Chapter Sixteen

*Lux's POV*

I stared at Padme, surprised. Out of all the Jedi, I was getting the two I knew best. But I wasn't complaining. They were my friends.

"You look surprised," Padme tells me, smiling slightly, "I haven't finished quite yet though. You'll be staying a few days longer until Ahsoka has recovered and if healthy enough,"

"What's wrong with her?" I frown, suddenly worried for her.

"A few days ago, she was injured. When Anakin came back with her, apparently she was barely conscious. After a few tests, it was found, her arm was broken near her elbow in two places, her collarbone was broken and she had been shot in the same elbow. She also had a head injury and was covered in bruises," Padme explained to me, her face creased with worry.

"How did it happen?" I gasp at the severeness of her injuries.

"I'm not sure, I haven't been told yet. Shall we go visit her?" Padme offers, and I gladly accept.

***

When we arrive, we have to wait outside, as the maximum number of visitors have already been filled. Through the glass doors I can see a crowd of Jedi, two of which I recognise as Anakin Skywalker and Obi Wan Kenobi.

"But that's the entire Jedi council," Padme frowned beside me.

"It can't be. What do they want from her?" I ask, bewildered. I didn't think Ahsoka was that important.

"I honestly don't know Lux. We'll ask Anakin later," Padme frowns, again.

Eventually, they do come out, except Anakin Skywalker who stays. He is facing away from us, his arms crossed. He appears to be talking to Ahsoka.

Padme gestures for me to follow her, and I nod, before walking beside her into the room.

"Master Skywalker, I've brought Lux Bonteri to us and he has agreed to accept help. Are you still planning to join him?" Padme's voice is very clear, and it carries softly across the room. Anakin turns to speak to us.

"Yeah, we're still doing it," he looks tired, as if he hasn't slept in several days. I follow Padme over to Ahsoka's bed, where I can finally see her properly.

Her left arm is wrapped tightly with bandages, and another wrapped around her shoulder, under her arm and around the base of her neck. She has several bruises over her face, and a few stitches as well. She is sitting on top of her covers so I can see all of her. Another bandage is wrapped around her ankle, as if it had been twisted. Overall, she has plenty of injuries.

"Ahsoka! How are you?" Padme reaches her first and she squeezes gently on Ahsoka's right hand.

"I'm getting better, thanks," Ahsoka smiles, despite being in pain.

"That's good. Do you know anymore yet?" Padme steps back.

"No," Anakin states before Ahsoka can open her mouth, "We don't know anything, and I know more about it than Ahsoka does, even though I wasn't there,"

Ahsoka blushes and looks away. I frown, Padme has her mouth open slightly and Anakin has a scowl on his face. This isn't awkward at all. And, I am really confused. But before anyone decides to break the silence, Anakin's commlink beeps and flashes; he taps it.

"Yes Rex?"

"Master Kenobi requires your assistance," the voice spills out into the room.

"I'm coming. Oh, and tell Obi Wan this better be important," Anakin frowns at the commlink, turns it off without waiting for an answer and strides out of the room.
