Anakin's POV
I held her close to me, my hand tangled in her hair as she quietly slept, for once she actually looked peaceful. I only wished I could hear the sound of her light breathing that I had missed so much, rather than the horrific one brought on by her restrictive mask.

I was hoping there was a way to help her, so she wouldn't have to wear it anymore without the fear of dying. I had one person in mind who I believed could help, someone I haven't seen in so long, someone I knew would do everything they could to help her - Master Yoda.

My love shifted in my arms and pulled herself closer, her head resting on my bare chest. The metal from her mask dug into my skin, but I blissfully ignored the slight sting. I laid here with her in my arms once more, and I couldn't help but silently cry.

I never thought I would get her back, it almost felt like a beautiful dream. I was absolutely terrified of waking up - only to be back in Obi-Wan's medical room, or hanging in a dungeon somewhere waiting for her to bring about my torture.

I sighed quietly, looking down at her sleeping face. But almost instantly - her (y/e/c) eyes shot open, "Do you hear that?" She asked, sitting up from the bed; making the blanket fall to reveal her naked chest.

I sat up with her and shook my head, "Hear what?"Then after a few seconds - I did hear it, the sound of loud screeching in the hallways, and a multitude of clones running. (y/n) slowly turned her head to glare at me, already knowing what the noise was. I chuckled awkwardly, "I think Artoo snuck onto the station."

"Snuck wouldn't be the proper word," She rolled her eyes, and got out of the bed - much to my dismay. She quickly began to get dressed and I watched her, my eyes lingering on certain areas, then her eyes shifted to mine when she was fully clothed, "Like what you see?" She asked with a head tilt.

I smiled, still feeling like I'm in a dream, "Yes."

She shook her head, and looked away as she zipped her boots up - her hair falling forward and covering parts of her features, "I'll get your droid, then we need to get you all off of this ship while I go take care of something." She stood up straight and brushed her own hair behind her ears.

"What do you mean?" I furrowed my brows as my heart dropped into my stomach. I just got her back, and declared to never leave her side.. now she's trying to separate? I couldn't do that, I couldn't risk losing her again.

"You think I'm going to let Sidious get away with killing my parents? Using me? Manipulating me? Stealing away my life?"

This is exactly what Cal feared - she's rushing off on a revenge-filled suicide mission.

I got up from the bed and began getting dressed as well. So if she attempted to leave, then I would follow her, "You'll die if you go alone," I warned her, "Let's figure something out - a plan, that we can do together."

She shook her head - fuck I forgot how stubborn she was, "My fate has been sealed for some time Anakin, but I refuse to allow you or anyone else to die with me." She turned to the door, about to leave.
