Vwoosh, the bullet sped past my left ear. It had been deflected by a glowing green lightsaber. Looking up I saw the torgruta girl, mouth upturned into a snarl, bearing sharp fang like canines, eyes full of fire. Duel lightsabers in hand, standing in front of her now fully awake master. Cole tugged on my collar, snapping me back into reality. We crawled through the vent, a loud siren went of and security doors started cutting off the vent system.
Ahsoka POV
Nightmares, I got up and went to the kitchen for a glass of blue milk, I saw I had left my lightsabers on the counter, then I heard it. The unmistakable click of a gun being loaded, I realised the force felt blocked, using my lekku I swept our quarters ultra sonically. Then I heard a sharp intake of breath. "Anakin!" I panicked, running into his room, lightsabers ready, just in time to deflect a deadly bullet. From the vent I could make out the sight of two men, they were in the vents, so couldn't see them well. Anakin shot up and grabbed his lightsabers, Obi-Wan burst in. I was to busy to laugh at his crazy hair and heart boxers (I had to speak to Padme about the underwear she bought us for christmas). Obi-Wan pressed the alarm and I ran in the direction of the nearest vent exit.
Cole POV
Lux and I jumped down from the vents, narrowly missing being cut in half.
"That was close," I gasped.
"Close would suggest your out of trouble," the torgruta girl stood smugly in front of us. We turned and ran.
"You know I'm kind of used to running from chasing girls," I yelled at her.
"In you dreams buddy," using the force she closed the blast shields preventing our escape. Lux pulled out his gun, I took his lead and did the same.
"This was not part of the plan," he grunted.
"Shooting me isn't going to be part of it either," she said disarming Lux with the wave of a hand, as if on cue her master joined her followed by some clones. I pressed the release button and ran. Lux ran slightly behind me, I looked back the Jedi and clones ran after us. I could tell the torgruta girl wasn't wearing a bra as her breasts bounced as she ran (NOTE: if your a girl you know sleeping in a bra is extremely uncomfortable). I was so busy staring, as were a few clones, that Lux bumped into me and we crashed into the floor. I looked up, the clones were holding me down and cuffing me and Lux.
"Frak,"I breathed.
Lux POV
Three clones and the torgruta girl escorted us to the detention centre. As the girl locked the cell door I saw the charm on her necklace. Two dog tags and my mothers wedding ring? It was hers, I knew it. How did she get it? Did Skywalker give it to her? Did she help kill my mother?
"That ring, where did you get it?" I asked. Obviously caught off guard by the question, she looked puzzled for a second.
"It was given to me by a dear friend,"
"Did the friend tell you where they got it?! Huh! Did they say who they murdered!" I yelled in anger. Using the force she slapped me.
"Now I know why your an assassin, your a monster! The lady who gave this to me died trying to bring peace," and with that she stormed out followed by the blue clone we'd bumped into earlier. Why had I done that? I mentally slapped myself.
"Way to make friends," Cole chuckled sadly.
"How was I supposed to know her friend died?!"
"She's a Jedi, wouldn't most of her friends be in the firing line?" Cole stated. I never thought about it that way. "Get some sleep, we'll figure out a plan tomorrow," I layed down on the bottom bunk but didn't sleep. I kept replaying the events of the day over and over in my head.
Ahsoka POV
I tried to get back to sleep but I was to pumped up so I changed into my usual Jedi clothes and went to the training room. Rex was there with some other clones, so we took turns sparing for a couple hours. I only realised the time when my stomach grumbled.
"I think you stomach's trying to talk to you," Rex joked.
"Isn't it always?" I said sarcastically. We walked down to the canteen and grabbed some rations. We sat down with Echo and Cody.
"Hey commander, good job nabbing them assassins, the general owes you another one,"
"Yeah, not that he'll ever admit it," I smirked.
"That reminds me, it's your turn to interrogate them in one hour," Cody informed me.
"Careful she might kill them, and personally I wouldn't blame you, after what they said," Rex said. I smirked and touched my pouch on my belt where I kept the ring during the day.
"He's an assassin, what do you expect,"
Cole POV
I was so tired, both the old man and Skywalker had interrogated me. Lux and i I had been separated for interrogation, a clone told me commander Tano would be interrogating me now, I won't tell him anything, he's just a stupid clone. The doors opened and the torgruta girl walked in.
"Hello, I'm commander Tano," she announced. S-she was commander Tano?
"The pleasures all mine," I cooed. She put a cup of coffee in front of me.
"Thirsty...?"
