The Chosen Voice (A star wars SI-ish/crack-ish fic)

[Alenco98]

The Senate building on Coruscant was one of the best guarded buildings on the planet if not the galaxy. With various units of heavily armed senate guards combined with state of the art turrets, cameras, motion sensors and cyber security apparatuses.

Unfortunately for the Senate security team they'd never dealt with a determined Anakin Skywalker. And with his Jedi training at hand these security measures proved no match for him as he easily got past all their security measures under everyone's notice.

Type that code on this line, the voice of Anakin echoed in his head. He typed it just as Anakin instructed and he was in. Lines of information came in, names, pictures, ages, identification documents, sex, height, species and other information that an identity thief would find useful. The personally identifiable information of every senator in the galactic senate as well as the supreme chancellor was now at his fingertips. If he chose to he could easily save this information and sell it on the black market for at least a few million credits.

Man you really are a genius sky guy. He wiped a small bead of sweat from his forehead as he went down the list, searching for the one name they both wanted.

Kriff you asshole. Don't call me Sky-guy.

Careful Sky-guy. Anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.

I'm not angry, I'm annoyed at your bantha-shit antics.

Whatever. He shrugged and continued searching. It was a peculiar situation, a few weeks ago he'd died from cancer, then he woke up in the body of Anakin Skywalker, Jedi prodigy and chosen one. And right before the start of attack of the clones.

Of course he didn't handle it well, Anakin nearly had a mental breakdown when he told him Palpatine was a sith lord. But there was nothing he could do about it yet, he was the supreme chancellor, and even if they told the Jedi they had no proof; and even if they went through with it and killed him Dooku was out there.

Thus capturing Dooku and making him confess was the best way, and the only chance in the foreseeable future was on Genosis, which meant he spent his days practicing lightsaber combat, unlike Anakin he knew he had no business fighting, so he settled on working only on form 3 and outlasting Dooku until Yoda came.

Right now he was working on winning Anakin's trust. Conveniently enough Anakin started having visions a few days ago of his mother's suffering and he had an idea. So now here he was, hacking into the Senate's database with Anakin's help.

How will this help my mom?

We need to give her and her family a new home to settle down in. We contact Padme, ask her to borrow her ship, go to Tatooine, rescue her then ask Padme to settle them down in Naboo. I mean you are a hero there right?

Fair point.

Exactly Sky Guy, that's why I keep telling you that you should trust me.

Don't kriffing call me sky guy!

Language young man, what would Shmi say?

Kriff you!

I'd rather Kriff Padme.

Keep her name out of your mouth!

Our mouth you mean, and believe me we'll get very close to her. He laughed as he continued searching the database. Finally he found her, here we go. Chomell sector, Amidala.

He got his datapad out, he typed furiously as he got all her personal information on his datapad. A minute later he was finished. Ok, now tell me how we can cover our tracks.

Fine, start by closing the program. See that symbol in the corner.

-

He was in his room, his Holo-computer was laid out in the center of his table. The room was an organized chaos, filled with various spare parts and droids Anakin personally made. He was a gearhead's gearhead. If he hadn't been enslaved and not a force sensitive he would have made a living as a mechanic.

Just sit back and relax Sky-guy, I have a PhD in emotional blackmail.

Don't call me that!

What are you gonna do? Force choke me? Jokes on you I like being choked.

Man you're kriffing weird.

Don't worry sky guy, you'll be force choking some Tusken soon so just relax. He input Padme's contact info and called her. His Holo-computer rang, 5 seconds, 10, 20. After a minute she finally answered.

"Hello? Who are you? How did you get my contact."

"Hello Senator Amidala, it's been a while. I'm Anakin Skywalker. I'm calling cause I'm in desperate need of help."

"Anakin? My you've grown. And of course, anything, what do you need?"

"My mom, I've been having visions of her lately. She's in pain, something is happening to her and I need to rescue her. I was hoping I could borrow your ship to go to Tatootine, then rescue her and hopefully settle her down on Naboo. Tatooine isn't exactly the safest place for most people, and hopefully I can help her."

"I see." She nodded and pondered for a moment. "Let me send you a few codes. These are the access codes for my personal ship on Coruscant. I'll let my security detail know you're coming and you can take the ship with you."

"Does it come with a medkit?"

"There's a medical chamber in the ship as well as a medical droid. There's probably a first aid kid there."

"Padme, you don't realize how much this means to me. If she's still alive I'll treat you to dinner in Dex's diner, my master says it's the best restaurant in the galaxy."

"Is that right?" She seemed to smile a little.

"You gotta come with me to find out."

"I'll take you up on that."

"Sounds like a plan, thank you for your help Padme, see you later." He ended the call. And smiled smugly. So Sky-guy, I got your ship and a potential date with Padme. What do you think about that?

I'd like you more if you stopped with that kriffing nickname.

Maybe one day......sky guy.

ARGH!!!!

Shut up, he yawned and made his way to his bed. He sat down and streched his arms. He laid down and closed his eyes, he called on the force to will himself to sleep. A few moments later he felt himself fall asleep then he woke up once again.

Anakin Skywalker stood up from the bed and sighed in relief. He still found it unsettling how he and the voice that dubbed himself Mike switched control of their bodies, but after a few weeks he was somewhat getting himself used to it. And he admitted the voice was very helpful. A few moments later his holocomputer beeped. He accessed it and saw a text message from Padme with the codes she promised. Let's go to the ship Sky-guy

He just wished he stopped with that shitty nickname as he turned off his holo computer and put it away in his backpack.

 

[Daonexus]

Lol this is fun. Annoying sky-guy is very novel. Hope to see more shenanigans by the voice.

 

[Alenco98]

Sneaking in and out of the Jedi Temple was pretty easy all things considered. Then again, it seemed like the Jedi allowed Anakin to sneak in and out like this. He could feel the Jedi temple security guards seemingly tracking him through the force as he went through his usual routine through the air ducts. He didn't bring many things for this trip, he had a backpack filled with a few probe droids for laser training, training swords, as well as clothes, and behind him was a modified combat training droid the voice dubbed Vader which for some reason felt eerily unsettling yet familiar when he used that name.

I've been meaning to ask, how long have you been sneaking out of the temple for? I know we've been doing it every night since I appeared in your head, what about before?

Give me a moment. He stopped for a moment to ponder. A year or two after I arrived.

Really?

Yeah. He continued on his way out.

I expected you'd be pretty popular at the temple back then like you are right now.

It wasn't always that way. Anakin seemed felt uncomfortable for a moment.

If you don't want to talk about it it's fine you know. Though I admit I am curious.

Honestly I never really fit in, he said. They put me in with all the younglings. The lessons were boring and I zoomed through them, all while I sensed envy and disdain from the other younglings. I usually spent my days locked up in my room after lessons.

That hit hard, it was one thing for the Jedi to leave his mother as a slave. But to just let him be isolated from his pupils like that. It just made him angrier at the Jedi, these people basically dropped the ball and the galaxy suffered for it.

Jesus that sounds kriffed up. What about now man?

It's not so bad, like you said I'm fairly popular at the temple. They all like me. But honestly, I still feel disconnected from a lot of them.

Like they only admire you for your abilities and not for you?

He stopped again, they were a few feet away from the exit to the central AC unit of the temple. You know when you're not calling me by that stupid name you make a good point.

What can I say I'm good with people. Something the Jedi seemed to severely lack.

Fair point.

He opened the AC duct with the force and exited. They made their way to one of the various service tunnels, entering it they found another tunnel which led them to the sewers. Using the force Anakin parted the water and they walked through the sewers until they reached their usual exit, he called upon the force one more time and the exit opened.

They emerged from a sewer within a back-alley on the second highest level of Coruscant. Anakin dusted himself off and they went onto the main street. Even though he wasn't in control of Anakin's body he could feel everything Anakin felt emotionally, physically and within the force. Trillions of beings populated Couroscant, they were like little embers in the force, little embers that surrounded the massive bonfire that was the Jedi temple. Though unfortunately he couldn't look around as he wasn't in control right now.

Anakin pulled out his wallet, he had a few hundred credits, a far cry from yesterday. He walked to the nearest street corner and pressed a button. A few minutes later an air taxi came. Inside a Twi'lek was piloting it.

"Where to?"

"The Senate building please." The Twi'lek looked at him for a moment.

"Jedi huh? Hop in." The Twi'lek opened the door and they entered. It was a quiet 30 minute ride. The Twi'lek played some Couroscanti pop music that oddly reminded him of 80s Jpop music. After asking him the artist name he told Anakin to get onto his portable holocomputer and look her up, he had Anakin save a few of her songs onto the Holonet version of Spotify after forcing him to make an account.

You have an odd taste in music.

So?

This stuff is literally for teenage girls.

Kriff you it's good.

Suuuuure. He rolled his eyes and chucked as the voice seemingly sighed in defeat.

