After Ashoka trial
Standing in the Council room was a bunch of Jedi Masters. Yoda, Windu, Kenobi, Plo Koon, Mundi, Tiin. There was also Anakin and Tohno there as well. Ashoka was glad those two were there because when the Council had turn their backs on Ashoka, Anakin and Tohno were the only ones to stand by her. They were the only ones apart from Padme that believed she was innocent.
"Ashoka I'm so sorry." Said Anakin his head was lowered. "About everything."
Master Plo spoke. "You have our most humble apologies. The Council was wrong to accuse you."
They offered Ashoka the chance to return to the Jedi. But Ashoka said she can't.
As Ashoka left the room Master Tohno Said. "We have lost a great Jedi because you." Everyone look at her. Then she and Anakin rush after Ashoka.
Ashoka was walking outside the Jedi Temple. She had just turn down the offered to return to the Jedi Order. But the betrayal of the Jedi apart from Anakin and Tohno.
And the betrayal of Ashoka's friend Barriess Offie. Ashoka no longer trusted the Jedi anymore.
"Ashoka." Came a voice that made Ashoka heart races. She look up to see Padme stand in front of her. The sun on her back. They move towards each other until they were facing each other.
"I can't stay with the Jedi. I..." Ashoka stop when Padme enfolded her in a hug. "I know, Ashoka. But I hope that doesn't mean you think you can't stay with me." The tears that had been in Ashoka eyes started to slowly fall down her cheeks as she returned the embrace.
"You are my life now. I just don't know what I'm going be able to do..." Said Ashoka. Padme pulled away still holding her Torguta in her arms.
"We will figure this out together." Said Padme touching Ashoka face with her hand gently brushing the tears off her face.
"It could cause trouble for you it I'm seen with you after what happened." Padme smiled and Ashoka smiled back. "Like that's going stop me. You can be what ever you want to be. Not a servant you would look weird in one of the orange robes the others wear." Ashoka chuckled. "Maybe my right hand woman. My advisor, protector,..."
"Wife?" Ashoka said in a low voice. Padme eyes glim in to light of the setting sun. Then Ashoka not caring if anyone was watching got on one knee holding Padme's hands in hers. "Padme Amidala. I love you with all my heart. Will you do me the honor and marry me?" Padme smiled knowing that she didn't need a fancy way of being asked. "I love you too. Yes Ashoka Tano I will marry you."
Ashoka got to her feet and capture Padme lips with her own. Padme didn't miss a beat in returning the kiss.
"I hope we're invited to the wedding?" Came Anakin's voice. The two woman smiled at him not surprised he and Tohno were there. "It be on Naboo." Anakin gave a small smile.
"I understand why you must leave Ashoka. When trust is broken it's very hard to mend." Ashoka nodded. "Thank you Tohno." Ashoka then turn back to Anakin.
"If you ever need my help? I'll be there Skyguy." Anakin nodded. The two hugged each other. "The same to you Snips. Take care of her." He said to Padme who smiled and nodded. "And Tohno better take care of you." Both Anakin and Tohno blushed.
"Let go home." Ashoka nodded and followed Padme with their hand together into what ever the future my bring.
