A/N: This is a Prologue story. It will be two chapters. Each will be a different prologue. Whichever one people like most will be the one for my Mass Effect Star Wars crossover. Please tell me in your reviews.

MASS EFFECT

Ahsoka Tano

Prologue

Ahsoka managed to buy herself a star ship, food, and a couple changes of cloths with the money Senators Padmé Amidala and Riyo Chuchi gave her as parting gifts, Padmé had also come to see her off.

"Where are you planning on going?" Padmé asked.

"I don't know yet, but I think I need to get away from this war for a while."

"If we're lucky, it'll end soon."

"Unfortunately, I don't think it will." Ahsoka and Padmé gave each other hugs and Ahsoka flew off.

Ahsoka opened her eyes. It had been two years since that day. She now found herself in a region of space she had always wanted to explore, but the council said it was forbidden because this region of space was near a lot of planets with Sith burial grounds. She found she liked the freedoms that came with not being a Jedi.

Suddenly her scanner starting acting weird and then she saw it. Some giant… whatever the Hell it was made entirely out of metal with two conductors spinning around what looked like a core of pure energy.

"What in the universe?" suddenly it was like she was pulled into it and then her ship shot in one direction so fast she wasn't sure what happened. The speed was too much and the engines failed. She crashed on an ice planet, the impact knocking her unconscious.

Many years later…

"Careful now, don't damage it." Dovannan Hock said. he had found a ship unlike any other on an ice planet and decided to thaw it out and out it in his vault.

"Sir, there's something in it." Chief Roe said.

"What?" Hock said and looked closely. Still frozen inside the ship was a girl. She was not human obviously, but she wasn't any alien species he was familiar with. She appeared adolescent, with orange skin, white markings on her face, and white head tails with blue stripes.

"According to our scans she's still alive." One of the mercs said.

"Put her in a cryo pod and put her in my vault for later study."

"Yes Mr. Hock."

"We'd better head back, can't be late to my own party."

"You're Omni-tool should home in on Keji's greybox." Kasumi said. Kasumi Goto, the Master thief. She was so good at what she did that no one even knew what she looked like. Shepherd did since she was working with him however, that was different though. Shepherd couldn't deny it, Hock had good taste for art. But he wasn't sure where the heck he got some of this stuff.

"How did Hock get Lady Liberty's head?" Kasumi asked.

"Hey, what are these?" Shepherd asked and Kasumi followed his line of sight.

"Metal cylinders?" she guessed and picked one up. She noticed a button on it and pressed it. "WHOA!" she said a foot long blade of green energy popped out.

"What in the world?" Shepard asked.

"I, have no idea. Look, there's notes one them. Hm… odd weapons recovered from the belt of Subject X?"

"You mean that cryo pod over there?"

Kasumi looked where Shepard was pointing. The pod said "Subject X" on it. Next to it was a chest with what she guessed where the occupants clothes.

They brushed frost from the covering revealing what appeared to be an adolescent alien girl inside.

"She doesn't look like any species I'm familiar with. According to the panel she's alive and in hibernation."

"What the Hell is the matter with him putting a person in his vault like a trophy…wake her up."

"You're suggesting we take her with us?"

"Yes."

"Very well." Kasumi staring typing on the control panel and soon the pod depressurized and the girl fell out.

Shepherd had respectfully turned away after Kasumi opened the pod.

The young girl was very groggy and tired, but she quickly woke up enough to notice her sate of undress and that she was wasn't alone so she quickly used her arms to cover her nude orange body, only to find out that she couldn't move her arms. "Wh…why won't my arms move?" she asked weakly.

"It is probably a side effect of the time you spent frozen."

"How long?"

"I don't know, but obviously many years if you're muscles have forgotten how to move. I think these are yours." Kasumi said handing her cloths and weapons to her.

"Could you… give me a hand?"

"Is she alright?" shepherd asked, still not looking.

"She's been asleep so long her body has forgotten how to move." Kasumi said as she did the latches on the girl's boots after she helped her slip on her shirt, skirt, and tights.

"She's dressed now."

Shepherd turned to observe the girl. She was young, about eighteen or nineteen. Her skin was a warm shade of orange and she sported white markings on her face. Most interesting through was that, in place of hair, were strange white and blue head tails.

Kasumi helped her stand and the girl attached the cylinders to her belt.

"I believe introductions are in order. I hope you don't mind but I'd feel more comfortable if you two started." She said.

"Fair enough. I'm Commander Shepherd of the SSV Normandy SR2. Former Alliance Military and the first human specter."

"I'm Kasumi Goto. I'm a thief, the best in fact. But right now I'm working for Shepherd."

"I'm Ahsoka Tano, former Jedi Padawan and Commander in the Clone Army Of The Republic, and I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Shepherd, do you think she could be one of the races that existed before the Protheans?" Kasumi asked.

"What's a Prothean?"

"Sounds like it." Shepherd said, "But we should still get her to the Normandy and have Dr. Chakwas take a look at her. Can you walk?"

