Saga Another Vader Redemption Fic - Complete

Finally!! that talk was long due!! now I wonder how will Padme react?? ok hopefully, Anakin has enough people gunning for him as it is....

 

"Would you like some tea?" The question was out before he realized how utterly ridiculous it sounded, given the circumstances. This is not one of my silly dreams; there is a Sith lord standing on my doorstep.

Oh his dreams! His dreams! This was like his dreams! So touching.

Anakin shrugged. "I blew up the Death Star," he sighed unhappily, staring at the table.

I found something really funny in that! It just came out of nowhere!

Oh man...this was incredibly sweet, I am SO happy that they have finally made up...oh man...so happy.

2 more chapters? THAT'S IT? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

Awwww... Obi-wan and Anakin finally made up... that's wonderful, wawoot! Anakin keeps blaming himself for everything... he's got to come to his senses about it... he wasn't all his fault... please let Obi-wan tell Anakin soon about Padme... he still thinks he killed her... that's not good... I love Kenobi/Skywalker!

Great update!

Awwww...that was so sweet!



But I think Obi-Wan should have at least told Anakin Pamde is still alive...

I hope she takes the news as well as he did

Great update

 

His mind was racing; this was the closest thing to a conversation they'd had in over a year. "Is everything all right?" he asked, realizing once again how very odd it was to be asking that question of a Sith lord... While making tea for him, in his own apartment, in the middle of the night.

Ah, the absurdity of it! I love it.

I am going to refrain from quoting more, as I'd just end up quoting it all.

Loved Anakin and Obi-Wan's talk. Looking forward to seeing how Padme takes it all.

 

Yeah!!! Anakin's finally come clean to Obi Wan!!!

He needed that. Now Obi Wan has to talk to Padme and then break the news to Anakin in a way that doesn't send him spiraling back to the place whence he came. Anakin's still in a delicate mental state, so any wrong move could make him crazier than he already is.

I love clueless Obi Wan in this story, he's so funny--almost as funny as his dreams.

"Anakin, that was your plan all along, wasn't it?" he asked quietly, sitting down again. "To destroy the Sith Order."

Now he sees it.

Ah yes...clueless Obi Wan... Now let's have a Skywalker family reunion!


Great post as usual

 

This is what I was waiting for!!! And you didn't disappoint!

Anakin was so sweet- I just wish Obi-Wan had been able to tell him about Padme! I can't wait to see her reaction!

 

I have to repeat the others and say awwwww...that was so sweet...funny and sad, but sweet. lol...you write so well - I can picture Obi and Ani sitting chatting over tea perfectly...lol...

Well done

 

What a journey to come back to the light. I do hope there is a good reunion between Anakin and Padme.

 

I had these overwhelming feelings to do this and this at the same time: <- *sniff* those are happy tears.

Great writing!!!!!!!!!

 

Chapter 15

It was a beautiful summer day on Alderaan, and Padme was working in the garden. Luke and Leia were with their adoptive parents at the moment; Padme had come to accept her role as a servant in their household, and had found that gardening brought her a sense of peace and tranquility that helped to push aside her homesickness and other memories that were still too painful.

Hearing soft footsteps approaching, she looked up to see a familiar brown-robed figure. "Obi-Wan," she exclaimed, surprised and delighted to see him. "What are you doing here? It's good to see you," she added, smiling warmly as she greeted him.

"It's good to see you as well," Obi-Wan said, his blue eyes twinkling. "I was hoping I might have a word with you," he said politely.

"Of course," Padme said. "Is everything all right?" she asked, suddenly concerned.

"Yes," Obi-Wan assured her, admiring the flowers as they walked along the flagstone pathway through the garden. "Actually, I have some very good news, Padme: it's safe for you to come out of hiding now," he said gently. "You can go home to your family on Naboo, along with the children; I've already spoken to the Organas about it."

Home? Padme stared at him in disbelief, tears of joy filling her eyes. "Obi-Wan, are you sure?" she asked, not daring to believe him. "What about - What about Darth Putin?"

"He is no longer a danger," Obi-Wan confirmed. "He has left the Sith Order, and Giganticus never had any interest in your children to begin with," he reassured her.

