Explanation of the AU

This is a sequel to "While Others Followed Orders." If you didn't read that story, please go read that now.

If it's been a while since you read it, then hopefully I can fill you in, here.

This story takes place in an alternate universe where Ahsoka didn't go to Raxus. Thus, she never met Mina Bonteri. "Heroes On Both Sides" happened when Padme went to Raxus by herself. She was delighted to spend time with Mina and Mina's husband, John. John and Mina's children, Lux and Sierra, were at boarding school.

In order to exact revenge (or to fulfill a careful plan), Dooku split up the Bonteri family. He told Lux and Sierra that their parents were dead. The kids discovered an abandoned plot to kill John and Mina, and sought shelter with Padme. This is how Lux and Ahsoka met. "A Friend in Need" and the Onderon Arc happened normally.

Dooku told John and Mina that the kids were dead, and transferred John's job to a prison on Aargonar. While he was working there, Ahsoka is captured and brought in. John is assigned guard duty over her.

Ahsoka had been poisoned on the battlefield, and was very sick. John feared for her life, and broke her out of jail. She recovered under Mina's care, and returned home.

In John's workplace, a commanding officer mentions carefully outlaid machinations that have already begun to unravel.

Now, enter our forgotten Bonteris, Lux and Sierra.
