Anakin's POV

I held my wife's hand tightly as Suzy came in with sad eyes.

"What's wrong?" I asked her, not looking up.

She hesitated, but answered. "The Council has ordered me to go on a mission to Mon Cala. A Karkarodon, one of Riff Tamson's people, wants to take over the planet and wipe out the entire population and claim it as their own."

I turned slightly before gazing at Ahsoka again. "By yourself?"

"Yes, Master Skywalker. Alex, Sam and I as well as Master Kenobi and Master Barriss."

I lurched up to my feet. "You are not going alone!" I growled, staring at her solemnly.

"To Mon Cala, she will go. With Master Kenobi, she will. Skywalker, stay here you must." Yoda announced from the doorway.

I glared at him and at Suzy coldly. "She cannot go out there alone!"

Suzy crossed her arms. "So, you're telling me you think I can't take care of myself? That I'm too weak? To small? To stubborn? To reckless?" She questioned.

I shook my head. "No, no. It's-."

"I can make my own decisions! You're not my master!" She screeched.

I stared at her in shock. She never yelled at me like this before.

"Ahsoka is. Not you!" With that she stormed out of the room.

My anger flared and I started flinging this around the room, flipping a table, throwing magazines all over the place. But I was careful around Ahsoka. I stopped and realized Master Yoda was still here. "Leave me alone." I whispered, shaking.

He did immediately, leaving me by myself with Ahsoka. I gaped outside, seeing the forest mist. Tears invading my eyes as I saw Suzy leave and head towards Mon Cala.

Senator Chuchi came in carefully and eyed me with curious eyes. She cradled my daughter in her arms. "Satine has a meeting today and so do I. I was wondering if you can-?"

I bobbed my head. "Of course, Senator. She's my daughter anyways. Go to your meeting." She handed me my daughter as I eyed my baby with awe. "'Sides I need to spend time with her."

Chuchi bowed and so did I. Soon after she left, leaving me with my family. I was just missing one more…

I sat on the rocking chair (Satine's gift to Ahsoka) and gaped at my daughter. Skylar was staring at me with wide, loving eyes. She reached up to touch my cheek as I smiled. I held her tiny silky hand and pressed it gently against my cheek. I laughed softly as she showed me her toothless smile.

After an hour of looking at each other, my Sky was slowly drifting to sleep. I cooed her the song that I sang to her mother when she had trouble sleeping. Ahsoka told me that I sing beautifully but I think I sing like crap. Though, Skylar smiled again and she leaned her small head against my chest. As I sang she began to drift to sleep.

"White walls surround us

No light will touch your face again

Rain taps the window

As we sleep among the dead

Days go on forever

But I have not left your side

We can chase the dark together

If you go then so will I

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

Cold light above us

Hope fills the heart

And fades away

Skin white as winter

As the sky returns to grey

Days go on forever

But I have not left your side

We can chase the dark together

If you go then so will I

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

I keep holding onto you

But I can't bring you back to life

Sing the anthem of the angels

Then say the last goodbye

You're dead alive, you're dead alive,

You're dead alive, you're dead alive.

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

I keep holding onto you

But I can't bring you back to life

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye."

My daughter finally fell asleep in my arms. As I gently began to place her in her crib, I heard Ahsoka grumble and say my name.

"Ani….?" She groaned.

I spun around, my eyes widen.
