Luke Skywalker is one lucky 13 year old boy, from a certain point of view. Loyal servents who obeys his commands, the best tutors the Galaxy can offer, combat and tactical training, loyal droids who keeps him company, and he happens to be the Imperial Prince; next in line for the throne. And Luke Skywalker hated every single moment of his it. How he wishes he can escape this miserable life and fight for he believes is right. But unfortunately for him, his father is Emperor Vader. The fallen Jedi who was once called Anakin Skywalker.

Ever since Anakin discovered Luke when he was 10 years old, he found the strength and motivation to kill Emperor Palpatine. At first Luke was excited to finally be reunited with his father, happy that he was getting of that miserable dustball of a planet and living in a luxury palace in Coruscant, having a chance to fly free instead of being a farmer for the rest of his life. But then he realized something is seriously wrong with his father.

After Anakin killed Palpatine, his father became incredibly possessive of Luke. He has no doubt in his mind his father loves him, but in a possessive kind of way. The first red flag was Luke asking Vader to talk to his Aunt and Uncle after leaving Tatooine.

"Oh Luke," Anakin chuckles placing his hand on top of Luke's head, "There's no need to talk to them anymore. I'm your family and I'm all you got." It wasn't for a couple of months when Luke realized his father has murdered them.

Then his father has locked him in his room all day and all night everyday since he arrived here three years ago. The only times Vader has let him out is to eat with his father for dinner. At first Luke didn't mind being locked up since he has a hologram in his room and droids to keep him company. But after awhile it all became boring. Luke didn't like being kept in his room all day. He wanted to fly around the planet, meet different people, spend some time with his father. He remembers asking Vader for a little bit of freedom.

"Oh Luke," Vader warmly smiles at his son. He bends down and hugs his child. "My precious Little Prince. It's very dangerous outside. The Galaxy's a dangerous place for a sweet boy like you. The safest place for you is at home. That way, you'll be protected by my apprentice and Inquisitors." He explains.

There is only one bright side to being locked up: Galen Marek aka Starkiller. Galen is his father's apprentice and Luke's personal bodyguard. The rare times Luke can step outside for a public viewing, Galen is right besides him. Somehow, Luke has warmed his way to Galen's heart since Luke's the only one who can get away by calling him by his actually name. And he knows Galen does care for Luke even though he doesn't show it. But Galen isn't enough for Luke to want to leave this prison.

That's right, he doesn't consider his home if all he does is be locked up in his room. He's been wanting to leave since it became clear to him that Vader's possessive of him. He just needed someway to leave this prison. Then by the will of the Force, his prayers has been answered. When he hacked into a communication droid, he somehow contacted a rebel agent who goes by the name Fulcrum.

"Who is this?" A distorted voice asked.Luke, bless his good heart beams at the faded imagine. "My name is Luke Skywalker. Nice to meet ya!" He greeted."Skywalker?! You're Luke Vader, the Imperial Prince!"Luke's smile dropped down a little since he doesn't like his title. "That's not my name and I don't like to be called a Prince.""...My apologies, Skyguy.""Skyguy?""It's what I used to call your father before he turned into the Dark Lord.""You knew my father!? What was he like?""He was my best friend and my master. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Ahsoka Tano."

Ever since that day, he speaks to Ahsoka every week for two hours. She tells him stories about her Jedi days with his father. He can hear the admiration in her voice and the sadness as well. She's also been teaching him how to shield his mind since she told him he's an open book. Luke took her lessons very seriously since he doesn't want Galen, the Inquisitors, and most of all his father to know his planning to escape.

Oh how he wishes for his father to be Anakin Skywalker again. Then he would have no need to escape from him. But that will never happen. His father has fallen so deep in the dark side for him to think rationally.

It was Luke's 11 birthday and Vader wanted the whole Galaxy to view his birthday celebration. He's walking next to his father who is smiling with pure joy and Galen on the other side in a protective stand. He's also surrounded by Stormtroopers for extra protection.The servants brought out the cake to be cut off. The cake was huge and decorated very beautifully. In his excitement, Luke ran ahead to cut the cake. He had failed to notice his shoelace was untied and his face planted face first on the ground. The whole room gasped as his face connected to the floor. He felt a throbbing sensation on his nose and a warm substance as well."LUKE!" Vader cries out. He immediately went over to his son's side and scooped him in his arms."I'm fine, Father." Luke assures him, giving him a cheeky smile.Vader's fingers gently caressed his face and onto his nose. When Luke flinched in pain, Vader's rage increase by a planet side.Vader turns his attention to one side of Stormtroopers and clenches his fist. They all cried out in pain simultaneously and their necks snapped in unity."That's for failing to protect your Prince! And the same thing goes for all of you if he gets hurt like that in the future!" Vader warns.Hot tears rolls down Luke's face as his father looks down at him. "You didn't had to kill them." Luke whimpers."Don't worry, Little One. You'll forever be safe with me." Vader assures him.And on that day, Luke knew he had to get out of here.

Now Luke felt ready to leave, to be free of his father's shackles. He gave Ahsoka the go-ahead to rescue Luke during his birthday celebration. She promised she'll rescue him, even if it kills her. Luke will never forgive himself if Ahsoka dies because of him. Especially if his father's the one who does the deed. But he can't think like that. He has to have faith in Ahsoka's skill and the Force that the rescuing will be successful.

His door slides open and Galen steps inside his room. "Good morning, Luke." Galen greeted. Starkiller and his father are the only ones who calls him by his name instead of being referred as 'The Prince'.

"Good morning, Galen. What makes you come by this earlier. The party doesn't start for another three hours." Luke asked.

"Your father sensed something dreadful will happen to you. So he sent me here to keep an eye on you, in case anyone tries to kidnap you." Galen explains.

Luke's body turn icy cold. Don't tell me he's gotten a vision of my escaping! He panics. He skillfully hides his panic demeanor. "With you protecting me, my father will have nothing to worry about." Luke beams.

"I am his best apprentice." Galen smirks with pride.

"You're his only apprentice." Luke corrected. They shared a laugh as Luke hides his dreadfulness from the inside.
