Chapter 14
Lux's POV
"We're leaving Onderon to save Ahsoka Tano. The Jedi Padawan that helped us save the king, and his people. The girl that helpped by 'showing' us how to fight our battle, and by that we succeeded. Now, I know this might seem ike a lot to ask, but is there anyone out there that volinteer's on helping us?" Saw asked the rebels.
The just stared with confused looks, probably debating. Lux stepped in," Ahsoka took time to show us what to do, and how to do it. Don't you think we owe it to her to save her?"
"Yeah!" One said.
"You can count me in!", Another said. Other's started cheering. By the end of that, there was about six of them. Not a lot, but it was good enough. While they were getting ready and boarding the ship, Lux walked over to Saw.
"Thank you,"Lux replied, placing his hand on Saw's shoulder.
Saw shrugged it off,"I'm not doing it for you. I'm doing it for her", and walked away. Lux stared at him, and frowned.
Ahsoka's POV
When we arrived to what they called 'The Death Star', I was escorted to another cell, this time it being a little bit bigger. I was escorted by at least 'ten' troopers...Must've been thinking I as trying to escape. The cell really didn't have anything of interest. Just a bed built in the wall, and..well, walls. It was practically empty.
One trooper had said,"Lord Vader wishes to speak to you in five minutes. So you'll have to wait here."
I didn't know my plan from here. I guess it just all depended on what would happen in the next five minutes. Somehow, even when I know I had a purpose being here, I still didn't know what purpose it may be. My theory is I only came so Lux wouldn't get hurt. At first, I seemed...afraid to face my old master. Well, Vader. Than I wasn't that afraid as I was before. Than, as I kept seeing him in my dreams, warning me to be ready (Which was tooken as a threat) I wasn't afraid anymore. I had become furious after visitng my home planet. Not...Not everybody deserved to die. And if I thought about it really good, the longer I was hiding, the more people that would die...
Any second now could be...not ending as I'd hoped. I would be...amazed of its outcome. Depending, I guess. Just then, two troopers entered the cell, and grabbed me by my elbows. I didn't struggle. I didn't even try to fight my way out of this. I just stayed calm. They escorted me out of the cell.
I didn't know where I was going, but I knew it wasn't good. What if he kills me at the first sight of me being there? Wherever 'there' was. But... How else is Lux suppose to know I've died... Well, he'd have to expect it if I didn't come back. He'd have to. But...that would only hurt him more. Because I'm not the first one he's ever fell in love with. I know I'm not. And it's a fact. Before... There was Steela. Steela was a very brave, smart, and beautiful rebel that I had helpped out train so she and the other rebel's could save Onderon. The true hero's of Onderon were those rebels...
I did become jealous. The way I saw Lux and Steela around each other had made me feel that way. But I didn't let it bother me. I had learned that Purpose comes first. Which, I wish it hadn't. But in the end, she died. And she seemed like...such an important person to me in such little time. But still... She died. Lux must've felt bad afterwards, but at the memorial, he seemed... well, not exactly sad. He wasn't angry either. He was calm about it, and... I was just... amazed. He would obviously miss her afterwards, which I know he still does. But... I wonder how my life would be without Lux if he hadn't lost her. If she was still alive...
When we entered another room, I felt...something...evil. I didn't like this feeling. I had sensed it was very powerful too... But I was not affraid of it. Or, better yet, him. Once I caught the sight of Vader, my emotions went like crazy. But as I got closer to him, I felt...anger. From the lives he took... From the friends he murdered...
"Padawan Ahsoka Tano", He said through his mask. He sounded...different Because it wasn't ACTUALLY his voice. It was his mask that made him sound more different. He wore everything black. Cape. Boots. Mask. Comink. Everything. And to me, he seemed like a totally different person. Well, before he didn't seem any different. Only because I 'thought' I still felt good in him. But I couldn't this time. I felt nothing. He was just another soul less sith lord.
"Vader", I hissed.
The troops left us alone. We were in a dark room, with lights on the wall, and some pipes that smoke came out of. And large windows on the other side of the room, where he stood, that showed the ships that went by, and the millions of stars that were in space. I could not see his expression, due to the mask on his face, nor can I sense his emotions. Because his emtions were blank.
"I sense that you are angry", He said, just standing on the other side of the room as I stood where I was.
"But for reasons only caused by you", I said, "You were only suppose to come for me, not kill other people while doing so!"
"Do you really think I'm the one killing those people?"
"No, but you had ordered it", I answered.
"And with that plan, it worked. I knew you would try stop it. So you would try face me before I hurt anyone else. Tell me, Ahsoka, who had to be so important to you for you to do it?" Vader asked, taking a couple steps towards me.
"What does this have to do with anything? You wanted me here, so I'm here. Now tell me what my reason being here was for", I said, changing the suject.
"So I see that I am correct. There is a certain purpose...", he said, stopping, "I have made a plan for you. A plan that I know I would never ask if there was good in me, Ahsoka. And I know there will never be"
"And what plan is that exactly?" I asked.
Right than, he pulled out what looked to be my lightsaber, and threw it across the room, landing on the ground just inches away from me. I stared at it, confused, and picked it up, starring at him with a questioning face.
"Remember Mortis?" He asked.
I frowned,"What does this have to do with anything?"
"It doesn't. But, you HAVE memories of how it felt to be on the dark side", Before he continued, I cut him off.
"But I was possesed!" I exclaimed.
"But you know how it felt. Didn't you? Obeying orders?" Vader asked.
"Just...Get to the point",I said, crossing my arms.
"You liked the feeling. The feeling of doing something you shouldn't. And while you shouldn't, you still do. You have anger, padawan, I know you do. I can feel it", He said,
"But I know 'how' to control my emotions",I snapped.
"No, you try", He said.
"Just get to the point! I didn't just go through all that trouble to find out all you wanted to talk about was Mortis and my stupid emotions, did I?! No! I don't think so!" I snapped again.
"Join me, Ahsoka. Join the dark side. Together, we'll be just like before. Master, and apprentice", Lord Vader replied.
I stared at him, thinking blankly about what he said. Then, I became...fustrated.
"NO! WHY would I ever join you? Why?! After all these innocent lives you took, you think I'm going to just do the same? Think about Padme, think about Obi-"He cut me off.
"PADME HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS ANYMORE!" He became more furious than before. Than, he came charging at me with his lightsaber in her hand. While he force jumped into the air, I activated my lightsaber and blocked his swing that could have stabbed me right through my chest.
That was his weakness. Padme. Wow. Well, this got a lot harder than I thought. But I wouldn't back down. As we fought, I felt flying across the room, groaning. Once I got to my feet, troopers entered the room. Great. My real fight was just beginning.