The taxi finally came to a stop in front of the Senate building, he glanced at the fare meter which showed a balance of 35 credits. He pulled out his wallet and handed the Twi'lek the credits. "Thank you for your time Jedi."

"May the force be with you."

"Likewise." The taxi then sped off while they walked into the Senate building.

They descended down to the hangar and input the access codes Padme gave them. They of course worked and they made their way in.

Kriff me these ships are all state of the art. They must have cost hundreds of thousands, no millions of credits. He could sense Anakin's inner gearhead bust a nut as he stared at all the ships.

I mean they're senators, they're rich. Anyways remember your mission, Tatooine, mom.

My bad. Anakin seemed to recenter himself and they went to Padme's ship. Conveniently enough it was the same Nubian they used back in episode one. Anakin entered the access code one again and he was in. The ship was devoid of staff, however, as Anakin went to the kitchen to grab some juice he noticed the fridge had seemingly been recently re-stocked.

God I love Padme, looking out for us. Can't wait to sleep with her.

What are you saying?! He was flustered of course, then again Padme always flustered him.

What are you so upset about? You're no virgin Skyguy, at least thanks to me.

Only cause you sneak off at night and go to gambling dens, brothels and nightclubs.

I got needs man what can I say? And hey, its good experience, once you're with Padme she'll be addicted to you.

Its not right man.

What is? Sex?

No. Using the force during it, I know what you do, you amplify their feelings, you're literally making them addicted to us.

So?

SO?! That's wrong!

I don't care.

Kriff me you're an asshole man. He took the jug of juice and took a sip.

Palpatine is an asshole, I'm harmless.

You mean Sidious? He put the juice back in the fridge and closed it.

What did I say? Don't even think about him, if he even suspects we know then we are fucked with a capital F. He is dangerous, not even Yoda can beat him.

How can you be so sure, those force visions you say you had can't be the truth. He made his way out of the room and to the main deck where the ship controls were.

Believe me man, Palpatine right now is the most dangerous man in the galaxy, we need to avoid him at all costs until we're ready.

Then what? He turned on the ship, inputting the codes Padme gave him and watched as the ship was cleared then was lifted up towards one of the many takeoff hangars in the senate building.

What do you mean then what? Then we kill him.

I mean, I know that, but then what? What do we do?

I don't know man, what do you want to do? Take over the galaxy?

Would you help me with that if I wanted to?

I mean I have nothing else to do, I am you in a way. Do you want to?

I don't know. He shrugged as the ship came to a halt and the hangar doors opened. He turned on the ship and it slowly began to ascend. What I do know is the current system doesn't work and that something needs to change.

Amen to that brother. Anakin punched the engine and the ship left the senate building.

 

[Alenco98]

"Oww!" He rubbed his knee where Vader struck him with the training sword. It was to be expected, the robot was programmed by Anakin. Of all things it seemed Anakin programmed it to fight using form 7, the most aggressive of the lightsaber forms. He'd asked his master how Maul fought and had seen Windu spar with other Jedi hundreds if not thousands of time, it was no surprise of course that Anakin had managed to pick up the fundamentals of form 7 just by doing that.

"I am curious though, why didn't you ever use this form 7?" He didn't know lightsaber combat had forms until he even came here, though it explained a lot of things.

The Jedi say its too aggressive and leads to passion. And well, you know the code by now.

"Honestly I'd say its perfect for you, you're naturally an aggressive person."

Anakin didn't say anything, in fact, he felt rather offended. I try not to be ok!?

"Sorry if I struck a nerve man. I'm just saying, you're physically strong, and your aptitude in the force is honestly second to none going by your midichlorian count. If you mastered form 7 to the extent Mace did you'd be a killing machine." He shook the pain off and moved around a little.

Jedi aren't supposed to kill.

"And they spent thousands of years killing Sith, and any other enemies of the republic. I read the histories in the archive you know."

That was different, they were defending the republic.

"Just because it was in self defense they still killed. But they didn't fall to the darkside. Sometimes some people just need to be put down."

The code says fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.

"Then just don't be afraid I guess." He shrugged. "Don't be afraid of killing, don't be afraid of being too aggressive. As long as you aren't afraid, you wont go through that chain reaction. I don't know man I'm just saying."

But what if I do?

"Its a part of life man, I've been afraid in my old life, I've been angry, I've hated. But sometimes you just gotta let go you know, forgive, calm down, face your fear. I remember reading this one book where one of the main characters said bravery is being afraid and confronting your fear anyways. Yeah." He nodded. "Brave, you need to be brave. Face your fear, don't be afraid to be aggressive."

Fair point I guess, What was the name of the book?

"A game of thrones."

What happened to the character?

"He died, but his death led to a war and his family avenged him. Anyways I should probably train, Vader, combat mode, level 2."

"Yes sir." The droid beeped and its eyes turned red, it raised its training sword and it began raining down blows on him.

A few hours later the voice fell asleep and he switched out with him. Like it suggested to him he began to try out form 7. To his shock it felt.....right, he was accustomed to using form 5, finding it well suited for his needs but he always felt there was something missing, something that prevented him from pushing further. But form 7 felt perfect, the aggression, the chaos, the sheer emotion he felt when channeling it. He sat down to medidate shortly after the sparring session.

So.....how do you feel?

Anakin took a deep breath and looked within himself. Better.

Better?

Yeah, better. Calmer I guess. Calmer than I've ever felt in years.

Huh? That's odd. Well that's good I guess. Keep meditating I guess. I remember when I did meditation I was told to acknowledge my emotions then let go.

You meditated?

I dated this girl in college that was into spirituality and other weird shit. Crazy in the shack. Made a good point about meditation though so I picked up good stuff, asides from kinks.

Shut up. He chuckled as he focused.

For the next 2 days as they traveled to Tatooine they trained whenever they took control, Anakin trained in form 7 while the voice trained in form 3. As the voice parried a strike by Vader a beeping sound emerged. "Attention, arriving at Tatooine. Landing ETA 10 minutes."

"Vader, stop."

"Yes master." The robot said as it was about to land an overhead strike on him.

"Ready to save your mom?"

Hell yes.

They went over to the control room, sitting down on the pilots seat as he directed the ship to land with Anakin's instructions. They flew over Tatooine, Shmi had a force bond with Anakin and they were able to close in on Shmi's location. They landed a few kilometers from Shmi's location. He got up from his seat and went to the medical bay where he took the medkit. He then went to the weapons room where he handed a vibrosword to Vader.

"Guard the ship Vader."

"Yes master." The robot nodded as he began to make his way out of the ship, taking the keys with him to ensure no one took the ship.

He emerged from the ship, medkit in hand and immediately wiped sweat off his brow. "Fuck this planet man its too hot."

Tell me about it.

They walked towards the Sand Person camp, he regretted not waiting until night but he felt his mother's pain vividly the closer he got. Even though he wasn't related to her Anakin was, and since they shared the same body she might as well be his mother.

We're just going to walk in?

"We're Jedi, it'll be like crushing ants."

Fair enough.

A few minutes later they were at the entrance of the sand person camp, they immediately roared and began to shoot at him. Fortunately for him since he was trained in form 3 he easily deflected the blasts, causing them to land squarely on their heads and causing them to collapse on the ground. A few moments later more sand people emerged, armed with a mix of gaffis and rifles; they were no match for him to their misfortune, blaster bolt came at him, and blaster bolts were reflected towards them, killing them while the Tusken armed with melee weapons simply died at the point of his lightsaber.

In the space of 5 minutes the village was filled with dead Tusken raiders with the exception of a few women and the children. He glanced around, searching for his mother in the force and finding her force precense in a nearby tent. He walked towards it, opening it and finding his mother bloodied and bruised while tied up in a makeshift cross.

Mom!

He went towards Shmi, gently untying her from her cross and laying her down on the floor. She opened her eyes for a moment and looked at him. "Who are you?" She said weakly.

He put his right hand on her belly and focused, calling on the force and feeling her out. "Several broken bones, muscle tears, some internal bleeding. But not beyond saving. Just give me a minute mom." He smiled at her then put his right hand on her head. "Sleep." She closed her eyes then he opened the medkit. He took a deep breath and focused, calling on the force once again. He closed his eyes and touched the medkit with his right arm, a moment later something called to him and he grabbed one of the many tools within the medkit.

For the next 10 minutes the force guided him, he used the myriad tools to stabilize his mother, patching up her wounds, setting her broken bones and healing the internal bleeding. He opened his eyes, finding that Shmi Skywalker's skin had regained its color.

I'm all done here, you handle it now Skyguy. He laid down on the floor and willed himself to sleep with the force. A moment later Anakin skywalker opened his eyes, then he moved to embrace his mom as he cried tears of joy. "Thank you." He whimpered. "Thank you Mike."

