Marie
"How are you feeling?" Obi asked me as I sat up from the bed they let me sleep in, which was weird, because I've only slept in prison beds and bunk beds. "Barely a blink." I answered and he nodded sitting at the edge of my bed. "Any news on my fighter?" I asked him and he looked at me confused. "The jet that I flew in?" I asked him and reality hit him."Oh yes, they said it might take another few days since it's an unknown jet, so the pieces are hard to find." He said and I let out a sigh. "But I also need your help, you look foreign." He said and now I looked at him confused. "The Senator is being taken back to her home, so I'm sending Anakin, her and you." He explained and I looked at BB-8 who just woke up.
"So, what am I supposed to do?" I asked him still a bit confused. "You keep Anakin focused, not to get into any trouble." He answered and I nodded. Okay, basically make sure grandpa isn't being irresponsible. "At what time do I leave with them?" I asked him and servants walked in with Padme. "First you need to change." He answered and Padme smiled at me, I smiled back and got off the bed.

(A.N. So basically this is was she wears, except the dress isn't that long, it reaches her ankles and she wears a scarf the same color kinda like what Padme did in the first movie.)"You don't think this dress is too extravagant?" I asked Anakin as we were walking with the others. "Isn't this what usually lower class wears?" He asked and looked at me. "Uh, I don't think so." I answered. "Well, Padme thinks so, but you look fine." He said and I took in a breath. "Nervous?" He asked me and I looked at him. "Is it that obvious?" I asked him and he chuckled.
"No, but I just wanted to see your reaction." He answered and I rolled my eyes, that's when I noticed how badly my brother wanted to be like him. He wanted his dark side so badly, but he didn't know he was once good and that the light calls for him, meanwhile Anakin is fighting to be good. Why didn't my brother want to be Anakin? Why did he want to be Darth Vader? "So, over there, what are you going to teach me?" I asked him as he opened the door for me and I thanked him.
"Well, teach you how to build a lightsaber, and how to use it." He answered and I nodded. "You make them with Kaber crystals, but the First-" I cut myself off from saying too much. "Uh, well Kaber crystals, right?" I asked him and he looked at me weird. "Yes, with crystals." He answered walking a bit more head. "Thank the galaxies." I muttered letting out a breath of air.
"Smooth." BB-8 said and I looked at him. "I had it covered." I said as I see some type of train ahead, we all get inside and I had to sit between Obi and Anakin. I'm sitting right between the two powerful people and one kills the other only to become a ghost, so my uncle says. "How are you feeling?" Obi asked me and I looked at him.
"I don't know, how should I feel?" I asked him and he chuckled. "Uh, confident." He answered smiling at me and I nodded. "I guess." I answered, I mean I've never had confidence before, but maybe I will. "So, Marie, how old are you?" Padme asked me and they all looked at me. "You look quite young." She added and I cleared my throat, nothing came out my mouth, I forgot! How old am I? How could I forget?!
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
"Turning 29 in ten days." I answered.
STUPID. Oh galaxies make my death not painful, make it quick.
"Wow, same day as Anakin." Obi said and Anakin chuckled. "You two are like twins." Padme said, well I mean, you have two twins. Luke and Leia. "How so?" I asked her and she smiled at me. "Well, you both are really good mechanics, smart, Jedi, the eyes, and the way you both are. So humble and peaceful." She answered and I glanced at Anakin who was, blushing? "Well, it must be a Skywalker thing." I said and she nodded, my grandmother was so beautiful and she smiled a lot. I wish I was like her, but I think I'm mostly like my grandfather.
"Anakin told me you were married, who is the lucky man?" She asked and Obi shifted uncomfortably next to me, I looked at her and gave her a light smile. "He's a pilot, also a mechanic." I answered and she nodded wanting to hear more. "His name is Poe." I added. "What's his last name?" Padme asked curiously, she was acting like my mother, who did the same thing to me when she found out I was dating Poe, except she smacked the back of his head.
"Uhh, he does not have a last name, so I gave him mine." I answered not wanting to give his last name. "I kinda want to meet this Poe now." Anakin said lightly smiling and I felt my heart race. "He's a busy man, uh, works in a military base." I said and I looked at Anakin who nodded. "Ah, we are here." Obi said getting up quickly, I kept forgetting that he's young, and that old people weren't that fast.

"This is where you live?" I asked Padme as I see this beautiful home come to view. "Not really, this is where I trained my servants, but it's still a home." She answered as we walked up the steps. "Is that sand?" I asked pointing to the beach and she nodded smiling going up leaving Anakin and I staring at the sand, I think.
"I hate sand." We both said at the same time.
"It's just annoying, I mean it literally gets everywhere." I explained and he chuckled. "It's rough, and yes, it does get everywhere." He said and I nodded. "Exactly, I don't get how people can lay on it." I added as we walked up the steps and going inside the home. "My bunk bed can compete with this." I said going to the balcony and looking at the magnificent view.
"I've never seen such a beautiful view." I said, barely above a whisper. "You've never been to a place like this?" Padme asked me and I shook my head. "The only thing I've seen if sand, ice, trees, and water, most of them only have one of them." I answered and I felt them both staring at me. "Anakin, we should take her out to see the sights." Padme whispered to him.
"Yes, but we have to do something first." Anakin answered.
"Marie, let's start your training." Anakin said, I looked away from the view and looked at him, we both walked to a different room and he handed me two crystals. One in necklace form, and the other was alone. "The necklace is for you to wear. And let's just get started on making the saber." He explained and I nodded sitting down.
"We have to start with a small generator." He said sitting next to me as he got the spare parts and set them on the table. "Okay, let's put the crystal inside here." He said putting it inside a small clear tube. "Now add this to it." He said giving me a battery and I grab the inside of the handle, then put both in there.
"Perfect, now grab these two wires, and the exto converter." He added and I did what he told me. "Here." He said handing me a flat head and I began to tighten the screws. "I think Obi likes you." He said and I stopped moving. "Oh god no." I muttered looking at Anakin and he looked away. "Ehh." I said holding that note and put my head on the desk, I banged my head too hard and I groaned.
"It might be nothing." Anakin said and I looked at him. "Is it ever nothing with Obi?" I questioned, his smile faded away. "Oh." He said and I nodded. "Exactly." I muttered going back to make this lightsaber.
