answers to reviewers questions or statements:
rmarcano321: Depends.
Jason Chandler: Depends, is it the Thanos from the comics or the movie? No, Thanos is running around somewhere in this shared universe. If he were, it wouldn't be Sidious sitting on that Throne of his.
Fenrir44: No, she won't.
Zerecue: He's not, he's just pissing her off because it's fun.
Harbinger of Kaos: Yeah, the ancient Sith had more reason to explore and enhance their power and knowledge during those days because they were surrounded by like minded rivals where's the Rule of Two Sith didn't have to worry about that kind of thing as much. Plus, the Sith Master in Bane's Rule of Two seemed to me that they would never teach everything they knew to their apprentice out of fear of being killed sooner and pride. There's obviously a number of things that Sidious knew that he never taught Vader or Maul, and there's a number of things that Plagueis knew that he likely never taught Sidious and so on. Plus, it's not Like Darth Gravid's actions in destroying so much Sith artifacts and holocrons had helped much. In terms of political intrigue and manipulation, Bane's Rule of Two Sith likely had the Ancient Sith beat, but in terms of raw power, skill in the manipulation of the Dark Side of the Force and Lightsaber combat, the Ancients had them beat.
Guest: She'll be born earlier than in the comics/EU. There was reports that she was going to be in the sequel trilogy but obviously that never came true. Guess the thought of a attractive, strong, confident and badass flawed female character being in the movies was too much for the current executives at Stars Wars to put in a movie. hell, they could've made a trilogy about Mara Jade and her time as the Emperor's Hand but nooooo!
BrotherofaStudio: He'll get his own residence eventually.
Ryu otsutsuki: Peter will stumble across a number of ancient Sith Holocrons in his quest for power and knowledge, but it wont be Holocrons from the likes of Revan or Plagueis that expand his power and knowledge.
Rougarou144: Eh, it's a bit of both.
Hivedragon: Fordo will be seen a number of times more in this story, some a simple cameo others to remind us why we was one of the top two ARC Troopers of the Clone Wars...
gunman: Nah, he's just riling her up because it amuses him. The Rebellion will have it's own heavy hitters on their side, they have a number of experienced and skilled Jedi with them.
Cyclopz: Honestly, I think Terminator is too far gone to be saved in any shape or form.
Guest: The Twi'Lek that will become Darth Talon will be introduced through another member of the Imperial hierarchy, but not for a few chapters. And even than, it'll be a while until Peter takes her on as an Apprentice.

"This is the exact last place I'd ever think to hide" Ahsoka said to herself as her ship came out of Hyperspace, the planet of Dantooine just a couple thousand kilometers ahead of her.
For the past few weeks, the Togruta woman had been following the trail of the former Jedi Elizabeth since their last conversation. She attempted to contact the woman via her commlink but the purple haired woman was refusing to answer. Ahsoka hoped it was because Betsy was still angry and annoyed with her attempting to recruit her into the Rebel cause and not because she was discovered by the Empire and slain.
She lost enough friends to the Sith ruled regime
"Come on Betsy, answer me dammit" Ahsoka said as she once again tried to contact Betsy by her commlink.
Again, she was met with silence, causing the Togruta to sigh in frustration as she refocused her attention on Dantooine. She ran a quick scan to see what Imperial presence, if there was any this far out, in the system. So far all she was reading was a single Tartan-class cruiser that was in orbit above the planet's northern hemisphere. That struck her as odd, while Dantooine wasn't anywhere particularly special, at least for the last few thousand years, it should've had a few more Imperial ships stationed here rather than a single light cruiser.
'Guess a frontier world isn't a high priority for the Empire' Ahsoka thought with a shake of her head 'I mean it's not like this world supplies a good percentage of the grain for the Core worlds'
But she wasn't going to complain too much if it meant her arrival and departure will go unnoticed by the Empire.
