Rush 18
Isis stirred to the sound of rustling fabric and muted voices. Some one was sneaking around the room. She rolled over and half opened her eyes. Anakin was attempting to get dressed without making any noise. The room was still darkened but she could see that Luke was in a doorway. He was talking to Anakin while he dressed. Isis rolled her eyes, it was cute but unnecessary. "Three quarter illume" she said and sat up. Both of them froze in shock as the lights suddenly came on . "And just where do you think you two are going?" she said. "I have surgery later I was just going to get checked in," said Anakin. "So why didn't you wake me?" said Isis "We thought it better to let you sleep" said Luke. She snorted and slid her legs out of the bed. She was about to stand up until she realized she was nude. "Ah turn around please," said Isis .she made a shooing motion towards Luke. Luke grinned but complied. Anakin stayed where he was and grinned at her. Isis cleared her throat. "Well?" she said "Well what, please hurry dear we're going to be late" said Anakin "Anakin please turn around" said Isis "Why I saw it all last night," said Anakin. She gave a frustrated growl and wrapped the sheet around herself. She grabbed a dress out of a bag as she passed and headed into the fresher. Anakin chuckled at her retreating back. She came out a few seconds later wearing a floor length dress. "What were you planning on wearing for shoes?" said Anakin She poked the toe of her footwear out from under the hem of her dress. Both guys burst into laughter. "Your going to wear ewok slippers outside" said Luke. "And why not no one can see them under the dress" said Isis Anakin was still laughing at her. Isis crossed her arms on her chest and glared at the both of them "I'm sorry dear it's just too cute, I cannot help myself" said Anakin "Come on we have to go" said Luke. He was still laughing as they walked out the door. Anakin put his arm around her waist as they waited for the lift. Isis glared at him until he removed it. Though by the time they reached the clinic her hand was resting on his arm. They did the check in and Isis filled out more forms and passed them to Anakin for signature. The surgery would be taking place in the clinics state of the art hospital. The doctor wanted to take no chances with such a delicate surgery. They waited for a while, then the doctor called Anakin into the back. He was wheeled out a few minutes later on a floating gurney. He looked nervous and a bit scared to her. "Isis?" he said softly. She leaned over and took his hand. "I'm right here Anakin," she said gently. "I just wanted to let you know something, if I don't make it through this I wanted to tell you that I always loved you" said Anakin "Shush now, your coming back to me and don't you dare think otherwise," said Isis Then she leaned down and kissed his lips. He smiled at her wanly. "As you wish my lady," he said. The nurse droid said it was time and wheeled Anakin into the back. Once again they ended up in a waiting room. Isis was beginning to hate them by this time. All the holozines were copies she had already read. The boy was listlessly thumbing the scroll button on his data pad. "So tell me what did you two talk about while I was lost at the beach?" said Isis Luke looked up from the datapad, he wasn't reading it anyways. "You got lost?" said Luke "No not really I just felt that way until a friend straightened me out" said Isis Luke looked confused again. "Her name was Kira and she was Obi-wan's Padawan," said Isis "Padawan?" said Luke "Oh yeah father mentioned something about your friends" said Luke "Really what did he mention?" said Isis "Not a whole lot beyond that you were all brought here forcibly to attend some sort of Sith school" said Luke "Yes that we were, talk about a life changing event" said Isis "Would you like to hear more" said Isis "Yeah sure anything to pass the time" said Luke. So she told him her story, starting at the beginning, from when they first arrived on Geonosis to Anakin's fall to darkness. "So you were trained as a Sith as well?" said Luke "Yes but in all honesty I don't buy into the whole evil good thing" said Isis "yeah I know and I can see your point" said Luke "The force is simply energy what matters is what we do with that energy" said Isis "Well Palpatine was definitely evil" said Luke "Yes he was perhaps under different circumstances he wouldn't have been" said Isis "Yeah and maybe a Bantha will fly" said Luke. "One thing though why did you ask about Byss?" said Luke Isis shrugged "I had a dream about