"He left?" Padme asked, puzzled. She had never heard of a Sith lord simply retiring; then again, this Darth Putin had always seemed a bit eccentric... "Where did he go?" she asked Obi-Wan nervously. She'd heard rumors that Putin was an escaped mental patient; in a way she almost felt safer knowing he was on Tatooine, than wondering where else in the galaxy he might be.

"Well that's what I came here to talk to you about," Obi-Wan admitted reluctantly. "Padme, I haven't been entirely honest with you, about a number of things; I hope that you can forgive me," he began apologetically. "In retrospect I realize I should have told you the truth from the start, but you've been through so much this past year; I didn't want to worry you," he explained gently.

Padme nodded. It was true; dealing with her grief over Anakin's betrayal and ultimate death had been incredibly painful, and if Obi-Wan was protecting her from something, he must have had his reasons. "What is it?" she asked softly, fearing his answer.

"It's about Anakin," Obi-Wan admitted gently, and Padme felt her eyes well over with tears. She nodded, indicating for him to go on. "Padme," he continued uncertainly. "The TIE fighter accident..."

"I know," Padme blurted out tearfully, biting her lip. I've always known.

"You do?" Obi-Wan asked, startled.

Padme nodded. "I guessed," she admitted reluctantly. "Ani would never - " she broke off, squeezing her eyes shut. He would never have crashed like that. He was murdered. Palpatine used him to get what he wanted and then threw him away like he was nothing.

Obi-Wan nodded. "I should have known," he said quietly. Then he managed a rueful grin. "They say great minds think alike; you weren't the only one to fake your death for the Emperor's benefit," he laughed softly, shaking his head.

What? Padme looked up at him, suddenly confused. "What are you talking about?"

"Anakin," Obi-Wan explained. "The TIE fighter crash was a diversion; he got away... Padme! Padme, are you all right?"

Padme nodded; but the world was spinning too fast, and she was trembling with shock. Then Obi-Wan's arms were around her, helping her to a nearby bench. "You didn't know," Obi-Wan said gently, sitting down beside her.

"No," Padme whispered weakly, still shaking. "What happened?"

"It's a very long story, and I will tell you everything," Obi-Wan promised, "But Anakin's alive, Padme," he said gently, tears of happiness glistening in his eyes

 

But they were not Obi-Wan's soft, graceful padding footsteps that she heard; these were far more familiar

Oh my goodness! This is so sweet, it's breaking my heart every second!

I'M SO HAPPY THEY ARE GOING TO TALK!!!!!!

I ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT UPDATE!!!!!

 

Great post. Padme is so understanding with Obi Wan, she took everything so well. I wonder what went on between Anakin and Obi Wan that only took five minutes, I hope Obi's still in one piece/conscious. Now for the family reunion and A/P mush!

 

Aww. That was all so touching. Looking forward to Anakin and Padme's talk.

 

Awww absolute happiness all around.. I can't wait for the mushy reunion. Great update wawoot!

 

awwww... mush all around... I loved it... this was the best chapter yet... Anakin and Padme are finally reunited!!! YAY!!! *happy dance* lol...

I'm glad Padme was ready to face what Anakin looked like, but I'm happy she won't have to face those scars...

I know I couldn't even comprehend what Anakin would've said to Obi-wan when he told him about Padme... I'm guessing Ani ran from the ship at top speed?! lol...

I was actually crying tears of love and joy...

*sigh*

Rachel Rose

A/P forever!!

 

hey wawoot i gotta stop reading your stuff.... its just too good. jeez man every time i turn around i read another good story from you. Could you add me to the pm list for thisone as well?

 

Oh my gosh. Such gushy mush. I love it.
I love how Anakin changed the Jedi ways.
And how by getting rid of the Sith that meant killing Palpatine and having Jabba and his son be the Sith successors.

Next: the final chapter of happy mush!

Does that mean it's almost over? That sucks. This story is wonderful!

 

Awesome update! I'm so glad that Padme wasn't mad at Obi-Wan for withholding the truth.

Looking forward to the mush!!

 

God, I have missed everything and I?m sorry about that.

Oh, wow, these have been so wonderful and I have to say that I?ve laughed so hard and now I can?t wait to see the ending even if I?m so sad that it?s over.

Hurray for everyone.

Please send me a pm when you post again.

 

"And if I'm not back within half an hour, that means he's probably killed me for lying to him,"

well, I would wear some protection, just in case you know?

