Dream
"Strike him down (y/n)!" Dooku screamed at me as I held both my red lightsabers to Anakin's neck in an 'x' formation.

For some reason I was hesitating, his blue ocean eyes were staring into mine with a look of heart break? "You don't have to do this (y/n), I can feel the conflict in you. I know there's good in you, come back." I began to notice he was crying as he said these words to me. I tighten my grip on my sabers, I have to kill him, it's my mission it's what I was trained for. Here he is in front of me and I can kill him so easily, just with one swift movement. But then why couldn't I? There was another voice screaming inside of my head telling me to drop my weapons, to not hurt him.

It was my voice. I had my own voice in my head telling me to do two different things. Like the light inside of me was fighting with the dark.

"Kill him now, or I will kill you." Dooku spoke menacingly and he ignited his saber as he said these words.

I can't do it.

"No.." the word escaped my mouth in a low tone that I'm surprised he heard me. I dropped my sabers and fell to my knees in front of Anakin. "I'm so sorry." Tears began to fill my eyes as I looked into his beautiful ones.

Within seconds I felt burning pain in my abdomen and I looked down to see a red light poking out of me.

Dooku stabbed me through the back

"No!" Anakin screamed before everything around me faded into black.

I quickly shot up from my bed in a panic and grabbed my stomach. 'It was just a dream' I told myself. I put my head in my hands and slowed my breathing down.

What the hell was that? That was unlike any dream that I've ever had before. I couldn't get the image of Anakin out of my mind, the pain in his eyes.

I went back to his room earlier like I said I would and we talked for hours, he told me about how his mother died and I could feel there was something more about that that he was hiding. I found it strange that he was confiding in me, a stranger. But he also told me that as a Jedi he's not allowed to have these feelings so I guess I understood why he would go to someone who is not a Jedi. I also understood him in a way, as a Sith I'm not allowed to feel certain things either. The only feelings I've had since Dooku took me in was anger, hate, and fear. I wasn't allowed to feel happy or to love. He always told me those emotions were for the weak.

I was in Anakins room until the sun went down and when I left he hugged me and whispered thank you into my ear, It was unexpected but it made my body feel like it was on fire. I didn't understand the feeling, it made me nervous so I ended the hug quicker than he would have liked. Maybe it's because I've never been hugged before. I've never been shown kindness.

A blinking across my room pulled me from my thoughts, it was the holopad, I was getting a call from Dooku.

I quickly got up to answer it and the holographic image of my master appeared and I couldn't help but have my mind go back to that dream. Feeling the burning pain from where my master stabbed me.

"Hello master." I bow to him and I sounded groggy from just waking up.

"(y/n) it's time for your next step." He says ignoring my greeting, "There is a ship at the docking station that will be departing at sunrise to take medical supplies to the clone medic station on Naboo. It will be in dock four. You will take the bomb and place it inside I will detonate it once it reaches the Naboo station." He instructs and I walk over to the closet where I have my bags and pull out the bomb.

I knew there was going to be a need for this but I wasn't sure when or on what. "Of course master." I smile at him but I feel a sense of, guilt? I quickly push the unfamiliar feeling aside and hide the bomb inside of the coat I just put on.

"Sunrise is in 2 hours, that bomb better be on board when it leaves the hangar (y/n) or there will be consequences." He threatens me.

"It will be done." I bow to him and he hangs up without a goodbye.

(A/N this is a short chapter but it will be the only short one!)
