Hello and welcome everyone to the twenty-fourth chapter of The Journey Of Aaron Carter. Last week, our three assassins were ambushed by Anakin and his squad of clones and were arrested for the murders they committed.
Before we begin I have to say that Star Wars is property of Disney while I just own my OCs. Let's begin the chapter shall we.
Chapter 24: Cell Mate 01148
Dream
After Aaron was hit by several stun bullets from the clones Aaron's world went black. As he entered the dark corners of his mind he began to see images of the burned bodies of his family.
He reaches his hand out to touch their burnt skin but suddenly the scenery changes with a memory of him holding onto Ahsoka's hand when they were on Iego. He looks up at her face and sees her smile before the images soon change from Jaybo's home, to the castle on Rhen Var where he made the discover of the dead Grand Master's body.
Aaron looks down in front of him and sees him holding onto a knife that was covered with The Grand Master's blood. He looks over to Ahsoka before a small band of clones enter the room before Ahsoka's master entered the room. He looks over at him, and sees the Jedi Master order his clones to fire upon him and his friends.
Soon Aaron falls to the ground while he watches Ahsoka and her master argue before passing out onto the ground.
Coruscant: Prison Cell
Aaron soon wakes up and sees that he s staring at a grey metal ceiling before lifting his body up off a metal bed. He looks around and notices that he is in a very small room where he is sitting on top of bunk bed that is sitting in front of a glowing orange shield that separates him from an entire circular building filled with criminals.
He looks at his clothes and notices that his black robes were stripped off of him and were replaced with orange prison jump suits. He sees a set of numbers on his suit. Cell Mate 03758. "I'm glad to see you're awake." A voice said in the room.
Aaron turns his head to the left and sees a Twi'lek man sitting on top of another bunk bed that was across Aaron's bunk bed. The Twi'lek man had green skin and looked like he was almost in his thirties. Aaron looks closer and sees that the numbers on his jump suit said Cell Mate 01148. He gets off of the bunk bed and stands over six feet tall in front of Aaron. "I was beginning to think that you were dead. However your friend kept saying that you would eventually wake up." The Twi'lek said.
"Where the hell am I?" Aaron asked.
The Twi'lek gives off a small laugh before looking at Aaron who only had a serious look on his face. "Oh you're serious?" The Twi'lek asked. "Well, to state out the obvious, you are in a cell inside the Republic Judiciary Central Detention Center here on Coruscant. Where I, Marcus Coven in case you wanted to know, are you and your friend's cell mate."
"Friend?" Aaron asked.
"Yeah. Nice tanned handsome young man about this tall." Marcus said while he placed his right hand beside his head to show the height of Aaron's friends. "Has black hair, and I think his name was Derric… ahhh what was his last name?"
"Nalto. Derric Nalto." Aaron said to Marcus.
"That's right!" Marcus said while he snapped his fingers. "He left when the lunch bell rang and asked if I could watch over you while he and everyone else went down to the mess hall."
Aaron is then curious about one thing. "How long have I've been out?"
"You've only been out for less than a day." Marcus said who looks over at Aaron and sees that he has a confused look on his face. "You and Derric arrived last night and were put-more like thrown-in here after they had you two fitted into some of these jumpsuits."
"Who is 'they'?" Aaron asked wondering who threw him and Derric inside this cell.
Marcus places his right hand beneath his chin and tries to remember who put Aaron and Derric in here with him. "If I remember correctly, I think a tall white man with brown hair and a scar on his face threw you in here, a Jedi. I think he was also with a clone who had a yellow bald head, and was wearing white armor with blue stripes."
All of the sudden, Aaron has a flash of memory go off in his head and soon remembers those two men were the ones that shot him and his friends when they were on Rhen Var, He remembers that the Jedi that threw him in here was Ahsoka's master.
"I didn't get your name." Marcus pointed out.
Aaron looks at his cell mate, Marcus, and says to him, "My name is Aaron Carter."
