Hello everyone! It's been...awhile I guess. I've started a job recently and I have been dealing with the all this school nonsense and trying to sleep and be responsible and *sighs* Well besides all of that technical stuff, let's get to Jax being a sleemo. c:


Ahsoka's head quickly snapped towards Jax once those words escaped his lips. I'm such an idiot, she thought to herself as she felt an anger rise inside of her. She gritted her teeth tightly as the rest of her face remained neutral. Auntie Jo looked on. If she were able to change her facial expression, she would be very worried right now.

The Quarren Sarm Jokko stroked his tentacles as his eyes slowly scanned down the slender body of Ahsoka, staring closely at her chest, her hips, and her legs. A perverse smile grew across his chapped lips as he leaned back in his chair.

"Hmm...she is a lovely creature. But she ain't worth no ship!" Jokko said, a drunk hiccup popping from his mouth as he slammed his fist onto the table.

"Oh really?" Jax asked with a crooked smile. "I'm sure she doesn't want me to tell you this but…" Jax leaned over the table slightly, motioning for the Quarren to do the same.

"She's quite the wild one, if you ask me. Very experienced," he said in a low voice as well as in Quarrenese so Ahsoka could not hear. Jokko shifted his gaze over to Ahsoka before his perverse smile grew even more interested, clearly persuaded by this new information. She retorted her defiance back by narrowing her eyes at him.

"Hmmm…" he leans back further into his chair. "How about you give me your girl and all the money ya got?" Jokko offered. Jax simply shrugged before giving him a crooked smirk. "Fine by me," he said before resting a finger underneath Ahsoka's chin, petting her with the soft skin. "Do you think I can win, Araassa?" he asked in a mocking tone. This caused her eyes to narrow even further in annoyance as she fought the urge to pummel him into oblivion.

"So what's the game, kid?" Jokko asked. A much younger Twi'lek girl brought over a new pitcher filled with alcohol. She wore a collar round her neck, indicating that she was indeed a slave. "How about a drinking game?"

All of the attendants of the bar, laughed loudly, banging their hands and fists on the table along with Jokko. "Listen, kid! There's no way some little peace-loving Togruta like you can beat a Quarren like me!" he laughed loudly once again. His harem of Twi'leks giggled as they looked him up and down. "I survive off of liquids!" he added. Jax kept a straight face, leaning back in his chair and crossing his arms confidently. "Pretty sure I'll still win."

Jokko slowly lowered his cup as his entire expression changed. "...Get the 2 of the largest cups you have," he ordered with a snap of his fingers. One of the Twi'leks got up very quickly and vanished inside the bar. Ahsoka watched her leave before she casted her gaze down to Jax's eyes, narrowing her own. "What do you think you're doing?" she whispered.

"Wait," was his response as the Twi'lek girl returned with massive goblets filled with a neon green alcoholic beverage, light bubbles popping inside. She awkwardly lifted the heavy glass, plopping it down in front of him before doing the same to Jokko. Jax's face scrunched up as he watched the bubbles pop.

"What is this?" he asked. Jokko rested his arm on the table, leaning a bit close to him. "That's called 'The Outer Rim'."

"Um...why?"

"Because you never know if it'll kill ya or not!" he said loudly before bursting into laughter once again. Jax watched them all laugh. "Fantastic…" he mumbled to himself.

The Quarren lifted his with ease, smiling confidently at the Togruta across from him. "To your girl and all~~~ the money you have in your pocket, kid," he joked. Jax had a more difficult time lifting his goblet but was able to fake it. "To your fastest ship with a full tank," he said.

A pink Twi'lek held up three fingers to begin the count, looking between each combatant.

"Duba. Dopa. Bo~!" she counted down in Huttese, waving her hand in between them. Jax and Jokko immediately began to chug their drinks, some of it descending down their chins. Other attendants at the bar began to gather around the pair, cheering them on and laughing. Ahsoka looked on in worry while Auntie Jo remained indifferent. Jax slammed down his cup a little less than a parsec before Jokko. He coughed violently and patted his chest as he felt his throat sizzle and burn as the bubbling liquid trickled down. Ahsoka sighed in relief, her hand over her heart. Jokko stared at Jax in shock before narrowing his eyes. Jokko's entourage looked fairly disappointed in him as well as his harem. The pink Twi'lek who had done the count walked over to Jax's side of the table and checked his goblet. She raised his arm high in the air, declaring his victory.

