Another Path (Anakin Skywalker) (#Wattys2016)

Two || It All Begins

Prim's POV

I left the council and was walking down threw the building. I saw a Jedi dressed in black running up to me. Anakin? It was Anakin. He stopped in front of me. "I talked to the Chancellor," he said catching his breath. I sighed and rolled my eyes, "why?"

"To find out his reasons for outcasting you, he said that the dark side was after you and he put you in hiding," he explained.

I hate the Chancellor! I can't believe he lied to Anakin! "PFFT! Hiding alright nearly killed me in the process of 'hiding'! I can't believe that liar," I ranted.

"The Chancellor wouldn't lie to me. How could you say that!" He yelled. We each are angered easily.

"Because he would and I would never lie to you Anakin and you know that deep down," I said and walked away from him.

I left the building and went to the apartment where I lived. I took off my cape and jacket. I left my belt on that held my lightsaber. I took my long hair out of the tight Dutch braid. I combed threw my hair and went to cook myself dinner. Instead I found Count Dooku standing in my kitchen.

"Hello Gold," he growled.

"Dooku, I take it your intentions are to kill me?" I asked. Good thing I kept my belt on.

"I didn't know you could read minds."

"I can't your just very predictable," I said and he drew his lightsaber and began lashing at me. Every trick I had he blocked.

He put his lightsaber back by his shoulder and as he swung at my neck I bended back and cut off his hands. I used the force and grabbed his lightsaber. I put the lightsabers in an "x" form. I placed them by his shoulders. I uncrossed my arms making the lightsabers cut off his head. I dropped the red lightsaber and put mine back in my belt. Without even putting on my cape or jacket or putting my hair back in a braid I left and went to find Anakin.

I found Obi Wan, "Master Kenobi," I shouted getting his attention. "Primrose? What are you doing here so late," he asked me concerned. "Dooku, he came to my apartment I had no choice but to kill him or else I'd be dead," I said. "It's okay young one, is his bidy still there," he questioned. "Yes," I said, "where's Anakin?"

"I believe he's with the Chancellor." No! I don't trust the Chancellor no matter how much power he has.

"I need to talk to him," I sighed.

"You go get him... I'll go take care of Count Dooku," he said.

"Thank you," I smiled and ran out of the Jedi temple and to the Chancellor's office.

~

I ran up to his office and found him and Anakin talking. "Anakin," I said grabbing their attention. "Prim," he said. "I guess I should tell you both that Count Dooku is dead, he tried to kill me and I had no choice but to fully end it," I explained.

"You've done well young Gold," the Chancellor praised.

"Thank you," I said bowing my head.

"I think I will leave with Prim," Anakin said to the Chancellor.

"Okay, goodbye," he said and Anakin came up to me and walked with me to my apartment.

We walked in and found Obi Wan and my apartment looked as if it did before I battle Dooku. "You're back," he said.

"Yes," I replied.

"I don't think it's smart for you to stay here for a while," Obi Wan said.

"Then where will I stay," I said.

"You can stay with me," Anakin said.

"Thank you, that is what I'll do," I said.

"Then it's settled goodnight you two," Obi Wan said exiting my apartment.

"Just give me a moment," I told Anakin. I put on my jacket and cape and grabbed my comb and elastic. I walked outside and found Anakin waiting for me.

We stood on his balcony. I watched the flourishing Coruscant traffic move. "I'll always remember you jumping down through all of the flying cars as we chased Darth Mual when we were younger," I pointed out.

"You remember that," he laughed.

"Of course! I'll never forget that!" I said.

"I'll always remember you doing crazy jumps and flips in the fields," he smiled.

"Oh that's nothing, I jumped like that since the day I was born!" I began yawning, "Hey, where am I sleeping?"

"I didn't really think of that, um... you can take my bed and I'll sleep on the floor," he said.

"It's fine you can have your bed! I'll sleep on the floor or take the other side," I said.

"Okay," he agreed. Was that an agreement or a 'whatever'? I'm taking it as a 'whatever' in disguise because of the tone of his voice. Wait, why do I even care?

I went into his bedroom. Dang! He has a big house! I took off my cape, jacket and boots. I laid down on the right side of the bed and rolled over on my side. I stared at the wall. My eyes were drooping so I let myself begin to fall asleep. I've been so restless lately I let myself fall into a deep sleep.

~

I woke up and saw Anakin sound asleep next to me. I got up and went into his kitchen. I found something to make. I made pancakes from scratch. I made us each three and found syrup and butter and prepared each plate.

I went back in the bedroom and kneeled down beside Anakin. I shook his shoulder softly, "Ani, Ani," I said softly. His eyes flickered open, "morning," I smiled. "Good morning," he said sitting up. "I made pancakes," I told him. "Thank you," he said getting up and putting on a black robe. We each went to the table and began eating.

"These pancakes are probably the best thing I've ever tasted in my entire life," he said.

"You just made my year," I laughed. We are in silence, is that a good sign that the food is good? I hope so!

I finished my food, "I'll go make the bed," I said getting up and putting my plate in the sink. "Are you sure? I can," he said. "No it's fine," I insisted and went and made the bed. I put on my jacket and boots. I combed my hair and braided it. I put on my belt and cape.

Anakin's POV

I waited for Prim to leave my bedroom. She walked out. Today we each have to go to the council meeting. It's to decide whether Prim should remain a Jedi or not since she's been gone so long. I went in my bedroom and put on my Jedi robes. We walked to the Jedi temple and up to the council.

Prim stood in the middle of the room as she explained everything to Master Yoda. A few of the people on the council looked at each other in doubt. "I think she should remain a Jedi," I said. "As do I," Obi-Wan agreed. Pretty soon the whole council agreed. Prim turned around and smiled at me. She left. I could sense her waiting outside the door.

~

The meeting was over I rushed outside and found her waiting. She ran up to me, I held my arms out and she hugged me and I hugged back. "Thank you so much," she squealed. "Don't thank me you deserve," I said. She was wearing black Jedi robes. She jumped up and kissed my cheek. I put my hand on her cheek and she smiled. I could sense this feeling in both of us, are we really falling for each other?
