mission
beep beep beep
Anakin groaned and slapped his hand against the small nightstand next to his bed, picking up his com link and answering with a hint of a growl in his voice
What
Anakin, you and ahsoka need to come to the council room for a mission
He hung up and somewhat rolled out of his bed, getting on his jedi attire and clipping his lightsaber to his belt and brushed his hair a little. Walking to his door he palmed it open with the control pad, walking through the small room that separated him and his Padawan's rooms
His hand gently knocked on her door and she stepped out, already ready with her lightsabers clipped to her belt
Hey master
Hi snips, ready for another mission
You know it skyguy
Great let's go
They walked down the hall, passing a few other jedi and finally reaching the large double doors of the council, walking in they stood before all the council members, some in hologram and others were physically there in their seat
Yoda's voice echoed through the room
A factory on geonosis there is, reactivated it has been, producing many droids it is
Destroy it you must
Master windu spoke next
Skywalker, this factory is a great threat to the republic planets near geonosis, we trust you and your padawan will not fail this mission
They bowed and left the room to start prepping their starfighters and land in the hangar of the cruiser, the resolute
Ahsoka jumped onto her red/crimson colored starfighter, opened the hatch and slid inside the small space while telling her droid, r4 that sat in the small compartment on the front of her fighter just like anakin's droid, r2 boosted up into his space
Anakin set up his communication to where he could talk to his troops and ahsoka
You ready snips
Always skyguy
They lifted off and landed in the cruiser's hangar and Anakin landed next to ahsoka
When they entered the bridge all the clones there saluted and stopped anything they were doing
At ease men
He walked past them and looked out the view port of the bridge and looked at the blue flashes of hyperspace, remembering his past and how he grew up as a slave and now he meets ahsoka and her species is a target for slavery, he needed to protect her, he did not want that life for her
She appeared at his side and looked up at him with a smile
He smiled back gently and rubbed her shoulder
Her eye marking curved into a questioning look and he chuckled a little
He stood there for a while just staring into the blue swirls and lines, thinking about how much he cared about ahsoka, he'd do anything to protect her, he would not let anyone hurt his little snips. He cared so much about her, so much he would die for her in the hopes of her becoming a jedi knight and up to a master, all for her
She had already left the bridge and gone back to their shared quarters, but he lingered there on the bridge, he would always protect her until his dying breath
He took in a deep breath knowing that in a few hours she would be in danger again, every waking moment getting shot at and no time for happiness
Just a few hours and we all could die
He whispered quietly to himself as he walked down the hall to familiar hall of the med bay, he remembered he'd had to carry his 16-year-old padawan there at least 3 times if not four, he remembered his clothes being stained with her blood when all was said and done
His memory went wild of all the times she had almost died, and he had been sitting there in that emergency room for hours on end, seeing the med droids and even some of the jedi healer's cloves coated in blood... her blood
The memories were now very vivid, the time she had been shot five times and when he had crashed his star fighter while flying in front of hers to prevent an explosion in her fighter that could have killed her
He walked back to his quarters to see ahsoka lounging on the couch watching whatever came on the holo television
Hi master!
Her happy voice jerked him out of his thoughts and he looked at her, sitting down next to her
So, snips anything good on
No not really
She switched it off and curled up next to him, closing her eyes and soon drifting into a peaceful sleep and he swore he heard a soft trilling noise come from her as she slept, he liked it he liked her body heat, just ahsoka being there made him feel good and happy
He gently rubbed her back and the trilling noise became more apparent and louder
His eyes soon began to close as well, drifting off into sleep
()())(()()()(())(((((((((((((((((((((((((()()(()()()()()(()()((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
He ran through the dusty battle field finally coming up on a small body covered in blood, he recognized this figure as… ahsoka
He shouted her name, but she did not stir that much but just a little
Her stomach and side had been sliced by a lightsaber, he kneeled to meet her eyes, but they were glazed over in pain and a large hint of warning almost to tell him to get away before it is too late
Just then a large boot was pressed against her side like some hunters do when they kill the animal they had been hunting, the boot pressed against her bleeding side and she squeaked in pain
Anakin looked up to see a cloaked figure with icy blue eyes that popped out of the dark shadows in the robe, its lightsaber raised as the figure smirked and kicked ahsoka in the process of taking his foot off her
He was overcome by rage and ignited his saber, striking the sith's robe off to reveal ventress
Oh, hello skywalker is this your little togruta pet
The way she said pet made Anakin attack her before she could finish her sentence
Anakin jumped awake on the couch, making the soft trilling noise stop very quickly after ahsoka's head had been moved from his chest
Master what's wrong
Nothing ahsoka, its fine it's just a dream
