Chapter 5: An Old Friend


Ahsoka read the letter in her head over and over again and still the mere thought of it was impossible, how could Alex have possibly found her. It was too good to be true even by his standereds, no this letter had to be from someone else, Sky maybe? No that wasn't possible either, Ahsoka was pretty sure that Sky did not like her anymore than she liked him. And after all Alex's brother would probably be with Alex.

Unfortunately Ahsoka's theory was proven wrong the moment she stepped inside the tent in which the letter had told her that was the meeting area. At this Missy looked at the tent and said

"Now that's impressive" Missy said and she looked at Ahsoka and smiled "now who do you suppose sent that letter?"

"I don't know" Ahsoka said she then looked at it in her hand, the letter was yellow and looked nothing like Alex's handwriting, although Ahsoka had never seen Alex write anything as neat as this. She looked at the tent and then back at Missy "I tthink whoever wrote this" she held up the letter to Missy "is in here" she then opened the curtains of the tent and walked inside quickly followed by Missy.

The inside of the tent took Ahsoka's breath away, from the outside it looked smaller but in here it was bigger on the inside, a shame really because it reminded her of the TARDIS and how badly she wanted to be with Alex kissing him and taking him by surprise, her happy thoughts were broken by Missy.

"Wow!" Missy said over exaggerating her excitement "I like what you've done with the place!" She looked around at the pile of instruments that were scattered around the place "although you could do a bit of tidying up!" she looked at the person who what his back turned to her.

From what Ahsoka could see the person was tall and had black hair, he was dressed all in black which again reminded her of Alex, black was his colour after all. She dared to hope, but when the person turned round to face her and Missy, Ahsoka's hope faultered and then broke.

The boy facing them looked no older then 15 or 17, he was tall but his hair was more maroon than black, he was wearing black clothes but his clothes came with a sense of well not royalty but more like proper. When Ahsoka saw him, her heart skipped a beat although just for a second.

"I never thought" the boy said looking at Ahsoka in awe "that you got my letter" at this Ahsoka couldn't help but smile and rush to embrace him in a hug.

"You should get better handwriting," at this Missy was completly confused she looked back at Ahsoka and the boy in shock and confusion. "Well" said the boy letting go of Ahsoka "you could've let me know prior to coming here"

"I didn't even know I was coming here" Ahsoka said smiling then she looked at Misys and scowled at her to which Missy looked at Ahsoka and said

"Hang on, hang on" Missy said "will somebody please tell me what the hell is going on?" At this the boy looked at Missy curiously and then back at Ahsoka.

"Oh" said the boy he then walked forward to Missy and took out his hand which Missy took reluctantly, and at this Ahsoka couldn't help but smile, it was quite a long while before she had anything a head of her, "Lux Bonteri." Said the boy and he shook Missy hand "I assume Ahsoka has mentioned me?" At this Missy looked at Ahsoka and gave her a scowl,

"No" Missy said to which Ahsoka became very nervous , she could feel herself blushing slightly, stop it, Ahsoka thought you're with Alex now, or at least I will be when this is all over. Her thoughts were then interrupted when Lux said something that jarred her out of her thoughts

"So" Lux said "word on the holonet is, that you're dating the Avatar" at this Ahsoka became slightly embarrassed, how had the holonet gotten that story?

"I wouldn't call it dating" Missy said smiling "more like" she was interrupted by Ahsoka who gave Missy a glance that looked deadly. Missy shut up almost immeaditly when Ahsoka gave him that look.

"Yes" Ahsoka said smiling although it slightly pained her to tell Lux this "I am dating the Avatar, he does have a name you know" at this Lux smiled and said

"That's fine" he then looked at Ahsoka curiously and Ahsoka wondered for a second if he was hurt "I just don't won't you to get hurt" when Lux looked away Ahsoka turned away awkwardly and Missy smiled when she noticed this

"Oh I know that look" at this Ahsoka completly ignored her and looked at Lux who turned around to look at her, he smiled and said

"It's damn good to see you Ahsoka" at this Ahsoka smiled and then said

"It's good to see you too" although Ahsoka wasn't completly honest with saying that...
