[Standing on the second level with his arms crossed. Heaving mechanical breathing is a go~ And Anakin is in a black suit and well... it's vader! Even his voice is strange. I cannot describe it. D: If you don't know his voice go here.]

This isn't funny.

I have a really bad feeling about this.

[way to state the obvious]

Mom. I'm sorry.

[he shakes his head and forces a smile. He doesn't want to take the chance of someone Buffy appearing and yelling at him for sulking :|]

Buffy, was it? You'll find the lightsaber crystals on the Adega system, Ilum, and Dantooine. Far from this place. It'll, uh, be impossible for you to make one.

But... [trails off :>]

This is where the fun begins. [over the radio you can hear his lightsaber of course humming and bullets being fired. If you're near him, you'll notice that he's deflecting the bullets with his lightsaber and he's trying to make that they bullets don't kill the cops. He's also using the force to push them back into a building and rip the guns out of their hands.] ...Okay, I was wrong. It's only fun when droids are involved.

Does anybody have a plan to take back the city?

[Anakin is using his lightsaber as a means of a flashlight and he's wrapped in his cloak. He's just working on his mechno-arm because that's all he can really do in the dark. So there at a lot of tools around him, be warned. R2 is also adding to some of the light by playing a hologram. A small image of Padme is on the ground and she's just waving and smiling and then repeats itself. Keeping Anakin company since his wifey is gone perhaps?] I really hope Snips hasn't gotten herself into trouble...

[a roll of thunder goes by]

If the power doesn't return soon, I fear the food in the refrigerator will go bad.

[His lightsaber it out, the blade is humming and he's twirling it around - unable to stay in one spot. Anakin isn't able to control his emotions and he isn't even bothering to hide them.]

Not the younglings...

I-I should have sensed this! A disturbance, something in the force I should have been able to sense.

Padme, find Leia and stay inside. I... I don't want you two getting involved.

...Mom...? [he tilts his head to the side, just a bit stunned since his mother is dead. He isn't sure how this is possible. But.. he does have those weird dreams, maybe this is one of them. Meaning... what if mommy is really alive. But she's walking away and he's confused]

Mom, wait! I-I... I'm sorry, before I couldn't but... I can protect you now. I-I'm stronger!

[but ghost!shmi isn't stopping and anakin is trying to catch up. However, the room he's just in, the door is closed and locked and the ghost is still walking away. Anakin is trying to turn the handle and open it.] No, Mom! No! I-I's me, your son!

[he can't open the door and he's too messed up to look for a key, so he's resorting to the next best thing. Lightsaber out and he's putting it through the door to create a new opening. After he does that, he pokes his head out and looks up and down the hallway. Ghost!Mommy is gone.] Where... Don't worry, Mom. I'll find you and we'll leave together.

[he's just chilling on the second level, holding Leia's poncho. He has this really... weird feeling that he can't shake off.] I never did get her name...

Well, that was most certainty interesting. Quite irritating though. I don't want it to ever happen again. I don't exactly miss being a kid. I just miss mom. And, I haven't thought about Kitster or Wald in ages up until recently.

Padmé, can we talk?

[Little Anakin is sitting on a park bench and he looks tired. Really tired. His stomach is also growling. He most likely hasn't eaten since breakfast. This is what he gets from running around and trying to help some of the kids. And his little race he had with Jack earlier took a lot out of him. He yawns]

A lot of the kids seem lost. Where are our parents? Why didn't they come with us? They... didn't leave to go to another planet did they? Like that one lady was talking about. What happened to her. Her mom left her to go to a planet because she had a job to do. But mom would never do that... [another yawn] I miss her, so much.

Some of the adults are confused too, I don't know why.

I'll be strong, promise mom. [snuggles up on the bench]

Mom! Mom!

Mom...?

Where am I? I had a dream once that I flew away from Tatooine but it couldn't have been real. I don't have a ship.

Watto is going to be angry. I didn't run away though, I swear. ...Uh...oh... the chip is still inside... I didn't run away! I didn't!

Can someone tell me how to get back to Mos Espa? I have to get back before the chip activates itself.