"Cole," I mentally slapped myself. I had managed to hide my name from everyone and then she offers me a coffee and I melt! She smirked and perched on the edge of the table. "And do you have a first name?"
"Ahsoka,"
"What a lovely name for a lovely girl," she didn't look impressed.
"Many better than you have tried," she claimed. "Now I was wondering what would possibly possess someone like you to kill master Skywalker,"
"Um, well, er..."
"Exactly, because there is no good reason. Dooku is such a slimo sending boys to do his dirty work,"
"Don't say anything against him, he's a great man!" I shouted.
"You defend a murderer?"
"I defend my father!" I yelled, she seemed a bit shocked but recovered quickly, "well, um, I mean he took Lux and I in when we lost our families,"
"Lux, huh?" Damn I gave her his name, "so you both lost you families when you were young?" She seemed genuinely concerned.
"When I was 7, Lux's mother died a year ago," I mentally slapped myself for telling her anything.
"Shame," there was a long pause.
"So anything you wanna tell me about the assassination attempt?" She leaned over the able and I could see down the opening over her chest, but she didn't notice.
"Um, well, Dooku wanted Skywalker out the way,"
"Is that all?"
"I'm the beauty, Lux is the brains,"
"Thank you Cole," she smiled and turned to leave.
"See ya darling," she rolled her eyes.
Lux POV
I could hear Cole through the wall, faintly, only key words, well actually only mine and his names. I couldn't believe that he told her all that, urgh!
"Hello Lux," I looked up at the stunning alien in front of me, "I am commander Tano," she handed me a cup of coffee.
"I seem at a disadvantage, you know my name, but I don't know yours,"
"Ahsoka," she said as if it was no trouble.
"That's a beautiful name,"
"Thanks, now if you don't mind I have some questions,"
"How about a question for a question?" She rolled her eyes but nodded.
"Why did you try to kill master Skywalker?"
"I have my reasons," she raised an eye mark.
"Look, mr...?" She looked impatient.
"Bonteri," she froze knocking over her coffee.
"Bonteri?"
"Yes, what? you know me?"
"Your mother..."
"You know how your master murdered her!"
"What? He's never met her!"
"Yeah he accompanied a senator to Raxus last year!"
"That was me,"
"You killed her?"
"What? No! Dooku's assassins did. Mina was my friend!"
"Your lying!"
"No I'm not," she looked deep in to my eyes.
"Why did she give you the ring?" I asked still suspicious.
"I commented on how pretty it was and Mina described her first date with Daser and how the minute she looked into his blue eyes she knew he was the one. She said my eyes reminded her of his and then insisted I have it, to remember her. But I will never forget her," I was gobsmacked. That was my mother all right.
"So Dooku?"
"Is a lying cold blooded killer," I curled my fist into a ball.
"The Jedi, Dooku, can't I trust anyone!"
"I'm the first Jedi you've met right?"
"Well, um, yes,"
"Look at me, not so bad am I?" I looked her up and down.
"No, not bad at all," I said flirtatiously.
"Urgh," she rolled her eyes."Well now I know that all boys are the same, republic of separatist," I panicked slightly.
"You've only met three,"
"What?"
"How many separatists have you met? And droids don't count,"
"We'll apart from military offer ears like Grievas and Venturess, not many, only you mother, you and Cole,"
"Look at me am I so bad?"
Ahsoka POV
Why were the cute ones always the bad guys?
"I suppose not, minus trying to murder one of my best friends,"
"You and your master are friends,"
"Yeah, he's like my father,"
"A father?"
"Yeah, he's my father, senator Amidala is my mother, Rex over there is my brother," i said pointing at him through the window.
"What about your real family?" He asked. I sat there unsure of how to answer.
"I don't know, I was found abandoned when i was a baby and taken to the Jedi temple," I hugged my knees and stared into the wall.
Lux POV
She was abandoned as a baby? And I nearly killed her nonbiological father?
"I'm so sorry,"
"Why? It's not your fault,"
"But I nearly killed Skywalker, I'm sorry. I guess I never thought of Jedi as people,"
"Your not the first," she giggled. Actually giggled!
"This feels odd, I mean your a Jedi but your so nice and easy to talk to,"
"Chillin' with the villain, my master's gonna kill me," we laughed. We sat there talking for hours, laughing and admiring what the other had done, well manly me since Ahsoka had done more.
Authors Note: I don't usually update so soon, so aren't you lucky. Thanks to everyone who commented on my first chapter, your all awesome! Like the name Daser? I just pressed random keys ;)
