Darth Sidious was furious. His entire plan failed horribly trough his own apprentice. After a long flight he finally landed on Dromund kaas. Now he would need to swiftly consolidate his empire. Most work had already been done. He walked to his hollo recorder and to his associates. '' I want you all to come to this location.'' He turned in his coordinates and ended transmission. It was war he needed more power. He needed Sith. The rule of two served its purous and failed. It was time for a new Sith order!
He contacted cad bane. '' bane. I have a job for you!'' ''yes?'' '' I need force sensitive children. Kill their family. Bring me as many as you can. 5 million each.'' Bane smiled. '' it will be done my lord.'' Sidious thought. Grievous was good. Yes he needed him. And aura sting. That bounty hunter she was once a Jedi and strong in the force. He gained an evil smirk. '' aura sting this is Darth Sidious. I've proposal that might interest you.'' '' hmm you know what interests me indeed. What do you want?'' '' I want you to retrieve grievous from the republic from me. If you succeed in your mission I can promise you unlimited power and wealth. ''
Aura looked unimpressed. '' you can make that claim but are you going to deliver?'' Sidious smirked. Yes she was perfect.'' Of course my dear you will become the heir of my empire and second in command. I'll teach you everything I know. Even how to become immortal.'' '' it'll be done within two weeks.'' She replied the transmission ended. He smirked and took a list with all fallen Jedi ever know.

Ahsoka was waiting at Barriss her quarter. She wore here slave outfit that she got on zigeria. It was actually a good look. And here on the republic there were no slaves so. She wouldn't be seen as one. The only thing she kept away was that ridicules oversized headdress. Also that golden thing in front of her chest was gone. So is the slave collar. She thought. She had hidden her lightsaber in a small handbag.
Anakin was already gone with kit and Aayla. She smiled once Barriss came out. She wore the long sleeved combo. But frown when she noticed the head piece. '' no Barriss take of that head piece. It doesn't fit.'' Barriss sighed she knew Ahsoka was about to say that. '' fine I'll take it off. No point in arguing with you anyway.'' Ahsoka smirked. '' you got that right.'' Barriss walked back in and came through the door a little later.
Finally she had time to really look at Ahsoka. First thing that entered her mind was. '' you look hot.'' Ahsoka raised her eyebrow. '' really?'' she asked surprised. Inside Ahsoka was having a party. 'She really thinks I'm hot? Could she be gay like me? Should I tell her? '
Barriss had other thoughts of her own 'o my god did I just say that out loud? What must she think of me? Should I tell that I've crush on her?' both thought at the same time. '' no she might freak out and think that I'm weird.' After the awkward silence Barriss spoke. '' well you know. Like that's what the boys would say. Hehe'' Barriss acted cool but she was really nervous. Ahsoka acted really understanding. But her real thoughts said otherwise.
'I guess she isn't interested after all.' '' thanks that was the meaning.'' Ahsoka sounded slightly defeated. But she managed to cover it up enough so Barriss didn't notice. ''Shall we go?'' Barriss gave a small nod and they walked to the hangar.
They've certainly gained some attention from the Jedi. As they walked a taxi was waiting for them in the hangar. '' aren't we taking your speeded?'' Ahsoka shook her head. '' nah I want to drink I feel saver in a taxi. Besides. Last guy who tried to kidnap me is still in the hospital after facing Skyguy.'' Barriss laughed.
'' why am I not surprised?'' '' because you know me better than anyone else?'' Ahsoka questioned. Barriss laughed.'' Maybe. But I don't think so.'' They stepped into the taxi and left. It was a short drive. As they arrived they saw Aayla and Anakin they seemed to be talking.
'' I don't know any more Anakin. I… I just want to be with him. Why is it so hard.'' Anakin sighed. '' Aayla if you truly love him than go for it.'' Aayla bit her lip. '' but he's a council member what if yoda finds out or what if he turns me down. I'd look like a moron.'' Ahsoka noticed that this was a talk she shouldn't be eavesdropping. '' hey Skyguy. Aayla. I and Barriss are going inside.'' Anakin turned around
'' oh hey snips. Are you wearing that slave costume from zigeria? And nice look Barriss.'' Ahsoka nodded as Barriss blushed. '' ha well have fun. O and snips rex is out for a drinking contest. Please don't do it.'' Ahsoka smirked. '' maybe. Anyway come Barriss.'' She pulled Barriss with her inside. Anakin waited a few more seconds. '' listen Aayla he loves you. It's obvious. Honestly I don't get why you two broke up in the first place.''
