Anakin sat by the window, a brooding expression on his face. Padmé sat at the opposite end of the room, trying to think of ways to provide the man with comfort but she knew it was hopeless.

Behind him, Anakin could feel the metal doors parting and a new figure entering the room, but he did not turn to face the man. He kept his eyes on the busy city of Coruscant. People seemed in such a hurry to get somewhere, and for what? It could all be ripped away from them at a moments notice. He wanted to shout and scream. He wanted to insist that they spent more time with their families and friends, and appreciated the small moments. But he remained silent.

"The Council wants to see you, Anakin," Obi-Wan announced.

"Alright," the younger Jedi replied but made no move to get up from his seat.

Obi-Wan started to scold his former padawan for the attitude, but Padmé quickly took over.

"Anakin, I'm sure it's very important. It's best if you hurry and get there." The senator spoke in a soothing and patient tone as she crossed the room to her friend.

Anakin flinched as he felt a hand on his shoulder. Padmé was a good friend of his and he understood she meant the best, but nothing could comfort him in that moment. He shrugged her arm away as he rose from the red velvet couch and exited the room without a word to either of his friends.

As he walked through the halls, flashes of memories in that same building passed through his mind. Memories of moments filled with Y/N. He stopped and stared at the rug under his feet, losing his mind in his thoughts.

"Shhh," Y/N whispered, a bright smile on her face. "Ani, we have to be quiet."

"I know, I know," Anakin replied. He grinned right back and pushed Y/N up against the wall in the middle of the hall. He pressed a soft kiss to his lover's lips and his fingers tangled into her hair.

Y/N pulled away after a moment, still smiling. She looked so happy despite the harsh consequences they would face for being caught together. She gently took Anakin's hand and continued their walk down the hall.

"Come on, lover boy," Y/N teased. "We have a meeting to be at, or have you forgotten already?"

The sound of a Obi-Wan approaching from behind snapped Anakin back into reality. He turned to face his former mentor and together the two marched into the room where the Jedi council were waiting.

All eyes turned to the pair the minute they entered the room.

"What's this meeting about?" Anakin asked, directing his question to Mace. Meetings weren't usually so last minute. It wasn't often he got called in like this without warning.

"We received a transmission from Count Dooku," Mace Windu spoke, his voice deep and stern. We haven't opened it yet. We were waiting until you arrived."

Anakin nodded slowly. The mention of the Count made his fingers curl into fists.

"I suggested we wait because of how closely you worked with Y/N," Obi-Wan added, sparing a glance at the younger Jedi.

Anakin knew that Obi-Wan had other motivations for wanting to include him, but those just stay secret. If his relationship with the Y/N were to be found out, they'd both be expelled from the order.

"Let's get on with it then." Anakin strode across the room and took a seat, ready to watch whatever message Dooku had for them. He feared the worst but hoped for the best. Perhaps they could find where Y/N was being kept. Or perhaps Dooku just wanted a ransom. Anakin would pay anything to get her back.

The hologram began playing. Dooku wasn't anywhere in sight, but Y/N was. She was laid out across a metal table, dried blood at the corner of her nose and mouth.

A shadow fell over her, although the figure never stepped into view. Her breathing grew heavy and expression fearful.

"I've already told you, I don't know anything," Y/N said.

A muffled voice gave a response and tears began to slip down the young woman's face.

Anakin shifted in his chair, fury radiating off of him and he made no effort to conceal it from the council. He watched the video as metal cuffs were placed on his girl's hands and ankles and she began to scream.

"I don't know anything!" Y/N shrieked. The statement was followed by cries of pain as electricity was passed through her body. "Ani!"

Anakin closed his eyes and breathed out a heavy sigh, vowing to find her and rescue her, no matter what.
