Thanks for being patient with me guys. I am so sorry this took so long. Netflix decided it wanted to be an ass every time I tried watching the rest of the movie by not playing. Every. Single. Time.
Like I said in the last chapter I'm still looking who I want to be added to the angel list or to have an angel. For example I'm putting two siblings from the show as angels for a mother and son duo. Let me know if you guys have any suggestions.
Great a shield to block our cannons. Knowing Anakin he'll want to go in there and possibly put his life on the line. Again.
Ahsoka's thoughts weren't far off. In the end the plan was for Anakin and Ahsoka to sneak past the Separatist droids and destroy the shield generator while Obi-wan distracted the separatist general with a fake surrender.
At the moment the angel and mortal were running towards the shield's generator.
"Stay close," Anakin advised Ahsoka from behind their pile of rubble. "You can never be too careful."
Ahsoka looked at Anakin in disbelief. He has no right to say that.
Scanning the area, the young angel saw nothing but boxes, crystal, rubble, and the generator.
"Let's go." With that said Ahsoka rushes in, much like Anakin I'm afraid.
"Wait!" Anakin called.
"We're almost there!" Ahsoka yelled over her shoulder. "It's right there!"
Just after she tripped and activated one of the many alarms around the generator.
"I said wait!" Anakin muttered to himself, sounding a bit like Obi-wan when would get himself in a bind during his padawan years.
"Uh-oh."
The ground exploded, sending Ahsoka flying towards the generator and droids popping out the ground like daisies.
"Forget about the droids!" Anakin yelled, cutting down several droids at once. "Set the charges!"
Ahsoka crawled towards her target, but sadly one droid did notice her and forced the Togrutan angel into an aggressive defensive position. With a swing of her lightsaber and a push with the force the droid was no more, but did activate other daisy droids.
"Whose side are you on anyway?"
"Sorry!" Ahsoka winced. "Setting the charges."
One by one the charges were set, but when Ahsoka turned around she saw something that scared her but didn't surprise her. Anakin was being backed into a corner by the droids.
"I could use a little help!"
Using her montrals, Ahsoka felt the vibrations around her, and there one thing she noticed that was good news in her book. If the wall behind Anakin fell over, he would fit right through the hole near the top.
"Skyguy, don't move!" After Ahsoka closed her eyes and concentrated on pulling down the wall.
Anakin nearly had a heart attack as the wall came closer and closer.
"You could have had me killed!" Anakin yelled right after, completely unharmed.
Mother, how could I end up with such an ungrateful mortal? Ahsoka thought to herself, left eye twitching. "I knew what I was doing!"
"I had everything under control!"
"I just saved your life!" For like the fifth time this month too!
"Did you get the charges set?"
"Yes," Ahsoka spat, feeling insulted.
"Then what are you waiting for?"
They didn't break eye contact as Ahsoka blew up the shield, leading Obi-wan and the troops to take the battle as a victory towards the Republic.
Ahsoka didn't feel very victorious though. Ahsoka watched as more and more Republic ships came in, her dread sinking in.
Oh sweet Force, he's going to send me back, send me to another master. It was hard enough with just him going off world, but me going with another master? It's going to be impossible.
Anakin looked over in the moment where Ahsoka was lost in her thoughts and worries. He saw how upset she was, how upset she was at herself, and he knew that feeling.
Anakin took a seat next to her. "You're reckless little one. You never would have made it as Obi-wan's padawan."
I knew it, this is the moment he's going to tell me that I'm going back to the temple. Ahsoka closed her eyes and willed herself not to cry.
"But you might make it as mine."
That simple sentence caused Ahsoka to look up, and Anakin could see the hope in her eyes.
His padawan? Anakin's not sending me back? Oh thank the Force!
You're welcome young angel.
The new master and padawan duo hopped aboard a ship with Rex and another clone.
"Good job General," Rex said. He glanced down at Ahsoka, and a small smile formed. "You too kid."
"Thanks for the ride Rex," Anakin said as he and Ahsoka met up with Obi-wan and Yoda.
"Master Obi-wan, Master Yoda," Anakin greeted the two.
"Hm, trouble I hear, with your new padawan," Yoda said, getting right to the point.
Worry etched on both Anakin's and Ahsoka's faces as Anakin looked towards his old master.
"I was explaining the situation to Master Yoda," Obi-wan explained.
"If not ready for a padawan you are than perhaps Obi-wan, we can-"
Anakin was quick to interrupt. "Now wait a minute. I'll admit that Ahsoka is a little ruff around the edges."