'' we broke up because we had to. It was either that or be separated and expelled. The council forced us.'' Anakin shook his head in frustration. '' don't they understand that a forced break of relations only leads to problems. That I the reason why I know that he still loves you. You two never broke up because you didn't love each other anymore but because you had to.'' Aayla realized that we might be right. '' h-how do you know this all?''
Anakin smiled. '' I too have been in love once. I and Patme married one day after the clone wars started. I was so happy. However a month ago I caught her cheating on me. With a guy called rush Clovise. I divorced and now I'm happy with Ahsoka and Obiwan. What I'm trying to tell is do what feels right''
Aayla nodded. '' your right I should. Fine I'll go for it. I'll talk with him tomorrow. '' Anakin grabbed her wrist as she tried to walk away. '' no Aayla. Now!'' she nodded. And walked in to the club. There she searched for kit Fisto. She found him on the bar that was a little out of sighed. She silently sat next to him wondering how to start.
'' uhmm kit?'' he turned around with his trademark smile. '' yes Aayla.'' He asked more serious once he saw her face. '' kit I need to tell you something.'' He looked intrigued. '' kit I-I still like you. I've never stopped loving you. I-I just can't continue without you. '' she quickly looked aside and covered her face. She could already feel him turning down. After a time of silence kit finally spoke. '' do you really feel that way for me?''
Aayla looked up a nodded. Before she could look away again kit grabbed her chin and kissed her deeply she was in complete shock but embraced him. He released only because of a need for air. Still holding her chin he finally spoke. '' I still felt the same way. If I'd known that you never wanted to break up we could have left.'' Aayla looked shocked. '' you would have done that for me?'' he nodded. '' yes I would.''
''b...but what about the council…'' '' screw the council. You're more important to me. For now we'll keep it hidden and tell no one.'' He kissed her again. Anakin leaned against the wall with a contempt smile. Ahsoka joined him. '' I know that your involved in this somehow.'' She commented. Anakin nodded.'' yes. Don't tell anyone.''
Ahsoka also got the hind get lost. For some reason Anakin didn't want her around now. She shrugged it off as nothing important and left. Anakin made his move to the couple. '' so decided to be together after all?'' kit turned around.
''skywalker. This isn't what it looks looks like.'' Anakin leaned back amused. '' oh really? Looked to me like you two were making out.'' Kit tried to protest but Aayla stopped him. '' kit. Stop he already knows. I've talked to him before I came to you. I wasn't certain but he told me to go for it.'' Kit looked slightly confused. '' this true?'' he asked him
'' yes I did. Don't worry your secret is save. Might only use it to blackmail you though.'' Anakin joked but saw that kit missed it. As His face became threatening. So Anakin quickly added. '' relax it was a joke. I won't I'd swear it on my lightsaber. Ahsoka on the other hand she might take some bribery. O one more tip. Bribe her with booze. She's sixteen allowed to drink by me. But can buy it herself. Just don't tell her that. She doesn't know that I know, that she drinks… at least not that she drinks more than she originally agreed on.'' Aayla and kit looked wide eyed.
Anakin Walked away downing a beer, laughing loudly. While he remembered how rex once contacted him. Cause Ahsoka couldn't even stand without support. Kit searched for Ahsoka, when he found her she seemed to mingle with a few people who didn't seem all too good with their intends. '' ehmm Ahsoka might have a word?'' Ahsoka smirked she knew what this was about. '' excuse me boy's Jedi business.'' She walked to kit. And they went back to Aayla.
