Pulling Heart Strings~ Obi-Wan Kenobi Fanfic

The end

Obi-Wan was to be sent on another mission. After discovering the hiding spot of General Grevious, on Utapau. Turns out, I was further along in my pregnancy than expected, I was around 8 and a half months. I didn't show much, as my robes were made out of many layers. I managed to say goodbye to Obi before he left for his mission. 
"Obi-Wan, I have news"
"Yes, my dear. What is it" 
"I'm further along than expected, nearly full-term actually." He smiled and pulled me aside so no one could see.
"That's brilliant news, my love. If only I didn't have to leave when you are so close" I placed a peck on his worried cheek. 
"Just promise me this. Return home safely..oh and this is for you" I pulled out a small folded piece of paper and handed it to Obi.
"Oh, it's adorable" He exclaimed as he unfolded the paper. Bruno had drawn a new family photo, this time including his unborn sibling"
"I shall carry this with me for good luck. Now take care of yourself, and contact me if anything happens" Quickly, he folded it back up and placed it in his tunic pocket. We embraced in a quick hug, then he turned to get into his speeder of sorts. 
As I watched him fly away, I couldn't help but have this..sinking feeling in me.

My eyes paced across the room of younglings as our lesson was about to end.
"Lady Skywalker, where have all the Jedi gone?" I looked to one of my students confused.
"I'm not sure, probably all on missions, I guess" The rest of the lesson was peaceful, as it ended in a silent reading session. A sharp, stinging pain erupted from my stomach, causing me to fall in pain.
"Lady Skywalker! Are you alright" The eldest youngling rushed over to my side as I held my swollen stomach tightly?
"Get a medical droid!"

It turns out that I had gone into early labour. It was more painful knowing that Obi-Wan wasn't here with me. With a few pushes, I managed to birth my daughter, little Naomi by myself.
"Nurse..please make contact with Master Kenobi..tell him the news" The medical droid bowed and quickly went to go and communicate with Obi-Wan. I managed to use the force to heal quicker than many women did after pregnancy as I had an unusual feeling. After a few hours, I was up and about, now holding my new, small daughter, with Brunson by my side, grabbing on to my robe. I cradled my child against my chest, wrapped in a blanket. I made my way towards the temple when I heard my comlink go off.
"Theala, darling. The clones have turned against the Jedi, we've been tricked. You must move quickly if you and the children are to survive!" Before I could respond, the comlink shut off. Panicking, I picked up Bruno with my spare arm and carried him up the stairs of the Jedi Temple. It was already nightfall, and no matter how much pain I was in, I fought through it. For the sake of my children. Managing to get to my classroom, I saw the emptiness as I realised that the younglings must've been in the training room. Before I could reach the hallway, I heard blasters being shot and people screaming and yelling. The brightly coloured blaster beams reflected onto the walls all around the temple. Children screamed and the footsteps got louder and closer. I darted over to the training room, still tightly holding my children in my arms. The noise was too much for Naomi, as she began screaming and crying. I watched as my fellow peers were shot down, and my heart began to ache intensively.
"No.." I whimpered. 
"This..this can't be" I watched as my fellow Jedi were shot down, I could hear the screams of terror echoing through the building. My heart was pounding, my body began to sweat.
The younglings weren't in the training room, so I gathered they were in the council room hiding. As I made my way towards the council room, I heard the slashing of a lightsaber and the younglings crying.
The doors opened, and what sight was in front of me, horrified me.
"Ani?" I quivered.
He turned around with teary eyes, the darkness in them. Behind him lay the bodies of my students,
"What have you become!' I yelled, placing Bruno down and handing him his sister. He ran down the hallway, away from the madness.
"What have you done Anakin!" I pulled out my lightsaber that I was allowed to keep when I left the order.
"The Jedi have betrayed us!" He yelled, wielding his own lightsaber.
"No! You've betrayed us! You were warned Ani!"
"If you aren't with me sister, then you are against me!" We began fighting, our sabers illuminating the room. I managed to escape, but barely. I force pushed him into a wall, and ran, grabbing my children as I ran.
"Where daddy?! Bruno panicked, tears running down his slightly chubbed cheeks.
"He'll be here soon, don't worry" I continued to run, until I entered my classroom, locking the doors behind me. Placing my children under the desk, I wrapped an emergency blanket around them. We stayed hidden under the table for what felt like days. 

