PROLOGUE
He was surrounded by dense fog; so dense, that he could see nothing around him.
"It's time Ani..." His Mother's voice called to him, "You have to come."
Anakin walked towards her voice, "Come where?..." He frowned, shaking his head. "I don't understand."
"You have to come," his Mother's voice called again, and the fog cleared for a moment; long enough for him to see her silhouette in the distance.
"Mum..." Anakin started running towards her, the fog billowed around him; obscuring his mother from his sight. "No! Mum, wait...!"
Her voice was fading as it reached him, but he still made out her words. "... You have to come home..."
Anakin jerked awake, his chest heaving as he shook his head; that was every night this week, every night, he had the same dream - and when he woke, the feeling was stronger; there was somewhere he needed to be...
And he needed to go now.
Sitting up, Anakin threw back his sheets, and pushed himself to his feet; striding out of his bedroom, towards the hanger. He couldn't wait any longer, couldn't wait for the Council's permission; every second he waited, the feeling intensified, growing more insistent, more urgent - if he waited any longer, it would drive him mad.
"I thought you had agreed to wait?"
Obi-wan's voice made him pause, sighing, Anakin turned to face him. "I can't wait anymore," he said impatiently. "The longer I wait, the stronger it gets." Right now, it felt like he was being ripped apart; like something was trying to drag him away.
Obi-wan frowned, his face creased with concern. "You're sure this feeling isn't... Dangerous?"
Anakin nodded, that was the one thing he was sure of. "It doesn't feel hostile or threatening," he said slowly; his eyes closing as he focused on what he was feeling. "It's... Welcoming."
Obi-wan's expression was thoughtful, as he stared at Anakin; then he nodded, as he came to a decision. "Well then, we'd better get a move on."
Anakin blinked at him, eyes widening in shock. "You're coming with me?"
"Of cause he is," Ahsoka smiled as she joined them. 'And so am I."
Anakin frowned, his gaze flicking from Obi-wan to Ahsoka. "Were you two watching me?" It was the only way they could both have been outside his room; they had been waiting for him.
Obi-wan shrugged, smiling at Anakin. "We knew you'd decide to leave at some point_"
"And we wanted to make sure we were with you, when you did." Ahsoka finished, grinning at her Master.
Anakin smiled, shaking his head; he hadn't been aware that he was so obvious.
x
As they left Coruscant, Anakin frowned; a problem that he hadn't thought of, suddenly coming to mind. He glanced at Obi-wan, "How do you follow a feeling?" It wasn't like it was telling him to 'go here', it was just an urgent need to be 'somewhere' - but he had no idea where he was meant to go.
Ahsoka couldn't hold back her laugh, she shook her head as Anakin shot her a halfhearted glare. "Sorry, I just tried to imagine what you would have done if you'd gone alone."
Anakin scowled, "Not helpful Snips."
Obi-wan ignored Ahsoka's comment, and placed his hands on Anakin's shoulders. "Close your eyes..." He told Anakin, gently instructing him. "Focus on the feeling, and let the Force guide you."
Anakin closed his eyes, and took a deep breath, concentrating on the feeling; then he reached out, opening himself to the Force. He gasped in shock as the feeling intensified, pulling at him, leading him...
Obi-wan and Ahsoka both stiffened at Anakin's shocked gasp, then his face went blank; and when his eyes opened, they were unfocused and unseeing.
"Well, apparently we're going somewhere." Ahsoka said, watching as Anakin reached for the ship's console, entering coordinates into the navicomputer.
Obi-wan nodded, shaking his head as Anakin activated the hyperdrive. "We still don't know where we're going though."
Anakin relaxed, and he blinked; frowning as he looked at Obi-wan and Ahsoka. "What happened?"
Obi-wan's eyebrows rose, then he shrugged. "You entered the coordinates, while you were in a trance."
Anakin let out a relieved sigh, and closed his eyes as he realised the feeling's intensity and urgency had suddenly diminished.
