Last time, Ahsoka was able to warn Dathlan about the invasion and now the Sith are racing to get to safely before the Jedi come.
(In the Atmosphere of Korriban)(Two Days Later)
Coming out of hyperspace were three Jedi Cruisers, they were coming up on Korriban. Aboard one of the cruisers, were Anakin and Ahsoka. They were on the bridge looking at the planet.
Ahsoka haven't heard from Dathlan in two days and hoped that he and Naga were able to get the Sith out in time.
A clone trooper walked up to them. "General, we're breaking through the planet's atmosphere." He reported to Anakin.
"Prepare the men and the ship and get ready to land." Anakin told the trooper.
"Yes, sir." The trooper replied as he left the bridge.
"Let's go, Snips." Anakin said to Ahsoka as he left the bridge.
Ahsoka followed Anakin to the hanger. Anakin felt that Ahsoka was still off on this and didn't want Dathlan and his species killed off, but he pushed aside and talk with Ahsoka later.
The gunships were being loaded with troops and Ahsoka and Anakin got on one with Rex and several other troops on it.
"Open the hanger doors, admiral." Anakin said into his comlink.
"Yes, General Skywalker." Admiral Yularen replied as he ordered the hanger doors open.
The gunships begun to fly out of the ship and onto the Korriban surface, while flying they didn't realized that a few Tuk'atas saw them coming and ran off to warn Naga.
(Sith Empire – City Center)
In the City Center, there were large crowds of people fleeing from their homes. Dathlan have been helping people get to the secret hiding grounds. Naga was already at the grounds and helping everyone remain hidden or seek shelter and food. So far, they got 50% of the people out. Aumias and Calab were also helping; they were on the other side of the city.
While escorting people out, two Tuk'atas ran up to Dathlan and told him that the Republic is about to come; Dathlan contacted his father and told him about the coming.
Naga already was informed by the two other Tuk'atas; he respond by telling Dathlan to quickly move the rest of the people, find Aumias and Calab and get to the hiding grounds. Dathlan agreed and helped the rest of the people out, but it was too late.
Dathlan heard something towards them and saw clones on speeders driving towards them. Then, Dathlan saw smoke from the far north and heard missiles being launched.
"Quickly, everyone get to grounds now!" Dathlan called out.
Then, everyone quickly left the city and went to the hiding grounds.
The sounds of speeders were getting close. He ordered the two Tuk'atas with him to found more Tuk'atas and stop the speeders.
The Tuk'atas nodded and left, Dathlan alone. Dathlan came to a decision to remain hidden in the city, knowing that Ahsoka was here, so he can talk to her.
(Inside the Gunship)(Landing Near the City)
The gunships were coming up on the city and landed. Everyone came out of the gunships and looked around to see anything.
Anakin sent a few clones to go on speeders and look around. Anakin then ordered everyone to follow him.
They saw several Siths, who were unable to escape, there and quickly them.
Out of nowhere, a group of Tuk'atas jumped out and attacked the clones; they begun to fire their blasters which only took out two Tuk'atas.
The Tuk'atas pounced on several clones before Anakin force pushed them off and activated his lightsaber.
Ahsoka stood there watching, refusing to fight them.
Anakin slashed one of the Tuk'atas cross its back, killing it. He stabbed a Tuk'ata through the neck and stabbed his lightsaber through the last one's side.
After the Tuk'atas were killed, Anakin deactivated his lightsaber and walked over to help the troops up.
"Round up all the Sith." Anakin told the troops.
"Yes sir." They called out as they left to begin their search.
"Come on, Snips." Anakin said to Ahsoka.
(Inside the City)
Ahsoka saw several of the Siths and Tuk'atas being caged up and held down with cable wires. She could feel their anger, hate and betrayal.
Ahsoka then heard a loud roar nearby, as she ran towards it to see what it was; she begun to sense a presence she sensed before.
