She snuggled with her teddy bear. She held it tight, until it moved.
Ahsoka jumped out from under her quilt. Yoda was hanging from her ankles.
"Master Yoda!" she cried.
"I'm only finding somewhere to sleep for the night. Mace hit me with a chair." said the green freak.
"A chair?" asked Ahsoka, shaking off the... thing.
"Yessiree. Right in the ear. In fact... could you get it out for me? It's wedged right here..." said Yoda, standing up and pointing down his pointy ear.
"Ew... I... I suppose I could try... but, isn't a chair awfully big to fit into your ear?" asked Ahsoka.
"Trust your instincts." said Yoda.
"Well, my instincts are asleep at the moment!" cried Ahsoka, upset that she got woken up so... oddly.
"Well then..." said Yoda. He grabbed an alarm clock from his pocket and twisted the timer. He stuck it next to Ahsoka's ears. It rang loudly. Ahsoka screamed and covered her ears.
"What was THAT for?" she cried.
"To wake up your instincts! Duh!" said Yoda in a snotty, peppy, girly, high-pitched voice with his hands on his hips.
Ahsoka sighed. "Just stand still. I need to get that... chair... out of your ear." said Ahsoka.
Yoda was dancing, then jumped, and landed as stiff as a tree trunk. He didn't move, blink, or even breathe. Ahsoka bent over his head, and hesitantly put her hand in that creepy left ear. She dug around for moment or two, then cried out. "Ahha!" She pulled out a huge brown reclining rocking chair. She threw it on the ground in pain.
"That's heavy!" she cried.
"Yep! Bye! Thanks!" said Yoda. He skipped out of the room humming, "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star."
Ahsoka ran after him out into the dark living room/dining room/kitchen area, but Yoda was gone.
She sighed, and went back to bed.
In Shaak Ti's Quarters
"Plants, oh, plants, oh plantie dears. I enjoy you company, here. Plants, oh plants, oh plantie dears. I feel so calm, whenever you're near!" sang Shaak Ti. She was in a small, one room quarters. The walls were covered in shelves, the shelves completely covered with pots of all different sizes. Each one held a different plant. There were vines growing on the ceiling, and plants of all kinds hanging from the ceiling fan. Plants, plants, plants! Shaak Ti was dancing around, as if calling to the plants. There was a knock from the left wall.
"Please!" said a strained male voice. "I'm trying to sleeeep!"
"Mace! I'm trying to speak to my plants. They are angry now!" said Shaak Ti.
In Mace's Quarters
Mace lay in his two room quarters. There was a kitchen area in one corner, a dining table and chairs in another, a bed in another, and a couch and television in the corner. It was a calm and peaceful room. Mace lay in the dark under to white comforter on his bed, listening to the muffled voice next door.
"Plants, oh, plants! I love you so! And the grass in my yard, I never shall mow! It shall oooooooveeeer !" cried the muffled voice of Shaak Ti.
Mace began to sob quietly to himself.
In Anakin and Ahsoka's Quarters
Ahsoka tip-toed into Anakin's room, after getting about 30 minutes of sleep since the... outburst.
"Master?" she whispered, as she reached the edge of his bed. "Maaaaaster!" she whispered again, more loudly this time. She poked his nose. She poked it again, but harder. And harder. And harder. And even harder. Anakin rolled over in his sleep.
"Obi-Wan, I thought you got over that habit when I was 12..." said Anakin in his sleep. Ahsoka giggled.
She bent over to his ear. At first she whispered. "Master? Wake up!"Then she yelled. Right. In. His. Ear. Loudly. "MASTER! WAAAAAAAAAAAKE UUUUUUUUUUUP!" Anakin jumped up and stood on his bed, posing as if he was going into battle with a lightsaber. He looked around. He got into a normal stance.
"Oh, hey Ahsoka... Ahsoka? Why did you wake me up? It's-" he paused to look at the digital clock on his bedside table. "10:45 at night!"
"Well, don't you hear that weird crying noise, and that weird singing upstairs?" asked Ahsoka.
"Yeah... just now that you mention it. But, Plo Koon is directly above us. Go check on him." said Anakin.
"Ok. Can I take the short way?" asked Ahsoka.
