Count Dooku nearly accepted that he was not going to get away with this until he saw Obi-Wan running frantically towards him.
"Anakin!" Obi-Wan called out, but Anakin seemed to ignore him and kept on pushing. "Anakin stop!" he pulled Anakin by the shoulder getting him away from Dooku and the Count just dropped to his knees feeling exhausted, his breathing heavy.
"Let go of me Obi-Wan!" Anakin yelled, his voice full of anger and rage. It nearly gave the chills into Obi-Wan’s spine. He let him go instantly and Anakin walked towards the now standing Count Dooku.
"I'm afraid I have to go now young Skywalker," Dooku smirked at the young Jedi and small shuttle arrived behind him. "until then." he jumped back towards the ship and it quickly flew over the sky.
Anakin cursed under his breath before turning his commlink. "Admiral Yularen," he said. "Count Dooku is getting away in a small shuttle, when he comes to you shoot it down."
A pause came for a moment. "Yes General Skywalker." replied the Admiral. Putting his commlink down he paced back towards the throne room.
"Anakin..." Obi-Wan spoke but Anakin just walked passed him.
"Not now Obi-Wan." Anakin cut him off, irritated.
When they arrived at the throne room, they saw the Palosorians all cheering their victory over the Seperatist as did the clones. Everyone smiled except for Anakin and Obi-wan.
"Master!" Ahsoka ran towards them, her face bright and cheerful. "The Seperatist droids have all been destroyed around Palosoria." she said, but as she got closer she could sense something wrong. She frowned, "What's wrong?"
"Count Dooku got away." Anakin said before Obi-Wan could answer her.
"Again?"
"Yes, Again."
Ahsoka looked at Obi-Wan for confirmation but instead the Jedi master looked down. She wanted to ask what happened but was stopped when Anakin's commlink rang.
"Skywalker." Anakin announced.
"General," the voice of Admiral Yularen spoke. "I'm afraid we've lost Count Dooku sir. He has already jumped through hyperspace."
Anakin pitched the bridge of his nose, clearly irratated. Wherever Count Dooku is now, he will surely invade another planet soon. Meaning this war will never end. "Alright Admiral, thanks." he turned off his commlink and turned to see the King making his way to them.
"My many thanks Master Jedi!" he said smiling. "You have saved Palosoria!"
Anakin faked a smile. "Not us your highness, but 'we'. Without you and your people's support, we would have faced a great loss of our men."
"It has been an honor fighting along side you Master Skywalker, Master Kenobi and Padawan Tano." a gentle voice from behind the king said. They all looked to see Princess Olivia coming towards them.
"The honor is all ours your highnesses." Obi-Wan answered calmly as they bowed.
"Come, we must celebrate our victory with our people, my daughter." the king gestured the princess to him. "You are welcome to join us Master Jedi. You and your men deserve it after all."
Obi-Wan simply shook his head. "We appreciate the offer your highness but we must get back to our cruiser. There is still a war we must return to."
The king looked down and sighed. "Of course, Master Jedi. Please, if you ever need my help you only need to ask." the king said admirably. Then turned around and left them.
