Chapter 11

The next morning, Padme had gotten up, gotten dressed in a plain dress and was just putting her hair up, in small clips, before Rabe came into the bedroom.

“ Excuse me, Your Highness. Breakfast is ready and the two Jedi are here for breakfast.” Rabe came into the apartment and just stood in the doorway of the bedroom.

“ Thank you, Rabe. I am done here, so please, lead the way.” Padme smiled at her handmaiden, as she stood up from the vanity.

Rabe stepped aside, to let Padme come out of the bedroom. She led Padme into the living room area, where the two Jedi were sitting and waiting for Padme to show up. Then, Rabe headed for the dining room, while Padme met her two guests.

“ Obi-Wan, Anakin, thank you for joining me for breakfast.” Padme walked up to the two people and gave them both hugs.

“ Thank you for inviting us, Your Highness.” Obi-Wan bowed his head.

“ You are so very welcome and please, it is Padme. Let’s just say, this is my way to say thank you for everything that you two have done for me. I only wish things could have come out different.” Padme gave the two Jedi a sad smile.

“ Yes, Milady. Padme, it is. I too wish it was different.” Obi-Wan nodded.

“ Um . . . can I tell you both something? The only person who knows about the things that happens to me is Sabe.” Padme sat down next to Anakin at the dining room table.

“ I can sense that you are somewhat hiding something from people.” Obi-Wan looked at the young girl, who was sitting across from him.

“ Yes. Let’s just say, I knew about everything that was about to happen, before it happened.” Padme started to say, but stopped, as Rabe came into the room with everyone’s breakfast.

“ Really? Like how?” Obi-Wan asked, after Rabe left the room.

“ I have visions. At first, I thought they were just dreams, but when the dreams began to come true, that’s when I realized that they are visions.” Padme looked at both Jedi, before she began cutting her Nerf sausages.

“ Really? Can you tell us what the visions are about?” Obi-Wan asked the young Queen.

“ Well, first of all, they showed us in the swamps, but it did not give the outcome of the vision. Then, like before, it showed me the battles, but it did not show me the outcome. It also shows the death of a Jedi, but like the two visions before, it did not show me the outcome, or who died.” Padme looked at both Obi-Wan and Anakin.

“ Wow. So, you did not know who was going to die, but you knew there was going to be a death.” Anakin looked at Padme in total shock.

“ Yes, I did. Like I said before, I just thought it was a dream, but it turned out to be true.” Padme began eating her breakfast.

“ You know, Jedi have visions too. Even I had a couple of them, but it has been a long time, since I have had one.” Obi-Wan smiled over to the young girl.

“ Well, for starters, I have had about six of them, just in the past couple of weeks. The strange thing is, I used to get one or two of them every two years. I doubt that I am Force sensitive, Obi-Wan.” Padme took a sip of her tea.

“ I am not too sure on that. Hey, how did you know, that was what I was thinking?” Obi-Wan looked at the young girl in shock, because she knew what he was thinking.

“ I can read it in your eyes.” Padme gave it a little laugh, at the look on the newly made Jedi Master.

Anakin also laughed too, at the surprised look on Obi-Wan’s face. He too, could read the young Jedi Master’s mind.

“ Ok, you two have had your laugh now. I do hate to say this, but it is time for Anakin and I to head back to Coruscant.” Obi-Wan did smile at the two people sitting in front of him.

They all got up from the table and Padme went with them, to where the transport was waiting for Obi-Wan and Anakin, on the Queen’s private landing platform.

“ I am going to miss you, Padme, and I will never forget you.” Anakin said, after Obi-Wan boarded the ship.

“ I will miss you too, Anakin. I will never forget about you either. Who knows, maybe we will meet each other again someday.” Padme smiled down at the young boy.

To the surprise both of them, Padme leaned down and kissed Anakin on the cheek, before standing back up. She turned around and headed back inside the palace, before anyone could see tears coming to her eyes. Anakin just stood there, with a huge smile on her face.

“ Anakin, come on. We are leaving now, so get on board, or you will be left behind.” Obi-Wan called down, but he had to laugh, when he saw the love sick look on his Padawan’s face.

Anakin turned around, ran up the ramp and into the ship. Padme just stood by the windows and watched the ship take off. A tear rolled down her cheek, and she knew that the ship was taking a piece of her heart away. One thing Padme did not tell them, was she did have one more vision, and it involved her and Anakin.