"Oh... I guess... just be careful."
"Ok. I will." said Ahsoka. Anakin smiled at Ahsoka. She smiled back. She dashed off to her room, and walked out onto the balcony. She looked down at the courtyard 3 stories down. She looked up. She saw the sleek glass balcony of Plo Koon's quarters. She got on top of the railing of her balcony and grabbed onto the trellis hanging next to her. She climbed up, then jumped onto Plo's balcony. She slid open the glass door with her key in her pocket, then walked right in, silently. She tip-toed into Plo Koon's quarters. Plo Koon was sound asleep. But she still heard the two odd noises. She crept closer to the right wall. The crying sound was louder now, much louder. It was definitely coming from next door. But the singing was still muffled. Probably the quarters next to the one next door from Plo to the right. Ahsoka crept out of Plo's quarters and walked into the hallway. She looked over the side of the railing, to see her hallway down below. She backed away, and knocked on the quarters with the crying noise. She couldn't remember who lived here... the door opened. Mace was standing in the doorway, with dark circles underneath his eyes. He looked defeated. He was wearing pajamas, which were wrinkled.
"Hello, Ahsoka. Can I help you at this late hour?" asked Mace, obviously cranky.
"Actually, I was just wondering if you were crying. If you were... what is singing? Or... who is singing?" asked Ahsoka.
"Oh... yes, Padawan. I was crying. And Shaak Ti is the one singing. She's 'speaking' to her angry plants." said Mace.
"To her plants?" asked Ahsoka.
"Yes. Just... get some ear plugs or something." said Mace. Ahsoka grabbed a fishing pole from underneath her lekku.
"Do you keep tons of stuff under there?" asked Mace.
"Nah. Just my emergency fishing pole." said Ahsoka.
"Well, why'd you get it out?" asked Mace.
"To fish! Duh!" said Ahsoka, rolling her eyes.
"But..." said Mace. But Ahsoka had already cast her line over the railing that formed a rectangle in the middle of the outer rectangle of hallways. She began to reel something in. She swung the fishing pole over her shoulder.
"Here are two pairs of ear plugs, Master Windu!" said Ahsoka, taking off four squishy foam ear pieces. She took off two. She handed them to the confused Jedi.
"But...how..." stuttered Mace. But Ahsoka pushed him into his quarters, waved goodbye, smiled sweetly, and slammed the door in his face. She jumped over the railing, landed in front of her door, and went inside. She found her Master asleep on the couch. She woke him up.
"Oh, Snips, did you find out the mysterious noise?" asked Anakin, propping himself up on his elbows.
"Yeah! Mace was crying because Shaak was singing to her angry plants." said Ahsoka casually, sitting down next do her Master.
"Er...what?" asked Anakin.
"Never mind." said Ahsoka. Anakin nodded.
"Get to bed, Snips." said Anakin, patting her on the back. They smiled at eachother. Ahsoka nodded. She hugged her master goodnight.
"Night." she said.
"Goodnight, Snips." he said. He looked around, making sure no other Jedi was looking because of the attachment rule, and whispered, "Love you!"
Ahsoka whispered back, "Love you too! As family." she said. That was what they always did. They both laughed.
"As family." said Anakin, nodding. Ahsoka walked off, and went to her room. She slid into bed.
Anakin went to his room as well, and went to sleep. He was just drifting off to the lullaby sang by Shaak upstairs when he heard Ahsoka scream.
A/N: How do you guys like it so far? In story form, anyway. :) R&R! :D I'd also like to give credit to Bluesaber3 for the idea of putting the last couple lines in the previous chapter in italics at the beginning of the chapter, as she did in AnotSoNormalWeek series.
Bluesaber3-if you don't like me doing the "last few lines from the previous chapter in italics at beginning of chapter" thing in my story, just tell me!:) I will stop immediately if you wish. If you say it's fine, thanks so much!
P.S. To Readers: If you do the same thing Bluesaber3 does to her stories, the italics thingy, please let me know. I'm probably over reacting. But, I just don't want any trouble. I'm sure Bluesaber3 wouldn't cause any trouble... she seems so nice. But I don't know anyone else that might do the italics thing, and they might get mad. So, just let me know! :)
