Anakin checked on both women as they slept uneasy. Even with the force he couldn't stop Padame's cousin from the heavy guilt rampaging through her system. He'd given up and called the Chancellor."I need to know who's behind this and I need to know soon." Chancellor Palpatine's face was a mask of concern."Yes, I know Anakin but these things take time.The investigation could take months you can't spare away from the battle." Anakin rocked back and forth on his heels."Yes I know that,but a couple of days. At least Padame and Reaya will want to arrive in time for the funerals." Palpatine nodded his ascent."Of course Anakin. Is there anything mais you need, extra guards?"
"No thank-you chancellor. I've put my best men on the job."
"Then I will leave them to your most capable care." Bowing out, he clicked off the monitor. His brow furrowed, he hadn't foreseen the Lady Reaya surviving. It would have to be rectified. Except he'd already had the merk's find their own deadly ends, he'd have to see about puting out a contract to a very lovely lady.

Anakin opened the door as Rex relieved one of his men at the front door."How are they sir?"Rex inquired."Not good. Reaya blames herself for not being at início when it happened.Padame, feels guilty for being happy her mother had returned início just hours before the fogo broke out."
"If Lady Reaya was to have died,she would've been there." Rex said.Anakin narrowed his eyes at the Captain."Very insightful of you Rex,but I doubt it would make her feel any better. As it stands we have only perguntas on how the fogo started and why no one get out. That's why I had your men guard them, in case some one should try finishing the job."
"Don't have to worry about that general,we'll keep them safe."
"Yes, yes we will captain.I'm going to make the rounds. Call me if something shouldn't feel right." Watching the general walk around the corner. Rex thought over the conversation, getting the shiver's. That no one had escaped because no one was alive to get out.

Later that night Padame called in at Ahsoka's apartment. A clone answered, she was about to excuse herself from the viewer. When Ahsoka's image pushed the clone to the side."Its alright Sharp,take a walk." The clone folded his arms as if he'd was about to retort, but then just shook his head as he grabbed a robe, veste, roupão and headed for the door. Sighing and rolling her eyes,Ahsoka turned back to Padame. "Oh,Ahsoka I'm so glad to see you. But you look..." Ahsoka finished Padame's sentence."Terrible.I know but the doc's tell me its just some kind of flu. That I'll be back to my old self in a matter of weeks." She sat down on the chair seguinte to her table."Glad you called anyway,not much female companionship here to speak of. So I haven't told anyone of my mais recent dreams,especially not the council. I've already informed them, of most of my first one with a few cuts here and there but I thought I might want a woman's perspective on the things I haven't told them." Padame listened as Ahsoka prattled on, giving answer's where she could. Except there weren't that many to give."I'll give you a call back when I've given it mais thought."Ahsoka yawned as she nodded."I better let my overly worried roomy in. In fact he's right outside our door.Good night Padame." She clicked off with a laugh.

Reaya heard Padame on the view monitor with Skywalker's padawan. Reaya thanked the stars,her cousin was busy as she stared at her reflection in the nearby mirror. Tears quivered down her cheeks as her guilt bubbled up, she should've been there. Why had her father allowed her to stay. She could've been with them. Her father,her little brother Tyrin, and their hired help. That stayed with them,were now reduced to dust, without her. Angery, she wipped the tears away and grabbed her robe, veste, roupão from the door. Walking out onto the embrulho, envoltório around balcony, from her room she looked out at the bustling city. Feeling no warmth, only it's cold lonliness she turned her attention down.
A fall from here would put her right. Right where she should've been,dead. Reaya in her sorrow never seen the trooper approaching swiftly. Raising up her head, she let the river's of tears fall as she clasped her robe, veste, roupão tightly to her body. Taking what should of been her last step. The trooper,had not only called the others but raced sliding at the last moment. Catching a hand hold onto the robe, Reaya wriggled like a caught fish, trying to free herself from the trooper's grasp as they pulled her up. As the other two troopers sat against the mural catching their breath. The one that had called it in,laid on his back with his catch. Jerking his capacete off he looked down at the small young woman.Her face lay obscured por the mass of dark blond hair and his chest. As she whimpered her small fists beat on his armored chest."Nice catch, Joker." Captain Rex's voice sounded as he dispatched those that had arrived back to their posts. Joker tried to salute, but couldn't as the woman held him fast.Shrugging he clasped her closer."Take care of her trooper, she's all yours." Captain Rex said with a little concern. He should've placed a stationary guard at her door, he was slipping.
