(Anakin Skywalker X Reader) I Hate Sand

"HELP!" the cry of the distressed mother echoed throughout the canyon.

(Y/N) (L/N) just so happened to walking along the top of the canyon as the panicked woman continued her frantic search.

She leapt down and onto a close-by ledge before proceeding to quickly scale down the remainder of the way.

"Ma'am, is something wrong?" (Y/N) asked, a worried and sympathetic look on her face as she placed her hands on the woman's shoulders in comfort.

"MY SON!" the woman sobbed. "THEY'VE TAKEN MY SON!"

"Who took your son?" (Y/N) inquired confusedly.

"THOSE BLASTED SAND-PEOPLE!" the woman howled. Her deep blue eyes were filled with tears, and her entire body shook with every sob. It broke (Y/N)'s heart to have to watch her lament over her lost child.

(Y/N) thought for a moment. She had a blaster, a small blade, and a hand grenade (A/N: Not the holy one, just the regular kind :) ...perhaps she could attempt to get the boy back? 

"Ma'am, because I don't think that ANY parent should have to EVER lose a child, I'm going after him," (Y/N) said bravely.

The woman looked up and smiled weakly.

"I wouldn't want to put you in danger. After all, you're quite young yourself," she said, her voice hoarse.

"Please. I couldn't live with myself knowing that I could've prevented...something from happening."

Finally the woman agreed, and (Y/N) raced to the nearest Raider Settlement that she knew of.

Sure enough, a blue-eyed, dark-haired boy of about six was being held captive by the Sand-People. He looked very afraid, and (Y/N) didn't blame him.

She slowly advanced on his position, being mindful that she didn't give away her own.

Eventually she got to him. She hurriedly untied the now very confused child.

"Who are you?" he asked. (Y/N) shushed him and finished breaking the bonds.

"I'm (Y/N). I'm here to save you."

The boy's eyes widened and he beamed. Afraid that he would cry out with joy, (Y/N) quickly explained to him the importance of being quiet. He nodded in understanding.

They both silently crept away, however (Y/N) eventually made the mistake of tripping over the most dangerous...the most vile...the most irritating, rough, and coarse thing known to man...

...sand.

"...I hate sand," (Y/N) mused under her breath as several Sand-People turned to look at her.

One of them made a very peculiar sound and ran towards her.

(Y/N) leapt to her feet, pulled out her blaster, and stood in front of the boy. She shot the incoming Sand-Person in the leg- her objective was to injure him enough that he couldn't continue chasing her. Killing would always be a last-resort.

The Sand-Person cried out in pain and fell to the ground. Another took his place, but (Y/N) quickly shot that one in the leg as well.

As the others realized what was going on, they stepped back. However, more suddenly emerged from everywhere and began to chase (Y/N) and the boy off of their land.

Both ran at full-speed. The Sand-People eventually ceased chasing them, and they soon after reached a human settlement.

"MOTHER!" the boy screamed upon seeing her in the crowd of people.
