Waking up to a Whole New World…
2 Hours Later
At first, Anakin opened his eyes but still he felt very sick and light headed. "Have I been knocked out?" he thought to himself "How weird, I remember I was running with these girls and then everything went blank. Mhhh? Maybe I lost consciousness after that attack".
After blinking a few times he bolted up in surprised, he was about to call out loud surprise when he noticed a stranger looking at him, holding him down with surprising strength, the room he was in was very dark.
The stranger was not the ones from last night "Wh…Who a…are you?" he asked in a very worried voice, and cursed under his breath for his own weakness when he heard the knock at the door across the room, he tried to sit up again only to find the person that were holding him lessen their grip, and he relaxed somewhat.
He also felt that he was shaking visibly. 'Deep breaths. just calm down, I'll be fine'
The stranger headed to the door as another two knocks came.
The door swung open and entered was one of them girls from last night, a cheery grin on her face.
A figure stood hidden behind her, and the guy who opened the door quickly greeted them.
Buffy stepped out of the way and introduced the figure; he looked fairly muscular, as if he worked hard all day long, his golden blond hair fall in smoothly across his head, Buffy smiled at Anakin, but he didn't pay attention to her, he was to busy scanning Spike with deep blue eyes suspicion growing inside of him.
Anakin knew for certain that he was no longer on Naboo, but then, which planet was he on?
Anakin looked at the girl who saved him from the creatures, her smile quickly faded as she looked deep into his eyes, their gazed holding for a split second, Spike saw this and gave an mutter under his breath; Buffy looked upon his troubled face, and her beautiful features slide into a frown.
Anakin's head was clear enough for him to take in his surroundings, there was a coffee table and some chairs, it didn't look much different from his and Obi Won apartment at the Jedi temple.
Meanwhile Giles who was standing a few feet back looking amazed, said "Don't be afraid, I'm Rupert Giles. I can assure you that you are in safe hands" But Anakin just trembled, and this is points to the figure behind Buffy Spike, and you have already met Buffy, now listen, we would like you to stay here until we figure out what going on, can you understand me?"
Anakin rolled his eyes and said "of course I can hear you, I am not deaf"
Two pairs of friendly eyes fixed on him and Anakin suddenly felt at home for the first time since he had left his mother on Tatooine, even if he didn't know who these people were he sensed he could trust them,
"Well, what do you want to know?" Anakin said as Giles come and kneeled down beside the couch.
"How about…Who are you?" Spike blurted out in an uncharacteristic moment of forwardness. "I mean…Who are you really?"
Anakin leant back with a thoughtful expression, the rational part of his brain argued that he couldn't tell them the truth, they wouldn't even believe it! Would they?
He studied Spike and Giles faces and took in their friendly eyes trustful eyes.
A cocky grin found its way onto his face as he made his decision. "Better make yourselves comfortable" Anakin said.
As Anakin finished his story, Giles lent back with a thoughtful look on his face, "can you tell me anything else"
"I can't, it's like part of my memory had been blocked out from current times before I arrived here" replied Anakin rubbing his head in frustration.
Giles nodded and taking off his glasses he turned to Spike and gesture him towards the door, Anakin following him with his eyes.
Anakin looked up when Buffy come back into the room, not dropping his gaze, they bored into each others challenging, Giles watched silently.
"Hello there" said Buffy and gave Anakin a rather childish grin
"So you are the man I saved" she asked, flipping a light on cautiously.
It was extremely bright. Anakin blinked once, his eyes adjusting to the light, and as his vision cleared, he found the woman standing in front of him.
Although she wasn't wearing something like he was used to--anything like he'd ever seen before, she was astoundingly beautiful.
He bowed his head in respect, "welcome to Sunnydale, the place were all nightmares come true" she said, smiling a cheerful grin.
She was funny, not serious like Obi-Wan. Anakin couldn't help but like her, even begin to admire her, though such things were forbidden.