Once, Ahsoka got there, she saw Calab being held down with ten cable wires around him. He kept growling at the clones. The clones electrified the wires, causing Calab to roar in pain and then fell down.
Ahsoka was stuck by the horrific scene she just saw. Then, she heard a voice that was familiar.
Ahsoka turned to see the clones tightly holding, Dathlan's mother, Aumias. She was demanding that they let her go.
The clones threw her into a cage and locked it.
Ahsoka ran towards Aumias' cage. "Aumias, are you alright?" she asked.
Aumias looked up to see Ahsoka and she smiled. "I'm fine, thank you warning us, if you didn't things could've been a lot worse for us." She replied.
"You're welcome, where's Dathlan and Naga?" Ahsoka asked.
"Naga's at one of the secret hiding grounds from here and I don't know where Dathlan is." Aumias told Ahsoka. "Hopefully, he's with his father."
Ahsoka heard Anakin, calling out her name.
"I have to go, but I'll find Dathlan and I'll try to help you and everyone else escape." Ahsoka said.
"Thank you, Ahsoka." Aumias said.
Ahsoka ran towards her master. "Yes, master." She said.
"Come on, we're going further inside the city to see, there's anyone else left." Anakin informed Ahsoka.
"Okay, master." Ahsoka said.
(Near the City Center)
Ahsoka and Anakin, along with several other troops with them were going through the streets to find any other Sith left.
Ahsoka was looking at the surroundings and remembered when Dathlan took her to see the city and out to lunch. While being in deep thought, Ahsoka felt someone grab her arm and pulled her into an alley.
Ahsoka turned to grab her lightsabers, but the attacker pinned her hands down.
Ahsoka looked to see who it is and happy was to see that it was Dathlan.
They hugged each other and kissed deeply. They pulled away and looked into each other's eyes.
"Ahsoka, I've missed you." Dathlan said.
"I missed you, too Dathlan." Ahsoka replied.
Things quickly became serious. "Ahsoka, only half of us got out, the rest are still here." Dathlan said.
"I know, I saw them and I saw your mother and Calab being taken in." Ahsoka informed Dathlan about his mother and Calab.
Dathlan looked down and sighed. "What are we going to do? It's also bound that my father may issue out war against the Republic." He said.
"We can't let that happen, we have stop this, maybe I could talk to my master or Naga." Ahsoka suggested. "But right now, you have to get out of here before they see you."
Dathlan nodded. "Okay." He said.
"Don't worry; I'm going to free your mother and Calab, tonight." Ahsoka told Dathlan.
"Alright, I'll be there." Dathlan replied.
"Good luck." Ahsoka said to Dathlan as they kissed passionately.
They soon pulled apart. "I'll see you soon, Ahsoka." Dathlan said.
Then a voice cried towards Ahsoka and Dathlan. They turned to see a clone trooper coming towards them.
"Bye Ahsoka." Dathlan said as he ran away from the clones, which were following him.
Dathlan had to think of a way to get the clones off his trail. He stopped and force pulled a building down, stopping the clones from reaching Dathlan. He turned and ran off from the clones.
Ahsoka was hoping that Dathlan, didn't get captured. The clones came back with Dathlan, not around.
Anakin asked the clones what happened; they told Anakin that they saw a Sith with Ahsoka and chased after him, but he escaped. Anakin soon found out that the Sith that Ahsoka was talking to, was Dathlan.
Anakin told the men to look for Dathlan, and then he went to talk to Ahsoka.
Ahsoka saw Anakin coming towards her and looked down.
"Ahsoka, what did Dathlan want?" Anakin questioned.
"Nothing," Ahsoka lied.
Anakin knew that Ahsoka was lying. "Ahsoka, tell me." He said in a demanding voice.
"Master, I'm telling you that he wanted nothing." Ahsoka said in an angrily voice.
"Then why was he talking to you?" Anakin asked.
Ahsoka became silent and tried to figure a way out. "He wanted to say 'hello' to me and see how I was doing." She lied.
