Hey, guys. I know this story is on a hiatus, but I had an idea for it and I couldn't keep it in anymore. Due to complications with ForceWalker (what that is is none of you Force damn business!), I will be doing this chapter alone. Since Cardek is his character, he won't be in this chapter. Hope you guys still like it.

A few months have gone by since Ahsoka and Cardek got together for the first time. They've had sex numerous time. They were always careful and used protection. Ahsoka loved Cardek and Cardek loved her. There wasn't a force in the galaxy that could tear them apart. Cardek was on a mission with Obi-Wan and Ahsoka was back at the Temple. Needless to say that she was bored without him around. She had wandered around the Temple for nearly an hour looking for something to do until she ran into Anakin.

"Hey, Snips. I've been looking all over for you."

"Well, you found me. What's up?"

"I have a bit of an assignment for you. And before you moan and groan about it, you might actually enjoy it."

"Really? And what would make me enjoy it?"

"Because it involves an old friend of yours who has come onto our side. He's going to be arriving here in a few minutes and I need you to escort him to the Senate building."

"Sure. Who is it, anyway?"

"I'll give you a hint: he's about your age, human, a almost got you killed on Carlac..." It didn't take long for Ahsoka to figure out who it was. There was only one person who almost got her and himself killed on Carlac.

"Lux Bonteri? He's decided to come to the Republic?"

"Yeah. He specially requested you as his Jedi escort. I guess he's very fond of you."

"Well, we're friends, in a matter of speaking. We haven't seen each other in a while. It'll be nice to catch up with him." Anakin smirked deviously.

"Yeah. Just don't get all frivilous with him. You know you're a flirt."

"I am not a flirt. Besides, I'm with Cardek. You know that."

"Just because you're with someone doesn't mean you don't flirt with others."

"Kinda like you do?"

"Hey, I can't help it if I'm a lady's man. That's just good luck, my young Padawan."

"Sure. Should we be heading to the garage to pick up the senator?"

"Oooh, the senator. Trying to sound professional and hide your flirt." She playfully slapped his arm.

"Master..."

"Alright, alright. Let's go." They both headed down to the hangar. Ahsoka was excited to see Lux. She hasn't seen him since Carlac. She was glad to know that he was okay. She was also a little relieved that Cardek wasn't there. She knows how protective and jealous he could get. They made it to the hangar as the ship was landing. The ramp lowered and Lux stepped down. He was wearing a dark blue suit and brown boots. His hair had grown a few inches since last time and he looked that he gained a little muscle. He approached her and Anakin.

"Hello, Master Jedi."

"Hello, Senator Bonteri. I'm Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker. And I believe that you know my Padawan, Ahsoka."

"Of course. How are you, Ahsoka?"

"I'm great. And you?"

"Just fine, thank you." He smiled warmly at her and she couldn't help the blush that creeped across her cheeks and montrals. Anakin smirked at his young Padawan.

"Anyway, Ahsoka, please escort Senator Bonteri to the Senate Building and stay with him until he returns to his apartment. I want you to report straight to me when you return. Got that, Snips?"

"I got it, Skyguy. This isn't my first escort mission, you know."

"I know. I just like to refresh your memory just in case you get side tracked. Again."

"That was one time. When are you ever going to let that go?"

"Never. Now, get going."

"Alright. Come on, Lux. We'll take my speeder." She and Lux went over to her speeder and headed over to the Senate Building.

"So, Ahsoka, what's been going on with you since we last saw each other? Anything life changing and exciting?" She thought back to when she was in the hospital and everything she and Cardek did. She thought about their first time and every time after that. She decided that no one should know about that, especially Lux.

"Nothing really. Just the same thing that usually happens in the life of a teenage Jedi. Life threatening missions, dangerous criminals and Sith. Same old, same old." He chuckled a bit.

"Of course. Same old, same old."

"What about you? Anything new besides you joining the Republic?"

"Not really. Same old for me as well. Hiding from Death Watch, trying to get revenge on Dooku. Nothing new or exiciting." She chuckled back at him.

"Right. So, what's going on today at the Senate Building?"

"I need to meet with the Chancellor about joining the Republic. We need to get everything confirmed."

"So, you're bringing Raxus over to the Republic?"

"No. I'm bringing my home planet of Onderon to the Republic. I know now that my people will be better taken care of with the Republic than they would with the Separatists."

"I'm glad that you realize that. It's going to be great with you on the same side."

"I know. Maybe we'll be able to spend more time together."

"Maybe." Lux stared at Ahsoka for a while. Ahsoka felt this and turned to him. "Is something wrong? Why are you staring at me like that?"

"I'm sorry. I didn't realize I was staring. It's just... Excuse me if this is a bit inappropriate, but you are very beautiful." She felt her cheeks and montrals burn red.

"Well, that is a bit inappropriate for you to say."

"I apologize. I never wanted to make you uncomfortable." Ahsoka couldn't think of anything to say about his comment. Luckily, she didn't have to because they had made it to the Seante Building. She parked and they both got out of the speeder. "Ahsoka, how about we just forget what I said. I don't want things to be weird between us."

"I think that would be best, Lux."

"Okay. Well, I have a meeting with the Chancellor. Can't be late."

"Of course. I'll lead you to his office."

So, Lux is in the picture and he's kinda hitting on Ahsoka. She should be lucky Cardek's not around. I hope you guys still liked this chapter. ForceWalker, if you're reading this, I'm so sorry I changed what we had started on, but I really had to do this chapter. Please don't be mad.
