Emperor Vader watched as one of his Inquisitors, the second sister dragged a little boy into the room and forced him to his knees. The boy was force sensitive. Very force sensitive. He could feel it. The Inquisitors had been tasked to bring him all force sensitive children, then he would decide either to kill them or have them become an Inquisitor.
The little boy was forced to his knees, tears streaming down his face that was still a little chubby from baby fat. The boy's clothes were ripped and blackened with ash, evidence he had been around a fire at some point.
He had blonde hair and blue eyes. Something about those blue eyes seemed to stare into his very soul.
"Where did you find him?" Vader asked as he continued to look over the boy.
There was something about this boy that he couldn't explain, something familiar... He couldn't explain it.
"Tatooine your highness." She replied.
Vader stiffened slightly at the mention of Tatooine. That place held too many bad memories, too many memories of who he used to be - a man that was now dead -, his mother, and her. He had sworn never to go back to that planet if he could help it.
"Interesting... How old is he?"
"Three or four years old."
"I'm three!" The little boy spoke up.
The second sister moved to strike the boy for speaking but with a wave of Vader's hand, she stopped. Vader stood up and walked down the stairs from his throne then crouched down in front of Luke looked at him again before standing up again.
There was something about this boy and the force was practically yelling at him to figure it out.
"Where did you find him on Tatooine?" He asked.
"Lars homestead on Tatooine, they were ki-"
"Lars? As in Beru and Owen Lars?" Vader questioned, interrupting her.
"Yes, your highness."
Ah. So the Lars had a child. But something still didn't make sense. Yes, it was possible for someone to be force sensitive without force sensitive parents... But the force was nagging him, telling him he wasn't right. There was something else, something much more important about this boy.
Maybe Obi-Wan had a child and hid him with the Lars? No, that foolish man wouldn't break the code, Jedi Order or no Jedi Order. Was the boy a son of a sith? A no rang at him from the force. A Jedi perhaps then? The force rang a yes at him. Hmmm... The son of a Jedi was very rare, especially since most of them were dead or had never broken the code.
So who would break the co- Anakin Skywalker had broken the code. But...but...the baby had died with her. He was sure of it. She had been buried with her baby bump still showing. Her and their child had died that day. So some other Jedi had to have broken the code.
As he thought he could come up with no one but his previous self. But surely this boy wasn't...
"Who is he?"
"Luke Skywalker."
"WHAT?!"
Their child had lived, had been alive this entire time. Before he knew it the second sister was on the floor dead, her neck snapped and he was pulling his child into his arms.
A/N: LUKE AND VADER TIME! XD A lot of these prompts will probably be Luke and Vader/Anakin...because I can. But there's other stuff too of course. There will be at least three more Anakin and Obi-Wan centered ones. I have like fourteen prompts planned out and only three are written so far. XD Anyways hope you enjoyed!
