Chapter 11: Plans and Pain

Ahsoka cringed as threw Lux roughly into the room, and ran to his side as they shut the door and locked them in.

"Lux? Lux, are you okay?"

"Not especially, but at the moment I'm not doing bad."

She helped him over to one of the beds and brought him some of the food the droids had given them. It wasn't much, and it was just rations, but it was better than nothing.

After they had eaten, Ahsoka went to bed. They both needed their rest. The next day would be trials for both of them.


Anakin was still trying to rescue them. He had come up with several plans that might work, but none of them were guaranteed to save them. Well, it was worth a try, anyways. He was running out of time, and he had to act.

Anakin pressed the button on his comlink. "Rex, call together the men. I have a plan."

To himself, he said "I'm coming, Ahsoka."


When they awoke, they were sent food. After they had eaten, they were dragged off and Ventress continued the torture. She may have only been hurting Lux, but it was clear Ahsoka couldn't watch this for another day. Ventress seemed to guess this, so she intensified the torture. The electric shocks were close to killing him.

Lux looked at Ahsoka. Tears streamed down her face as she looked back at him. For a second, it was as if time had stopped. Then the shock came again and he screamed.

"Stop!" Ahsoka yelled. "Just stop!"

Immediately the torture stopped. However, Lux was far from calm.

"Ahsoka! No, you can't! Don't-"

Two droids grabbed his arms and dragged him away. As this happened, Ventress turned to Ahsoka.

"So, you're ready to join us?"

It was silent for a minute, then Ahsoka bowed her head and said "Yes… Master."

Ventress laughed evilly and took out her lightsaber, severing the chains that held her in place.

"Your training starts now," Ventress said, handing her new lightsaber.

As soon as it was ignited, Ventress began to fight viciously. At first, Ahsoka was doing pretty well, but then Ventress gave her a long cut down her arm. But Ahsoka never hurt Ventress. She had a few chances, but she always hesitated. To Ventress, this was a problem. Ahsoka Needed to be trained to use her emotions, especially anger.


Just so you know, there's going to be a sequel. I already finished writing it, because I had an inspiration the other day.

So, you know the drill. Review, please!
