Vader looked on at the blackness of deep space only thinking about his needed revenge upon the one who he felt ruined his life and never ending pain of his scared and chared body, however he was soon interrupted by the captain of the newly constructed Star Destroyer and Barris who awaits her lords words.

Captain: My Lord. The Third Sister is here. It is my great honor to be invited aboard, Lord Vader.

Vader: I am not interested in civilities. Where is he?

Captain: The tracker worked. He's arriving on Jabiim as we speak.

Vader looked at Barris who had her head slightly tilted towards the floor not dare look Vader in the eyes as a cold shiver went down her spine.

Vader: You have done well. Inquisitor. Set a course, Captain. We leave for Jabiim at once.

Meanwhile on Jabiim a memory that had been constantly flowing through Y/n's mind even in his dreams started to surface. once more he stood in the training room with Anakin who was trying to keep him occupied after Ahsoka left the order along with the fact some of the council had filed an injunction and investigation into Y/n's relationship with Ahsoka, along with keeping him from leaving the temple. Anakin had thought the best thing for him was to give him the support he only knew how. Training.

Anakin: Are you ready?

Y/n: As I'll ever be.

Their lightsabers ignite and quickly clashed with one another in a quick flurry of back and forth, almost evenly matched but both had yet to full exert themselves, however. For Y/n, this was all he had to give. He had lost hope in himself and didn't care if he lost to Anakin who now had the upper foot.

Anakin: This all you got.

He casually smirked.

Y/n: Does it matter...

Anakin sent a wave of flurries pushing Y/n's lightsabers away from himself and dropping to the ground, accepting defeat. Anakin sighed.

Anakin: Let's take a break.

He sat across from Y/n who's eyes remained fixed on the floor not saying a word as Anakin once again sighed trying to think of something to say.

Anakin: Boy... I could go for one of those steaks right about now.

Y/n: Does it get any easier?

Y/n finally spoke. Anakin knew right away what the question was and struggled to find an answer.

Anakin: Truth is Y/n. I thought you two were inseparable. It was a surprise as much as it was to Padme. But. I have hope.

Y/n looked up.

Y/n: Hope?

Anakin: Yeah. I think you'll see her again. Once she sorts everything out. But the question is, until then, are you ready to fight for her?

Y/n: Fight for her?

Anakin stood up and held out a steady hand for Y/n to take.

Anakin: If you can't fight for yourself. Fight for her. Let that be your drive.

Y/n looked up at him and smiled as he took hold of his hand and stood up once more with a defiant purpose. Purpose that he now lacked. Y/n, Ahsoka and Nax had now been preparing to leave when Haja appeared which caught Y/n's interest as he walked slowly towards him.

Y/n: Haja? What are you doing here?

Haja: I had nowhere else to go. Right after I saw you, I got into a fight with that scary lady Inquisitor. Now, I'm wanted by the Empire. But now, I know what it feels like being a real Jedi.