"Well Aaron carter," Marcus said while he extended his right hand. "welcome to hell." He said with a smirk on his face.
Aaron extends his left hand and shakes hands with Marcus while giving a small laugh. "Let's go down and see what Derric is up to." He said before he and Marcus left their cell to go find Derric.
Jedi Temple: Ahsoka's Room
After Anakin threw Aaron and his friends in prison, Ahsoka's heart began to fill with guilt. She felt that it was her fault for allowing her master to arrest Aaron, Grace and Derric for their crimes. She knew that they had done wrong things in their past, but she felt that they had a chance to redeem themselves.
Throughout the day she spent her entire time inside her room, isolating herself from the rest of the world. She didn't want to speak to her master for the action he had just committed. Barriss felt the same way she did too. She felt that there was something in Derric that she knew that he could redeem himself if he were just given a second chance. Ahsoka felt the same way as well for Aaron.
She knew that there was a fire within Aaron that he could use to help the good of the galaxy so that his soul would be forgiven for his past mistakes.
That day she stayed in her room and tried meditating, hoping that it would help clear her mind. As she tried to meditate she senses someone approach her door. She knows who it is and she uses the force to lock the door shut.
Knock knock knock. She hears the person knocking on the door. "Ahsoka it's me." She soon heard the voice of her master talking on the other side of the door. Knock knock knock. "Ahsoka can you please let me in."
Ahsoka looks away from the door and continues to meditate while her master struggles to get inside. "Ahsoka you know we're going to have to talk about this." Anakin said behind the door.
But there is nothing to talk about. Ahsoka thought to herself because she didn't want to waste her breath for a man who arrested her friends.
"Ahsoka you know that I had to do what needed to be done." Anakin said. "If I had not arrested them they would have continued on murdering more people. I did what I had to do. They are liars and murders."
Anakin had crossed the line there. Ahsoka stops meditating and walks over to her door where she stands right in front of it, thinking of a what to say to her master. She takes a deep breath and opens the door. As she opens the door and sees her master standing right in front of her. She looks up at him and looks deep into his eyes. "They're not the real murderers." She said before she closed the door shut in front of Anakin.
After hearing his padawan speak those words, Anakin looks at the closed door and is ready to say something to her but doesn't bother to say anything to Ahsoka. All he does is turn back away from the door and just walk away.
Unknown Planet: Sewers
Deep within the sewers of a mysterious planet, lies an underground system of sewer pipes going in different directions but all meeting in a large circular underground building, almost resembling to an arena. Although this arena did not have the wild animals and large crowds, instead it held a few dozen assassins working with one another.
Some were working on setting up their power generators while others worked on setting up lights on the walls so that they can light up the area. The assassins working on the generators manage to get the power on and soon the lights up on the walls begin to light up the area. Suddenly the few dozen assassins are soon revealed to be a few hundred assassins.
When the lights were activated, more and more assassin soon enter this underground arena. They enter the center of the sewer system while they carry large crates and soon place them down on the floor before they all huddle around the crates. But while they huddled around the crates, someone begins to move their way through the crowd and stands in front of the crates who is soon to be known as Desric, the new Grand Master.
He takes out his sword and cuts off the locks on the crate in front of him and reaches inside before he pulls out a blaster rifle and turns to face his army of assassins. He looks over at them and holds the rifle high into the air before he speaks.
"Prepare my brothers and sisters!" Said loudly before he screams at his large crowd. "FOR IN THE COMING FUTURE WE MARCH TO WAR!" The army of assassins begins to cheer and clap their hands while Desric hands the rifles to his followers and others begin to open the crates filled with guns, ammo, and other weapons of war.
Ah man this not good. While Aaron and his friends are in prison, Desric is preparing his army for war. Well what do you think about this chapter. If you liked it then please leave a comment. See you guys next week for another chapter of The Journey Of Aaron Carter.