Ahsoka had just began her descent into the planet's atmosphere when she received a encoded message. Giving it a quick glance she saw it was from a contact she had on Coruscant, causing her to frown as she accepted the message and saw it was typed rather than a holo-image. It was an update on the Empire's newest enforcer, the Executioner. Apparently the man was now being given command of a fleet that was almost as large as the Seventh Fleet and Darth Vader's personal strike force.
"For kriff's sake" Ahsoka said as she pinched the ridge of her nose and let out a annoyed huff.
It was bad enough that the Empire, somehow someway was able to gain the aid of another Sith, but now he was being given a military force powerful enough to take on several sector armada's at once!
'I hope Betsy will reconsider my offer, we're gonna need every Jedi we can get our hands on if we have a snowball's chance in the Sith Hells of beating the Empire' Ahsoka thought as she shut off the terminal and leaned back in her seat as the ship's automated piloting system took over and flew her to the coordinates that Elizabeth were last seen at.
It was a small settlement, no bigger than a few hundred traders, farmers and filed hands. The streets weren't very large, just barely able to fit two speeders going the same way and most of the buildings were all below four stories tall. The closest thing to a spaceport the settlement was a gated area just outside the eastern edge of the small town, already filled with several large freighters preparing to either be loaded up or disembark from the planet all together for the greater galaxy with the latest harvest. Ahsoka gave the makeshift spaceport a quick glance for an idea location before she spotted a sight next to what looked to be a old Kom'rk-class fighter. The former Jedi Padawan gave the Mandalorian craft a weary glance as she settled her own ship down not too far from the craft.
'Wonder what that thing is doing all the way out here' Ahsoka thought as she looked around to see if the owners of the craft may be nearby.
She didn't see any Mandalorians and sensing no danger through the Force, Ahsoka let out a small breath to help calm her nerves. After seeing so many of the Death Watch owned craft during the battle of Mandalore all those years ago, it was hard to not feel like she was about to be ambushed any second.
'Get a grip Ahsoka, just because a Mandalorian ship is here doesn't mean there's a few Mandos' running around looking for a fight' Ahsoka thought before she heard her late master's voice in the back of her head.
"Come on Snips, that's just asking the universe to thrown some at you, just for spite"
"And the worse part is, your not wrong" Ahsoka said with a sad laugh as she unstrapped herself from her seat and powered down her ship before getting up and heading for the hatch.
The air wasn't cold but it wasn't warm either. It was also a bid more arid than what she was expecting but it was otherwise fine. It beat the smell of ash that she experienced on far too many planets that she cared to count during the Clone Wars and the early days of the Empire's consolidation of their power. She reached out with her senses to see if she could find Betsy within the settlement, it'd save her having to trek through the vastness of Dantooine's wild and massive farms and ranches. The former Padawan closed her eyes and reached out with her senses to see if she could sense Betsy's Force signature anywhere. Several moments passed before Ahsoka opened her eyes with a frown and sighed.
"Guess I'll have to do this the old fashioned way"
She could try to expand her reach but she'd rather not risk attracting any attention to any nearby Force-sensitives that may be aligned with the Empire. Just because Dantooine was a fairly good distance from the Core and away from any major Imperial strongholds didn't mean it was overlooked entirely. The ancient frontier world was still rich in force energy and the Inquisitors were known to patrol near such worlds in the hope they're locate either a Jedi or simply a untrained Force-sensitive to capture. With a sigh, Ahsoka proceeded to enter the main portion of the settlement and slowly made her way down what she assumed was the main street, stalls lined the sides of the small road, filled with crops to be sold or farming equipment to aid the planet's settlers in harvesting their crops.
The stalls Ahsoka noted, were occupied mostly by humans she assumed were natives. They seemed to be the ones selling a variety of crops where's the non-human merchants were selling farming equipment and droids to aid settlers during a harvest season. She had made it towards what she assumed was the center of the settlement when she noticed a small stall selling what looked to be parts to be used in large field harvesters.
On each side of the stall's counter were several Phase one Clone Trooper helmets!
