SORRY guys! I got a new computer at Christmas, so we got rid of our old one that kept breaking down. BUT my new computer didn't come with any typing programs. So we had to order one, which just came in today. So now I should definitely be updating loads more. HUZZAH! ;) Anyway, I suppose we'll just have a late winter/holiday special! =)

Last time on R.B.H. I ended with a blank slate to start a new adventure! *Insert Evil Chuckle Here* (Also Cody is in love with a jittery librarian.)

Chapter 25 of Randomness But Happiness

Yoda yawned and stretched as he awoke. He blinked twice and smacked his lips. He glanced around. He was sitting against a corner in a very dark room, apparently alone. His eyesight was blurry and hazy, considering he had just awoken. But he suddenly became alert as footsteps and laughter echoed from faraway.

A single line of light stood a few feet from Yoda. It ran straight along what Yoda supposed must be a wall, and then turned on a sharp corner and continued along what Yoda thought must be the floor. It began to slowly shrink as a pool of light slowly took its place. Then the new light flooded the front of the room, and Obi-Wan stood in the doorway, looking into the hall beyond.

"Heh heh, okay, thanks for the ride, Artie." he said casually to someone standing beyond where Yoda could see. As Obi-Wan closed the door behind him, closing off the light, he flicked on a switch beside the door. The room was now fully lit, and Obi-Wan now saw the green thing in the corner of his quarters. He screamed. Yoda screamed.

15 minutes later...Yoda and Obi-Wan were still screaming. Finally, Obi-Wan took a long breath, followed by Yoda. Obi-Wan looked at Yoda.

"What are you doing in my quarters?" he cried.

"Sleeping, duh." Said Yoda in an annoying voice. Obi-Wan rolled his eyes and sighed.

"Yoda, you can't just waltz into my quarters without my knowing." He said.

"Pssh, silly, don't be, Obi-Wan. Waltz, I did not. Tango, I did. Billy silly!" said Yoda, chuckling.

"That. Is NOT. MY POOOIIIINNNT!" screamed Obi-Wan. "Just get OUT!" He pointed toward the door. Yoda shrugged and hobbled out of the quarters. Obi-Wan slammed the door in his face.

Yoda hmmphed and hobbled down the hall to some unknown location that isn't significant to the storyline at this moment.

Ahsoka leaned against the railing of her quarter's balcony the next morning in the early light. She took a sip of her hot chocolate. Suddenly, Anakin threw open the door to the balcony and screamed, then closed the door again. Ahsoka was so startled that she nearly spilled all her hot chocolate on Mace, who was sitting on a bench in a courtyard below. He was reading a book titled: When Failure Strikes. Ahsoka shrugged, and dumped all of he hot cocoa on Mace purposefully. She then ran inside her and Anakin's quarters.

"SKYGUY! YOU NEARLY GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK OUT THERE!" she screamed at Anakin who was lying at the couch.

"Soorrry, Snips. Chill out, dudette." He said, being cool-ish like. Ahsoka rolled her eyes.

"Whatever." She said. "So, what do you wanna do?"

Anakin turned towards her. "I have an idea! Let's watch some television!" Ahsoka shrugged and sat down next to her master, who turned on the T.V.

A commercial was on, with a really muscly tough guy. "HEY! YOU!" he screamed. "I have a CHALLENGE for ya'!"

This caught both Anakin and Ahsoka's attention. They leaned forward.

"Are you ready?" asked the man on the T.V. "Here your challenge… try NOT to think about penguins."

Ahsoka furrowed her brow. "What kind of commercial is this?" she asked out-loud.

But Anakin was still leaned forward, a serious look on his face. "Challenge accepted." He muttered.

Ahsoka got up. "I'm going to go see what Aayla is doing." She said. So she made her way to Aayla Secura's quarters.

When she arrived, Ahsoka knocked on Aayla's door. Aayla opened it, and smiled.

"Ahsoka! What a pleasant surprise! I was just making some cookies for the holidays." Said Aayla. "Come in!"

Ahsoka walked into to Aayla's quarters. It was crisp, clean, and simple. The first room was a simple living room, and in the corner was a small kitchen. A hall led off to the bedroom and bathroom. There was also a sliding glass door with white sheers hanging on the sides in the living room that led out onto a balcony.

Ahsoka jumped a bit when she looked out the door. Snow covered everything. Just this morning it had been fall. Winter always did come so suddenly. But not like this. Ahsoka shrugged. Oh well! She thought.

"Would you like to help me with my cookies?" asked Aayla.

"Sure!" replied Ahsoka. So Aayla and Ahsoka set to work on the cookies.

Barriss slowly opened her eyes. Someone- or something – was poking her. She blinked to clear the blurriness, and screamed as Yoda came into focus.

"Scream, why did you?" asked Yoda.

"Because! I just woke up!" cried Barriss. In fact, she had. She was lying under the blue blanket on her bed.

"But, bored, I was." Said Yoda, his eyes filling with tears.

"That doesn't mean you can just-." Barriss began. Yoda sniffed. Barriss sighed. "Oh fine, you can hang out with me."

Yoda jumped into the air. "YAY!" he cheered. Barriss hushed him.

"My Master is still asleep." She said. She sent Yoda into the living room while she got dressed.

Later Barriss came out of her bedroom wearing her normal Jedi attire. She and Yoda quietly tiptoed out into the hall.

Anakin's face was bright red. He was holding his breath. He was trembling in his strain to not think about penguins. He paused only briefly when he heard a knock at the door to say, "Come in." Then he went straight back to not thinking about penguins.

