Ahsoka didn't say much after her master had asked that dreaded question. She hoped he would never ask anything like that again.

By the time they had reached the hanger, Ahsoka had cooled herself down, but it still worried her to know her master suspected something even though nothing was going on between them.

Anakins firm voice shook Ahsoka out of her thoughts as he said

"Ok men! We are going to be taking a visit to Carlac, We have reports that there is a small separatist base that we have to take out, along side that, we have come to the conclusion that Death Watch has populated one side of the planet giving us a two for one mission."

"I'll have to cruisers ready for take off immediately!" Rex replied in his also firm voice.

"No, there is no need for that. This is to be a small attack, not an invasion. Only me, Commander Tano, and you along side a few other clones will be embarking on this adventure." Anakin said pointing his finger at Rex as he talked.

"Yes General!" Rex replied jumping to attention.

"You may choose the men you think are fit for this task." Anakin said turning to walk away.

Rex nodded slightly and turned to his men starting to think who would be best for this mission.

Anakin and Ahsoka walked side by side. Ahsoka was watching her feet as they walked. Neither of the two had said a word to each other since their little argument.

Anakin started to seem uneasy. He didn't like the silence any more than she did, so he spoke up

"Are you set for the long flight?" He asked looking half way down at his padawan.

All she did was nod.

"It's along flight, do you think you'll be able to handle it?" He asked upset that she didn't talk.

She simply nodded her head once more.

"Come on Ahsoka, why are you mad at me?" He said stopping and grabbing her shoulder.

"I'm not…Master" She said still looking down.

She looked so pitiful! Not the slightest smile or grin came to her face. Anakin hated seeing his padawan in such a manner.

"Then what is bothering you?" He said more concerned this time. He walked her over to a box where they sat on top of it so they could talk with a little more relaxation.

"Nothing…" She said as she sat down.

"Ahsoka.." He said letting her know he was being serious of the matter at hand.

"It's just…hard being a padawan…most teenage girls my age have boyfriends… but me…I can't even allow that thought to cross my mind without risking my position as a jedi…" She said with a single tear rolling off the tip of her nose to meet the cold, hard floor.

Anakin knew where she was coming from. He to had experienced the same thing when he had been her age.

"Ahsoka…Who is it?" He asked patting her back.

"Lux…" She said looking up to him revealing her pinkish red eyes from crying.

"Will you please tell me what really happened on Carlac?" He asked.

"When Lux took me to Carlac, Death watched surrounded us as we stood outside the ship…He had busyness with them…We freaked out when they asked who I was, and to cover up my true identity, I said I was…his betrothed…"She said pausing to take a breathe.

"Ahsoka, I didn't know.." But he was cut off

"To make it look more convincing when the death watch leader entered the tent we were in, he….kissed me…" She said afraid her master would be mad at her for acting so childish.

"Ahsoka!" Anakin exclaimed.

"I'm sorry Master! I know I failed you and the whole jedi order!" She said crying more tears than before now.

"I'm sorry, Ahsoka. It was not my place to yell at you." He said.

By now he was deciphering whether or not he should hint at his and Padme's marriage. It would be a risky move but he felt he could trust her.

"I know how you feel.." He said looking down at the floor himself.

"You do?" She asked confused.

"Yes..It may be hard to believe but i was the padawan once before too." He said looking up and smiling at her.

She smiled back and knew by the look on his face that he wouldn't mention it to anyone.

"I too had what you kids call now days, a crush on someone" He was taking a very large risk of revealing his secret.

"Really! Who?" She said in a most surprised voice.

"Thats not important, what I'm trying to say is, everyone at some time experiences what it feels like to like someone." He said looking at her.

"But attachment is forbidden" She reminded him.

"Yes but just because you are attracted to a certain being doesn't mean you love them" He said turning to the floor again,"Now come on, we should be preparing the ship.


It was their last night in the temple before they would leave for their mission. Anakin and Ahsoka had started talking again after their little talk which made Anakin feel better.

As they slept in the Master, Padawan quarters, Anakin started to squirm roughly in his sleep. Uh Oh! He was having another nightmare.

Padme' laid there with her eyes closed panting heavily as she spoke saying

"Obi-wan.." She said opening her eyes still panting like she had been running for many miles none stop.

He saw obi-wan looking down at her waiting for her to complete her sentence. In his arms Anakin noticed he was holding a baby. What was Obi-wan doing along side Padme' with a baby in his arms?

"Theres good in him.." She said painting a little harder now,"I know…I know theres…still…" but before she could finish her sentence she breathed her last breathe.

"PADME'! PADME'!" He yelled in his sleep.

Ahsoka was scared out of her mind now. Why was Anakin screaming Padme'? What was his dream about this time?

"Master!" She screamed shaking him," Master wake up! Your dreaming!"

Anakin shot up in his bed and force pulled his light saber to him from the night stand and ignited it. When he saw it was Ahsoka, he deactivated it and set it beside him and pulled his legs near hugging them as he started to cry.

Ahsoka sat at the edge of his bottom bunk and put one arm around him and put the other on his shoulder giving him a small hug of comfort.

"She died.." He said still resting his head on his knees.

"Padme'?" She asked looking at him.

"Yes.." He said as he looked at her,"I'm sorry but I must go check on her Snips"

He said getting up and grabbing his jedi cloak.

"Is she the one you loved?" Ahsoka asked looking at him as he was about to walk out the door.

"Yes…" He answered then went out the door leaving Ashoka shocked