"Since you are here, you might as well make your self comfortable, we will settle you in the spare guest room till we figure out what happened and how you got here" said Buffy who waved her hand for him to follow her.
Anakin cleared his throat, looking uncomfortable when he found everyone was staring at him again, "Who can say no to an offer like that?" Anakin replied, glad to escape the room." So let me show you your room." Buffy said walking up some stairs, he followed her up some stairs into a hall way, Anakin looked around dazed, everything was so different, and it was weird.
Would have stopped there but I wont update for ages so might as well keep going
"That's my room, Dawn who is my sister is next door and Willow and Tara's bedroom is down at the end." Buffy gestured to the doors.
"This one will be yours." She stopped in front of the guest room, stepping aside so that Anakin can have a look.
"Bathrooms the last door at the end of the hall." Buffy added opening the hall closet. "Here's some clean towels and clothes, if you need anything else just ask."
"Thanks" replied Anakin, stepping into the room, looking around as the door closed again.
He turned his attention to the clothes, thinking about what limb goes in what hole, they sure don't have clothes at the Jedi temple.
While Anakin thought about this odd problem, a knock came at the door.
It had already been one hour, when you are concentrating on things you sure lose track of time.
Anakin shook his head, hoping for the best. He was pretty sure that it might be a while before he was going to get home, the person knocked again, a little more annoyed. "I'm coming, give me a second!" Anakin exclaimed, picking himself off the bed.
As he opened the door, a girl stood there grinning at him, "Hi, I'm Dawn.
" so I heard you are now stuck here, and you look the same size, so I need you to borrow some of Spike clothes until...well, until we can get you some of your own, don't now how long you be here for, might as well get someone to take you shopping, nothing to fancy since we are having money problems" Dawn said.
"Shopping, for what?"
Dawn rolled her eyes. "I don't know, jeans, t-shirt-"
"But I got clothes, These are fine aren't they?" Anakin asked flatly.
Dawn looked at his Jedi robes and shook her head, Anakin began to argue looking taken back, but she held up a hand. "People will think you are weird, if you wear your Jedi robes when you go out or if they stop by, No one wears anything quite like that. Not around Sunnydale anyway" said Dawn.
She moved over to the closet door opening it and sticking her head in, looking like she was looking for something, what ever it was she didn't find it, When she'd shut the closet doors and moved towards the exit, Anakin finally chose to speak. "I guess I won't be going home for a while?"
Dawn shook her head. "Nope. Sorry, Giles is already looking through his books"
Do you know why I am here then?
""I don't know." Dawn replied honestly. There were no words of advice or hope she could offer to the miserable young man.
"Well..." Dawn finally said, "Goodnight, Anakin, " and she shut the door behind herself.
A Few Hours Later:
It was near midnight and Buffy has found it impossible to sleep, a nightmare had woken he u and with ten times of counting sheep she gave up.
She find herself at Anakin room, she didn't know what bought her here, but she felt she knew that he was asleep but still she found herself there.
Then she saw him, Anakin was laying on the bed dressed in pajamas that Xander let him borrow, sleep pants and a black shirt that was unbuttoned down the middle.
She looked at his handsome features while he lay on the bed, looking peaceful and calm, Buffy had known him for 6 hours and already his blue ocean eyes had captivated her because of their intensity.
He mumbled something in his dreams, and rolled over until he was facing the wall,
Anakin lifted his head from his pillow and slowly opened his eyes, blinking as they adjusted themselves to the soft light coming from a torch on the table next to the bed. Even as he slept, he had felt someone presence as she or he had quietly entered the room and placed it there. But something was different, had alarmed him; he sensed that she or he was worried, unsure, even frightened.
He looked around but the room was bare all there was, was, a torch on the side table, lifting one hand he clicked it off and went back to sleep.
To be continued… sorry it was so short but I couldn't think of anything to write, 4 reviews please.
