Catch me when I fall {Anakin Skywalker AU}

Escape

15 minutes later...

Obi-Wan felt a ripple in the force, it felt ominous, but not malicious, it felt like freedom, like desperation, like Anakin. "Did you feel that Master?" Obi-Wan inquired.

"Oh, stop with your worrying padawan, live in the moment, let the force guide you." Lectured Qui Gon. "The force is telling me there is something wrong with Anakin, we should go find him." The duo sprinted to the hangar, where they last saw innocent Anakin studying their ship. To their surprise, the door was wide open, and their ship nowhere to be seen. On the floor in bright orange paint were the two words, "I'm Sorry" and next to it, Anakin's pod racing symbol, (an arrow pointing up, with an x through it.) Anakin always called it the 'bull'. Obi Wan's mouth was agape, while Qui Gon clenched his teeth together. "What do we do master?"

"What does the force tell you to do?" inquired Qui Gon

"I don't know ho-how to describe it, but it's calling me to let him leave, it's urging me to let him go." Stuttered Obi-Wan, clearly perplexed and in shock.

"That's the impression I'm getting too, we will tell the council that he has already gone with the agricorps ship that came this morning, it is the will of the force and we must respect it." Concluded Qui Gon reluctantly. "I don't know why the force is telling me this, but maybe it was his destiny.

Anakin hummed to himself, clearly proud of himself for escaping. He was still alert and ready, just in case some pesky Jedi went to chase him. It seemed as if the Jedi council cared so less about him that they didn't know he was gone. Maybe he was just a boy in the way of their goals, a boy to get rid of for their convenience. He couldn't go back to Tatooine, not yet, he couldn't free her yet, and he couldn't face her after being rejected by the Jedi. He would live peacefully on some moon until he could control his powers better and had more resources.

Anakin knew that he was a technical genius, he would get a job and save up until he could buy Shmi's freedom. One day, he and his mother could travel the galaxies and maybe even Naboo...

A/N

Sorry for the short chapter, but I promise the next one will be long and exciting. Also, you may be wondering why this story is called Toxins, well due to some serious writer's block, i decided to name it after one of my favourite 'chill' songs, 'Toxins' by Carlie Hanson. Thanks for reading my story and don't forget to give some feedback!
