The Fate of Ahsoka Tano
Having slain the roomful of padawans, Vader continued down the hall to the next chamber.
"What? Sky Guy?"
Vader stopped and slowly turned. Whenever he heard that voice, it was all too soon. And that hated nickname!
Ahsoka Tano, his former apprentice, stood there, beaming up at him. "I just dropped back to Corusant, hoping to catch you and Artooie."
Vader groaned under his breath. He thought he'd be rid of Ahsoka forever when Yoda had permanently stationed her on Seleucia. But, like a short-circuited lightsaber, she always managed to show up.
"I hope you haven't forgotten me."
"Oh no, Snips"
"So, whatcha doing?"
What was he supposed to tell her? Murdering Jedi?
"I just finished killing all the younglings."
Ahsoka burst out laughing, a shockingly annoying high pitched giggling. "No, be serious."
Vader drew his lightsaber and held it beneath her nose. "I am serious."
Ahsoka's eyes grew as large as her mouth. "But you can't do that!" she cried.
He'd always despised that day when she'd been made his apprentice, without being asked or warned. And having to cart her around the galaxy with him like an oversized carry-bag.
"Try to stop me, Snips," he taunted.
"Skkyyyyyy Guuuuyyyy…" she whined.
Ugh. He'd forgotten her whining. While she followed him, she'd been the most whining brat of an apprentice he'd ever know. And it was to his outrange that Mace Windu had once said as much about himself. He apologized of course, but the insult had been branded to Anakin Skywalker.
That was why Mace Windu had died.
And now Ahsoka would die.
Ahsoka looked at him, terrified. "I'm going to tell Master Yoda on you."
"Try, Snips. Just try, I dare you."
She drew her lightsaber and ignited it. The blade shown bright pink.
Vader snorted in disgust.
With a war-cry, she lunched at him and sent him stumbling to the ground in a complicated lightsaber-slash/ kick move that he had certainly never taught her.
Vader leapt up and slashed at his former apprentice viciously. He knocked the weapon from her hand.
Laughing, she drew another pink-bladed lightsaber from beneath her robes.
Where in space had she gotten that?
No matter, he could defeat her only too easily either way. They slashed; they parried.
Ahsoka never seemed to tire.
Vader refused to tire.
They were at a standstill.
But of course his dark side training far surpassed her training.
He had her pinned down. Both her lightsabers were gone. Along with the various other weapons she had brought up, as if she was a walking arsenal. Mary Sue to the end.
She looked up at him with wide, scared eyes.
"Gotcha, Snips."
The last thing she ever saw was the yellow Sith eyes.
Vader breathed a long sign of relief.
For good measure, Vader stuck his lightsaber in Dave Filloni and killed him too.
For a brief moment, there was peace in the galaxy then Vader went off to kill more Jedi. And all the anti-Ahsoka fans ceased smashing their computers whenever they watched a Clone Wars episode because they knew there was a happy ending.
Ahsoka had died.
THE END