Ahsoka was not ready to hear the rest. No! Don't send me back! Don't give me to another master! Mother how can this be happening? He just accepted me as a padawan!
"But with a great deal of training and patience, she might amount to something."
Ahsoka let out a breath of relief. The angel was staying with her mortal.
"Then go with you, she will. To the Teth system."
"Teth? That's wild space, there aren't even droids in the sector."
"Kidnapped, Jabba the Hutt's son has been."
"You want me to rescue Jabba's son?" Anakin spat out, sounding horribly offended.
Obi-wan jumped in. "Anakin, we'll need Jabba's alliance to stay a head of Dooku."
"Negotiate the treaty with Jabba, Obi-wan will," Yoda ordered. "Find the renegades that hold Jabba's son, your mission will be, Skywalker."
"Don't worry Master, it sounds fun. I'll go get Rex and get the troops organized," Ahsoka chimed in, feeling Anakin's anger growing more and more by the second. With that she turned to find Rex.
As Ahsoka ran in the general direction of the clone caption she swore she heard Obi-wan making a joke of how she'll turn out all right if Anakin taught her what he was taught. Then she heard Anakin saying he believed Obi-wan had something to do with her being placed with Anakin.
Ahsoka did have one question though. Why is Anakin so angry?
Once in the ship and off to the Teth system, Ahsoka began to let her mind go through memories she had of watching Anakin during her three years with her mother. She was trying to figure out Anakin's personal grudge with the Hutts. Yes, Ahsoka knew they were slavers and had done other horrible things, but she could see that Anakin hated the Hutts with a passion that only could be when an issue was personal.
There it is. Ahsoka had found the right memory. I forgot that the Hutts owned Anakin and Shmi before they were won by Watto. That would explain Anakin's hatred.
"Kid."
Ahsoka looked over to see a group of clones, including Rex.
"We were just wondering, how did you and General Skywalker managed to destroy that generator?" Rex asked for the group.
Ahsoka had to hide a mischievous grin. It was time to entertain some clones.
"So there was a wall with a hole in the middle and I pull it down. In which destroyed and saved the general." Ahsoka was slightly exaggerating the tale with arm movements.
By that time Anakin had walked back over from his talk with the scouts.
"Is that true sir?" One of the clones asked.
"Well, mostly," Anakin admitted. This caused a laugh from the clones, after the group dispersed with Anakin and Ahsoka walking in one direction.
"I suppose this would be a good time to teach you that a Jedi is humble, my young padawan."
"Sorry, just trying to keep the boys inspired is all." Ahsoka smirked.
I better let some of Anakin's darkness out before this mission truly begins.
Taking away their mortal's darkness was an ability every angel had. In a way it's similar to healing and does best with skin to skin contact but just being close will do. Ahsoka let her inner self travel towards Anakin's darkness, while her outer being just looked lost in thought.
Anakin's darkness looked like void of pure black, it's not his mind as Ahsoka respected to stay away from there, but you may call it a part of Anakin's soul. Ahsoka was the only speck of light in the pit of black. As always the darkness swirled around Ahsoka, as if she was its prey. Ahsoka took a deep breath and let herself touch the darkness.
It was a battle of wills, the darkness and it's corrupting thoughts and feelings against Ahsoka's light. The dakness uses feelings such as lonliness and pain against Ahsoka, but the togrutan angel thinks of happier times. Like the few years she spent with her mother. It takes a few minutes but Ahsoka's will wins out and the darkness turns to light with a little bit of dakness left.
"It's a bit more than what I usually feel comfortable with leaving but it will have to do," Ahsoka muttered to herself.
Yes, Ahsoka did leave a small part of Anakin's darkness, all angels do this. For they know that there has to be a balance, and for that balance you need darkness.
When Ahsoka came back to the present she saw that she was on a ship with Anakin talking to Obi-wan. They were heading towards a monastery guarded by droids.
"Stay close to me Snips, if you can." Anakin smirked.
"It won't be a problem," Ahsoka said, sounding a bit sassier than she meant to.
"This isn't practice Ahsoka," Anakin warned.
"I know, and I won't get you killed."
The ship suddenly jerked due to the fire from the droids. Anakin demanded the blast shields up and to get under the droids' fire. The shields went up, a red light came on, and everyone was prepared to fight. Red blinked to green, the doors opened, and the troops charged.
