The lightsaber training classroom was filled with Jedi younglings, all of them clutching a lightsaber each, chattering excitedly and anticipating the start of the lesson.

Ahsoka watched the room quietly from the door, surveying the entire scene and recognising all the initiates from the small group she had mentored.

Katooni was chastising Petro about something, her hands planted on her hips. Petro ignored her and was examining the hilt of his lightsaber instead.

Ganodi could be seen trying to teach Gungi some Basic phrases (' No, say " Hello, nice to meet you", repeat after me please- ' ' Arrrwh ryuuui haaaaar!' ) while Zatt and Byph just stood there, watching the conversation interestedly.

' Good morning, class,' Luminara cleared her throat. ' Assemble before me with your lightsabers.'

All of them dropped whatever they were doing, and gathered around the Jedi Master, faces shining with excitement. Boy, how much they loved lightsaber classes.

' Good morning Master Unduli,' the kids chirruped cheerfully.

' Good morning, Good morning,' Luminara smiled down at them. ' Nice to see you all again.'

Petro's hand shot into the air, ' Master Unduli, are we going to practice basic Soresu today? I really want to perfect this style.'

' No way, man,' Byph said. ' I want to practice Shien.'

The room bursted into commotion, as each of them argued about what fighting form to practice.

' Quiet, class,' Luminara said. ' We will decide that for later... Meanwhile, I have a surprise for all of you. I'm sure you will like it very much.'

Ahsoka stepped out to the light from behind Luminara and gave the younglings a light-hearted wave, ' Hello.'

Each and every single one of them gasped. Katooni's eyes widened to the size of saucers, and Gungi dropped his lightsaber in surprise.

' Oh, come on. I do not bite,' Ahsoka said lightly, holding out her arms.

The younglings ran forward and crowded around her, screaming in delight and basically making excited questions.

' Oh holy, where were you this whole year?' Katooni complained. ' Why did you leave without saying a goodbye to us all?'

' Hey, we missed you so much! Master Yoda said you were gone! Where have you been? Are these your new lightsabers? What happened anyways? Why are you back? To visit us?' Byph asked all at once.

' Holy Force, you changed so much, I mean,' Petro gestured to Ahsoka. ' You have grown so much taller! I feel like a midget!'

Gungi said in Wookiespeak, and Ahsoka could understand that he meant, ' We all missed you so much! Why did you leave?'

If Luminara hadn't interfered, Ahsoka would be drowning from all the questions they posed on her. ' Initiates, we can't corner Ahsoka like this, can we?' Luminara calmed the children down. ' To answer all of your questions, yes, Byph, Ahsoka is here to visit us for about a week or so. She will be going back to her home planet afterwards.'

' Awwwww!' Katooni complained.

Petro patted his friend gingerly on her back, ' That is okay, Ahsoka. But we will have to make sure these few days are fun and interesting, so we can have fond memories. Is that right, Master Unduli?'

Luminara smiled, ' Yes, indeed, Petro. Let's not tarry any further, Ahsoka, can you be my assistant? We'll be practicing lightsaber forms of your own choice. Class, ignite your lightsabers and spread out, so no one will be injured.'

Snaps and hisses filled the room as everyone ignited their own lightsaber. But they collectively gasped when they saw the colour of Ahsoka's lightsaber, which was silver.

' A silver lightsaber... Interesting,' Luminara said in awe. ' I have never seen silver kyber crystals before.'

' Ahsoka, I thought your lightsaber was green,' Katooni pointed out. ' I remember you have a shotosaber, but according to my memory, it was yellowish green.'

' I lost both of them during my run,' Ahsoka said. ' So I built new ones at Illum to protect myself, who knows if Grievous will be after me?'

The younglings shuddered at the thought of the Separatist General.

' Enough of chit-chat, we must get on with our lesson,' Luminara said. ' Go on, swing your lightsaber for me.'

They spent the entire hour correcting the grips of the younglings and giving them professional opinions. Ahsoka was pleased that they had progressed so much the last time she saw them. Katooni was very good at Ataru. All of them were pretty much eligible fighters and suitable candidates for the Padawan positions. She would have loved to take any of them as her Padawan if she had stayed to become a Jedi Knight.

However, Ahsoka couldn't help but shiver inwardly at the thought that all would be lost at Order 66...

Anakin pretty much woke up late. Like, very late. Obi-wan wasn't here to chase him out of his quarters or whack him out bed as he usually did during missions (usually involving Rex or Cody as well).

He sat up groggily in his bed, his brain restarting and yesterday's events rushed back into his mind.

Ahsoka.

He ran out of his room and went to check the bedroom next-door. It was empty.

A sense of dread filled his heart. It was all a dream, wasn't it? As if Ahsoka would come back, he told himself dejectedly. He ruffled his messy hair and stumbled into the living room, when he found a hastily-written note taped to the corner of the dining table.

Hey there Skyguy,

Out for a walk. Gonna be back later. See ya!

Ahsoka :)

Relief flooded through him. Thank goodness. It wasn't a dream. He reached out throughout the Force and found Ahsoka's presence amongst... Jedi younglings?

There was only one place she could be at. Anakin went hastily to the refresher to change and ran out.