Anakin sighed and decided to let it go.
(Outside Jedi Cruiser)
Anakin had squads looking for Dathlan and other Sith all over the city.
While, Ahsoka was looking for Aumias and Calab, she found them inside the cage and quickly unlocked it before anyone could know. She helped Aumias and Calab out.
"Ahsoka, do you know where Dathlan is?" Aumias asked.
"I don't know, but I did see him." Ahsoka told Aumias.
Dathlan was sneaking around the cruisers, trying to stay hidden and to find Ahsoka, his mother and Calab.
Dathlan went through a row of Siths in cages. Dathlan felt uncomfortable and disgusted on how they treated his people.
Dathlan found Ahsoka, along with his mother and Calab.
"It's good to see that you're alright, Dathlan." Aumias told her son.
"Now, come on we have to leave before anyone could see you." Ahsoka said.
Aumias and Calab headed away from the cruiser, but Dathlan stayed to talk to Ahsoka.
"Thank you, Ahsoka for everything." Dathlan said.
"No problem, Dathlan." Ahsoka replied.
Dathlan held Ahsoka's face in his hands and kissed her. Ahsoka wrapped her arms around Dathlan. Dathlan's lips traveled down to Ahsoka jaw line.
Ahsoka felt that she had Dathlan with her again. They pulled away from each other and smiled.
Out of nowhere, a cable is wrapped around Dathlan's arm and then several others followed.
Out came several clones, whose cables were locked onto Dathlan.
Dathlan struggled to get out. Ahsoka ordered the clones to stop.
The clones didn't listen and started to drag Dathlan towards a cage. Dathlan unleashed a force wave, breaking him free from the cables.
Dathlan quickly got up, waved goodbye to Ahsoka and escaped.
(Secret Hiding Grounds)
Dathlan made to the hiding grounds that were located near a mountain base and canyon. There were old structures and temples there. Dathlan saw his mother, father and Calab there and ran towards them.
"Dathlan, are you alright?" Naga asked his son.
"Yes, I am father." Dathlan replied.
Naga welcomed his family into one of the structures. They told Naga the ordeal they went through which made Naga mad.
"Our brethrens are captured and treated like animals by the Republic because of this bill; it's just like what happened years ago." Naga said.
"Father, Ahsoka helped us and she can probably speak with you." Dathlan replied.
"No, do not bring her here, if the Republic wants a war, they will get it." Naga said.
Naga went outside to speak with the military officers and warriors.
Naga went to contact the other Sith planets for aid, against the Republic.
Dathlan didn't know what else to do, but to go against his father's wish and by Ahsoka here.
(The Next Morning)(Outside the Jedi Cruiser)
Ahsoka was outside looking at the city; she felt horrible for what happened yesterday.
Anakin walked outside to see his padawan looking at the city.
"Ahsoka, the Chancellor is coming, so we have to prepare for his arrival." Anakin told Ahsoka.
She was still silent. Anakin felt bad for Ahsoka and wished he could recall the mission, but can't.
"Ahsoka, I know how you feel, but you have to let it go, I had to let go myself." Anakin said as he remembered his mother's death.
"Master, is it alright if I go into the city?" Ahsoka asked.
Anakin placed a hand on Ahsoka's shoulder. "Sure, but contact me, if anything goes wrong." Anakin told Ahsoka.
"Yes, master." Ahsoka said as she left.
(Sith Palace)
Ahsoka walked pasted Dathlan's house and went inside. She saw how destroyed it was. She walked into the library and looked at the books that were on the floor.
Ahsoka sensed that something was behind her. She turned around to see Dathlan, standing at the door way.
"Dathlan," Ahsoka said as she ran into his arms and hugged him.
"Ahsoka, I need you to come with me." Dathlan said.
"Where?"Ahsoka asked.
"To meet with my father, he's calling up our warriors and are preparing for battle." Dathlan informed Ahsoka.
