HHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOO

And now we celebrate the last day of this demonic year, with the first chapter of my randomness book. It's sort of like Lillie Tano-Syndulla's Of Marshmallows, Stale Graham Crackers, and Memories...(which is a great fic, by the way):P

DISCLAIMER: I DO NO OWN STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS!

Sand, and the Beach

Anakin stepped out of the command bridge and into the hallway, meeting up with Rex and Ahsoka. The Council had just briefed him, saying that instead of Bantuu, the 501st was going to Scarif. It was a simple mission: See if there was a Seperatist base on that planet. But since Scarif wasn't a strategic planet; they would probably find nothing there and have plenty of time to play on the beach planet.

When Anakin told Ahsoka and Rex, they probably had the same thoughts he had; judging by their reactions. Ahsoka jumped up and down and clapped her hands like an excited youngling. Rex pumped his fist in the air and shouted with joy.

"I can't wait to go swimming!" said Ahsoka.

"And for surfing!"added Rex.

"And for playing in the sand!" responded Ahsoka.

Anakin went to add something, then stopped, "Wait- did you say sand?"

"Yep!"said Ahsoka gleefully.

Horrifying realization sweeping over him. He processed what Ahsoka said, then let out a dramatic scream. Rex and Ahsoka stared at him.

Anakin gripped Rex by his shoulders and shook him, staring right in his eyes. "THERE'S SAND?! AT THE BEACH?!"

"Um...yes sir?"responded Rex reluctantly.

"This is..This is?!"Anakin couldn't form sentences. That evil substance, sand, was on beaches, abiding unnoticed?!

Ahsoka quietly asked,"Master, is everything okay?" She put her hand on his shoulder.

Anakin took in a deep breath. "No. THERE'S SAND AT THE BEACH! HOW IS THAT LEGAL?"

"Sir-"Rex started.

"THAT SUBSTANCE IS THE MOST DASTARDLY AND HATEFUL THING KNOWN TO SENTIENTS EVERYWHERE!"ranted Anakin. "THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! I hate sand! It's coarse, irritating, and gets everywhere! It should be outlawed."

Ahsoka and Rex looked at each other, then back at Anakin. This would be a wild ride.

"Evil sand..."The General of the 501st hissed, sounding like Golem.

Suddenly, Obi-Wan came down the hall" I heard a scream, is everything okay?!" He looked at Anakin, whose eyes were wide with fear and rage.

"Obi-wan! I have learnt something, something terrible…"Anakin said, nearly tearing out his hair."SAND IS AT THE BEACH! THIS SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED!" He yelled right at Obi-Wan.

"Didn't you know?" said Obi-Wan calmly.

"NO?"Anakin responded, half scared, half angry.

"Some people think sand is the best part of the beach."Obi-Wan responded, trying to make Anakin see reason.

"WELL THOSE PEOPLE SHOULD BE-I DON'T KNOW, CURSED?" yelled Anakin. After that, he sat on the floor, curled up, and said repeatedly. "Why, sand, why?"

Ahsoka and Rex looked at each other again, while Obi-Wan pinched the bridge of his nose. This mission would be a long ride...
