46-Darkness

Anakin's POV
Darkness..

I was surrounded by nothing but darkness, I had nowhere to run, nowhere to turn, I didn't know where I was. It was like I was in a black void where life or time didn't exist.

I spun around in circles trying to figure out what my purpose for being here was when I heard crying. It was her crying.

I turned around and saw a spotlight that wasn't there before and in it was (y/n) on her knees crying harder than I've ever seen. It broke me to see her in this state and I tried running to her but it felt like something was holding me in place.

I could no longer move, I was paralyzed.

"(y/n)!" I called out her name, but she never looked up at me, she continued to sob as she held her hands tightly close to her chest like she was trying to keep herself from falling apart.

Suddenly a hooded figure walked slowly behind her, a red lightsaber in their hand and they inched closer to her. I stood there panicking, I tried to scream again, to warn her, but no sound came out. I was completely helpless.

She stopped crying and looked up to me, her tear filled eyes meeting mine. "Anakin help me." She whimpered and a lightsaber pierced through her heart from behind and she dropped to the floor. I wanted to scream, I felt my heart shattering, I knew this was a nightmare, I knew that.. but the sight of her dying was too much for me to handle.

The hooded figure stepped over her body and into the darkness. Just as quick as they went in, they were standing in front of me. I needed to see their face, I had to. They stood there momentarily, only the sound of our breathing filled the silence.

My wishes were answered when the person reached their hands up and  put their hood down.

I didn't understand.. This didn't make sense, I just saw this person kill my wife but then.. why was my wife standing right in front of me?

"You only have yourself to blame." She growled, shooting her hand up to my throat and began to choke me.

I gasped awake and immediately brought my hand to neck. It felt real, her grip on me felt so real. Why was I having these kind of nightmares.. what did they mean? I reached my hand over to touch my wife. I felt the warmth of her skin and she groaned sleepily at my touch, she rolled over to face me and her eyes met mine.

"Are you okay?" She questioned with concern in her voice as she sat up next to me.

"I am now." I smiled down at her and I used my mechanical hand and glided the metal fingers through her hair.

"You're sweating." She lifted her palm up and brushed the strands of hair back that were stuck to my forehead. "Are you having nightmares again?" She brought her palm down so it rested on my cheek.

I wanted to tell her no but I've already been lying to her so much lately, I didn't want to add another one on top of that. "Yeah," I admitted, "But I don't want to talk about it."

"I want to know what's troubling you." Her pleading eyes peered into mine.. but how could I tell her? How could I tell her that it's her thats troubling me? First she had Sith eyes and now.. I watched her kill herself and she blamed me. I was so afraid of the things I was seeing. And I know she could feel it, she could feel my fear.

I couldn't tell her though, so I told her something else, "We have to destroy Kamino." I saw her eyes shift from worry to confusion.

"What?!"

(y/n)'s POV
"Wait so you're telling me the clones have been apart of some big plot to destroy the Jedi?" I questioned in utter disbelief. This was insane, I knew he was telling the truth but the thought that our comrades, our friends, were planted into our lives just to be the ones to end them.
