It was Tomorrow. The day everyone dreaded.

It was the "visit" to Malachor, although nobody wanted to call it that because it sounded like it would be another usual mission. Heh, that was funny.

Arena didn't even know anyone was leaving, she thinks tomorrow is going to be a completely normal day.

Not only was her Family leaving for, however long. She would have no Master and no Mommy to read her books at night.

But boy, Is her life about to change.

Arena woke up on the ground of the Ghost. She was worried at first, but then remembered she turned over and fell last night. She gave a little laugh at the memory.

She got up and made her blanket a cape and put it loosely around her neck. She grabbed her Star Plushie Ez-Bug gave her and ran up the common room, giggling.

She watched the automatic doors open as she skipped in and smirked as she saw Ezra, Ahsoka and Kanan sitting there.

Ahsoka gave a sad grin at Arena, remembering she had to tell her about the Mission.

"Hey, Ladybug, You sleep well?"

Arena kept smirking at her Mom.

"I'm no Ladybug anymore! I am Queen Arena of the Enchanted Forest!" She announced with that cute little 3 year old lisp.

Ahsoka laughed at her Daughter.

"Well then, Queen Arena of the Enchanted Forest, how did you sleep, Your Majesty?" Ahsoka spoke with a smile.

Arena smiled too. "Wonderfully, that's how you say it, right?" She said, fumbling on "Wonderfully" a bit.

Ahsoka nodded. "Baby, come sit over here for a minute." She gestured to the empty seat next to her as Ezra laughed at Arena's little imagination.

Arena bit her bottom lip and ran over to her Mom and hopped into the seat next to her.

"Arena, Ezra, Kanan and I have to tell you something." Ahsoka said with noticeable dread in her voice.

Ezra put a hand on Ahsoka's shoulder, letting her know he would tell her. Ahsoka nodded slowly.

"Little Star, Me, Kanan and your Mom have to go on a mission, for a long time." Ezra spoke.

Arena's grin went away.

"Wha? W-When? For how long?" She said with her small little voice breaking and a frown on a her face.

Ahsoka shut her eyes in emotional pain, not for her, but for her sweet adorable daughter.

"We leave Tomorrow, Arena. We have to go on this. I'm so sorry we didn't tell you sooner." Ezra said sadly.

Arena had a tear stream down her small little cheek as she pushed her blue and white beautifully straight hair behind her ears.

"How long, Ez-Bug..." She said, barely over a whisper with tears going down her face.

Ezra sighed. "We don't know, Arena. It's just going to be longer then normal missions."

He wiped her tears away.

Arena nodded. "But, But why can't I come?"

Ezra wanted to cry at how innocent her question seemed.

"Ladybug, this is a very scary mission, even for us. But, we'll be back, ok?" Ahsoka cut in.

"You all are coming back right, Ez-bug?" She said, looking at Ezra with pleading Blue eyes.
