Padmé woke up with a startle. She was in the storage room... on the star destroyer? No... that couldn't be right. She was headed to Alderaan... with Luke and Anakin...

NO, no, no, no, no, no...

She was starving, and her body was void of water. She was dizzy and felt weak and cold. It was hard to fully focus on her bleak, organized yet cluttered surroundings. Her heart rate had begun to pick up. The hysteria at her situation had begun to pick up. None of the events that had previously occurred were real. No wonder why everything appeared to be impossibly perfect. It was just a dream the whole time, a theoretical situation she had made up in her head while unconscious

"Yes lord Vader. We will do another sweep of the ship. " came a stormtrooper's voice as he set foot in the storage room examining it. His boots clanking on the clean floor with every step.

Padmé took this moment and stood up. That was her mistake. The blood rushed to her head and her knees began to buckle

"Vader, we have a rogue woman here. She seems ill. Should I bring her in?" He said over his comm and lifted the girl over his shoulder while awaiting Vader's reply

"Yes, officer. Bring her to me, and we will see why there is a woman on board " Vader replied in his heavy mechanical voice. 

The trooper carried Padmé, who was looking more ill by the second, into the room where Vader was waiting for her, "This is the woman."

Anakin's eyes got wide underneath the mask, before he shook his head. "Secure her to the chair. Ensure she cannot escape. "

The cuffs dug into her wrists on the armrest of the chair, "You won't get away with this. The rebellion-" Padmé started breathlessly.

"- the rebellion is weak compared to my empire. You are a bold one for speaking up, but I find your lack of mannerism disturbing. " Vader interrupted.

She scowled before looking away, "I find your lack of hospitality disturbing. And you’re... shorter than I expected."

"Keep her here and don't let her escape. I will return later. " He glared under the mask and walked out, slamming the door.

There were guards everywhere, and Padmé dozed off, waiting for the man of terror.
