He may be Vader someday later, but now he's (justasmallfry) wrote in makebelievelog,

For the first time Anakin’s head snapped around so he could look at Padmé. Chancellor Palpatine was Sith? The man had always been kind and open to Anakin. He was helping people, wasn’t he? Didn’t he help Naboo when the Trade Federation had laid siege on the planet? Luke had mentioned a great evil had descended on the galaxy, but it just didn’t seem possible that Chancellor Palpatine was that great evil.

On the other hand, it wasn’t as if Padmé had ever given him a reason to think she was lying. Aside from the whole handmaiden thing, that is. But he understood why she did that, it was for protection. She wouldn’t lie about something like a Sith Lord’s identity.

It was a lot to take in. And it still didn’t answer the question of why his master was ignoring him.

Then came the realization that it didn’t really matter why, did it? The result was still the same whether Anakin knew the cause or not. He wasn’t anyone’s Padawan anymore. His whole world had been wrapped around the idea of that designation, and how could it not? Just a twelve year old boy with no resource, he had no home but the Temple. He was at the mercy of the Council and without a master how long before they concluded it was in their better interest and resources to discontinue his training? He wasn’t at the Temple anymore, so he wasn’t sure what this all meant now.

“So I don't know... what now?”
