Chapter 12: Mother and Daughter
Ahsoka watched on in awe and shock as Sky watched her mother enter the room, she looked just like Ahsoka and couldn't even believe she was still alive, when she saw her, she couldn't help it, her eyes filled with tears and she ran across from the room to her mother.
"Mom!" She yelled out and her mother gasped both from surprise and shock of seeing her daughter alive and well. Ahsoka hugged her mother which lasted pretty long and Sky couldn't help but feel bored by watching, "I knew it, I knew you were alive!" Ahsoka said happily. She looked back at Sky who gave her an expression that said he would kill her.
"Yes yes" Sky said clapping at the performance going on in front of him "we're all very happy that Mommie dearest is alive" he looked at Ahsoka's mother and smiled, Ahsoka wasn't sure but that look he gave her mother unsettled her "honestly, Mrs Tano" Sky said walking up to her.
Mrs Tano let go of Ahsoka and looked at her daughter uneasily, "it's such an honor to meet you, you know" Sky looked at both Mrs Tano and Ahsoka and smiled "you two look almost exactly alike, though I didn't think you've made a very good impression on her to say the least"
Sky walked around the hut and picked up a photo of a young Ahsoka and smiled, he put it down and looked back and faced them "here we are at last," he pulled up a chair and sat down on it "mother and daughter, together again"
"I'm sorry" Mrs Tano said in a soft voice, she sounded completly calm as well "I don't" she looked at Ahsoka as if asking for an explaination as to why this strange person was in her hut. "Daughter, who is this?"Ahsoka was just about to speak but Sky interrupted her by laughing and said "oh yes, how rude of me, I don't suppose you know who I am" he looked around the room and said "I'm not in any of these pictures,"
He put his hands in his pockets and then walked forward to Mrs Tano "my name is Sky, I'm the Avatar's brother""The Avatar?" Mrs Tano said as if recognising his name, she looked at Ahsoka and said "you're beloved?" Ahsoka nodded and didn't say anything as she was too nervous around Sky and her mother, but mainly her nerves were focused on Sky "the person i shot, 5 days ago" she looked at Sky and then back at Ahsoka "this is his brother?"
"Half brother if you want to get technical" Sky said smiling "I don't suppose you got any of that little bit of important information" he smiled and chuckled to himself "then again, most people don't know that themselves" he reached into his pockets and pulled out a tiny device.
"Is that?" Ahsoka asked knowing what the device was.
"A tracker?" Sky suggested and she was right, it was a tracker but of his own design, with that little peice of technology he could get any people to come to the location he was in or out, any person he wanted. "It's a device of my own making" Sky said smiling "and truth be told, I didn't actually plan and coming here and helping my brother"
"Then why did you come here?" Ahsoka said getting very nervous, judging from the look on Sky's face, she had a good reason right now to be nervous.
"That" Sky said "is a question to be answered another day" he put the device down and switched it on "any moment now" Sky muttered to himself "they'll be coming" He smiled when he finished his sentance and Ahsoka and Mrs Tano both caught the last words that Sky said.
"You mean?"
"The Cult that worships Death?" Sky asked sarcastically "yeah I do" and as if on cue the door of the hut burst open and thousands of Togruta men and women in robes came pouring in, their silent leader in the middle of the fray.
"Why did you summon them!" Mrs Tano asked suddenly very afraid "they will only bring Death itself!""
"Oh honey please" Sky said smiling walking towards the cult "I face death on a regular basis" he looked at the cult leader and nodded "take them if you like, just remember our deal still stands" the leader nodded and two Togruta's took Ahsoka and her mother hostage and dissapeared.
Leaving only Sky and the rest of the cult in the room "so," Sky said "now that we're alone, why do you need them in the first place?"
The leader spoke for the first time and when he did his voice gave Sky the chills "it is written" and with that he and the Cult simply vanished leaving Sky to wonder what the hell he meant, not wasting any more time thinking about it, Sky walked out of the hut as if nothing ever happened.