'' ugh thanks for saving me. Those guys were starting to get on my nerves.'' Once they reached Aayla they sat down. '' ehm Ahsoka?'' Aayla started. But Ahsoka raised her hand. '' first a toast on your revived relationship. Bartender three corellian brandy.'' The bartender placed down three glasses and poured them full for a quarter. Kit grinned and Ahsoka grinned as Aayla became pale.
'' what never drank it?'' Aayla shook her head. '' no I've done a few crazy things in my life. But the stronger I've had was whine.'' Kit smirked. '' oh you'll be fine. It's whine just a little stronger. '' Ahsoka had to hold a laugh. '' well to your health.'' They raised their glasses and gulped the liquor down. The second they placed don't the glasses Aayla started to shiver. And wheezed. '' that was strong.''
Ahsoka laughed. '' it wasn't that bad. Now down to business what do you two want?'' kit gulped. '' well you've seen us breaking the code haven't you?'' Ahsoka nodded. '' please don't tell anyone.'' Begged Aayla. '' sure I won't… but I'll ask something in return.'' Kit nodded. '' Anakin mentioned something like this yes. So what do you want.''
Ahsoka smirked. She should have known. '' well as you know. I'm sixteen. Meaning I'm under aged and can't buy my own drinks. However if I had a permit stating that I may drink, from my care takers. I'm allowed to drink. In short I want a permit stating that I may buy drinks on my own.''
Aayla was slightly confused. '' can't you just ask Anakin. He's your master.'' Ahsoka smirked. '' yes while it is true that he's my care taker in the order. But officially I've been adopted by the Jedi order. Therefore the people in charge of the order are my care takers. So according to the law. The council members are my official care takers. Kit I a council member. So he can give me a permit for it.'' Kit sighed.
'' fine I'll get you your permit.'' He stepped away making a hollo call. Ahsoka smirked. She looked at Aayla. And asked playful. '' another round?'' Aayla quickly shook her head. '' no. no beer will do fine for me.'' Ahsoka laughed. '' yea wouldn't want to become drunk to fast. No would we.'' The bartender placed two beer in front of them.
It was silent as they drank it slowly. It was when Ahsoka started to play with her bottle that she asked.'' Also have an eye on Skyguy?'' Aayla looked bewildered. '' he what? No! No!'' Ahsoka gave her a sharp look.'' Ugh fine. Yes a little. But I like kit more and he told me about his recent breakup.'' Ahsoka nodded. '' yea I know he refused to talk to me about it. But I know it affected him.'' Ahsoka sighed in a way that made Aayla wonder.
'' what about you? Do you like him?'' Ahsoka nodded. '' yea as a brother. But…'' Ahsoka bit her lip should she tell. I mean she couldn't even tell Barriss her best friend. Was it because she liked Barriss and didn't want her to freak out? ''… but honestly I don't fall for his kind.'' Aayla frown. '' your racist against humans?''
Ahsoka shook her head. '' you didn't let me finish. What I meant with not his kind was…'' Ahsoka looked down and blushed. '' hiss gender.'' Ahsoka spoke very soft. It took Aayla slightly by surprise. But she knew that she shouldn't stay silent right now. '' why so embarrass Ahsoka? Why should it matter that you're a gay?'' Ahsoka looked up doubting mixed with confusion. '' you don't think I'm weird?'' Aayla looked her death serious in the eyes.
'' no Ahsoka. I don't. It's just your nature. Nothing is going to change that.'' Aayla looked to the side. '' ugh I wished those guys stopped staring at me.'' Ahsoka sniggered. As she took another sip. '' well to be fair. You are pretty hot. Not that I've an eye on you!'' Aayla nodded. '' oh well thanks I guess. And don't worry Ahsoka. I know you'd tell me if you really had a crush on me.''
Aayla looked deeper in to Ahsoka's eyes. '' aah but I can see that there is someone. Tell me who the lucky one is?'' Ahsoka looked around to make sure that people weren't eavesdropping. Then she whispered closely to Aayla. '' you really must keep this secret. Form everyone.'' Aayla nodded. '' I promise it on the order.''
Ahsoka looked around a second time just to be sure. '' it's Barriss.'' She whispered. ''Barriss!?'' whispered Aayla surprised. '' b-but your both so different.'' Ahsoka sighed. '' I know. I know. But after the battle of geonosise on that medical ship I started to develop them. I was so confused at the time. I just outright ignored them. Now however I find it impossible.''
