Chapter 25
As the white sun rose in the clear blue sky, it was the perfect day for a perfect end as Luke, Leia, Ron and Hermione descended the grand stairs once more through the huge double doors and into a nearby carriage where they were taken to Hogsmeade station. “I can’t believe it’s over for the summer and we won’t see each other for three months” Luke pointed out as Hermione then corrected him, “Well, we’ll write to each other though, will we?” she asked as Leia nodded, before giving a friendly hug to her friend, “Of course, we will. You’re our friends, we won’t forget you over the summer” she reminded her as Hermione smiled walking along the grey stoned platform along the side of the shiny, beautiful red train before they found a carriage that was half empty, “This one is half empty” Luke informed them leading them inside towards an empty compartment. “Perfect end to an almost perfect year” Ron informed them as Leia only smiled as Hermione had to know, “Luke, can I ask you something?” she asked as Luke seemed confused, “What is it?” he asked her as she answered him, “Did you tell Dumbledore about what happened between you and me inside the manor?” she asked him as Luke looked to Leia and Ron but they told him silently he was on his own, so he sighed, “Yes I did because I thought he had the right to know. I mean if he as going to give us praise in front of the school, why not our friends” he replied as Hermione smiled, “Oh that is so nice to hear” she cried, throwing her arms around him as the train started to pull away from the station.
“I am not driving with you anymore Anakin!” Obi Wan exclaimed as they rounded the corner to find the entrance to the station after a near death ride to the spaceport, Anakin laughed, “I got us here in time, Master. Didn’t I?” he asked helping Padme along the pathway as Obi Wan scoffed, “Yeah, lucky you didn’t all of us!” he shouted adding, “Padme is heavily pregnant with your third child. You’re lucky you didn’t force her into premature labour” as Anakin rolled his eyes, finally coming to a stop before the familiar gray stoned wall, “All right them, you first then” he informed him as Obi Wan scoffed, “Gladly before I have another near death experience” rushing through once more as Padme giggled, at Anakin’s anger, “Oh Ani, you are too cute” she told him as he smirked, “Despite what he thinks” he replied, before he held her hand and together they stepped through the wall and soon found themselves on the familiar platform 9 and ¾ quarters. The train was still to arrive with all students from Hogwarts but they could see all the parents arriving on the platform, and the stares started once more as Obi Wan and Anakin stood apart from each other while Padme stood in between them, her arm linked through Anakin’s. She like seeing them arguing and wanted to see them friendly again. “This is crazy. You shouldn’t be fighting like this. It’s over a silly issue. Now make up” she ordered them as Obi Wan turned away so she turned to Anakin, “Anakin, make the first move” she told him as he seemed shocked, “Why me? He started it!” Anakin protested as Padme only smiled, “Anakin. I know what happened. I saw it happen but you need to step up first” she explained using her best Senatorial voice as Anakin simply sighed, “Alright, I understand” he replied, moving over to Obi Wan, “I’m sorry, brother. Sometimes I forget that my driving can be too fast for some older people” he smirked before Padme slapped him on the arm, “Ani! Act sensible” she warned him as Anakin added, “Anyway, I don’t want to fight with you over something so stupid. Sorry I’m sorry” he admitted as Obi Wan finally turned round to look at Anakin, before breaking into a smile and giving him a cheerful slap on his back, “I forgive you. You just need to be more careful with driving passengers” he laughed as Anakin only rolled his eyes as Padme laughed, “You two are so fun together” she laughed as they both turned to her with confused stares before more voices filled the air and were coming close.
“Hello, you must Mr and Mrs Skywalker, Luke and Leia’s parents” came the voice of a woman. She had flaming red hair and seemed to be around mid 30’s, the man next to her was no more than a few years older than her and last was a child, only a year younger than Luke and Leia. “Yes, and may I inquire as to who you are?” Anakin asked as the woman laughed, “Of course, forgot to mention before. I’m Molly Weasley, Ron’s mother and this is my husband Arthur and our daughter Ginny. Ron’s been telling us all about his exciting year at Hogwarts and how he had a fun Christmas” as Anakin laughed, “Nice to meet you. Ron’s a good kid and we were happy to have him with us” he explained, noticing Obi Wan feeling uncomfortable, so he added, “Oh, this is our friend Obi Wan, also like a brother to me” as they shook hands, Molly noticed Padme’s pregnancy, “Well, congralations. I can see that you are expecting” she told them as Padme smiled, “Thank you. It was a surprise but we are excited as always” she told her before they started to engage in conversations with each other about Ron, Luke and Leia and all of Ron’s brothers and sister.