Anytime man, don't sweat it. And with that, the voice now had Anakin's undying devotion and loyalty.

 

[KonahrikYol]

anakin is going to be in big trouble with the jedi council. also padme is probably going to die, zemo(?) I think the bounty hunters name was. poisons centipede things probably kills her... but then again they could deploy a different jedi team to guard her. their is literally 10,000 eligable jedi knights/masters choose from. if plo or quin is chosen, then she most definitely will survive. I don't exactly trust Shakti as her track record isn't very good. she enters meditative trances too easily, and can't exit them efficiently. an mundi wouldn't be a good fit for the role (man is blinded by his dogma, and would end up losing track of said assassin.)

 

[mango363]

Great start, watched. Tho think about moving the fic to the nsfw fic section, you'll get more readers there, also, padme smut.

 

[Hephaestus]

Ya this looks really good lets see where you take this

 

[Alenco98]

His mom woke up after a few minutes of his crying and looked at him. "Ani? Ani is that you?"

He sniffed a little then looked at her, "Its me mom, I'm here."

"I knew....you'd come."

Lets get her out of here man, her wounds are stabilized but she needs medical care.

You're right.

"Come on mom, we're getting out of here." He stood up and carried her with him, then proceeded to place her down so he could place his arm around her and get his other things. He strapped his lightsaber back on his belt and took the medkit back. They walked out into the camp where the remaining Tusken raiders looked at them with a mix of awe and fear.

"You did this?"

"I did mom."

"You didn't have to go so far."

Man she's kind even to her enemies. She's too good for this world. Just tell her you walked in and they attacked you.

"I walked into the camp and they started attacking me, its to be expect-" He felt something and stopped, it was a force presence, raw and unpolished, but a force prescence no less.

Never heard of a force sensitive Tusken.

Neither have I.

He wont be happy, you know what to do. Put her to sleep so she doesn't have to watch.

Got it.

"Anakin, is everything ok?"

He put down the medkit and put his free hand on her head, "Sleep."

She slumped down and slept again, he gently laid her down on the ground and drew his lightsaber. A minute later what looked like a child arrived in the camp, he could sense his fear, his anger, his hatred, his suffering. The boy looked at him and on instinct shot out lightning. Block with your lightsaber!

He activated his lightsaber and intercepted the blast, using the force to concentrate the lightning on his blade. A few seconds passed and the lightning stopped while the child seemingly collapsed from exhaustion.

He's just a kid.

And if he lives I bet your ass he will unite the Tusken tribes and cause trouble in Tatooine, just kill him and everyone else here. But remember, pretend as if you're chopping up vegetables or cutting a steak. Don't let your feelings take over.

He took a deep breath and relaxed, he pictured himself in the temple kitchen in the middle of the night and cooking a late night snack. He leaped using the force, cutting off the child's head. He glanced around at the remaining sand people and did the same. Just breathe man, its ok, chopping vegetables.

He leapt again, cutting down every remaining man, woman and child he hadn't gotten his hands on the first time around. A minute later the camp was empty, only his mom's unconscious body sprawled out on the floor. He strapped his lightsaber back onto his belt and carried her along with his medkit.

He called on the force once he stepped out of the camp, amplifying his speed to that he could reach the ship in a few minutes. He activated the ship, Vader as he ordered stood on the ramp.

"Greetings master, and who is the human you are carrying?"

"Shmi Skywalker, my mother, go the medical room and activate the medical droids immediately."

"As you wish."

Vader ever the good droid followed orders and activated the medical droids. Anakin laid her down on the table and watched as they began to operate on her. He'd done a good job repairing the wounds she'd sustained which made the Droid's job easier. An hour later Shmi Skywalker had been fully operated on, he placed his hands on her, the broken bones, internal bleeding, ruptured organs, broken ligaments, and torn muscle tissue had been repaired and she was good as new. We just need to erase her memories of this, do you know how to do that?

I don't sadly.

Man she'll need some therapy after this then.

Tell me about it.

He called on the force once again, waking her up.

He watched her sit up then look around the ship. "Where am I?"

"A ship I borrowed from the former Queen of Naboo."

"Queen of Naboo?"

"Its a long story, basically, right after I left Tatooine master Qui Gon took me to Naboo and I got into a starfighter and destroyed a trade federation ship that was controlling a droid army that had invaded Naboo."

She looked at him in disbelief, I heard some Holos about a fight in Naboo and Qui Gon having been killed. But I didn't realize you played a big role. I'm so proud of you." She went over and hugged him while Anakin cried tears of joy again.

Sabor the moment man, remember the feelings you held here when fighting the enemy, love will make you stronger than any Jedi. Also ask her where her home is? I know she was freed but I don't know where she lives.

"Anyways mom." He pulled back. "Where do you live? I had to use the force to track you down."

"Ohh, let me show you." She got off the bed and he helped her get to the deck of the ship. Once inside Anakin turned on the engines and they took off. They flew towards Anchorhead, it was one of the smaller settlements on Tatooine, having been reestablished around 80 years ago after being abandoned by the Czerka corporation thousands of years ago. He'd only heard stories of it, that it served to cater to the moisture farmers around the Jundland wastes. They flew for around a half hour until Shmi pointed down to one of the farms, "There." She said. Skywalker circled around the farm then landed on a clearing near the farmstead. He noticed several dozen armed men looking at the ship as it landed. "It seems Clegg was getting some men."

Time for a touching reunion I guess.

Shut up.

"Clegg?"

"My husband, he freed me a few years ago and we got married."

"Does he treat you well? Does he hurt you?"

"Goodness no Ani, he's a kind man, his son is a gem to be around as well. I think you two will get along wonderfully."

"I hope we do." The ship came to a stop and he opened the door. "Lets go mom."

A minute later they walked out of the ship. "Vader, stay inside, no need to protect the ship."

"Yes master."

As they stepped onto the ground he felt someone's extreme happiness as they approached Shmi. "Shmi? Shmi is that you?"

"Clegg, its me!" Shmi ran to embrace the man, he was around his own height and he felt that he loved Shmi deeply as they embraced for about a minute. Clegg then looked at him.

"Shmi who is this man?"

"This is my son Anakin, the Jedi, the one I talked to you about."

"Huh," He stared at him and seemingly nodded in approval as he walked out and stretched his hand out. "Its good to finally meet you son. And believe me when I say you have my undying gratitude for rescuing her."

"Its nothing, anyone would have done the same for their mother."

"That's a pretty fancy ship there son, do all Jedi get ships like that?"

"I had to call in a favor from someone actually. You ever hear of the queen of Naboo?"

"Queen of what?"

Tell him you'll explain over dinner, I'm hungry after all this child murder.

"I think its best if I explain over dinner."

 

[Seyum]

Tell him you'll explain over dinner, I'm hungry after all this child murder.

Click to shrink...

Nr. 1 thing that sounds weird Out of Context.

 

[Lillie Jones]

Man that Tusken incident , Anakin Skywalker spared no one even voice said that will lead to more Tusken raiders coming for vengeful payback, which in the Star Wars the Tusken raiders got redemption or retcon after the Shim Skywalker incident in that other Star Wars tv show is very in a more practical second Tusken raiders clan after a young Anakin Skywalker nearly wiped off the map in Tattooine.
Continue on
Cheers !

 

[TheSwashBuckler]

Can you write it in a way to differentiate who is talking? Maybe use Italics? 'Cause it seems you mixed up some of the Bold letters, or it's just me, but I'm getting confused. The story by itself though, it's an enjoyable read. Looking forward to more.

 

[Alenco98]

For context

This text = Anakin speaking and thinking
This text = the voice speaking and thinking


"And that's how we saved a planet." Anakin looked around for a moment as his family gave him an awed look.

"You've been through a lot." Shmi said as she looked at him with a mix of concern and pity.

It was quite enlightening honestly, and it explained a lot of Anakin's character; especially this Ferus Olin guy. I made a mental list to look for him during the clone wars, if I could recruit him to my side to help me fight Sidious it would be all the better.

"It's fine. Looking back on it I think Olin was right. Especially with everything that happened on Korriban."

At least you admitted it, facing your mistakes is a good first step.

Thanks man.

"Jeez kid, that sounds like a tough life." Clegg Lars interjected. "You know, you don't have to go back to these Jedi. You have a home here, it honestly doesn't sound like a place anyone should be raised by, it's more like a cult."

He's not wrong either.

"I.......I know." He nodded. "But giving all that up, my master, the few friends I have. My destiny according to the Jedi."

"This chosen one stuff sounds like a load of Bantha crap." Owen said. "Yeah the force is powerful and all like you said. But putting all that pressure on someone, I don't know Anakin."

"Ma-" his Holo-computer began to beep. He took it out of his backpack and saw the originating message and sighed. "It's my master. Can I set it on the table Mr. Lars?"

"Go for it kid."

