As much as Anakin likes to spend his time around Padme, his wife, right now he was bored out of his minds. Him and Ahsoka were sent by the council to protect Padme and the Queen because of serious death treaths. Threats that can only be made by the Separatists.

Anakin leaned against the wall as he was watching Padme and the Queen interacting.

"Are you alright Master. I sense something in you" Ahsoka asked where she was beside him.

"I'm just being alert. And bored."

"Of course you are" the girl said and she rolled her eyes.

"Hey..."

Before he could say anything else a laser bolt had gone through the window in a wall. "Get down", Anakin shouted and he activated his lightsabers. "Come Snips", he said and he jumped through the window.

Ahsoka looked at the two women. "Get away from here and stay in a safe place away from windows", she said before she followed her master.

Master and Padawan were running side by side in the search for the shooter and defecting the laser bolts in the same time.

"There" Anakin said as he spotted the shooter who was most likely a bounty hunter on a rooftop building.

The two continued to use the lightsabers to defend themselves and used force jump to jump on the building. Seeing that the hunter threw his weapon away and made a dash to escape the Jedi.

Though luck was not on his side because immediately he was trying to jump on the building the two Jedi were in front of him.

"Nice try buddy. But you are not going anywhere"

The hunter gritted his teeths and he raised his hands in surrender.

Anakin and Ahsoka smiled at each other glad that they manged to catch up the bounty hunter without any bumps. But apparently they enjoyed their quick victory to fast. Because immediately after a dart was thrown from an unknown person and the shooter dropped death.

Anakin and Ahsoka ignited their swords again and looked around in search for the mysterious person.

A bomb was thrown on the rooftop and it enveloped everything in smoke.

"That's doesn't not look good", The Torgruta said.

"Don't lose your focus" Anakin said. Soon he winced when he felt a pick on his neck.

"Master?" Ahsoka asked when she heard her Master. Then she winced as well something hit her in the head.

When the smoke disappeared the bounty hunter body was no more. And on the roof were only the uncouncious bodied of Anakin and Ahsoka.

Ahsoka groaned when she started to regain consciousness and she rubbed her head. "Master?" she said without receiving an answer and that was worrying her. "Anakin?"

The girl looked around the rooftop until she spotted Anakin tunics. Though he found it strange to see them so loose.

She frowned and approached the body. "An..." Ahsoka stopped in her tracks and gasped. In front of her where her Master was supposed to be was a young boy, a youngling, with long blonde hair who was swimming in her master clothes. The boy was still unconscious.

Ahsoka was frozen wondering if that boy was indeed Anakin. She looked around to see if she can feel any danger. No danger was present. The young girl kneeled down and she saw a small red dart in the boy neck. She took it out and looked at it before she put it in a pocket.

"Are you really skyguy?" she asked not expecting any answer. She decided to not waste anymore time so she picked the boy up togheter with the tunics, mesmerized to see how light he was and jumped from the building.

Padme was pacing in a hallway. She hadn't get any news neither from Anakin or Ahsoka after they left after the shooter and she was worried. It had passed more then half an hour. She was alone after she assured the guards that she would be alright and the Queen had left to speek with her advisors.

When the woman her footsteps she turned around and smiled when she saw the Torgruta girl. But her smile died down when she saw the bundle in her arms and from her distance she could see clearly the familiar tuft of blonde hair.

She immediately rushed to the girl and looked at the bundle in her arms. Her eyes widened when she recognized the boy. He was looking exactly like when she had first meet him on Tatooine. "What happened?"

"Me and Anakin were following the shooter and when we caught him he was killed by his partner or the one who hired him. Then me and Anakin were knocked unconscious and when I woke up I found this boy."

She said and adjusted the boy a little in her arms. "Padme. Is he..?"

"Yes. He's Anakin when he was 9. Do you know what caused this?. *

" There was a dart in his neck. I think the toxin in it had made him like this. "
The woman nodded." We should go to the medical room and maybe they can scan the dart."

" We do respect mylady. I think it's more suitable if our Jedi doctors would look at it "

" Very well. But you two should still be checked up. "

" I'm alright. Just sore. And I need to contact Master Obi-Wan. Can you take him there if there's no problem. "

" Of course it's not", Padme said and she picked the boy from Ahsoka arms gently and she nodded sign that the girl can leave..

Ahoska nodded and she walked to her temporary quarters and Padme looked down at the boy who was supposed to be her husband. She sighed before she started to walk towards the medical room making a mental note to send one of the handmaiden to find some more suitable clothes for a 9 year old child.

Meanwhile Ahsoka made the call towards Obi-Wan. Soon enough his hologram appeared in her room. "Ahsoka. Nice to hear from you. Do you have any news?"

"Yes. I have. The shooter was dead and I there's a chance that Padme and the Queen were not in trouble anymore"

"But?" Obi-Wan asked knowing that there was more to tell. He can feel it.

"Me and Anakin were attacked by am unknown person. And... Anakin. He was turned in a 9 year old boy after Padme words"

Obi-Wan eyes widened when he heard that. That was something shocking. Especially since all his years as both Jedi Knight/Master and Padawan, he had never heard of something like that.