'' have you told her?'' Aayla asked curious.'' Are you nuts! What if she's straight and does think that I'm a freak. She'll never want to be with me anymore. No I first have to figure out where her interests lie.'' Aayla noticed that she was talking to herself. So she dropped the subject. All though she didn't think so. Ahsoka's fears could be just. Better save that sorry I guess.
Aayla noticed kit approaching. '' finally! Ahsoka I've managed to get your permit. Now hush! I want to be with my Aayla.'' Ahsoka smirked and took it. '' have fun tonight. '' she said with an evil glint. Aayla noticed the double meaning. '' oh we will. Don't you worry. We'll have a lot of fun.''

A few hours went by and Anakin walked to rex and patted the man on his back. '' so Rexter boy. How does it go?'' rex turned around. '' ah general. All goes perfectly fine. But I still don't have a challenger for the contest. You're interested?'' Anakin shook his head. '' nah force tells me to stay at least a little sober.
Rex nodded. '' ah yea. Say did I see that right or are general Fisto and Sacura together? Cause I've overheard something. And meant to hear the words fun, motel, and horny.'' Anakin laughed. '' ah so that's why they suddenly disappeared. I don't know rex but. Yea you might be right. You should ask them yourself.''
''general!'' fives waved. '' ah fives. How are you and the boy's.'' Fives grinned. '' were ready for battle. How's the commander. Is she alright? Her appearance after the battle gave us quite the shock.'' Anakin felt good knowing that they cared about Ahsoka. They really thought of her as a sister didn't them?'' she's fine. She's is already walking. You know how much she hates the med bay.'' All the clones laughed as they saw Kix face go sour.
'' yea I know.'' He simply commented. Suddenly they heard a shout. '' LEAVE ME ALONE. I ALREADY TOLD YOU, I NEVER WANTED TO SEE YOUR FACE AGAIN!'' Anakin recognized the voice out of a thousand. On instinct he started to move immediately followed by Rex Fives and kix. He saw that a group of human boys had cornered Ahsoka. .'' I don't care. You see I want you and I always get what I want. Plus I believe some payback is needed for wat you did to me there.''
Anakin placed a firm hand on his shoulder. '' ahem what the problem here?'' the boy shrugged it off and turned around threatening. '' Beat it old guy this is none of your concerns.'' His voice changed very quickly from threatening to scarred. '' o really? I think it is. Now beat it boy. Before I start thinking with my lightsaber. That tends to happen when I'm angry. And I get very angry when people hurt or harass my little sis. Do you know wat happens when people do that? You should ask the former separatist.''
Rex and the other clones walked closer snapping their fingers getting ready to fight. That sight alone was enough for the guy's friend to flee. Now the guy harassing Ahsoka was circled. Ahsoka stayed out of it. Anakin came very close to him. Suddenly they heard a weird sound. Anakin looked down and saw that the guy wet his pants.
''did you just pissed your pants?'' Anakin said with a smirk. He furiously shook his head.'' Play it your way then. What is your name?'' the boy refused to talk so rex stepped closer. '' speak up boy.'' His voice became dangerously low. Ahsoka noticed that rex was really trying to restrain himself from renovating this guy's face.
''I said speak. We don't like it when people hurt our sister. And they won't get away with it.'' At this point the music stopped and everyone looked their way. He gulped. '' I…I'm Alec…'' ''well Alec. Here by your arrested on the charge of harassment. Fives take him away.'' Fives grabbed him in the neck and roughly dragged him out.
Anakin turned to Ahsoka. '' are you alright snips?'' He noticed that she clamped her lightsaber in her fist. '' yea…'' she said distracted. Anakin knew that tone. '' Ahsoka I know it's hard, and hypocritically coming from me. But you really can't use your weapon in anger. It will only create regret. I speak from experience.''