He placed the holocomputer on the table and answered. "Hi master."

"Anakin." Obi wan said in a concerned tone. "Where are you? You've been gone from the temple for almost 3 days."

Just tell him the truth, he's your master he cares about you.

But if I tell him about the sand people I'll be expelled from the order.

So? You have a family outside the order, and I'm sure you can ask Padme for a job as a bodyguard so you won't be a homeless bum, just be true to yourself and your master.

I hope you're right.

"Tatooine. I had visions of my mother in pain. I went there and found she was kidnapped and tortured by the Tusken raiders. So I stormed into the camp and rescued her."

"Anakin....." There was worry in his master's voice. But at the same time it was relief. "Anakin, you know this is against the rules. I understand you went into the order when you were older than most younglings. But I will have to report this to the council. When will you be back?"

"I'm not sure. I borrowed a ship from Padme and asked for her to help me resettle my mom on Naboo. But I didn't expect her to be married and with a family so I need to call her again."

"How did you even get Padme's contact info?"

"Hacked into the Senate building."

"Anakin." Obi wan sighed in frustration. "More to report to the council I guess. Do what you need to do then come back to Coruscant as soon as possible."

"Yes master." He turned off the transmission and the call ended.

"It really does seem like a cult." Beru interjected. "What's wrong with being in contact with family, or rescuing them?"

She's not wrong either.

Ok fine, they have a point.

You should tell them about Naboo.

Fine.

He looked over to Mr. Lars. "Mr. Lars, like I just said in the call. I have some influence with the former queen of the planet, and she and I are both popular in the world. I can probably arrange for you all to be resettled there on a small estate, it's a safe world in the Mid Rim, not too far from Tatooine. And most importantly you'd be safe from Tusken Raiders. Would you be interested?"

"The mid rim huh?" Clegg contemplated it for a moment. "Owen, Shmi, would you two be ok with it?"

"I wouldn't mind." Shmi answered." If it means being closer to Anakin and bringing him peace of mind then of course."

"I like the idea, but I don't want to abandon Beru." He glanced over at her, he could feel the love between Owen and Beru.

Just tell them to get married, you can sense they love each other, hell I can sense it too.

"You two could get married." He interjected. "I can sense the love between you two. You're meant to be."

Beru blushed as she looked away from Owen. Tell Owen you sense that she wants to be with him. EMOTIONALLY MANIPULATE MAN DO IT!!

"I can sense she wants to be with you brother, you'll have everything you need in Naboo to give her a good life. On my honor as a Jedi."

Owen looked at him then back at Beru. "Beru, do you wanna get married?"

"Yes! Yes!" She ran to him and kissed him passionately.

"Time to plan a wedding," Shmi said.

"I'll buy the cake." Clegg said shortly after.

"I need to call Padme."

He input her contact info on the holocomputer and called. A minute later she answered. "Ani?"

"Hey Padme. Good news, my mom is safe, here." He input a few commands and the holocomputer included Shmi's image onto the call.

"I remember you." Shmi said. "You were the handmaiden that was with Qui Gon. If I known you were the queen I would have served a better meal."

"Don't sweat it Mrs. Skywalker, you've done more than enough by raising Anakin right. Did he tell you what he did for Naboo?"

"He did, and I couldn't be prouder."

She came over and played with his hair while he laughed.

Wholesome.

Shut up I'm having a moment. Shmi stopped after a few seconds and Anakin cleared his throat. "I called because I need to modify a few things about mom's living arrangements on Naboo."

"Sure, what happened?"

"My mom is married now and she helps to run a small moisture farm. I was hoping you'd help settle down her family in Naboo as well, and perhaps provide them a small farm to work on."

"Sure, I can have the Queen give them a small estate."

"An estate?" Clegg asked. "That's insane, maintenance alone would ruin me."

"Who was that?"

"That was Mr. Lars, my mom's husband."

"No need to fret Mr. Lars. The royal family would gladly provide you with a yearly stipend to help with costs as well as a settling in allowance. Believe me when I say my world owes your stepson a great debt, no relative of Anakin will ever go hungry on Naboo."

Anakin pressed a few buttons and Clegg's projection was now on the call. "I see, apologies for the outburst your majesty. I appreciate the gesture."

"No worries. And Anakin."

"Yes?"

"I would like to meet your family in person and have them share a meal with my own. When will you all arrive?"

He looked over at Clegg. "A few days." He answered. "Just need to sell the farm and have my son marry is all, then a farewell party."

"I see. I will be leaving for Coruscant in 2 weeks time to vote on a bill in the galactic senate so I hope you can join us."

"It would be my pleasure." Clegg answered.

Anakin then ended the call and felt like he was 10 thousand feet tall. He'd saved his mother, was going to meet the woman of his dreams and best of all, his family would be safe.

-

The planet Naboo looked like a small green dot as they emerged from Hyperspace. It hadn't taken too long to get their affairs in orders, selling the farm, marrying Owen and Beru then hosting a celebration/farewell party.

He pressed a few buttons on the ship as they got closer to Naboo. He got into contact with Theed spaceport.

"Theed Spaceport this is Royal one requesting permission for landing."

"Royal one? Skywalker is that you?"

"This is Anakin Skywalker yes."

"Port 113 is ready for you. Take her down when you're ready. The queen and Senator Amidala are waiting for you."

"Thank you." He glanced at his mother and her family and he turned off the comms. "See what I mean, I'm popular here on Naboo."

"Well I'll admit I was skeptical." Clegg Lars said. "Good for you son."

"Thanks dad." It felt weird calling him that, but it was the truth." He grabbed the controls and gently descended down through the atmosphere, a minute later they were overflying Theed.

Man it looks better in person.

Didn't know you were into architecture.

I'm not, can't a guy just admire a city?

Fair point.

He flew down onto the spaceport, gently setting her down on the specified platform. He turned off the ship and glanced back at his family. "Welcome to Naboo."

They got their possessions and descended from the ship along with Vader and Threepeio. Just as the space traffic controller for Theed spaceport said, Padme and the queen were waiting for him with an honor guard.

Keep cool man, I know you've been in love with her for years. But KEEP, IT, COOL!

You try meeting the only woman you've loved after 10 years asshole.

Bitch just calm down.

Don't call me a bitch, asswipe.

Wow, you learned something other than kriff.

Who do you think taught me? Cunt.

He walked towards Padme and her group with his family behind him. "Senator, your majesty." He bowed his head slightly.

"Ani no need to be so formal." Padme laughed as she looked at him, "my you've grown."

I focused on Padme, I could feel she found Anakin attractive. She thinks you're hot bro, keep at it.

Really?

Yes, now calm down.

"Thank you Padme, this right here is my family." He turned to his mom and her family and she went to greet them.

"It's a pleasure to meet you all."

"Likewise Padme." Shmi went to shake her hand but he could tell she and the whole family felt very awkward. Then again, they were basically commoners meeting a senator.

"Shall we go to the palace? I believe we never did get to properly honor Anakin after his deeds all those years ago."

"Of course, we would be honored." Shmi said as Padme motioned for us to follow her.

They paraded us through the streets of Theed. It seemed word spread of our coming and the people wanted to see us. They treated us like rockstars, cheering for us as they saw us pass. Most of all a lot of the women over in Theed found us attractive.

Might I advise you to seduce a few handmaidens and servants.

What the kriff, why?!

So you can make Padme jealous. Make it obvious you're sleeping around.

How the hell will that help us?!

I don't know man, I just find making people jealous makes them want you more. Just use the force man.

No.

What do you mean no?!

No! I only want Padme, I don't want anyone else.

But Anakin you sh-

No! And that's final.

Fine. Asshole.

Kriff you too.

Dinner was a decadent affair, a multi course meal consisting of the finest dishes and wines Naboo could bring to bear. Naboo was despite it's relatively isolated position in the mid rim a rather wealthy world and the culinary arts were as heavily regarded here as was architecture and art, with Naboo blasting some of the finest chefs in the galaxy.

Fuck me that was amazing. The voice rubbed his belly as Anakin finished his last meal.

Tell me about it.

Ask for seconds.

Nah I'm full.

Come on!

No.

Fuck You, I mean kriff you.

Rude.

Anyways, if you want to spend more time with her tell her you had a vision of an assassination attempt on her. I'm not lying though man, it's going to happen soon, and with the changes we've made she might need us by our side.

What do you mean by changes.

Well.....how do I explain it. You remember how I told you I came from a galaxy far far away in the future?

Well, yeah.

You see, originally your mom was supposed to die. You came too late, but with me at your side you rescued her. However, when you originally came you came with Padme.

Why with Padme?

Because you and Obi Want were assigned to protect her by Sidious, well Palpatine but you get what I mean.

Why would he want us to protect her?

He wants to seduce you to the darkside. And what best way to do it that by putting you close to the woman you love and killing her? You'd give into your anger then boom.

