(y/n)'s/Izdaja's POV
I sat on the floor of the cell with the destruction I caused around me. It's been an hour since he left and I could still feel his pain from where I was. I wanted to feel sorry for him but what he was feeling was only a fraction of my own pain. The talk we had played in my head on repeat.

Everything he told me was hard to believe. I was afraid to trust him. His last lie tore me apart and a part of me died that day in the pod. If he really loved me then how could he do something so cruel? He should have known what it would do to me. Obi-Wan is no better, he acted like a father towards me and it was his plan too, he could have told me. And for me to trust Padme only for her to know the truth the entire time.. I felt like everything around me shattered.

I felt like a fool. I didn't trust them anymore. I didn't feel loved anymore. You don't do what they did to someone you love. I hated them. I hated them all.

I glanced over to the glass and watched Rex as he paced back and forth, doing his best not to look over at me. Anakin left him on duty to watch over me. Not that there's much I can do. This cell was designed for people like me and I had the force restraint cuffs tightly locked on me. I sighed as I leaned up against the hard wall and stared up at the ceiling. I needed to get out of here. I looked down to the cuffs and an idea sparked in my mind.

I stood up and turned around so my back was facing the glass. I brought my wrist up to my mouth and bit down as hard as I could to draw blood on the one wrist that I still had. It was painful but nothing I couldn't handle. I pulled away and drops of my blood were falling to the floor. I smiled and turned back around to walk to Rex, "Rex I think whoever put these on did it too tight." I spoke to him through the glass and he stopped pacing to walk over and he eyed my bloody wrist.

"I apologize but there's not much I can do now." He spoke in a professional tone.

I sighed, "But it really hurts, how do you think General Skywalker would feel about this poor treatment?" I asked as I tilted my head to the side, "I'm just asking you to loosen them a bit." I brought my wrists up so he could see the damage more and he sighed when he saw it. He called over two clones to guard the door for when he came inside, in case I tried anything. I smiled as he walked inside holding the key. Two clones at the door were pointing their blasters at me, "I appreciate this Rex." I continued smiling at him.

"I don't need General Skywalker on my back if he saw this." He pointed to my wrists. I lifted them up for him so he can loosen them and as soon as he placed the key in, the cuffs completely unlocked. See with these cuffs in order for you to adjust them they need to be removed first. And I thought clones were suppose to be smart.

"You're the best." I chuckled as I force shoved him against the two clones who tried to shoot at me but the blasts hit the ceiling instead. I used the force to lift up Rex and bring him to me, my hand grasped his neck and he looked at me with fear, I wanted to kill him but something inside of me stopped it from happening. So I threw him against the hard wall and he fell, landing roughly against the edges of the metal table.

The two clones that were at the door got back up and they aimed their weapons at me. And like Anakin taught me, I reached my hand out and closed my fist so the blasters flew towards me. I caught one and aimed it at them and I shot them both.

Anakins POV
"Anakin you need to get up you're starting to worry me." Obi-Wan nudged me. I was laying in my bed holding onto the pillow that she would use. It was soaked with my tears. I haven't stopped crying since I left her down there.

"Go away." I mumbled as I buried my face into the pillow that still held some of her scent.

"No I will not go away." He sat next to me on the bed and I felt him place his hand on my arm, "Well if you won't get up then I guess I'll just have to stay."

"You don't need to do that." I responded in a muffled voice as I used the pillow to wipe tears away.

"I know but I want to," He patted me on my arm, "Are you gonna tell me what happened?"

I sighed as I sat up so I could look him in the eyes, "She hates me Obi-Wan, she's so far gone and I don't know anymore if I'll be able to bring her back." After our last encounter, I was starting to lose hope. Not entirely, but I didn't know how to reach her or get her to listen to me. The way she screamed that she hated me was embedded in my mind. It was filled with so much rage and pain and the way her yellow eyes grew red as she said it made my skin crawl. But after all this I still loved her, I still wanted her. She was my heart and without her, I would never be a complete person.

"We-" Obi-Wan was cut off by the sound of the temple alarm blaring. "What could that possibly be?" He jumped up and I followed him into the hallways.

Clones were running through the halls and checking doors, "You," I grabbed one of the clones, "What happened?"

"The prisoner has escaped sir." He informed me and once again my heart dropped in my chest. She got out, how the hell did she get out? I left Rex there- oh no Rex.

