Chapter 2

*Anakin's POV*


My heartbeat is frantic as I run. Twigs and rocks flying left and right as I sprinted. Using the force I could run at an inhumane speed and to outrun the Daughter, I need to be fast.

I've been on this planet for nearly three years now. That's nearly 1095 days, 26 280 hours, and 1 576 800 seconds. That's nearly three years away from Obi-wan. Three years away from Rex. From Ahsoka. From my mom and Padme.

After the bright light surrounded us, I woke up in the Father's castle.

I immediately went to the throne room where I found him as well as the Son and the Daughter all alive and well as if nothing had happened.

The Father explained to me that because of their great power they were able to resurrect themselves.

The father also told me that since my identity as the chosen one was revealed I needed to learn to unlock my full potential and I could only do it here on Mortis.

I was outraged at what he had done. I wanted to go back to my family and friends, but every attempt to get off the planet was spoiled by one of the three Gods.

So I gave up trying to break out and decided to let the Father teach me.

Since I am the chosen one and I need to keep the balance I get lessons from all three of the Gods. The Daughter teaches me how to master the light side of the force. The Son teaches me lessons from the dark side. And then the Father teached me to combine what I learned and balance them.

Sounds really easy but it isn't.

I have also taken it up in myself to learn more lightsaber combat. So far I'm busy with form seven.

To keep me busy on this planet I've designed myself a new suit, an accompanying mask as well as many additional weapons I will carry along with my new lightsaber when I finally get off this rock.

But even though I try to keep my mind occupied it always manages to go back to memories of all my friends and family, specifically Padme.

Every night when I close my eyes I can see there standing in her pale blue dress with her long curly hair cascading down like a waterfall. I can see her smiling and hear her laugh. I can feel her lips on mine.

And when I wake up and see it was all a dream I sink deeper into my loneliness.

Even though I have the Gods here to talk to, I still feel alone sometimes. And it's in those moments of loneliness I need my family more.

The distant sound of the Daughter screeching brought me back to reality.

Using my acrobatic skill I jump over logs and form rock to rock.

The finish line is vastly approaching.

As I jump to the next rock two large claws grab my arms and lift me into the air.

" Damn it." I hiss as the Daughter takes me to the finish line where the father and the son are waiting.

I land on my feet as she drops me.

The daughter shifted from her animalistic form to her 'human' form.

" What happened today I usually don't catch up to you so fast?" She asked.

They looked at me awaiting my answer.

" My mind was clouded." I shrugged.

" About your wife?" The father asked.

He of course knows about Padme, I mean I did tell him.

" Yes, and my mother and my friends. I miss them and I want to go back."

" You can't leave just yet." The father sighed.

" Then when can I!" I yelled making the ground beneath our feet shake.

" Anakin calm down." The father commanded.

" No, I will not calm down. For three years I've stayed here and done everything you've asked of me and you're saying I don't deserve to go out and see the people I care about. That's not fair!" I yelled.

Every word I said made the ground shake more and my eyes change from their normal blue to bright orange.

The son smiled at my outburst. The yellow eyes and my anger means my dark side was poking out.

Taking deep breaths I calmed myself down. The orange in my eyes disappeared and my blue came back.

" I'm sorry for my outburst."

" You don't have to apologize. You're right, you do deserve to go out."

" Wait really?" I asked my eyes widening in shock.

" Yes, you may go out for one hour then you come straight back."

" Seriously an hour." I sighed.

" I could not let you out at all." The father crossed his arms.

" Good point." I shrugged.

" I do have one condition though." The father added as I was about to run to the portal.

" And what is it?"

" You may not communicate with anybody and you must wear your mask."

" First of all, that's two conditions, and second of all then what's the point of me going out!"

" I'm sure you can find something to keep yourself busy. If this goes well then I will let you leave for longer and see your family. Sound fair?"

" I guess so." I shrugged.

" Good see you in an hour."

With a snap of his fingers, I was flung into a portal. I landed in the underworld of Coruscant in an alley.

