Star Wars: Skywalker

Now within a hole created by Abeloth, Ahsoka and Eve were faced with trying to get out from this pit.

A pit not too dissimilar to the one seen on Coruscant, but different in that they were not dying, their lifeforce secure and their energies within the Force also secure. Not being harmed still didn't mean they were safe down here, trapped by Abeloth for who knows how long.

"We need to get back to Anakin!" Ahsoka exclaimed as she was pacing around the room, more worried and nervous than Eve was.

"Ahsoka! Calm down! Now is not the time to be panicking." Eve stated calmly, even if her face also exposed concern.

"You don't understand! Anakin is on trouble, and if I am not there, I can't save him!" Ahsoka shouted back, with some tears in her eyes that threatened to spill.

"What do you mean?" Eve knew that this was more than it seemed.

"I-... Never mind." Ahsoka caught on and calmed herself down, knowing that being like this didn't help herself, Eve or Anakin. "We just need to get out of here. That is all."

Eve dropped that subject for now, instead also focusing on trying to get out of this space as well. It was comfortable enough actually, with everything that one may want or need, as it seemed like Abeloth took into account the feelings of her daughter.

'I am not her daughter any longer.' Eve narrowed her eyes as she thought this, because she may have been, or had considered Abeloth as her mother once. Now, that once no longer as she wasn't the same and she didn't consider her the same.

As such, she didn't respect the woman, the being that was once known as the Mother, now known as Abeloth, as her mother. Looking around, Eve was confused as to why she even still considered trying to regain what she had lost.

It was not what Abeloth thought she lost that Eve believed to be her motivation, but what Abeloth felt she lost. What she did lose as a result of her actions resulting in her corruption into what is what she is today.

'Maybe if she was immortal...' Eve shook her head, feeling her own loss for the woman. A mortal woman, forced to watch as her loved ones live on without her was not exactly a nice thing to bear.

She feared leaving the Daughter and the Son alone, more so than she feared leaving the Father. After all, he didn't even come visit her every time she tried to escape. It was only the Son and the Daughter that had ever gone to see her, even in her maddened state of wanting freedom.

"Did you find anything yet?" Ahsoka asked as she studied the room as well, having come up with nothing as they were fully enclosed. The place was clean, with supplies within to keep them satiated if they ever grew weary, or wished to partake in a meal.

"No... its seems like she has accounted for our needs. I thought-... I thought she was more selfish than this, but it seems like she has some kind of attachment to myself." Eve contemplated the true meaning behind Abeloth's actions.

While she may not say that she is her mother anymore, that didn't mean she was missing her family like Abeloth was. Even now, Eve, even loving Anakin and having another family there, still also loved her father and her brother.

Family was a powerful thing and the love shared between family is powerful as well. In fact, the Force itself in all its power, love, the emotion connected to this concept was considered the most powerful.

As cringeworthy, as tropey as it is, love was a power within the Force that seemed to resonate with everything. The Dark and the Light, the Good and the Bad, and opposed what Abeloth currently represented.

Chaos. Degradation. Apathy. Entropy. All of this is what Abeloth had become, and she is unknowingly partaking in such actions, despite her want for love. Her twisted sense of love for her family, and much, much more.

"There must be some sort of trick to get us out of here..." Ahsoka pondered, seemingly more than ready to punch her way out. However, that didn't seem like it would be viable.

"Maybe..." Eve was connected to the Force in a much more powerful way Ahsoka was, but she couldn't figure it out either.

The two of them would have to come up with something to better understand their position. Otherwise they would spend their entire time down here, and with no way to help Anakin in his fight against Abeloth, they wouldn't know what is going on.

They worried, of course, but through their bond, strong as it was, was also weakened in the corruption. It wouldn't be or couldn't be destroyed, just weakened so that they cannot communicate with each other.

This factor may also be a part of Abeloth's plan to get Anakin alone. Isolated from everything and everyone else all over the galaxy.

Those he is connected to in the Empyrean, his lovers, friends, subordinates, his creations, even his children to be and first child. All of it was probably foreseen in some manner by Abeloth, and even knowing what comes, she would gladly continue down this path.

The room was not made up of disgusting or mutated living components like they would of expected. After all, this was left by the Yuuzhan Vong, but it was constructed from normal technologies, which only further cemented the claims that the Yuuzhan Vong were under her control since a long time ago.

It was possible that from the very start of Anakin's merging with his new body, form and soul was when it all started.

'Hold on Anakin. Don't do anything stupid.' Ahsoka thought to herself as she looked upwards, or at least what she perceived to be upwards. Where she perceived Anakin would be and where they had come from.

"Look. There is a corridor." Eve woke her from her thoughts. Something had opened up, as if the Force was listening to Ahsoka's plea, they had been shown another path they could take.

Stepping forward, Ahsoka follows behind Eve as they enter, to leave behind their state of being imprisoned, awaiting what happens above. No, they would do something this situation instead of staying behind and letting Anakin deal with it.

