The outcome was not unexpected. Anakin followed his heart and chose to become Darth Sidious's apprentice to save Padmé.
Unfortunately, his initial resolve did not last long. Influenced by the dark side of the Force, his will gradually eroded.
Ambition, desire, and jealousy consumed him.
He underwent a profound transformation.
Or perhaps he simply revealed his true nature.
After Order 66 was issued, he led the clone troopers in a siege of the Jedi Temple, attacking the Jedi Knights and slaughtering the young Jedi apprentices.
The Jedi Council ordered Obi-Wan to follow Padmé and find Anakin, but he believed they had betrayed him.
He even used the Force to choke Padmé.
Obi-Wan and Anakin engaged in a fierce battle on the planet Mustafar. During the battle, Obi-Wan gradually realized that Anakin was no longer the person he once knew.
In the end, Obi-Wan gained the upper hand. He severed Anakin's legs after Anakin had overestimated himself and left him to die at the edge of the lava.
Anakin should have died, but the Sith Emperor arrived in time to save him. However, he was forever confined to a complex life support system.
From then on, Skywalker disappeared and Darth Vader emerged.
Meanwhile, Padmé died peacefully during childbirth despite being in perfect health.
This fulfilled the vision of the Force that Anakin had seen in his dream.
Padmé left behind a son and a daughter.
Bail Organa, the governor and first chairman of Alderaan, and his wife had always wanted a daughter, so they adopted the girl and named her Leia. Bail is now one of the Rebel Alliance's main leaders and is in direct contact with Ahsoka.
Their son, Luke, was taken to Anakin's home planet of Tatooine by Obi-Wan and entrusted to Owen for raising. Owen shared the same mother as Anakin.
Obi-Wan spent the next ten years under the alias Ben Kenobi, always by Luke's side.
Today, Obi-Wan revealed his purpose to Amir and warned him of the dark side of the Force.
Amir took this warning very seriously.
He also vividly remembered Anakin's drastic personality change after he fell to the dark side.
Anakin's natural talent with the Force is well-known. He endured the brutal Clone Wars, and his willpower was unyielding. However, like everyone else, he harbored deep-seated fears.
After falling to the dark side, however, his desires erupted like an avalanche, gathering momentum until even those closest to him could not stop him.
Amir did not believe he could defeat him, nor did he intend to try.
After speaking, Obi-Wan fell into deep thought. After a long time, he gradually snapped out of it and said once more, "But do not fear the dark side."
"Besides me, there is another revered master still alive. I am currently learning from him, and you may visit him in the future. His understanding of the Force is deeper than anyone else's."
"He is Master Yoda."
Amir looked up. "Master Yoda?"
Amir had long admired the little green monster, master of the inverted sentence. Though small, Yoda was over nine hundred years old and had spent his life studying and teaching the Force to countless apprentices.
Obi-Wan thought Amir was questioning him, so he began to explain.
"I will go," Amir said after listening to Obi-Wan.
"You will gain knowledge there that I cannot teach you."
. . .
After a brief rest, Amir resumed his training. After learning the uses of the third form, defending against blaster beams became easier, but deflecting them remained challenging.
Deflecting blaster beams was a specialty of the fifth form of lightsaber combat, and Anakin and Ahsoka were among the best at it.
However, Obi-Wan believed it was a fundamental skill that all forms should master.
Amir continued his routine of repeated training until he could deflect the blaster beams with increasing precision.
Days passed in training and meditation, and everything remained peaceful.
A few days later, while Amir was training, his backup communicator, which was far away, rang.
His communicator was always on his wrist, but since he was now carrying a signal jammer, it was unusable.
He had no choice but to take out a spare communicator and position it within his line of sight so he could immediately see any incoming messages.
As for calls, he was helpless. If he got too close, the signal jammer would activate and disrupt communication.
Now, he was in this predicament—someone was requesting a call.
"Oh, Obi-Wan, where are you when I need you?" Amir muttered, walking over helplessly.
The call was naturally disconnected.
However, he could still check who had called.
It was Sain.
Amir realized that he hadn't contacted her since leaving Coruscant.
He drafted a message explaining the current situation and selected delayed delivery.
After sending the message, Amir stepped away from the communicator.
Surprisingly, a response came back quickly.
"It shouldn't take this long to get from here to Coruscant. Is Sain coming to the Outer Rim?" Amir walked forward with a puzzled expression.
Sure enough, a holographic image of a familiar Twi'lek appeared.
"Where are you, Amir? Why can't we communicate? I bought some parts in the Outer Rim and thought I'd stop by to see you on my way. I'm at hangar 34 in Mos Eisley, by the way."
Amir smiled.
He sent Sain a message saying, "Wait for me," then mounted the Bantha he had captured and tamed nearby over the past two days.
Under Obi-Wan's guidance and with Amir's Force communication, the already docile creature quickly became the new mount in the area.
After mounting it, Amir slowly made his way toward Mos Eisley.
The journey took some time, so he used his new data pad to review the information he had recorded over the past few days.
One advantage of riding a mount over driving a motorcycle or spaceship was that once you set the Bantha in the general direction you wanted to go, you could focus on other tasks without constantly paying attention to the road.
The long hours passed quietly, and he had something to do during the journey.
Along the way, he spotted Tusken Raiders on the sand dunes in the distance, prompting him to take a slight detour.
By the time they reached Mos Eisley, evening had fallen, and the two stars, one large and one small, were sinking slowly into the distant sand dunes.
When they arrived at Parking Lot 34, Amir immediately spotted Sain sitting and chatting at a small stall nearby. Next to him was a box containing the parts he had purchased.
Sain mostly traveled by cargo ship, only taking it to places not on the main routes.
"Beep! Beep!" A familiar sound came from behind the box, and BD-4 jumped out and ran toward Amir.
"Long time no see, BD-4." Amir squatted down, patted its square head, and BD-4 responded with a series of beeps.
"And you, Sain." Sain stepped out from behind the stall and greeted Amir as well.
"You look pretty good. Did you find what you were looking for?" Sain slapped Amir on the shoulder with his muscular arm.
"The process was rough, but the outcome wasn't too bad." Seeing someone he knew in this remote foreign land made Amir happy.
"Come with me, Sain. I know a great barbecue place."
"Haha, I knew you wouldn't pass up good food."
"Beep beep beep!"