" Out of all the place he could have dropped me. Would have preferred Dex's diner." I mumbled to myself. My mask making my voice sound deeper than.

The underworld is the last place anyone on Coruscant wants to be. It's the place where all the criminals come out to play. Thieves, murderers, bounty hunters, and so on.

Adjusting my lightsaber on it my belt and keeping my mini sabers on my gloves I transported myself to the roof and began to wander around the city.

Since the father didn't want me to be seen I would have to stay in the underworld. But since I'm me and I don't want to stay down here I make my way to the city above.

Using alleys and the cover of shadows I stay hidden. The residents barely notice me as I walk past them.

I smile at the sight of the bustling city around me. I was never a fan of the busy market but today I'm really enjoying myself.

Speeders and cars floated above us.

I could just make out the apartments where the senators live. Where Padme and my mother live.

They are probably up there right now doing something important.

I turn my head in the other direction towards the center of the city where there in its glory the Jedi temple stands proud.

It's a place three years ago I called home. The place where I was taught to be a Jedi. The place where I was made a knight. And now it's a place I can't go to- yet.

" Give me your damn money lady!" A man yelled as he tried to rip a purse from a woman's arms.

" Let me go, help me!" She screamed but nobody paid her any attention.

Nobody wanted to get in the way of the thug, especially with the large dangerous knife he had out.

But luckily for this woman, I'm not just anybody.

" Hey, why don't you leave her alone!" I yelled.

My deep voice caused everyone to turn to me. Gasps filled the air as I stepped forward.

The man released the woman's purse and shoved her to the ground.

" Why don't you go back to where you came from boy." He sneered pointing the knife towards me.

Smirking from behind my mask I unsheath my lightsaber and ignite it. The black light hummed as I circled the man, horror edged on his face at the sight of my lightsaber.

Not only has a black lightsaber never been seen before, but he also knows that his little knife is nothing compared to a lightsaber.

His look of horror turned to one of smug as he looked over my shoulder.

My Jedi senses told me that there was someone behind me who is going to do me harm.

As the person behind me shot a blaster at me I jumped up doing a cartwheel and flicking the bolt towards a stand with my lightsaber.

People began to scream and scatter, nobody wanted to be in the way of this fight.

" How about I make this slightly fairer for you guys." I chuckled putting my lightsaber back onto my belt.

Both of them attacked me at once but unluckily for them my hand-to-hand combat skills have also improved.

I punched both of them at the same time then using the force I pushed them into an apple stand.

" Come on guys that was too easy. You could have at least gave it a little more effort."

" You think that was all the guys I have?" The man chuckled rubbing the blood dripping from his nose away.

Using my senses I sensed at least ten more people rushing to me each of them carrying a weapon.

" Now that's better," I mumbled," Okay now let's do this one at a- screw that we're on the streets let's do this street style."

As they ran at me I used my powers and teleported around them hitting each one of them with my mini unlit knives.

They groaned as the metal handles on my knives hit their stomachs and head knocking them to the ground.

Soon all of them were on the ground alongside the other two men.

" One minute and thirty seconds, sweet I beat my old record."

The sound of pictures being taken and sirens approaching made me turn to meet all the cameras pointing at me.

" Fuck me." I whispered.

A portal opened up before me, causing everyone to either scream or gasp.

With a sigh, I jumped into the portal which immediately closed after me.

As I landed in the throne room I was met with the unhappy stares of Father, Daughter, and the Son.

" Okay before you say anything I know you told me to stay hidden, but that woman needed help, and I couldn't stand back and let those men hurt her. That's just not in my nature. Besides, you told me that I should use my powers to help."

" You're right." The father said.

" Wait really?"

" Yes."

" Wow twice in one day new record," I smirked," wait even though I kinda disabled your orders I still get to go out every once and a while right?"

" Yes, but not anytime soon."

It wasn't the answer I wanted to hear but it was something.

It won't be soon but maybe one day I'll see my family again.

Don't worry guys I'm coming home.
