Sorry it's a bit late - but here it is...

Anakin lay awake. The only noise was that of R2 quietly humming in low power mode in the corner of the room. As much as Anakin tried to sleep, he couldn't, something was stopping him. Anakin got out of bed, but then stopped. Someone was outside. It wasn't Ahsoka, he could sense that she was asleep. Then who was it? But as soon as Anakin attempted to delve into the mind of the figure, they had left. Anakin went back to bed, only to be disturbed by a series of rasps on the door.

"Ahsoka?"

"Master?" Came the reply. Anakin opened the door to find Ahsoka standing pair had been sleeping in their normal clothes, but Anakin had removed his black glove leaving his prosthetic arm exposed. Ahsoka had only ever seen his prosthetic arm a few times, but yet it still sent shivers down her back. It reminded her no matter who you were, you cannot escape the horrors of war. Ahsoka stepped into the room and Anakin closed the door behind her.

"There was someone in my room." Ahsoka began.

"I know. Did they hurt you?"

"No they just entered and then left."

"Don't worry, you're safe with me."

Ahsoka smiled.

"How about some night training?" Anakin asked his Padawan as he began to put his gloves on.

"But, Master, it's dark outside. You can't see anything."

Anakin smirked. "You know they're called lightsabers for a reason." Anakin walked over to the window and opened it, cold air rushed in. Anakin jumped out, falling tens of metres before landing gracefully. He ignited his lightsaber which cast him an eerie shadow. Ahsoka followed.

The pair sparred in shadows of blue and green.

"You're getting good Ahsoka, but not as good as me." Anakin laughed as he blocked her. They dueled until first light, when they both agreed that they should attempt to get some rest, even if only for an hour.

As they walked, what felt like the thousandth step towards their dorms, they were met with another presence. Agreed that this was most likely the intruder in Ahsoka's room, the pair chased after him. It didn't take them long to catch him and unveil who the mysterious person was.

"Snape." Anakin spat. "Why are you following us?"

"I was curious." The professor leered. "You are a very skilled in fighting - for a peace keeper."

Ahsoka could feel Anakin's anger rising.

Patience, Master. Ahsoka said through their bond and almost instantly she felt his anger vanish.

"Our galaxy is at war and it is the Jedi's place to protect the innocent." Ahsoka said quickly, before her Master could say anything to disturb the situation further. Snape smiled reassuringly as he turned to Anakin.

"Professor Dumbledore told me to give you this." Snape handed the Jedi Knight two bags. One filled with coins, the other with what appeared to be ashes.

"What are these?"

"This you will need to buy your wands and supplies and this is Floo Powder." He said pointing to the ashes. "I presume Dumbledore told you how to use this." Anakin nodded.