That fucking bastard! He gripped his lightsaber tightly. He kept a cool stoic face at the dinner table but he wanted to explode.

Calm down Sky-guy. Like I said, we're with her now. We can protect her. So you are going to listen to me and tell her you had visions and stay by her side, ok?

Fine.

"Senator. A word with you in private."

"Sure Ani." She got up and left the room and he followed her. They found themselves in a hallway right outside the dining room. "What is it Ani?"

"You remember how I told you I had visions of my mom suffering?"

"I did."

"I had more visions now."

"Of what?"

Your ship exploding when it arrives on Coruscant. Say it and follow the script I tell you.

"Your ship exploding when it arrives on Coruscant."

Tell her someone that looks like her or one of her handmaidens died in the explosion.

"In the vision, I saw someone that looked like you die in the explosion. I'm not sure if it was you, or one of the handmaidens. But I can sense someone is plotting against you."

I'm not asking you to not go to Coruscant. But to allow me to escort you back.

"I'm not asking you to not go to Coruscant. But to allow me to escort you back."

He could feel the concern Padme had. And the appreciation she felt for this information. And deep down the attraction she felt. Use the force, amplify her attraction for you.

Fine. He reached out towards the force, sending it towards Padme and twitching his right pinky finger to get it to work. He felt it reaching deep into Padme's heart, the attraction she felt was seemingly inflamed and on the brink of exploding.

More.

Anakin did so. And Padme just continued looking at him. "I appreciate what you bought up. I would love to have you escort me back."

Say, no need for quarters. I can always sleep on the floor of your room. Unless you want me to keep your bed warm. Smile then Amplify her attraction using then force.

"No need for quarters. I can always sleep on the floor of your room. Unless you want me to keep your bed warm?" He smiled and did as the voice said while dying of cringe inside. Padme meanwhile seemed to melt and she stared deep into his soul.

Now kiss.

He leaned forward and kissed her.

Capture phase is complete Sky-guy. Enjoy.

 

[Francis]

nice hope for more

 

[KonahrikYol]

@Alenco98
shmi/padme dialogue lines are duped dude... also anakin offered an estate. then turned around and asked for a farm from padme, who then offered an estate...

 

[Alenco98]

For context

This text = Anakin speaking and thinking
This text = The voice speaking and thinking.

The Varykino countryside estate that the Naberrie family called home was a lovely estate deep within the Naboo countryside. When Padme heard of the Skywalker family and their little dilemma on Tatooine, she immediately petitioned the queen to Partition a small plot of land within the countryside to be set aside for the Skywalkers.

An estate was currently being built in the traditional Naboo style and would take a few weeks to bet set up. In the meantime, the Skywalker's were treated as honored guests within the Naberrie estate.

Anakin Skywalker meanwhile woke up next to Padme. In the week since they'd arrived they'd shared a bed every night and the two had been inseparable. No one said a word however, that an esteemed war hero and a beloved former queen were in a relationship was seem as a natural fact of life.

God she's a freak in the shack. You got good taste Sky-guy.

Shut up.

Come on, you enjoy it too. And it's not like she's cheating on you. We share the same body after all.

But you do that thing with your tongue down there. Poop comes out of there, it's gross.

It's hot.

He got off the bed and stretched for a moment. He went and got changed into simple robed and stepped out onto the large balcony besides their room. Vader stood there, having been turned off last night. He pressed a few buttons and he came to life.

Anyways time to work out.

"Vader, combat simulator, level 3."

"Yes master."

A few moments later Vader came to life. He sprang at him, coming at him with a mix of forms 4-7, the aggressive style pushing him back.

He immediately got into form 3 and began defending, weathering the barrage of strikes and countering with his own. He was going to get past level 3 today no matter what.

Form 3 had been the next logical step in lightsaber combat. Eschewing the 1 on 1 combat form 2 was focused on and focusing on a mix of anti blaster defense and defending against an enemy lightsaber combatant.

It was a very simplistic form, and a master of the form could even hold off hundreds of blaster wielding enemies at once. Though he didn't like testing out it's limits yet. For now however, holding off against Vader was hard enough. He felt his forearms slowly going numb as Vader rained down a barrage of blows. He used the force to soothe the pain he felt while looking for an opening.

Form 3 wasn't the only form the voice learnt, he drilled with a few basic Makashi slashes and stabs, and since he felt what Anakin felt had in a way learnt the basics of form 7 as well.

He found a gap within Vader, raining down his own barrage of form 7 slashes and pushing him back for a moment, only for Vader to catch his footing when he overstretched and pushed him back again.

They repeated this back and forth until he finally found a gap, exploiting it and parrying one of Vader's strikes. He pounced, getting past his defenses and landing a strike on his neck. Vader stopped immediately after that, "fatal wound delivered. Congratulations, you have graduated from level 3."

He gasped for air and collapsed in exhaustion. "I did it!" He yelled in between breaths.

Not bad, you're getting better.

What do you expect Sky-guy, you're the chosen one, I just make good use of your body. Especially when I'm the one taking a turn with Padme.

Ohh Kriff you.

He slowly got up and collected himself. As he turned to head back in he noticed padme standing at the entrance that led to their room from the balcony.

"How long were you watching sexy?"

"Ani, stop that." She blushed. "A few minutes."

"Glad to have an admirer." He walked past her and spanked her. "I'm going to shower, wanna join me?" He stripped down, leaving his clothes on the floor, his naked body facing her and he felt himself getting a little chubby down there.

Padme stripped as well and walked past him as she brushed Ani Jr. with her hand.

He emerged from the shower around a half hour later. He dried himself off as Padme cleaned herself off.

Bro check it out it's dripping down her leg.

It's not funny.

Come on man, we're literally the same person.

How would you feel if someone else was making love to the woman you love?

Buddy we are literally sharing the same body. She thinks she's only fucking one dude.

Well she's not!

Ani calm down you're overreacting. Think of this as my helpers fee. Need I remind you I helped you save your mom, and I helped you seduce the senator. Hell I even let you have her the first time around.

God you're such an asshole. She's mine!

And she is yours, we, are, sharing, a, body. Relax man.

Whatever just get changed.

He returned to his chambers, finding a change of freshly cleaned clothes. He put them on and went to check his Holo-computer, finding a missed call from his master.

Ohh great, he's going to be angry.

Whatever, he shrugged. We're probably going to be expelled from the order. It'll be better for us that way.

So we can get closer to Sidious.

Precisely.

Your call, I just don't like it honestly. If he's as dangerous as you say I'd be getting the hell out of his sight.

We need to kill him anyways. If he and Dooku die the coming war will end. He pressed a few buttons and called Obi wan. A minute passed, and his image appeared on the screen.

"Master."

"Anakin. Has your business on Tatootine concluded?"

"It has, though something else came up."

"Anakin, you're already on thin ice with the council after what I told you. You need to come back."

"What if I don't want to?"

"What?" He seemed aghast. "Anakin, the Jedi order is your life. You can't just not return, you're the chosen one."

"It's not my life. I have a family, and a girlfriend."

"What do you mean girlfriend?"

"Senator Amidala. I've been pretty busy so to speak." He winked at him and could feel his exasperation.

"Anakin," he shook his head. "This goes against everything the code teaches us."

I don't like seeing him so disappointed.

Well we have a life too, the Jedi aren't that important. Saving the galaxy from Sidious is.

"Well, then maybe the order should have rescued my mom. Instead of letting her languish in slavery. If I am the chosen one then maybe the order could have at least treated my mom with the courtesy of being the chosen one's mother. But what do you all do? You abandon her. Let me tell you exactly what happened when I got there."

He went on and told him about the visions, his mother's rescue, the state she was in and the subsequent massacre of the sand people. "It wasn't just the men master, but the women, and the children too. They were animals, and I slaughtered like animals. I didn't hate them, but I didn't feel anything either, I just wanted my mom back. The order failed me, how about you tell them that."

His master was at a loss for words, "Anakin. I'm...... I'm sorry. You're right I suppose, the order failed you. I failed you. I will report this to the council, I feel you're veering very close to the dark side. Please, come back to the temple when you return from Coruscant. Please, let me help you at least, you're my brother."

Well that's unexpected. He does care.

I mean he is my master, he practically raised me.

The rest of the Jedi will call for your expulsion though. Maybe not Yoda.

Well like you said, we need to get close to Sidious.

Glad to have you aboard.

"Thank you master, I'll be returning with Padme." He turned off the transmission. He looked back and saw Padme emerging from the bathroom.

"What happened Ani?"

"My master. I told him what happened on Tatooine."

"Everything? Even the massacre of the Tuskens?"

"I did." He nodded. "They'll probably expel me from the order honestly. It'll be fine." He shrugged. "If they expel me we can get married." He called on the force, wiggling his pinky finger to amplify the feelings of love she held for him.

