Anakin walks down the hall towards the council room where he told Ahsoka to meet him. The sun was just beginning to set on one of the most hellish days of his life.

'These last few days have been a mess' Anakin mused as he stopped at one of the large windows to think. He let out a sigh and whispered, "It's just too much." He shook his head to clear his mind. He looked out into the city. 'But it's all over now and for that I am thankful.' He took one last good look out the window before turning back around to go to the council room. He picked up his pace so not to be late as he usually was in the past. But as he sped around a corner he collided with a smaller jedi youngling and they both fell down.

"Master Skywalker I am so sorry." The child said. Anakin opened his eyes to see Katooni. He stood up and brushed himself off. "No, I'm sorry Katooni I'm the one that was rushing. There's a council meeting about Ahsoka and I have to meet het there."

Katooni looked confused "But Master Skywalker I just saw Ahsoka heading for the entrance to the Temple. She looked really sad I think she was crying but I can't be sure." Katooni said worriedly.

"Are you sure" He asked quickly.

"mmm hm" she hummed while shaking her head yes.

"Thank you Patawan but I must go." He thanked her quickly then bolted to the temple entrances while silently praying 'Please still be there please still be there.' He ran out the doors to see Ahsoka walking to the steps.

"Ahsoka wait!" He yelled as he ran towards her but she just shook her head and started to walk faster. "Ahsoka I need to talk to you." He pleaded. Final she stopped but she still kept facing away from him. It was quiet. Both were so deep in their own thoughts.

"The council didn't trust me." She struggled out letting a few tears drop.

"I trusted you, I stood by you," Anakin argued. The sun was even lower casting two long shadows on the floor.

"I know you did and I am so, so thankful for that, Anakin. I truly am but I just can't stay here any long…..I just can't." She pleaded while more tears started to fall.

Anakin turned around and looked at the floor. "I know,….more than you realize, I know about wanting to leave the order. I do." He said quietly as his thoughts glanced to his wife.

There was another pause. Never had either of them heard silence so loud, so heavy, so sad. Ahsoka face crunched together in pain. "I know" Her voice was heave as she tried not to sob. She started to walk again leaving Anakin to shocked to move. He stood there frozen watching her leave.

But suddenly something inside him screamed NO. And once again he bolted towards Ahsoka. Right before she could make the first step down he grabbed her arm. Ahsoka shot around and screamed, "WHAT DO YOU WANT!" Anakin was once again too shocked for words. Tears were streaming down both of Ahsokas blood shot eyes. Her face was redder then normal and twisted with an emotion than Anakin had never seen before in his Snips. It was panic pure raw scary panic. She was sobbing now as she made a feeble attempt at trying to free her arm. "I JUST WANT TO LEAVE PLEACE!" She wailed pulling even harder to realize herself but Anakin didn't let go.

"Snips wait." Anakin pleaded but he was cut off by Ahsokas now high pitched panic ridden voice.

"NO. NOOOOO" She screams louder but it came out deformed because of her sobbing. The pore girls' hull body was shaking as she tried even harder to escape. Anakin then accidently loosened his grip on her arm. With another wail she pulled herself free but the force of the escape made her fall down some of the steps.

Anakin rushed over to Ahsoka who wasn't making an effort to get up, she was on her hand and niece crying out so strongly that she was starting to lose her voice. Anakin tried to help her up but when he touched her Ahsoka force pushed him back while screaming "LEAVE ME ALONE!."

"Blasted Ahsoka" he yelled in anger. The girl was back on her feet but she was still shaking like crazy. Ahsoka started to back away slowly she moved her head back and forth slowly as she realized what she had done. She looked at her hands than made a high picked sob mumbling sound.

It was all just too much for her. She grabbed her head because all the stress was making her mind burn.

Anakin got up slowly so not to spook her. "Ahsoka please just calm down." He said slowly and calmly.

"NO!..NO..No!..nooo" She slowly opened her eyes but everything was blurry and all she could see was this big blob coming towards her. She backed away some more. Her mind was having a meltdown and she was unable to proses anything beside the face that she so very disparately needed to escape. So once again she forced pushed Anakin away the best that she could but this time she ran faster then she had ever ran down the rest of the steps and away from her nightmares at the temple before Anakin could get up.

Once he was up Ahsoka was out of sight so Anakin did the only thing he knew to do when a problem was just too big to handle on his own. He turned around and ran back into the temp scream blood murder,

"OBY-WAN!"
