A New Chapter

Chapter Three

Anakin Skywalker POV

It's been three days since Senator Chuchi told me of Lux Bonteri's whereabouts. I had to get permission to leave, now is not a time I want to be yelled at by Master Windu. Right before I got ready to leave in my Starfighter, Obi-Wan totally ruined the Twilight on Mandalore…we found out Barriss had escaped the authority's. She is somewhere on Coruscant. Luckily I'm on retreat or else I know I would have to help search for her. I'm oust now getting ready to leave. My Starfighter had to be searched for anything useful. I'm just happy to finally get to leave.

Ahsoka Tano POV

Lux has decided to take me to explore Onderon. As we walk through Iziz I can't help but to notice all of the happy couples. I could be in one now. I could be one of those people. Without even thinking about it, I grasp Lux's hand, holding it tightly. I sense his surprise but it quickly disappears and soon he's holding onto my hand just as tightly. I also sense that he now enjoys it. I smile just at the thought. Maybe there's a hope for me and Lux. Just maybe.

Barriss Offee POV

I didn't realize that it was so easy to evade authorities. All it took was to hide inside a storage container, well after I got out of my cell. I am just getting into the atmosphere while in a stolen cruiser. I know where to go however, Onderon. It was out of the way and nobody would suspect it. I sense something, something very faint but on Onderon. Perhaps it's a force sensitive child, then I can save it from the Jedi. But I must act fast, as far as I know there could be Republic forces headed there. I was going to go to Mandalore, but that Darth Maul is there, it's not a safe place currently. And I wasn't stupid, I was going to stay unnoticed. At least I hoped to.

Lux Bonteri POV

I continue to hold onto Ahsoka's hand as we walk around Iziz. People stare and whisper, but I don't mind that much. But I do pick up my pace for Ahsoka's sake. We were just looking around, I would point at important landmarks and such. As we pass by a clothing store a thought hits me, all Ahsoka has is her normal Jedi gear. If she had her own wardrobe, she would blend in more. As we approach another store advertising clothes, I stop. Ahsoka turns to me and raises an eyemarking. "Come on, let's look in here. It will help you blend in if you have some new clothes." Ahsoka looks inside the store and although she hesitates, she does follow me inside.
