A Word from the Author: Hello everyone, it's jediclonecowgirl, with the ninth chapter of "Anakin's little sister". In this chapter Anakin's finding out about the capture of his wife and children. Let's get it started.
Ahsoka was back at the Skywalker homestead. She definatly hoped Anakin was not there, but he was. He was sitting on a chair in the small living room.
"How was it?", Anakin asked.
"How was what?", Ahsoka asked back.
"I know, that you were at Obi-Wan's place. You were catching up on the last 4 years eh?", Anakin asked.
"It's been a really long day Anakin. I'm off to bed I am tierd.", Ahsoka said.
"Alrighty...good night Snips.", Anakin said.
"Night Skyguy!", she replied, before she left for the small bedroom and fell onto her bed.
How could this be so hard? Ahsoka feared Anakin's reaction, if he found out about Padmé and the kids, but she knew, if she did not tell him, he would get more worried or get his hopes up, that Padmé and the kids would get back soon. Ahsoka changed into sleep clothes, crawled under the covers, pulled the blanket over her head and began to cry. This was really the first time, she had ever feared her master's reaction about something. Well...actually it was the second time. The first time was in the battle for Ryloth back in the Clone Wars and that was long ago. Suddenly she heared footsteps approaching. Since her former master was the only other person around here, she pretended to be asleep already. She heared her master changing and made a decision. She was going to tell her master about the capture tomorrow, before he was going to find it out onto the holo-net. If he found it out the second way, his reaction would probably be way worse.

Ahsoka's eyes flew open. The suns were just rising above Tatooine. She saw, that Anakin was also up already. Hopefully he had NOT gone onto the holo-net already, because then it would've been too late. She did not bother to get changed. She just raced down to the living room. There was Anakin sitting on the small chair, he had sat on the last evening, but now he had his face burried into his hands and he was trembling. It was too late for Ahsoka to tell him. Anakin had found out already.
"Ahsoka...why didn't you tell me?!", Anakin half-asked and half-yelled.
"I...didn't...and I...", Ahsoka stuttered, since she wasn't able to put a clear sentence together.
"I...thought we could tell each other everything...and that without fearing the reaction of one another! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME, THAT THEY WERE CAPTURED?!", Anakin yelled.
Ahsoka took a step backwards. This was excatly what she had feared. That he would excatly act this way.
"Why did I NOT TELL HIM LAST EVENING?! I am so DIM-WITTED! I proably could've prevented this, if I had opened my mouth earlier. I already sould've told him, as I found the report onto the holo-net!", Ahsoka thought.
"I feared your reaction.", Ahsoka mumbled.
"I need to find out, where they're hold captive. I need to save them!", Anakin said and jumped to his feet, but Ahsoka grabbed him by his shoulder.
"You can't just search the whole galaxy for them blindly. You'll be blasted outta the sky by the Imps, before you find something out. We'll plan and pull this off together. Just like we always do.", Ahsoka said.
"We?", Anakin asked.
"Do you really think I would let you head out there alone?", Ahsoka asked.
"Gosh...what was I thinking?", Anakin asked back mockingly.
"Sorry for yelling at you like this by the way Snips.", Anakin whispered then.
"No biggie.", Ahsoka replied.
"I hate it, when you act like this though.", she mentally added, but she WOULDN'T let Anakin know this.
Ending Word: So...I hoped I could fulfill your expectations on, what would happen, when Anakin found out, that his wife and children were captured. I hope you like the story so far and I want to thank you for reading and reviewing. I hope you also leave some reviews behind, before you launch yourselves into the next adventure. Now all I have left to say is bye, bye aaaaannnndddd...
may the force be with you.
