�She�s going to be fine,� Anakin said.
�I know Leia always been strong,� Han said.
�She�s like her mother,� Anakin said sitting next to Han.
�How is Padme it�s been two weeks,� Han asked.
�She�s going to be fine�they�re going to let her come home in the next few days,� Anakin said.
�How are doing,� Han asked.
�Before I thought this would make me weak�having a family but now I know I was wrong,� Anakin said.
Padme looked around her room and was getting sick of people coming in checking on her and then leaving she wanted to be home. Anakin told her she could leave in a few days but she wanted to leave now and she knew that Anakin knew this. He�d come alone and stay with her making sure she was alright and then he�d have to leave because visiting hours were over.
�Mrs. Skywalker you get to go home today,� a nurse said.
�Really,� Padme said.
�Yes your husband came by with some clothes and he�ll be back in 30 minutes to pick you up,� she said.
�Great,� Padme said getting out of the bed.
The nurse gave Padme a wide smile and left her to change and clean up for when her husband arrived. The dress was blue and had short sleeves and she knew her husband picked it out. She put it on and started to but her up along with the necklace he had put in with her clothes. She stood up and smiled at her reflection and was glad she was looking like her old self.
�You look beautiful,� Anakin said.
�Ani,� Padme said giving him a hug.
�Everyone is in the waiting room,� Anakin said.
�That good,� Padme said.
�Your acting like you haven�t seen in days,� Anakin said.
�I know�this is the first time I was able to hug you,� Padme said.
�I love you,� Anakin said.
�I love you too,� Padme said pressing her lips against his.
It didn�t take long before Anakin and Padme were back home with everyone else. They all stayed for a while and talked about everything that was going on. Anakin and everyone tried to stay on the joking with no talk about the empire or the training. Mara and Luke left right after Han and Leia since Han and Leia had to pick up Anakin at who was with Chewie. Padme and Anakin stayed up for a little longer just talking and she waned to everything he was to afraid to tell her while she was in the hospital.
�Why,� Luke asked.
�Because they want to test him,� a man said.
�We�ll tell him,� Leia said.
�Are you sure dad should go,� Luke said.
�He has to if the Jedi Order believe him anyone will,� Leia said.
�They want to test you,� Luke said.
�I know I�ll go right away,� Anakin said.
�Ani,� Padme said.
�Leia is right I have to go,� Anakin said.
�All right but be careful,� Padme said.
�I will love I will,� Anakin said then left.
�May the force be with him,� Leia said.
He started to walk to the Jedi Temple not knowing what to expect from them, since he knew there feeling for him. He looked once again at the apartment he was now living in as Anakin Skywalker. Most people had no idea that Anakin Skywalker and Anakin Vader were the same people but some did. He went into the temple and walked down the hallway he did for so many years.
�Anakin Vader,� a jedi said.
�No I an Anakin Skywalker Vader no longer exist,� Anakin said.
�I see,� he said as he went to Anakin�s mind.
�Like what you see,� Anakin said.
�Come you pass this test,� he said.
�Master Turk,� Anakin said.
�Hell-O Anakin it�s been awhile,� Turk said.
�I never kill those Jedi Knight,� Anakin said.
�I know you�ve only killed 6 in you life the emperor killed the other 14,� Turk said.
�I am here as Skywalker,� Anakin said.
�I see that�I let you live that day because I knew you�d return as a Jedi Master and you have,� Turk said.
�I have,� Anakin said.
�Yes now train your children for the emperor will soon do his attack,� Turk said.
�Does this mean I have permission from the council,� Anakin said.
�Yes Master Skywalker you do,� Turk said.
�You�re kidding me,� Padme said.
�No I was want to help them it feels so good to help,� Anakin said.
�That�s great dad,� Leia said.
Mara and Leia were sparing once again when Anakin come into the training room, he had to admit she was getting better at it. She was 3 months into the pregnancy and he knew that in a few months she would have to stay to learning lavation, mediation, and healing. He knew that she could already speak though the mind since he felt every time she and Luke do it or her and Mara. He smiled even more when she beat Mara at the duel and he knew that Mara was going to blame on her taking it easy on her.
