	Ahhh...this is tense and scary. What will he do to her? Will he laugh or will he scream at her for....what? Threepio's crooked neck. I laughed so hard at that one cause I was trying to picture it. It was pretty hilarious! Great post! ~nabooqueen~

	Hmm, very original to say the least (in a good way) . I've read loads of A/P stories while in Lurkerdom and don’t think I’ve ever come across any that had Padme as a REAL slave. I really like Shmi in this story, she's very sad but very strong and refuses to give up on Anakin even though he's killed off all of her assistants, LOL. I especially LOVED the last chapter, from the mistake Anakin made about Padme, Shmi's smile, the crashes and 3po's crooked head. HILARIOUS. I wonder what he's going to show her that's in his sparring room? Please update soon & include me the PM list, cause I'm hooked!

	Author/Replies: Helen_Taft - LOL You had me laughing and snickering like crazy through this update. I loved how you had Vader being so wrong-footed about Padme. That was a great little touch, BUT my favourite was definately the collisions. I can't wait to see what it is that Anakin wants to show Padme, and for him to realise he could have more of Shmi's real smiles very, very easily. Great update, hun! YAY! Laughing and snickering? That was exactly my intent. He-he, the collisions were my favorite part too , and not to give too much away but more smiles are on the way … at least for Shmi they are. Thanks so much, your reviews give me the fuel to keep writing. HUGs KELIA - Hmmm...Vader is actually impressed with Padme! I like seeing him all flustered. I’m the same way, there’s just something so sweet and cute about a flustered, young, hot dark lord. Quigonjecca - Very nice. Though, I am worried about what Anakin will do to Padme. He seems like of bipolar-I guess that's what sith lords are like though. I agree completely, Bipolar = Sith Lord. VaderLVR64 Strong, broad shoulders, muscular arms, rippled abs and … sleep pants that hung a bit too low on his hips. I had to really study this section here. And make notes. With diagrams. You know, just to make sure there were no TOS violations. All part of the job! Then I realized that all of the TOS violations were in MY mind. OOPS. Great update! LOL, MY mind violated TOS big time when I was writing this and I loved every moment of it. nabooqueen2008 – Ahhh...this is tense and scary. What will he do to her? Will he laugh or will he scream at her for....what? Threepio's crooked neck. I laughed so hard at that one cause I was trying to picture it. It was pretty hilarious! Great post! Poor 3p0 as if having a stuffy personality wasn’t enough, I go and give him a crooked head. I’m glad you enjoyed ch7, thanks for such a nice review. VAPa – Hmm, very original to say the least (in a good way). I've read loads of A/P stories while in Lurkerdom and don’t think I’ve ever come across any that had Padme as a REAL slave.

HILARIOUS. wonder what he's going to show her that's in his sparring room?OM Gosh! I’m so thrilled about your review. Yeah, Padme a real slave was quite a stretch, but guess I love her character so much that I felt she was destined to be with Anakin and do great things no matter what her background was. Thanks for the awesome review. Sends you e-HUG. Darth_Drachonus – [i]Interesting. Add me to the list please Thanks for reading, hope you like the next post. SW terms: sleemo-slime ball, kriff–general derogatory term, frak-general derogatory term (courtesy of http://blogs.starwars.com/abelgpena/5) Ch 8 – Duty of a Dark Lord Padmé and Threepio were already seated at the work bench when Shmi entered the room. She watched in horror as Anakin dug through his tool chest as if he was looking for something specific. He’s going to torture her first?! He was even more cruel than she had originally thought. Sprinting over to where her son was standing, Shmi latched herself onto his arm, both her hands gripping as tight as she could manage. “Ani …” She pleaded, her voice sounding desperate from worry. “Mom, please …” Gently peeling his mother’s hands from his biceps, Anakin shrugged himself from her grip then walked over to the bench. “This is where your mistake was,” he took a seat next to Padmé after opening the latch on Threepio’s neck column. “See that lever and the green wire there? Move the wire up, push the lever to the right about