Jacen is stranded on a strange planet with five very different survivors. He struggles desperately as he tries to keep the group together while fighting against the elements. Jacen is tested to limits he didn't know existed, and in the end, he needs to sacrifice what he loves most.

Jacen is on a scouting trip for his mother when he bumps into the woman of his dreams. She is tied up with a deeply entrenched crime ring, and not only does he have to rescue her from them, he has to save himself from the same fate.

In an alternate universe, Anakin Skywalker was taken from his mother at the age of four. He was raised as Darth Vader in a loveless, brutal environment. His life takes an interesting turn when he has an encounter with a certain senator from Naboo.

After the death of QuiGon Jinn, Anakin is adopted by Palpatine and raised to be his right hand. When Palpatine orders his young protege to assassinate the Senator of Naboo, who he suspects of treason, what will Anakin do? Very AU.