"What in the hell..." Ahsoka said with her eyes widening slightly as she approached the stand to better examine the helmets.
The helmets had several distinct purple markings on the sides and on the small dorsal fin all phase one helmets had, indicating that they were once worn by Clones of the Hundred and Eighty Seventh legion. They served as the personal legion of the late Mace Windu and were reported to be just as stern and if push came to shove, do whatever it took to ensure a Republic Victory to the point that the Galactic Marines seemed reasonable in comparison.
'A true ends justify the means kind of group' Ahsoka thought as she picked up the helmet and stared at it's cracked visor 'Just like Windu...'
She couldn't help the brief spark of hate and anger ignite at the thought of the late master's death. Even after all these years she still could never quite forgive the man for his role in her trial.
"Those aren't for sale I'm afraid young lady" a elderly man's voice spoke up from farther in the stall, causing Ahsoka to look up and see a man in his near seventies emerge.
"I'm sorry" Ahsoka said as she put the helmet back on the stall's countertop "It's just... these helmets brought up a lot of old memories is all"
The old man hummed as he stared at the old Clone helmets "Yes... I suppose for a lot of people your age, it would"
"I'm surprised that your allowed to display them like this" Ahsoka nodded towards the rest "The Empire's pretty strict on the display of old Republic items like this"
"Well it's a good thing that the Empire isn't really here is it?" the old man said with a chuckle "Most of the time I just tell people their old Mandalorian helmets"
"People believe that?" Ahsoka asked with amusement.
"Surprisingly yes" the man said with a shrug as he gave Ahsoka a weighted look and hummed "Forgive me for asking, but what are you here for? It can't be to talk with a man whose about halfway in the ground about a bunch of old helmets"
Ahsoka gasped dramatically at this "My good sir, are you insinuating that I, a young respectable woman, am here for something other than good pleasant conversation?!"
"Yes" the man said with a dry tone.
"Ah, well you got me" Ahsoka said with a small laugh "I'm actually here looking for someone"
"Oh, and who is this person your looking for if I might ask?" the old man questioned.
"She's a dear friend of mine" Ahsoka answered as she held her hand up just below her own forehead "A little shorter than men, purple hair, has the bedside manner of a Mudhorn"
The old man chuckled at this "Ah, you must be referring to miss Braddock"
"Yeah, that's her" Ahsoka said, careful too keep herself from wincing at Betsy not even bothering with an alias 'How in the hell has no one caught on to her yet?'
"She has a small home a few miles out" the old man pointed to the east "She comes to town every few days for supplies, she should be here in the next few hours if she sticks to her schedule. Usually she comes through the west gate"
"Thank you sir" Ahsoka said with a grateful nod.
To say Elizabeth Braddock was as punctual as a droid was like saying a Rancor had a massive appetite, biggest understatement in the Parsec.
Ahsoka had just turned to leave and see if she might be able to intercept Betsy before she arrived at the settlement when she suddenly found herself face to face with the purple haired woman in question. The Togruta was just opening her mouth when Betsy suddenly grabbed her by the shoulders and with a surprising amount of strength, dragged and pushed the slightly taller woman into a deserted alleyway and pushed the former Padawan up against the wall. Betsy glared hard at Ahsoka as she spoke with a hiss.
"Why. Are. You. Here?!"
"Hello to you too" Ahsoka said in a dry tone as she reached up and removed Betsy's hands from her shoulders.
"What are you doing here?" Betsy asked again with something almost akin to a snarl.
"I'm just here to talk" Ahsoka said with her eyes narrowing as she placed a hand on her hip "If you had just answered your comm, I wouldn't have to come all the way out here to make sure you were still alive"
"Oh I'm sorry for wanting some peace and privacy for once in my Force forsaken life" Betsy snapped as she stabbed a finger into the Togruta's chest, just above her breast "Unlike some people, I'm through fighting pointless wars and would like to spend the remainder of my life in peace"
"If it's peace you want, the Empire wont give it when they find you here" Ahsoka countered as she smacked Betsy's hand away.
