"Clone Wars AU" Giftfic for @chiis-art !
When Palpatine takes Padawan Skywalker on a โfield tripโ through Coruscant, with the intent to persuade Anakin into seeing his way of thinking and nudge him instead toward the Dark Side, the opposite happens. Upon seeing a woman being tormented and hurt by her captors in the street causes him to see a vision from the future.
In his panic, Anakin runs back to Tatooine in order to be reunited with Shmi and prevent her inevitable death as well as the would have been slaughter of the Tusken Raider Tribe. Due to this, itโs all preventedโฆthough, now Master Kenobi is without a Padawan.
Years later, during the Clone Wars, Jabba the Hutt wishes to meet with Master Kenobi on Tatooine about his missing huttlet. With his new Padawan, Ahsoka Tano by his side, the search is on, though, the Huttlet is not as far from home as previously anticipated.
โฆand it turns out, neither is an old friend.
Rated T for Language, Canon Typical Themes, and feels.
(So, this is late as all hell and Iโm really sad that the Obikin Exchange got cancelledโฆbut I still wanted to gift this fic anyway.
Merry Christmas in July @chiis-art !)