"I believe you owe me a ship," he mocked with a crooked smile. Jokko's eyes narrowed further before he waved his hand towards the pink Twi'lek, instructing her to lead them to his ships. "Boshka, mesh'la," she instructed, tugging on his arm slightly. "She said 'Let's go, handsome'," Auntie Jo translated. Jax's eyebrows raised slightly at the bold Twi'lek before looking at Ahsoka.

"We should take her wi-"

"No."

"Harsh."

Anakin briskly walked down the hall, his mind trained on the hangar bay door. He no longer looked as tired as he used to. Instead, he was more lively, alert, and focused. He was a man on a mission. Anakin knew exactly where his Padawan is or was for some time. It would be easy for him to ask around and learn of where she was heading next. He knew for a fact that Ahsoka's journey wouldn't simply end on Tatooine. And also, being a former Jedi, there were only so many planets she could stay on without the fear of being executed.

He could take take a spare ship to Tatooine and then-

"In a hurry, you are?" came the gravelly voice of Master Yoda. Anakin quickly paused in his tracks, turning to the small Master with a friendly smile. "I'm just late for a rendezvous with Master Obi-Wan." Master Yoda hummed to himself, his small hand adjusting on the grip of his staff.

"Come, come," he instructed, slowly turning around as he walked off, not waiting to see if Anakin would follow. Anakin's brow twitched in annoyance before he followed his Master, his eyes shifting back towards the door.

"Master Yoda, with all due respect, I need to go meet with Obi-Wan…"

"Off to find your Padawan truthfully you are hmm?"

Anakin's face slowly fell, ashamed.

"Yes, Master…"

"Hmmm…" Yoda paused in his tracks and slowly turned towards the young man. "So determined to find her, why are you?"

"Because I just...Can't leave things the way they are. I want to know why. Why would she not want to come back to the Jedi order? She's not going to be safe out there," Anakin explained. Master Yoda hummed to himself once again.

"Fear for her you do...Clouded your mind is…"

"My mind isn't clouded, Master. I know exactly where she is and I have to help her!"

"Sensed this have you?" Yoda asked, doing his usual slow turn and walking on. Anakin slowly walked alongside him. "Well no-but I can feel it!" he reassured. "Hmm...Meditate together on this we will," Yoda said with a smile as he walked ahead. Anakin groaned in frustration as he followed.

"I'm coming, Snips," he thought to himself.

Outside of Jokko's docking station, Jax was bent over near an abandoned home, vomiting out practically everything he had in his stomach. Ahsoka watched him, not even providing him comfort. He eventually stood after spitting out any remaining bits he had in him.

"I think I got it all…" he said as he steady himself on the wall. Jax carefully shifted himself from the wall only to throw his body back down again as he violently vomited out more. Whatever was in that alcohol was clearly not sitting well with him. The pink Twi'lek glared at Ahsoka before leaning near Jax, rubbing his back and whispering soothing words to him. "I'm totally okay, by the way…" Jax sarcastically retorted to Ahsoka. She crossed her arms as she watched him.

"You tried to sell me!"

"And there it is! That's what you're so pissed about?"

"How could anyone not be upset about someone trying to sell them?"

"I knew that I wasn't going to lose so you wouldn't have to worry about being sold!"

"You should have let me in on the plan!"

"For what? How would that help anything? I didn't tell you because I wanted to make it-" he coughed as he spit up a bit more liquid. "As believable as possible!" Jax rested his hand upon his stomach, hoping to soothe it.

Ahsoka opened her mouth to argue but closed it instead. He actually had somewhat of a point. She was know for overdoing it when it came to scenarios as well as making things worse. She wasn't exactly pleased with the fact that she would have been a slave to that disgusting Quarren if he had failed, but the fact that they have a ship is what truly mattered. The pink Twi'lek planted a soft kiss on the cheek of Jax as she caressed his arm, making the Togruta male grin with delight from the feminine attention. "Auntie Jo, can you ask her her name?" Auntie Jo snapped to attention, walking over to the Twi'lek.

"Ah'chu apenkee?" she asked. The Twi'lek grinned as she held onto Jax's arm. "My pee kasa Iris," she informed. That crooked smile emerged on his face. "Iris huh? My pee kasa Jax. Um...D-Dolpee kikyuna. (I am a friend.)" he stated awkwardly. Iris grinned. "Achuta, mesh'la. (Hello, handsome)." Ahsoka could only roll her eyes.

