hello! My name is lily and this is my first story, so please review and tell me what you think. Also, I apologize for any technical difficulties; I have no clue what I'm doing. My first few chapter are kinda crappy, so please stick wth me. Enjoy:)
"Ahsoka tano, by and overwhelming count of seven out of seven jurors, this court finds you guilty of treason against the republic, resisting arrest and the murder of letta turmond. You shall be executed by firing squad in three days time."
No. It couldn't be. Ahsoka was innocent. Anakin Skywalker, failing to find the true culprit, had walked into the court room just as the sentence was read. He'd tried so hard, but he'd failed to save ahsoka, just like he failed to save his mother.
Ahsoka was numb. Just numb. She didn't bomb the temple, but it didn't matter. Nobody had trusted her enough to listen to her side of the story. Not even the council, who she had served since she was three. All that was left for her was to spend her last days alone in a cell with that vile scumbag, tarkin, gloating over her.
But Ahsoka refused to cry. Even when she was cuffed and had a force collar put on her neck,
she held her head high as she was roughly dragged out of the court room by several clones.
Suddenly, Anakin snapped out of his daze. "NO!" he yelled "SHE DIDN'T DO IT! SHE'S-"
Anakin felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked over and saw his former master, Obi-wan kenobi, had come down from the viewing box.
"Calm down" he told his former apprentice. "I don't agree with the sentence either,but the force is clouded and it seems that, sadly, it is a distinct possibility that she is guilty."
"She's innocent" growled anakin as he stormed out of the courtroom.

SOMEWHERE ON NAL HUTTA
Ian Tano could feel his brothers' eyes burning int his skin as he turned away from the holoTV.
"Dude," Pash told him, "it totally sucks our sister is a terrorist, but why do you care? You barley knew her before she went to corosaunt to be a jedi."
"Yea," Marvin agreed, "you guys were only three when they separated you."
Ian regarded his older brothers carefully. None of them looked alike, as they all had different fathers, but they all had the same blue eyes. Ian looked into both of his brothers eyes before he replied.
"Yes," he said, "I know. But still, I liked the thought of my twin sister being a jedi, and I hoped I could meet her someday. Us Tanos should be honorable people, not just outer rim scum."
Marvin snorted. "We're bounty hunters that make our entire livelihood doing illegal shit, and you wanted to meet a jedi? Ha!"
"He's right," Pash said. "Even if our sister wasn't a terrorist, it would be highly unlikely that you could ever see her again, considering our career. I wish I could have though, I was only ten when I last saw her."
The brothers sat in a comfortable silence for a few minutes, thinking. They often did this, just sitting and thinking in silence. Finally, Pash broke the silence when he asked, "Do either of you remember our mother?"
"Barley," replied Marvin.
"Yea," Ian added, "all I remember is that our mother was a prostitute, and we ran away almost a year after Ahsoka was stolen."
"She wasn't stolen," said Pash quietly, "I thought she would have a better life with the jedi."
"Well that worked out well," muttered Marvin sarcastically.
Ian slapped him.
