Destruction

Summary- my first star wars clone wars fic. AU set before the end of the clone wars and continues to the last film. Ahsoka Tano and Barris Offee are sent on a mission on Coruscant, there they see the destruction of the Jedi order and meet up with the unlikeliest of people.

Down in the slum districts once more, Ahsoka found herself once again tracking down a arms dealer, but this time her companion was her old friend Barris Offee. Anakin was off doing missions for chancellor Palpatine, Ahsoka found herself more and more frequently left out of the loop. However, Ahsoka realised something was wrong with Anakin ever since he first started meeting with the chancellor, it didn't take a genius to work out something bad was about to happen.

"I can't believe we have to after a gun runner. We could be fighting the separatists." Complained Ahsoka.

"At least we get to go on a mission without out masters." Came to reply of her trusted friend, Barris.

"Speaking of which were is your master?"

"She's currently of Felucia mopping up the last of the separatist resistance."

"Thank goodness, the rate we're going, the war should be over soon."

"Yes… ah here we are."

The pair had reached their destination, a run down bar named the red dragon, a two level building, the front door made of solid steel with two large windows either side, the top being bare. The windows themselves were a deep orange colour and the padawans could see the faint outlines of the people inside.

"Let's go." Said Ahsoka, drawing her lightsaber from under her disguise which consisted of a long flowing cloak with hood.

"Wait Ahsoka. Instead of charging head first, why don't we see what's on the inside first?"

"Fine, have it your way."

Ahsoka sheathed her lightsaber back under her robes, not realising that one of the drunks inside had saw them.

"Don't worry, we'll be in and out in a few then back at the temple. What could go wrong?" Barris said, with a dismissive wave of her hand as the pair stepped through the door.

"Freeze Jedi."

"Bugger."

In front of the Jedi stood a dozen drunks, each holding different sorts of weapons, from daggers to blasters. At the bar stood the man they were looking for. He was a human, average height, long brown hair tied into a ponytail with red eyes. he had a scar that covered his right eye and was dressed in raggy clothes, a brown torn duster, black trousers and boots with a brown shirt.

"Looking for me Jedi? I suggest you turn around, there's no way you can take on all of us."

"Want a bet?" Both padawans echoed in unison, drawing their lightsabers.

Green and blue light bounding round the room as the drunks prepared for a fight.

"We can do this the hard way or the easy way gentlemen."

A shot fired at Ahsoka in response, shattering the window behind her.

"So the wrong choice."

Back in the Jedi temple Ahsoka and Barris flanked the gun runner, their clothes being slightly torn and signed from the fight. And of course both were unharmed.

"You really should have come quietly." Complained Ahsoka. "But who cares? You're going to spend a long time in jail for this."

"I'll be out before you know it, I have powerful friends. Remember my name, Darren Bore, that's the last name you'll hear before you die."

"That's nice to know now move."

Ahsoka shoved him down the hallway where a clone guard was supposed to take him to the holding cells for questioning, but the hallway was empty.

"Hello? Anyone there?"

Barris went into the office to see where the guard was, while Ahsoka, who was very unhappy with the arrangement, stayed with the gun runner.

A familiar sound reached Ahsoka's ears, turning round she found herself facing a squad of 5 clone soldiers coming up the corridor.

"There you are. We have the gun runner for detainment."

The soldiers made no attempt to even respond as they stopped before Ahsoka standing perfectly still.

"Are you alright?"

Click

The 5 clone soldiers pointed their guns directly at Ahsoka, acting on instinct, she used the force to throw the nearest object at them which happened to be Darren. He collided into the clones giving Ahsoka enough time escape.

His voice carried through as she ran.

"You bitch, I will have my revenge if it's the last thing I do."

Eventually Ahsoka ran through the office to see if she could find Barris. What she found was sickening. Her stomach lurched as she saw the scene before her, dead bodies littered the room. Those of Jedi and clone alike, in the middle on her knees was Barris kneeling over one of the younglings. She managed to hear the conversation of the two.

"Who did this youngling?"

"The…the clones."

"What?"

"I heard an order 66… clones opened fire… barley managed to draw my lightsaber."

"It's going to be ok youngling."

"Dark Jedi… don't trust."

"Who?"

"An…"

The youngling died in Barris' arms, she was in tears as Ahsoka placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"Look, more Jedi. Open fire."

Both padawans moved with incredible speed, drawing their lightsabers and attacking the clones in a matter of seconds. For the two Jedi it was easy, they cut the clone's weapons in two and threw them into the walls where they fell to the floor unconscious.

"Oh my god." Gasped Barris.

"What is it?"

Ahsoka followed Barris's gaze to a window over looking the main part of the temple, the sight was unbearable. Thousands clones fighting the Jedi, blue lasers firing all over the place. Blue and green lightsabers flashing about on all levels of the temple.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

"That's mine."

Barris withdrew her holowatch thing (don't know what its called), pressing a button she saw the image of her master, Luminara, holding her lightsaber fighting off the clone troopers.

"Barris! If you can hear me, get out of the inner core. Trust no one, the clones have betrayed us…"

Barris watched as Luminara was struck down by multiple lasers flying in from every direction.

"Master!"

The hologram showed the clones swarming over her body continually firing at her lifeless body making sure she was dead.

"Noooo!"

Suddenly the transmission was cut off leaving Barris on the floor crying once more.

"Barris, we must leave this place."

Ahsoka lifted up Barris under her arm and dragged her out, but something else caught her eye, on the opposite side of the temple, on a catwalk stood two Jedi fighting. The first she recognised as one of the masters, who was one of the few who had mastered the double bladed lightsaber. The second Jedi made her heart miss a beat, it was Anakin, dressed in all black with a black cape with a new red lightsaber. Ahsoka watched as Anakin continually smashed his lightsaber down on the master eventually cutting through his double bladed handle, cutting deep into his shoulder. The master screamed as the lightsaber fell off the edge as Anakin raised his and hit down, slicing the man's head clean off. Ahsoka bit back a scream as the head rolled off the catwalk as the body fell limp to the ground. It was Ahsoka's turn to cry.

"Come on, let's get the hell out of here."

The pair ran back into the corridor to find several clones waiting for them, as soon as they saw them they opened fire only to be dead the next second as the padawans rebounded every shot.

"Come on the exit is just up ahead."

Just as they sprint out of the exit, the pair think they are home free until…"

"Freeze Jedi."

Ready to fight Ahsoka turns round ready to kill anyone who stands in her way.

"Ahsoka?"

"Rex?"

There in front of the pair stood Rex holding his pistols at them, his helmet was off and had an earpiece instead to talk to his teammates.

"Captain Rex? Any luck killing any Jedi?"

That voice, Ahsoka instantly recognised it as Anakin's.

"Captain Rex? Do you copy?"

"Please let us go Rex. Please." Begged Barris.

"Captain?"

"There's no one at the side exit sir, continuing my search."

"Hurry up, you're missing the fun."

"Thank you Rex." Ahsoka said, with tears once again coming to her eyes.

"Come on Ahsoka." Barris urged. "We need to get as far away as possible."

"I can help you there." Replied Rex. "But first, follow me."

Before the pair could respond Rex walked off into the shadows, Ahsoka easily could of thought he was leading them into trap but her gut feeling said to follow him. she followed her gut and dragged Barris with her into the shadows where they found Rex waiting by a couple of speeders. One of them had something underneath a pile of blankets.

"I couldn't kill him, he was unarmed and wounded. It's against the soldiers code to kill unarmed opponents."

Before the pair could ask who he was on about, Rex had stepped up to the speeder and pulled the blankets back.

"Shit."

"Windu."
