Next Chapter! I just saw Episode 3 AGAIN and Ilove it soooooooooooo much! This is most likely the(pauses to count) 5th or 6th time I've seen it! Italicized is thought. Now they are in Aldera, future home of Princess Leia.


"Very disappointed in you, I am. A terrible thing to do, encouraging Skywalker was. Terrible things happening now, I fear." Master Yoda could only shake his head in disapproval. How could Obi-Wan, a Jedi he thought so highly of, do a thing like this?

"Obi-Wan, you have put your Padawan in unnecessary danger."The Masters of the Councilwouldn't be so lenient in their punishment for both himself and Anakin.

"If you would listen to me for a few minutes, I could tell you why I did what I have done. Once I am through, then I will accept your judgment." Yoda was with him on this. Yoda thought him to be a great Jedi Knight and would listen fairly. Master Windu, however, was a different story. His dislike for Anakin may deceive his ears.

"Very well, Obi-Wan. Explain yourself, you will." Now they were focusing on him and nothing else.

"Master Rwana-Jwi's Padawan, Adana, came to me last night, seeking guidance."

"Isn't Adana dead? Rwana said she had died in a raid on Tatooine."

"That's what she wanted you to believe. Adana and I, well, we believe there may be a plot against the Galactic Republic commencing right under our noses. At first I didn't believe it, but she showed me a transmission she had intercepted."

"Intercepted a transmission, she has, Obi-Wan?" He now had Master Yoda hooked.

"Who was it from, Obi-Wan?" Master Windu wouldn't believe him, but he had to try.

"From the planet Geonosis to Count Dooku. It said they would be sending a transport to pick him up and that leaders from the separatists were arriving to sign his treaty. She didn't know what it meant. Neither do I for that matter."

"Disturbing, this is. Reflect, we shall."

"Thank you." Obi-Wan bowed to Council and returned to his room to meditate.

Anakin awoke to the sound of the shower running in the bathroom connected to the room. The room was still dark and he could not tell whether was still night or she had just pulled the shades down. He peered over at the clock that was built in the wall.

"5:00. How could anyone wake up this early?" He sighed. Obi-Wan could. Whenever they were on a new planet, he always seemed to wake up around this time. Maybe it was the unfamiliarity of it. Anakin yawned and sat up in his bed. Running his fingers through his hair, he blinked to get used to the light. He could barely see anything. He got up and soon was fumbling around trying to find a way to turn the light on. There was usually a button close to a bed, but that did not seem to be the case here.

The light switched on and he turned around to see Adana standing in front of him with only a small white towel wrapped around her body. The sight made him just want to charge at her and make love to her. She was so sexy. Then he realized. This was the first time he had seen her in anything but pants. Her legs were long and slender. She obviously had no fat on them, it was muscle.

"I left my clothes in my bag. You might want to take a shower yourself. You smell." She walked over to her bag, pulled out a pair of clothes, and retreated back to bathroom.

Did he really smell? Nah, she was just joking, right? Oh well, he would shower anyways. At least, when she got out of the bathroom. When they had finally found to the room last night, he had been too tired to change, so he had just slept in the shirt and pants he had been wearing.

Finally emerging from the bathroom, Adana laughed to see her old friend attempting to what appeared to be making the bed. It was an old-fashioned bed, one that you actually had to pull the mattress up and fix the blankets to it. He wasn't doing a very good job. She found him stumbling over blankets, getting tangled in them, and cursing loudly.

"Are you having trouble, Ani?" She put a hand over her mouth to muffle a fit of giggles that came uncontrollably.

"No, No, I'm fine. Really." He grunted as he flipped skyward feet first and fell flat on his back. This caused another fit of laughter to come from Adana. She walked over and helped him to untangle himself. She got unusually close to his face and they made eye contact. Her blue eyes were filled with love and compassion. This was his chance. He could kiss her right now. They got a little closer, their lips almost touching before she looked towards the bathroom and pulled farther away.

"Uh, the hot water should be back," she muttered.

Anakin sighed. She was fighting her feelings, same as he was. They had gotten too close. They couldn't fall in love, such attachments were forbidden.

"Right." That was all he could say. He had gotten caught up in the moment. He went to the bathroom and started the shower. He wouldn't love her, he refused to.

The shower was a long one, full of reflection for him. He couldn't stop thinking about it. He had almost kissed her. He walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waste. He had been so distracted he had left his clothes, along with his boxers, lying out on his bed.

