the Empire and the Emperor to survive, or else he would die, what if he would never discover about his children? deep down in my heart I hoped that he would, he was still a good man, he deserved it, Luke and Leia, Leia is now the princess of Alderaan, of royalty, just like her mother, and Luke just a normal farmboy, kinda like his father was, I knew Anakin would never come here, he hates Tatooine, he would never ever return here, he would blow it up if he could choose, but, luckily that isn't possible, or is it? I guess I will never know, I suddenly heard sounds outside, I saw some beasts attack Owen, I immediately ran to there and activated my lightsaber, I pointed it at the group to threaten them or scare them away, but they attacked me, one of them slammed one of their sticks into my left shoulder, it was stuck in it, I immediately killed them with my lightsaber, Owen immediately ran away "What are you doing, Owen?" I asked him while running after him "Don't come close to me or my family, Jedi" Owen said while running away

(From Bail's point of view)

I landed on Alderaan and immediately felt a lot better, I entered our house and immediately said "Hello, Breha? Are you there?" I said with a smile "Yes" I heard coming from upstairs, she was sitting on the balcony "I have a surprise for you, we have a daughter" I said with a smile while sitting down next to her "What is her name?" Breha asked me "Leia, from now on she will be known as princess Leia Organa" I said with a smile "That's right" Breha said with a big smile, I handed over Leia to her and she smiled while looking at her "Hello, princess" Breha said with a smile and a slight chuckle, I saw that Breha was very happy and that made me happy aswell "She will live a happy life here on Alderaan" I said with a smile "That's for sure" Breha replied with a smile
