Prompt 7C: Fragile
She felt Obi-Wan carrying her away from that place and placing her in her ship. She didn't know what had happened between he and Anakin, but she didn't even have the strength to open her eyes and ask him to tell her. She felt broken and she was having an awful time trying to breathe normally. She wasn't accustomed to feeling this weak or this fragile. She was a former queen and a senator. There was no strength in her body and she had to fight to make herself stay aware of the things that were happening around her.
She felt the ship land and then felt Obi-Wan lifting her up in his arms again and carrying her into another building. She heard voices, Bail and master Yoda were there.
"Hold on, Padme," someone was ordering her. "You have to be strong and hold on."
How could she hold on? Anakin was dead and she could feel herself dying. The Force had connected the two of them to each other, and now the Force was taking her down into death along with him.
She could barely sense her children as they were born. "Leia... Luke..."
She feared for her children now. She was afraid of what would happen to the infants if the Sith got ahold of them. Palpatine had taken her husband and destroyed him. He must not be allowed to destroyed her children as well.
She forced herself to open her eyes and look at Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan, whom she also loved.
"Hide them. Protect them." She tried to make her voice demanding, but even from far away, she could tell that her voice lacked the steel it usually had. It sounded just as fragile as she felt.
She heard Obi-Wan saying something to her... but then she was already fading and soon she knew nothing but darkness and painlessness.
