Chapter 21
Revan lay awake later that night, with Anakin sleeping peacefully beside her. How had he had those premonitions? The Council would never try to kill her, and if they did, she could easily ki... Sidious. She snarled. 'I told him not to mess with my apprentice!' Her unique eyes were glowing now, and in her fury, her true aura broke through the fake one.
Across the Temple, Yoda woke from his meditative state. He'd felt a fluxuation in the Dark Side, so he reached out. He found a festering core of Dark energy. Then it was gone. Yoda was troubled. A Sith was hiding here.
In the morning, Anakin rolled over and pulled Revan tighter against him. She murmured sleepy protests. He stroked her soft hair, murmuring,
"Don't ever leave me." She completely opened her eyes, and stretched gracefully, like a cat.
"Do you honestly think I would?" She put a finger to his lips as he opened them to speak. "I love you, I would never ever leave."
Palpatine growled. 'That Bitch! She's interfering with my plans!' Gleefully, be began to plot a way to kill her. He called in favors from several different bounty hunters, and sent them off with strict instructions to bring back the body. He gave them several ysalamari.