I heard light footsteps walking towards the doors, attempting to open it.
"Theala, are you in there?" It was Obi-Wan. I raced up from under the desk and hastily unlocked the doors. His face was worried but then relieved when he saw me. I burst into tears as he grabbed me tightly, holding me in his arms.
"Are you hurt" Wheres the children?" He let go and Bruno came out running, holding the small bundle of joy. Obi kneeled down and tightly embraced them. He then took Naomi and kissed the top of her small forehead.
"She's gorgeous. I'm sorry I wasn't there when she arrived" He didn't take his eyes off his daughter
"No, it's fine my love. Please, get us to safety"

I was awoken by Master Yoda, a bright light shining in my eyes.
"Awake you are, good this is" I flung my legs over the bed that I was laying in. I looked at my surroundings, everything was covered in white.
"Wheres Obi-Wan?" I questioned, looking down at Yoda.
"Gone to Mustafar, he has. Defeat your brother, he will" I began to panic
"Master Yoda, where are my children?" I questioned.
"Safe, they are. Asleep, they have been" I set my feet on the ground, holding my head in my hands,
"What have I done?! I allowed my brother to turn to the dark side, I never even sensed it coming" Tears ran down my face as I silently began to cry, my heart-shattering.
"Upsetting, this is. Your fault, it is not. Deceived, we all were young Skywalker."
I stood up, wiping the tears away from my face. I walked over to the crib that held Naomi. Her face was so peaceful. So gentle. I caressed her small red cheeks with the tip of my thumb. I then turned my gaze to Brunson, who lay in a bed opposite to the crib. I wandered over to him, quiet enough to not disturb him. He too seemed peaceful despite the events that he just saw.
"No child should have to go through this" I sighed, gently passing my hand through his short, dark blonde hair.
"Resemblance of Master Kenobi, he is. Strong with the force, he is indeed"
"Yes, he is. I fear that Anakin may track him and his sister down in the future" Sighing, Master Yoda moved closer to me.
"Track them down, he may. Keep them safe, you shall"

A few moments went by, and Master Yoda left the room.
Bail Organa entered the room.
"Obi-Wan has made contact Lady Skywalker" I quickly followed both him and Yoda as we made our way towards the medical bay. Obi carried an unconscious Padme.
"Medically, she's completely healthy, but for reason, we can't explain, we're losing her" The medical droid explained
"Shes dying?" Obi exclaimed.
"We must operate quickly if we are to save the babies" I looked at Obi confused.
"Babies?" Bail exclaimed
"She's carrying twins"
"Oh boy" I exclaimed, placing my head in my hands.

Padme screamed as she welcomed her firstborn, Luke, into the world. Then another scream came, and she welcomed a baby girl who she named Leia. Obi held Leia in his arms as Padme took her final breath. A single tear travelled down my face as I looked at Obi-Wan, who was clearly upset. Deep sadness flowed through the room, and Obi place Leia in her crib.
Anakin had done this. He killed her. Broke her heart into enough pieces to take away her life. A slight touch of anger grew inside of me, but I pushed it down.

I sat next to Obi as Yoda and Bail Organ discussed the children's arrangments.
"We'll take the boy and watch over him" 
Leia was to be taken by Bail and his wife to live on Alderaan and Luke was to be taken to his family on Tatooine.

I walked behind Padmes coffin as she was escorted through the streets. My long, grey Jedi robes flowed behind me as I led Bruno and Naomi through the streets. I knew this wasn't the end, I could sense it.

'''''''''''''''''''''

We arrived on Tattooine, and we walked towards Beru, and Obi handed her the small child. As we left, I looked back on the two suns of Tattooine as they slowly peered over the sandy hills. This wasn't the end of an era, but the beginning of a new one.

'''''''''''''

We raised our children on Tattooine and trained them in the force. Obi was distant for a while but learned to see the good side of things as he would often communicate with Qui-Gons force ghost, just as Yoda had taught him. As for myself, I communicated with my own master from time to time