"Master_"
"Anakin_"
Ahsoka and Obi-wan spoke together, both worried; Anakin raised a hand, cutting them off. "I'm fine," he said, opening his eyes. "The feeling just... lessened."
Ahsoka cocked her head; whatever her Master had been feeling, had been 'screaming' at him for weeks. "Why would it lessen now?"
"I think it's because I'm going to 'wherever' I need to go," Anakin told her. "It eased the moment we went into hyperspace."
"Now that we have the coordinates, perhaps we should see where we're going?" Obi-wan suggested, bringing up a map of their course through hyperspace...
They all stared at the map in shock, Obi-wan raised his eyebrows. "Apparently, we're going into uncharted territory."
"Literally," Ahsoka said, gaping at the map; wherever they we going, was so far out in Wild Space, that it hadn't been explored.
As Anakin stifled a yawn, Obi-wan smiled, and gently pulled him to his feet. "Well, since your feeling has abated, you should get some rest."
Anakin shook his head, "I'm fine_"
Obi-wan said, folding his arms. "Both Ahsoka and I can feel how exhausted you are, " Anakin had told them himself that his 'dreams' were so vivid and intense, that they didn't allow him any rest.
Anakin sighed, rolling his eyes as he flash a grin. "One day you're going to remember that I'm not your padawan anymore, and stop trying to ordering me around."
"One day perhaps," Obi-wan agreed with a smile. "Until then..." He smiled, chuckling as he propelled Anakin out of the cockpit. "... Go to bed, Anakin."
Anakin covered his mouth as he yawned again, and his shoulders sagged. "Fine..." Stifling another yawn, Anakin sighed. "Wake me when we arrive."
"Of cause," Obi-wan agreed, smiling as Anakin walked away. He reached his sleeping quarters in a matter of seconds, sitting on his bed, Anakin sighed and slowly laid back; falling asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
"You're coming..." His Mother's voice called to him gently, less urgently than his other dreams.
Anakin nodded, peering through the light mist; towards the sound of his Mother's voice. "I still don't understand, Mum..." He frowned, shaking his head, "... Where are we going?"
The mist cleared, and he saw flashes of huge mountains, grassy plains, lakes and waterfalls, and a huge golden walled palace, with silver towers, topped with intricate spiraling crystal spires. It felt so familiar, like he had been there before...
"Home..." His Mother said, her voice fading. "... You're going home."
x
Obi-wan smiled as he watched Anakin sleep; he'd followed Anakin to his sleeping quarters a few minutes after he left, to make sure his former padawan was actually resting. Anakin's brow creased, and he muttered softly in his sleep; Obi-wan only made out one word... "Mum." ... Frowning, Obi-wan hesitated, debating whether to wake Anakin or not. Then Anakin relaxed, his breathing easing into peaceful slumber.
Obi-wan smiled as he re-entered the cockpit, "Well, he's finally sleeping." Though he didn't know how long that would last. Shaking his head, Obi-wan sighed activating the ship's comlink.
Ahsoka frowned at him, "What are you doing?"
"Contacting the Council," Obi-wan replied with a shrug. "They'll find out we've left sooner or later, and they should find out from us."
Ahsoka nodded, biting her lip. "We aren't going to be in trouble for leaving without permission, are we?"
"No." Obi-wan shook his head, "At the most we'll just be ordered to come back."
As the hologram of Master Yoda, Master Windu and Plo Koon appeared, Obi-wan Bowed his head in respect. "Masters,"
"Left you have." Yoda said, with a concerned frown.
"Yes Anakin, Ahsoka and I are..." Obi-wan paused, shrugging. "... Well we don't know where we are going, just that it is in Wild Space." Obi-wan told the council.
"Wild Space?" Master Plo Koon asked.
"I thought we agreed that we wait until we were sure that Skywalker's feeling isn't a trap," Master Mace Windu said as he shook his head.
"We did," Obi-wan agreed. "But Anakin said the feeling was getting so strong, that it felt like it was torn apart"
"How is he now?" Plo Koon asked.
