Chapter 12: anakin and ahsoka the babysitters.

The hidden rage drops out of hyperspace and switches to using its sails to get into orbit of coruscant obi-wan getting onto the fury and flying it down to the jedi temple hangar bay walking off the ship and being greeted by anakin and ahsoka, "greetings master kenobi" ahsoka says cheerfully anakin giving kenobi a small bow, "how was your mission to mandalore master? And how could you have fun without me?" anakin says his usual grin on his face, obi-wan holds out the je'daii holocron "I am going to the council with this by chance could you two look after nox? I left him to nap on the fury" obi-wan says, "of course master" anakin says walking onto the fury "c'mon snips" anakin says as kenobi walks to the council feeling like something might go wrong.

Anakin and ahsoka board the fury ahsoka walking to the sleeping quarters as anakin flops onto the sofa in the main room, "oh so am i going to have to take care of the baby again?" ahsoka says in her usual cheery tone referencing their first mission together, "well snips i guess i can chip in too" anakin says stretching and sits up, ahsoka walking into the sleeping quarters and almost melts from the cuteness that is nox asleep in a crib then she leaves wanting to give nox a few more minutes, sitting on the sofa across from anakin they decide to watch the holonet anakin wanting to watch some pod racing because he was told the fury had access to that part of the holonet, "master what is your obsession with pod racers?" ahsoka asks, "well snips if you must know i was in a pod race to get myself free so i can go with obi-wan and qui gon to get to be a jedi" anakin says sighing remembering what being a slave was like.

Nox woke up sitting up in his crib rubbing the sleep from his eyes, "daddy?" nox says into the darkness of the sleeping quarters hearing no reply, whimpering a little nox holds his second saber close to his chest, "DADDY?" nox called out again about to cry looking excited when the door is opened but his smile drops when he sees ahsoka standing in the doorway, "hey little guy" ahsoka says scooping up nox "why you here? Where daddy?" nox whined, ahsoka looked confused a jedi was not supposed to have attachments but ahsoka brushed this off after catching anakin with padme once, "daddy is at a meeting with the council so me and uncle ani are going to take care of you" ahsoka said cheerfully bouncing nox up and down in her arms, nox gave out a small chuckle then blushed hating the fact he just acted like a child, "it's alright to be a child you know nox i know the sith forced you to be strong but you don't have to any more" ahsoka says carrying nox into the main room and sits him next to anakin, "what ever jedi" nox says getting the same look ahsoka gives anakin, "guess he is cranky" anakin says picking up nox and sitting him on his knee, nox felt uncomfortable by the gesture he only really liked it when daddy or satine did it, "sky guy put him down he looks uncomfortable" ahsoka says, "true" anakin says sitting nox on the ground then goes and gets nox's toy starfighters from a box, "ah this should entertain him" anakin says giving nox the toys and nox smiles, "see snips i know how to handle kids" anakin says giving a grin.

Nox lifted his two toy starfighters using the force and flies them around the room whilst making zooming noises, nox certainly was amused by what he was doing he knew he shouldn't but he just was, "careful kid don't hit any of us" anakin warns, "i do what i want jedi this is my ship" nox says smiling as he makes the tri-droid toy crash into the sofa and the arc-170 toy land by nox.

A clone trooper knocks on the door ahsoka going to answer it, "good afternoon trooper" ahsoka greets the plain trooper, "good day lady tano the chancellor would like to see anakin" the trooper say, "we are kind of busy we are babysitting for master kenobi" ahsoka replies "no need for him to come to my chambers i can just speak to him here" chancellor palpatine says walking into view, "good day chancellor" ahsoka says and bows "lady tano" palpatine says in return boarding the fury, nox was playing with the toy fighters again this time under anakin's 'recommendations' nox knew this was a fancy term for orders to play like a normal child, "ah anakin good to see you what are you up to?" palpatine says walking into the main room then notices nox, "oh and who is this little bundle here?" palpatine adds ruffling nox's hair, "i don't like this guy" nox thought trying to scan the old man through the force but could find nothing not even a trace of a heartbeat but nox would continue a child like facade, "Oh his name is nox me and ahsoka are babysitting him for obi-wan what do you need chancellor?" anakin says, "well anakin i heard of a thing called a star forge should be somewhere in the lehon system i want you to scout it out" palpatine says nox really not liking the look on palpatine's face it looked like someone performed sith alchemy on him, "of course chancellor" anakin replies and palpatine looks pleased and walks away and off the ship.

"DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT A STAR FORGE IS!" nox yells at anakin, "no and i don't like your tone" anakin replies, "WHO CARES? THAT PIECE OF HUTT CRAP IS A SITH IMPOSTER!" nox continues to yell losing his temper, "woah woah calm down" ahsoka says picking nox up and bouncing the little sith in her arms, anakin gets up and looks nox dead in the eyes "palpatine is a good man he always looked out for me since he first met me" anakin says in a deadpan tone, "didn't you see the lines around his cheek?" nox asks "those are sith alchemy scars", "sith alchemy?" anakin says curious, nox face palmed "what are these jedi teaching their young?" nox thought "Force alchemy was used by the je'daii then early jedi before the birth of the sith empire, once the sith empire got some dark jedi that new the art of force alchemy it became known as sith alchemy" nox explained, "generally force alchemy uses the dark side to manipulate matter and life itself" nox adds scanning anakin's mind without him knowing, "even to save someone you love from death" nox says, at this anakin lit up and calmed down "do you know how to perform force alchemy?" anakin asks, "i do but all i want is to be left alone i do not wish for the sith to return my mission was to either take control of the sith but if i can't do that il destroy them" nox says, "anakin do not go to the star forge me and daddy will go in your place the abilities of force alchemy are not for those raised by the light" nox says "if you go to palpatine's chambers il flood them with dark side energy if his disguise is a disguise it will fall off" nox adds, "and if it is not a disguise?" anakin asks, "then he won't be harmed" nox says plainly.

Obi-wan gets back onto the fury and stands in the doorway having heard the entire conversation, "you are not putting yourself at risk young man" obi-wan says going and picking up nox holding him tightly to his chest, "maul almost killed you and i won't let another sith take you" obi-wan says crying a bit, "daddy no cwy" nox says noticing the lisp hating it he continued "pwease daddy no cwy", obi-wan breaths in and balances himself out still hugging nox he stands "what is a star forge nox?" obi-wan asks, "it's a factory daddy only it uses 1 huge kaiburr crystal and traps a star on the point of nova in a time loop constantly making it explode and repeatedly explode gathering its energy to use as material" nox says, "well then sounds like a adventure" ahsoka says cheerfully.

"Anakin you and ahsoka MUST go to the star forge secure it for us, i am not letting my baby anywhere near a star forge" Kenobi says holding nox close, "as you say master" Anakin replies. Anakin and Ahsoka leave the fury and go to embark on their mission, "so noxy i have some good news" Kenobi says bouncing nox in his arms then rubbing his back, nox looks excited "yea daddy?" nox replies, "we are going to get you some lessons in how to use the light side of the force, you need to balance yourself out not like a jedi but like a je'daii" Kenobi says, "what" nox simply says stunned, "yea well i know how hungry you are for knowledge and i know boys only really learn from practicals i am not converting you to the light i just want you to be able to balance yourself" Kenobi says, nox sighed knowing the dark side was good for attacking and tanking but does not have much in terms of healing, "alright then daddy" nox says.

wooo noxy is going to learn the art of his enemy