"Really? You'd....you want us to marry?"

"You're the only woman I'd love to spend the rest of my life with."

She ran to him and kissed him. "Yes....yes...of course I accept."

And like that, she will be Mrs. Skywalker

Thanks man.

No problem. Glad to see you're not all high and mighty about using the force to manipulate people.

Well you did teach me to do that.

Ahhh corrupting the youth.

A few days later, the Naberries and Skywalker's along with Obi Wan stood in a courtyard overlooking the lake next to the Naberrie estate. Maxiron Agolerga, a local holy man stood in front of them as they kissed once he finished the rites of marriage per the traditions of Naboo.

He'd received a message from the Jedi council the day before his wedding ordering him back to Coruscant. But he was past caring at this point. He told them he was marrying Senator Amidala and had submitted his official resignation from the order. He even invited Obi Wan to come to the wedding which he surprisingly did.

Both families and even Obi Wan clapped for him. Though he could sense Obi Wan was saddened by his decision.

"Sorry for not being able to speak to you directly master. It's been a little hectic." He said once the ceremony ended and they were in the living room of the Naberrie estate. He took Obi wan to a hallway outside the room to speak.

"I can tell. From a Padawan to a married man. I....." He looked pretty saddened. "I wish it could have been different."

He put his hand on his shoulder. "It's ok master. You trained me well. Even if I'm not a Jedi I'll still help out any Jedi in need."

"I think you're the one in need Anakin. I can feel the dark side surrounding you. I understand you were angry at what happened with your mom. But what you did....."

You broke no laws, you were outside of republic space and local Tatooine law doesn't say anything about killing Tuskens.

"I did not break any laws, I was outside of republic space and the crime bosses running Tatooine don't care about Tuskens. She was my mom Obi Wan. What would you do if I was beaten and tortured like that? Wouldn't you be angry?"

"I....I admit I would be enraged. But giving into rage like that."

"I wasn't though, I defended myself when they attacked."

"And the women, and the kids?"

"They would have died anyways, it was a mercy killing."

He looked pretty aghast and somewhat disgusted. "Anakin, they were women, kids. What you did, it's evil."

"So is what they did to my mom."

"It didn't justify it. Anakin, please, you may not be a Jedi anymore but listen to me. At least let me help you. I don't want you to fall to the dark side. You're teetering on it."

You know he means it, he wants to help you. Let's hear him out. We should at least maintain cordial relations with the Jedi.

"If you say so master. I'll take your help. Let's enjoy the celebrations now though, I'm a married man."

The next few hours they spent drinking, eating, and singing cheesy Karaoke songs. For the first time in his life, Anakin Skywalker felt fullfilled, surrounded by the people he loved the most. He wouldn't let anyone take this from him, not the Jedi, nor Sidious.

 

[Vanbers]

"Hey Padme. Good news, my mom is safe, here." He input a few commands and the holocomputer included Shmi's image onto the call.

"I remember you." Shmi said. "You were the handmaiden that was with Qui Gon. If I known you were the queen I would have served a better meal."

"Don't sweat it Mrs. Skywalker, you've done more than enough by raising Anakin right. Did he tell you what he did for Naboo?"

Click to shrink...

"Thank you Padme, this right here is my family." He turned to his mom and her family and she went to greet them.

"It's good to see you again miss Skywalker."

"Again? I'm sorry senator but it's the first time we've met."

"You don't remember? I was with master Jinn on Tatootine."

"Wait, you were the queen? I thought you were a handmaiden?!"

"Well I was wearing a disguise."

"If I'd known you were royalty I'd have cooked something better."

Click to shrink...

You repeat the same content here

 

[Alenco98]

This text = the voice speaking
This text = Anakin speaking

He was inside the hangar in Theed where Padme's ship was. They were leaving for Coruscant tomorrow. He'd been going every day for the last few days, he had a bomb detecting droid on him, it hadn't detected anything so far but he was taking no chances.

He spotted one of the guards along with a woman that looked oddly familiar. He focused, calling on the force to enhance his vision. A moment later he spotted her and realized who she was.

"We have our assassin." He whispered to himself as he shielded himself with the force and followed them onto the ship. He saw them, then the woman pulled out a small device and planted it underneath the controls of the ships.

Meanwhile he activated his own recorder and began to record the conversation between them.

"Looks strange for a listening device."

"It'll hack into the ships comms, it'll catch everything that's said on this ship. We'll be able to expose Padme with this." The woman said.

Want me to do a flashy entrance or wait until they're done?

They're trying to kill my wife, stop them!

Fine.

"That's a bomb guardsman." He stood up and blocked the entrance to the control room. He streched both hands out and called on the force. He force choked the bounty hunter with one hand and used the other hand to break her limbs, dropping her on the ground while she caught her breath.

He called on the force and pulled the device back and took a look at it.

Rodian mining explosives, diluted anti-matter and tibanna gas. This was going to blow up the ship.

"You have a lot of explaining to do guard." He glanced at him, the guard immediately fell ok his knees and begged.

"I'm sorry! She said she was a journalist and wanted to get a scoop on the senator."

Huh, looks like he's telling the truth Ani.

I don't care, he tried to kill my wife.

"The senator is my wife guardsman. Now turn on your comms and call for guards to take this piece of shit here away. As for you."

I say just reassign him to city watch, he didn't do it on purpose.

Fine.

"I'll have you reassigned to the city watch."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you."

He turned on his comms as the guard called for backup. "Master I caught the assassin. Is Padme ok?"

"She is, just fell asleep."

"Good, thanks master. I'll interrogate her."

"Copy. Out." He ended the call.

He walked up to the bounty hunter who was grunting in pain and kicked her in the ribs. "I've been tracking you for weeks. Now, where's Jango Fett?"

Who?

The assassin, bro was so lazy he subcontracted to her. Typical Mandalorian.

"How do you know that name?" She groaned.

"I'm a Jedi, I've been tracking you for weeks. I've read your thoughts, now answer me."

He levitated her using the force and laid her face up. "Jango will kill me if I tell you."

"And you think I won't?"

"You're a Jedi. You wouldn't."

Watch this, lesson one on torture. He smiled and he lit his lightsaber the stabbed her right hand, causing her to scream in agony as the guardsman looked in horror.

"You don't have to be in here." He glanced at him.

"I'll be outside the ship." He left them alone then exited the ship.

"I can either kill you slowly, or you tell me where he is."

I think this is a bit too far.

You're the one that followed my lead and killed women and kids, what, is a little torture too much for you?

Fine just make it quick.

He could sense the fear in her. Then she nodded. "Ok....ok I'll tell you. Jango Fett is on Coruscant, his ship is called the slave one. It's a Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft from Kuat systems, the only one of its kind."

He shut off the transceiver and used the force to make her fall asleep.

We got what we needed then. He let her go and she collapsed on the floor, he heard some more cracking bone noises and her original form was revealed.

Man she's ugly.

Tell me about it.

A few minutes later Naboo security showed up. "Here." He handed the explosives to Panaka. "The assasin threatened this guardsman family here." He pointed at the guardsman. "I think he should be reassigned to the city watch, perhaps a promotion to make up for his drop in salary, not his fault she threatened him."

Really, a promotion.

Hey man she was pretty before she turned, no wonder he became thirsty, I would too.

We're married!

Whatever.

"I want guardsmen on this ship 24-7, no one comes in alone, 2-3 people accompanying whoever enters at all times."

"Yes sir." Panaka nodded and Anakin left the ship.

He returned to the Theed apartment where Obi Wan was staying with Padme. "Here." He threw the audio transceiver at him. "I have the assassin's name and his location."

Obi Wan turned the audio on, he was somewhat horrified at the end of it.

"You tortured her?"

"I wanted to get the information out quick."

"It's not the Jedi way."

"I'm not a member of the Jedi order."

"I know we've been meditating and I've been helping you but you basically undid whatever progress you did."

"I know." He shrugged. "On the other hand it means we can spend more time together master."

"You need to take this more seriously!"

"What? She was trying to kill my wife. So what if I was a little upset? And before you say it, fear leads to anger, anger to hate, hate then suffering. But I wasn't afraid, I was just a little angry and annoyed. But relieved I caught her. Check me using the force, see if I'm lying."

Obi Wan focused and called on the force. He sensed him, seemingly peering deep into him. A moment later he looked at him, confused.

"What?"

"Why are there two of you?"

"Sorry?"

He focused again, he felt the focus seemingly be on him then deep inside. He looked very concerned and drew his lightsaber. "Who are you?" He seemed very upset. "What have you done with Anakin?"

"What?"

I think he's onto you. Well, us really.

Fuck.