He opened the door and his jaw nearly dropped. There Adana was, singing and dancing, to some music on a form of radio. She was wearing black pants with a black cropped long sleeved shirt. The shirt flattered her form. She had a flat, well-toned stomach that was ivory like the rest of her. On the small of her back, she had a symbol tattooed there, though he didn't know what it meant. It was a circle, with half being black, half white and a black dot sitting in the white half, a white dot in the black.

"Oh, oh my gods!" She turned off the radio and stood there, her hand over heart, panting. "You scared me. Then she looked at him closer, and looked at his bare chest. She desperately wanted to run her hands over it, leaving only a trail of kisses behind. She blocked out that desire, denying herself the pleasure her body cried for.

All he could do was laugh. He had caught her in probably the most vulnerable moment of her life.

"Stop laughing!" This just made him laugh harder. Her face was turning what seemed like a deeper shade of red. "I am going to hurt you if you don't stop laughing!"

"Oh really?" He was still laughing. He just couldn't keep it inside.

"Yes, really." She let her laughter get the best of her and she stumbled over into Anakin's arms, barely breathing at all. There they sat, her in his arms, the two laughing until he finally calmed down. Adana stopped laughing, too, and she looked up at him. He was in that position again. The one where he could kiss her. Their faces were growing closer. No, I can't. Closer. I can't fall in love, the Code forbids it. Their lips were almost touching. Her soft perfume was teasing his senses. Screw the code. Their lips touched and he kissed her deeply. She put her hand on the back of his neck, pulling his head closer. When they finally pulled back for air, she just looked at him. Her eyes were so beautiful, sparkling in the special way they did. She was so beautiful. Then he came back to reality only to realize he was still in his towel. Suddenly, he found himself not caring. Normally, he would have, but holding a beautiful woman in his arms, he just didn't really care.

"You should probably get dressed." Her voice was soft and soothing.

She went to pull away from him, but he pulled her back and kissed her again, this time more passionately than before. She was swept away. They parted for air again, and she tried to speak, but he cut her off with another kiss. He pushed her up against the wall, her hands holding him close to her. Just when Adana was ready to give in to Anakin, he pulled away.

"You're right, I should." He shocked. He had been the one to kiss her, to not let her go, and now he was going to end it because of some clothes? She wasn't about to let him get away with it. He got closer to his bed, where his clothes were laying. She had to do something. Anakin picked up his clothes and turned around to see her standing behind him with a cunning smile on her face. Without warning, she pushed him onto the bed, straddled him, and kissed him. He sat back up, still kissing her. He didn't like the idea of being on the bottom, at least not with her dressed.

He pulled away, only for a few seconds, and pulled off her shirt. Then, they kissed again, fire burning inside them both, urging them farther. He kissed her jawbone, her neck, her shoulder. Then there was a loud beeping noise. He pulled away. It sounded like an alarm. Anakin looked at her, wearing a confused expression. Then he realized what it was. It was her comlink. Adana sighed. The one time she was actually going to enjoy herself, someone needed her. She pulled her shirt back on and climbed off of him. That was his queue to get dressed.

As he walked to the bathroom, she checked the location of her caller. The screen read:

Mr. Liam Jukaska

Room 135, Heaven's Gates Apartment Community

Aldera, Alderaan

"Hello?"

"Hey, weren't you supposed to be here by now? I haven't got all day." A hoarse voice came through the comlink.

"We'll be there soon, don't worry." Just then Anakin came from out from the bathroom.

"We? I thought you would be alone."

"So did I, but I ran into an old friend who was looking for me. He wanted to come, to protect me."

"Sounds more like a boyfriend if you ask me." She looked at Anakin, who was smiling. Well, she supposed he was her boyfriend now. "Well, alright, just get here before 10:00, okay?"

"Of course, we're heading to the cafeteria for some breakfast right now. I'll call you before when we're on our way."

The comlink buzzed off and there was a unsettling silence. Anakin pulled her into his arms and put his mouth to her ear.

"Can't we skip breakfast?" She knew just why he wanted to skip breakfast, but that would have to wait. She truly was hungry.

"Anakin, I'm hungry. Besides, we'll do that when we have more time."

"Promise?"

She laid her head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat.

"Yes." Just then, he darted past her, leaving her standing there.

"Race you there!" He shouted behind himself. He was a little kid again. She laughed, all she could was join him.

"No fair! You got a head start!" She called after him. She walked out of their apartment and looked down the hall for him. Anakin had stopped not that far from the door.

"Okay, then we'll go together." He had a smile on his face, though not a huge one. She jogged up to him and he put his arm around her shoulder and kissed her forehead. She walked the rest of the way with her head on his shoulder.


Now I'm going to have to write more, bacause I only have a few paragraphs after this! Thanx for the reviews!