Having changed shortly after the train was well away from Hogwarts, Luke, Leia Ron and Hermione were now dressed in casual clothes and talking excitedly about their plans for the summer. “It must be exciting living on Courscant” Ron told them as Luke smirked, “Yeah, it is but mom and dad might take us to Naboo for the summer” he pointed out as Ron’s eyes nearly fell from his sockets, “Whoa, you guys go everywhere” he breathed as Leia rolled her eyes, “Luke, are you forgetting that mom’s pregnant. Maybe we may be staying close to a medical centre” she suggested, as Luke laughed, “Naboo has medical centres” he reminded her as she only sighed as Hermione spoke up, “Another sibling that’s got to be fun” as Luke shrugged, “Yeah but gets all the attention” he complained as Leia slapped his arm, “Luke, that may happen but we still get all the love we been given since we were born” she reminded him as Luke moved over to where Ron sat, whispering to him, “Leia hits hard when she’s angry” as Ron sniggered as Leia rolled her eyes and turned back to Hermione, watching the beautiful landscape streak by before coming to a easy, gentle ride. They were almost home, they thought.
Having moved out into the long corridor of the train, Luke, Leia, Ron and Hermione eagerly tried to see the platform and their parents. They were coming to a stop and a large crowd had formed waiting for their children and it was hard to see their parents. “Where are they? They should be here” Luke pointed out, scanning the crowd as Ron shrugged, “My mom introduced herself to your parents and they’re too busy talking” he told him as Leia laughed, “That would be interesting to see” she replied before she saw a glimpse of someone familiar, “There they are!” she exclaimed, adding, “Ron, are those your parents?” she asked as Ron followed her gaze, before gulping, “Yes, told you so and that’s my sister next to my mom” he informed them as the train finally came to a stop and they quickly raced for the nearest exit, as Hermione pointed out, “We should go get our stuff first” as Leia agreed, “Yeah, let’s go” she told them as they moved towards the luggage carriage to retrieve their trunks.
Anakin looked over to Obi Wan, “Do you see them?” he asked as he shook his head, “Too crowded but I can sense them, they’re close” he assured him as Anakin felt Padme clasp his hand, looking out over the crowd before she smiled, “Oh, I see them!” she exclaimed, as Anakin followed her gaze and saw them, with their two friends, their smiles lighting their faces, picking up their pace, Padme and Anakin rushed to greet them half way, “Mom! Dad!” they exclaimed, as they ran into their embrace, “Oh Luke, Leia, it’s so good to see you again” Padme told them as Luke stepped back and Padme looked confused, “What’s wrong, sweetie?” she asked as he smiled, “The baby kicked me” he told her as she laughed, pulling him back, “Oh Luke” she told him as Anakin took Leia’s trunk and Obi Wan took Luke’s, moving to the back of the crowd, “Did you guys have a great last days?” Anakin asked them as Leia looked over at Luke, “Well, I know Luke did have a lot of fun but I did too” she smiled as Anakin looked over at Luke, “Luke, what did you do?” he asked as Luke nervously laughed, “What? I didn’t do anything” he replied before an excited voice yelled over to them, “Hey, Luke, Leia, see you after the summer!” Ron called, making his way over to them along with Hermione and her parents as Luke sighed, “Of course, I’ll write to you every day” he assured him as Leia looked over at Hermione, before giving her one final hug, “I’ll write to you every day” she promised her as Hermione smiled, “Me too. I thought I’d introduce my parents to you” she informed her, “Mom, dad, this is Luke and Leia Skywalker and their parents” she told them as Anakin and Padme greeted them, “Anakin Skywalker, this is my wife Padme and our friend Obi Wan” as they shook hands, “Nice to meet you” Padme told them as they replied, “You too, come on Hermione, lets’ get going” her dad told her before turning to the other end of the platform as Padme looked to Anakin, “We should get going too before it gets too late” she pointed out as Anakin agreed, “You’re right, come Luke, Leia, let’s get going” he informed them, taking Padme’s hand and pulling Leia’s trunk behind him while Obi Wan followed with Luke’s, turning back to watch their children, “Well, we should get going. We’ll talk again soon” Luke assured them as Leia gave Ron a last hug before they ran off to join their parents and over to the exit.
