I focused on my pain that I felt on Mustafar as I was in deep meditation trying to focus going deeper into the Dark Side trying to erase her from my mind but I can't, it felt like I was drowning myself in it, the Dark Side is like a drug that I cannot escape and I fully welcomed it but no matter how much I tried, I always feel a the tug of the light pulling me.
I ignore it.
Skywalker was weak and foolish.
That's when I heard the sound of my Master calling me.
I open my eyes as my helmet was sealed back on with the needles pieced deeply into my skin making me think faster.
The Meditation Chamber is the only place where I can breathe without the cursive mask.
I strood out of the chamber that the way it closed looked like teeth swallowing it's victim. I stood behind the black pad fully knowing what will happen next.
"What is thy bidding, my Master."
I knelt down on the black pad as it up as I kneeled before my 'Master' for it's been over a year since Padmé died. I must refrain myself from thinking about her.
She's gone because of me. I was the reason why she died and the Emperor made that crystal clear. I shielded my thoughts from him as I already felt his rath two days ago and it did a great deal of damage to my suit.
My knee dug deep into the floor as I felt immense pain as the suit rubbed hard like sand paper against my flesh.
The suit is claustrophobia as it even burns to breathe as my throat is sore as the Tatooine dessert.
The image of the Emperor pop up looking static in it's blue projection.
Despite the desorted image it showed of the Emperor it was clear to see his disfigured face.
"Lord Vader. I see you have recovered after your 'incident'."
"It won't happen again, Master."
"Yes I made complete sure of that."
I breathed hard.
"I have a mission for you. The Organas' have been of high suspect of helping the pesky Rebel Allience despite their so called 'oath' to our Empire."
Soon mine old fool once I show you the pain that I felt when I lost her.
"Ahh yes, I feel your anger.
The lost of her has made you stronger in the force and so has your determination. That is good.
You will go to Alderaan and deal with Bail. We were supposed to have a meeting with the Senator in two months time but in matters of treason I think he wouldn't mind a little visit earlier than entended.
You know what to do.
Do not fail me. "
"Yes Master."
The blue screen faded.
I was in the clear as my thoughts returned to me.
Curse you Sidious.
Curse you for what you done to me and Obi-wan.
Enough I thought. I've already wasted enough time already. Without further of due I strood out of the chamber and ordered my men to go to Alderaan with me as Master told me to.
Master. A name for someone who owns someone beneath them.
A title that I couldn't own.
Fools they were.
"WAAAAH!"
"Shhhh Luke. It's okay! It's okay! Leia knew you didn't mean it!"
Luke was crying his little heart out for accidently throwing a toy wooden red block at Leia. Luckily calming down Leia was easier knowing her brother well, not intending to harm her in anyway and being strong in general but unfortunately when Luke cries like this,
She cries too.
"Ughhhh.... Why force..... Why do you do this to me..."
I wished my mother and father was here to give me advice or some help at least Artoo and C-3PO is great but I don't know really where they are most of the time...
That's when I had a little idea.
"Hey you two if you quiet down I'll tell you another story about your
father. "
As soon as the words story and father was heard, they looked up with glee and excitement with Luke clapping his hands and cheering up.
Despite their young age they seem to know the meaning of some words that are regarded as a little advanced but with Leia and some cases with Luke knows the meaning straight away like it's supposed to be that way.
The two twins shuffled in my lap as I sat down onto the floor with them in my arms wriggling with energy.
"Where should I begin... Ah yes, how I met your father...
A long time ago, on a planet
far far away, was a Queen.
She was running away from people who were trying to harm her, luckily with the help of her two Jedi she managed to escape. "
Luke gape in awe as Leia was smiling away. I smiled back. They never get tired of the story no matter how many times it was told.
"Unfortunately her ship was damaged badly. So she landed on a sandy planet on the Outer rims called Tatooine and disguised herself as her own handmaiden.
She went with one of her Jedi protectors called Qui-Gon Jin as they looked to find the replacements for their ship.
Unfortunately a greedy Toydarian had the parts but asked too high for a price.
When the jedi tried to reason with him, the Queen met a young boy.
"Are you an Angel?" He said.
"What?" she replied.
"An angel, I heard deep space pilots talk about them they are the most beautiful creatures in the Universe,
they live on the moons of Daago,
I think?"
"Your a funny little boy."
I told them the whole story up to the part where the little boy was going to be trained to be a jedi Knight and how he earned his freedom.
By the time I was finished they were both sleeping softly in my lap as I began stroking their hair.
I wished Anakin was here to experience things like this...
But he made his choice.
One day I hope, mabey he would come back to the light, I could finally come out of the shadows.
With healing and time,
we eventually be a family together.
Not looking back in anger.
That not happening,
is something I can't take as the truth.