"Because of you no doubt" Betsy snarled.
"Hey, I'm not some rookie intelligence officer. I know how to cover my track-" Ahsoka began before she was interrupted by a blue blaster bolt shooting past her montrals and slamming into the wall beside her.
The Togruta flinched as she and Betsy turned to see a tall lean figure at the mouth of the alleyway, a Kyuzo. They were dressed in a armored chest plate with a ammunition bandoleer and some sort of fighting squirt that reached down to their ankles. Their face was mostly covered by a combination of a filter mask and a large Kyuzo war shield that was also doubling as a hat. In their hands was a bowcaster that was aimed right at Ahsoka's head.
"Friend of yours?" Betsy asked with a glare of annoyance thrown at Ahsoka.
"No, but I know him" Ahsoka said with a frown as her hand drifted to the hilt of one of her Lightsabers hidden within her clothes.
"Will he be a problem?" Betsy asked as she refocused her attention on the Kyuzo before them.
"Depends..." Ahsoka said with a sigh as she stepped forward with her hands up "Look, Embo, we-"
She was cut off by a sudden bolt shooting past her cheek and into the wall behind her. Both former Jedi ducked and raced out of the alley as several more blue bolts shot past them. Ahsoka heard Embo say something in his species native language before he chased after them. It always surprised Ahsoka just how fast the Kyuzo could move when he wanted to, it was small wonder how he was almost always able to catch his target.
'Almost' Ahsoka thought as she used the Force to seize several large crates beside a stall they ran pass and threw them towards Embo.
The Kyuzo saw them and narrowed his eyes as he ran towards the side of one of the buildings along the street and used a combination of his momentum and lower body strength to leap several feet into the air and run along the wall briefly, avoiding the crates before launching himself back off and landing in a roll. Ahsoka noticed this and mentally groaned as she and Betsy made their way through the slightly crowded streets of the settlement, doing their best to find a way to loose their pursuer. Thankfully he wasn't taking pot shots at them, though the few he did make were far to close to hitting them for the women's liking.
"My speeder's just up ahead" Betsy said as she ducked under another blaster bolt, this one singing the very ends of her hair.
"Is it fast?" Ahsoka asked as she resisted the urge to draw her sabers to combat Embo.
A Bounty Hunter chasing two women was one thing to the Galaxy at large, but a Bounty Hunter chasing two women, one of them clearly using a Lightsaber would draw far more attention than she was willing to afford. Far too many people around that will likely be leaving the planet in the next few days or even hours, and once they did, they'd start talking. Sooner or later, the Empire will catch wind and send someone, possibly an Inquisitor, to investigate.
'And there's still that cruiser I saw in orbit earlier' Ahsoka thought as she followed Betsy down a narrow alley 'If their listening in on the planet's communications, they'll pick up chatter about a Togruta wielding a pair of lightsabers faster than I can finish this thought!'
Before Ahsoka could give the thought any more processing, she ducked under another blaster bolt that would've hit her back head tail. The young Togruta female considered saying too hell with it and drawing her blades before Betsy stopped and turned towards the approaching Embo with a glare. She extended her hands out and Ahsoka felt the Force gather around the human female before she brought her hands together. Embo raised his bowcaster to fire at Betsy before he was suddenly hit from the side by a large crate from one of the nearby stands. Before the bounty hunter could recover, he was hit from his other side by several parts of some sort of machine, knocking him to the ground as more and more items and eventually two entire stalls were dropped on top of him.
"Betsy, that's enough!" Ahsoka said as she grabbed the purple haired woman by the shoulder and pulled her in the direction of where the speeder was.
Betsy let out a grumble as she ceased her attempts to bury and crush the Kyuzo and followed after the Togruta. A number of people quickly got out of the two women's way as they neared the edge of the city where a number of small speeders and transports were parked by visiting traders and farmers. Betsy's transport seemed to be towards the very edge of the makeshift lot, either because by the time she arrived there was nowhere closer to park or it was intentional.