Apparently Kanan felt like Ezra was so worn out after the disastrous language lesson, so he decided to bring him to one of the places he liked best to hang out when he was a kid. The Jedi hangar bays.

The open space and the large view that looked out to the skyline of the Coruscant calmed him. He had no idea why, but he really liked the vast space of the busy city.

' We are going somewhere. One of the favourite places of mine, the hangar bays,' Kanan explained, leading Ezra towards the tower.

Ezra repeated, ' Hangar bays?'

' Yeah, where the Jedi dock all their fighters and speeders. I think it is big enough to hold at least a hundred ships the size of the Ghost. And there is this large window thing that can let you look out to the entire skyline of Coruscant. Believe me, it is really beautiful,' Kanan smiled.

Ezra did the math in his head. A hundred Ghost ships. Wow. ' That must be huge.'

' Of course, like, really huge. Look, here it is.'

Ezra forgot how to breath. It was a giant- No, giant wasn't enough to describe the room in front of him. Rows upon rows of planes were parked, and astromech droids were whirring around them, repairing damages. Some Jedi preferred to fix their own fighters, so a few could be seen lying under their fighters, faces smeared with grease and hands busy with work.

Right at the far end, was a large opening on the wall where the fighters would leave through. Through that, Ezra could see the entire skyline of Coruscant. Kanan was right. It was beautiful.

He had never seen so many speeders or ships in the sky at the same time, encircling buildings like a dance. Thousands upon thousands of skyscrapers stood proudly amongst each other, the exterior catching the light from the sky, gleaming like shards of diamonds.

' Told you. Whenever I am in a bad mood, I come here to sulk. And my mood will be improved,' Kanan chuckled. ' And-'

His voice faltered. Ezra followed his line of sight, and found himself looking at a ship close by. It seems like Caleb had finished his lightsaber lesson, because his Master and him were standing next it. And Depa Billaba was talking quickly to a red-armoured clone commander, while Caleb toyed around with his lightsaber. The commander nodded and walked away.

' A clone,' Kanan said murderously, clenching his jaw so hard that Ezra was sure that his teeth were cracking under all the pressure. His fingers were hovering over his lightsaber, threatening to ignite it.

Ezra put a hand on Kanan's arm. He understood Kanan's displeasure and disgust at the clones, but hey. They were clones after all. As soldiers they were designed to follow orders. And he remembered Ahsoka telling him about some clone commanders she had worked with the other day... The one called... Rex? He didn't participate in Order 66.

' Kanan, they are just clones. They have done nothing yet,' Ezra coaxed.

' Nothing?' Kanan snapped. ' But oh yeah, they will in the future, so that basically is the same.'

' Ahsoka did say some didn't participate in Order 66, so not all of them are bad. Like, you can't generalise them as bad guys.'

' You don't understand, Ezra. You weren't there in person, but I was there to witness their ultimate betrayal. We trusted them so much, treated them like brother in arms, fought side by side in countless wars. But they turned their backs against us and killed my Master without a second thought. She trusted them so much and they killed her.'

Ezra bit his lip, ' I understand well, Kanan. But... It hasn't happened yet in this timeline. It just isn't fair to hate them for something that is inevitable. They are just tools used by the Empire to destroy the Jedi. It is really the Empire's fault.'

Kanan stomped away without a second thought, leaving Ezra behind. Ezra sighed. It would be so hard to convince Kanan that the clones weren't all bad. Maybe it would work with a little help from Ahsoka's optimism. Maybe.

Heeeeeeellllloooooo! I am still alive! :DDD (now very long AN ahead, so if you don't have time to read or are too annoyed to read, skip it :P )

Yes, exams are coming and I have my first day of exam on Thursday... Starring English Language and Science (which consists of Physics, Chemistry and Biology in one single paper). Let's hope that I won't die because I had a hard time memorising all the stuff about metabolism. As for English Grammar... I have absolutely no idea how to revise. My friends are saying, ' We are revising for English Grammar everyday!' and I was like,' Huh? How on earth am I going to revise for that?' So yeah, I am still figuring how to revise for English Grammar (though I rely purely on my instincts). Any ideas? *laugh-cry face*

Now allow me to fangirl for a few moments to de-stress: HAVE YOU GUYS SEEN THE SNEAK-PEAKS FOR THE COMING EPISODE FOR STAR WARS REBELS, LIKE FUTURE OF THE FORCE? IT IS SO AWESOME, MAN! THERE IS GONNA BE SO MANY ACTION, AND MORE LIGHTSABER DUELLING WHOOOHOOOOO!

Buuuuuut...

Calm down, Happy Doodle. You will be writing your exam paper when it comes out. *starts crying and screaming in agony at my classmate that she thought I was going mad* That was the conversation between she and I:

Me: WHAAAAAAT!?

Friend: What the what? What is going on?

Me: noooooooooooooooo the latest episode is going to come out on the first day of exam! WHHHHHHHY! WHHY?

Friend: ... You are taking a TV show too seriously.

Me: It is not just a TV show! It is part of my life! :O

Friend: Uhhhhh fiiiine. I'll leave you here for now.

Okay. This is the end of the seemingly endless AN. Next chapter will hopefully be out by this weekend. Stay tuned and thanks for your support :)
