Chapter 19.
A/N Thank you Anisoka66 for the feedback that you gave! I will try to incorporate your suggestions. Anyway, after this chapter I have decided that I am going to update atleast once or twice a week for you guys, and two is going to just be a minimum, so I could always post more. But if you read the last chapter you probably know what this chapter is going to be about. This starts up right where we left off.

Ahsoka's pov
"Seriously? Master, this is a lightsaber." Anakin told Master Kenobi in a surprised tone.
"I am well aware of what it is Anakin." He replied sarcastically.
"Do you really think he needs one?" Anakin asked.
"It was my idea in the first place, and the Council approved."
That surprised me. The council approved something like that, although they have changed since the attack on Coruscant.
Anakin grabbed the lightsaber out of the box. The hilt looked a lot like my own, with a few minor details here and there. It had a grip for a more aggressive person, and one with bigger hands.
"What color is it?" I asked.
"I actually don't know, I haven't turned it on yet." Obi-Wan said.
"Let's find out shall we?" Anakin said
He pushed the button to ignite the blade, the result surprised us all. The blade was solid white. That was definitely rare.
"No way…" Anakin mumbled.
It truly was a beautiful color for a saber. It almost signified hope in this long war.
"That's amazing" I said in awe.
Anakin extinguished the blade and put it back in the elegant case it came in.
"We haven't received another mission yet so I will have to give this to Rex sometime soon." Anakin said.
I had realized in the days after the attack on Dagobah, along with the trauma that came with getting a cool but serious injury, that the Separatists had been rather silent.
"Has anyone else noticed that our enemy had been rather quiet?" I asked.
Obi-Wan answered first. "Yes… they have been, according to the Chancellor and the Council, we haven't received any intel on their next move, or where the Death Star is"
"First the Malevolence, now this superweapon? Haven't they made enough?" Anakin said rather annoyed.
"Be patient Anakin, they will show themselves eventually."
"I know, but at what cost? More lives?"
By now I had already went over and sat on the couch and looked out the window, the sun was just starting to set, making a beautiful picture over the never ending city.
Sensing Anakin's frustration, Obi-Wan bid his farewell to us and walked out the door.
Anakin came over and sat by me on the couch, I cuddled up to him and laid my head on his chest. He started caressing my lekku, I think he forgot that doing that causes a lot of pleasure for me. I shivered at the feeling.
He immediately though he did something wrong ,He gasped.
"Ahsoka, did I hurt you?" He asked.
I laughed a little bit at that. He got the most confused look on his face
"No Anakin, it just feels really good" I said as the feeling went away. With a slight smile on my face.
It took him a few seconds to get that. But when he did I could see the blush on his face, I made the Hero with no Fear blush.
"You know I actually liked it?" I smiled a seductive smile and looked away.
He started doing it again, causing me to moan quietly.
Instead of going down the path of making love right away. I started kissing him, and he kissed back, with such a burning passion, that it made me emotional.
We stayed there kissing until we couldn't anymore, only stopping to take the occasional breath. A single tear slid down the scar on my face. He somehow noticed.
"Ahsoka, Honey what's wrong" He said passionately.
A few more tears slid down my face. I found the right words to say.
"I'm.. I'm just so lucky to have you" I sniffled.
"No, it is I who is lucky to have you, Ahsoka, and you will always have me" He said.
"I just get so worried when we are out there. I'm always afraid you won't come out of it." I said, now sobbing into his robes.
"Ahsoka listen to me, I will fight to my dying breath for you, and I don't plan on ever leaving you, you know that right"
"I know, but what if something bad happens?" I asked.
"Then we will go through it together."
After that. I knew that he would be there for me no matter what happened in this horrid war.
I finally stopped crying after a while, and he didn't complain that his ropes were pretty wet, he just smiled at me the entire time, it wasn't a creepy smile, it was one filled with passion.
I was getting tired, so knowing he wouldn't care, I simply closed my eyes, and that was it.
Anakin's POV
I looked down at the beautiful Togruta laying on my chest, and I simply didn't know how I deserved her, there was no way that I deserved her, but she saw through the rough exterior, and somehow saw something that she adored.
I didn't want to get up and disturb her, so I simply relished the fact that she was really warm.
I had forgotten about the lekku thing, I had absolutely forgot that it made her feel extreme pleasure, but it was a plus, and she liked it, so where's the harm?
I had also gone over the thought of Rex having his own lightsaber in my head, I'm afraid it will make him more of a target then usual, he would have to use it only on rare occasions, unless he got really good with it, which could turn out to be the case, with time and training, he could become a very powerful wielder.
Other than that issue, Obi-Wan came up in my mind next. I had sensed my old Master to be… lonely almost.