“You guys must have made some great friends this year” Anakin told them as Leia blushed, “We surprisingly did but glad that you’re still here with us” she told them as Anakin laughed, “You’ll always have us for a long time” he assured them as Padme nudged him, “Tell them, honey” she encouraged him as Anakin took a deep breath before going on, “Luke, Leia, we’ve decided that after your mother has your new brother or sister, we’re going to Naboo for a family holiday and there is one more surprise you’ll find out when we get there” he teased as Luke and Leia groaned, “Oh come on, dad tell us” they pleaded as they reached the familiar stoned wall, where Anakin remained strong, “No, you’ll have to wait” he informed them, as Obi Wan disappeared from view followed by Luke, then Padme with Leia and finally Anakin, where they were greeted with the familiar sight of Courscant. It was good to be home, around familiar surroundings and it was especially pleasing to be back in the loving comfort of their proud parents.
[The end. That’s the end of a new world, a new adventure. Hope you all enjoyed it and thanks for all the wonderful reviews from all. I wasn’t going to add an epilogue to stay with the Harry Potter style of end but I thought I’d add my own touch]
Epilogue
It was the second week into their summer holidays and a relaxed Luke and Leia were enjoying their time, though disappointed that they were not allowed to use magic outside of school though there were times when they were tempted to use magic against their father and Obi Wan but held back because they didn’t want to end up in trouble and so Luke spent his days with Anakin at the Temple while Leia was making up for lost time helping her mother at the Senate. It was only a few days into the second week when Padme suddenly went into labour while in her office with Leia and her friend Bail Organa. Leia quickly called her father who rushed straight from the Temple with Luke to the medical centre where Leia had told they were on their way to. Six hours later, Obi Wan, Bail Organa, Luke and Leia are found out that Padme had given birth to a healthy, beautiful baby girl whom they named Jessica. While she had her mother’s petite angelic face, she definitely had Anakin’s beautiful blue eyes. It was shortly after Padme left the medical centre with Jessica and Anakin, that they were soon off again, for Naboo for their family holidays but also to show off Jessica to Padme’s family and prepare for the final surprise.
Dressed in her beautiful white laced wedding dress, with a few minor adjustments, as Jobal and Sola helped her prepare for her big day, dressed in gorgeous pale pink dresses while Leia sat nearby holding her little 7 week old sister Jessica and her cousins Ryoo and Pooja. “Oh mom, I can’t wait till dad sees you in that dress. You look beautiful” Leia told her as Padme smiled, “I know, it’s still so beautiful after all these years” she blushed as Jessica started to fuss so Padme moved over and lifted her into her arms, “Oh my little girl” she spoke gently, rocking her as Sola smiled over her shoulder, “She definitely has Anakin’s eyes” she noted as Ruwee entered the room, “We’re ready to start. Padme, you look beautiful” he told her as she smiled, “Thanks dad” she blushed as Jobal started to line them out, taking Jessica from Padme, “Okay, let’s begin. I’ll go outside and meet you out there” she told them disappearing from view.
Anakin stood in the same spot that he had stood all those years ago when he had secretly married Padme except now it was before all their family and friends. Obi Wan and Luke stood up front with him and all eyes were on them. Luke and Leia had begged their parents to invite their friends from school and they had Ron, his parents, sister and twin brothers. Hermione couldn’t make it as she was on her own family vacation. Obi Wan leaned in to Anakin, “Nervous?” he asked as Anakin felt a lump in the back of his throat, “No, just can’t believe it’s happening again” he told him as Obi Wan laughed, “Relax, you’ve done this before. She loves you even more” he reminded him as the music started to play and Anakin smiled at seeing Leia emerge with her two cousins, throwing flowers as they made their way to the front, followed by Sola and Padme’s closest friend Sabe before finally she entered on her father’s arm. Anakin smiled. She was still as beautiful as the day he first met her, a true angel. Taking her hands in his’s, she smiled at him as the holy man started, and shortly it was time for their vows, “Padme, I’ve always loved you and always will. You are the love of my life and mother of our three children. I will always be here to love and protect you forever” he told her as she was nearly in tears, “Oh Ani, I love you too and I will always be by your side and protecting you to assure you never leave me” she promised seeing him smile before he pulled her in closer, she wrapped her arms around his neck as he held his on her waist before their lips met in a romantic long kiss before they pulled back and Luke and Leia ran over to them as Jobal handed Jessica to Padme before everyone moved inside for the reception. Luke and Leia ran off with Ron, Ginny, Fred and George to show them around while Anakin and Padme spent their time together with Jessica, bubbling in Padme’s arms as pictures were taken and Anakin and Padme never left each other’s side, as they spoke with their guests, “You look beautiful today, Padme” Molly commented “And Jessica is just adorable” she added as Padme smiled, “Thank you Molly. It’s so nice to have you here today” she replied as Molly told her, “Thanks for inviting us” as Anakin came over, taking Jessica into his arms, as Molly commented once again, “Oh you look so natural as a father, Anakin” as Anakin smirked, “Thanks Molly” he replied, cradling Jessica in his arms who suddenly reached out and grabbed his fingers, as Padme smiled, “Someone loves their daddy” she spoke as Anakin leaned over to kiss her, before leading her out to the balcony watching their children on the white, soft sand below.
