"Somehow I've never learned to look at you as another Jedi."

- Anakin Skywalker in ''Attack of the Clones AU

Read it here, here and here.

There is a sequel series planned, but only the first story, The Chosen Apprentice has been completed.

"Anakin: I never knew how much I loved you before, how much I cared, and how much it would hurt if I lost you."
 * Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: Qui-Gon and maybe.
 * Affably Evil:
 * Alan Rickman: The author has said that he would play this character, complete with accent, if he was in the films.
 * Alien Scrappy: Heavily averted. There is a Gungan in these stories but he is a morose silent type and a great big bird that he leads a squadron of in the final battle of the first fic.
 * Alternate Character Interpretation: Padmé Naberrie obviously, never Amidala!
 * Alternate Universe Fic: and this turns into an Alternate Continuity
 * Always Save the Girl: Anakin, to the point of tricking Obi-Wan into thinking they were going somewhere else in order to save Padmé.
 * Anguished Declaration of Love: And it's much better than in the film.

" You'll never know, Master Yoda. Even you, with all your knowledge of the Force, will never truly know what the dark side truly is and why it ensnared me."
 * Artificial Limbs: Padmé gets one of these.
 * At the Opera Tonight
 * Body Double Sanné is this for Nalanda.
 * Cassandra Truth knows his betrayal is this and this is why he lets her live, as they wouldn't believe her if she told them.
 * Charm Person Padmé with the guy at the bar who is trying to hit on her.
 * Combat Pragmatist Padmé and Anakin talk about this, and this is why.
 * Come Out, Come Out, Wherever You Are when fighting Padmé.
 * Cosplay
 * Crowning Moment of Heartwarming So many, like the Underwater Kiss
 * Cyanide Pill when captured in a cage of lightsabers by Yoda.
 * Defiant to the End

"Padmé: Looks like I'll have to make the first move."
 * Died Happily Ever After
 * Died in Your Arms Tonight
 * Distaff Counterpart Maxah to Maul, and they both die in the first episode.
 * Does This Remind You of Anything?

""What did you do?" Padmé shouted. They were hanging on to the back of the speeder as it took a nosedive through the lines of air traffic. Anakin had his free arm around her and for once she didn't mind. "I disconnected the engines,"\x9D Anakin replied, though it was almost impossible to hear him. "You WHAT?"\x9D She looked at him incredulously as the ground started to come into view. "Don't worry,"\x9D Anakin said with a shrug, "this isn't the first crash landing I've caused.""
 * Downer Ending And how!
 * Dreaming of Things to Come Played straight and subverted.

 * Fighting Your Friend Anakin vs Padmé. The first time they are just practicing, the second it's for real.
 * Final Speech Played straight and averted twice.
 * Heroic Sacrifice
 * Hilarious in Hindsight Has Anakin with a female apprentice (but human rather than pretty alien) years before Ahsoka Tano in The Clone Wars turned up.
 * His Heart Will Go On
 * Honor Before Reason
 * Hover Board Named a Repulsorboard, Padmé uses one of these in the chase scene on Coruscant.
 * I Didn't Mean to Turn You On Most of the second two stories, Padmé's fighting against Anakin's growing attraction. She doesn't succeed.
 * Impaled with Extreme Prejudice When  is contained in a cage of lightsabers held together by Yoda, he kills himself with his own lightsaber and is carved up by the blades of the cage. One would think Yoda would have moved them in time so as not to leave such a mess on his nice temple floor.
 * In the Back
 * I Shall Taunt You
 * It's Not You, It's My Enemies Sort of, but Padmé never explains this to Anakin.
 * Last Kiss
 * Love Epiphany During the Underwater Kiss
 * Love Hurts Explained by, of all people Yoda.
 * Love Redeems
 * Married to the Job Padmé is this, to some extent. Though she has been trained to be a Jedi from birth.
 * Message in a Bottle The first fic starts on this, as the reason Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan come to Naboo is because of Padmé's message about the failure of the negotiations and the death of her master.
 * Treacherous Advisor
 * The Mole
 * The Mourning After after

 * Dual-Wielding Renust Nju
 * Suspiciously Similar Substitute Nalanda
