After Anakin Skywalker's fall to the dark side and assuming the persona of Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi told Padmé Amidala of the atrocities that Anakin had committed. Not believing what she was hearing, the deeply concerned Padmé went to Mustafar to see her husband. Upon discovering the truth of Kenobi's statements, she tearfully attempted to persuade Anakin to turn back from the dark side, to run away and raise their child together. It was then that Kenobi, who had stowed away on Amidala's starship, revealed himself on the ramp of the ship. Despite her pleas of innocence, Anakin succumbed to his anger and Force choked his pregnant wife, accusing her of bringing Kenobi to kill him. Kenobi twice demanded that Skywalker release her, which he eventually did. An unconscious Padmé crumpled to the ground. Kenobi and Skywalker engaged in a fierce duel that ended in Skywalker's critical injuries, requiring him to be surgically implanted with cybernetic limbs and a life-support suit. After the surgery, Vader immediately asked Sheev Palpatine if Padmé was all right. Palpatine lied and told Vader that in his anger he killed her. In a fit of disbelief and rage, Vader reached out with the Force and crushed a multitude of items in the medical bay, leaving the place in shambles.