Noticing their parents watching them, Luke smirked, “Hey Leia, let’s show our surprise we have for our parents” he told her as Leia turned over to the balcony, “All right, I’ll go tell Fred and George, we’re ready” she told him, running a little bit further down the beach as Luke turned behind him to see Obi Wan appearing from the shadows, “You know that you are risking yourselves for getting into trouble right?” he asked him as Luke shrugged, “It’s not magic, and it’s mom and dad’s special night plus we want to give them a present they’ll never forget and its for Jessica too” he replied as Obi Wan laughed, placing a hand on his shoulder, “Luke, they would love anything you two gave them. This may be stretching it” he pointed out as Luke shrugged once more, “Ah, don’t worry it will be worth it” he answered him, seeing Leia rush back to them with Ron and Ginny, “Okay, we’re ready. Fred and George just said to wave when they are ready” she explained as Luke smirked, pulling out the holo recorder and holding it up to film his parents, “Hey mom, dad! We wanted to give you a magical present you’ll never forget so this is from Luke, Leia, Ginny, Ron, Fred and George to you and Jessica” he called out seeing Anakin look concerned as Leia waved over to Fred, who lit the fireworks, sending them off into the sky. Colours burst forth from the tip, exploding the dark blue sky into an array of colours as Luke continued to film the event, too captivated with the colours, he didn’t hear Leia speak till she shook him, “Luke, mom and dad aren’t watching up there anymore” she told him as he spun round, “What! Where are they?” he wondered as a voice answered him, “Look behind you” as Luke turned to see Anakin staring down at him, Jessica in his arms, eyes starting up at the sky while Padme smiled, hugging Leia, “You guys have done too much” she told them as Leia blushed, “We love you and want you to have a gift you’ll never forget” she told them as Anakin laughed, “We already do and you made it only better” he told her, moving in between them, they watched the fireworks continue to set the sky alight before Luke turned the camera over to his parents, “Well, mom, dad. What do you have to say now?” he asked, smirking, as Anakin smiled, “Thank you for this wonderful present and now you can film this” he told him, turning to Padme, he pressed his lips to hers as Jessica bubbled in his arms while everyone watched in awe, a perfect way to end the night, as a family.
The end! Hope you enjoyed this little addition to the story]
As the white sun rose in the clear blue sky, it was the perfect day for a perfect end as Luke, Leia, Ron and Hermione descended the grand stairs once more through the huge double doors and into a nearby carriage where they were taken to Hogsmeade station. “I can’t believe it’s over for the summer and we won’t see each other for three months” Luke pointed out as Hermione then corrected him, “Well, we’ll write to each other though, will we?” she asked as Leia nodded, before giving a friendly hug to her friend, “Of course, we will. You’re our friends, we won’t forget you over the summer” she reminded her as Hermione smiled walking along the grey stoned platform along the side of the shiny, beautiful red train before they found a carriage that was half empty, “This one is half empty” Luke informed them leading them inside towards an empty compartment. “Perfect end to an almost perfect year” Ron informed them as Leia only smiled as Hermione had to know, “Luke, can I ask you something?” she asked as Luke seemed confused, “What is it?” he asked her as she answered him, “Did you tell Dumbledore about what happened between you and me inside the manor?” she asked him as Luke looked to Leia and Ron but they told him silently he was on his own, so he sighed, “Yes I did because I thought he had the right to know. I mean if he as going to give us praise in front of the school, why not our friends” he replied as Hermione smiled, “Oh that is so nice to hear” she cried, throwing her arms around him as the train started to pull away from the station.
