On the Run
I breathed heavily, I was running from the traitor and my master was gone and my heart broken. How can he keep coming? The chase has been going on for hours. Why I asked myself? Why did he turn? Why did he hate so suddenly? Why did he kill everyone I knew and had loved? Where was he? Where was my master that I once loved so much? I heard the familiar hum of the traitor's lightsaber near me and I quickly jumped and faced him. He did not look the same; he now had a mask, which covered his face. I almost didn't believe it was he. But after a few minutes I realized it was him but in him was something I had never seen before this day…. hate and hunger for revenge. What had I done? What had I done to make him so angry? I knew what I had done…. I had done the right thing.

He shouted at me in his droid-like voice, "Ashoka, you know what's happened but I know you are different, I will show, you the way to save people's lives and you will have more power than you could ever imagine. The Jedi are traitors, you and I both know this to be true."
"Master, what are you talking about? The Jedi have always wanted the best for the galaxy! The thirst for power is a trait of the dark for from fear does the need of more power comes."
"Then you have been blinded from what is right in front of you and I am embarrassed to even believe you were once my pupil! Because of your treachery and deception and allegiance to the double-crossing Jedi, I must kill you as well… my former apprentice."
And with that he came towards me, his lightsaber on for the kill. I knew his form well but he used aggressive this time and I knew I could never disarm him let alone kill him and even if I did disarm him, would I have the guts to kill him? I parried a few times and tried to tire him while I planned my escape. I knew from experience how to hot wire a ship, having learned that long ago from Anakin. Having a plan, I force pushed Anakin to the ground and ran as fast as I could to the nearest hanger. As soon as I entered I was fired at and not by the usual droids, no this time I was by my own men who had once been so loyal to me. Fighting back the emotions that struck me, I went through the hanger and killed every clone in my way. I couldn't think about what I was doing, all I knew was that I had to get away, far away. Anakin was hot on my trail and the shoot out by the clones had not turned the odds in my favor.
I got in the first ship I saw which in my luck was a Jedi starship whose passenger, I saw was dead near the ship, a body that looked similar to Twi'lek. I thought to myself if a Jedi Knight could not survive then how could I? I hopped in; quickly I got it running but almost not quick enough. I had to wait a few seconds to get the engines running but my former master was almost already there. Almost as soon as he had been but a step away from my ship, I took off. I battled my way past the clone gunners, now hot on my trail. I quickly shot them down but I could almost feel my master smiling. He knew I could go nowhere without the separate piece that let the Jedi Starfighter make the jump to hyperspace. He knew it was almost a complete victory for him. I could go nowhere.
Back to Present
I faced him. I had my lightsaber on ready to defend myself. He fought aggressively, almost too much for me. It was a difficult fight for both of us for bedsides fighting each other; we are on Improcco, an iciest planet in the Coruscant System. I had wanted to go farther but without the other hyperspace piece to the Jedi starship, I wasn't able to go anywhere besides the Coruscant System. As we fought we had to balance our selves on the ice. I was weakening, he knew it and I knew it. As we were fighting he managed to cut the tip of my lekku off. It hurt like crazy. I had never felt so much pain. The warm blood spilled on to the white, icy surface but almost instantly froze. I couldn't last much longer in the cold and in fighting my master. I was smaller and faster than my former master. I had escaped before and I knew I had to escape again. Our blades met, HE pushed hard and I pushed hard. He was stronger than I was. I quickly stopped pushing back and ran. He went a little off balance for a second but only for a second. In that second though I ran. My scanty clothing was not for this weather and my lekkus were nearly frozen. Finally I made it back to the place where our ships had landed. I ran into the ship in which Anakin had pursued me, the Twilight. I was familiar with this ship so right away I was off and just before I flew off, I saw a small black speck on the white blanket. Now, I was a wanted "traitor of the Empire."
