It's not as easy as it sounds. Never is, never will be. It's a lot work and it takes a lot of time. Time, sometimes people don't have, no matter how bad they need it. So we must make do of what we get, hoping that it will be enough. When life gives you lemons and all that…..ya know.

Anakin woke up, once again in the chair next to Ahsoka's bed. He slowly stood up and popped his back a few time,

'Sweet mother of force that feels great.' After he was finished he looked over to the bed to find Ahsoka still sleeping. As always he was holding her hand. Which….. was fine. He didn't mind, really he didn't. Ahsoka had gotten a little better from that day they found her wondering around the temple. It's been a week. But don't be fooled, she was still far, so very far, from being even slightly ok, she still was passive as ever and she never showed any of her emotions and she only looked up when her name was being called. But she no longer needed to hold Anakin's hand 24/7, which was an improvement for her but Anakin slit liked to hold her hand anyway. It was fear; fear that if he would let her go she would once again disappear. So he held on, and almost never let go and don't get it wrong, Ahsoka didn't mind.

"Ahsoka, it's time to wake up." Anakin shook his padawan slightly but she didn't wake. "Come on rise and shine." Finally her eyes slowly opened to reveal her dull blue/gray eyes.

Her eyes used to be as blue as the sky,

But a storm came that made her cry,

And now the gray clouds that are in her eyes won't seem to pass by,

Even though her tears are now dry.

She looked over at Anakin with her blank stare. Anakin only smiled back at her.

"Ya know Snips there going to let you out of here soon maybe even today, then we can go back to our dorm. Doesn't that sound nice?" He didn't expect her to answer, he hoped but didn't expect. He wasn't even sure if she understood anything but her name but Luminara said that it would speed up the recovery of the brain if she was interacted with. So he spoke to her. Giving a lemon. He liked it. It helped him as much as it helped Ahsoka. "Ya it'll be nice, be back in our own beds. And no more of this smelly healing room, ya it'll be nice." Anakin's communicator went of. Anakin used the force to grab it from the bed side table.

"Skywalker"

"Anakin the council requests your presence." It was Obi-wan, always was.

"Master I don't know if you remember but last time I left Ahsoka left Ahsoka, she ended up leaving herself and Liminara isn't available, just send them down here….ya know what never mind I don't want them her Anyway."

"Anakin the council has requested both of you to come."

"What! Why?"

"They want to see Ahsoka for themselves, anyway it will be good for her to walk around don't ya think." Anakin sighed in defeat.

"Fine just give us a minute." And the link cut off. Anakin sighed again and turned to look at Ahsoka who was staring at her lap.

"Snips" Ahsoka looked up at Anakin. He smiled and held out his hand which she slowly took into her own. "Let's take a walk, ya?" He slowly guided her of then bed but when her feet touched the ground she was wobbly and unbalanced. Anakin grabbed her hand to help her steady herself. "Easy Snips take your time, no rush." About a minute later of trial and error she was ready to go. He led her out of the room and down the hall to the exit of the healing wing. As they were leaving they passed a healer who raised an eyebrow at the fact that he was taking a patient out of the medical wing.

"No need to worry Master we have been requested by the council for our presents." Anakin assured her. She nodded her head and went back to her work. The duo made their way across the temple and to the council room with little incident other than the whispers of rumors regarding everything that had happened to Ahsoka but those cold be ignored. Once they made it to the doors that led to the council room he stopped and looked down at Ahsoka.

"Everything is going to be ok, Soka" He looked back up and knocked on the door. A few seconds later he heard Yoda,

"Enter you may" so they did. Anakin led Ahsoka to the center of the circle. He looked around to find only five of the masters there in flesh and blood the others were holographs. His eyes landed on Obi-wan who had his 'you're not going to like this' look.

'Oh no'

"Good morning night Skywalker." Yoda greeted.

"Anakin bowed in respect,

"And good morning to you too Master Yoda. The grand elder's eyes then fell on Ahsoka.

"Good morning Soka, glad to see you walking around I am" But of course she didn't answer and once again neither Anakin nor Obi-wan had expected her too.

"Tano you will answer." It was Windu. Damn him. Damn him to Sith hell. He already knows that she can't so why push it. Damn him.

"She can't Mase." Obi-wan reminded him even though he knew that his friend already new. Anakin didn't wait for Windu to reply. "Why have we been called us here, my masters?"

"We wanted to see for ourselves how Ahsoka was." The hologram Master Ti answered. "But we see that it's far from well."

"She won't do anything else besides respond to her name. But she is getting better we just need time." We need lemons Anakin patted Ahsoka's head while responding.

"Time you may not have" Master Windu said coldly.

"What do you mean" The chosen asked.

"What I mean Night Skywalker is that we are still at war and you are still a general. You will be deported on a new mission with the 501s in a week." Windu replied with zero emotion.

On the other hand Anakin exploded. "WHAT! You can't do that. I can't leave Ahsoka like this. Look at her. I won't"

Windu's voice shot up, "You will, you have a responsibility to the republic and I know in the past you have had far too much rebellion in you. If you are to ever become a great Master you need to follow what needs to be done. Which you never do and that's why when you're around people die and get hurt and…." The room want silent. All you could here was an echo of a slap ring across the large room. Even master Yoda was shocked, because standing in front of Mase Windu was a very, very pissed off Ahsoka Tano. And you could tell just how pissed off she was by the sharpness in her eyes as she glared into Windu's and the frown on her face.

Emotions. But was it lemonade. Before any more could be said, Ahsoka turned around and grabbed Anakin's hand and practically dragged him out. But before they left Ahsoka turned around and quickly walked over to Obi-wan, grabbed his hand, and hoisted him out of his chair. While still holding his hand she led him from his chair to where Anakin was waiting at the door. While this hull think was happening Obi-wan was grinning like a mad man. Ahsoka got to Anakin, grabbed his hand again and led her two big brothers out of the council chamber. As Obi-wan was just leaving he looked over his shoulder to the still very shocked council that was staring at them leaving. Still with his insane grin he took his free hand and half waved at the council and called out… "YOLO." And the three were gone, leaving a very, very silent counsel behind. But was it lemonade.

The three made is to the turbo lift. As they walked inside Ahsoka's grip on their hands lessened. Once the doors closed a silence over took them as the two men went through everything that happened in their heads. Both looked down at Ahsoka to see that she has reverted back to her old passive self because yes the floor rely is that interesting, apparently. But that was ok with them. There little sister was coming back to them one step at a time. "Hey Master why don't we go down to Rex's dinner to celebrate." Anakin offered.

Obi-wan smiled down on Ahsoka, "That sound like a great idea Anakin we could all use some of their famous Lemonade."

Anakin shook his head his head, "Ahsoka doesn't like lemonade, it's too sour for her, but she likes their Apple pies."

Obi-wan nodded, "Alright then, let's have some pies."

So they left, not caring about what the council would say in the morning.

When life gives you lemons you are expected to make lemonade. And that's good. That means you took what you were given in life and made something better. But then some people come along and for whatever reason they decide to turn the lemons into something else, like apple pie and they leave the rest of us wondering how they did it. When life gives you lemons and all that…..ya know.
