"Anakin!" Anakin stopped in his tracks as Master Windu's commanding voice sounded behind him.
Anakin turned around, dreading what he would hear. "Yes, Master?" he asked as respectfully as he could.
Anakin widened his eyes as a smile spread across Windu's face. The Jedi Master had been unusually happy lately, and it was starting to get really creepy. "Congratulations on becoming a father, Anakin."
Anakin stared at Windu. How does he know? Anakin wondered. It was even more weird that Master Windu referred to him as Anakin, not Master Skywalker, or just, Skywalker, and that he seemed genuinely happy for Anakin.
"...Thank you?" Anakin said finally.
Windu placed his palm on Anakin's shoulder. "I'm proud of you. Being the chosen one, the counsel couldn't just expel you from the order, and now they've lifted the rule on marriage!" Windu's voice rose in excitement.
"Anakin?" Padme's voice made Anakin turn around, but his wife wasn't there. "Anakin!"
Anakin jerked awake. It was a dream, Anakin thought, feeling foolish for not realizing it sooner.
"Hi," Anakin muttered groggily.
"You were talking in your sleep," Padme said. Anakin felt his face turn red. "It would be nice if Master Windu had lifted the ban, wouldn't it," Padme continued with a teasing smile on her face.
Anakin blushed even more. "What did I say?" Anakin asked.
"Enough to let me know what you were dreaming about," Padme responded.
Anakin was about to defend himself when his communicator beeped twice. Anakin pressed the button to answer, giving Padme a look that told her to be quiet.
"Skywalker here," Anakin said into the commlink.
"Anakin!" Obi-Wan's voice sounded through the commlink. "Come quickly! Ahsoka fell into a hole or something."
Anakin sat up too quickly, bumping his head on the low hanging ceiling. "I'm coming! Send me the coordinates!" he yelled into the communicator before rushing to get his lightsaber and the rest of his clothes.
"R2! Get the ship ready!" Anakin shouted to his droid as he fled the room. R2 beeped in response and started off to the ship while Anakin fumbled around his drawer for his metal arm.
Finally Anakin's hand bumped against his arm and he ran off to his ship, yelling over his shoulder to Padme, "you have too much stuff!"
"Good luck!" Padme called after him, and though Anakin didn't turn to look back, he could imagine her shaking her head in exasperation.
Anakin flew away from the platform where his ship was a little too fast, and bumped into a speeder, which crashed only like a thousand feet to the ground. Anakin was sure they'd be absolutely fine.
"R2, How close are we?" Anakin asked.
R2 responded in his adorable beeping way, "It's only five hundred galaxies away."
"FIVE HUNDRED?!" Anakin screeched. "Ok screw it We're just going to jump into hyperspace from here, speed up the time it takes for us to reach the coordinates."
"I've got a bad feeling about this," R2 beeped.
"Dew it!" Anakin ordered.
R2 still seemed hesitant, but still, they were in hyperspace in no time.
The different shades of blue fascinated Anakin, which was weird because he'd never paid attention to them before. Soon R2 started to get worried for Anakin, and rightfully so. Anakin couldn't stop staring at the colors, and was soon hypnotized and saying things like, "look at da rainbow!"
Finally, though, the journey through hyperspace ended, but Anakin was very dizzy and couldn't fly well. He crashed the ship into the hole or something that Ahsoka had fallen into before.
"I saw a purple dog," Anakin said, clearly unaware of the terrible situation he was in.