"Better now, he is finally resting, getting some sleep." Obi-wan took a deep breath, "Anakin also said that the feeling lessened as soon as we went into hyperspace." Obi-wan said, glancing back towards the sleeping quarters as he heard Anakin talking in his sleep again.
"Send us the coordinates, so we can meet you there." Master Windu said, leaning forwards.
Obi-wan shook his head, "Master Windu I believe that it would be safer to have only Ahsoka and Myself to be with him, just incase it turns out to be a trap."
"But if it does turn out to be a trap you'll be_"
"No go alone they must, willed by the force it is." Master Yoda said stopping Mace mid sentence.
"Are you sure Master Yoda? It could be safer, if we sent a fleet to back them up." Master Koon said, his tone filled with concern.
"No, only they must go." Yoda said, as he meditated through the force.
"It is settled then," Master Windu sighed, "Keep us updated of the situation."
"Of course Master Windu and thank you." Obi-wan said as he bowed his head in respect.
"May the force be with you." Yoda said before he disconnected the holo.
Ahsoka frowned, looking towards her Master's sleeping quarters; he was still talking in his sleep. "Shouldn't we wake him?"
"No, he needs rest..." Obi-wan smiled as Anakin fell silent, "... His dreams don't seem to be as 'demanding' now," hopefully he would be able to get some well deserved rest.

"Anakin?"
Obi-wan's voice was accompanied by a hand gently shaking his shoulder. Anakin groaned, turning away from him; he had finally been sleeping peacefully.
"Anakin...?" Obi-wan shook his shoulder again, "... We're coming out of hyperspace."
Sighing Anakin turned to face him, "How long was I asleep?"
"Almost three days," Obi-wan said with a smile.
Anakin binked up at him in shock, as he sat up. "Three days?" He felt like he'd only been asleep a few hours.
Obi-wan smiled, guiding Anakin to the cockpit. "Ahsoka and I decided to let you sleep."
"Thank you," Anakin said, stretching slowly; he felt so much better, and now that they were 'here' - wherever 'here' was - the feeling had almost disappeared.
As the ship came out of hyperspace, a huge pale green planet loomed ahead of them. Obi-wan grinned at Anakin, "I guess we're about to find out what all the fuss is about."
Ahsoka laughed, flashing a grin at the other two Jedi. "Knowing you, it'll be something life altering Skyguy."
Anakin chuckled, shrugging innocently. "Well at least I'm not boring."
Obi-wan couldn't hold back his laughter as he shook his head, "No one could ever accuse you of that Anakin."
x
Anakin gaped in shock as he saw the planet around him; it was just like his dream... Only more impressive, but his dream had been broken fragments, this was the complete awe inspiring view; it was a huge mountainous planet, with lush green grassy plains, large clear lakes and waterfalls - it only had one giant city, which was built in the middle of a valley formed by twelve monolithic mountains. And in the middle of the city, was the palace - exactly as it had been in his dream.
Obi-wan and Ahsoka stood beside him, their eyes wide, equally as shocked as Anakin. Shaking his head, Anakin piloted the ship towards the city. A few minutes later he touched down on the massive landing platform, and they saw black clad guards approaching the ship.
"They don't look very friendly," Ahsoka said nervously.
"Well, we weren't exactly invited here." Obi-wan pointed out, it was understandable that the guards would be suspicious.
Standing, Anakin took a deep breath. "Let's go meet our new friends." With any luck, the reason for his 'feeling' would all be explained very soon. Obi-wan and Ahsoka followed behind him as he lowered the ramp, and walked off the ship.
The moment he appeared, the guards froze; they stared at him for a moment, before one of the whispered something and ran towards the palace.
"What was that about?" Anakin asked, glancing at Obi-wan, as the other two guards came towards them.
"I'm not sure..." The reaction from the guards had been surprising, and confusing. "... but I have a feeling we're about to find out."
As the guards reached them, they bowed low; their eyes locked on Anakin. As they straightened, the lead guard smiled at Anakin. "My apologies, Sir." He said respectfully, "Could you and your friends come with us please?"
