Chapter Five: Worry and the wrong turn
It had been sometime since Ahsoka had been on Naboo and she was excited yet scared with returning to the planet that almost taken her life when the vial and yet evil Doctor Vindi had unleashed the Blue Shadow Virus. She had been on Naboo since then, of course. She and Anakin had rescued Force sensitive children from the evil clutches of Cade Bane.
For Padmé she was returning home but not for a break. Naboo was also the one planet where she and Anakin had fallen in love and married. Now she had to go on a mercy mission to rescue her sister from Asajj Ventress' clutches.
Ahsoka helped her pack and the pair hurried out of the room to join Anakin, R2 and 3PO in the living room.
"Ready to go?" asked Anakin, rising from the couch at the sound of his wife and Padawan's footsteps.
"Yep, let's go Master." Ahsoka said with a slight nod of her head.
She exchanged glances with Padmé who nodded in agreement.
With one last glance at her husband, Padmé lead the group out of Senate building one at a time so they didn't attract attention and headed aboard the Twilight. Once on board, Anakin ordered R2 to fire up the engines. Anakin knew what he had to do.
"OK, to Naboo." Ahsoka said as she took control of the ship.
Padmé took hold of the pilot chair head rest fearing for her life. Anakin turned to see his wife holding on with her life.
"Relax. She's actually a really good flyer." Ahsoka tried her head so she was looking out of the corner of her eye. "When she wants to be." Anakin finished with a smug look on his face.
"Hey!" protested Ahsoka. Padmé laughed.
Padmé shook her head. "Don't worry, Ahsoka. He didn't mean anything by it." She turned to face her husband fully.
"You're siding with her? What about me?" He protested. Ahsoka looked up from a brief second and exchanged looks with Padmé.
"I almost always side with you," Anakin was far from happy. "Hey, I married you didn't I?" Padmé teased. Anakin thought about it for a moment.
"Got a point there, Senator." He teased back. Ahsoka rolled her eyes in annoyance and turned back to piloting.
For Ahsoka, now knowing of her master's secret life was great and all but some part of her felt like she shouldn't know at all. She felt guilty for interfering. However, she also felt more comfortable around Anakin and Padmé now
A silence lured the trio into an awkward silence. Ahsoka wanted to keep her master and his mistress talking before it turned into a gush feast.
"Ok so what's the plan, Sky Guy?" asked Ahsoka, breaking the eerie silence.
Padmé looked at Anakin who silently explained they had nicknames for each other.
"We need to sneak onto the planet without being detected," said Anakin but when he said this he threw the question at Ahsoka.
"What at you looking at me for?" asked Ahsoka looking up at her master's facial expression.
She looked at Padmé whose wasn't looking at her.
"Padmé?" asked Ahsoka. She followed Padmé's eyes to the windshield. They were in the midst of a full scale battle between Republic forces and the Separatists.
The trio plus Artoo and Threepio hadn't even jumped into hyperspace.
Padmé looked from her husband to his Padawan and back again. "This can't be right! We're in the midst of a battle!"
Anakin and Ahsoka looked at each other before turning back to the windshield.
"What are we going to do?" asked Threepio, making Padmé and Ahsoka jump.
"3PO, what are doing out here? You're supposed to be charging up!" said Ahsoka as she moved the ship to avoid an attack from one of the ships.
Anakin's mind raced quickly to conjure a quick and foolproof plan.
"Master!" screamed Ahsoka as she dodged another attack.
Than a voice came over the radio.
"Incoming ship identify yourself," came the voice of Aayla Secura.
"Master Secura! This is commander Tano with General Skywalker and Senator Amidala on board!" replied Ahsoka.
"How did you get out here?" replied Aayla.
"We have to travel back to Naboo. Can you distract the enemy long enough for us to enter hyperspace?" she asked. Aayla didn't reply for a second causing Ahsoka to get worried.
"We should be able to. But be really careful, young one." said Aayla.
"We will master and may the force be you." Ahsoka said respectfully.
"May the force be with you, young Ahsoka." Aayla said.
Ahsoka commanded Artoo to get them into hyperspace. He did what he was told and the Twilight rocketed into space away from the battle.
