Hey guys, Amzoka is back with another chapter! Gah, it's so hard to type on my iPad. Anyway, I kinda brain stormed on ideas for the story just for fun and I ended up on something you guys are probably gonna like... Just kidding! I'm not gonna give my ideas out yet. Anyways, enjoy!
After the rest of the long, boring meeting, Ashley decided to take a walk with Anakin, who still didn't trust her. "So 'Mysterious Girl', would you like to come with me to visit Ahsoka at the Healers Wing?" Anakin asked. "Don't call me that" she whispered. He started calling her random names ever since she refused to tell anyone her real name.
"Sure!" Ashley replied cheerfully, "I have nothing better to do anyway. Besides, the Council meeting was boring for everyone". "Great!" Anakin laughed playfully, "If you can keep up". "Wait, what?" Before Ashley could think, Anakin sprung into a full sprint, heading down the hall they were walking in. "Great" Ashley grumbled. With that, she began chasing him down the hall.
"Master Skywalker!" She shouted. Anakin didn't reply. "Slow down!" Ashley shouted again. Anakin didn't reply again. "Come on!" Ashley cried, "Stop! Stop!" suddenly, something caught Ashley's eye. It was a pole, and Anakin was heading right for it! "Anakin! Stop! You're going to-!" Too late! CRASH! With really loud sound, Anakin was flattened right onto the pole! Ashley slowed down and walked right next to the pole.
"Next time, I'm walking" Ashley murmured as if trying to ignore Anakin.
A few minutes later, they arrived at the medical bay or the "Healers Wing" as most Jedi called it. "Here we are kid" Anakin said. Ashley couldn't believe what she saw. the place was amazing! Quickly, Ashley and Anakin headed toward Ahsoka's room. "I hope a Healer doesn't see us" Anakin whispered. "Why not?" Ashley asked. "Well, usually they get really angry. They don't want anyone to 'disturb' the patients".
Ashley thought for a moment. "What do you mean by 'disturb'?" Ashley finally asked. "Uh, I tend to be kinda loud when I'm here" Anakin hesitated. Ashley's eyes widened as she looked up at the older man. "You're kidding right?" she mumbled. "No" Anakin replied. "Great" Ashley grumbled under her breath.
About a minute later, they found Ahsoka's room. "I'm going to try to be quiet this time" Anakin whispered, "and you have to do so too OK?". Ashley nodded. Anakin carefully opened the door, as not to wake up any patients. Ashley managed to peek inside the room. It was actually a nice place. The walls were plain peach colored and the room was furnished with only a hospital bed, a small couch, and a coffee table.
There on the bed lay Ahsoka, Anakin's young Padawan. "Come in" Anakin whispered, "we need to get in here before a Healer sees us". Ashley slowly stepped inside, Anakin following close behind her. Please don't wake up! Please don't wake up! Ashley's mind screamed. If Ahsoka woke up and made a loud noise they were dead. When they entered the room, Ashley had gotten a closer look at Ahsoka.
She had never seen a Togruta in realistic form before. And Ashley was willing to pay any price to do so. Ahsoka was around the same age as her older sister, Spangeli, and for some strange reason, kinda looked like her too. She was almost exactly like in the cartoons. Her face markings, her lekku and montrals, her huge eyes, all the same. A white bacta rap was tightly rapped around her shoulders.
Ashley remembered the whole scene immediately. By now, Anakin and Ashley had sat down on the couch. Just trying to keep the peace. "Would you like to watch a replay of what happened?" Ashley finally asked breaking the silence. "What do you mean?" Anakin asked. "I have a recording of what happened. Would you like to watch it?" Anakin nodded, though he wondered how the heck she got a recording.
Ashley pulled her red iPad out from behind her back. For a second, Anakin had wondered how she had that the whole time, but a second later ignored it. Ashley turned the iPad on and tapped on the right app. Then, she selected a Clone Wars episode and fast-forwarded it to the right moment. Then she pressed play...
