Chapter 43
In Anakin’s memory, Tatooine has no better days than today. Although the warm twin sun is still exposed in the sky, it can’t be burnt to his skin, the breeze blows, and there is no dust that is uncomfortable in the past; he quickly passes through the crowded streets and alleys of Mos Espa.
No more fear of those fierce interstellar smugglers.
Only when the fresh air hit the face in the morning, he could confirm that it was all free; he was far from Watto and its shop, away from the unfortunate past.
Only when Mos España layered the stack of simple houses, he relaxed his footsteps, and looked at it with some sadness; all his friends were there, they were all slaves, and sometimes some had to face When the fate of the right happens, he can only look at it sadly.
As long ago, the little girl named ‘Ami’ and her mother.
Soon, Anakin stepped up and flew to his home; Shmi was waiting outside the house, and she tied her hair behind her head with some silver metal ornaments. This adds some vivid colors to her. Her dress is usually plain, but today she laughs very well.
“Anakin, slow down!” she said with a smile. “There is no need to worry about moving things.”
“But you are here, I will worry about you!” Anakin looked at her seriously, and there was some fear in her eyes.
Shmi’s heart was a little worried. She put his head in his arms and whispered, “It’s okay, everything is gone.” Shmi clearly felt his fear, Tatooine’s life was not as good. It seems so comfortable, since Anakin has been conscious, he has a deep fear.
That is the fate of being afraid of being separated, and also the attachment to her.
This fear reached its peak when he was seven years old, and they almost lost each other.
“It’s okay, Anakin, you have the courage to protect me, isn’t it?” Shmi rubbed his face and said softly, “Go buy some fruit! I heard that your teacher came to the guest.”
“Well! It’s two Jedi, they have Lightsaber around their waist, that is… the one you know.” Anakin’s eyes were full of expectation expression, leaping from her arms, “That I Go first.”
He pulls his feet and runs, briskly like a young deer. Whenever he encounters a smuggler and a mercenary looking for something, he will reveal the light blade handle on his waist, so that no one will stop the eye. Under him.
“I want to protect myself and protect my mother.” Anakin remembers what he said to Chen Ang a few weeks ago. “My strength will protect those who cherish and do the right thing.”
“You are so good.” Chen Ang praised him, and then he was beaten for a terrible blow. “But you need to be really powerful. Of course, you need intelligence. Otherwise you won’t be stupid. Now say these words!”
Anakin remembered that he had been knocked down to the ground without any resistance. Chen Ang held a wooden sword and said to him: “How much capacity, how much responsibility, and your responsibility is so great, you must be very urgent. Need strength. Now, get up and practice this set of swords for three hundred times!”
These trainings are not useless. At least now Anakin is enough fierce to scare off the villains who are looking for things. His blade is also strong enough.
But Chen Ang said to him: “You are lacking murderous.”
Anakin asked him how to have murderousness. Chen Ang replied: “When you have a kind of helpless fear and sorrow in your heart, there is an anger that makes you love the sword for love. You naturally have these, you are not enough. Decisive, just missing some experience.”
“Some experiences that will make you firmly take up the sword.”
Anakin quickly took the sweet fruit from an Old Lady, and suddenly heard the noise from the back, and even the cry of a woman crying.
“What happened?” Anakin was strange. There was some faint uneasiness in his heart. It seems that the scene three years ago reappeared.
“Slave search.” Old Lady, who hurriedly put away the stall, told him, “You are going to find a place to hide. The damn Interstellar Pirate is coming again. They are armed with guns and suppressors. Whoever they want to catch, many people. I have been robbed in this way, and their family has never heard from them.”
Anakin ran away. He was like a leopard. He quickly approached his home. On the way, he saw many scenes of suffering, but he was always helpful and did not dare to stop. The fear of words has tightened his heart.
At the corner of the door, he saw something that made his heart blow. It was a small silver card, and he stayed on his mother’s head.
“No!!!” Anakin yelled, his eyes began to blur, he rushed to the warm little home, panicked around, everything seemed to be intact, only a warm shadow, his most precious things, Disappeared without a trace.
“mother…” He couldn’t help but shouted loudly, raising the hilt of the blade with anger, standing at the door and shouting loudly.
“Run, Anakin, your mother was taken away by Jaba. You are going to find someone to save her!” His neighbor Titi Claunera stood at the door and shouted at him.
A tall, sly creature suddenly grabbed her hair and slammed her on the floor. “Hey! I found a fish that escaped the net. haha!”
It was full of a ferocious smile, and with a smashing alloy knife, it came towards Anakin.
Anakin’s eyes were cold and cold, and it made him a little uneasy. He shivered and raised his hilt. Uncontrollable anger, remorse, and surging in his heart, “When you have a fear of helplessness in your heart, And sadness, when there is an anger that makes you swing your sword for love, you will understand how to do it.”
Chen Ang’s embarrassment, let him break the last string in his mind, the fierce light blade in his hand swayed sharply, never decisively and decisively, he remembered Chen Ang’s teaching, the light blade in his hand Hit the weakest place on the alloy knife.
Using the force and energy, it forced it to reveal flaws, and then the storm-like attack, the light blade crossed an arc, with Anakin’s roar, split its limbs.
The blazing energy plucked on its limbs, and Anakin provoked it, grabbed it in his hand, and an alloy claw stopped in front of his eyes. “Have you brought my mother there?”
The pirate mourned and didn’t answer, then it got more terrifying treatment, and the intense pain made it suddenly wake up. “They went to the gate!” It screamed.
Anakin dropped his body, and the right hand waved his blade and cut off his head. He glanced a sigh of Titi Clauella and saw her rushing to the city gate after she stood up with pain.
Along the way, tears burst out, she may have disappeared without a trace, may be injured and killed, may be afraid now, these fears of thoughts make Anakin unable to bear, can only grasp the light blade in his hand, catching tighter.
Until he saw the shadow and saw the warm and familiar silhouette, she was crowded in the crowd, and the mercenary pushed it awkwardly. For a moment, Anakin saw clearly from her face. Fear and shock made him unable to move at once.
He never saw his mother fear, and for him she was always a symbol of calmness. For a time, she revealed the fear of her life to him.
When she saw him, the crazy expression immediately disappeared from her eyes, only a deep worry and distress, “Go!” She silently gave him a mouth shape.
However, Anakin did not listen to her. He pulled out the light blade in his hand and was wrapped in the crowd. Close to the group of pirates, Shmi’s eyes were deeper and deeper. Her anxiety seemed to overflow her brows. She was desperate. He was glanced at him, but he couldn’t help but look at him, step by step toward the crowd.
Shmi slammed his eyes and rushed toward the pirates, attacking them fiercely.
“No!” Anakin yelled, he couldn’t watch her and sacrificed like this.
A big hand held his shoulder and a familiar voice came from his ear. “I have taught you how much you can bear, how much responsibility you have, and you don’t seem to put it in your heart!”
Severe voice, suppressed anger, did not make Anakin feel fear, he was very happy, holding the big hand and eagerly said: “Teacher, save her!”