fifteen degrees, then replace the wire.” Padmé did just as he instructed, “Alright Threepio, how do things look?” Threepio turned his head to the left then to the right. “Your face is no long tilted. My head is straight again. Yes, it is. Thank you Miss Padmé.” “I guess Threepio’s design was a lot more complex than I thought. Thank you for showing me that.” The young assistant beamed. “Uhh … ” Anakin found his composure slightly compromised at the sight of Padmé’s radiant smile. "Well … you did a good job considering …” He stood up from the bench after noticing his mother was approaching them. “We’re done, she’s all yours now.” Shmi tugged at her son’s arm again as he proceeded to leave. “Thank you, Ani.” She wrapped her arms around him, hugging him ever so tightly. “I love you,” she said, placing a soft kiss on her son’s cheek as she looked into his beautiful blue eyes. “I love you too, Mom. I have to go now.” Anakin returned to his bedchamber feeling quite bewildered by the strange antics of the two women residing in his personal quarters. First there was his mother, who had smiled from ear to ear the previous night for no apparent reason; and now she was hugging him like she had just been reunited with her long lost baby boy. Then there was Padmé. He chuckled at the thought of the funny girl. The image of her short little legs racing to the infirmary was hilarious; and her attempt at fixing Threepio was quite impressive. He meant it when he told her she had done a good job. Despite the complicated design, she managed to fix 95 percent of the problem. Anakin found himself smirking again as the image of Threepio’s lopsided head flickered in his mind. - After putting on his Imperial armor, the young lord made his way back to his mother’s bedchamber to tell her goodbye. As he approached the doorway, Anakin overheard the two women giggling about something. Fearful that he might be walking in on some female mushy moment, he slowly and quietly peered into the doorway. His eyes furrowed slightly in confusion at the sight before him. Padmé was brushing his mother’s hair? She had never allowed any of the other assistants to touch her hair before. She was particular about it and just preferred to tend to it herself. “I love your hair, it’s so shiny and silky,” Padmé commented as she ran her fingers through her mistress’ hair. “Thank you, dear. You don’t think it looks too boring?” “No, it’s beautiful. I’d give anything for my hair to be like this. Mine is way too curly and unruly, that’s why I have to wear it in a braid all the time,” Padmé said as she continued to work Shmi’s brown strands. “Ehmm … Mom, I’m going to the bridge now.” Anakin walked in, hugged his mother then kissed her cheek. “Bye darling, I hope you’ll … make it back for dinner.” Shmi smiled at her son adoringly as she recalled the non-incidents of the night before and this morning. “I’ll try. And oh, I almost forgot. We’ll be going to Alderaan next week. So you might want to get ready for that.” Anakin informed his mother before exiting. He was glad to see his mother felt comfortable enough with Padmé to let her help with her hair. - Gazing back into the mirror, Shmi watched intently as Padmé twisted her hair and worked to pin it into a tidy bun. She hadn’t allowed anyone to tend to her hair for nearly four years. It wasn’t just her hair, it was other things as well. In an attempt to preserve her own sanity, she had erected a wall around herself and refused to allow companionship to flourish. After the dismissal of her first few assistants, Shmi found that remaining distant was better. She would always feel great sadness when a person lost their life, but mourning the passing of a friend was excruciating. It wasn’t long before Shmi found that she had broken her own rule. It was simply too difficult to remain distant from Padmé. She was different from the others; the gentle and pure spirit she embodied reminded Shmi of when Anakin was a small boy. She missed it, she missed him … so much, but there was hope, she witnessed it just last night and this morning. Thank the Maker, Shmi smiled at Padmé through the mirror’s reflection. The girl was truly a gift from the heavens. - - - Command Bridge “Lord Vader, we’ve just been informed by the Imperial treasury that the Myrkr system has failed to submit their taxes for this month.” Vader was deep in thought