“I am not driving with you anymore Anakin!” Obi Wan exclaimed as they rounded the corner to find the entrance to the station after a near death ride to the spaceport, Anakin laughed, “I got us here in time, Master. Didn’t I?” he asked helping Padme along the pathway as Obi Wan scoffed, “Yeah, lucky you didn’t all of us!” he shouted adding, “Padme is heavily pregnant with your third child. You’re lucky you didn’t force her into premature labour” as Anakin rolled his eyes, finally coming to a stop before the familiar gray stoned wall, “All right them, you first then” he informed him as Obi Wan scoffed, “Gladly before I have another near death experience” rushing through once more as Padme giggled, at Anakin’s anger, “Oh Ani, you are too cute” she told him as he smirked, “Despite what he thinks” he replied, before he held her hand and together they stepped through the wall and soon found themselves on the familiar platform 9 and ¾ quarters. The train was still to arrive with all students from Hogwarts but they could see all the parents arriving on the platform, and the stares started once more as Obi Wan and Anakin stood apart from each other while Padme stood in between them, her arm linked through Anakin’s. She like seeing them arguing and wanted to see them friendly again. “This is crazy. You shouldn’t be fighting like this. It’s over a silly issue.

Sometimes I forget that my driving can be too fast for some older people” he smirked before Padme slapped him on the arm, “Ani! Act sensible” she warned him as Anakin added, “Anyway, I don’t want to fight with you over something so stupid. Sorry I’m sorry” he admitted as Obi Wan finally turned round to look at Anakin, before breaking into a smile and giving him a cheerful slap on his back, “I forgive you. You just need to be more careful with driving passengers” he laughed as Anakin only rolled his eyes as Padme laughed, “You two are so fun together” she laughed as they both turned to her with confused stares before more voices filled the air and were coming close.

Noticing their parents watching them, Luke smirked, “Hey Leia, let’s show our surprise we have for our parents” he told her as Leia turned over to the balcony, “All right, I’ll go tell Fred and George, we’re ready” she told him, running a little bit further down the beach as Luke turned behind him to see Obi Wan appearing from the shadows, “You know that you are risking yourselves for getting into trouble right?” he asked him as Luke shrugged, “It’s not magic, and it’s mom and dad’s special night plus we want to give them a present they’ll never forget and its for Jessica too” he replied as Obi Wan laughed, placing a hand on his shoulder, “Luke, they would love anything you two gave them. This may be stretching it” he pointed out as Luke shrugged once more, “Ah, don’t worry it will be worth it” he answered him, seeing Leia rush back to them with Ron and Ginny, “Okay, we’re ready. Fred and George just said to wave when they are ready” she explained as Luke smirked, pulling out the holo recorder and holding it up to film his parents, “Hey mom, dad! We wanted to give you a magical present you’ll never forget so this is from Luke, Leia, Ginny, Ron, Fred and George to you and Jessica” he called out seeing Anakin look concerned as Leia waved over to Fred, who lit the fireworks, sending them off into the sky. Colours burst forth from the tip, exploding the dark blue sky into an array of colours as Luke continued to film the event, too captivated with the colours, he didn’t hear Leia speak till she shook him, “Luke, mom and dad aren’t watching up there anymore” she told him as he spun round, “What! Where are they?” he wondered as a voice answered him, “Look behind you” as Luke turned to see Anakin staring down at him, Jessica in his arms, eyes starting up at the sky while Padme smiled, hugging Leia, “You guys have done too much” she told them as Leia blushed, “We love you and want you to have a gift you’ll never forget” she told them as Anakin laughed, “We already do and you made it only better” he told her, moving in between them, they watched the fireworks continue to set the sky alight before Luke turned the camera over to his parents, “Well, mom, dad. What do you have to say now?” he asked, smirking, as Anakin smiled, “Thank you for this wonderful present and now you can film this” he told him, turning to Padme, he pressed his lips to hers as Jessica bubbled in his arms while everyone watched in awe, a perfect way to end the night, as a family.