I ran down to the detention center, Obi-Wan was running right behind me as we made our way through the halls and down the elevator. Rex was icing his head as a medical clone checked him for a concussion. "What happened Rex?" I questioned him and he looked up to me, he had a slight cut near his left eye.

"She tricked me sir, I'm so sorry." He held his head in shame and I watched as two gurneys with bodies of clones roll past me.

"Was that her?" I asked even though I knew the answer.

He nodded with sigh, "Afraid so." He moved the ice pack down and he fiddled with the corners. He was close with (y/n) at one point so I know this was difficult for him.

"How long ago was this?" Obi-Wan asked him.

"Not more than ten minutes ago sir."

I placed my hand in my pocket, I had the tracker still and as far as I know, she still had on her necklace. I pulled it out and could see her, she was still in Coruscant and judging by the direction she was headed, I knew where she was going. "I'll be right back." I told Obi-Wan. He nodded but I could see curiosity in his eyes. I didn't want him coming with me. I knew (y/n) well and if I showed up with anyone other than myself, she would feel ambushed and wouldn't give me the time to talk.

I needed to get her and bring her back. I couldn't have her running around in the galaxy with Maul and Rey. The thought alone made me sick to my stomach.

I ran out of the temple as quick as I could and followed in her foot steps. I ran through the streets and jumped over railings. I hopped down into the sewer line where I knew she was. She had finally stopped moving and it was dead ahead of me. I don't know why she stopped. Maybe she can feel me getting close. Maybe she took off her necklace and threw it away. I'm just hoping that once I reach the destination, that she's there.

(Think of the clone wars episode when Ahsoka was running for the council and Anakin found her in the sewer line.)
(Hands By ORKID 🎼)
I came up to the end of the sewer line and she was standing near a large opening, looking down like she was trying to find a place to land after she jumped. "(y/n)." I called her name and she slightly turned her head so she could look at me with the corner of her eye. "Don't leave." I begged reaching my hands out to her.

She turned around so she was facing me, "Why should I stay?" She asked in an annoyed tone. "So you can lock me up again?"

I stepped closer to her so I was only about a ten foot distance away, "I'm sorry-"

"You've been saying that a lot lately," She interrupted me and rolled her eyes, "I don't want your apologies Anakin." I could feel myself begin to panic as she inched herself closer to the opening. I didn't know what to say, I didn't know how to get her to stay. "Do what you do best and leave me alone." She mumbled and she was about to turn back around until I spoke.

"No," I shook my head, "I let you slip away from me once, I won't do it again." I felt her feel a little conflicted at my words. A part of her cares, a part of her still loves me wether she knows it or not.

"Why did you do it?" She whispered sadly without looking at me. "Why did you let me believe you were dead?"

"I was an idiot. I was convinced that your reaction to our death was gonna be what sold it to everyone else." I was completely honest with her, I didn't want to lie to her ever again.

She snorted through her nose, "I tried to kill myself. Was that good enough of a reaction for you?" She looked up to me and I could see tears in her eyes. But that wasn't the part that truly caught my eye. They weren't yellow right now, I was actually talking to her.

"I-" I almost apologized again but there aren't enough apologies in the galaxy to make up for what I did, "If I could take it back I would. I love you and I want you to please come back. I didn't mean for any of this to happen, I didn't ever want to lose you."

I watched an internal battle go across her features. But once again the yellow appeared and my hope faded away. "You only have yourself to blame." She growled as she grabbed onto her necklace and yanked it off causing the chain to break. She held it over the edge of the opening, "You won't be able to follow me now." She let go and the ring and crystal began to fall but I stopped it with the force. I pulled the items into my hand and when I looked back up she was gone. I ran to the edge and I looked down, she wasn't anywhere in sight.

I dropped to my knees and let out a heart broken scream. I heard footsteps behind me but I didn't care enough to turn around to see who it was. I stared out at the opening where she disappeared to and tried to feel her, but I couldn't. I squeezed the contents in my hand and let out a broken whimper. I was in so much pain. I wouldn't be able to find her anymore. What if I never saw her again?

"Anakin." I heard Obi-Wans voice behind me and he placed a hand on my shoulder. I used my free hand to place my hand on his. I needed the comfort. I wanted to stand up but I felt like I would break apart if I did.

"Anakin come on, it's too late." Ahsoka knelt down next to me. Without thinking I pulled her into a hug and cried into her shoulder. "It'll be okay." She whispered as she rubbed my back.

"No it won't be, I lost the love of my life." I choked out between cries.