for a few moments, “Tell them they need to comply within twenty-four hours or there will be consequences.” That’s it? Just consequences? But … I thought we usually raid the planet & kill everyone in our path. “Uhh … very good Milord. I’ll transmit your orders immediately.” Admiral Ozzel replied, remarking to himself that the young lord seemed quite out of sorts today. Vader remained expressionless despite sensing Ozzel’s confusion. Yes, Vader did realize that he was out of sorts for the moment. His mother was happy and therefore, the idiots of the galaxy would reap the benefits. - - - Twelve hours later ... Vader made his way back to his quarters wondering why a strange uneasiness was stirring in the pit of his stomach. Hope Mom is okay, he thought as he willed his lengthy legs to take on a quicker stride. Like steam escaping at the opening of a shower door, the sound of laughter immediately gushed out the moment the door to his private quarters slid open. Other than his mother and Padmé, Vader sensed the presence of a third person, someone annoyingly familiar as a matter of fact. Stepping into the common room, the young lord clenched his right hand into a tight fist as he fought the urge to Force choke the man sitting at the couch across from his mother and Padmé. Immediately getting up from the sofa, the officer stood to attention and bowed respectfully to the approaching commander. “What brings you here, Admiral Ozzel? Your shift ended half an hour ago.” “Well, I was uhh … paying these two lovely ladies a visit.” Ozzel glanced at Padmé as he responded to the commander's inquiry. “Cut it with the pleasantries, Admiral. It’s been a long day.” The young lord stated bluntly. Shifting awkwardly, the officer hesitated for a second before voicing his true intentions for the impromptu visit. “The computer report indicates that we will be passing by a galaxy system called the Milky Way at 2200 hours. I … uhh … thought Miss Padmé might be interested in seeing this most magnificent sight.” “The Milky Way, really?” Padmé asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “My dad said that’s one of the most beautiful galaxy systems he’s ever seen.” The young assistant silently looked to her mistress for her approval. Shmi knew it was safer to say no, but her resolve melted at the sight of Padmé’s pleading eyes. “I suppose that would be alright.” She paused for a brief moment before giving her assistant a very firm look, “Just be sure to return by midnight.” Padmé hugged Shmi excitedly, “Thank you, I promise to come right back.” Shmi smiled, feeling confident that Padmé would keep her word, and therefore the night should pass without incident. - - - Having finished the first part of his training regimen, Vader used the Force to float a small hand towel to wipe off the sweat from his face and neck. What’s taking them so long?! Glancing up at the wall chrono for the umpteenth time, the lord began to recalculate. They left at 2145, it should have taken them fifteen minutes to arrive at the view-port, five minutes to view the system, and fifteen minutes to return. They should have been back by now, it’s been 40 minutes. What was Mom thinking? It's just a few clustered dots, they don't need two whole hours for that. He let out a frustrated grunt. After wiping off the sweat, Vader turned on the training module and started the second phase of his exercises. The flurry of laser darts kept dissipating into thin air as he effortlessly deflected each and every one of them with his practice sabre. Unfortunately for Vader though, the distraction was short lived and before he even realized it, his mind had drifted again. Frak it! Giving into the uncontainable urge, the lord cursed once again before looking up at the chronometer. What in the blazes!! It’s 2245!! It had been a standard hour since they had been gone! The scum was using this Milky Way incident thing to woo Padmé; and given the time, she had undoubtedly given into his grimy ways. Vader wondered for a brief second why the admiral was being so unusually bold. This was the first time Ozzel dared to associate with one of his mother’s assistants. Who cares why! This is just unacceptable! The dark lord decided right then and there that this would also be the sleemo’s very last time as well. After deactivating the lightsabre, the young commander clipped the cylinder to