Chapter 22

“ Good morning.” Anakin rolled over and pulling Vanessa closer to him. He reached up to remove a few stray hairs from Vanessa’s face.

“ Mmm . . . good morning. So, we will be landing in the Jedi Temple soon?” Vanessa moved closer to Anakin and then, laying her right arm over Anakin’s chest.

“ Yeah, we will be landing in about an hour. Obi-Wan and I will take you and Allyson to the two quarters in the Temple, that is used by visiting dignitaries or Senators that are not in the Galactic Senator. Obi-Wan and I will both wait to see the Council members. Well, I hate to say this, but we need to get up and have breakfast, before we land.” Anakin leaned down and gave Vanessa a kiss, before getting up and getting dressed.

“ Ok. That sounds good to me. I believe I will fix breakfast this morning, since Allyson made dinner last night. It is only right.” Vanessa sat up and pulled the covers over her body, as she watched Anakin getting dressed.

“ Yeah, that does sound like the right thing to do. Well, I am going to see if Obi-Wan is up and start making the Caf.” Anakin came over to the bed and helped Vanessa get out of bed. Then, he pulled her into his arms and gave her a long and passionate kiss, before turning around and leaving the room.

Vanessa got dressed and left the room, only to find out that only she and Anakin were up. She went into the small kitchenette and started breakfast, as Anakin started up the Caf machine.

“ Mmm . . . That smells good. Sorry, I was not up to help you with breakfast.” Allyson came up to Vanessa, as she was putting the food into the platter.

“ Good morning. Thanks. It is ok. I wanted to do this, because you fixed dinner by yourself last night.” Vanessa said, as she flipped the last pancake.

“ Ok. Good morning, Anakin. Obi-Wan will be up in a couple of minutes. I will set the table for you.” Allyson went over to the cabinet, took out the four plates and took them to the table.

Good morning ,ladies, Anakin. Mmm, that smells good, Vanessa. So, how long do we have until we arrive at the Temple?” Obi-Wan walked into the lounge and kitchenette and took the cup that Anakin held out to him.

“ Well, will be arriving at the Temple in an hour or so. Here you go, Allyson, a cup for you.” Anakin handed Allyson her cup of Caf, before going over to the table.

They all sat down and began eating the breakfast that Vanessa made all of them. They were talking about when they land at the Temple, that Anakin and Obi-Wan will take them to the quests quarters, so they all can wait to see the Council Members. What they may do is ask them questions or just use the Force and probe their minds. They had just finishing eating, when the alarm went off, to let them know that they were about to come out of hyperspace.

“ This is Coruscant Air Control. Please, ID yourself and your business here. What is your cargo?” the air controller’s voice came over the radio.

“ This is JK-465 and we are heading for the Jedi Temple. We have no cargo.” Anakin told the air controller.

“ Hold your pattern, until I can confirm your ID.” the air controller came back on the radio.

“ Roger, Air Control.” Anakin answered, as he slowed their approached to the planet gravitational pull.

“ So, how long will it take for them to confirm the ID that you just gave them?” Vanessa looked around Anakin’s chair and saw the huge planet that was nothing but a huge city.

“ It will take them a couple of seconds to confirm the ID.” Obi-Wan said ,just as the radio crackled to life again.

“ This is Jedi Temple Air Control. Please proceed to your flight pattern and welcome home, Jedi Skywalker.” the Temple air controller called out, before the radio went dead.

“ Thank you. It is good to be back, and the flight pattern is straight for the Jedi Temple.” Anakin repeated the last part, before shutting off the radio.

Twenty minutes later, Anakin was landing the ship in the hanger bay of the Jedi Temple, and waiting for them was Master Yoda.

“ Welcome to the Jedi Temple. Take you to your quarters, I will.” Yoda gave both Vanessa and Allyson, a welcoming smile as they came off the ship.

“ Master Yoda, this is Vanessa and this is Allyson, and this Grand Master Jedi Yoda.” Anakin introduced Yoda to the two girls.

“ It is nice to meet you, Master Yoda. Jedi Skywalker has told me a lot about you.” Vanessa bowed her head to the old Jedi Master.

“ Nice to meet you, it is, and I do hope that he has said good things.” Yoda gave a small laugh, as he returned the head bow.

“ Yes. He did speak very highly of you.” Vanessa smiled at the little Jedi Master and what she was telling him was the truth.

“ Yes, it is very nice to you meet you, Master. Obi-Wan also told good things about you too.” Allyson stepped up next to Vanessa and bowed her to Yoda.

“ Well, I am so glad that these two think highly of me. Now, please follow me and take you to your quarters, I will, while Anakin and Obi-Wan get cleaned up for their debriefing.” Yoda looked at the two men and gave them a warning look, as to not come with him, and that they need to get ready for their debriefing.

“ Yes, Master.” both Jedi Knights said together, before they looked at the two girls and they just nodded at them, to let them know that they will be ok.

Anakin and Obi-Wan left the two girls and Yoda and went off to their quarters, so that way, they could get cleaned up. From there, they would head off to the Jedi Council, to give them their debrief on the mission that Anakin was on ,before he crashed on the planet.

“ This is your quarters, Vanessa. Dinner will be served in thirty minutes. I will come and get you and you will have dinner with me.” Yoda opened the door to the room that Vanessa will be staying in.

“ Thank you, Master. I will be ready by then.” Vanessa walked into the room and turned to bow her head to the Master Jedi.

Yoda smiles and nods his head in return, then leaves Vanessa, so he can show Allyson to her quarters, which is located three doors down from Vanessa’s quarters. Thirty minutes later, Yoda came to get the girls and they went to dining hall that is used for their visitors. Anakin and Obi-Wan was there, waiting for them at the table.

During dinner, both girls told Yoda all about themselves. As they did, he was reading them ,to see what their intentions were, with the two Jedi Knights. The only thing that he could read from them ,was pure love. Not only was it coming from both girls, but it was also coming from Anakin and Obi-Wan too. Four hours later, the girls were saying good night to both Anakin and Obi-Wan. Yoda told them that they had to stay separate from each other, until the Council comes to their decision about their marriage. They climbed into the beds and fell sound asleep. Now, they just had to wait, until they are called to see the Council, which would be in a couple of days.
