It was time. The twins needed to know the truth about their father. Amar had told Ahsoka and Sabine everything that one day and felt complete relief by the experience. Of course, she couldn't tell the world or else, word would get back to either Kylo himself or worse Supreme Leader Snoke. Ahsoka had a sit down with Amar the morning after Amar's encounter with Kylo.
"Amar, I felt a disturbance in the force last night. When I went to meditate about it, I was given a vision of Kylo Ren or what I believe to be him in your bedroom. I feel that you and your girls may be in danger." Ahsoka sounded worried as she expressed her concern to Amar.
Amar knew exactly what Ahsoka was talking about, she was describing what had already happened last night.
"Okay, I need to be honest. Kylo has visited me twice before, all he knows is there is some kind of pull in the force that draws him to myself. He doesn't know anything about me or the girls really, I have placed a shield over our force connections to him. Last night was the second time he has visited." Amar knew as she said it, that it did raise some concern for everyone else. Especially, with the First Order being so close to those who sided with the old Rebellion.
Ahsoka was quiet for a while, she had seemed to be in an internal debate with herself, but eventually she spoke.
"I am not going to sit here and presume to know what is right in this kind of situation, but I do feel it does cause great risk for your twins. Do they know the full truth about who Kylo Ren is to them? Or better yet do they know who Kylo is?" Ahsoka was honest with her questions.
"Iris and Tana know they have a father that loves them and they know he cannot be with them at this moment. I feel as they are getting older that it may be more beneficial for them to know the full truth." Amar expressed to Ahsoka.
"Why don't you set them down and go over this crucial information for them about him, if you'd love help, I am happy to oblige, but if not I will take my leave?" Ahsoka offered to Amar as she got up from the chair.
Amar stood up instantly to stop Ahsoka.
"Wait, no I'd love for you to be there to act as a buffer for when I tell the girls. They seem to trust you completely and I respect that. They are very intuitive and I trust their judgement." Amar smiled at Ahsoka as they both headed towards the twin's room.
As Ahsoka and Amar entered the girl's room, the girls sat meditating with each other in the middle of the room. It was a sight to be scene for sure, the twins had levitated off the ground while they were holding hands and while sitting criss crossed. They were in deep meditation when the pair walked in on them. Tana and Iris opened their eyes and slowly receded down to the ground as their mother and Master Ahsoka entered.
"Good work girls, it seems my teaching are being put to good use." Ahsoka placed a hand on each of their shoulders and patted it.
Amar looked at her daughters, Iris and Tana were stunning to her. Amar could not get over how perfect they were to her, they both claimed the best parts of Ben and herself, which made her heart swell.
"Girls, I'd love to talk to you about something very important that I think you both should know now that you are older." Amar looked at both of the girls in front of her and they turned their attention to their mother and sat down on the ground to give her their undivided attention.
"Is it about daddy being here last night?" Iris asked.
Amar knew there was no getting by these younglings, they were too smart for their own good.
"Baby, can you tell me why you think daddy was here?" Amar was genuinely wondering how her daughter could know that.
Iris fidgeted with her wraps on her legs, almost like she was reluctant to give her mother an answer or was ashamed.
"Well, momma, there was a voice in my head that told me. He told me a while ago, but once I felt out through the force when I woke up, I remembered feeling his connection before." Iris blurted out finally.
Amar and Ahsoka immediately locked eyes with each other, they knew this voice was something to concern themselves over. Amar knew what voice she heard but she was concerned with that and the fact that she recognized Kylo's force. Iris and Tana had only been around Ben when they were in her womb at that point. Ahsoka chimed in to help out Amar who was currently speechless from the news her daughter had given her. Ahsoka knew of these voices as well, Amar had explained everything in great detail to her and Sabine the day they first met.
"Do you both hear the same voice?" Ahsoka simply asked the girls to steer their attention away from their mother's concerned look.
Both Tana and Iris looked at each other but Iris replied to Ahsoka.
"Only I hear the voice, but Tana can also feel our daddy's signature." Iris stated.
So Snoke was only able to reach one of them through their minds. Amar really thought her shield would work against Snoke, she knew the force signature to look out for. Amar knew she needed to figure this out, but now she needed to tell the girls the truth about their father.
"Okay, well we will talk about the voice later Iris, but for now I need to be honest with you about your father and who he really is. You know that his memory of us was taken from him, remember?" Amar looked to the girls to see if they were keeping up with her. They both nodded to continue.
"Your father's memory was not only taken from us my loves, he was physically taken as well and made to join the darkside of the force. I know that it's a lot to take in, but I need you to know a little bit more before you ask anything. Your father's name is Ben Solo, but he does not go by that name anymore since he joined the dark side. His name now is Kylo Ren." Amar let the information she just told the twins sink into their growing minds.
Ahsoka and Amar seemed to take a deep breath in, as to anticipate the girls reactions, but they were not quick to ask questions. They seemed to mull over all the information like adults, which was definitely not what Amar was expecting. Finally, the girls started acting like they were coming around to the next stage, questions.
"Kylo Ren, as in with the First Order and Knights of Ren?" Tana asked their mother.
Amar just nodded her head in a yes and the twins looked at each other again. Tears started to fall from their faces. Amar got on her knees and held both of them in her arms and squeezed them tightly as if to never let them go.
"Shh now, I know this isn't easy to take in, but you needed to know the truth about your father. I do want you to know, what you hear about your father will never be completely true. Your father was made to be a pawn in the Supreme Leaders game. He played the both of us. Snoke even use to talk to the both of us in our heads when we grew up just like Iris."
Iris pulled back from her mom and told her, "momma, It's not Snoke who is talking to me. It's our great grandpa."