'why do I get the feeling it's the former, not the latter' Ahsoka thought as they arrived at Betsy's speeder.
Ahsoka stopped for a brief moment to examine it and suddenly was filled with uncertainty. The speeder, an old X-34, was so rusted that Ahsoka wondered how in the name of the Force Betsy has been able to drive it, let alone start it. Even Anakin would be hesitant to hop into it and he's flown ships that were literally being pulled or blown apart in the middle of space!
"Get in!" Betsy shouted as she jumped into the pilot's seat and quickly began to power up the speeder.
"Uhh…" Ahsoka sounded before she suddenly ducked under duo of blaster bolts fired from Embo.
Without another word, she ran and hopped into the passenger seat and was just barely able to strap herself in before Betsy hit the acceleration. The Togruta let out a grunt as she was slammed back into the seat while Betsy expertly maneuvered the speeder through the lot, evading other speeders and the few beasts of burden some of the farmers in the region utilized.
"Did we lose-" Betsy began before Embo suddenly landed on the hood of the speeder and aimed his bowcaster right at her head "Oh, never mind!"
Ahsoka quickly undid the straps and stood up in her seat and grabbed the windshield and used it to springboard over and deliver a kick to Embo's bowcaster, knocking it out of the Kyuzo's hands before he grabbed a second kick from Ahsoka and pulled the woman into his elbow, snapping her head to the side and causing the former Padawan to nearly fall off the speeder as it raced over the fields of grass. Betsy quickly reached out with the Force and used it to keep Ahsoka on the speeder as she began to turn the craft at sharp angles, causing Embo to let out a series of curses in his native language before Betsy slammed on the airbrakes and watched with satisfaction as the Kyuzo was sent flying off the speeder.
"Hope that hat of yours has an airbag!" Betsy called out as she hit the throttle and sped pass Embo as he skipped across the ground before making a painful landing on a small hill.
The Kyuzo's body skipped across the stretch of grassland like a rock across water. Thankfully, his dense bone and muscle structure from originating from a high gravity world prevented any fractures or tears... though it didn't numb him from the pain of being literally skipped for almost a dozen meters across the slightly hilled savannah before coming to a stop next to a small hill.
Embo let out a pained groan as he rubbed a hand across his bloodied face and climbed back to his feet. He looked around for his hat and saw it lying a few meters away from him, dented and covered in dirt. With a mutter, Embo limped over and picked his hat up and slid it back on his head and turned to see the speeder the two females used quickly racing across the open fields and away from him. Even if he still had his bowcaster with him, they were already outside it's range and he never got a chance to plant a tracker before he was knocked off.
With a sigh, Embo retrieved his commlink, thankful it wasn't damaged, and switched it on before contacting his partner to inform them of the two fleeing female's heading.
Hopefully she'll fair better than he did.
...
"Well that was fun" Betsy said with a snarl of annoyance "How is it every time you and I meet, someone's trying to kill us?!"
"Might be their trying to kill you and I just happen to be nearby at the time" Ahsoka said with a snort.
Betsy hummed at this before she felt the Force practically scream at her to turn left. Without a second thought, she diverted the craft to the left just seconds before a rocket had impacted in where the two women were going to be had they continued on their current course. The human and Togruta women both looked back to see a lone figure flying after them with the aid of a jetpack.
The armor they wore marked them as Mandalorian.
"Well shit... guess their the owner of that Kom'rk fighter I saw earlier" Ahsoka said with wide eyes as the Mandalorian raised an arm and shot off a smaller but no less deadly missile from a small launcher attached to their arm.
Betsy quickly evaded the missile as it slammed into the ground and erupted in another explosion that sent dust and dirt flying everywhere. Betsy it out a series of curses so vulgar and foul that Ahsoka found herself blushing, even a Twi'lek courtesan wasn't that crude!
"Where in the nine hells did you learn those?!" Ahsoka asked as she held on as Betsy executed another sharp turn to avoid several blaster bolts fired from the pursuing Mandalorian.