it, but its silly there's no way it could be true" said Isis "What can't be true?" said Luke "He's dead we saw him die, hell I killed him, he has to be dead" said Isis Luke looked worried "that's what you saw?" said Luke "Yeah but he was younger somehow, now where was I" said Isis "You just escaped the arena and ended up on Coruscant with the Jedi" said Luke Sixteen hours later "So you and Obi wan were both watching over us?" said Luke "Yes though training you was my idea" said Isis "They didn't want to?" said Luke "No they were afraid you'd end up like your dad" said Isis "But according to you dad had his reasons for turning to the dark side" said Luke "Yes well it didn't exactly go as planned" said Isis "It still turned out all right he got us back and Leia" said Luke "Oh shit what are we going to tell Leia?" said Luke "I don't know but either way I doubt she'll like it" said Isis A nurse droid poked its head aperture into the waiting room. "Mr. Skywalker Mrs. Skywalker, Mr. Skywalker senior is being transferred to recovery now" said the droid. "The doctor says he may be seen now," said the droid. Isis and Luke followed the droid down the hall. "Please wait here," said the droid. It stopped them before some doors. Luke and Isis waited for a few minutes until the doctor came out. "He's in a sterile room so you can only observe him through a window for now" said the doctor "How did the surgery go?" asked Isis "It was touch and go for a while fortunately he is in great shape physically" said the doctor "Your fathers lungs were severely damaged it was lucky we even found viable tissue to clone them" said the doctor "How long will he have to remain in the sterile room?" said Luke. "For at least two days, during which we will monitor his bloodstream and oxygen intake just to make sure everything is functioning correctly," said the doctor. "And if they are?' said Isis "Then we will take him off the machines completely to see how he does on his own" said the doctor. "If he does all right he'll be able to go home," said the doctor. "Can we see him now?" said Luke "Yes of course this way" said the doctor. He led them into a little hallway with a bunch of windows. One of which was opened. Luke and Isis stopped in front of it. "I'll leave you two alone now" said the doctor. Anakin was lying in the bed he had wires and monitors beeping beside his bed. Isis touched the glass and reached out to touch his mind. He turned towards them and smiled weakly. "Hi sweetheart" she sent gently "How are you doing?" sent Luke "Sore son I can't talk with this tube down my throat" he sent "I know it'll be ok, doc wants to keep you for a few days" said Isis "I know you'll come visit me?" he sent back. "Of course we will" Luke sent back. Isis smiled at him reassurance. "Still tired" he sent "I know try to get some sleep you need it, we'll be back in the morning" she sent. "I'll look forward to it" he sent then he drifted off to sleep. Isis smiled at the glass maybe events would turn out all right after all. The next day Luke decided he had to call Leia just to let her know that they were all right. Leia had been understandably worried about them when they had lost contact for so long. "How is our father?" Leia asked "Recovering" said Luke "Recovering from what?" said Leia "Surgery, he was hurt very badly" said Luke "Oh dear what happened to him?" said Leia "In a word Palpatine" said Luke "That monster" said Leia "What happened up there?" said Leia "Well Isis killed Palpatine" said Luke "Wow she did, what of Vader?" asked Leia "He's dead as well" said Luke "So where are you?" said Leia "On Bellasarius four but we will be back shortly" said Luke "Oh you don't have to rush I'm sure father could use the recovery time" said Leia "Speaking of which visiting hours started ten minutes ago, hi Leia" said Isis. She waved at the woman on the other end of the com. "Isis?" said Leia "Yes Leia?" said Isis "Thank you" said Leia "Ah for what sweetie?" said Isis "For everything" said Leia. Isis smiled at her "Your welcome sweetheart, now let your brother go we've got to scoot" said Isis "Love you sis, bye," said Luke he cut off the com. "Oh man that was close" said Luke "Yes but we are going to have to tell her the truth some time you know" said Isis "Especially when Anakin, formally known as Vader declares himself emperor" said Isis "I know I just would rather not do it right now" said Luke "Luke baby she's bound to find out sooner or later don't you think she'd rather hear it from you?" said IsisWhile AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
