The two were free.

They were finally free.

It's only about a week since they escaped, and sure, they're wanted now. That wasn't a problem to them.

Until Padmé realized something.

"Anakin... why'd you turn to the dark Side?" She asks, looking at him.

"I had a vision. That you'd die in childbirth. I couldn't lose you. "

"Wait...Obi-Wan said you killed all the Jedi... did you?"

"Uh... no. Palpatine gave the clones an order to kill all the Jedi."

"Then why were some Jedi killed by a lightsaber?"

"Padmé..."

"Answer me." She glares.

He whimpers, scared by his wife. "No, Padmé listen to me..."

"Did you!?"

"Yes. Yes I did. But it was so I could have the power for me to save you!"

Padmé walks down the hall of the ship, slamming the door shut of her room. How was I so naive? She thought.

Anakin frowned, sitting back down in the pilot seat as they headed for Tatooine. There, they would get one of their twins, and start rebuilding the family.

But both of them questioned of that'd work, due to the fight they just had.

They are the Slave and The Angel. Two who loved each other, swore to find each other, and searched Across the Stars.
