	Gah, okay..this 'will' be updated on Monday, Force willing. I know how the next chapter is going to go, have it mapped out in my head. It's just a matter of finding the words and getting them down ..if that makes any sense whatsoever haha. But hopefully everyone hasn't completely lost interest in this because this one is more important to me to get done than any of my current fics running. I will leave one small tidbit just in case anyones still interested. If you hate Palpy in this story so far, be prepared to hate hom even more. -----signature----- See user profile for my fics.

	Okay so this chapter didn't go quite as planned, I wasn't able to deal so much with what I have planned for Palps, but I promise that'll show up in the next one, which I'll post probably next week. Also, apologies on the tardiness of this chapter and the shortness, drl has really been taking hold. And now..on with the show..err, fic. :P ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Deciding to head straight for my own quarters first, I was sure I'd receive a strict reprimand for my disobedience, but somehow I didn't care quite so much as I would normally. My children first and foremost in my mind, I entered to find my quarters empty. My heart skipped a beat when I entered expecting to find the children peacefully playing with their caretaker, but I was greeted by nothing but vast silence. Calling out to them, I received no reply, even further intensifying the alarm bells ringing in my head. The Force pulled at me, telling me something was indeed wrong, but I couldn't decipher if it had to do with them, just a vague tingling sensation deep in my heart. And whatever it was, Master Sidious was involved, I felt it to my core. It was enough. Enough to send me right around, storming off in the direction of his chambers. As I expected, as soon as my presence was announced, Luke and Leias angelic faces appeared before me, followed quickly by the shrouded figure I now referred to as Master. He looked me over as I stooped to pick up both of them. What furthered my panic was how quiet Leia was, usually talkative, regailing me with stories of her time with the nanny and all they'd gotten up to. Today she can barely look at me, instead her gaze is intently focused on the pendant I wear, tiny fingers plucking at it. The jappor smippet had dangled from my neck since the last day I had seen Padme. Her eyes softened their scrutinizing of it, and her face now buried itself in my neck as Luke looked over at her. "You were gone so long, daddy. I missed you! Are you staying home now?" I cuddled him closely to me. My heart cracking a fraction at having to tell him I'd be leaving so soon. "I missed you, too, son. I'm afraid I'm not home for very long but I promise while I am I intend to spend as much time as I can with both of you." Lukes face fell instantly, and I promised to take him out on my next mission. Shooting a glance at the withered old man, practically daring him to contradict me. He said nothing, simply meeting my gaze with one of his own. His was laced with hidden mirth, as though he found my demands childish, but if he thought it I couldn't tell. At last, Leia piped up, lifting her head and scowling in a way that reminded me so much of Padme. The look brought with it a feeling much the same I'd felt whenever Padme was displeased with me. Shame, instant remorse for whatever I'd done to bring it. But as I was to find out, this time it wasn't as much my doing. "While you were gone Master wouldn't let us see mom!" She looked at him with that disdain still plain in her eyes, and I quickly shushed her. Making my tone stern but gentle. "Show some respect for your elders, young one." Instantly her big brown eyes lowered away from mine, looking wounded. I knew she loathed the old man, probably as much as I did, though she couldn't really understand why. Just a 'feeling', is all she'd tell me whenever I pushed her for a reason. Luke, on the other hand, found him a bit intriguing, though scary. As though sensing his cue, he slithered closer, smiling that saccerin sweet smile I knew was always tinged with loathing. He could never grasp the importance of family. Nor why I held my childrens wants even above my own. I placed them down on the floor, gently, handing Luke my cloak as I always did to run and put away for me. Our quarters were only three doors down so I beeped the caretaker, who was down in the kitchen, informing her that the children needed her. She appeared in a matter of moments, taking each of them by the hand and leading them away. At the entrence, Leia turned, casting one last glance at me, pleading. "Go on, Princess, this won't take long." Seemingly placated, she turned and followed. Once they were gone, I cleared my throat. Turning to him and he let out the most mysterious chuckle. Before I could inquire what was so humorous though, he returned to his large throne-like chair in the center of the room, beckoning me over. "I did not realize, Lord Vader, that your childrens petulance could make you forget your proprieties so quickly." I looked at him questioningly. "Master?.." It was then that it struck me. I had never once acknowledged him, even with a slight bow since entering the room. I tried my best to look humbled, quickly rising from my place and bowing before him. "Forgive me, my lord. I shall try not to lose sight of my place in the future." Another of those amused chuckles, and he waved his gnarled hand, directing me to sit beside him. "Rise, my friend. I understand you were otherwise... distracted." Waving a dissmissive hand in the direction Luke and Leia had gone in. Which said much. He didn't care for them, not an the slightest. So what then, were they doing here? I could not help myself, my curiousity and concern getting the better of my judgement even knowing that I'd already displeased him. "I am sorry, Master. Have the children..done something..?" He must sense my discomfort, I thought. But he chose to ignore the question. "I trust the mission I sent you on is going well." "Yes, I have a lead on the last known whereabouts of Master Yoda. If he's still alive anywhere out there, I'll find him." I have to, I thought. My very soul depends upon it. He looked at me, his deeply sunken eyes resembling watery pools of filth, scrutinizing my every movement. I felt that familiar tugging, and let my shields down just enough to be passable. Keeping my feelings about Padmes death and all my inner turmoil over his actions deeply buried, far from his reach. I'd deal with them later. He stiffly nodded, when he found what he was looking for, finding the truth in my words concerning Master Yoda. I was intent on finding him, that much I made perfectly clear. Just what I'd do once I found him, I wasn't certain yet. "Excellant. When you do I want him brought directly here. You may feel free to conduct your own interrogation, see what you can get out of him, but I want him returned to me alive." I inwardly wondered just what information he wanted from the diminutive Jedi, though I did have my own set of questions, so I merely nodded my head. "It will be done." One last, long lingering gaze, and he nods, satisfied. "You may go. I expect once you've finished playing the doting father for you to return here in the morning ready to leave. You will be informing the children of their mothers death tonight, I assume." I cringed slightly, informing my children that their mother has left this life is a task I dreaded, and especially the questions that were sure to follow. I'd protect them from the truth for as long as I could, I decided. Until I was sure how to deal with it myself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TBC once I get a few replies -----signature----- See user profile for my fics.

