1735, Twin Fates

"What? Master Padmé is about to give birth?!" Dormé was shocked and rushed towards the inside of the manor.

"Oh, this is really a surprise, such a surprise." C-3PO also followed behind with a sway.

The navigation robot R2-D2 also beeped into it. It began to accelerate without saying a word and passed in front of C-3PO. Then at the door of Padmé-Amidala's bedroom, R2-D2 suddenly stopped and blocked the door. C-3PO slammed into R2, but could not get in.

"Please make way, thank you R2." C-3PO said.

However, R2-D2 ignored it at all and continued to block the door. There was a beeping sound from the sound module, speaking in the language of the robot.

"Oh, okay, I know it may not be appropriate for us to go in, but I just want to express my concern for the master." C-3PO said.

Beep beep beep... R2-D2 said for a while.

"Okay, I understand. Then we will guard the door." C-3PO took two steps to the side and guarded the door.

However, R2-D2 entered the room without hesitation...

"R2! You can't go in! We should guard the door!" C-3PO said quickly.

But R2-D2 ignored it at all and went straight to Padmé's bedside.

"Oh, well, at least I can guard the door myself." C-3PO said nonchalantly, then took two steps back and continued to guard the door.

Three medical care robots that were deliberately made into feminine shapes spoke in very gentle electronic voices, while each performing their duties to deliver babies Padmé-Amidala, who were still in a coma.

"A boy, very healthy." The medical care robot said softly.

Dormé took the baby boy who was carefully wrapped in a swaddle with just the right elasticity from the robot's hands. His face was filled with the light of maternal love, "Padmé Master said, if it is a boy, then he should be called Luke! Luke...Luke-God... God..."

Speaking of the surname that has become almost taboo now, Dormé choked up.

"A girl, very healthy." The medical care robot used four robotic arms to quickly swaddle another baby girl and hand it to Dormé steadily.

"Leia... If it's a girl, then her name is Leia... Leia... Woo..." Dormé was holding two babies, a boy and a girl, with tears streaming down his face.

Only she who has been following Padmé-Amidala will understand what these two names mean to Padmé...

It means entrusting oneself with the whole life and the whole world!

No one noticed that R2-D2 had been beside the bed at this moment, its electronic eyes flashing continuously. Then it used its short body to get under the table, spread out the antenna on its head, and started sending messages.

Southwest Territory, Outer Rim, Endor system, Dawn Star Planet.

Das-Malthael opened his eyes suddenly, and golden light flashed in his eyes. The incomparably powerful power even echoed in the depths of the Force, but it had no impact on the real world at all.

Looking at the communicator in his hand, a cold smile appeared on the corner of Das-Malthael's mouth.

He slowly stood up, only to see that the withered and black land around him suddenly seemed to be reborn, with green grass and shady green trees, and green grass sprouting out of the ground. Even the black land seemed to have life again.

A breeze blew by, and Das-Malthael's figure had disappeared.

A moment later, a very inconspicuous-looking Lambda-class shuttlecraft rose into the sky and disappeared into the sky in an instant.

Inner Rim of the galaxy, Alderaan (Alderaan).

Queen of Alderaan Breha-Organa (Queen Breha Organa) was sitting on the bed holding the baby girl in her arms, loving it so much, with a loving smile on her face.

"What a lovely girl... What's her name?" Breha-Organa asked.

"Leia-Amidala-Skywalker." Dormé replied with a smile (the one who really inherited the surname Padmé-Amidala is Leia, so her name is Leia-Amidala-Skywalker, but Luke is only called Luke-Skywalker).

"In her, I can feel the same vitality as Congressman Padmé. She will definitely become a kind, sunny and brave woman like her mother." Senator of Alderaan Bail -Organa nodded and said, "It's just a pity that the Empire's situation is very serious now. Maybe Amidala and Skywalker's surnames will bring her trouble."

Breha-Organa also stood up from the bed and said, "For this day, I have been pretending to be pregnant for the past six months. We all know the meaning of this girl. Please rest assured, Senator Domei, we will take good care of Leia."

"She will be temporarily named Leia-Organa, and we will treat her as our daughter." Bail-Organa said.

"Oh... she's our biological daughter, right? Little cutie." Breha-Organa teased the baby girl in her arms.

"This is also the best choice. On behalf of Lord Padmé, I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to you." Dormé bent down and saluted Organa couple with the highest etiquette.

"This is what we should do, Senator Domei." Bail-Organa quickly helped Dormé, "We will take good care of Congressman Padmé's daughter until she recovers. I look forward to the day when I see her again."

"We are all like this." Dormé said with a relaxed smile on his face.

For six months, she had been under constant pressure from the Empire, but she was enjoying the rare relaxation and warmth at this moment.

However, soon, the terror of the Empire once again haunted her heart. She lowered her head and said, "I have to leave. I can't let the Empire's spies find out that I came here privately. This may be used by them as an excuse for us to plot against the Empire..."

"I can understand, Senator Domei. May the Force be with you." Bail-Organa nodded and answered.

Dormé returned to her shuttle and came to the cockpit to pilot the spacecraft herself. She took a deep breath, turned back to the cabin and said, "Are we... going to Tatooine?"

An old voice came from the other side of the cabin, "It's too dangerous, Tatooine. Go there, Planet Dagobah. You won't be found, Dark Side."

Dormé pressed a few buttons on the navigation system, frowned and said, "This planet is not on the Milky Way star map?"

"Deleted, planet coordinates." The old voice said, "I can navigate for you. Let's take off."

"Yes." Dormé said respectfully and started the spacecraft engine.

Oh~~~~! With a flash of white light, a Lambda-class shuttlecraft broke away from the hyperspace channel and appeared outside the Naboo.