"So this is where the fun begins," Ahsoka said as they made it to the base of the mountain where the monastery rested on top.
"Race you to the top," Anakin challenged.
"I'll give you a head start."
"Your mistake."
The race was on.
Anakin and Ahsoka raced up the vines, deflecting blaster shots with their lightsabers. Behind them were the clones using their cables. An idea formed in Ahsoka's mind as she jumped from her vine onto one of the AT-ETs.
The Padawan helped defend the walker she was by deflecting blast shots. Sadly flying droids made things a bit more difficult and caused the walker to lose part of its grip.
Anakin, sensing his new padawan's distress quickly abandoned his vine and cut down all the flying droids and hijacking one of their vehicles.
"Gotta keep up!" Anakin laughed.
"No fair!" Ahsoka exclaimed.
The battle continued with Anakin racing to the top and the rest of the troops following behind. At the top Anakin was cutting droids down one by one and just as he thought he cut them all down three more rolled out.
"Blat it Ahsoka, I told you to stay close to me," Anakin muttered.
Turn around then. Ahsoka thought as she gave the signal to blast the last three droids.
"I can't get much closer Skyguy."
"I knew you get here Snips, eventually," Anakin bantered.
"Always in time to save your life."
Unknown to the two Jedi and the clones three figures stood at the top of the monastery.
"The droids have done their part," Ventress said.
"Now it's time for yours." The younger one smirked as she looked at the droid between her and Ventress.
Back on the ground Anakin let his suspicions be known that he believed Dooku had a hand in the kidnapping of Jabba's son.
"We should be okay, the hard part is over now," Ahsoka said with enthusiasm.
"I really wished you wouldn't say that," Anakin sighed.
They journeyed inside, where they met a droid who called itself the caretaker of the monastery.
"Where is the Hutt?" Anakin demanded.
"The battle bots kept their prisoner on the detention level," the droid answered. "I must warn you it is very dangerous down there. No place for a servant girl."
"Do servants carry these?" Ahsoka growled as she activated her lightsaber. One thing to know about the angels is that they absolutely hated being called a servant or anything like that. They were angels, protectors to their mortals, a companion, but they are no servant. To call them that would be an insult.
"I am a Jedi knight." Ahsoka deactivated her lightsaber when she noticed Anakin's glare. Her lekku stripes turning a darker shade of blue, the togruta version of a blush. "Or soon will be."
"A thousand apologies, young one," the droid said as Ahsoka walked past.
"Rex, stay here and keep your eyes open. We'll get the hutt," Anakin ordered.
"Yes sir." Rex nodded.
In another room filled with droids Ventress talked with Dooku while her companion looked on.
Ventress needs to learn to patience. She thought. All the greatest plans take patience and they are usually the most successful.
As the two Jedi went further into the monastery Ahsoka began to feel cold. It wasn't like the normal body temperature kind of cold but more like an inner feeling.
"You alright Snips?" Anakin asked, taking note of Ahsoka's silence.
"I feel cold master, something is off in here," Ahsoka answered.
Anakin's eyes narrowed, if Ahsoka felt like that then he had a bad feeling something is going to go wrong.
"Master we're walking into a trap," Ahsoka complained. She easily noticed the droids hiding in the shadows, waiting to attack them.
"I know," Anakin said, like he didn't have a care in the world.
"We just past two more."
"I know."
"Can't I just take care of them, it would make me feel better."
"Go ahead."
With the okay Ahsoka took down the droids that had been following them.
"Not bad, you managed to destroy their weapons first, but you did miss one," Anakin praised before destroying the last droid that was right behind him.
Always have to be the show off, don't you Skyguy?
They stopped at a door where one of the appalling smells leaked from.
Oh force! Ahsoka thought, the smell hitting hard. Only my uncle could make a smell this rancid. How can something smell this bad? He . . . he's so cute!
Turns out Jabba's son was only a baby, a little huttlet.
Rex contacted Anakin, the area secured but still no sign of Obi-wan.
"Master what are we going to do?" Ahsoka asked.
"Well since you think it's cute, you get to carry it!" Anakin said with fake excitement.
Ahsoka rolled her eyes. I have a feeling you would have made me carry him anyway.
The two walked safely back to the rest of the troops, Ahsoka carrying the struggling huttlet the whole way.
"What do you think of your little buddy now?" Anakin asked with laughter in his voice. "Still think he's cute?"
"No, he's reminding me of you more and more."
