~3 Months Later~

Ahsoka has stuck by Luke for 3 months now. She's been training him in the force. Teaching him special military tactics. She taught him how to use the comlink. And he's been getting smarter ever since. And since then, there has been a rebel base established on the planet, Hoth. Luke was leading these freedom fighters who refused to follow after the Empire. Ahsoka was second in command. Even Han and Chewie stayed there to help out.

But now, Vader is desperate to find Luke. He sends out thousands of remote probes just to find him... It's a bad, bad, mess.

OOOoooOOOoooOOO

"This is getting ridiculous! I'm not meant for cold." Ahsoka complained, doing her rounds and meeting up with Han. "Well, you do it everyday. Why do you pick today to complain?" He asked. She groaned and took the cloth off her mouth and grabbed her left lekku, trying to keep it from freezing.

"We finished yet? Patchy here's gonna freeze before we get back!" She said, rubbing the Taun-Taun's neck. Han rolled his eyes. "You named him?" He asked. "Yeah. He needed a name... Where's Luke?" She looked up into the snow and then closed her eyes. And then, her comlink went off. "Echo three to Echo 2. Ahsoka, you copy?" He said. "I read ya, Luke. Finish your rounds?" He asked. "Yeah, finished my circle. I'm not picking up any life readings." He said.

"I told ya, kid, there's not enough life on this ice box to fill a space cruiser." Han said over his comlink. Ahsoka rolled her eyes. "Look, Luke, the sensors are placed, we're gonna head back. You coming?" She asked. "Yeah, see you shortly. A meteorite hit the area and I wanna check it out." He said. "Good luck, Luke. Try not to get killed. Let's move out. Come on," She pulled on Patchy's reins and he started running. She laughed at the noises he made. "How old are you?" Han said. "Uh, 32." She said smirking.

"Ah... Still act like your 13?" He asked. "Yeah, it was only 20 years ago, so." She shrugged and they ran into the base. She jumped off Patchy and rubbed down his snowy neck.

"Think Luke's gonna make it back still warm? Or is he gonna become a Jed-Isicle?" He said. She started laughing. "Did you just make that up on the spot?" She said, taking the black fabric off her lekkus. "Yeah, that's my creativity." He said. She rolled her eyes. "It's either that or your lack of not giving a damn." She said, rubbing her hands together. They headed towards the Falcon. "Chewie! Hey, Chewie!" Han yelled but Chewbacca didn't look up. "Chewie!" Ahsoka said. This time he looked up and howled at Han.

"Alright! Don't lose your temper! I'll come right back and give ya a hand." He said and walked away. Ahsoka got down and breathed into her hands. And she ran after Han. "God, my hands are still defrosting." She put them under her arms and walked inside for their report. Ahsoka breathed in and saw Leia look up at Han... She then looked back down.

Ahsoka bit her lip. "There's no sign of life out there." He said. Ahsoka breathed in. "Sensors are in place, sir. So if we get a scan, you'll know something." She said. "General Skywalker reported in yet?" He asked. "No, he's checking out a meteor that hit near." She said. "With all the meteor activity in this sector, it'll be tough to spot incoming ships." He said.

Ahsoka let out a breath.

"General, I've gotta leave. I can't stay anymore." He said. Ahsoka looked up, eyes wide. "I'm sorry to hear that." The general said. "There's a price on my head, if I don't pay off Jabba the Hutt, I'm a dead man." he said. "Death march is not an easy thing to live with. Your a good fighter, Solo. I hate to loose you." He shook his hand and Ahsoka sighed. "Thank you, General." He said. Ahsoka got a little sick in the stomach and sat down, holding her stomach. He then got in an argue with Leia. She ran out to argue with him and when she came back, Ahsoka darted out of the room.

"Han!" She shouted. He stopped in the middle of the hall. "You- Your leaving?" She asked. "I have to, Ahsoka. I'll get everyone killed if I stay here much longer." He said, walking faster. "Hey! What ever happened to teamwork? All in this together? Remember?" She said. "Yes, how could I forget? You destroyed half the Mos Eisely spaceport." He said, walking away. She stopped and then chased after him. "No, you fired the gun. I just pointed." She said. He sighed and came to a halt. He held his hand out.

"It was nice working with you, babe. But I've gotta get out of here." He said. She looked at his hand and slapped it away, pulling him into an immediate hug. "Your a good pilot, Han..." She pulled back and kissed his cheek. She ran after him, just to see him fly away. And then, he had a fit. Chewie had disassembled the ship, trying to fix the jammed rotators. "What are you doing, I'm trying to get us out of here and you take this apart? Put it back together, now!" He said. She smirked. "Hnh... Looks like your sticking around for a little while longer, eh?" She said.