"Can we get our ship now please?" she asked, marching right up to Iris. Iris glared back at Ahsoka before leading the way inside of the docking station. There was a wide variety of "borrowed" ships ranging from expensive speeders to choppy transports. Jax paused at a J-type Diplomatic Barge from Naboo, running his hand across the smooth chrome surface. A few notices scratches were on the surface but other than that it was perfect. "How did that sleemo manage to snag a ship like this?" he asked as he watched Ahsoka journey further inside.

"You'd be surprised what you can snag up from a battlefield. Some ships get stuck in the crosshairs now and then," she explained. "He probably fixes them up himself," she continued as her eyes wandered. Her piercing blue eyes fell upon a G9 Rigger freighter, the same as the Twilight that Anakin was so fond of ever since she became his Padawan learner. Her heart immediately clenched, forcing her to turn away from the sight. "Let's take the Barge," she said quietly when she passed by Jax, walking directly towards the ship. Jax's brow furrowed in confusion. "Are you okay?" he asked.

"Yeah...I'm fine.

Anakin moved out of Yoda's meditation room in a huff, his shoulder hitting against that of Mace Windu as he stormed off down the hall. Mace Windu watched him leave with an angry scowl before walking inside, sitting across from Master Yoda. The green creature looked to be in distress, his eyes closed as he shook his head. "What was that all about?" Windu asked.

"Worried about young Skywalker I am…" Windu released a groan of disapproval as he nodded. "He is still focused on Padawan Tano, isn't he?" Yoda hummed as his claws gripped his cane. "Determined to find her he is. On Tatooine Ahsoka is."

Windu's eyes widened slightly as he focused. "Tatooine? Hmm…" his pointing finger slides across his bottom lip as he considered a few possibilities as to why that would be her location of choosing. "That would allow her to get a ship. But that would also put her in a lot of danger…" His hazel eyes locked on the faded eyes of Yoda. The old master nodded in agreement. "Nothing we can do there is...On her own the young one is. Guided by the Force she will be."

"May the Force be with her." Windu said.

"May the Force be with her." Yoda repeated.

Iris draped her arms around Jax's body as she held him close, her bosom pressed up against his chest. Her lips curved in a grin as she whispered sweet nothings into his ear. She would truly miss him, mostly because of the lack of "fun" they were able to have with one another. Jax gave her a quick kiss on the cheek before walking over to Ahsoka. Iris dragged a large hose over to the ship to fill it with fuel.

"Well aren't you just the ladies man?" Ahsoka teased as she stripped off the cloak that covered her body, folding it neatly and holding it in her arms. Jax flashed his traditional smile although his eyes clearly told her to shut up. "I can't help how I look," he retorted as he rubbed his chin. "Plus, I got her information so I'll probably be seeing her again." Ahsoka's eyes rolled at the notion he was suggesting. "Unbelievable…"

"Well I thought she was a very lovely young woman!" Auntie Jo stated, walking closer to the pair of Togrutas as she exited the ship. "I also checked the entire ship and everything seems to be functionin' perfectly. The ship is equipped with weapons as well as medical supplies. So what is our destination?" she asked curiously, her head tilting.

"Ilum…" Ahsoka answered.

"Ilum? Isn't that place freezing cold? Why would we go there? I'd rather be stuck here on Tatooine for all eternity than freezing to death in some wasteland," Jax whined.

"There is something I have to do there. It won't take long."

"What could you possibly do there besides freeze your ass off?"

Ahsoka clasped her lightsaber in her hand before turning away from Iris's view, revealing the yellowish hue of the blade. She held it holding it parallel to her face.

"I just need to fix something."

t-t-t-t

Off in the distance, a scope focused on the pair as they turned to enter the ship. The scope zoomed in closer on the face of Ahsoka Tano before lowering entirely. A wide brimmed hat that was clearly out of fashion is tipped up slightly as the individual leans back in their seat at the bar, taking a slow sip. This individual tosses a few credits onto the counter before grabbing a toothpick to hold between their lips, walking out of the filthy sinkhole that was that bar. Sarm Jokko sat passed out at a table outside the bar, his harem dispersed to other attendees of the bar. The wooden toothpick rolled from side to side in the person's mouth as they walked over to a communicator (one that was clearly occupied by a Rodian talking to his woman back home). This person pushed the Rodian aside harshly as he took over the communicator. He leaned really close to it so that no one around could see exactly who he was speaking to.

"I found the girl."


Oh no! What will happen to Ahsoka and Jax now? Who is this mysterious figure? Will we see Iris again? (Probably not)

I know that this chapter is pretty short but I promise a much longer one next time! I'm trying to develop and updating schedule (which I'll probably break every single time). But I'm shooting for twice a week or every month at most.

Anyway, remember to comment! BYE!
