Anakin Skywalker will not become Darth Vader. Not yet, anyway. Padmé saved him from a lifetime of regret by pulling him out of the fateful battle between Mace Windu and Chancellor Palpatine. But at some point, he still has to decide if his heart lies with the Jedi or the Sith.

Palpatine, undeterred by the loss of his potential apprentice, still devises a way to create the Empire and wipe out the vast majority of the Jedi. He sends various threats directly to Anakin and Padmé to convince them that they and their newborn children are in danger. Fearing for their safety, they split.

For years, Anakin and Leia wander throughout the galaxy, dodging the Empire and searching for a greater purpose. Meanwhile, Padmé raises Luke while working with Bail Organa and Mon Mothma to lead the fight against the oppressive Galactic Empire. Anakin is constantly tempted by the Dark Side. Padmé struggles to help the Rebels succeed. Their children mean everything to both of them.

The story also features other characters we all know and love, such as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ahsoka Tano, Han Solo, and Boba Fett. Most of the story takes place 7 years after Revenge of the Sith.

Please note that I would never change the canon; this story is intended to explore what could have happened, not what should have happened. OCs are used very sparingly. 

Thanks for reading! Don't forget to vote and comment- feedback from the readers is the most important thing to me about Wattpad!

Anakin and Obi-Wan have just rescued the Chancellor and returned to planet side safe and sound. Anakin has finally had his long awaited reunion with Padmé. But it doesn't last for long. The next thing the three of them know, the Force has transported them to a different place. A different universe, to a planet that is known as Earth. Luna Snow Ramsey is nearly fourteen. She is obsessed with Star Wars, friendless, has a past she tries not to think about, and is used to handling everything one way: solo. One night, her world is turned upside down when she meets three people from a place that she had previously thought only existed in her imagination and dreams. Things begin to become steadily more chaotic as time goes on. Luna believes the Force will bring the three back to their proper universe, but until then it is up to her to find a way to keep Anakin from the darkside and warn the two Jedi and Senator of what is to come. It doesn't help that she knows so much about their world and has to be careful of what she tells of their future. From there, things that Luna would normally handle alone are unwilling for her to be able to take care of, and another memory is added to the ever growing pile stitched behind a wall for past memories she doesn't want to think about. Then the Force get's involved. Besbin anyone? I do not own Star Wars, I only own the characters I have created. I am finished with this book, but I am dyslexic, so there may be spelling or wording errors. Please feel free to point them out.

But all this changed when the Force decided to take Xena in another direction. More specifically, the past. Now Xena finds herself in the middle of the Clone Wars, where she meets old friends and new, family she had lost, and family she never knew she had. The future can be changed, and the heartache that the galaxy endured can be spared. Xena makes it her mission to stop the evil that is about to rise. Through all this, Xena learns the importance of trust, family and love. She undergoes trail after trail that opens old wounds and more questions that would hopefully be answered by her new master and fellow friends. xxx A star wars fan fic where the course of the original story is shifted to save the galaxy from great pain and fear.

"A moment passed as the Dark side, always present but always in a slumber, awakened inside of me and every question was answered. Where the abyss had been mere moments ago, steady ground now revealed itself, erasing every particle of the paralysing fear. And on the ground a path now lay, waiting for me to thread. There was no guilt, no shame, no limits. Because this was my lot in life, this was the moment everything I had ever done had been leading me to. Avenging my mom, eliminating Dooku, being with Padmé. I had mistakenly carried the burden of shame for my actions and now, seeing clearly for the first time, I could finally see that what I had done was right. Never again would I suffer from guilt that was falsely placed on my shoulders, never again would I act in vain. When I drew another breath I could ​feel the path unfold in front of me, inside of me, and it was clear, certain. Power surged through my veins, unrestrained at last, spurred on by the hint of darkness slowly rising." -------------------- The events of Revenge of The Sith told from Anakin's perspective. Combining the original storyline with deleted scenes and a few non-canon bits (they do not alter the canon version, simply add to it). I do not claim to be an expert of Anakin as a character. I have written a Revenge of the Sith from Padmé's perspective, feel free to check that out! Feedback is more than welcome :)