I knew I would have to find someone for the old man, he wasn't getting any younger, and it would be a shame to have the Kenobi blood line end.
It is difficult to have a relationship in wartime, even more then it usually is.
I could feel my eyelids getting heavy, so instead of trying to think more, I simply let them close, and I tried to drift off into sleep.
Ahsoka's POV
Coruscant- Jedi Temple
Morning
I could tell that I was awake, I just hadn't opened my eyelids yet, but I did when I felt someone in the room besides me and Anakin. They didn't seem to mean harm, so I didn't jump up
I opened my eyes slowly, letting my eyes adjust, I looked up to see Rex, in what looked just to be the grey casual clothes that all clones wear, sitting in the chair across the living area, and there was about 5 cups of caf setting on the table.
He looked over to me and smiled slightly, He silently pointed to Anakin with a questioningly look on his face.
I gained an evil smile on my face and saw Rex lift his brow before I smacked Anakin in the chest, causing his eyes to fly open.
"Ooof!" he made a sound.
I couldn't keep in a laugh, as Anakin was now wide awake after my smack, he hadn't even seen Rex yet. He looked straight at me.
"Well, Goodmorning beautiful" He told me.
That made me blush, how could he not sense Rex sitting right there?
He started to give me a kiss, right before he got to my lips, I grabbed his head, turning it towards Rex, and causing his neck to pop really loud.
"Ow!" He exclaimed.
He then noticed Rex sitting in the chair.
"Why hello there" Rex said with an amused tone.
"Rex?" He asked, getting out from underneath me.
"Yup"
"Er.." He couldn't seem to come up with words.
"Don't worry I haven't been here but ten minutes, have some caf" Rex said while pointing at the cups on the table.
"Thanks" Anakin told him.
We all grabbed a caf and started drinking. Then I had to ask.
"So what brings you here?" I ask him.
"I can only stand the guys for so long in the barracks with nothing to do. So I came here"
"Alright then" I mused.
Anakin got a look on his face that he remembered something, he reached for the case that was on the side table beside the couch. It was the case with the lightsaber.
I instantly got a smirk on my face, oh this was going to be interesting.
He slid it across the main table to Rex, who was obviously confused.
'Is this for me?" He asked.
"Indeed it is. Open it" Anakin told him.
Rex took the case into his lap and opened the case, his face was absolutely priceless. He couldn't seem to be able to speak.
He took it out of the case and held it in his hand.
"This is awesome…" He whispered.
Anakin and I had huge smiles.
"This is actually mine?" He asked.
"Yes, what are you waiting for? Turn it on." I told him.
He ignited the saber, and he looked at the pure white blade in awe, just like I had.
"I guess General Kenobi wasn't kidding when he said he would get me a saber" He said.
So that is what Master Kenobi meant when he said it was his idea.
Anakin spoke before I could.
"Be careful about using it, its bound to make you a target, even more then you are now." Anakin said in a serious tone.
Rex seemed to understand this
"Yeah, I guess its going to isn't it?"
"Practice will help, you'll have to train with it."
"Oh wont that be fun, who is going to train me, you?" Rex said in a friendly but sarcastic tone.
I smiled, and knew it would be fun beating him.
"You sure you wanna bark up that tree Rex?" Anakin asked.
"Oh yes, I am sure"
I laughed at that.
"We will see Rex, We will see"
Obi-Wan's POV
The hanger wasn't the best place to hang around, the smell of the of the fuel the gunships use gives me headaches, but I was simply roaming due to the lack of a mission.
I could see that most of the clones weren't enjoying fixing the pesky little parts on the ships, but who would, well Anakin would.
I was looking out the open view port when suddenly a Mandalorian ship flew into the hanger, wait, no that's impossible, how did they get clearance?
"What in the blazes" I said outloud
The last time I was on Mandalore the place was a mess, I remember… having to leave the planet before I could find Satine… Maul took us to different cells, and Bo thought her sister was dead and came for me. I never did have to say anything to her, I thought she was dead too.
I came down from the viewport and down the hanger to the ship, the ramp was still up.
I had my lightsaber in my hand, ready to be ignited if needed. The clones already had their blasters aimed at the ship.
The ramp finally came down, and out walked Bo. What a surprise.
She looked horribly down beat.
"Lower your weapons troopers!" I exclaimed.
They all lowered their weapons.
"What brings you here?"
I could sense her distress
"The Separatists… they're on Mandalore…" That was all she could get out, then she fainted.
No, with Maul and the Separatists both being on Mandalore that would be… that would be bad.
I have to report this to the Council Immediately
A/N- Oooh! A twist! Well I hope you guys liked it. I got over 2000 words yay! Well since this isn't exactly canon, we are gonna say satine is alive. Barely, but alive. Welp. Review please guys, and ill see you next chapter!