"Very finny, weirdo." He pushed on her head and she rolled her eyes, helping Chewie out with the repairs. "Hand me that plasma torch." She said, putting a metal plate on the side and melting it together. "Excuse me, sir! Might I have a word with you, please?" Ahsoka heard Threepio. She jumped up. "What's wrong, Threepio?" She asked. "It's princess Leia, miss. She's been trying to reach mr. Solo on the communicator." He said.

"I turned it off! I don't wanna talk to her." Han said. "Well, Princess Leia is worried about Master Luke, he hasn't come back yet." He said. "I dunno where he is." Han said. "Well, nobody knows where he is." Threepio said. Ahsoka looked up. "Whaddya mean no one knows where he is?" She said. "Well you see-" Han cut him off. "Deck officer! Deck officer!" He shouted. "Excuse me, sir but might I-" Ahsoka slapped her hand on Threepio's vocabulator. "You seen Commander Skywalker?" Han said. "I haven't seen him. Its possible he came in through the south entrance." The officer said.

"It's possible? Not possible enough for me." Ahsoka turned on her comlink. "Echo 2 to Echo 3, do you copy? Over," She said. Nothing... "Luke, it's Ahsoka, do you read me?" She said... Still nothing. "He's not answering. Get the speeders ready! We're gonna go out and look for him." She said. "Why don't you go find out? It's getting dark out." Han said to the Officer. "Yes, sir." He said. "Excuse me sir! Might I ask what is going on?" Threepio asked Han. "I dunno." He said. Ahsoka ran to the boarding shuttle and ran inside, waiting. She rubbed down her Taun-Taun's neck and sighed.

"Commander Tano!" Someone called out. She turned around to the officer. "General Skywalker hasn't come in through the south entrance. He might've forgotten to check in." Han stood over her shoulder.

"Not likely. Speeder's ready?" She asked. "Uh, not yet. We're having some trouble adapting them to the cold." He said. "We'll have to go out on Taun-Tauns then." Han said, jumping on to his. Ahsoka jumped on his behind him. "Your Taun-Taun will freeze before you reach the first marker!" He cautioned. "Then we'll see you in hell! Yah!" Han said, kicking the Taun-Taun into a run. Ahsoka let out a shaky breath and pulled up her hood. There was no time to wrap her lekkus so she took on her luck. She pulled on her gloves and put her goggles on. Han did the same.

"Wow, it's freezing." She said, covering her mouth with one of her sleeves while holding Han's waist with the other. "Luke!" He shouted out. Ahsoka took out her sentry scanner binoculars and looked around... Nothing except for smoking holes in the ground. "I'm not getting anything except craters... OK, that's it." She jumped off the Taun-Taun. "Whoa! What are you doing?" He said. "Your Taun-Taun! She's freezing and can't take the weight of me. Come on, we gotta keep moving. Ahsoka walked next to them, keeping her hand on her mouth.

"LUKE!" She shouted. Nothing. "This is not right... I don't like this." She said as the winds picked up. "What's to like?" He said. "Not much. We're losing light!" She shouted and started running. "Hey, wait!" Han darted after Ahsoka at the same rate as her. The sun was still going down... And then, Ahsoka saw something. "What's that?" She took out her binoculars and zoomed in... "Luke!" She ran towards him.

Ahsoka brushed the snow off of him. He was freezing. "Oh, my gosh." She put her fingers on his neck. "Weak pulse... Not breathing!" She put her hand on his lips, trying not to let his lips crack. Not working. She instead put her mouth on his and pumped air into his lungs. And then, he started breathing again. "Oh, boy." She held her breath and then looked up. Han fell off his Taun-Taun and it fell over, dead... She then got an idea. Ahsoka lifted Luke up and put him right next to the dead Taun-Taun. "Don't do this to me, Luke. Come on! Come on!" She said, trying to slap him awake.

"Hey, I got an idea." Han said and took Luke's lightsaber. She rolled her eyes and let him take it. And then looked up. "What're you gonna do?" She asked. "Heat him up!" He said. Ahsoka nodded and then heard Luke... "Obi-Wan... Dagobah... Yoda." She gasped. "Obi-Wan?" She said. "Ah... Ahsoka..." He moaned. "Luke! Luke, I'm right here." She said. Han then opened the lightsaber and pressed it to the Taun-Taun's stomach. He sliced it open and she jumped back. "What... The fuck." She swore. "Hang on, kid! This may smell bad." He said. And then did what Ahsoka was hoping he wouldn't do. "Oh, that's just gross!" She shouted.

"It'll keep him warm while we get a shelter going." He said. She nodded. "OK, stay warm, Luke..." She pinched her nose. "Ugh, gross."