"Yeah." She said standing up straight.

"Can you fight?"

"In my current condition? Not well."

"Don't worry, we have your back."

She smiled at him. Shepherd suddenly realized she was actually very pretty, heck she was beautiful even. Even more beautiful than Ashley. Ash…

"Oh my God, there it is." Kasumi said, "Keji's greybox." She pulled up her Omni-tool and begun decoding the lock.

"Don't bother miss Goto. It's code-locked." Hock said as his face appeared on a giant screen. "I had a feeling that was you at the door. I knew if it was really you you'd get through anyway."

"You know me. I don't like to disappoint."

"I need what's in your greybox Kasumi. I'm willing to kill you for it. I'll admit your skills are impressive, you got into my vault like I'd left it open. But you're still going to die, screaming."

Shepherd knew this was gonna turn into a monologue and decided to shut him up and shot one of his vases.

"NO!"

"That shut him up." Kasumi said. then her Omni-tool beeped telling them the download was over.

"Kill them!"

"Ahsoka get down!" Shepherd said as Eclipse mercs led by Captain Roe swarmed them.

Ahsoka's arms and legs felt like lead so she knew she couldn't use her sabers, but maybe… she held out her hand and lifted a statue of some really scary looking creature and threw it at mercs.

Seeing her throw a statue and nearly kill all the mercs at once surprised Shepherd.

"She's a biotic?"

"No," Kasumi said, "There was no biotic glow when she did that."

"Then she is defiantly something else."

"Can one of you give me a hand? My legs feel like lead." Shepherd held out his hand and balanced her on his shoulder.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"I'm fine, my legs just feel heavy."

As they fought their way out of Hock's vault Ahsoka became more and more useful as her legs began to feel less heavy.

"Huh? My ship!" she said after they cleared out the mercs in what looked like a hanger.

"I've never seen a ship like this before." Shepherd said.

"It's an ETA-class shuttle. There pretty common. Hm…" she said as she examined it. "Fuel cells have burned out. I don't think she'll fly again."

"Don't worry, we've got our own escape planned."

They finally exited into the courtyard, only to be attacked by Hock in a gunship.

"I'll take care of this myself." He said and they ducked behind crates as he shot at them.

"That ship could be a problem!" Shepherd said.

"I doubt that." Ahsoka as she moved her wrist in a circle and examined it, "Cause I think I've recovered enough to do some damage. Can you keep the mercs off me?"

"Yes."

"Then leave the ship to me." Suddenly one of her sabers left her belt and flew to her hand and she leapt into the air. She used some of the crates to get her onto something that looked like a piping system. Soon she was almost as high as the gunship. Then she leapt about ten feet and landed on the gunship and stabbed its controls with her saber.

She did a backflip off of it and landed on her feet as it exploded behind her. That scared the mercs off.

"That was impressive." Kasumi said.

"Thanks." Ahsoka said before she began to fall over, Kasumi caught her.

"Guess I recovered less then I thought."

"Let's get you onto the Normandy."

"Talk to me EDI." Shepherd said. he was in the briefing and comm room with Miranda and Jacob. Kasumi was in her room and Ahsoka was in the med bay.

"I have run a full scan on her DNA structure and physiology. It matches no known species, not even the Protheans."

"I can tell you what you want to know." Ahsoka said walking in.

"How are you feeling?" Shepherd asked.

"Aside from nervous at all the sideways looks? Dr. Chakwas said I'll be in top shape by tomorrow morning. But you want to know what I am right? I am a Togruta. Togruta are a carnivorous humanoid species from the planet Shili. As you see we exhibit head-tails. Togruta are also distinguished by montrals, large hollow horn-like projections from the top .of our heads, this gives our species a form of passive echolocation. In order to protect ourselves from dangerous predators, and to hunt our own prey, Togruta band together in tribes and rely on our natural pigmentation to disrupt and confuse slow-witted beasts. Togruta work well in large groups, and individualism is seen as abnormal within our culture, although it is also a necessary quality in leaders."

"We've still never heard of anything like you."

"If it makes you feel any better, the only species I recognize are the humans."

"You said something about a clone army and a Republic, care to elaborate on that?"

"There's more to it then that. You may want to sit down, I'm afraid it's a long story."

Ahsoka told them about the Jedi, Sith, Republic, the clone army, and the Separatists with their droid army. She finished with what happened before she woke up on Hock's vault.

In return Shepherd told her everything about his universe.

"This is gonna sound crazy but, I think I'm from an alternate universe." Ahsoka said.

"I don't see another explanation, do you?"

"No. Listen, about your misson. I'm stuck here and I don't have anywhere to go. I hoped to escape war, but your's is far more important them mine. If you will let me, I will fight for you."

Shepherd held out his hand. "Weleome aboard Ms. Tano."

"Just call me Ahsoka."

A/N: Prologue one is done. I will write a second one soon and whichever one people like most will be the prologue for my story which will be called 'MASS EFFECT: Dossier: Ahsoka Tano'.
