"General!" I hear on of the clones call to me.
"Yes, Commander." I answer back as I turn towards the clone that was making his way towards me.
"We're still looking for Jedi Skywalker but Greneral Kenobi looks like he needs a friend." said Commander Cody.
"Oh?" I asked wondering what this had to do with Skywalker. "I'll talk to him as soon as I can." as I turned back to see a ship decend on to the docking pads.
"Our search may be over Commander," I state as I see Kriss and Anakin get out of the ship.
"That it is, General," stated Commander Cody as he walked away.
I waited hoping that another ship would land shortly but when didn't I started to get worried.
"Master Unduli!" Kriss cried as she entered the room.
"Jedi Kriss, it's good to see you that your well." I stated as I looked at the animal she was holding.
"What is that animal your holding?" I asked thinking that is was for the best that I not get any closer to it.
"It's a P'weck, Master." Kriss quickly stated, then for the life of me added "Anakin brought it with him."
Oh Force, I thought to myself. If that animal is on board this ship then what else has Skywalker let on board with him?
"Master?" asked Kriss.
"Yes Kriss," I stated.
"Are you alright?" She asked as if she could see very clearly my dislike for animals.
Then Kriss turns and calls out "Hey you," to Commander Cody "Yes you, come here!" Who hurries to her side with a worried look on his face.
"Yes General." Commander Cody said as he waited for his orders.
"Could you take this animal to Skywalker's room for me." she asked sweetly as she hands over the animal.
"Yes Sir!" Commander Cody said as he quickly left with the animal.
"Are you worried about Barriss, Master?" Asked Kriss as she sat down on the chair.
"I am." I answered her.
"Well don't be, I'm sure she's fine." Kriss said as she looked out the window.
"If only the council was as sure of that as you are." I stated.
"What do you mean by that Master?" Kriss asked with a worried look on her face.
"It is nothing," I tell her and look over at her "You should go and get cleaned up or at least go and take a short rest before..." I start to say her, then stop as if not to worry her.
"Master!?" Kriss started to say.
"No, Kriss now is not the time for questions." I state then look over at her. "Go rest your questions can wait till later." I state then watch as she leaves the room with more questions then answers.
