"What will become of my child?" said the mother with tears streaming down her cheeks. "What does the Force tell you of her future?"
Ahsoka held the infant child close to her bosom. Gently she stroked through the thick, curly locks with her worn, red fingers. At the mothers question, she hung her head in despair, unsure of how to answer the bewildered woman.
"The Dark Side clouds everything," she said gravely. "I cannot know your child's future at this moment." The mother choked with a sob and held both hands to her heart as if she feared with would burst. Ahsoka removed her hand from the infants head and placed it upon the shoulder of the mother.
"Promise me she will live," begged the mother, her voice choked and cracking with emotion. Ahsoka wanted to give the mother her word. But of this surety, she could not.
"Your child will be safest in my care," she said. "For her to remain here on Naboo would be fatal both for herself and for you." Ahsoka tried to look into the eyes of the mother; eyes heavy with tears; tears of fear, sorrow, bewilderment, worry and love. The emotion of her heart flooded Ahsoka's mind, threatening to break her heart and spill out its tearful overflow. But this, she could not do. The mother could not see her fear, her worry, her uncertainty. No, she had to be strong, reassuring the mother that her child would be safe. She turned her eyes on the child and again began to stroke through the ruby-blond locks.
"The Dark Side spans the galaxy, consuming all things," said Ahsoka. "The JedI are a deformity in the smothering cloud the Sith. A child burning with the light of the force as this will not go unnoticed for long here on this planet."
"Is there no hope that she will survive The Purge?" asked the mother as if in a desperate, last effort attempt to gain some ribbon of hope. Ahsoka could contain herself no longer. Her eyes glazed with water and a salty stream began to trickle across her right cheek.
"There is always hope."
