Hey everyone! I'm gonna make a story based on Ashoka and sort of her story about what happened to her after order 66. Please excuse me if i get anything wrong... I only watched the clone wars series, and never really watched the actual star wars movies XD but i have a brother that did so I'm mostly going to ask him for help with anything. Ashoka is my favorite character, and i'm sorry to those who like rexoka, but i hate that couple, and will not be applying it here. I named the story Lightsabers and Darksabers mostly because i just finished watching a clone wars episode with death watch and these swords that looked like lightsabers but they were black. They were pretty awesome too.

I don't own the clone wars.

"So if we try getting to the base by using the trees we should be able to get inside unnoticed..."

Ashoka lay on her belly with her squadren of clones at her side. They were all facing forward. Farther away, was an enemy base. It was constructed of trees, considering trees were growing in almost any empty spot in the ground. It was so crowded with trees and undergrowth that it was almost impossible to get to the base on the ground. Luckily, the trees provided many branches that could easily be used to get across. Ashoka studied the branches, trying for the easiest way.

Her comlink blinked, and she brought her arm up to behold a hologram of Baris appeared before her. "Have you found a way?" She asked. Ashoka could see Baris was also laying on her belly with clones surrounding her.

"I think so. The trees' branches provide a way to get across. It will be a tight fit, but it's easier than the briars and thorns."

"That reminds me. I've scanned some of the thorns. They contain a poisonous toxin if it's injected into your skin. Make sure none of your squadren touch the ground."

Ashoka nodded. "I'll wait for your signal."

The comlink cut off and Ashoka remained staring ahead. The padawans had been assigned to get into the base to collect some information. Information that could maybe end this war. Ashoka was ready as she would ever be to get things going.

"poisonous thorns?" A clone said. His nickname was Raph. He seemed to chuckle. "Something new every day huh?"

"You have no idea, shiny." Rex said, turning his head. His helmet hid his emotion but Ashoka could somehow guess he had been grinning.

"Do you think there'll be thorns in the trees as well?" One spoke up, named Blackout.

"Good idea, Blackout." Ashoka pulled up a lense to see farther away and scanned the tree tops. After a moment or two of silence Ashoka finally nodded. "You're right. There's some vines of thorns wrapping around the trees. But none of them should be able to penetrate your armer. I'll just have to watch where i step." She said with a half-smile.

It became silent once more. Ashoka became a little impatient at waiting for Baris' signal. Finally, she tapped her wrist to request speaking with Baris. "Everything alright?" She asked once Baris' form popped up over her hand.

"A squadren of battle droids are passing by. We're waiting for them to go. They're heading your direction so if i give you the signal make sure they're gone, first." She whispered.

"Ugh. Stupid clankers." Ashoka grumbled. "I'll make sure."

The hologram cut off and Ashoka remained in silence again.

"What if we just take out the clankers?" One of the very newest clones spoke up.

"There's a number of reasons why, Oak." Blackout spoke. "First of all, if we fail they could alert the base. Seocnd of all, if we kill them all a signal could be sent to the base or the base will get suspicious when their lookouts don't return. third of all, any sound could alert any lookout. fourth, we-"

"Alright alright i get it." Oak lowered his head so that his chin rested on the ground.

"Don't worry, you'll learn." Ashoka giggled.

Suddenly her wrist popped to life in a beeping golden light. "That's our signal. First, anyone see any droid squads?" Ashoka asked the group, pulling up the lenses to look around. The team tapped on the side of their helmet to scan.

"I don't see anything." Raph said.

"I do. over there." Rex pointed to where a group of clankers came into view, trying really hard to get through the undergrowth.

"I hate doing this." One of the droids complained.

"I wan't to get some kind of oil change after this." Another said.

"No one's even here. This is pointless!" Another groaned, resting his hand so that his gun faced the ground.

"Everyone stay alert, anyone could be out here!" The leader snapped.

The other droids groaned. Ashoka narrowed her eyes.

Finally, they seemed to pass and Ashoka got to her feet. "Alright men, follow me." She said commandingly, leaping onto the first branch of the tree and maneuvering herself around the branches easily. She had to remind herself that the clones weren't as lithe as her so she shouldn't get too far ahead. But she remained paces in front, making sure to look out for anything else. She jumped from tree to tree, focused on reaching the base. She wished her master were with her. He barely spoke to her anymore. Now adays she spent more time with obiwan. Thankfully her friend Baris was now with her a lot, and they got to do another mission together for old times sake. Though last time they did a mission together they almot got buried alive. Fun times, right?

Ashoka pulled herself forward, swiftly and silently hugging the shadows in the trees. She made sure to be very aware of where she placed her feet. One wrong step and death would be around the corner. Or if she stepped on some kind of trap. She didnt know. She looked behind her and waited a moment for her team to catch up.

She halted finally when she was about 100 yards from the base. Baris popped up in her hand in a hologram. "I've found a way in." a hologram of the structure appeared. One part was blinking red. "It's not guarded very well, and it's a weakness in their security. We can get in and easily get to the control room."

"Got it. I'll meet you there." Ashoka said before cutting the transmission. The group remained silent as they swiftly leapt the trees getting lower and lower to get to ground level. Finally they landed in a small clearing next to the entry point they would use. She waited patiently until Baris appeared.

"Took you long enough." Ashoka said playfully.

Baris only slightly smiled. She wasn't as playful and reckless as Ashoka, and it sometimes made Ashoka feel like she was talking to a wall. But it was her personality. Ashoka had to respect that.

Baris pulled out her lightsaber and cut a square in the wall beside them. Finally it popped open and everyone moved inside.

"This seems like a piece of cake." Ashoka whispered to her friend.

"It's almost too easy..." Baris whispered suspiciously.

Ashoka looked forward, alert for anything. "Rex, have the men scout forward and make sure there are no traps."

Silence.

"Rex?"

Ashoka and Baris turned their heads to look at both their squadrens. The clones had their guns pointed at the two padawans.

Not to bad, if i do say so myself. I might warn you, I have a tendency to leave things on cliff-hangers. I do really like Baris with Ashoka. And i thought it would be cool if it happend with both of them. I wouldn't have liked it if Ashoka was alone, ya know? It would get kinda boring actually.

It was fun to write this, and didn't take that long at all because i was typing like a maniac trying to type everything in my head before i lost all my ideas. This chapter is a tad short, I personally like things that are lengthy. Not much action, not much happening, but it will get better.

I hope ;D please review! i live for them!