	Aww! I adored the scene with Anakin and the twins, and how he was so intent on his children he didn't even acknowledge Palpatine! I'm really anxious for the part where Anakin begins to suspect that Padme isn't dead, but I promise to be patient and let you draw this out as you will. Great update, Vaders_Angel.

	Did I get this right?? Padmé stayed with Anakin after Mustafar, gets pregnant again, has the twins then Palpy stages her death after a few years? How old are the twins? Very intriguing. May I be on the PM list for all your stuff, please? -----signature----- Dutiful Padawan of Darth_Leia_6669 Forever - A/P Fluffy Vig - http://boards.theforce.net/the_saga/b10476/28887666/p1 OS - V/P AU - http://boards.theforce.net/a/b10476/28479731 SB - Aotc/Rots AU - http://boards.theforce.net/the_saga/b10476/28579788

Aww, thank you so much! Yes, Ani is beginning to see that Palpy doesn't exactly have his best interests at heart, which really should've been quite obvious in the first place, but..that's our Ani, he can be a bit thick sometimes. He is beginning to suspect that something isn't quite right but I'm afraid it'll not be immediate that he begins to suspect Padme is indeed alive. I have to torment him a little more first, and of course, Padme as well. Thanks for reading and replying, it's very much appreciated! Lisbev posted: Did I get this right??

May I be on the PM list for all your stuff, please? Almost,..Padme did stay with Ani after Mustafar, thinking she could help him redeem himself but it wound up being Padme who paid for her decision, which annoyed Palps and he's staged her death, putting her in a sort of Force induced 'trance' if you will.. She and Ani never had the altercation on Mustafar, they only talked, so she never lost the 'first' set of twins in this. That is the original L&L, they are six in this fic. I need to fix that in the summary this is six years post ROTS, not three. I'd originally intended it to be three, but in order for the twins to take on the role that I have planned in future, they need to be a little older than that. Hope this clears things up for you, and I will most certainly put you on my pm list for both this and Inner Turmoil, which is my only other ongoing fic at the moment. There should be an update in that one sometime in the coming week, Force willing and DRL permitting. Once again, thank you for reading and replying, it means alot. -----signature----- See user profile for my fics.