"Here, He gave Ahsoka a shovel. She growled and then started digging. Until they had a little cave made and the Taun-Taun's heat wore off. Ahsoka carried Luke inside the cave and then used her body heat. She unzipped her jacket and took her blanket out of her bag and wrapped it around the both of them. Luke was lying in her lap, unconscious. "How's he doing?" Han asked. "Freezing." She said. He tried to make a fire under the frozen surface. And he was successful. Ahsoka laid down on the ice, using her jacket as a pillow. "Think he'll be OK?" She asked. "Seems OK. Let's hope we don't freeze in the middle of the night." Han said.

She put Luke as close as she could to the fire and pressed her warm hand against his forehead... "OK, he's a little warm." She said. "Good enough. Get to sleep, Ahsoka." He said. She rolled her eyes and then saw him shiver. "Here, I'm warmer than you." She held her arms out to him. He looked at her weirdly and then nodded, crawling into her arms. She hugged him to her tight and he breathed in. "You are warm." He said. She rolled her eyes.

And she breathed in. "Don't get any ideas." She said. He let out a breath and pressed his head against her chest, hearing her heartbeat. She was radiating heat. Isn't it usually the other way around? Anyway, shortly after that, they both fell asleep. And the first thing in the morning, Ahsoka crawled out of the little burrow and set up a transmitter... No signal. "Damn it!" She swore. And then, she picked something up.

"Commander Tano, this is Rouge 2, are you alive out there?" The squad leader said. She grinned. "Good morning, sir! It's about time!" She said and saw them come up. She flagged them down and he stopped, picking them up.

Luke was still unconscious. And then they saw his bad conditions. "A few hours in a Bacta tank." She said. They got back to the base and stripped Luke down, putting him in a Bacta tank, on a mask...

Ahsoka watched him and put her hand to the glass, worrying every second. "Hey, we got him back." Han said. "Yeah, and he almost died." She said. "Almost. Did he though? No." He said.

She groaned and rubbed the back of her neck. And then, the droid saw him lurch forward. He was waking up. Luke then opened his eyes, looking around in the tank. Ahsoka waved as he was taken out of the tank and then he was given a shower.

Ahsoka met him up in the recovery room. "Well, you look as terrible as ever." She said, touching a cut on his head. "Ow!" He whimpered. "Baby." She said. "I beg to differ." He said. She rolled her eyes. And then, everyone else came in the room. "Master Luke, sir. It's so good to see you fully functional again!" He said. And Artoo beeped in. "He's happy to see you." Ahsoka said.

"How you feelin' kid?!" Han said, coming in the room. "Don't look so bad to me." He said. "Fact you look strong enough to pull the ears off a Gundark." Ahsoka said. "Thanks to you." He said to her. "Don't look at me. Han was quick with his wits." She said. "Thats two you owe me, junior." Han said. Ahsoka laughed and stood up, stretching her arms.

"Well, your worship, looks like you managed to keep me around for a little longer." Han said to Leia.

"I had nothing to do with it. General Riiken thinks its dangerous for any ships to leave the system until we've activated the energy field." She said. "That's a goos story. I think it's cause you can't let a gorgeous guy like me get away." He said. "I don't know where you get your delusions, laser brain." She remarked. Chewie started laughing. So did Ahsoka. Han glared at her. "Laugh it up, you heat vent." He said. She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. "You didn't see us alone in the south passage. She expressed her true feelings for me." He said, grabbing Leia's shoulder.

"My- Why you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy looking Nerfherder!" She yelled. Ahsoka snickered in the corner. Han turned around. "Who's scruffy lookin'?" He said. Leia narrowed her eyes. "Must've hit her pretty close to the mark to get her all rouled up like that, huh kid?" He said. Ahsoka smirked. "I think you hit her too hard." She remarked.

Leia stepped forward. "Then I guess you don't know everything about women yet." And then, she did the thing that made Ahsoka queasy. She kissed Luke. Not short... Full on kiss like a husband and wife would. "Oh, my God." Ahsoka turned around and then looked forward, feeling something crawl up her throat. Leia pulled back and smirked at Han before walking away... Luke put his hands behind his head and smiled.

And then someone called for Han. "Take it easy." He said. And then, Ahsoka got dizzy... "I'm gonna barf." And that's what she did, jumping up and throwing up in the sink. "You OK, Ahsoka?" He asked. She looked up and narrowed her eyes. "Don't ask me that." She said. "What happened? Why'd you throw up?" He asked. She wiped her mouth and rinsed it out. "If I tell you, you'll puke. Forget it." She said and left the room and went into her own chambers, falling face first on the bed and screaming into the pillow.

That was horrifying...
