Kanan and Ahsoka were meditating. While the rest of the crew was upstairs, the two Jedi were in the quiet cargo hold. Ahsoka was trying to find out who, and where, this Sith had come from.
Ahsoka sighed.
"Kanan? Do you have anything?"
Kanan shook his head.
"Nothing."
A few minutes passed by, before Ahsoka gasped as a vision filled her mind. Kanan shook her out of it.
"Ahsoka! Wake up!"
Ahsoka opened her eyes.
"What did you see?"
"I saw the Temple..a red starfighter from the Clone Wars. And a redheaded girl. She must have something to do with this."
Kanan shouted to Hera.
"Hera! Set course for Coruscant! We might have a lead."
Hera shouted back.
"Copy that, Love!"
The Ghost shuddered slightly before entering hyperspace.
Meanwhile…
Anna gazed at the passing stars. It really didn't concern her that, at the moment, she was literally hundreds of thousands miles away from home. It was a weird feeling. The other strange thing about this mess was that she was riding such an old mechanism. Oh, and the fact that she was flying through space was also pretty strange.
R3 suddenly beeped.
"What is it?" Anna asked.
The droid beeped again.
"What?"
Suddenly the ship lurched out of hyperspace.
"Whoa!"
A large, silvery purple planet came into view.
"What's that?" Anna asked curiously. R3 beeped.
"That's Coruscant? It's cool. Now where do we go?"
R3 directed the ship towards the surface of the planet. Anna gasped in amazement as the details if the planet came into view.
"This is amazing!"
The ship soon landed outside an old building. Four tall towers were at each corner.
"Is this the Jedi temple? What are we doing here?" Anna asked.
R3 just beeped.
"Um, thanks for the help." Anna climbed out of the ship.
R3 jumped out of the ship, and stopped in front of Anna, warbling madly.
"What? Don't go in?"
R3 nodded.
"Fine. How do I find Elsa then?"
As if on cue, the sounds of TIE Fighters filled the air, and began to shoot at Anna.
"What in the name of Weaselton?!"
Suddenly, the TIE's exploded into flamboyant colors. A woman wearing a colorful set of armor dropped down in front of Anna.
"Who are you?"
The woman pulled off her helmet, revealing her colorful hair.
"A friend. I have some friends of mine that need questions answered. Can you help?"
"I'm just trying to find my sister. Her name is Elsa. She has platinum-blonde hair, pasty white skin, and blue eyes. Oh, and she has ice powers."
The woman's eyes widened.
"Ice powers?"
"I know, it's shock for most people-"
"No, it's not that. I think you should come with us."
The woman waved to the Ghost, which was hovering closely to the ground. It landed.
"I'm Sabine, by the way. Sabine Wren. Who are you?"
"My name is Anna."
"Nice to meet you, Anna." Sabine walked to the ship's entrance and was greeted by Kanan and Ezra.
"Guys, she says her sister is that Sith you met earlier," Sabine said.
"She went missing about 2 months ago, and I have reason to believe she's here, wherever here is," Anna explained.
"Well, your sister went by the name of Ice Queen, if that was her," Ezra said.
"That would make sense. Do you know where she is now?" Anna was excited. They knew where her sister was!
"No, but last time we saw her, she attacked us."
Anna gasped.
"Elsa would never do that. Something's obviously wrong with her! I've got to find her!"
Ezra crossed his arms.
"Well, she did."
Kanan groaned.
"How do you know she won't attack you?"
"She's my sister. She would never hurt me."
Kanan sighed.
"Let's go find your sister."
Anna smiled, and rushed into the Ghost.
"Come on, R3!"
R3 whirred and climbed into the starfighter. Anna looked at him.
"What did he say?"
Zeb came out.
"He said he'll follow us. How did you get a Jedi Starfighter?"
"It was my father's. Ah, what are you?!"
"A Lasat. Out of my way."
Zeb climbed back up into the Ghost before Anna could reply. She walked forward, and tipped over her dress, tearing it.
"Oh, man! I loved this dress."
Sabine sighed.
"I got some clothes that might fit you. Come on."
Later…
Anna felt weird. Sabine's clothes were not really her style. Plus she had never worn pants, only dresses, so it was a first to her.
"How do I look?"
"You look great. You're bound to impress your fiancee' when you get home."
"Thanks."
Suddenly, Kanan's voice called out.
"Sabine! Get Anna down here! We have a lead for her."
Anna quickly rushed into the common room.
"You found my sister?"
"No, but we have a lead. Supposedly, she was last sighted here. A monastery in the Teth System."
Anna nodded.
"Let's go!"
Hera nodded, and went up to the cockpit, entering the coordinates for Teth. The Ghost jarred slightly before entering hyperspace.
Meanwhile…
"Pull yourself together! What do these memories mean? Who am I?"
Elsa sighed to herself as she slumped against the wall. She had discovered the Inquisitor and Lord Vader were plotting to betray her. As soon as she could, she escaped. Soon afterwards, she began having flashbacks. Bits and pieces of memories flew by, but she could not understand them.
Suddenly, a voice called out that sounded hauntingly familiar.
"Hello? Is anyone there?"
Elsa called her lightsabers to her, and turned them on.
"Who are you?! Don't come any closer!"
"Elsa?! It's me, Anna! Please, don't shut me out. You're not well. You need help."
"I...I don't know who you are. Just stay away!"
She created an ice wall and sealed herself inside a small room.
"I'm not giving up on you, Elsa!"
Elsa quickly cut a hole in the floor, and dropped down. Suddenly, the sound of a respirator filled her ears as a red lightsaber blade pierced her abdomen. She gasped in pain as it turned off. She slumped to the floor, and glanced up.
The sounds of blasters firing, and lightsabers humming replaced the sounds of the respirator as Vader made a getaway on a nearby ship. Someone grabbed her, and cradled her, their voice distorted as she began to lose consciousness.
"Elsa, stay with me!"
"A...Anna?"
"It's me. Just hold on a bit longer."
"I can't. Be a good..queen."
Anna was the last thing she saw.
Oooh, Elsa and Anna have reunited, and Elsa is wounded. Will she die or live? Stay tuned to find out.
