    Teaser.

    He woke up with a start, in his bed. It was odd, because Padmé was usually there and today she wasn?t. The sun was shining through the window and the air was clear.

    But he was not in the bed.

    He was now standing at the end of the bed, staring forward at the bed. The room looked so normal, but distorted. He could feel the prickling of his neck, and looked up to see Siri standing beside him, staring as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

    ?You really need to wake up, you know.? Siri commented, shaking her head.

    He could hear his own voice, but his lip felt numb. ?I only just made that bed!?

    The bed was crinkled suddenly, slept in, a mess. He felt oddly angry about it. Siri just kept on staring.

    ?Who for??

    Anakin shook his head. ?Isn?t that what you?re supposed to tell me??

    Siri smiled a little coldly, but didn?t answer.

    Anakin frowned. ?Have you seen Padmé or the twins? I?m supposed to take -?

    ?You lost them.? Siri stated, matter of fact-ly.

    ?No, I got them back.?

    Siri smiled that smile again, and looked to his left. There was a clock to his left, a digital reading 2:55 in flashing numbers.

    ?It?s so early.? He said, softly.

    ?Not as early as you think.? Siri shrugged. ?That clocks all wrong. Try this.? She put her hands out to give him an ignited red lightsaber.

    ?I?ll never use that,? he commented, refusing it.

    ?Are you sure??

    Anakin just looked at her strangely. ?I have to find the others.?

    As he left the room, her heard her whisper.

    ?Be back before she comes.?

    The walls seemed to change as he walked, and he was now in a weird mixture of what looked like Theed Palace and the Temple. He could see lots of people, some in Jedi clothes, come in civilian.

    ?Where are they?? he whispered to himself. ?They wouldn?t just leave??

    He then noticed an odd crack down into the floor and peered down. In the darkness of what seemed to be his old basement, there was a person, a woman?

    ?Master?? he asked, peering down.

    ?Oh, Anakin, hello.? Obi-Wan commented.

    Anakin looked at him strangly. ?Why are you in the floor??

    ?It?s quite nice down here.? He commented back.

    ?Where is everyone??

    ?You have to go find them, I?? he was cut off by a burst of giggling. He looked up at his rather hurt padawans face. ?Oh, I am sorry, it?s just there?s something tickling me.?

    Anakin looked down, into the dark, seeing an odd light he couldn?t distinguish. ?I don?t think it?s safe there.?

    ?Oh, no I?m fine!? he commented, with a fresh batch of giggles. ?Playing Sabacc in the dark is an experience everyone should have. Well, you?d know. You?re always playing in the dark??

    Anakin looked up from him, seeing Padme walking up in the steps further on. She was wearing a blood red dress, and her hair hung loosely around her shoulders. She seemed to have somewhere to go.

    ??Then again, you could probably give me a hand out of here if you wanted to.?

    But Anakin wasn?t listening. He was already following Padme, but as he went forwards the steps seemed to disappear and a door appeared in its stead, one that opened as he approached it. Inside there were two doors, and as he approachjed one, a scene came before him.

    Two boys ? almost men ? where sitting fixing a ship. As one rolled out, the blonde hair and bright eyes screamed recognition: Luke.

    ?Luke?? he asked softly.

    The teenager smiled, and looked at his dad. ?Hi Dad.?

    He looked at the man and the ship, then back at Luke. ?You grew.?

    Luke smiled sadly. ?You were gone a long time. To

    Oh Ani. The poor man is being tortured by those dreams! **Shudders** The thought of anyone cheating with Palpy is... I don't even know what it is!

    The end was forboding, wasn't it? Lava, huh?

    am I the only one who found this post amusing?
    i.e
    Anakin looked at Palpatine. ?He?s dangerous.?

    ?Oh, honey.? She smiled pleasantly. ?I sleep with you, so I think I can deal,?


    or am I just sadistic? I mean I feel for the guy but the dream was hilarious.

    diamond_pony2002 - Yep.

    Thalia_Nox - You can't walk away form something like that scott free I suppose. You know that never crossed my mind? You have a dirty mind, Miss Nox! The end will come into it later on, you'll have to wait and see!

    CrystalKenobi - Give me a few days and you'll find out.

    Lando_Plenty - You just had to quote him, didn't you?

    Puksi - Oooh Good Luck! I wouldn't recommend anything I took, it was all really difficult [face_laugh] Oh yes, one of my favourites too.

    Darth_Leia_6669 - Oooh yes I know what you mean. I haven't had a minute to write this week! Oh, Thanks, I'll get over there now.

    purpleMonkeeForceUsa - Oh, no I found it funny to write too. I'm as big a sadist as you are!

    Nest post should be tomorrow, or more likely Tuesday.
