Her scars of darkness and light Chapter 9, a star wars: the clone wars fanfic
hey guys. I'm so sorry I haven't updated in a while. I'm trying to update more often. Quick note: I have no idea how to write for Mace Windu and that particular section sucks. I feel like he's a good guy but he's just way way way too uptight. Suggestions for improvement are appreciated. Anyway, please review and tell me what you think.
KORRIBAN
Jedi Master Mace Windu's ship had just arrived on the dark planet of Korriban. As soon as he landed, he could feel the immense power of the dark side hitting him, as this planet was home to nothing but evil. He got out of his ship with his hand on his lightsaber and looked around.
In the distance, he could see two things, a large pit and a towering building that looked like a temple. Thinking for a moment, he decided to go to the pit first since it was closer. Before he began the walk, he turned back into his ship and packed some landing gear. Once he had everything he needed, he began the long walk towards the pit.
At first, the walk was uneventful. But after he got a few hundred yards he heard a sharp whistling sound fill his ears. Picking up the pace, he hear another sound, the ground cracking beneath him. He broke into a run, knowing that this entire planet and the force surrounding it wanted him dead. Soon, the cracking sound turned to a breaking sound and the ground started to collapse.
Mace Windu used the force to increase his speed, but the pit was still about 20 yards away. He could not reach the pit in time, and with an especially loud crack, the ground of Korriban swallowed up Mace Windu, burying him under miles of dirt and rock.

Anakin Skywalker, after saying goodbye to the Tano brothers, reluctantly returned to the jedi temple.
Time to deal with the council. That'll be fun. He thought with a sarcastic smirk. He immediately began to walk towards the council chambers, knowing that the council had undoubtedly summoned him while his comm link was off. Unfortunately for him, though, word of Ahsoka's disappearance from the hospital must hve spread, because jedi were giving him strange looks in the halls and avoiding him. Anakin merely smiled. Ahsoka was safe, that was all that mattered.
When he got to the council chambers, he knocked on the door and was not surprised when he was called in immediately.
Walking into the council chambers, he saw that about half the masters looked angry at him, some looked confused, but Master Plo and Master Ti looked almost... approving of him. That he did not expect at all, in fact, he expected to be put on trial for kidnapping the second he walked through the door. Which, I guess could still happen, He thought. they haven't actually said anything yet.
The room was silent for a few moments before Master Fisto began to speak. "Knight Skywalker, you have taken a seriously injured padawan out of the protective and medical care facility she was in and have willingly put her in danger. While it doesn't take a genius to figure out why you did it, but we have to wonder, was that really the best thing for Padawan Tano? Where is she? She must be returned to the protective custody of the jedi order."
Anakin snorted. "Protective custody! Really? Thats what you call trying to execute a 16 year-old? You know what? You all have your heads shoved up your asses! Ahsoka would be better off on goddamn Tattooine than in the jedi temple! I'm sorry it took me as long as it did to get her out of the hospital!"
All of the masters stared at Anakin in shock. " Anakin, " Obi-wan began, "maybe you should wait in your quarters while the council discusses the, um, situation. We'll call you back when we can make sense of it."
" Yes master, " Anakin answered. He bowed, turned around, and walked out of the council chamber, but heard footsteps behind him and turned around to see Master Plo following him.
"I do know the way back to my room, you know," Anakin snapped at him.
" Yes, but we're not entirely sure you will choose to go there, " Master Plo replied. "I will be escorting you to your room and making sure you do not leave it."
"So now I'm a prisoner?" Anakin returned . "Great."
"To a certain extent," Master Plo answered thoughtfully, "but I also need to talk to you on behalf of the council."
Anakin smirked. "Let me save you some time. No, I will not tell you where Ahsoka is. I will never tell you. You abandoned her. You have no right to have any say in her life whatsoever. "
Master Plo thought for a moment before he replied. "You have a point. But speak to me as a fellow person, not a councilman, for just a minute. I have know Ahsoka since she was three. I have watched over her since. I know Ahsoka quite well, mabey even better than you.. Despite what you may think, I do care about Ahsoka. I have a right to know where she is. She is only 16, you know, and the jedi order is her legal guardian. "
Anakin suddenly realized something. "The order expelled her. That means Ahsoka is a ward of the Coriscanti Child and youth services department. I can get guardianship of her!" With that, he turned around and started to run down the hall.
Plo Koon sign and started to follow him. He had to watch him.

Ian Tano had searcned every square inch of the ten mile radius outside of Nabrii, but the only "small cottage" he could find was a freaking mansion. He awkwardly maneuvered his still unconscious sister out of the small ship and to the door, but when he opened the door and saw the interior he nearly dropped her. Ian Tano, being the son of a hooker, living on the streets untill he was ten, and living in cheap motels and running from law enforcement almost all the time, was not used to fancy places. So it was understandable that an expensive looking animal skin rug stretched out in front of a grand marble staircase in the middle of one of the most richly decorated places on Naboo could be a shock to him.
After he got over the shock of the richness of the cabin, he took Ahsoka inside and tried to find her a bed. Walking up the staircase, he turned to the left and opened the first door he found. He gasped when he saw the inside of the room, a glamorous bedroom with a huge bed, fluffy looking bedding, a soft rug, and a couple doors, most likely for a closet and who knows what else. He layed Ahsoka on the bed and awkwardly tried to tuck her in, and once she looked comfortable, he went to the window to look at the veiw.
Outside the window, there was a pond and a field. Ian could see wampas jumping around outside and drinking from the clear pond. I wonder if Ahsoka likes to swim.
Suddenly, he heard the door slam open and sombody, probably Marvin, racing up the stairs. "IAN! WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU?
Pash then walked in. "Marvin, no offense, but shut the hell up. He can probably hear us coming in."
Ian yelled back to marvin. " Guys, I'm up here! " He was quickly answered by two sets of feet pounding up the stairs. He could hear his brothers walk towards them.
The door swumg open and Marvin whistled. "This is some place, huh? I bet-"
Pash ran in after Marvin and immediately pinned Ian to the wall. "HOW CAN YOU THINK DUCT TAPING YOUR SISTER TO A TABLE IS A GOOD IDEA? ARE YOU COMPLETELY OUT OF YOUR GODDAMN MIND?"
"SHHHHHH!" Both Pash and Ian looked over to where Marvin was pointing, and they saw that Ahsoka was laying in bed, just like before, but her arm was twitching.
All fights forgotten, the brother quickly huddled around their sister, but nothing else happened but her arm twitching. Her face remained as motionless and blank as before, and the twitching went from her whole arm to just a few fingers.
All three brother stared at her in complete confusion. Marvin reached his arm out and shook her slightly, but Pash smacked him and gave him an evil look. Unfazed, Marvin reached out and shook Ahsoka again. This time, she groaned quietly and her big, blue eyes opened slowly, staring at the three brother she hadn't seen in years