Anakin saw a cartoon version of his young apprentice. She was lifting Steela off of the edge of a cliff. Suddenly, the cannon, (Anakin had guessed it was from the gunship they had shot down in the story Ahsoka had told him) raised at an angle. Anakin watched closely as Steela had just touched Ahsoka's fingertips when there was a sudden BAM! Ahsoka was hit! Anakin stared grudgingly at Lux Bonteri.
He had hated that young senator for quite a while now. This time, Lux actually seemed quite useful in this situation. He shot the cannon that had almost killed Ahsoka. Anakin's young apprentice got up quickly, trying to ignore the pain. Suddenly, out of her scrambled concentration, she remembered something: Steela! Both Ahsoka and Lux rushed to the edge of the cliff only to find that they were too late. Steela was gone.
Realizing Anakin had seen enough, Ashley exited the app and turned her iPad off. Anakin was still staring into space. As if on cue, Ahsoka began to stir. They both looked up to see what was going on. She seemed to be waking up! "Uh, are we gonna get in trouble?" Ashley asked worriedly. "If someone hears her, then yes" Anakin replied. That is when they noticed how dimly lit the room had been.
Ahsoka's eyelashes fluttered. Then her huge eyes opened wide. The young togruta sat up slowly, as if she was confused. "Master?" She asked when she saw them. "Its alright Snips" Anakin said comfortingly, "You're just here in the medical bay. You'll be alright". "Who's the youngling?" Ahsoka asked drowsily. "This is Snippy. She refused to give us a real name".
Ashley smiled at Ahsoka. "Hi" she mumbled shyly. "Oh, and you're also her character idol" Anakin laughed. "Hi" Ahsoka said. Ashley was amazed. She sounded just like her voice actress! Ashley turned on the lights so that they could see each other better. "How's your shoulder?" Anakin asked, trying to bring some pressure off of Ashley knowing she was shy. "Master, you've asked me that a hundred times this week!" Ahsoka grumbled.
Then she sighed, "I'm fine Master. Just because you can sense pain, doesn't mean I'm not OK". "Alright Snips" Anakin sighed lifting his hands up. "Well this got awkward fast" Ashley said in the midst of all the awkwardness. "Yeah" Anakin replied awkwardly. After a few weird moments of staring at each other, Anakin decided it was time to stop. "I'll leave you two alone" Anakin mumbled. Then he walked out of the door and slammed it shut without another word.
Ahsoka sighed. "Sorry about my Master. He can be kind of... Weird, at times". "I understand" Ashley replied, "He's made A LOT and I really mean A LOT, of mistakes in the past". Ahsoka thought for a moment. "So, where are you from?" She asked. "Um" Ashley mumbled. She didn't want to lie to Ahsoka, but she probably wouldn't understand what she meant when she actually said it.
"An alternate universe or maybe just a different galaxy in your universe 'cause I have no idea how I got here and I'm not sure if you even understand me right now becuase I'm talking way too fast" Ashley replied super fast. "Uh OK?" Ahsoka responded, "So, what's the name of your galaxy?" She asked. "The Milkyway" Ashley replied cooly. "The Milkyway?!" Ahsoka exclaimed.
For a moment there, Ashley had totally forgotten about Ahsoka's injuries. She was acting way too hyper to look injured at all. "The Milkyway? Really? That's just outside our galaxy!" Ahsoka exclaimed, "How is it that your people haven't found us yet?". "Well, my people are quite primitive compared to the people of Corucsant" Ashley explained.
"Oh. Well, how primitive are they?" Ahsoka asked. Ashley sighed, "Very". After about five minutes of awkward silence, Ashley finally decided to speak. "Well, I guess your Master must be waiting for me. I have to go" she said. "OK. Bye" Ahsoka replied awkwardly. "Yeah, when are you being released?" Ashley asked. "Next week" Ahsoka replied, while the awkwardness in the room was fading.
"OK. I'll visit you before then. Bye!" Ashley said.
"Bye!"
