Ahsoka's POV

Apparently Obi-wan and I were still blabbering like fish and making noises that sounded like an agitated Wookie when we were making our way back to the quarters, because Anakin finally said in an exasperated voice, ' Can you two please stop blabbering and gaping as if I have done something stupid?'

' Technically you did,' Obi-wan defended. ' You didn't even flash me a warning.'

' We are the victims, oh my eyes,' I teased sarcastically.

' Shut up,' He said gloomily. ' I don't even know the Council's decision. What will they even do?'

' Don't worry, I will stand up for you till the end,' Obi-wan clapped Anakin on his back. ' I'll try to ask the Council to let you stay in the Order plus, cough, allowing you to have an attachment on Senator Amidala.' Anakin gave Obi-wan an evil glare.

I had to pull the two apart before they started to bicker like kids again. The last few times they argued, I had seen enough of it. One time when Obi-wan faked his death to uncover a plot to kidnap Palpatine (Sidious), Anakin was so angry with the Council and Obi-wan for keeping such an enormous secret from him, that he refused to talk with Obi-wan for many days. I tried being the person in the middle, but well, let's say it didn't go well.

' Right,' Obi-wan hooted, before shooting Anakin another knowing glance. ' Let's get back to our quarters and call this a night. It had been tiring.'

' Yes, before Master Yoda puts us back into the bacta tanks again,' I snorted at the horrified look on Obi-wan's face.

We parted our ways, when Obi-wan left for his own quarters. We arrived at our quarters. I unclipped my lightsaber and shotosaber first and laid them onto a table. Then, I ran off to the refresher and took a shower.

When I came out of the refresher, I spotted Anakin looking at the skyline of Coruscant from the window, with his back to me. I could sense via our bond, he was super conflicted, fear and pain, perhaps also a sense of doubt, because he killed Sidious. He still thought that Sidious had a way to save Padme.

I plopped onto bed, said softly, ' Goodnight Skyguy.' He didn't seem to catch it, so I rolled over and closed my eyes.

Dreams began to pop out.

I was standing in some sort of a terrain, except instead of green grass or brown sands; everything was blindingly golden and white. A woman was standing near me.

I could recognize her anywhere. The long flowing green hair, beautiful pale face and the golden dress. Daughter.

' Ahsoka Tano,' She smiled. ' I have been waiting for you.'

' Daughter!' I gasped. ' I… I thought you died! My master told me that you sacrificed yourself to save Father… And you gave me your powers so that I could live.'

' Indeed I did. But… The Force works in a mysterious way, anyways, let's not bother about that,' She shrugged. ' I have come to talk to you about your vision.'

Realization dawned on me. ' You sent me that vision… Of Darth Vader,' I pointed out.

' Yes,' Daughter nodded. ' I indeed have sent you years into the future for a short while to witness the consequences of the Light side of the Force if you have left. Destruction, chaos and the Darkness will remain. Only you can help to restore the balance within the Chosen one.'

' Why though, why me?'

' There are a lot of reasons behind his fall,' Daughter explained grimly. ' First, being his mother Shmi Skywalker. She had died from the hands of Tusken Raiders. Second, would be if you left the Order. The original Vader felt a great sense of failure of failing to keep you, and in fact he did feel angry at you for deserting him. The third would be the deception from Darth Sidious, and the Council not trusting him. He felt isolated and lonely. His loneliness, fear, anger and hate led him to the Dark side.'

' I… I never knew that,' I said, lost for words.

' Now you know, don't you?' Daughter laughed gently. ' Trust in the Force, Ahsoka Tano.'

Before I could say anything, the vision flashed away like glimmering stars and I was back in my quarters. Huh. It was morning already.

My master's room door was closed, which indicated he was still sleeping. I got up, and decided to spend my morning training on my own in the training centre.

Obi-wan's POV

All the masters gathered in the Council chambers for the emergency meeting.

All of them looked pretty shocked and serious. Master Yoda at the head of the table started the meeting, ' Today, going to discuss the matters of Knight Skywalker and Darth Sidious, we are.'

' Master, do you believe in this cock and bull story told by Padawan Tano?' Mace Windu crossed his arms, totally suspicious.

I snorted, ' Master Yoda believes so. Why not?'

' Though… Visions are never heard of before,' Shaak Ti said truthfully. ' It is the first time I have ever heard of that… Plus the idea of Knight Skywalker falling to the Dark side is… very hard to process.'

' That is not the main point of today's meeting. We are here to discuss the issue of Knight Skywalker and his attachment,' Ki-Adi-Mundi said gruffly.

Plo Koon said, ' we should not expel him. Knight Skywalker is really the Chosen one. After what he had done for us, it seems very wrong to expel him.'

' He did break the Jedi Code,' Windu pointed out sharply.

' Hey. He managed to keep to the light side,' I blocked his argument. ' That means having attachments may not lead to falling to the dark side.'

' Master Kenobi is right,' Luminara Unduli agreed earnestly. ' In fact, we should promote him to the rank of Master.'

Windu seemed shocked, ' What? After breaking the Code, he gets to be promoted to Master AND not get expelled?'

I gritted my teeth, trying not to Force punch the guy in his teeth, ' He helped us vanquish Sidious. Isn't that a good enough reason? After what he has done for us and fulfilling the prophecy of the Chosen One, we can't just expel him from the Order because of an inflexible code that he didn't really fully break.'

Aayla Secura glared at Windu stiffly, ' I agree with Master Kenobi. In fact, I think the rule about no attachments needs to be amended. Attachments should be allowed to those worthy enough, and Knight Skywalker is one of them. Plus, I think that Padawan-Master attachments should not be counted as attachments as well.'

' What?!' Windu yelped incredulously.

There was quite a lot of tension between the table and each Master. Plo Koon, Luminara, Aayla, Shaak Ti and I were basically glaring at him, as if daring him to disagree, while Ki-Adi-Mundi and some other masters seemed rather uncertain and began fidgeting in their seat.

Finally Master Yoda cleared his throat serenely, ' Decided to make Knight Skywalker a Master, I have. Agree with Master Kenobi and Master Secura, I do. Amended and changed, the rule of attachments should be. There is one more thing though. Matters considering Padawan Tano.'

' Yes,' Plo Koon said. ' She helped vanquish the Sith lord as well. She should be rewarded appropriately.'

' I propose making her a Jedi knight,' Luminara nodded at Plo Koon.' All she had done deemed her worthy as a true knight.'

Yoda said, ' Anyone disagrees? No? A Jedi Knight Padawan Tano shall be made.'

The rest of the Council members mumbled consent.

I smiled to myself as the members left. Everything went well. Anakin would be jumping like an excited Wookie at the news. Though I doubted he would be very happy with the fact that Ahsoka was no longer his Padawan. They would have to separate.

He would have to get over with it. That happened to me as well, when Anakin got promoted to Jedi knight. I knew I had to let go with my attachments, no matter how much I didn't want to let go of my little Padawan Skywalker.

'Now... Just wait till he hears the news,' I told myself.
