Star Wars: The Clone Wars--The Chosen One

Chapter Seven: The Prophesy

A/N: This may be a short chapter.

Anakin wasn't sure which was worse. Having no idea how to control his new powers within the Force or knowing the missing part of the prophesy may contain something about his destiny he wouldn't like. But as Obi Wan always told him...try to have faith. And boy was Anakin trying to have faith in this whole predicament about the missing part of this prophesy.

As Anakin followed a few paces behind his master, Ace dropped back to walk beside him. It was really weird because he didn't speak for a few minutes and when he did, Anakin found himself blushing a bit. He glanced at Ace and took in his appearance. Ace was wearing his usual Republic fighter uniform-which was still black and it looked great on his body. His hair was messy and he had this look in his eyes that Anakin couldn't quite place. His lips looked really soft and he wondered what would happen if he kissed him--

Bad Anakin. Bad, Anakin scolded himself and looked away from Ace, who was still babbling on about something.

"Anakin?" He looked glanced at him and blinked. "Are you okay? You've been extremely quiet."

Anakin nods. "Just...thinking."

"That's never a good thing." Ace joked and Anakin can't help a small laugh from escaping his lips and everyone glanced over at him. "What about?"

Anakin became quiet again and sighed. "This prophesy....I'm scared." He admitted.

Ace patted his shoulder. "That's normal. This thing....this prophesy is telling you how you're supposed to do something. How you're the one who's supposed to save the galaxy and restore balance to the force or something." Ace paused fir a heartbeat before he added, "But what they don't understand is that you make your own destiny. Not some old wise man from eons ago, who probably didn't even know this would happen. So if it says you go to the dark side, then screw that! If it says you die, screw that too. You choose what happens in your future, not some bedtime story prophesy."

Anakin let his words sink in and once again, realized that what Ace said was true. And that was why Anakin liked him more everyday. Anakin smiled at him and said,

"Those are some very wise words, Ace Doreltès."

Ace did a small bow and smirked. "Thank you, Master Skywalker. But just to warn you....I like to top."

Anakin choked on invisible water and stared at Ace, a horrified expression on his beautiful face. His reaction caused Ace to snort and laugh out loud, making everyone stop and turn around. Master Windu and Obi Wan gave them disapproving looks.

"Is there something funny, Anakin?" Obi Wan asked.

Anakin forced himself to unglue his eyes from Ace so he could look at Obi Wan. "I-uh-no master." Anakin cleared his throat, clearly flustered as his face was seriously red right now.

"I think Ace just said 'I like to top.'" Jett said with a smirk which only resulted in Anakin's face turning more red as he looked at the ground, shuffling his feet. The awkward tension in the room only rose when Obi Wan said his name and Ace growled.

"Fuck you, Jett. Mind your damn buisness."

Jett narrowed his eyes. "Excuse me? So it's my fault you're a horny bastard now?!" Ace clenched his fists and Jett added, "You're just angry because you can't get Anakin Skywalker in your bed."

Anakin could tell Ace was going to punch Jett in the face and pushing his embarrassment aside he grabbed Ace and pulle him back, only to recieve a right hook to his jaw. Jett had came at Ace as he had pulled him backwards and instead of hitting Ace, he hit Anakin.

Anakin stumbled back, falling on the floor and holding his jaw while Ace seemed to only get angrier and he launched himself at Jett. Aviana and Mekhi yelled at them to stop while Anakin felt himself start to get angry. He started to panic too and the room began to shake and shudder as he sat on the floor, breathing deeply through his nose at a fast pace.

Obi Wan, Yoda and Windu were the only ones who noticed what was happening. Windu and Obi rushed over to him, kneeling in front of him trying to calm him down. Obi tried to reach through their bond to push calming sensations through it to him but nothing was working.

Windu stood up and shouted loudly at the two boys who were fighting and the girl and boy who were trying to break it up. "ENOUGH!"

Everyone stopped and came to attention, placing their hands behind their back while Padmè and Senator Palpatine stood in front of them. Anakin heard everything but he was breathing hard and couldn't calm down; the room was still shaking and shuddering and Obi Wan rested his hands on his shoulders.

"Anakin....Anakin! It's over. Calm down, youngling. It's over." Obi Wan tried desperately but it still wasn't working.

Ace sighed and left his position and made his way over to Anakin, kneeling in front of him. "Ani, it's okay. I'm alright."

And miraculously, Anakin began to settle down. He wondered if what he did hurt anyone. He hoped not. Anakin sqeezed his eyes and said, "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I-I couldn't stop..."

"Emotionally triggered, your powers are." Yoda told him.

Anakin still shook his head. "I could have hurt someone...what is the prophesy? What's the missing part?"

And Windu and Yoda explained everything.
