The Rising

Dreams that Dream of Me

Rex groaned as he fell to the ground again, his but screaming in protest as he got back to his feet.

"I think I preferred it when Skywalker was teaching us" Rex groaned half-joking as Plo helped him to his feet. "Id apologizes but you do understand that if you don't get this before the next time you face him he will kill you" Plo reminded him, Rex nodded before he spoke again "Silly me for thinking this was about me being your goddaughters' husband" Rex muttered under his breath.

"It's that as well" Plo answered making him jump slightly.

Rex glared at the overprotective father figure that was currently teaching him, then his eyes caught sight of his wife who was practicing against twelve training droids. Her movements were as bewitching as ever making him forget all about his sparing buddy who sent him crashing to the floor again with a thud that echoed around the room. "Head in the fight commander" Plo scolded before helping him up.

"Sorry I just got distracted" Rex answered bashfully making Plo chuckle "you remind me of Qui Gon, very focused unless there were two certain people In the room".

Rex looked at him confused before Plo continued "his wife and his only daughter, both of whom drove him crazy." Rex smiled before he heard the sweet sound of his Cyare calling out to them "hey how come you two get a break..ow you little-" Ahsoka hit one of the training droids that shot her in the backside making Rex grin slightly jealous of the droids proximity to his wife.

Plo glanced at her before smiling under his mask "Ahsoka, how about a team up with your husband?" Ahsoka noosed before blocking the shot of another training droid.

Rex smiled at her before he felt her hand on his gently pulling him into the training circle. "You always seem to lead me to trouble" he muttered to her before she kissed his cheek. "You say that like it's a bad thing" Ahsoka whispered back before Plo spoke, "ok you two listen up, this isn't a vacation, so stop being so handsy with my goddaughter!!!!".

Rex wiggled his eyebrows at her before she blew a kiss at him. Both playing slightly on Plo's nerve before the training droids activated.

It wasn't until hours later that Rex and Ahsoka dragged themselves into their room, their body's covered in sweat and minor burns. Rex fell onto their bed before he felt his wife falling next to him and cuddle into his side.

"So..........sore" Ahsoka mumbled as he curled his own sore arms around her.

He smiled before kissing her Montale gently "I can think of another time when you were this tired" Ahsoka blushed glaring at him. Rex chuckled "mind out of the gutter I'm referring to Umbara".

Ahsoka hid her face in his chest before jumping up "I'm going for a shower, that will help". At the mention of the word Shower Rex's head snapped up "you....need any help?" He asked innocently. Ahsoka blushed to realize where he was going with that, Rex on the other hand grinder before jumping off their bed and picked her up so her legs wound around his waist and he looked up at her his eyes sparkling with happiness. 

Ahsoka gently cupped his cheek before kissing him gently "no funny business, ok" Ahsoka whispered. Rex smiled back "no funny business, just a simple shower", Ahsoka blushed before yawning. 

"Then bed," Rex whispered as he transferred her weight to one arm, and using his free arm he opened the refresher door entering it smoothly. 

Rex smiled as he set her down on the counter before moving to the shower and turning it on to the correct temperature. he glanced back to see Ahsoka rubbing her thigh as she tried to massage her muscles into submission, "legs tiered?" Rex asked as he gently took over her massaging. 

Ahsoka nodded before leaning against her husband, "you did really good today Rexy" she whispered as he helped her undress and into the shower before following her. he kissed her forehead before he helped her to clean her Leku "thank you Cyare, but I have to put it down to your teaching". 

Ahsoka giggled as he brushed past one of her more ticklish spots on her shoulder "Hey, no funny business Mr." she said drowsily making Rex smile at her. 

He quickly apologized before he returned to help her clean up. 

It wasn't until after the shower that he noticed just how many minor burns she had versus him. 

As she slipped on one of his shirts he pulled her to sit on the counter, he still needed to find a pair of pants to change into before he succumbed to sleep and his bed that was woefully calling his name. 

"Rexy?" Ahsoka asked yawning slightly. 

"Yes, Cyare?" Rex asked as he mentally jumped for joy finally finding a pair of shorts. 

"You think that Master Skywalker is still alive?" she asked worriedly. 

Rex glanced back at her before catching the small shadows under her eyes. "you've been having dreams again haven't you?" Rex asked as he gently picked her back up. 

Ahsoka nodded before laying her head back down on his shoulder "its like...its like he is two different people constantly shifting from one person to the next" Ahsoka closed her eyes trying to clear her mind, "then I see the others kind of, but they are all shrouded by something". Rex gently placed her on the bed before laying her down and climbing in next to her. "Maybe you can meditate tomorrow to try and figure it out" Rex whispered before kissing her lips gently, Ahsoka hummed before cuddling into his chest her body betraying her. 

Rex wrapped another blanket around them before he heard a small purring coming from his wife her body automatically claiming his, a natural reaction he had grown to love and look forward to at the end of the day. 

"when this war is over you and I are going back to that little village and we are never leaving" Rex mumbled as he himself slipped off to sleep with his arms tightly wound around Ahsoka. 

"reeexxxxxyyyyyyy"

Rex's eyes snapped open as he recognized the voice of Skywalker. 

"what do you want?" Rex yelled out into the dream. 

it had to be a dream. he reasoned mentally to himself as he heard the voice of Kit fisto though it was very distorted "we already have what we want"

"REX!!!!" he turned around looking wildly for the owner of the voice. 

"AHSOKA!!!!!!" Rex yelled back.

"Join us.... and she will never need feel pain again" said Skywalker now appearing before him. 

"I WILL NEVER JOIN YOU!!!!" Rex snarled before he felt something soft a light tugging at his heart. 

Skywalker scouled at him before Rex was whisked to his home in Klon village. he looked around before he spotted his father in law "Where is Ahsoka!!!" Rex asked as he fought the urdge to run around screaming her name. 

"Shes in her own dream, one in which you feature heavily along with my grandchildren" Qui gon answered sipping tea on Rex's couch. 

"So why am I here?" Rex asked slightly confused. 

"Tutoring of course" Qui gon replied before motioning Rex to sit next to him. 

Rex groaned slightly before sitting next to the force ghost. This was going to be a long night.
