"What happened?" She asked. "I had been looking for you."
Anakin walked into his room, gesturing for Adeana to follow him.
"I was summoned by the Supreme Chancellor." He said. "He told me some things that I had never realized before."
"Like what?" Adeana asked, sitting on Anakin's couch.
Sitting down next to her Anakin told her about the whole conversation. He watched her face as she thought it all over, she showed no emotion, a habit of hers. But she did speak.
"I hate to say it but all of it does make sense."
"That's what I said to my self."
The two lovers sat in silence for a moment, a thoughtful silence falling until Adeana spoke again.
"What are we going to do?" She asked. "I don't want to serve a corrupt Council."
"I don't either, we could go to the Chancellor and try to find out more. He seems to be on top of things."
Adeana smiled at Anakin, her beautiful, loving smile.
"Well he has to be you know, he's the Chancellor."
The way Adeana said that made Anakin smile as well, soon both were laughing out loud.
"Did I miss something?" Someone asked.
Anakin and Adeana both gave a start and turned to see Obi-Wan standing at the door way, a smile on his lips.
Relaxing visibly Anakin spoke to Obi-Wan.
"Come in." He said, his smile thinning just a bit.
"What was so funny?" Obi-Wan asked as he came to sit in a chair opposite of Anakin.
"Nothing, just an inside joke." Adeana said, her smile completely gone.
Seeing that the subject was dropped Obi-Wan spoke again, this time about something different.
"Congratulations! Both of you!" He said, beaming at the two.
"Thank you." Anakin said dryly. "How many times had my Knight hood come up in the council any way?"
"A couple of times." Obi-Wan said, having been caught off guard.
After he had said it Obi-Wan realized what he had said, his smile vanished, to late to take it back.
"And why haven't I been Knighted those other couple of times before now?" Anakin asked, nonchalantly.
"Where were you last night?" Obi-Wan asked, changing the subject. "I wanted to celebrate with you over dinner."
The change of subject was not unnoticed by the two Jedi Knights, but the subject he brought up was an awkward one.
"I went out to dinner with Adeana, I didn't know you wanted to come." Anakin said, saving the awkwardness from Adeana.
Accepting that excuse Obi-Wan nodded.
"No problem."
"You were appointed master not to long ago right?" Anakin asked.
"Yes." Obi-Wan said, instantly alert.
"What does the council talk about in the chamber?" Anakin asked, watching Obi-Wan closely.
Obi-Wan frowned, that was a strange question coming from Anakin.
"I'm not allowed to speak of it out side of the chamber." He answered.
Adeana and Anakin shared a look, a look that showed each other their thoughts.
"Well, nice talking to you." Obi-Wan said awkwardly. He stood and headed toward the door. "But I have to leave on a mission."
When Obi-Wan was gone Adeana raised an eyebrow at Anakin.
"He seemed uptight when you asked him some of those questions."
"Yeah, I saw that." Anakin stood and headed toward the door, speaking as he did. "I do believe we need to go to the Chancellor now, before anything happens."
Adeana stood and followed Anakin out of the room, walking beside him as they made their way to the docking room.
"My thoughts exactly."
Anakin glanced down at Adeana out of the corner of his eyes, she walked with a determined air to her, her eyes set straight ahead. Anakin smiled to him self, he loved everything about her, the way she talked, the way she walked, they way she smiled at him, the way she joked with him with out really joking him. Everything about her was perfect to him, he would never change anything about her, and he would do anything for her, anything to make her happy.
When they reached the docking room a two setter, open cockpit was just coming in. Anakin took the speeder and got in, after Adeana was settled he started it up again and they speed out of the docking area, heading straight for the Chancellor's office.