Anakin looked horrified and deeply offended at the comparison.
Ahsoka was about to say something else when she accidently brought the huttlet's forehead close to her lips. He was burning up. "Master I think he's sick. He's burning up with a fever."
Anakin put his own hand on the huttlet's forehead. "You're right, we need to get him back to the ship. Trooper! Get me a backpack."
Anakin took the crying huttlet from Ahsoka and struggled to put him into the backpack.
"Will you just let me do it!" Honestly, he's sick and he's a baby, you need a softer touch.
"I hate hutts."
With the huttlet in the backpack, who Ahsoka now called little Stinky, they finally managed to get into contact with Obi-wan. Obi-wan also shared Anakin's belief that Dooku was behind the kidnapping and he believed that they were being used to get Jabba to join the separatists.
The conversation was broken when separatist droid ships flew in, guns blazing. There were too many and they were forced to fall back into the monastery. Anakin planned to hold off the droids until Obi-wan arrived with reinforcements.
"Master we don't have time for that," Ahsoka argued. "Our mandate was to get this hutt back to Tatooine and time is running out."
"Alright then Ahsoka, do you have a plan?" Anakin challenged.
"Possibly, if R2 is willing."
The said droid beeped happily.
Anakin and Ahsoka walked down to a control panel where R2 hooked up.
"If there's a way out of here, Artooy can find it."
"Make it quick," Anakin ordered. He glanced down at Ahsoka's back and noticed the huttlet was asleep. "Finally asleep. Put him down and get some rest yourself, it's been a long day for you little one."
"I can hold him Master. Besides I used to pull all-nighters trying to heal you before. I can handle this.
"Suit yourself Ahsoka." Anakin shrugged. "I don't see why you won't listen to me."
"I do listen Master, I just hate being treated like a youngling." Ahsoka confessed.
"You must be patient. What are you trying to prove anyway?" Anakin knew that she was trying to prove something, he had seen that determine look in her eyes in his own when he was nine years old and trying to prove he was more than a slave.
That I can protect you from the darkness. That I can help you keep balance within yourself. That even though I have no other force sensitive siblings I'm not just a mere accident and I can help you through your journey in the Force.
There it was, Ahsoka's true fear. It was her deepest secret. All angels knew that force sensitives don't have angels due to them already being linked to the Force. They all knew that force sensitives have to find their own way. Ahsoka felt that if she was just an accident and there was nothing she could do to help Anakin, that what good was she? Ahsoka could never say this out loud though.
"That I'm not too young to be a padawan."
"Ahsoka," Anakin sighed as he got up from his seat. "A very wise Jedi once told me that there are no accidents. It is the will of the force that you are at my side, I just want to keep you there in one piece."
Ahsoka said nothing but put the backpack down. The cold feeling, it returned. It was stronger this time. Something was going to happen, Ahsoka just knew it, and she had a suspicion it had something to do with her Uncle.
Outside Ventress was growing more and more annoyed with the droids incompetence. She finally slashed the lock with her lightsaber.
"Ventress, you must learn patience," Ventress' companion chuckled.
"And you must learn to respect your elders, little one."
The younger of the two females let out a growl. "I am no youngling!"
"Of course you're not," Ventress let out her own chuckle.
The door opened and battle began again. It was a short lived battle with the sepratists taking control.
"Seal off all exits, make sure no one leaves," Ventress orded.
"Yes Misstress," the droid replied.
Her companion sensed it first but Ventress was quick to deflect the shot from the clone caption. After she threw him into a force choke.
"Where is Skywalker?"
"I don't talk to separatist scum!" The clone caption spat.
"Drop him Ventress, if he won't tell us where Skywalker is, than he is of no use," Ventress' companion said.
Ventress did drop the clone, but tried a new tactic of using the mind trick on him. It worked.
The younger female looked down into the monastery, a new and odd feeling hitting her. It was strange, she never felt like this before. She felt almost warm, and dare she say it she felt at peace. She didn't know what to make of it, but she did know that she didn't want to let it go. Skywalker's angel has to be with him, my cousin is with him. Father is the feeling you get around my aunt?
"Mistresses, we must inform you that Republic reinforcements have arrived," one of the droids informed to two sith ladies.
Ventress looked at her companion. "We must hurry."
Her companion nodded and contacted the droids guarding the entrance. "Hold off the Jedi warships. Ventress and I have to complete our mission, do you understand?"
"Yes sir, I mean ma'am. Err, sir, uh ma'am. Launch all fighters."
