I had just left the Senate, heading for my ship with Nala and my bodyguard. I had to go to the Jedi temple to see Master Windu. Master Windu had asked me to go see him once I was back on Coruscant to give him a "report" on the progress of my powers.

We arrived at the front of the ship, the ship landed, and I went straight out, leaving my bodyguard and Nala in the ship. I told them he could go home and I would make my own way back. My bodyguard insisted on coming with me, but I told him that I would be fine and that I would be safer at the Jedi Temple anyway.

I see Master Windu leaning against a large column, I smile politely at him before approaching him.

"Princess, it is a pleasure and a relief to see you again.

- Master Windu, it's a pleasure too." I say.

The jedi begins to walk down the hallway beside me before asking me if my powers had evolved or changed.

"Well, I don't want to sound alarming but everything is starting to amplify and become more and more dangerous and powerful.

- Meaning?

- I can't control my powers anymore and they became even more powerful after I took out the droids, as if I had opened a door for my powers to become destructive."

Windu looked worried, he just nodded up and down as I spoke, nodding with every word that came out of my mouth.

"As far as your powers becoming progressively destructive, I'm not worried. You are not using them to endanger anyone's life or against the Republic. But the fact that you can't control them is a problem.

- I suppose so. I don't know what to do Master, I need help."

Master Windu stops at the end of a hallway leading to two more at either end. The Jedi begins to think, putting his hand to his mouth.

"I could put you under the supervision of one of our excellencies. I hear you get along well with young Skywalker?"

I think before I see Anakin's figure coming up behind Windu. The jedi then turns, noticing that I was no longer paying attention to our conversation.

"Speak of the devil..." he said.

Anakin was accompanied by Obi-Wan Kenobi, the jedi smiled when he saw me, as did his Padawan.

"Princess Naberrie, how nice to see you again."

Obi-Wan shakes my hand, before he greets his colleague, Master Windu. Anakin does the same.

"Hello Master Kenobi, I feel like I haven't seen you in ages."

Obi-Wan stifles a laugh, Windu then speaks up, turning to my friend Anakin.

"We were just talking about you, Skywalker. Windu turns to Obi-Wan before continuing, I was wondering if Anakin would be in a position to take care of the princess during her stay on Coruscant."

Obi-Wan turns to Anakin, asking him with a look if he would be willing to perform this service, I then speak up.

"Don't feel obligated.

- Her powers are getting out of hand and increasingly destructive, I would feel more reassured if you would stay with her." Master Windu shares.

Anakin's gaze fell on me. It was as if history was repeating itself, Anakin is charged with protecting/staying with me as he was charged with Padme. I felt embarrassed to ask him this, even though it wasn't really me asking him, but rather Windu. But since it was for my safety and also for the safety of civilians, I felt concerned.

"I'd be happy to." Anakin replied, a big smile on his lips.

I rest my eyes on Anakin, smiling before I feel Kenobi's questioning gaze dart between Anakin and me. Windu speaks up.

"Perfect, thank you very much young Jedi. He said before turning to me, see you soon princess. Be careful.

- Thank you Master Windu." I said.

Windu turns his back to us before leaving, immediately Obi-Wan crosses his arms against his chest before turning to us.

"No nonsense, both of you. Especially you Anakin.

- Yes master." Anakin replies with a sigh.

I look up at Anakin before Obi-Wan bows to us and leaves to join Windu. I turn to Anakin before he speaks.

"Looks like I'll have to stay with you for a long, exhausting week.

- Long and exhausting?" I say.

I tilt my head slightly to the side, squinting before Anakin speaks up.

"Yes. You always have the same facial expressions when we say something you don't like." He says with a laugh.

I sigh as I roll my eyes before I punch Anakin in the shoulder.

"Ouch! My arm!" He says as he places his hand on his shoulder.

I widen my eyes before putting my hands in front of my mouth, feeling sorry.

"The one not made of metal?" I say.

Anakin suddenly smiled before taking off his glove, revealing his metal arm where I had hit him. I then lowered my hands, rolling my eyes before speaking up.

"You scared me, you idiot."

Anakin starts to laugh before putting his glove back on. We then begin to walk down the hallway towards the exit. The jedi temple was a beautiful place, the ceiling height was very tall, it was at least twenty times my height. The columns were also big.

"I'm so happy to have you back. Anakin said, breaking the silence.

I looked up quietly, seeing that Anakin was looking down at the floor, his head slightly lowered, his hands behind him.

"Did you miss me that much?

- You have no idea."

He lifts his head after answering me, inking his gaze into mine. I smile shyly before turning my head in front of me, lowering my eyes. He had missed me. I wondered if he was playing a bad joke or if he was sincere. We reached the exit.

"Are you going straight home or do you still have something to do?" He asks.

I raise my eyes looking around before speaking up.

"I was planning on going out tonight, walking around and stopping at a bar."

Anakin nods his head up and down before turning back to a small ship.

"I know a nice bar not far from here...

- I'll follow you then." I reply.