Ahsoka sighed. '' I know master… it's just h-he made me so angry. I-I could barely control it. I don't even want to imagine what I would've done, if you hadn't intervened.'' Anakin sighed. '' Ahsoka come with me for a sec?'' Ahsoka followed him to a calm room in the back of the building. There was only one dancer. 'A Twi'lek naturally.' Thought Ahsoka. And Anakin gave some cash.
'' where going to talk. Tell no one and keep half as a fee.'' They sat down in the chairs and Anakin spoke. '' you don't mind the dancer do you?'' Ahsoka shook her head. ''no…'' Anakin sighed relieved. '' Ahsoka I know how hard that was on you back there. Have I ever told you about by past?'' Ahsoka slowly shook her head. Mesmerized by the dancer. Anakin silently took note of it. '' no master you didn't but I know your past. You were a slave owned by the huts and later a Toydarian called watto. When you were nine Obiwan's master qui'gon gin fount you and brought you to the Jedi. I also know that your mother died ten years later around the same time that a clan of tusken raiders mysteriously disappeared.''
'' Obiwan told you?'' he guessed Ahsoka leaned forward and nodded. '' yea well you never told me. And when we were on kiros you were so fit-up I asked him what the deal was. Then he told me. Now at least I understand why you never wanted to talk about it. An honestly I can understand.'' Anakin nodded. '' do you know how my mother died?'' Ahsoka shook her head.
'' she died after being captured by the raiders for two months. She was tortured and violated in almost every way possible. But she stayed alive. She waited just for me… s-she died shortly after I freed her. In my hands…'' his voice died down. Ahsoka could sense his pain. But she was sure that she didn't need the force for it. As she could see that even the dancer noticed his grief.
Anakin took a deep breath. Neither Ahsoka nor Anakin noticed Barriss and rex enter. With beer'' I slaughtered them all Ahsoka. Every man, woman and child. I was so overtaken by anger and grief, that I killed them all. Maybe 10 lucky one's survived. Or maybe even less than that. Only patme knew of this. And now you do too.'' '' and us.'' Rex answered cold. Anakin and Ahsoka snapped their head around to see Barriss and rex.
'' rex you don't know what this is about.'' Ahsoka said '' I don't need to all I know is that he committed a serious war crime by killing off a whole town.'' Ahsoka looked disapproving. '' rex it was a tribe of tusken raiders. And it was before the clone wars started.'' '' still it is a serious crime. He should be court-martialed.'' Ahsoka looked baffled at rex. ''REX! How can you…'' but Anakin stopped her. '' no snips he's right. I should be. I mean I slaughtered them like animals. I broke the code.''
Ahsoka sighed. '' fine but surely you're not going to tell the council.'' '' actually yes snips I will tomorrow. '' Ahsoka sighed again but this time slightly deeper. It was rex who broke the tension. As he noticed that the dancer had left. '' alright enough of this. Let's have a beer.'' He gave Anakin one. And Barriss gave Ahsoka one.
'' on three empty it in one go. One who empty's last will buy new round.'' Rex said. Ahsoka smirked. '' THREE!'' they started to drink however Barriss couldn't hold for long. She had to stop. But she looked astonished when she noticed that Ahsoka managed to match both rex and Anakin perfectly. They all three looked at Barriss with a wicked grin. '' well it seems that's clear Barriss let's get another round for us.'' Ahsoka said as she burped. Truth to be told Barriss started to feel slightly drunk now. But she wondered how Ahsoka was doing.
So as they walked to the bar Barriss asked. '' Ahsoka how many did you have already.'' She noticed Ahsoka starting to count on her fingers. '' uhhhh nine I think. Barriss my friend, let's get another.'' Ahsoka flung an arm around Barriss and dragged her to the bar. Once there Ahsoka released Barriss and smirked with a tease. '' that's how'll start acting when I'm really drunk.'' Anakin busted out in laughter. As he took his beer.
'' you know some times I wonder whether you two are friends or a couple. Cause your both so close with one another.'' He walked to the dance floor. '' you know he's right.'' Commented rex before he went to find his brothers. Ahsoka and Barriss looked at each other. Before they looked away blushing furiously. Ahsoka took a sip from the beer that she just received. She downed fast and said. '' I'm going to the dance floor.''
