Hello y'all! How are you? I am so sorry that I have not been regularly updating. I have been studying for the last exams for this year, so it's been really hectic. I haven't even sat the exams yet! I have had to make time to draft some of the next chapters, but didn't get a lot done. This means that the next few uploads may be a while. Again, my apologies! Hang in there, more chapters are coming!

Chapter 6 – Hello Again!

2 days later

Two days after Ventress ambushed Ahsoka and Lux, they arrived in Tattoine. They had stopped in the Naboo system to cover their tracks and so far, it had worked.

"Here we are… Tattoine…," Lux sounded on edge. Everyone sounded on edge now days.

"Master Skywalker–I mean, Anakin, he lived here, on Tattoine," Ahsoka had another vision/dream which had resulted in her, once again, waking up and screaming. It was about Anakin at a younger age, about the same as she was. Ahsoka presumed it was him as he had been called Ani and he had the same personality traits, only much more perceivable. He had freed his mother, only to have her die in his arms a short while later. She had then witnessed something she had never thought her master would have done. He massacred all of the Tusken Raiders. She had never thought that her master would ever stoop that low…

Her connection to her former master was so strong that every time she woke up, she was always cold and had a foreboding feeling. It was the sign of Sith emotions clouding her. Despite all of this, Ahsoka swore that she would call him Anakin Skywalker. Never would she call him Darth Vader. She swore it on the Force and on her life.

"Hey, just out of curiosity, why did you want to come to this desolate planet, Ahsoka?"

"The Force called me here, Lux. I don't know why, but it did."

"I trust your judgment,"

"You do?" Ahsoka asked, surprised.

"Always," Lux stated, looking her in the eyes. Ahsoka felt her face growing warm, so she looked away and focused on them heading towards the sand planet. Though she liked Lux (a lot), she didn't want to become too close to him. It would break her, especially if something happened and went wrong, as it usually did.

When they landed, Ahsoka jumped in her seat, as though she had been electrocuted. There was a presence which she hadn't felt in a long time, a very long time. She clutched the edges of her seat.

"Ahsoka?" Lux questioned her.

"Nothing…Force…Familiar…" she cast it aside. Stress usually made her feel jumpy and on edge.

"OK…So, should we start in the center of town? We're going to need more food, things for the ship, medical supplies–Ahsoka?" Lux looked at her worriedly. Ahsoka had stood up, made a move for her lightsabers and her cloak. She shook her head in disbelief.

"It has to be!" Ahsoka knew the presence and she knew that it was someone whom she had known on Coruscant. She made her way to the entrance of the ship.

"Ahsoka? Ahsoka! Where are you–?" Ahsoka didn't hear what Lux had to say because she was already off the ship.

She ran along the dusty streets of the city, following the presence which she had felt in the Force. Lux was running behind her, calling her name and trying to keep up with her. They had agreed on calling each other by fake names to prevent any unwanted attention.

Ahsoka was intent on finding the person. The Force had led her to Tattoine for a reason, and this had to be the reason, wasn't it? To find this Force-sensitive person. Ahsoka turned into a side street (what was it with her trying to find people in side streets?) and slowed down. The person was here. Ahsoka knew this person, she knew him very well. But, No–it couldn't be, could it? He should have died in Order 66, he had to.

The figure who she was eyeing turned around.

Ahsoka nearly collapsed on the spot.

"M–M–Master? Master Kenobi?" She hadn't seen him in over a year but Ahsoka could have sworn that he'd aged almost five years in the short span of time.

"It's been a while, Ahsoka," Obi-wan chuckled softly, "It's been a while…"


"Ventress!?" Obi-wan exclaimed, "She hasn't exactly been the best person to be around, especially with you concerned."

"Tell me about it," Lux said under his breath, rolling his eyes.

"Hey! I would have died without her," Ahsoka defended Ventress (even if she was a backstabbing piece of Bantha Fodder).

"Apart from the fact that she almost killed you two days ago," Lux said pointedly, quirking his eyebrows at her.

"I wasn't concentrating prop–," Ahsoka shot back in a huff only to be interrupted by him.

"And we almost forget to mention that you were hanging around with her for, ohh six months, give or take a bit?" By this stage, Lux had a mischievous grin on his face that only made Ahsoka scowl.

"Ahh…" Obi-wan said knowingly, "Ahsoka, you know that attachments are–,"

"Master" Ahsoka said wryly and annoyedly, "As you know full well I'm not a Jedi anymore. I mean, it's not like I–," she paused, knowing that her cheeks were bright red. Obi-wan rolled his eyes at her, not taking note of her reaction. Ahsoka scowled even more.

"That's not why we're here," Lux quickly filled in for her. His face was flushed pink, but he continued on, trying hard to draw the attention away from it. "Ahsoka said something about the Force drawing her towards this dust planet. Something in the Force leading her to you," The mood in the room became sombre.

After a while, Obi-wan spoke, his voice quiet and depressed.

"Then I suppose you know about Anakin," He sighed, shutting his eyes.