 

[KonahrikYol]

oof. time for a clash, and getting beaten six ways to Sunday by a master of Soresu. Anakin's best bet is to try and keep his distance from Obi-Wan. yet not too far, as to allow him to use force techniques. while keeping a safe distance, try to explain (not like Obi-Wan is going to listen to him. force ghost possessions are a thing.). anakin is still going to get beaten, an probably taken to corusaunt. SI!Spirit is probably going to get purged from anakin if he does end up on corusaunt.

 

[Lillie Jones]

thanks for the chapters

 

[Alenco98]

"Are you really going to attack an unarmed man?" I raised my hands up as Obi Want pointed his lightsaber at me.

"What did you do with Anakin?"

"I didn't do anything per se, I am sharing a body with him. Let me switch with him."

He seemed very skeptical and got into a battle stance. "Search your feelings master Kenobi I'm not lying. Here." I took my lightsaber out and threw it in the floor. "Let me switch with Anakin."

Please calm him down for me.

I'll see what I can do.

"Do it, now."

I sat on a nearby couch and closed my eyes, I put my right hand on my face and willed myself so that I could sleep. A moment later Anakin took over.

"Hey master."

"Anakin." He shut off his lightsaber. "What was that? Who is that? How long has he been with you?"

"It's a long Story."

He told him about me, how long I'd been with him and how I'd guided him. Though I told him to not say anything about Sidious, I would handle that.

"Hah." Obi Wan shook his head. "This is hard to believe as is Anakin. A voice from a galaxy far far away from the future. But i don't sense any lies. Why didn't you tell me though?"

"Because my mom was in danger, and the voice, Mike, said my mom would die if I didn't go. I know you told me to let go when I told you about my nightmares but I just couldn't. So I did all that."

"Including the massacre?"

"Yes, yes. Well, Mike said to kill the women and kids."

"This voice, Anakin it's corrupting you. No wonder you're so close to the dark side."

"He said to accept your help. He said you cared about me. It's why I've let you stay with me to help me sort this out."

"Once we get back to Coruscant I'm taking you to the council."

Hell no, no way am I seeing them. I don't know what they'll do to me.

Come on, I don't think it'll be that b-

No! I don't trust them, maybe Yoda at most but that's it. Are you really going to screw me, after everything I did for you?

Fine I guess.

"Anakin? I sense you're conflicted."

"He said he doesn't want to see the council."

"Anakin you have to see them."

"He said no, I'm not doing that to him. If he doesn't want to he doesn't want to."

"What about you? Do you want to?"

Would the council even accept you after what you did? They would have never allowed you to rescue your mom or be with Padme. They don't deserve you. Obi Wan cares about you but he's too indoctrinated.

"No. Honestly, he makes a good point."

"What did he say?"

"That you wouldn't have allowed me to rescue my mom. Or to be with Padme. I'm sorry master but I'm not going."

If they're so concerned about you or me falling to the darkside they can monitor us if they want.

"He also says if you're concerned about me or him falling to the dark side then you can monitor us."

"Ugh, Anakin." Obi Wan seemed to be whining. But there wasn't anything he could do. He couldn't really force him to do anything, it wasn't like he fell to the dark side.

Tell him I'm willing to cooperate with the Jedi in helping them hunt down the Sith Lord. Tell him I know his identity.

"He says that he knows the identify of the sith lord we've been hunting."

"Does he truly?"

Tell him I'll go into detail when I switch.

"He says he'll only tell you when I switch with him."

Tell him I don't want him pulling out his lightsaber on him, I'm on his side."

"He doesn't want you pulling out your lightsaber. He says he's on your side."

"Anakin, I really don't think you should trust him."

He doesn't have a family to save, you do which is why you did this. Now tell him to stop being skeptical and to trust me.

"He says to stop being skeptical and to trust him."

"Fine."

Anakin leaned back and willed himself to sleep with the force, a moment later I was back.

"Hello master Kenobi. Believe me when I say, I'm a big fan of your work."

"I'm not one for flattery, Mike." He sounded very skeptical when saying my name. "Now, this sith lord. Tell me."

"Technically, there are 2 sith lords. There's Darth Tyranus, you know him better as master Dooku. He's the new apprentice after you killed Maul. Well, technically Maul is alive but I'm not sure how."

"He's alive?! How? I killed him! I chopped him in half on Naboo."

I did not know about this either.

I didn't think it was relevant. Believe me as far as I can tell he doesn't play a role in your future.

"Believe me when I say it master Kenobi, I have no idea how he's alive. But I know he's alive, I've seen him, in a way. I believe in the future he'll lead a crime syndicate known as crimson dawn but I'm not sure about the details myself."

Obi Wan sat there and shook his head. "No....it's impossible I'd have felt it."

"I'm telling the truth Kenobi, believe me. Search my feelings, use the force."

Obi wan glanced at me and focused, a moment later I saw his worried expression once again. "This is probably the worst news I've gotten in my life."

"Believe me there's worse."

"Great, what now?" He rolled his eyes.

"Darth Sidious is a figure very high up in the republic. He has rallied hundreds of senators to his side and they all unwittingly follow him. He is the Senate so to speak. Once again master Kenobi, use your feelings, search the force and see if I'm lying."

I could feel him look within me and his worried expression got worse.

Are you going to tell him it's Palpatine?

Hell no, only if we catch Dooku.

"How? We'd have felt it, how could we let the republic fall so low?" He sat down next to me on the couch and shook his head while planting his face deep into the palms of his hands.

"I won't tell you his identity. Not yet, even if we catch and kill him Dooku still leads the separatists, and even then he has such control over the Senate and the courts the Jedi would be painted as villains and Dooku would take over without anyone batting an eye and wipe out the Jedi. We are so to speak in check. But I have a plan."

"A plan?" He looked up at me.

"Jango Fett, he works with Dooku. We catch him he'll lead us right to him. He awaits us on Coruscant. What do you say master Kenobi. Join us, together we'll destroy the Sith. You can even report this to the council, I'm more than willing to cooperate like I said."

"Let's go then." There was determination on his face. I could sense he was very skeptical but he was willing to work with us.

time to send of obi no kamino to remove the chips in the clone army
cause i dont think betting every thing on capture of dooku is a smart move

 

[Alenco98]

The Naboo starfighter he was piloting was escorting the royal Nubian starship Padme's body double was in. Escorting the starship were 5 Naboo Starfighter's, 2 pilots were escorting the starship along with Obi Wan, Padme and Anakin who were each flying their own starfighters.

They came to stop at the designated landing spot reserved for their ship. I immediately got off and looked around the area, I was locked in, the force surrounded me and I was ready for anything.

The other pilots and the body double emerged from the main ship. A moment later I felt it, I lit my lightsaber and jumped to where the body double was, deflecting a blaster bolt as she was emerging from the ship.

Obi Wan and Padme then ran to me.

"Looks like Fett is still after Padme." I glanced back at the body double who seemed very shook. "Relax, you're still alive, senator." I glanced back at Padme and winked at her then we made our way back to her senate quarters.

Once we were settled in I glanced at Obi Wan. "Stay with Padme, I need to talk to the chancellor."

Sidious.

Control your anger, I don't want him to find out.

Fine.

"Why the chancellor?"

"Confidential, it's regarding the separatists. If the Jedi come tell them I'll come back to the temple sometime in the next few days to collect my things."

"Anakin's things."

"We're one and the same Kenobi, remember that."

"As you say."

He really doesn't like you.

He'll come around.

-

I stood outside Darth Sidious' office. I didn't dare reach out with the force, no way was I going to attract his attention, not yet at least. I was rather awed at sensing his force signature. It was like staring at a black hole, there was nothing there, at least on the surface. The dude was like a ghost.

Control your emotions Anakin. Let me handle it.

A moment later I was let inside, Palpatine was working on some documents on his desk then he glanced up at me.

"Anakin, I've been expecting you." He seemed a bit surprised at my new haircut. "I thought Padawan's had that little braid at the back of their head. What happened? How can I help you my boy?"

"I have gone through a lot these past few days chancellor. Unfortunately, I am currently unemployed."

"Unemployed?" He seemed a bit confused.

"Circumstances have led me to leave the Jedi order."

Focus on his emotions, tell me how he feels. But at the same time relax. This is a lesson, watch how this fucker is going to manipulate us and turn us against the Jedi. See how dangerous he is.

Got it.

"What?" he asked in genuine surprise, looking at Anakin as if he misheard him. "Anakin, is this a joke?" he went on.

He's genuinely surprised.

I nodded. "It's not, Chancellor. I have come to realize the Jedi aren't good for me."

"What? Why?" Palpatine asked, he seemed genuinely interested.

"You probably have contacts on Naboo by now. For starters, my mother, she was abducted by sand people and tortured for days on end. I had visions of her. I went to my master to ask him what to do but he just told me to let go of my attachments. And well I couldn't abandon her. So I asked Padme to borrow her ship and I flew to rescue her. Then I asked her to help me resettle her and the family she married into on Naboo. And well, I've always had feelings for Padme. So I acted on them and now we're married."