A few minutes went by and Barriss watched Ahsoka dance with Anakin. It was so mesmerizing. Seeing her move her body like that. It turned Barriss on but she wished it hadn't. 'Why! Why did I had to be a hermaphrodite? It is always so embarrassing.' Barriss wondered if she should tell Ahsoka but ''no she would think that I'm a freak. She then focused her attention to Anakin.
Was he really going to kill Ahsoka? Honestly if someone told her she would be very skeptical. Still the Jedi are corrupt something had to change. She was so in her thoughts that she didn't notice Ahsoka. '' what are you thinking about?'' she asked slightly out of breath. Barriss bit her lip. She should confess. '' a vision I had right after krels betray.
'Wat was it about?'' Ahsoka asked suspicious. '' you…'' Barriss simply answered. '' me?'' Ahsoka asked confused and Barriss merely nodded. '' what happened to me?'' Barriss took a sip. '' you died. Anakin killed you.'' Ahsoka busted out in laughter. '' that's a good one…..'' but she saw that Barriss couldn't laugh. '' wait your serious?'' Barriss again simply nodded.
''Were his motives revealed?'' Barriss thought. '' well he certainly seemed like he fell to the dark side. He attacked the temple with the 501st and killed every Jedi. Before that you stopped him. Probably saying that if he wanted to continue he had to cut you down first. And he did.'' Ahsoka looked disbelieving. '' how long did you know?''
''About the fact that Anakin was the one killing you? Three days. The attack and your death? Ever since umbara…'' Barriss fell silent. Ahsoka knew now. So should she tell everything? She did deserve to know it. And she was her best friend after all. But would she understand? ''… Ahsoka I-I had a plan to prevent it. To kill your killer before it happened.''
Ahsoka realized by this point what Barriss was saying. '' what are you talking about? Why didn't you tell me!'' Ahsoka said slightly hurt and disappointed in Barriss. '' believe me Ahsoka I wanted but I couldn't my plan B required for you to not know a thing.''
Ahsoka finally realized. Barriss was the one in her vision to bomb the temple and to frame her? '' so you were the one of my vision? You where the one that framed me for bombing the temple? That's why you avoided me?'' now it was Barriss her turn to be surprised. '' you knew?'' Ahsoka nodded. And Barriss sighed.
'' fine yes my plan was to bomb the temple. In hope to kill the man who killed you. Should that fail I would frame you. So you wouldn't be here once it did happen. But you have to believe me Ahsoka I planned this all to save you. You area my best friend. The only friend who wanted to be my friend because you liked me. And not because you needed a favor of me. I would do anything for you.'' Barriss started to sob.
Ahsoka felt horrible she hated to see Barriss cry. She held Barriss in an embrace.'' I know Barriss. I know. But that doesn't make it right. Please I beg you. Quit this stupid plan. You only driving yourself to the dark side. I sense it. You're my best friend Barriss I don't want to lose you. Besides the dark side presence that hold power over Anakin I gone. Sidious is no longer in the republic. Anakin is already changing. Besides you plan be wont help. I saw the vision. Tarkin would rape me for a confession. I would give in and be sentenced to death. ''
Barriss looked up in fear. '' n-no that's not right. That's not how I've foreseen it. '' ''but it is how I've foreseen it. Please Barriss give up this plan. It will only cause harm I don't want to lose you to the dark side.'' '' b-but you'll die.'' Ahsoka shook her head. '' that isn't certain Barriss. But I'm willing to make the gamble. But if that time comes we'll run away together. Understand me?'' Barriss smiled at her. '' you really are the best friend I've ever had.''
Ahsoka nodded. '' then lets drink to it. Barkeep two burnstrike.'' The bartender looked questioning. But poured in the drinks.'' Barriss saw the look of the man. And wondered what Ahsoka was getting her. '' Three… two… one…. Now!'' Ahsoka and Barriss took the small shot together.
