"Just a nightmare." Ahsoka said nearly out of breath.
"Could it be a vision?" I asked.
"I better tell Master Yoda." She said taking off.
I lie and wait for her return. This whole vision thing concerns me because I know when Jedi dream it's most likely a vision. One thing I realized is that on my calendar back home it's my birthday. When my gem glows multi colors, it means it's my birthday. Pretty cool! But if Ahsoka dies, then it'll be on the day of my birth.
"You were right, it was a vision." Ahsoka said walking in.
"What does it mean?" I asked.
"I'm not clearly sure, but Aurra Sing isn't dead and is prepared to kill someone close to me." She reported.
"That could be me or someone else." I thought.
"Maybe, but she'd be after a bigger target." She said.
"I knew I was worthless." I sighed.
"No! What I mean is someone in the politics or a Jedi." She said clearing that out.
"That makes since." I said with understanding.
"Listen, I have to go study and while I'm gone you can visit Barriss. I hear she's on break."
"How do you know I've made a connection with her?" I asked.
"I can sense it." She said leaving.
Now the better question would be, "Where is Barriss?" The best thing to do is look everywhere. I look in the library, the halls, and finally enter her room.
"Sorry am I disturbing you?" I asked.
"No, I'm just meditating." She said getting up.
"What brings you here?" She asked.
"Ahsoka is studying so I thought I'd drop by to see you." I said nervously petting the back of my head. "Oh, that's kind of you." I started to feel more nervous, but tried not to breakdown. "It's nothing." I said trying to release the nervous energy. Barriss smiled knowing I was nervous, but didn't want to let me know she sensed it. "How is Ahsoka?" She asked. "I think she had a vision, but she can't quite make it out." I answered honestly. "Really? Did she tell Master Yoda?" She asked. "Yes, but..." Suddenly I feel a force hit me and I get a glimpse of Ahsoka shot in the arm. "I've gotta go!" I said running out the door fast as I could.
I run to the library and see Ahsoka walk down the wide steps. "Ahsoka!" I yelled. When I reached her I was out of breath. "What is it?" She asked. "A force hit me hard and I saw you get shot in the arm." I said breathlessly. Ahsoka was shocked that I saw something. "I had another vision and Senator Amidala is in danger." She said. We go to her together and she is packing for a trip. As usual, I'm in the background being ignored hearing them talk. Padmé has to leave for Allderan in the morning for a conference so Ahsoka suggests that she stays here. But it's vital that she goes since it can turn the tide of the war.
The sun was setting and we head back to our room. I sit on my mat and Ahsoka meditates in the middle. Anxiously, I wait for her and she wakes up the next minute. Without a word, she goes to tell Master Yoda what she saw. I wait for her return and then we sleep the night away.
When morning came, we head to the Senate Ship ready for takeoff. Padmé allows Ahsoka to come along as "extra security" and for me as a passenger. In the ship, they play a game R2 and Chewbacca played in A New Hope. Ahsoka can't seem to stay with it due to the visions. I put my arm around her as a way to comfort her. She smiled at me and leaned her head on my shoulder for a moment. I felt loved at that moment and forever I'll cherish it.
On the way, we all decide to rest and Ahsoka is woken up by another vision. This time she runs to Padmé's room assuming Aurra is on this ship which she's not. So we all go back to bed and arrive on Allderan. Bail Organa greets us there and we head inside the building. Once we reach a room, Ahsoka and I wait outside. While waiting she meditates on what she's seen and walks in to tell Padmé something.
The room Ahsoka saw in her vision is the very room "it" happens. When the conference begins, we keep a close eye for Aurra. Ahsoka leaves suddenly and chases Aurra down. Unfortunately, she escapes and Padmé is wounded by the laser Aurra shot. Ahsoka pleads that we leave for the senator's safety, but if someone wants her dead then they'll follow her wherever she goes. So, with an idea in mind we let a droid stand in the conference room and Padmé stay in another room.
However, since Aurra is Force-sensitive she can sense that the senator is in another room. Ahsoka takes notice of it and runs to Padmé's aid. I follow her and watch her deflect the laser from the vent. Ahsoka uses the Force to get her out still armed and dangerous. "You! I remember you Jedi brat!" She said shooting the door panel. I hide on the other side of the bed still watching. Aurra knows I'm here, but doesn't care.
