Chapter 1

Anakin needs another distraction. After Ahsoka left, he had been sent to battle and lost. It was clear to the council he needed to take a break and make peace with Ahsoka's decision. After that break he went back to fighting and did a significantly better job.

The council was satisfied with his work, not seeing he hadn't made peace with them. With what we did to her. I saw through his mask. I tried to talk to him but he always changed the subject.

Hopefully this mission will distract him and maybe get him to open up with me. I'm afraid of what he might do to free his frustration with the council.

I arrive at his door and knock softly. "Come in!", he said. I walk inside and take a look at his room. Such a mess.

"Anakin we have a mission", I start. He nods, waiting for me to continue.

"We were informed that the bounty hunter Kyl' would be at a cantina. Last night Saesee Tiin and Quinlan Vos went there and found out that he is going to a space station belonging to a crime lord known as 'Ash'. We are to go to that station and bring Kyl' back for interrogation", I finished.

Anakin looked up at me confused, "I've never heard of Kyl'. Why do we have to chase him specifically?", he asked. That's what I thought when the council told me about the mission.

"Apparently he stole some Separatist plans and is selling them back to the Separatists", I said.

"So if we could get them first, we'd have an advantage in the war", he concluded. "Exactly".

"When do we leave?", asked Anakin. "Tomorrow night", I answered.

I left the room to get myself ready for the trip. Honestly I'm glad the council didn't call him and instead asked me to brief him on the mission. He's not exactly happy to see them everyday.

My past with him made him forgive me easier, even if I still feel guilty. I could've done more, but, what's done is done. She has probably made a life of her own already and we can't just interfere with it.

I made it to my room, well I suppose I should get to packing.