She second Barriss took it she regretted it, as she started coughing. '' Ahsoka what the hell was that!'' she said more wheezing than talking. '' even breathing trough my nose hurts.'' She saw Ahsoka looking with a goofy smile. She barely seemed to be affected by the stuff. Rex walked up
''Hey how's it going?'' he noticed the glasses. He took one and sniffed. '' burnstrike?'' he simply asked. Noticing Barriss beginning to feel it. He also noticed that Ahsoka was now more than a little tipsy. Ahsoka gave a frim nod. Rex smirked challenging. '' bet I can have more of this than you?''
Ahsoka started laughing. '' you more than me? Only in your dreams cap!'' '' we can only know if you accept commander.'' Ahsoka nodded. ''fine bring it on though guy. Barkeep one bottle of burnstrike please. '' he gave a full bottle. '' Barriss got a good look at it and saw 80% vol on it. She noticed that a crowd was gathering
They had been at it for 15 minutes now. And they just opened the third bottle of burnstrike. By this time they could barely speak. Barriss betted that even and SIS agent couldn't decipher this. In the meantime Barriss had also been drinking. And she was pretty drunk herself by now. Rex pored another one in and drank it. '' well comandure. I am n lead. (Hick).'' Ahsoka had trouble focusing on the bottle. It was still half a littler. '' shaddap I can still wi(hick)in.'' rex looked disbelieving. '' half bottle.'' he said '' BAR!'' Ahsoka shouted.
He gave a full bottle. The crowd started to yel. '' DOWN IT! DOWN IT! DOWN IT!'' Ahsoka place the bottle against her lips and started drinking. The crowd went mad. '' GO! GO! GO! GO! GO! GO!'' They all encouraged once Ahsoka finished the first bottle she immediately took the last half a downed it in one go as well... she slammed the bottle on the bar hard enough for it to shatter. '' I win she said smug.'' Rex surrendered and stumbled away without a word. Ahsoka laughed
About ten minute later a Togrutan band walked on the stage. Calling themselves Sabaton. Barriss noticed that Ahsoka became really hyped about it. "You know them?'' Ahsoka nodded with enthusiasm. '' hell yes! Their favorite band!'' Sabaton started to play and Ahsoka sang along with the whole song.
Barriss POV
I chuckled when I saw Ahsoka ordering water. It really amused me and I was about to speak when suddenly a boy appeared and started flirting with Ahsoka. A spike of jealousy hit me as I watched and listened. I just couldn't help it. I was about to walk away, because I didn't want to ruin Ahsoka's mood. She really seems to be in too the guy
I heard him asking her. '' hey you know what? you should come with me to my home. We could learn each other on a more personal manner.'' Ahsoka smiled. '' I'm flattered and thanks for the offer. But I have to refuse. I'm just not interested.''
I could jump a hole in the air as soon as I heard Ahsoka say that but I noticed that the boy seemed very disappointed. ''May I ask why not?'' Ahsoka bit her lip. '' I'm just not in to your kind…. That came out wrong. What I meant was… well'' Ahsoka sighed. '' look a no will have to suffice. You're a cool guy and al. but it's just me. It would be wrong for me to give you false hope.''
The boy gave a nod. '' well I appreciate the honesty.'' With that he walked away I looked to Ahsoka for an explanation. '' what was that are you racist or something?'' I asked her. But Ahsoka shook her head. She bit her lip and seemed to be in deep thoughts. Then she asked me '' Barriss do you have a problem with gay people.
I frown. '' no why would I?'' 'Beside I'm gay myself.' I thought I could see the relive on Ahsoka's face and she turned to me very serious '' I reacted like that not because I'm racist. I-I just don't fall for his gender. Barriss I-I am gay.'' I could feel my eyes widened. '' Ahsoka are you serious?'' a tear appeared. '' yes I am lesbian okay. Do you think I'm weird now?''
I knew she was more emotional when she was drunk. She told me that herself. '' no I don't. I think it's very normal to be gay. I'm just wondering why you didn't tell me sooner.'' I saw Ahsoka shied away. She started to mumble. '' because I feared that you would think that I was a weirdo. You're my best friend. Besides Anakin you're the most important person I have in my live and I don't want to lose you.''
I smiled. And hugged her. '' you shouldn't have worried about that. It's getting late everyone has already gone even Anakin. Lest go back as well''
