(Y/N) POV:

The trip back to Coruscant was long and quiet. Aayla would have ridden with you, but it would seem, Windu did not like that Idea. 'Other jedi duties' he says. What an asshole. You did not mind the quiet, but it had been a long time since you were alone on the ship.

Not even Shmi was there, she rode with her son as he was excited to introduce her to the rest of the clones. The cold, silent halls of the ship were interrupted by your night screams as the nightmares had returned.

The silence was worth it though, as you sit in the cockpit, the view of Coruscant came upon your visage. The large grey and orange orb continuing to be bright as hell, in the darkness. As you get closer to the republic yard, Aayla contacts you on the communicator, directing you to the Jedi hangar.

You fly to your new parking spot, cruising through the midday skyline. Seeing the large, square like bleak grey building and slowly follow the docking procedures. Before you leave, you opt to suit up in your armour. You don't take any of your weapons.

As you exit your room, you notice that, in Shmi's room she had a picture of her, Anakin and senator Amidala. You walk over and pick it up, as you look to the side, you notice how she had fully decked out her room.

Walking through the hall through to the docking ramp, you notice more of Shmi's work within the ship. Looking how certain decorations, made the ship brighter, a lot of bold blues and silver, in keeping with your color scheme.

I must make a note to bring this up with Shmi later.

As you walk down the ramp, you look to see the other Jedi star fighters, small yet versatile ships of varying colors, however the colors seem to match their pilots. The other jedi and ship engineers and clone security near the exits.

You walk down the ramp and begin to walk to the exit, going to your quarters within the temple. Through the large hallways, the stone architecture and red carpeting, there were many people walking around.

Guess this place is never not busy.

You pass Jaro Tapal, who could be see speaking with Master Koon and a small red-haired boy with beige and brown robes. They stood in a triangle, the little bot standing near Jaro with his hands behind his back, mirroring his master.

As you walk closer, you open your mask upon noticing Jaro has seen you. he brightens, bringing with it both Plo and the boy's attention, Jaro straightens up as he turns to you, calling you over by waving.

"Hello again friend." He cheers.

"Hello Master Tapal." you chuckle, seeming in a good mood.

"You seem to be in good spirits." He says, placing his hands on his hips.

"I take it the mission on Ryloth was a success?" Plo chimes in.

"In more ways than one." you cockily express.

"(Y/N), This is my padawan. Padawan, introduce yourself." Jaro places a hand on the boys back, gently pushing him to you.

You look down to see the young jedi, he was nervous and seemed to be hesitant of you at first, you crouch down to his height in an attempt to ease the boy, he reaches his hand out, as well of pushing his chest out, in a fit of confidence.

"Hello Sir, my name is Kal...Kestis."

"Well...Kal, I'm (Y/N) (L/N) ...nice to meet you" You both grasp each other's forearms and shake, "I trust your keeping your master out of trouble?" you joke.

"As much as I can...at least..." He jokes, before becoming nervous, his confidence deflating again.

He steps back near his master, his body slumping, seemingly having lost his confidence. his master, looking down, looks back to him, chuckling before resting his hand on his back in a caring and protective manner.