"Let's go." Ahsoka said as she and Dathlan left the house and went to the hiding grounds.
(Hiding Grounds)
Ahsoka and Dathlan made it to the grounds and looked for Naga. Naga was sitting next to Aumias and was talking; he then looked up and saw Ahsoka with Dathlan.
"You brought Ahsoka here." Naga said as he got up.
"Yes, father." Dathlan replied.
"Well, I want to thank you Ahsoka for warning us about the attack." Naga told Ahsoka.
"You're welcome, Naga." Ahsoka said.
"Well, that was brave of you to help us, but" Naga said as he took Ahsoka's arm. "I sense something wrong."
"What is it then?" Ahsoka asked.
"This," Naga said as he threw Ahsoka to the ground and showed everyone the tracking device that was on Ahsoka.
Everyone was surprised, especially Dathlan and Ahsoka.
"I didn't know that was on me." Ahsoka told Naga.
"Those are lies you tell me," Naga said as he destroyed the tracking device. "You probably had this to track us down and send the information to you master."
"No, I wouldn't do that." Ahsoka pleaded with Naga.
"Take her to the dungeon." Naga called out to the warriors.
The warriors took Ahsoka to the dungeon. Dathlan ran up to stop them, but was stopped himself by his father.
"Father, she wouldn't do such a thing." Dathlan said.
"She was using you, Dathlan." Naga said. "Now, I know that the Repulic will cause trouble, I'm calling more reinforcement." Naga left Dathlan.
Dathlan refused to believe that Ahsoka was part of it and he went to go talk to her.
(Sith Dungeon)
The warriors threw Ahsoka into her cell and locked the door. Ahsoka ran to the door and begged them to let her out.
The warriors didn't listen to Ahsoka's plead.
Ahsoka walked away from the door and sat down on the floor. She felt tears coming and she heard Dathlan calling out to her.
"Ahsoka," Dathlan said as he stood on the other side of the door.
"Dathlan," Ahsoka replied as she went to the door and locked fingers with Dathlan.
"Ahsoka, how did that tracking device get on you?" Dathlan asked.
"I don't know," Ahsoka then realized that Anakin put it on her. "My master put it on me; he knew I'll see you, so that's way."
"This more difficult, my father is more determined than ever to fight the Jedi." Dathlan said.
"That's not good; we can't let the fighting happen." Ahsoka told Dathlan.
"Agreed, but how?" Dathlan asked.
"You have to figure out a way to get me out of here and then we can stop this." Ahsoka replied.
"Time's up," Said one of the warriors. "Time for you to go"
"Don't worry, everything will be okay. I promise." Dathlan told Ahsoka as he was escorted out.
Leaving, Ahsoka alone in the cell, hoping that they can stop the battle from happening and thinking of a plan.
(Outside Jedi Cruiser)
It's been hours since Ahsoka left and Anakin hadn't heard anything from her for hours. The Chancellor had arrived and was inside the ship.
"Rex, have you heard anything from Ahsoka?" Anakin asked.
"No sir." Rex replied.
Anakin sighed. He worried for Ahsoka and wondered what happened.
"Still haven't heard anything?" Palpatine asked Anakin.
"No sir, it's been hours." Anakin replied.
"There could be chance that the Sith have her and holding somewhere on the planet." Palpatine said.
"If they are, they're going to regard it." Anakin replied darkly.
"This could be the sign of war." Palpatine suggested.
"Well, then they're going to get their war." Anakin said.
"I suggest you think about this first." Palpatine told Anakin.
"I think I can handle it, Chancellor." Anakin replied as he went inside the ship.
Palpatine smiled, knowing that the return of the Sith species were going to ruin his plans, but he was going to ruin them, forever. He'll wait for the battle to happen and to have them destroyed and possible have his new apprentice, as well.
We're nearing the end, everyone. Ahsoka's now in jail, a war is about to happen, some of the Sith are captured and both sides are ready to fight.