Yes!! nwo come back and tell us that Anakin is not going to trow a tantrum like the 10 year old bulkhead that we all now he is inside, and get bacxk together with his wife!

 

Oh how wonderful!!! I can just picture it. Anakin was right not to wait more than 5 minutes, I'm sure he ran right out of the ship.

I look forward to the last chapter of mushiness.

 

Aw, lovely wawoot. Great scene between Padme and Obi...I do like those two together.

I look forward to reading the last chapter!

 

one thing we have learned from this situation is that humans - even Jedi humans - are simply incapable of relinquishing attachments

thank the Force they?ve come to their senses!



I?m glad to see Anakin insisted on going along with Obi-Wan to tell Padme.

I just can?t wait for their reunion

Great update

 

Chapter 16

Padme wept bitterly, her throat searing with pain as she hung her head and stared down at the flagstones through tear-blinded eyes. She had meant to be strong for Anakin. She had meant to smile, to embrace him, to tell him she loved him and that everything would be all right; but she had failed. Instead, she had turned into a trembling, sobbing mess, unable to even look at him.

But then his arms were around her, and he was holding her close, stroking her hair and kissing her on the forehead. "Padme," he said again, his voice so soft and loving. "Padme, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry," he cried. "Are you all right?" he asked, concerned.

Padme nodded, but she was still trembling in shock, unable to speak. I'm all right, Ani, she wanted to say. But all she could make was this pathetic, choking, hiccupping sound. She was vaguely aware of him leading her toward the bench, and then she was sitting beside him with his arms around her, resting her head against his chest as she sobbed uncontrollably.

"Shhh," Ani whispered softly, stroking her back gently as he held her. "I'm sorry, Padme," he said again. "I'm sorry. Please forgive me," he cried desperately. Padme nodded, hugging him tight; there was nothing to forgive. For the first time in more than a year she felt safe and warm in his arms, and as she lay her head against his chest she cried all over again, just to feel the natural rise and fall of his breathing, and listen to the soft thump of his heartbeat. Obi-Wan was right, she smiled, her eyes welling over with tears of relief. He is well again. Closing her eyes, she rested peacefully in his arms as he gently stroked her shoulder and kissed her tenderly on the top of her head.

Finally her tears were spent, and she worked up the courage to look at him. She knew the scars would be terrible, and that he probably didn't have any hair; but she would not flinch. She would not hurt Ani by looking frightened or shocked by his appearance. Opening her eyes, she summoned her courage... And stared in horror.

His black tunic was soaked with her tears, but there was something else there, slimy and viscous... "Oh no," she choked sadly, trying to wipe it off with her sleeve. "I snotted on you."

And thus Padme Amidala, former Queen of Naboo and Senator of the Galactic Republic, upon seeing her beloved husband for the first time in more than a year, chose I snotted on you as her first words to him.

"Oh, great," Anakin said, disgusted. "You're worse than Jabba. That's it, I'm getting a divorce." He shoved her away playfully, and she giggled; then she looked down shyly, still not daring to look at him.

"I'm sorry," she apologized, but then the giggles came back; she couldn't stop them.

"Yeah, you look sorry," Anakin laughed gently, pushing a loose tendril of hair out of her face. "Seriously, Padme, if I wanted this type of thing I could have stayed on Tatooine." But he kissed her tenderly on the temple, running his fingers through her silky hair.

Padme smiled blissfully, laying her head against his shoulder as he stroked her hair; then she became aware of an odd tugging sensation and realized what he was doing. "Anakin Skywalker, cut that out!" she demanded crossly, smacking him.

"Hahaha, I can't help it," he laughed, letting go of the crazy twisted bun he had made. Anakin always loved trying to invent new styles for her hair, but he was terrible at it; he had no appreciation whatsoever for the fine art of Naboo hair design, and came up with the most ridiculous fashions imaginable. "There," he said gently, combing it out again with his fingers, "all back to normal." Padme felt it to make sure he wasn't lying; then she hugged him happily.

"I've missed you, Ani," she said softly, snuggling up against him.

"I've missed you too, Padme," he said lovingly, holding her in his arms. "Padme, I'm so sorry," he apologized again. "I'm sorry for - for everything," he said miserably.

"No," Padme said gently, stopping him. "Shhh." She closed her ey
