starter for @mstrobiwan !
UTAPAU, THAT WAS WHERE HE’D BEEN SENT. It seems so long ago that Anakin bid farewell to his old master and closest friend, almost like a lifetime has passed between then and now. Now, Anakin’s a fugitive-- the man who assassinated the supreme chancellor -- who had killed four Jedi.
His hands shake as he takes back the controls, his starfighter coming out of hyperspace above the planet. The holofeed has been analysed, and only moments ago a beacon had been sent out from the Council, reporting that he’d gone rogue, and that his capture was required. Anakin’s blood had run cold-- he knows very well that he might be walking right into his capture now. No doubt Obi-Wan, if he’d managed to finish defeating Grievous, would have gotten the message as well.
Anakin can only hope that his brother will listen to him as well as his wife had.
He takes his starfighter down to the surface, gaze taking in the apparent carnage that had happened-- it seems like the battle is over, considering the way the republic troops are fanned out all over the place, it looks like cleanup has begin. Anakin can’t see Obi-Wan, but he can still sense his presence.
He lands away from where most of the clones are gathered, and then activates his comlink, syncing up with Obi-Wan’s signal.
“ master... i’m here, on utapau. i need to talk to you-- but you have to promise you’ll listen to me and won’t try to capture me. ”
He can only hope that he’ll be able to divert Obi-Wan’s attention from the flecks of gold in his irises...