The young female cut the connection. "Well Ventress it looks like it's time for a hunt. How I love a hunt."
Meanwhile in a backdoor landing bay that R2 found, Anakin and Ahsoka were trying to get into contact with someone, but the transmissions kept being jammed. They were pinned down by droids on one side and on the other the door was shut but two red bladded lightsabers didn't give them a good feeling.
Stinky started screaming again and pointing in a random direction.
"Not now Stinky," Ahsoka said.
Stinky didn't give up though, and eventually Ahsoka did look over to see what Stinky was pointing at.
"Master! There's another landing dock, with a ship!"
Before Anakin could reply the two red lightsabers finished their cutting and two figures stepped through the hole.
"General Skywalker," a raspy voice said, "I see you have a new pet."
Pet? PET! Who in the name of the force is calling me a pet? Ahsoka mentally screamed.
"Be careful, she bites." Anakin being Anakin had to make a smart comment.
Ahsoka glared at the new players in the game.
One was a hairless harpy with gray skin and purple markings.
The younger one, something felt different about her. She was a Mikkian, about Ahsoka's age, with pale purple skin that was highlighted dark red at the end of her head-tendrils. Her head-tendrils were long, and formed around her head like hair being moved by the wind. Golden eyes seemed cheerful with a promise of pain. She wore a blood red dress that went to her knees with a small V-neck collar, and off the shoulder sleeves that came to a point just past her elbow. A black sash tied around her waist over her dress with black tights and boots under it. Sitting on her head like a headband is her headdress of silver swirling in delicate patterns till it came together in the middle where a black pearl stayed. Resting on her hip was a lightsaber.
Something about her, it was something Ahsoka couldn't place. She felt foreign, yet familiar at the same time. It put her on edge but also made her feel strangely a bit peaceful.
"Ventress," Anakin hissed at the older woman. "I see you've gained a youngling."
"My name is Lila," spat the Mikkian, activating her red bladed lightsaber. "You'll do well to remember that Jedi, as well as your pet."
"Well Lila, my name is Ahsoka, and I'm no one's pet." Ahsoka sassed at the other girl, activating her own lightsaber.
The two duos clashed against each other, Anakin vs Ventress while Ahsoka vs Lila.
"Angel scum," Lila hissed as she and Ahsoka traded blows.
Ahsoka slashed downwards and momentarily held Lila's lightsaber in place. "I'm assuming you're a child of my uncle then?"
Lila smirked, freeing her lightsaber and then bringing it in an upwards swing. "That would be correct."
Ahsoka blocked the attack, and the blows kept coming from the each side, neither of them gaining.
"I am the one who was born to be your opposite, to corrupt while you heal. I am made out of darkness while you are light. I am the shadows!"
Their conversation was interrupted when Anakin flew in on a huge bug and knocked Lila into a wall.
"Hop on Snips!"
"Like I have a choice!" Ahsoka yelled as she grabbed hold of the bug.
The platform was destroyed, Ahsoka and Anakin already flying towards the ship on the other platform.
"It's scrape metal," Ahsoka said taking one look at the junk plie of a ship.
"Just prep the engines. Assuming it has engines." Anakin muttered the last part to himself.
Ahsoka walked towards the ship, but quickly noticed the droid who dared called her a servant. "You're that care taker droid. I wonder what happened to you."
The droid began stuttering and things turned bad for him when a few separatist droids walked out of the ship.
"You tin platted traitor!" Ahsoka yelled.
"Blast her!" The cowardly droid commanded as he ran onto the ship.
"She's at it again," Anakin laughed as he watched Ahsoka destroy more droids. I myself had a little laugh at that as well.
"Don't you dare," the care taker droid said, sounding high and mighty, before Ahsoka took his head off.
Lila keeps her head down the whole time Ventress is talking to Dooku.
"We will double our efforts Master," Ventress said.
"For your sakes you better."
Lila sensed him first and Ventress was quick to activate her lighsabers.
"Master Kenobi!" Ventress almost sounded like she had a cheer in her voice. "Always chasing after Skywalker."
"Well Anakin always leaves quit a mess. Which usually leads me to you," Obi-wan replied. He noticed Lila almost immediately, and was surprised. He remembered the sith's rule of two. He was also surprised how young she was, she couldn't be older than Ahsoka. "And who are you young one?"
"My name is Lila and if you call me that again I'll cut you in half!" Lila growled out.
