         Ahsoka's legs dashed across the crusty grass with another screech, scraping the signs of winter onto her fingers, letting it melt on to her palms. Anakin followed shortly behind, letting out a huff. He REFUSED to believe that he was getting old, or older--he was the Chosen One! Wasn't there some guarantee for never ending attractiveness?

      Once Ahsoka had reached where she wanted, (which actually wasn't that far away, only making Anakin more depressed,) she turned around. Glitter stained her fingers and the ground...

*MYSTERIOUS bag...I have no idea where it came from, I swear*

       Anyway, she basically made the entire trail she had taken look like an image of a Star Wars themed Candy Land. Minus the candy.

"CALLIEEEE!!!!" 

         Obi Wan finally reached the very top, chewing his tongue slightly as he restrained himself of his doubt. This little field trip was a mistake, and he deeply regretted telling the Council it was a good idea. Educational? What the blast was I thinking? He checked the cup of eggnog he had clasped his fist around, wondering if Ahsoka had managed to spike his water to faze his intelligence. 

"Clearly," he muttered, sauntering after the depressed brunette.

        Ahsoka's hand wrapped around herself either way, jogging her way towards what looked like a small cottage. It's house had an odd looking roof that neither Jedi hadn't recalled seeing ever, with large windows and a cobblestone path. A pair of eyes peered from behind a long, red drape, disappearing as the sound of footsteps clattered towards the front door. Anakin stopped in his steps, his stomach contracting in a few mere seconds. A blur of colors collided into him, wrapping such a force around him he wheezed.

It was the most terrifying monster he had ever encountered before in his entire life as a Jedi.

    Their eyes were a bright blue, with lashes that awkwardly jutted above them. Their anatomy looked similar to his own--no weird features like twenty eyes or tentacles sprouting from their head. However, it was a bit smaller than him, wearing a large pair of glasses. Long rows of a cage trapped it's teeth, leaving the creature slurring. Anakin assumed it was female by the way it talked, but the odd contraption on it's teeth made it's voice sound off.

   "OMG OMG OMG OMG! HE'S REALLLLL!"

         Obi Wan reached for his lightsaber, abruptly turning it on. He looked at the crazed girl holding Anakin in her tight hold, squeezing the air from the poor man's lung with a scream. Her voice inclined louder and louder as she hugged tighter.

"AHSOKA, THANK YOU! THIS IS THE BEST GIFT EVER!"

       Her eyes bulged as she took a long whiff of the Jedi. She involuntarily thought the truth--he smells like freaking gum drops. Looking over her shoulder, her hold didn't loosen. She had the same crazed look as the Tortuga, creeping Anakin out to the point it was unsettling. This new creature was new, and he certainly was thoroughly freaked out by it.

It was a fangirl.