The whole moment gets me choked up and on edge. Just as Aurra pulled out her twin blasters I braced myself for whatever comes. Ahsoka deflects each shot, except for one that hits her arm which made me leap and yell, "Oh my gosh!" Thankfully Padmé stuns Aurra and she gets arrested.
Back on Coruscant, Ahsoka finds out who's behind the attack and it's none other than Ziro the Hut. He has a grudge against senator Amidala for getting him in trouble for kidnapping Jabba's son. So he sent Aurra to do his bidding and it failed because my awesome friend foiled the evil plan. Ahsoka's accomplishments make me feel more confident, but almost to the point I start boasting her achievements.
Not too long after this ordeal, I notice Ahsoka has grown and changed her outfit since the other one doesn't fit. "Wow Ahsoka! Look at you!" I exclaimed. "I think I like this new look." She said examining herself. "I know I do!" She smiled and led me to the Senate building where some political event is happening. Apparently she and Anakin have to come along.
After it was over, me, Ahsoka, Anakin, and Padmé walk down the halls discussing what we just heard. I have to agree with Ahsoka because politicians never seem to explain why we are fighting in the first place. After Anakin telling her that she basically needs to learn more about politics, I, Ahsoka, and the senator leave for a private talk.
Senator Amidala's friend Mina Bonteri is a Separatist and they haven't seen each other for a while. So she wants to use Ahsoka to get to her even though we just might be "bending" the rules. Besides, we need to learn about politics. The reason I can go is because I'm just a "citizen" with no way of harming anyone.
Once we land on Raxus and Mina meets us right there. I'm getting a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach knowing we are in enemy territory. When we reach Mina's home, her son Lux Bonteri helps us with our bags except for Ahsoka's and mine. I honestly hated him at first sight with that stare he gave us when we arrived. If I had a gun I'd shoot him right there! But I know if I did that I'd be in big trouble.
After introducing ourselves, Mina tells us a story on how her husband died fighting the war we are in. The air grew tense and Ahsoka wanted to go outside so I went with her. Walking down the stairs to the small garden, Lux sits on the side of the stair case and notices Ahsoka's lightsabers. "You're a Jedi, aren't you?" He asked. When they started talking, I felt invisible to them and sensed the worst was about to happen. "Hey guys!" I yelled trying to get their attention, but their attention was on each other. "Ugh! That's it break it up!" I yelled pushing the two apart.
"What are you doing!?" Ahsoka asked ticked off.
"You know this girl?" Lux asked.
"Unfortunately." She sighed.
"Hey! I thought we were friends!" I yelled starting to cry.
"We are: just different kind of friends." She said.
"I hope I'm not harming your friendship." He said kindly.
"You're not." She said at the same time I said, "You are."
Ahsoka stares at me with a look that tells me to "get out". But I didn't listen because I'm not leaving my friend with him. I sigh and let them continue. When the two reach a small patio by the looks of it decorated with flowers: I can sense something romantic is about to happen. A bad romance! When I notice them about to kiss, I quickly come in with the normal "interruption". I put my head between their faces and say, "I think they are about to leave." The two notice what they were about to do and broke away.
We attend what appears to be a conference about the war and budgets. Nearly the whole time Ahsoka was discussed with me, but I did what was right. Jedi are not to do that and kissing before marriage is wrong. Once the conference is over, we say our goodbyes and I notice Ahsoka and Lux gazing into each other like in a romance movie. That annoyed me so I pulled her along and we headed back to Coruscant.
Back in the Senate building, we attend the next conference and suddenly an explosion happens. The people are saddened and angry at this and blame the Separatists for it. It was them, but senator Amidala suggests trying and making peace with them. When Anakin meets us he is mad at us for going to Raxus. Then Ahsoka confesses that the war is not as black and white as she once thought. I knew it had something to do with that Lux kid, but I kept my mouth shut.
Padmé wants to pass the bill of peace so the war can end and we can all live happily ever after. But the truth is: our enemy has evil intentions so we have to stop them. If not then a lot more people will be killed. However, if I had to chance to save 50 Clones or Ahsoka then I'd choose Ahsoka. Clones are clones of each other so to me it's not much of a loss. Still, a loss is a loss no matter what.
Seeing my attachment with Ahsoka makes me believe the Jedi are right to teach them to refrain from attachments. It can lead to a darker path because if that person you love dies then you'd want revenge. It's natural, but wrong to desire something so evil. What if I lose Ahsoka and turn to the dark side? I may be no Jedi, but light and darkness are open to all. What happens now is a mystery.
