It's not often that I dream anymore. Nights often pass sleepless for me, but when I do find rest, nightmares plague me.

Except tonight.

Tonight I found myself on a great metal platform, high above what appeared to be a landscape of fire.

Windblown ash teases the edge of my cloak, whispering promises already broken.

Silently I watch the cascades of molten sorrows ebb and flow around me, the heat not affecting me in the least, that is, until a voice breaks the silence.

"You ruined everything."

Finding myself not alone in this smoldering world, I turn. Before me I see a pale figure, like a specter risen from the cinders of my heart. Though of humble stature, his blue eyes burn, moreso than any ember from below.

Unable to escape that soul-searing gaze, I swallow thickly, before the figure comes near, his hair flickering with the amber light of the flames that surround us.

"Why?"

The young one now questions, now merely feet away. Now I am able to see beyond the crystalline gaze, to the boyish features that encompass the pair of stunning blue orbs.

Why indeed, I think to myself as I find myself kneeling before they boy. Why have I done the things I have?

"You shattered our Angel, our only light in the dark," he states cryptically, placing a small, rough hand on my shoulder, "We have to fix this Anakin. For her sake and ours."

"You don't understand," I protest softly, placing my own hand upon the little one's shoulder, "It is too late for me. I have fallen too far. There is no Angel to save me now."

"There may not be an Angel, but the Light will come..." The blue gaze met mine once again, a single brilliant tear glistening on his cheek.

Suddenly, the wind around us picked up, the ash swirling violently around us, seperating his form from mine, eventually pulling the darkness between us, all the while his silken voice rang.

"Watch for the Light..."


Author's Note

Hey guys! This was my first attempt ever at FanFiction, and I'd love to know what you thought of this! Right now it's just a one shot but I may consider expanding this into a real story if enough people show interest...

Any sort of review would help!