'He always helps me fix my mistakes. It is my turn to help him with his.' Ahsoka and Eve probably thought at the same time, more so for Ahsoka as she was silly in following the ghosts of her visions.

Eve believed Abeloth to be a part of her mistake, a failure of her duty as a daughter to her in some fashion. A failure in her duty to keep her imprisoned as the monster she is now.

Ahsoka's visions and chasing ghosts that may have been nothing, and Eve's duties aside, the two of them were determined to help out as much as they could.

If not for themselves, if not for the others that care about Anakin, or if not for the galaxy, or even the universe... For Anakin.

"I want you, of course." Her shadowy form, becoming more and more tangible by the minute said.

There was something to be said about her beauty. Not the purity feeling one would get from Eve, and more like a seductress. A succubus.

"What about me do you want?" He asked again.

"To rule. With you by my side. How does that sound? We shall go forth, conquer, kill, cause chaos. Isn't that what you wanted? You awoke me. How charming you are. I want to have your children, do you not want that? To start a family? Is that not a part of your grandest of desires?"

Shaking his head, Anakin said how thing. "Be gone thot."

"I am not sure I know what that means, but I feel that it was not meant in a nice way." Abeloth spoke back as Anakin stood his ground before her.

In all of her glory, her self becoming more visible now than before, her form so beautiful it would capture the hearts of many men whom looked upon her.

"I did not." Anakin replied. "I would tell you to stop what you are doing, but it is clear to me that you will not stop. I may dislike some of the things the Jedi did, but I do agree that negotiations should probably come first."

"You wish to negotiate with me? You wish to accept my offer then?" Abeloth seemed ecstatic at this revelation.

"I said nothing about accepting your offer. I am pretty sure I even insulted you. Are you sure you are not angry? Do I need to remind you of why I wish to to engage with you in that manner?" Anakin took a step closer, his suit flaring to life with the energies of the Force resonating with him.

The Sands of Time unable to stop the power emanating from him still, just restricting the outside influence he would have upon others.

"If I cannot have you... Then why should my daughter? I thought you would have not minded? I am sure the rest of your lovers would not mind as well." Abeloth kept her distance from his Force energies, being well aware that it could harm her, restricting her from gaining her body back.

"It is not about sharing or not. There is something lacking, something not only lacking but you yourself don't even realize the danger you pose. Once everything is said and done, if you are to win and go through with your plan, it would be the end of everything." Anakin explained, not sure whether or not she would be listening properly.

"You were supposed to be like me? Do you not fear loss of your family like me? Especially more so now? Now that you are finally a parent, a father?" Abeloth almost seemed betrayed, as if Anakin was supposed to do something for her.

To be some sort of bridge or connection for herself. A reflection of herself perhaps, the previous Anakin would of been.

His desire to never lose another of his loved ones. To not let go. His biggest strength being his biggest weakness, but this Anakin was different and the same.

Anakin is able to be in control of such things, even if any of his lovers were to die, they would still be with him in his own realm of heaven. A place their souls may reside, just as those that have died within the Empyrean go to, and live there as fully conscious beings.

Anakin didn't go through all that trouble for nothing after all, and it was mostly for selfish purpose that such a thing was made.

Or even came about.

"I am not the same as that version of Anakin. I am who I am because of my awakening here. My memories. My emotions are all my own, all Anakin's and the difference is the level of knowledge, power and thinking that got me to where I am now. I am afraid of loss, yes, but I have the power to fight against such loss from happening." Anakin stated.

"Permanence is not permanence for me." Anakin finished as he took yet another step forward, the world was as if it was closing in on Abeloth.

"That's not right. I knew you were not the same, but also the same, but different and not different. You were supposed to be like me. I am not supposed to be alone!" Abeloth clutched her head as she said this, the world was halted by this movement.

Her curve and features becoming more and more prominent. It had reached the stage she was about ready to form herself true and anew.

"You are not alone." Anakin stated, shocking Abeloth as her glowing starry eyes looked at him. "You were never alone. Did your daughter and son not come to you, even in your state? Did they not forgo killing you, using the Dagger of Mortis?"

It was true. The Daughter, the Son, both did have such a power and possibility, but they didn't do anything. The power was within their grasp, but not one of them dared to kill her.

"I think you forget that the love of a parent is great, but so is the love of a child. I know." Anakin further pushed as he took another step forward, Abeloth shocked by his words.

How could she not of thought about this possibility? It was as if she was blinded by her desire, her needs, her anger towards their father, maybe even towards herself. "T-That's not possible! They trapped me! My children..." Abeloth mourned a bit, and looked towards the stars high in the sky.

Her form now complete, but fully unclothed and naked, she looked at Anakin. "Why do you not want me? Am I so imperfect? Are you not like me? Are we not meant to be?" Abeloth was actually greatly saddened.

"You got it all wrong." Anakin reached out, however Abeloth lifted up off the ground, and shot off into the sky.

Her face a mixture of many things. Her emotions being many, especially madness, her state way long too gone. Not even a redemption like the one the original Anakin... the original Vader had experienced would help her now.

"Chase me! Chase me and see for yourself what we can be together!"
