Aris POV

"I have to get her off the planet," I told the medical droid,

"Miss Lee is too weak to move," I had given the droid my fake name as Violets real one,

"But-" something moved on the screen. I looked at the camera outside of Violets room;

Clones... and Windu

I lept out of the room, "Windu, what are you doing?" I questioned,

"This is for the Republic," he told me. Violet's room's door opened and the clones went in. Nothing happened for a few seconds but then Violet was dragged out.

I wanted to run after her and rescue her but I couldn't. I could be taken with her as well or worse.

"Aris, are you ok?" Obi-Wan asked softly as Violet and the clones rounded the corner,

I nodded slowly. I wanted to cry, but I kept my emotions in check, numbly staring at where Violet had disappeared. I should've never confronted the Council. Obi-Wan held me to his chest until I pulled away. I began to walk slowly through the building. I made it to a speeder and went back to the Temple. As I walked toward my room Anakin and Ahsoka ran up to me,

"Aris, are you alright?" Anakin asked, walking alongside me,

"We heard about what happened, Master," Ahsoka told me.

I nodded slightly, "I don't want to talk about it," I told them. They nodded and backed off. I went to my room and sat on my bed. I imagined Violet, sitting in a cell, a broken shoulder and broken trust. I began to meditate, it was easier to sense her since she was still on the planet,

"I'm sorry, Violet," I said through the force, "I never meant for this to happen, I was just trying to protect you," Violet said nothing back for a while but eventually,

"I know," she answered simply, I smiled sadly,

"Remember the time you pushed me into the Temple fountain," I told her,

"Yes," she replied, "And then you pulled me in with you, our Master's were furious," I could almost hear her laughter.

"And the time we started a food fight when we were younglings," I laughed slightly at the memory,

"I still think we were right," she replied,

"Me too," I chuckled slightly, replaying the memory in my mind.

"It's not my fault humans are ugly!" Vangli laughed,

"It's not my fault Zabraks haven't got two brain cells to rub together," I snapped back, Vangli gasped,

"Schutta," said her Twi'lek friend. I knew enough Twi'lek to know what she was saying. Violet knew it too, she grabbed her food and threw it at their face. It hit Vangli and her friends. Then it was all-out war. Everyone was throwing food everywhere. The Masters had to pull us away from each other the food. We were in big trouble then.

"You had pretty good aim back then," I told Violet, "What happened?"

"I don't know," she replied, "Good night, Aris,"

"Good night, Violet," I smiled to myself as I watched the sun disappear below the horizon on the city-planet.

- A FEW DAYS LATER -

The day of Violet's trial. I was invited by Obi-Wan to watch. We threw our robes on and covered our faces as we didn't want the Council to see us. We sat in the spectator section. Opposite us, and up was the Jedi Council representatives. We stayed silent as Violet was brought out,