Months seem to pass and it was basically the same for the Skywalker-Solo family they trained all day, but Leia had also taken a more active role in Republic Council. She wasn�t an official member of the council but every knew that once this was done she would probably be one. She was now only weeks away from her due date and what scared her the most about this pregnancy was it was to twins.
�Leia you�ll do fine you�ll see,� Padme said.
�I know I�m just scared,� Leia said.
�Well Anakin will be happy to have a brother and sister,� Han said.
�I know I think he knew I was having twins before I did,� Leia said.
�The council wants me to start training him,� Anakin said.
�I think that might be wise with the empire,� Han said.
�I agree,� Leia said getting up but then grabbing her stomach.
�Leia what wrong,� Luke asked.
�I�m going into labor,� Leia said.
They soon rushed her the hospital and waited three hours before she started to actually give birth to twins. Han stood at the window and looked at his children who were sleeping before he went to the waiting room to tell everyone. They had already decided names for the children, Jacen and Jaina Solo. He then began his walk to the waiting room where he would tell them about this and about their names. But a bad feeling come upon him he knew it wasn�t about this but something was going to happen and he had no idea what.
�So how is she,� Anakin asked.
�Leia is great, Jacen came first them Jaina,� Han said.
�Jacen and Jaina those are perfect names,� Padme said.
�Where is Anakin,� Han asked.
�I�m right here,� Anakin said.
�I mean my son,� Han said.
�He right here,� Mara said.
�Dada,� Anakin said as Han took him.
�We can go see her if you want,� Han said.
�Good,� Luke said.
�Let�s go see your brother and sister,� Han said.
While everyone went to Leia room Han took Anakin to the window where Anakin saw his brother and sister for the first time. Anakin smile grow when he saw the two tiny baby�s sleeping and Han knew he knew that he was a big brother and he hugged Han closer. His head rested under his chin and Anakin closed his and began to fall asleep when a man come up behind Han.
�Solo,� Lando said.
�Calrissian,� Han said softly.
�What you doing here and who is this,� Lando said pointing at the same child asleep in his arms.
�My wife just gave birth to twins and this is our first born Anakin,� Han said.
�Your married with children,� Lando said.
�Yep her name is Leia,� Han said.
�Never thought of you being married�can I meet this lovely lady,� Lando said.
�Sure come on�Chewie will be back in two days he went to Kashyyyk,� Han said.
�Han,� Leia said.
�How you feeling,� Han said.
�Great if you want you can lay Anakin on the couch,� Leia said and Han did.
�Everyone this is my old friend, Lando Calrissian. Lando this is my wife Leia her brother Luke Skywalker, his fianc� Mara Jade and her parents, Anakin and Padme Skywalker,� Han said.
�It�s a pleasure to meet you all,� Lando said.
�So what are you doing here,� Han said.
�I thought I saw you come in here about 31/2 hours ago so I went to investigate and I was right. But I�m here on a business trip. I am now the administrator of the Cloud City on Bespin,� Lando said.
�Wow I guess we both have went through some changes,� Han said.
�That we have,� Lando said.
A few weeks had passed and Leia had gotten most of her strength back and was back at doing some simple exercises for her training. She like Han could feel that something was coming something bad, but she had no idea what it was. So she began her training a little faster then anyone wanted her too. But far away in a palace of darkness the emperor stood with a wicked smile on his face as one of his guards entered his throne room.
�They are born,� Emperor Palpatine said.
�Yes my lord,� a guard said.
�Their names,� Emperor Palpatine said.
�Jacen and Jaina,� he said.
�Ready the battleships I want them and ready their rooms,� Emperor Palpatine said.
�Why start a war my lord if all you want are the children,� a guard asked.
�Leia love protects them and when they are fighting the battle they will leave the twins with Padme and we will take them and kill her,� Emperor Palpatine said.
�What about young Anakin,� he said.
�Bring him too�he is the oldest and will take my place as emperor someday,� Emperor Palpatine said.
�Right away my lord,� he said.