"You'd be surprised what you pick up in a Anacondan brothel on Nar Shaddaa" Betsy said as she looked over her shoulder and glared at the Bounty Hunter.
"Why were you in a Anacondan brothel on Nar Shaddaa?" Ahsoka asked with an incredulous expression on her face before it contorted into one of disgust "Wait, you know what, I don't want to know"
The thought of several of the snake like beings slithering all over a nude and sweaty Elizabeth had to be possibly one of the most unsightly things she's ever heard of.
"It wasn't like that" Betsy rolled her eyes "Also go fuck yourself for thinking it!"
Before Ahsoka could offer up a retort, the Mandalorian landed on the hood of Betsy's speeder and aimed her wrist mounted flame thrower at them. Without even thinking, Ahsoka called on the Force and used it to divert the stream of fire that erupted from the small wrist mounted device around the speeder's cockpit. It scorched the paint off the sides and the heat was just barely tolerable, but it was better than being burnt alive. Ahsoka sensed a flash of anger and annoyance from the Mandalorian woman before she shut off the flamethrower and instead drew a small blaster pistol from her belt and aimed it right at the Togruta's head.
Ahsoka quickly got up and slammed her hand into the blaster, sending it up just as a bolt was fired off. The Mandalorian woman seemed a bit taken back by this as she stumbled back and nearly lost her footing on the speeder before she corrected herself and seized Ahsoka's arm before it could be drawn back. The former Padawan thought it was an attempt to keep her from being flung off the speeder... but the headbutt she was dragged into said otherwise.
"GAHHHH!" Ahsoka shouted as the Mandalorian helmet slammed into her head.
The feeling of Beskar metal colliding with Togruta flesh was an experience that Ahsoka was more than happy to never repeat as she stumbled back and fell into her seat as the Mandalorian woman made to grab her before she was suddenly sent flying into the air by a telekinetic blast from Betsy.
"Ahsoka, you okay?!" Betsy asked as her attack had sent the Mandalorian woman flying off the speeder and allowed her to push the throttle to it's maximum. The fields below the speeder started to blur as the craft was pushed far beyond it's recommended speed of acceleration. Just over the loud hum of the speeder, Betsy could hear the roar of the Mandalorian's jetpack slowly catching up to them.
"Y-Yeah..." Ahsoka said as she rubbed her head "Fuck that hurt..."
"Please tell me you have your Lightsabers" Betsy said as she glanced down at the dashboard to see a warning light beginning to flash as the engine started to overheat.
"Don't you?" Ahsoka asked with a snort, causing Betsy to scowl.
"No, because I didn't think that I'd be attack by a bunch of kriffing Bounty Hunters!" Betsy snapped in annoyance.
Ahsoka couldn't help but laugh at this before the Mandalorian woman landed on the back of the speeder and quickly wrapped an arm around her throat. Ahsoka let out a chocked gasp as her hands flew to the woman's armored limb and began to pull back and prevent her air flow from being completely cut off. Betsy growled in annoyance as she kept one hand on the controls and used the other to grab the Mandalorian's arm and try to help Ahsoka pry the woman off her. The armored woman let out a grunt as she felt her arm being pulled from the Togruta's neck before Ahsoka leaned forward and then shot back, slamming the back of her head into the Bounty Hunter's helmeted face.
The force of the hit caused the Mandalorian to loosen her arms enough for Ahsoka to grab them and with a yell, threw the heavier woman over her and on to the front hood of the speeder. For a moment it looked like she'd go completely over and than under the speeder before several blades erupted from the woman's armored gauntlet and stabbed into the hood, creating a small shower of sparks.
"Ahhh, I just got that replaced!" Betsy snapped in annoyance before a light on the dashboard went off and she felt the speeder begin to loose power.
"What's happening?!" Ahsoka questioned as she watched Betsy struggle to keep the speeder going.