"My, my you're a feisty one," Obi-wan said with small smile.
"She's also not a part of this battle." Ventress looked towards the Mikkian. "Go find Skywalker."
Lila nodded and ran.
How am I going to find them? Lila pondered for a moment before remembering something she learned from some of her older siblings, the eldest brother and sister actually. No matter what I do there will be a bond, no matter how small, with my opposite cousin. I can track her down, and she will lead me to Skywalker.
"Now let's get Stinky out of here," Anakin said. Unfortunately the ship wouldn't start.
"Are you serious?" Ahsoka groaned out.
"Relax Snips." Anakin turned towards his droid. "R2 see if you can spark the ignition cufflers."
A moment and a few beeps later they were still grounded.
"Nope, that's not it. Let's try lifting the fuel lifters all the way."
Like magic the ship came to life and they were off.
"Oh no," Ahsoka muttered as she felt Stinky's forehead. He was getting worse. "Master we need to get Stinky to a medic immediately if we have any hope of getting him back to his father still breathing."
"We promised to help Rex," Anakin argued.
Ahsoka could see that Anakin didn't want to leave his men behind, and neither did she but Stinky needed help first.
"If we wait any longer Stinky is not going to make it," Ahsoka argued back.
With great reluctance Anakin contacted Rex. "Rex, I'm sorry but we can't come help you."
"That's alright sir. The mission comes first," Rex replied.
The battle in the sky was just as destructive as the battle on the ground. So much so that Anakin and Ahsoka had to fly the grease bucket to Tatooine. With Stinky getting worse Ahsoka looked for medical supplies. She found something, a hologram of a medical droid appeared, and scanned Stinky. He told her to give Stinky a booster through his mouth.
Ahsoka sighed, "Alright sweetie, got some yum yums for you."
Stinky absolutely refused to take the medicine and fought with Ahsoka on it.
Ahsoka grew more and more frustrated. "You'll take this and like it!"
Stinky finally took the medicine.
"There you go." Ahsoka smiled. "I hope I wasn't like this for you mother."
The fever finally broke.
Tatooine was in sight. Ahsoka smiled at the mission being almost done. Anakin grumbled about dust balls and having to look at them again.
"How's Stinky holding up?" Anakin eventually asked.
"Better now that his fever broke. Even you have to admit he's cute when asleep."
"I'll admit I like him a lot better when he's quiet, but only a little."
Silence fell over them with Anakin telling R2 to fix the front shields but leave the rear ones alone. A little risky in Ahsoka's opinion but Anakin said that with a good offense they didn't need a defense. Immediately after the scanners picked up enemy ships that attacked from behind.
"The guns are stuck in the forward position! It's too bad we don't have the rear shields fixed," Ahsoka said sarcastically.
"Not now Ahsoka!" Anakin growled. "R2 see if you can get those guns out of forward position!"
"Sometimes a good defense is the best offense," Ahsoka sassed.
"Just go secure your little huttlet!" Anakin snapped.
"None of us are secured with you flying!"
Ahsoka got up to make sure Stinky was okay. Due to Anakin's fancy flying he sent Ahsoka and Stinky into a wall, which woke up Stinky.
"Great! You woke the baby!" Ahsoka yelled.
"I'm a little busy here!"
One of the enemy ships made the mistake of flying out in front of Anakin and got shot down by the still locked guns.
"Got him!" Anakin cheered.
"And the other one?" Ahsoka looked up from her spot on the floor, one hand holding onto the wall for support, the other holding Stinky.
Before Anakin could reply they got hit from behind and sent Ahsoka, Stinky, and R2 across the floor.
"I told you we needed the rear shields!"
"I get it Ahsoka! R2! Get those guns fixed!"
Ahsoka was pushing R2 with her back and struggling to keep hold of Stinky. Thankfully Anakin moved the ship slightly which was just the push Ahsoka needed. R2 got the guns turned around and shot the enemy ship down.
"Strap in Snips."
Ahsoka winced when she saw Anakin's face. She knew the look on his face very well. "You got that look again, that you're about to do something either reckless or crazy."
Anakin raised an eyebrow. "There's a look?"
Ahsoka nodded. "Hard to miss."
Anakin just shook his head and contacted Obi-wan.
A small blue hologram of Obi-wan appeared on the controls. "Kenobi here. Are on Tatooine yet?"
"Almost Master." Anakin tried to explain the situation but Obi-wan already knew.
"Anakin did you get shot down again?"
