Laptop is still dead. I'm still writing on my phone. *sighs loudly* Enjoy!

Blue

To Ahsoka Tano, blue was an odd color that seemed to be everywhere. Blue could be spotted in the old paint of Rex's helmet - in the menacing designs of Seppie droids. But at the same time, blue was the color that filled the seas and skies. Blue was in the flash of Ahsoka's master's light saber. Blue was in the glittering shards of glass that littered the Coruscant streets. Blue were in the irises that Ahsoka saw each time she stared at herself in a mirror.

And no matter where Ahsoka saw blue, she always thought it was just a color.

"He's not going to make it."

"He'll make it. General Skywalker's faced worse."

"Yeah, but have you seen the man?"

"He's a Jedi. You'll see. They pull through quickly."

"Jedi isn't synonymous to immortal, Captain."

Ahsoka Tano was pretending not to be eavesdropping on Rex's conversation with one of the med-clones, but it was difficult, especially since there were only a few people in the room. She pretended to be interested in the thick color of white over Anakin's blanket - but that wasn't really enough, especially since the lumps underneath were signs that it was Ahsoka's master underneath them.

"He'll be fine," Rex repeated. "You'll see. We've been through countless other missions that were always seen as suicidal - we're still here in one piece." Ahsoka couldn't help but to smile a bit wistfully at that. Back in one piece, she thought almost bitterly to herself, but just barely.

A loud rumble of thunder boomed the windows next to Ahsoka. Flinching, she whirled around to watch the sky explode into streaks of light and veins of power. She sighed and watched the rain - that had been pouring down ever since last night - drench the soil and seep through the cracks of the ground.

A medical base - this was what Ahsoka was told this facility was. A very sterile, high-tech medical base that Ahsoka only barely reached in time, with Anakin slung between Rex and herself. Rex hadn't said a single word - he rarely did on these sorts of occasions - when Ahsoka appeared with an unconscious and bleeding Anakin Skywalker. Rex had nodded once - and wordlessly took Anakin's other side. (Which Ahsoka always thanked Rex for.)

"Alright there, little'un?"

Ahsoka tuned to look up at Rex. "Yes," was her automatic reply. Then, staring up at Rex, she corrected, "No. I'm worried for Master Skywalker." She looked down at Anakin's ashen face - the worst had passed - but he still hadn't woken, which was something Ahsoka thought was a source of concern.

"He'll be fine when he wakes up," were Rex's quiet words. "If there's one thing I've seen from being with General Skywalker, it's that that man will not back down from a fight, especially if it's for his own life." Ahsoka smiled. "Thanks, Rexter," she responded. She straightened herself - and looking back down at Anakin's still form, she murmured, "It wouldn't hurt him to be a bit more careful..."

"I don't think the General is familiar with that vocabulary word."

Ahsoka managed another smile. "Always knew you had some snark in you," she commented with a laugh. She turned back to Anakin - who, not to her surprise, hadn't yet moved. Ahsoka sighed and rested the side of her face with a palm. "You should go take a break," she said, rubbing her face. "I'll stay here."

"I would think you should get some rest first," Rex responded, though his tone wasn't hard. Ahsoka, however, continued to grin up at him. "I'll catch a quick nap over here - I'll be fine," she reassured at the captain's ever-so-present worried expression. "After all, we've faced worse, haven't we?"

Rex uttered a small chuckle himself - though when he turned to leave the room, Ahsoka was sure she heard him mutter under his breath, "I knew that one was going to come back to bite me in the ass."

Ahsoka smirked - but as soon as he was gone, it fell away and was quickly replaced by a troubled look as she turned to look back down at Anakin. She closed her eyes once - twice - and then caught sight of her master's fingers twitching. Jumping up, Ahsoka looked down - whispered, "Master?"

Anakin shifted his head - he mumbled something under his breath, setting unintelligable - and furrowing his brow, seemed to sink a little further into sleep. Sighing in disappointment, Ahsoka let her head fall on the mattress. She carefully cushioned herself with her folded arms and closed her eyes.

"Mm...huh."

Ahsoka felt something - no, someone - nudge her hand. Blinking her eyes open wearily, she mumbled, "Three mo' minutes...gimme three more..."

However, as Ahsoka's eyes blinked a few more times, a familiar face came into focus. Anakin Skywalker looked down at Ahsoka, looking bewildered and - maybe almost amused.

"Morning, Snips," he said hoarsely. "Mind telling me what's going on?"

Ahsoka's face split into a smile. "You're okay," she breathed happily. She leapt forward. "There was a blast - Rex and I had to drag you out of there - we managed to get here on time - Force, you had to get yourself into trouble again -"

"Aw, Snips," Anakin grinned. "You know me - I'll survive."

Ahsoka crossed her arms and watched as her master tried to sit up - only to cringe and sink back under the covers. Pressing her lips together, Ahsoka shook her head and re-adjusted the blankets. "Next time, then, Master, try a little harder to stay alive, okay? I'm beginning to think Rex is getting tired of being the getaway guy."

Anakin gave Ahsoka a sheepish grimace. "Yeah, fine," he replied. He propped himself up a little ways. "But did I miss anything else?" His eyes - always bright, always glinting - shone with a familiar mischief and cockiness that Ahsoka found herself getting used to again. She sighed. Even after going trough an ordeal, it seemed that her master was always quick to get back up again.

Then, Ahsoka smashed herself against her master - it was quick and a bit awkward, but Anakin - who at first stiffened - patted Ahsoka's back. "What, did you really miss me?" he asked lightly, but there was something softer in his tone. Ahsoka squeezed her eyes shut. "Just - don't - do anything stupid next time," she said haltingly.

There was a long pause.

"Okay, Snips."

Blue was the color of relief, and though it wasn't seen as frequently as Ahsoka would have preferred, it was still seen a number of times throughout Ahsoka's life.

A/N - Big news! Very recently, I got over 300+ follows/faves on my user stats! I still don't know if that's a big number compared to other people, but I still find it mind-blowing. So, because of this, I've decided to do a big fanfic giveaway, in which I can write any fanfic one may wish - more info is found on my profile page if you would like to enter!

And don't ask me why I'm updating this at like, one AM. I'm listening to rain music and I'm just tired. (Also, I needed to write some Anakin and Ahsoka stuff to freshen myself.)

Reviews are always great! Constructive criticism is alright, but flames are not! (I also apologize for typos - I really miss posting from my laptop. :()