He would have found out sooner or later, better to reveal it on our terms.

"Anakin this....this is a rather shocking tale I admit. Though I am happy for you." Palpatine smiled in approval, standing up from behind his desk and walking up to me while I just stood there in front of him. He walked over and placed a hand on my shoulder. "I imagine your former Master is displeased, Anakin. I do hope the Jedi don't try to interfere with your family. I assume someone as strong in the force as you would probably have kids strong in the force as well. If the Jedi want to take them away you only need to come to me and I can stop their attempts."

See. He's turning us against them, he's not wrong though.

That kriffing bastard.

While the Jedi order has real problems. Sidious is far far worse than them.

Damn right he is.

"They can talk to my lightsaber if they want to take my kids away." I meant it honestly, I was going to found my own Jedi order, with blackjack and hookers.

"I can only hope it doesn't come to that. Violence should only be used as a last resort." Palpatine replied. "Still, I am happy for you, to have made such a difficult decision and carried it out shows your strength of character."

Look at that subtle manipulation, the tasteful words he uses.

I said nothing, I was really tempted to force choke him and snap his neck. But the time would come later. Instead, another idea was popping into my head.

Me and Anakin both agreed the republic was corrupt. And the Jedi at best were enablers of that corruption, their influence would have to be expunged or minimized should we want to carry out the change we wanted.

But it didn't mean they deserved to be wiped out. Despite everything they were good people for the most part, good people serving a bad system, but good people.

"Chancellor," I turned to him. "Can I be honest with you?"

"What is it son? What do you want to say?"

"Frankly, I don't think there's a political solution to this current crisis. There's too much at stake for both sides. I'm not good at politics but I'm 100 percent certain It's going to lead to war."

Palpatine seemed concerned.

He's excited.

Of course he is.

"Why would you say that?"

"It's regarding my wife and her assassination attempts. I captured one of the bounty hunters and she gave me a name, Fett. And now I've been having these dreams, a bounty hunter named Fett, meeting a man calling himself Tyranus. He looks a lot like count Dooku, then it all evolves into a battlefield, thousands of clones fighting battle droids on some faraway planet. These dreams are getting more vivid chancellor. It's like the force is warning me war is coming."

Palpatine seemed to be taken aback and nodded for a moment.

He's surprised.

Makes sense.

"Anakin," Palpatine started. "If this is true, shouldn't you alert the council? Have they had these dreams?"

"Not as far as I can tell. Chancellor. I only ask that you let me help you. You're going to need all the help you can get on the battlefield. I only ask that you consider giving me a military commission so that I can serve alongside the Jedi. Preferably a higher ranking one than the Jedi, I'd rather not serve under them if possible."

Palpatine gave me an interested look and seemed to ponder it. "We can only hope it doesn't lead to it. But I would certainly be interested in that. In the meantime however, I am more than willing to give you a position within the Senate guard. Let me take care of the paperwork and application for you and I'll send a few senate guards to supplement senator Amidalas' security."

"I would greatly appreciate it."

"Of course." He took his hand off my shoulder and sat back on his desk with a smile on his face.

How is he?

Happy, almost ecstatic.

Typical.

"I'll be making my way back. Thank you chancellor."

"Please." He said. "Just call me Palpatine when we're alone Anakin."

"As you wish, Palpatine." I left the office, feeling quite good about myself. But not before asking to see the Senate security armory and borrowing a few weapons.

 

[Alenco98]

This text = the voice speaking and thinking
This text = Anakin speaking and thinking

I left the Senate building with some goodies from the Senate guard armory. I had a jetpack strapped to my back, along with a WESTAR-34 blaster pistol, the same one Jango Fett used and some blue senate commando armor. I wondered why the Senate guard didn't use weapons that extensively but it didn't matter, I had become the drip.

I got into a taxi, paying him to make my way to the Jedi temple to pick up my stuff from the room. I leaned back and enjoyed the journey as I always did. I got off at the temple district and made my way towards it. On the way, I noticed a bunch of people protesting.

Want to see what the fun's all about?

Sure I guess.

We went over to them and saw a woman holding a poster saying, "justice for baby Ludi." I walked up to her.

"Excuse me, what's this protest all about?"

She gave me a dirty look after spotting my lightsaber and armor."

"What? You here to disperse us Jedi? Do you even know what your order is doing?"

"I left the order a few days ago, I'm just here to pick up my things."

She seemed to soften up after mentioning my departure but she was still skeptical. "Well if you must know. The Jedi took a baby from a world in the outer rim after an earthquake."

"Ok? They always do that. What makes it so special?"

She seemed to get a little upset. "They abducted her without her parents permission."

"Ahh fair enough." I nodded. "And I'm guessing the order won't give her back?"

"Exactly! Now the Jedi are saying some Bantha shit about opening her up to the force and how they can't give her back. It's stupid."

"Fair enough I guess. I've never understood why they never let us contact our families. At least they could give her a job in the temple and let her see her kid daily. If they'd done that for me I'd have probably never left the order. Wouldn't that be fair?"

"Yeah that does sound reasonable. But it doesn't make up for the fact they took her baby."

"You're right it doesn't." I had a devilish idea pop up in my head as I noticed a lady with what looked like a Holo transmitter. I'd figure I'd do Sidious and myself a favor and turn this into a PR disaster for the Jedi. "A moment please I need to think."

Mind if I tell them about our story?

Sorry?

You know, being a slave, getting taken by the order while our mom got left. Having to rescue her and leaving the order.

How would that help us?

If we want to control the galaxy without killing Jedi we need to sideline them. Kill them in the area of public opinion. It'll of course also play to Sidious' side. We'll look like the victim here and once the war starts and we become generals we can start our rise to power. You want to change things right?

I mean I do. But making the Jedi look bad.

Either they'll be forced to change or we can found our new Jedi order and change it ourselves. Come on Ani, do it.

Fine, tell them everything I guess.

"Sorry about that." I continued as I spoke to the lady. "Say, I noticed a lady nearby with a Holo transmitter, mind if I speak to her? I have a few things to say about the Jedi." I of course used a mind trick to convince her and she led me to her.

"Olee, this is.." she turned to me. "Sorry I never got your name."

"Anakin Skywalker. Former Padawan of the Jedi, I have a few things to say about the jedi order and why I left them."

"Olee Lester, president of the Student news union of Coruscant university. A pleasure." She stretched out her hand and I shook it, then I began.

I told them everything, growing up as a slave on Tatooine; Getting found by Qui Gon, the chosen one prophecy and how I thought it was bullshit; winning a podrace; meeting queen Amidala then blowing up a Federation ship when I was nine; all the missions I underwent as a Padawan and killing my first man when I was 13; and I topped it off with being forced to rescue my mom and leaving the order after marrying the woman I loved. By the end of it I got a lot of looks of both pity and horror. Olee was basically speechless by the time I finished.

"Everyone." She said, addressing the student body from her Holo transmitter. "This, this poor young man here. Is why we're here, we cannot tolerate more baby Ludi's, these Jedi take poor children from their families and train them to be killing machines for the republic. Mr. Skywalker, anything else to say?"

"Well, for one if I have kids and they're force sensitive I'll be training them myself. And if the Jedi want to take them they can speak to my lightsaber." I lit it and swung it around. "I'm thinking about making my own Jedi order, one where Jedi can be with their families, can love and marry others, and who can actually show emotions and not be a bunch of soulless robots."

"You heard it here folks, this it Olee Lester from the Student news union. Mr. Skywalker, would you be interested in another interview later down the line?"

"Sure why not. Anyways I need to get my things, I'll be back."

With that I walked off as I heard her end her transmission. Sidious was going to owe me one for this.

-

Chancellor Palpatine sat in his office as the interview Anakin did with the Student news union played on his Holo computer. He had his agents keep an eye on him ever since he'd told him he left the order.

He couldn't contain his join and laughed as the interview played on his Holo-computer. Anakin had singlehandedly done more damage to the reputation of the Jedi order than any of his schemes had done in 10 years.

He turned off his Holo-computer and placed a call.

"Chancellor?" The man on the other end of the line answered. Kanan Styr, president of the galactic news service answered.

"I'm sending an interview to you. Have it spread on every relevant news channel across the galaxy. If I recall an appropriations bill if coming to my desk soon for your network. I think it might be time for extra funding."

"I see what you mean. Understood."

"And one more thing."

"Yes?"

"This call never happened."

"What call?"

"Good." He smiled and ended the call.

 

[stads]

welp thats going to gaslight some people ^^

 

[Lillie Jones]

thanks for the chapters

 

[Vhalidictes]

This is awesome, but it feels like Anakin and Mike are setting up too many things too fast.

On the bright side, Palpatine has their back, at least for now…

 

[freeraynman]

Justice for baby Ludi!