"Bitch must've hit something with one of those blades" Betsy growled in annoyance as the Mandalorian stood back up and seemed to glare at the two through her helmet "Can you get her the hell off my speeder please?"
Ahsoka nodded as she reached down to where she stored her lightsabers and drew the hilts out. The Mandalorian eyes widened underneath her helmet as twin white blades flickered into existence from the hilts. The former Padawan just barely heard her mutter what sounded like 'Jedi' before she drew two Sais from her lower back and held them in a reverse grip.
Ahsoka's eyes narrowed at the sight of the smaller but deadly blades as they reflected the light from her own weapons. She wasn't sure what they were made of, but something told her they weren't made from simple Durasteel like most bladed weapons in this day and age were. It was possible they were forged with Mandalorian iron, a metal every bit as capable of standing up to a Lightsaber as Phrik was.
'And I'm gonna be fighting ones wielded by a Mandalorian... Sometimes, the Force just seems to love me' Ahsoka thought sarcastically as she readied her blades as the Mandalorian leaped at her with a quick microburst from her jetpack, to give her more speed and power in her attack.
Ahsoka brought her blades into a 'X' formation and blocked the twin Sais from skewering her in the chest. The muscles in her arms and shoulders strained to hold back the raw force of the Mandalorian's attack. Ahsoka was forced to lean back or risk losing her footing on the seat she was standing on as Betsy tried to stabilize the speeder as it raced across the vast savannah. The Mandalorian woman muttered something but the roar of the wind and the loud choking sounds of the speeder rendered it nearly unintelligible to Ahsoka, though the Force told her it was some sort of insult.
"UGH, what is with you Mandalorian's and your shit talking!?" Ahsoka groaned as she opened herself up to the Force and used it to increase her strength and push back against the Mandalorian.
The armored woman let out a muffled grunt as she had her jetpack switch on and the thrusters angle themselves so that they would push her back into the Togruta. For a brief moment the two women seemed evenly match before Ahsoka, empowered by the Force, let out a yell as she shoved the other woman back and sent a Force empowered kick to the Mandalorian's helmet covered head. The helm itself may have been forged with Beskar, but the material that made the small eye holes weren't and easily cracked under the force of Ahsoka's kick. For a moment, the Mandalorian stood there, clearly dazed from the kick before her body slumped and she fell off to the side and off the speeder into the bronze colored grass below. Ahsoka watched as the woman's armored form skipped and bounced against the ground as they sped further and further away before she lost sight of her.
'Hopefully that's the last we see of her' Ahsoka thought as she extinguished her blades and slipped them back into their original hiding place and hopped back into the passenger seat.
As the Speeder raced away, the Mandalorian let out a pained groan as she slowly climbed to her feet, her body screaming in pain as fractured bones dragged against bruised skin and torn muscle. Her jetpack sputtered and coughed as sparks and smoke began to emit from it while the gauntlet that housed her flamethrower began to leak the flammable liquid used to fuel it. Her Sais were nowhere in sight, likely scattered along the path her armored bulk made when she fell from the speeder.
"Kriffin' fuck, fuck, fuck!" she hissed as she reached up and removed her damaged helm to show her face was now dotted with bruises and a few cuts from when the glass like material shattered and sent a few pieces into her face.
Elektra looked down at her helmet with a frown before she sighed and clipped it to her side and spat out some blood before wiping the rest from her lips and glared at the direction the two Jedi fled before raised a finger and pressed it against the commlink in her ear "I slipped a track on the speeder the two used to escape before I was knocked off. I'm sending you the signal now"
"The Empire thanks you for it's contributions. The Lord Executioner's recommendation was well earned, Elektra" a silky smooth voice on the other end of the line said in a eager tone.
"You didn't tell me that the woman I was tracking was a Jedi" Elektra said with a glare as she looked up towards the sky to the cruiser her contact was currently on "I want triple my usual fee. Same for Embo"
The voice was silent for a moment before they responded in a annoyed tone.
"Very well"
...
And done.