Barriss and Yoda walked into the quarters. "Hello, Anakin. We were-." Began Barriss, but she stopped as she gave a look of confusion towards the red-faced Anakin. "Are you alright?" she asked.

Anakin nodded slightly.

Yoda, as usual was in his own world. He pointed to the glass sliding door. "Hey guys! It looks like Hoth out there! Ya' know, where penguins live." He said.

Anakin screamed and fell to the floor.

"I guess Ahsoka's not here…" said Barriss, as she and Yoda hurried out of the quarters.

Yoda and Barriss finally found Ahsoka at Aayla's. Aayla invited them to come in and help bake some cookies.

"I'd love to help." Replied Barriss.

Suddenly Ahsoka's eyes lit up. "I have an idea!" she said. "How about everyone that wants to participate can cook something and we can have a holiday feast!" Everyone agreed to her idea. It was decided that the feast would be held at 7:00 that evening in the cafeteria. Aayla continued baking her cookies, and Barriss and Ahsoka set off to spread the word of the feast. (Yoda went to his quarters to cook whatever he was bringing.)

Later Ahsoka and Barriss had come back to Aayla's quarters to tell her who all was coming. They had written down all the participants' names. Ahsoka handed the paper to Aayla.

Aayla

Yoda

Adi

Plo

Rex

Cody

Mace

Padme

Obi-Wan

"Do you think that's a good list?" asked Ahsoka when Aayla was done reading.

"Yes! But what about Kit- er, Gilligan?" asked Aayla. Ahsoka and Barriss exchanged glances.

"Well, we-uh-have been avoiding him lately," said Barriss.

Aayla gave the padawans a confused look.

"He locked us in his basement." Said Ahsoka.

Aayla's eyes widened. "Well, what about Skywalker?" she asked.

Ahsoka gasped. "We forgot about him!"

"But, Yoda and I were looking for Ahsoka earlier, and in his quarters he was really red and… he was holding his breath." Explained Barriss.

Ahsoka face-palmed. She knew what this was about. "I'll go talk to him." She left the quarters and made her way to hers.

When Ahsoka arrived she threw open the door. Sure enough, there was Anakin on the floor, his face bright red. He was holding his breath. Ahsoka ran over to him.

"Master! Breath!" she cried.

Anakin shook his head slightly.

"Master, it's ok! You don't HAVE to accept the challenge to not think about penguins!" cried Ahsoka.

Anakin looked at her, and then took a deep breath.

Ahsoka sighed. "Good. I honestly don't know how you didn't pass out from holding your breath that long, but whatever." She said. "Now, do you want to join in on the holiday feast that Aayla, Barriss, and I are preparing? A lot of people have agreed to prepare something to bring. It'll be like a potluck!"

Anakin was still breathing heavily. "Sure." He said.

"Great! I'll let you get started on whatever you're going to bring." Said Ahsoka, as she left the quarters.

When she got back to Aayla's quarters, she and Barriss went to the cafeteria to set up for the feast. They kept up all the tables for the guests. They set a long buffet table against one wall, and hung red and green streamers from the ceiling and walls. They made white snowflakes and hung them from the ceiling as well. After they were done, they stood back to admire their work. They turned to each other and smiled.

"It looks GREAT!" cried Ahsoka.

"Indeed!" cried Barriss.

Later that day…

Ahsoka and Barriss stood at the doorway to the cafeteria, waiting for the guests to arrive. The first one to show up was Aayla Secura. She had brought her plate of cookies.

"I thought it would make a fantastic dessert!" she said happily, as she put her plate down on the buffet table.

"They will!" said Barriss cheerfully.

Aayla smiled and took a seat.

Next to arrive was Obi-Wan. He had brought tomato soup.

"It's my very own recipe," he said excitedly. He sat the bowl of soup down on the buffet table, and sat down with Aayla at the middle table.

After a while, Adi had arrived with her homemade pasta salad, Plo had arrived with his turkey, Rex had shown up with his rolls, Cody had arrived with a stick of butter, Mace had shown up with filet mignon, and Padme had shown up with her white chocolate fudge.

The cafeteria was now full of chatter, as other guests had arrived that hadn't signed up to bring anything.

Anakin suddenly walked through the door, holding a pie tin. "I made mustard pie!" he declared loudly. The whole cafeteria fell silent and looked at him. He waved, and sat the pie down on the buffet table. He walked over and sat down at the middle table next to Obi-Wan.

"So, now the only person who's missing is-." Began Ahsoka, speaking quietly to Barriss in the doorway.

"Yoda." Finished Barriss. She and Ahsoka gulped.

Suddenly, all of the lights went off, followed by screams from the guests. A microphone screeched through the darkness.

"One second, give me." Said a voice over the screech of the microphone. The screech died out. "Yoda, I am! Bring something yummylicious, I did!" said the voice. The lights came back on, to show that Yoda was standing on Padme's head. Padme screamed. Yoda ignored her. "Bring steamed broccoli and chocolate smoothie, I did!" he cried. Padme gagged. Yoda hopped down from Padme's head and sat his tray of smoothies down on the buffet table. He sat down next to Rex and Cody.

Ahsoka cleared her throat and stepped forward. "Thank you all for coming! I really don't have anything to say so- dig in and happy holidays!" she said loudly. Everyone cheered and grabbed their plates.

Soon everyone had finished his or her meals and dessert. Everyone was full. But it had been a good time.

A/N: Thank you for reading! Happy holidays everyone! Review! =)
