For the next three months, the Jedi searched for their missing comrade. All the while Anakin continued to endure multiple torture sessions with every type of instrument imaginable. Each and everyone handled personally by the man who engineered his capture. Against all odds of every medical mind in the galaxy, Anakin remained the stubborn Jedi, who kept fighting against Sidious. Knowing that the longer that he held out the more chance that those whom he cared for most would be able to have more chances to find him a little more damaged than before, but he would be found alive no matter how long it took.

Anakin

Meditating had never been my favorite pastime, but during my 'comfortable' stay in this metal container I've had nothing to do but think. I am not sure how long I've been here however ironically the date I was captured was about three months and two weeks into the mission assigned to me by the council.

"Padme!" A few days before I left she had told me that she had found out that she was almost two weeks pregnant. To my limited knowledge, she would be about four months pregnant and would be slightly showing although she would be careful. More than likely she would disguise that she was pregnant with very elaborate gowns. Those things were never easy for me to get her out of whenever I do get home.

The next day the council informed me of my mission and over the next two days, I informed those whom I would miss the most. After the meeting, I went to find Ahsoka and Obi-Wan telling them what I could about the mission. Neither of them liked how secretive I was with them, I still remember my master's last words.

"I understand Anakin. However, something tells me that whatever this mission, you are about to undertake will challenge you in more ways than this war ever has, May the Force be with you."

I can't believe I'm saying this, but he was right and at this moment I wish he and Ahsoka were with me on the mission. Things would've turned out much different and I wouldn't be lying here alone and in pain.

"Jee beeogola (I'm stupid)" Involuntary I tried to give myself a well-deserved hand slap to the head, however making that quick of a movement reminded me of all of my wounds those that were still healing and those that were just opened.

"Great!" Gently readjusting the blanket I tried to get back to sleep, knowing full well that may allow me to gain some more energy before my jailer returns to continue his sessions. Drifting off into very light sleep thinking about a lot of things even with my connection with the force cut off I could still feel very strong emotions. Reaching out with my limited senses I could feel that the Force was a blend of so many emotions the most substantial ones were that of fear and desperation. As a Jedi, I wasn't supposed to feel anything especially not fear, that gave me a bit of joy when I thought about what the tabloids would say if they could see their 'Hero with No Fear' cowering in a corner.

I got a good laugh thinking what the holonet headlines might be, but something still bothered me about the larger amounts of emotions I was feeling earlier. Delving deeper into the Force I felt those same emotions, but being so deep within the Force I could better understand the main reason for the emotions.

The most intense feeling would be fear, the agitation was from someone afraid to lose something important to them. Besides that feeling was the one of despair, yet someone else was feeling this not the same person as before he or she was dejected as things were not going the way they hoped clues were not panning out and he or she was no closer to finding whatever it was they needed to find.

These emotions were all confusing and dark, but they weren't diminishing two other feelings both with lighter intentions. These were also being projected by others except for one. Those two emotions filled my heart with some much hope of getting out of here. They were determined not to give up hope in finding me! Love was also a major factor and it was for me that is when I realized from whom these emotions were coming from.