"Yes." Ahsoka answered for Anakin. For the hundredth time too. Ahsoka wasn't exaggerating either, she had some access to Anakin's mind, just small parts that he wouldn't even realize she touched. Every memory of him crashing a ship are a part of that small portion.
Anakin of course blamed the ship. "It's too slow! I hadn't gotten the chance to modify it yet."
"I'm still cleaning up your other mess," Obi-wan sighed, sounding like a tired parent. After the transmission ended.
Time to prepare for one of Anakin's crash landings. Ahsoka thought as she gripped Stinky and the seat as hard as she could.
Across the galaxy, on Coruscant itself, two other angels lifted their heads from their small card game. The male of the two could sense a new angel was in some sort of trouble. The female angel just stared at the male.
The male angel was Prince Blake Organa of Aldderan. He was the adopted son of Bail and Breha Organa. The boy was fifteen years old with slightly pale skin that contrasted with his dark black hair. His hair done in a messy style, mainly because the boy refused to do anything with it or let anyone touch it. His forest green eyes could make almost anyone tell the truth. At the moment he felt something was wrong, and he knew it had something to do with one of his siblings.
Sitting next to Blake was Naboo's ambassador, Millie Amidala, adopted sister of Senator Padme Amidala. Millie is fourteen years old. She has a soft face with freckles and medium length strawberry blonde hair. She keeps her hair in a simple bun that shows off her hazel colored eyes. At the moment those eyes gaze at her brother in worry.
"Blake are you alright?" Millie asked her older brother.
"One of our siblings is doing something very dangerous right now," Blake answered.
"Do you know which one?"
Blake shook his head. He never felt the presence of this sibling before. This sibling felt strong, strong like him and the original angel.
"Whoever it is, they're ready to unlock their powers," Blake said.
Millie looked determined. "Then we'll find this new sibling and help them! Just like we always do!"
Blake was about to say something else when Millie's adopted sister rushed in. The senator of Naboo looked frantic.
"Padme is everything okay? I thought you had a meeting with the Chancellor," Millie questioned her older sister.
"I'm afraid not Millie. Anakin's in trouble," Padme answered.
Blake had to hold himself back from sighing out. He liked Anakin, honestly he did, but that man got himself into trouble way too often. "What did he do now?"
"Jabba's son was stolen and the Hutts blame Anakin for it," Padme explained. "Jabba has an uncle here, and I'm going to talk to him, see if I can get communications open again since Jabba refuses to answer to the Republic."
Millie stood up. "I guess I'm going with you."
"No you're not," Padme argued.
Millie nodded. "Yes I am. You get yourself into a lot of trouble as well."
Padme didn't argue further and left to change.
Millie turned towards her brother. "Please keep a line open just in case I need to call you."
"Was already planning on it," Blake said as he connected two communicators on the same frequency.
The sun was setting after a long day of tracking across the dessert. Ahsoka could feel the inner cold creeping back in, but it was different from when she met Lila.
"I feel it too Snips," Anakin said, guessing Ahsoka's thoughts. "It's the dark side of the force. Time to split up."
Ahsoka's eyes widen, splitting up would be a very bad idea, at least in her angel mind it was. "No Master, we can face this together."
Anakin shook his head. "Some things are more important Ahsoka."
"More important than keeping you alive?" Ahsoka was beginning to feel desperate.
Anakin only nodded this time and began to discuss the plan with Ahsoka.
Relax and follow the plan. Ahsoka almost jumped when she heard that voice. It's been a while since she heard it. This voice tended to relax her when she felt extremely stressed. Trust him.
Blake could sense it, Millie was in trouble, and his other sibling was not faring better. It troubled him that he could not pin point this new angel yet, but he had to take care of Millie first. He called her on her comm. What appeared in a tiny blue hologram was a battle droid.
"What an ugly sight," Blake mocked the droid.
"Blake!" Millie's voice shouted from an area Blake couldn't see in the hologram. "We're being detained by Ziro the Hutt!"
That's all she said before the droid destroyed the comm.
"Time to go get some troops," Blake mumbled to himself. Walking out the door he once again tried to pin point that new angel.
Ahsoka ran towards Jabba's palace with R2 behind her. Strapped to her back with some old cloth was Stinky. There! The palace was in her sights!
Ahsoka's smile faded when more daisy droids popped out of the ground.
"You have got to be kidding me!" Ahsoka growled. She had enough of these freaking droids popping out of the ground! Lightsaber activated she began her fight.
