Father sheev- oh no the fated day it’s coming. dear author if it’s anakin fate to turn dark I’m at peace with that but please don’t let him murder those youngling’s! That all I ask please don’t make him a child murder make him fall some other way.
He’s
not sure what makes him turn away from Dex diner.
Something
is itching and burning in the pit of his stomach and Anakin can’t
help but figure its connected to his husband because of his worry for
the other man. And for the unborn baby inside of him that makes
Anakin push the skycar even faster through the sky.
And
he’s right.
Yanda
and human he thinks is named Ceena is laying dead on the floor, saber
marks on their body.
But
its the next thing that will forever be seared in Anakin’s mind as
he races into the apartment he has shared with his beloved, finding
Windu standing over Obi-Wan whose
collapsed to the floor with a wet puddle spreading around him,
his oh so pregnant husband’s arm wrapped around his swollen stomach
as Palpatine crashes into the room with a saber in hand and guards
behind him.
The
next few moments are… blurry.
But
Anakin knows he killed council members.
Obi-Wan
is in labor, the
stress of being attacked setting him off while his bodyguards are
dead
because of Jedi.
The
council attacked the Chancellor’s son.
The
Jedi are traitors to the Republic.
Palpatine
is the Sith
lord.
And
Anakin?
Anakin
kneels for the man for his husband needs him and his father in law is
right, the Jedi are traitors and need to be dealt with and
Force they attacked Obi-Wan!
He
has… no other choice.

Murmuring
quietly to his son, Sheev carefully guided his boy through the hall
with his guards close behind.
Obi-Wan
squeezed his arm a tad too hard, groaning. “I can’t… believe
you…” He gasped. “Sent my husband away!” He panted loudly as
he continued to stagger.
“Apologies
but weld with the iron hot my son,” Sheev guided them towards the
skycar. “I’ve done the edits to the chips as you requested so be
content with that.” He said sternly to cover his concern. Obi-Wan
did not look good and he cursed the Jedi council once more, those
bodyguards were picked with good
reason and
now Sheev needed to get his son to a medical facility because the
bodyguards were dead!
It
did not help when Obi-Wan whimpered, his ripped rich blue robe with
silver stitching catching on the floor because it was wet and heavy.
“T-The
younglings will be-be fine?” Obi-Wan stammered out, trying to focus
on something different than his body aching with sensation from his
labor pains and the stress from the Jedi council.
“Yes,
the troopers have specific orders for the children,” Sheev pushed
his son into the back of the skycar and snarled an order at his
guards to get them moving.
“Foolish boy that you are, do not think I did not feel the darkness
in the Force. You goaded
them into attacking you, I know you did.” He growled at Obi-Wan
rubbing the others hands.
He
growled even louder when Obi-Wan sent him a smug if pained tinged
smirk. “It worked didn’t it? You should seen
Windu’s face.” He laughed in pain.
“Oh
yes I imagine it was very funny,” Sheev agreed sardonically,
turning his head to bark at his red dressed guards again before
returning to his son. “Until that same Jedi had you on the floor!”
He snapped.
Obi-Wan
paused, peering at his father for a long moment with only the
occasional twitch of pain and squeezing of the others hand. Then he
smiled softly.
“What?”
Sheev snapped.
“It
seems you do have a weakness father,” Obi-Wan chuckled quietly,
Sheev’s brows raising in shock. “And its me.” He continued
quietly chuckling.
“…Just
keep breathing Obi-Wan.” Sheev murmured, ignoring the sight of the
Jedi temple starting to smoke in the distance.
He
had more important things to focus on.