his belt as if he was going into battle. Not caring one kriffing bit that he was still drenched with sweat as well as inappropriately dressed in a casual tunic and crinkled workout pants, Vader hastily left his quarters. They were going to regret this with their lives! It had taken him over four years to find a decent assistant for his mother and now Ozzel had managed to completely ruin it. His mother was going to be heartbroken, but what choice did he have? Approximately ten minutes later … “Where are Ozzel and Padmé?” Vader quickly scanned the bridge only to find that they weren’t there. Piett swallowed down the lump in his throat, “Uhh … she and the Admiral went back to his quarters. He wanted to show her some astrology book titled ‘The Anatomy of a Galaxy’.” “Figures!” The dark lord bellowed as he turned on his heel. Hoping to save the poor girl from Vader’s wrath, the captain quickly explained, “She actually told him that she wanted to just go back since Lady Skywalker was probably waiting up for her, but he promised it would only take a second for him to locate the book.” The commander’s form had disappeared through the corridor by the time Piett finished explaining. - SLEEMO! Vader cursed again, knowing the galaxy’s anatomy was not the anatomy Ozzel was referring to. Marching toward the admiral’s quarters, he reiterated to himself that it was of utmost importance that the situation be remedied as quickly as possible. The Empire did not need sleemos like Ozzel in its employ; and he was not going to subject his mother to filth such as this girl who was hiding her real self behind the façade of an angelic face. Finally arriving at Ozzel’s quarters ten minutes later, Vader punched in the override security code with unnecessary force. “Unnhh … oohh …” Erotic sounds immediately assaulted his ears the second the door slid open. Stepping into Ozzel’s common room, Vader’s eyes scanned the dimly lit room with cunning prowess. They weren’t in the room, but he did spot an open bottle of wine and two goblets on the coffee table; one goblet was empty while the other looked half full. There was something else on the table … it was Padmé’s pullover! They must be in his bedroom, Vader concluded in disgust as he walked across the common room and towards the inner compartment of the admiral’s quarters. “Unnhh … yeah baby … that’s it … unnhh …” The noises were much louder now that he was standing right outside the bedchamber. This is the end for you! SCUM of the Empire and FILTH of the galaxy! Clenching both his hands into tight fists, the dark lord rotated both his wrists as he readied himself to kick down the door. An evil smirk emerged unbidden onto his face as he envisioned Force choking the life out of these kriffing worthless excuses for human beings. As Darth Vader, it was his duty to rid the galaxy of the foul stench of such womp rats who leeched off his master’s grand Empire. -TBC- Thanks for reading PM list KELIA VaderLVR64 Quigonjecca nabooqueen2008 JediMasterJessica Darth_Drachonus Please let me know if you would like to be removed or added to the PM list.

	OMG what a cliffhanger! And, oh, no, Padme is about to face a wrathful Vader. Ack! I have all of my fingers and toes crossed that when he goes in there it's really innocent, or not Padme at all---arggh just when things were looking up for Shmi, Ani and Padme. A wonderful update, Lisi. I loved the interactions between the main three, but I'm hoping you have the next one ready for us very soon. -----signature----- Purgatory (A/P AU) - http://boards.theforce.net/the_saga/b10476/28225076/ I Asked An Angel If I Could Fly (SPN) - http://boards.theforce.net/non_star_wars_fan_fiction/b10808/28873939/p1/?0

	AWESOME post, THANKS for the PM. I bet Vaderkin really enjoyed showing Padme how to fix 3PO’s neck but he’s too stubborn to realize it. Anakin returned to his bedchamber feeling quite bewildered by the strange antics of the two women residing in his personal quarters. First there was his mother, who had smiled from ear to ear the previous night for no apparent reason; and now she was hugging him like she had just been reunited with her long lost baby boy. AWW, I'm so happy for Shmi, that’s so sweet, but gosh is he clueless or what? This situation with Ozzel has me really nervous. I don’t know what’s going on with Ozzel but I want Vaderkin to kick his butt!
