"That was the stupidest idea to try to take an old Sith planet" complained Ahsoka. "Snips it was worth an attempt to take the planet was it not?" asked Anakin.

Meanwhile on Couriscant Anakin's secret lover Barriss Offee was eagerly awaiting his return. She was so absorbed in thought that she did not hear Jedi Master Plo Koon stride up beside her. "Good day to you padawan Offee" said Master Plo. "Oh...good morning master"said Barriss startled. "You look stressed padawan. Is there anything on your mind that is troubling you?" he asked her. "No master, nothing that I can think of."said Barriss lying. She had been thinking of her lover. Wondering if he was alright. Wondering when he would come home. Wondering when she could enjoy his warm embrace and his soft lips to her's. She had also been trying to keep their love secret from the Jedi Order and even worse her best friend Ahsoka. "Barriss if something is troubling you all you have to do is say something. Oh and by the way padawan."Plo said. "Yes master?" Barriss asked. "I know that you are a pro attachment Jedi. It is not hard to tell the you and young Skywalker are lovers." Plo said. "Are you going to..." "Your secret is safe with me young one." said Plo cutting her off. "Oh thank you master Plo!" said Barriss. "Now come padawan, join me for some breakfast."Plo said. "I would be delighted to join you master."said Barriss. Her heart longed for a nice deep kiss from Anakin when he returned.

Back on the Resolute Ahsoka and Sergent Denal were having a bite to eat. " Commander you act like you haven't eaten in days." said Denal. "Thats because I haven't eaten in days. Four days to be exact Sergent."Ahsoka explained. "Oh I had no idea of that ma'am."said Denal. "Oh I didn't mind it one bit."said Ahsoka. To Denal Ahsoka seemed to be quite attractive for a fourteen year old Togruta. He knew it was wrong but he didn't care and was in love with his Commanding Officer. Ahsoka also thought that Denal was handsome for a clone, even if he was twenty and she was fourteen she felt a special connection between them. The next thing she knew she and Denal were in her quarters kissing each other without a care in the world. Ahsoka felt light headed because she had never felt love to be so sweet to her. The two had gone over the deep end having fallen in love. Ahsoka woke up the next morning with Denals' warm body laying next to hers. She was in a state of happiness which she was not used to. She had found her soul mate and was not about to let him slip out of her fingers right now.