Immediately, several radar beams came over, but the shuttle immediately began to send the identification code the Empire, temporarily hiding it from detection.

Das-Malthael hovered the shuttle in the outer orbit of the planet. He did not drive the shuttle to land, but just stood up and looked at the blue planet through the porthole.

"Is it too late?" Das-Malthael's face was extremely cold. He raised his hand and waved, and the extremely powerful Dark Side Force instantly disappeared into the galaxy. He closed his eyes and looked at everything here through Force sense.

It took him several minutes before he opened his eyes again and took a deep breath. He didn't notice anything.

"Are you protecting them? The Force!" Das-Malthael gritted his teeth, his eyes full of anger and killing intent, "You can protect them for a while, but you can't protect them for a lifetime! These Twin Fatess will eventually be mine! Mine!!"

[Sir, may I ask what arrangements you have for coming to Naboo?] The voice of Imperial peacekeeper came from the communication.

"Get out!!!" Darth-Malthael, who was in a very bad mood, roared angrily, and power of the Dark Side directly knocked away the Sheriff on another spaceship in the distance!

[yes! Just follow your orders... I'll get out of here...] The Sheriff didn't dare to make a mistake, so he quickly apologized and drove the spacecraft away from a distance.

He didn't dare to have the slightest doubt about this shuttle, just because those who were active in the dark side of the Empire actually behaved in this way, without any sense of violation.

Lambda-class shuttlecraft turned the ship's bow, restarted the hyperspace engine, and disappeared into space in an instant.

"Have Intelligence Department report back to me immediately about the situation of Owen Lars's family on Tatooine! Even if they Homeworld have an extra fly, tell me!" In the shuttle, Das-Malthael connected to the Intelligence Department's communication and said through gritted teeth.

"We have agents tracking the Owen Lars family 24 hours a day, but so far, there is nothing unusual." Head of Military Intelligence Madam M's voice came from the other end of the communication.

"Waste!! You can't find Sharad-Heite, and you don't know what happened to Owen Lars! What's the point of raising you wastes!!" Das-Malthael roared.

Madam M responded quickly, "I'm sorry, sir... but there is indeed nothing unusual about the Owen-Lars family. We are also sending additional manpower to investigate the person named Al Sharad-Heite, and I believe we will have results soon."

"Tatooine is just such a big little bump! Even if you turn it over, you have to find it for me! You must find it! And Owen Lars! You must keep a 24-hour surveillance!" Das-Malthael said loudly, but then he paused again and said, "No, you immediately remove the surveillance of Owen Lars' family! Leave completely! Just make sure he does not leave the planet!"

Madam M said, "I understand. Are you saying that if you watch too closely, the other party will not make any changes? I will make arrangements now."

"As soon as possible." Das-Malthael said with a sullen face.

"Sir..." Seeing that Das-Malthael relaxed a little, Madam M asked, "Why are we following Owen Lars?"

"He will adopt a baby. This baby is very important!" Das-Malthael said.

"Understood." Madam M nodded in response. She then reported, "By the way, sir, we also found something in Tatooine..."

"If it's not A-Sharad-Heite, don't bother me!" Das-Malthael interrupted her impatiently, "Also, is there any result about Alderaan's case?"

Madam M shook his head and said, "No. Now Galactic Empire's intelligence personnel are on very tight guard, and although we signed Peace Accord, the Empire still has not opened the entry of our Duchy of Dawn citizens, which is very troublesome to infiltrate. But at least the news we have received so far is that Alderaan has nothing worth noting."

"Let your intelligence personnel continue to lurk. They are of no use at the moment, but they will be of great use in the future!" Das-Malthael said, "Just pay attention to the news about Alderaan. Planet Queen's 'daughter' is born. It is impossible not to announce such big news!"

Madam M paused and said, "Well, this is indeed true. Alderaan Queen The news of Breha-Organa's pregnancy came out a few months ago. Please wait a moment..."

She paused again as if to accept the information, and then said, "My lord, it is confirmed that Breha Queen did give birth to a daughter. Just now, Breha-Organa announced that the daughter's name is Leia-Organa, and she will become Princess of Alderaan (Prince of Alderaan)."

Das-Malthael's expression finally softened a bit, and he said coldly, "I know, it's still the same, just monitor Alderaan to a minimum, as long as there are no big problems. Don't alert the snake..."

"Yes... I obey." Madam M lowered his head and responded.

After Das-Malthael closed the communication, Madam M breathed a sigh of relief. She took out a hand towel and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

The pressure on the phone with this Grand Duke of Dawn is getting higher and higher. The majestic Dark Side Force can overwhelm almost anyone. And from before, Darth-Malthael no longer concealed his power, but displayed it unscrupulously.

"Ma'am, do we need to take further action regarding Jing Fang who is Tatooine?" Beside her, another intelligence officer asked.

Madam M shook his head and said, "You heard it too, Grand Duke is not interested in Tatooine's other things. Jing Fang is just an escaped the Empire We are just chasing Jedi Knight, and although he is from Dawn Star Planet, it seems that he has no intention of returning. As long as he does not do anything detrimental to us, let him record his information for review at any time."

"Yes." The intelligence officer nodded.

"Then A-Sharad-Heite, continue to investigate. Including Jawas and Tusken Raiders on Tatooine, don't let these tribes go. Be sure to find them for me." Madam M's face became serious.

"With all due respect, madam, this name is not very famous. It seems that it has never appeared in the galaxy. Is there any point in looking for him?" The intelligence officer was still very confused.

Madam M said in a deep voice, "I don't know what the meaning is, but have you ever seen Grand Duke personally come to capture such a specific piece of information? Even if Galactic Empire launched Saleucami Planet's attack again a month ago, Grand Duke didn't care at all. Then you should know the weight of this name! Go!"

"Yes! I'll make arrangements right away."