R2 tried to help by shocking the other droids, but they just pushed him off to the side. Ahsoka wasn't faring much better, the droids just kept pushing her back with each attack she blocked until she lost balance and fell down a sandy hillside.
"Force! I hate these droids!"
Continuing their battle down below, Ahsoka managed to sneak attack the droids and slice one of them in half. As she blocked another attack the sound of a speeder bike caught her attention.
"Master!" Ahsoka called. "Master down here!"
Anakin didn't hear her and continued on to the palace.
"He's going to get himself killed!" Ahsoka groaned. "I can't allow that as his angel."
Ahsoka needed to end the fight now.
"Stinky don't you dare tell anyone what you're about to see," Ahsoka warned the little huttlet.
Ahsoka closed her eyes for a moment, but that was all it took. White feathered wings sprouted from her back and a soft glow surrounded her body. Her voice taking on an echo much like her mother's.
She was truly a radiant sight, her and her other siblings I have seen transform back into their bodies they were created with.
"You tinnies are going back to Dooku in pieces."
That was all that was said before her enhanced speed allowed her to move inbetween the droids and striking them down.
Ahsoka fell to her knees. "This padawan business is harder than I alright there Stinky?"
The huttlet's only response was a coo as it tried to play with one of Ahsoka's wings.
"Time to go home Stinky." Turning back in her mortal form Ahsoka located R2 and they made their way back to Jabba's palace.
Ahsoka could honestly say she wasn't surprised when she was greeted with the sight of Anakin with his lightsaber pointed at Jabba and bounty hunters had their blasters pointed at Anakin.
Can he not get himself into trouble for once?
Sadly Ahsoka he can't.
"Stop!"
The whole room was now facing the tired togruta and the huttlet in her arms.
Father and son were happy to be reunited. Then the father ruined it with the order to execute the two Jedi who brought his son back to him, which was interrupted by call from the father's uncle.
Instead of a hutt in the hologram a brown haired brown eyed woman and two teens appeared.
The woman began to speak. "Greeting honorable Jabba. I am Senator Amidala of the Galactic Congress. I have discovered a plot against you by one of your own. Your uncle will admit he had conspired with Dooku to kidnap your son and frame the Jedi for the crime."
The hologram shifted over to another Hutt, this one was purple and rather extravagant compared to Jabba. The two exchanged words in huttesse, a language Ahsoka wasn't quite familiar with. She could tell though that Ziro was trying to put all the blame on Dooku. After the protocol droid translated that the Hutts will deal with Ziro.
Senator Amidala reappeared in the hologram with the two teens. "Perhaps now you will allow the Republic to use your trade routes and hostilities will come to an end."
Jabba let out a laugh. He agreed to the treaty and to allow the Republic troops to move through his trade routes.
"Senator!" Anakin called out, gaining Amidala's attention as well as the attention of the two teens. "You have my undying gratitude."
"No, it is I and the Republic who thanks you."
This is sickening and uncomfortable to watch. Ahsoka thought as she watched the intense stare between Senator Amidala and Anakin. Ahsoka knew they have history, but she wasn't quite sure what their relationship was like now.
Ahsoka wasn't the only one thinking along those thoughts. The two teens behind Senator Amidala were pretending to gag and I felt uncomfortable as well.
Before the hologram disappeared the boy locked eyes with Ahsoka.
Blake had found the new angel. A force sensitive angel, something he has never seen before.
"This will be interesting."
An angel, giggled. She had already found out Ahsoka was force sensitive and an angel before Blake had. She was highly amused, and curious.
"So Skydork has his own angle, this will be a sight to see."
Lila laid down in her bed. She had failed her mission today and that was something she hated. The young shadow mikkian did meet her opposite though, and the sense of peace she felt with her opposite scared her.
"Father, why do I feel like this? Are we connected in more ways than one?"
Holy crap I really hope you guys liked this. Future chapter are probably not going to be this long, I just wanted to get the movie done with and out of the way in one go since Netflix is not that reliable at my dad's. I also know I threw a lot at you guys but will get down to it!
Any one get the Mushu reference? I really hope someone did, because it just might be my sleep deprived mind but I thought it was funny.
Also I'm surprised no guesses whose point of view this in yet. I had some good guesses but none correct so far.
Tell me what you guys think in the reviews, I really want to hear, or rather read, your opinions on the rewrite of the story. How do you like the story so far, does anyone like Lila? Let me know!
