Chapter 11
The Gentlemen
~*No One*~
"You need to get some fresh bandages put on so nothing gets infected."
"I'm terribly sorry to interrupted, but I'm looking for someo-"
Rex points his blasters at the man "Who are you?"
"I am the gentleman, it is quite rude to interru-"
"Stop right there, that's far enough."
"I don't much like how rude you are being, I would hate to resort to violence"
"Then go back from wherever you came from."
"I am afraid I can't do that you see those lovely creatures in the trees, they will kill everyone here starting with you I'm here looking for SkyW-"
"What happened to not liking violence."
He snaps his finger and two of the creatures come flying out of the trees each taking a blaster away from Rex then pin him to the ground.
"I told you it's rude to interrupt, now I must get violent"
"Wait, please don't kill him, them!"
"Commander, what are you doing?"
"Skywalker's Padawan I a presume."
"Yes now what do you want from me?"
"I require nothing my dear, my employer on the other hand."
"Well whatever he wants he can get it somewhere else."
"I'm afraid that he already tried, I'm here to make a deal."
"What kind of deal?"
"You come with me, no fighting, no trying to escape and I let your men live."
"Don't listen to him Commander."
"Rex please! How do I know you won't just kill them?"
"Darling a gentleman always keeps his word."
"So if I come with you, you will leave them alone."
"Precisely do we have a deal?"
"Alright but if anything happens to them I'm killing you first."
"That seems fair, come now it rude to keep people waiting"
"Commander don't do this"
"Rex trust me stay here"
"But Commander"
"That's an order Captain"
Rex could see that she was serious but something else maybe scared but not for her but him, Rex watched as the gentleman helped her onto a speeder unable to do anything as they drove away, the creatures left a little while later leaving his blaster on the ground Rex ran back down the hill in a frenzy.

Obi-wan had finished earlier than expected so Anakin had gotten him to take his place so he could go, he was glad that he could finally go save his Padawan. When he got above the planet he received Hawks message. [::We crash landed, we have wounded that needed medical assistance including Commander Tano. Do Not Try Entering the planet's atmosphere. It causes your instruments to go crazy and cause you to crash, we will be flying in an enemy ship::] That wasn't going to stop him. He got in a ship and headed to the ground making a less than ideal landing but he didn't care.
Dogma saw him rush in "Captain, what's up, where's the commander?"
"The enemy has her."
"What how?"
"She went with them willingly to save us."
"What! we need to go after her."
"Look around Dogma, if we could we would go after them but we can't, plus we don't even know where she went?"
"Fives is right, I know the direction, and none of you are coming. You will wait here for help to arrive and-"
Anakin stood at the entrance looking at the troops "Where's Ahsoka?"
"The enemy has her."
"What! Which way did they go?"
"East."
"Rex get the men loaded in the ship and have it ready to go when I get back, I'm going to get my Padawan back."
"Yes Sir."
~*New Area*~
As they reach a dead end canyon Ahsoka can't see anything out of the ordinary but then the gentleman looks to the right and the dead end opens up and they enter a cave. Upon entering Ahsoka is then zapped and falls to the ground, much to the gentlemen's surprise.
"I was told that you were just going to hold her not that she would be hurt"
"It's no longer any of your concern bounty hunter"
As two guards dragged her unconscious body, the gentleman watched.
"Here's your money now get out"
"I still have business with your boss"
"I was not made aware of this. What kind of business?"
"Nothing you need be concerned yourself about, now if you excuse me you are in my way"
"I don't think so boss isn't that way"
"I said I had business now my business is that way so if you could kindly step aside"
As the hunter walks towards the cells he hears the screams of Ahsoka as they wake her up painfully, the hunter waits till the guards are gone before he enters the room to find Ahsoka laying on the ground.
"I apologize, for they did not tell me about this."
"Ya well you got your money what are you still doing here?"
"I will not leave you here seeing as this is my fault, I will help you get out but after that i'm afraid you are on your own."
"Why would you even bother, just so you can catch me again like some kind of sick game?"
"Normally I'm all for a good game, but not this time I don't like being lied to, it's quite rude."
"Won't they know you helped, why not come with me?"
"No my dear don't worry I will make it look like you got out on your own"
"But if he asks you, you will have to tell the truth because like you said it's rude to lie"
"Don't worry about me okay you just go"
After helping her out as well as making it look like she did it all on her own she stumbles through the dense fungus trying to get as far from there as possible but she is losing lots of blood and her wounds are making it hard to focus on anything as she falls to the ground.
Anakin feels his Padawan's getting closer as he runs towards her he calls out for her "Ahsoka Ahsoka where are you" nothing so he tries with his bond "Ahsoka I'm here where are you help me find you" but still nothing. He didn't have time for this. He kept running till he ran right past a mushroom with blood on it and stopped turning back looking around, he soon found her lying on the ground.
He picks her up looking at all the wounds as he looks around he sees someone watching them then disappear. As much as he wants to find them and make them pay he needs to her to a med bay, he runs as fast as he can towards the ship. When he returned with Ahsoka, the clones were ready to go as they took off. A man stands on the surface looking up as the ship leaves till it's out of sight with a smile on his face.
Once the ship landed Anakin ran out with Ahsoka in hand to the doctor that awaited his return. Ahsoka has been in the med bay for a while going from one exam room to the next and now she lay on the bed clean bandages but hasn't woken up other than the odd eye opening but saying nothing just getting flashes of what's happening.
As the clones were also being treated for their wounds Master Windu came to get the intel but when Rex gave him the chip he was less than impressed with what was on it.
"What is this?"
"The intel."
"Is this all of it?"
"Well all that we could get."
"So where's the rest of it?"
"We couldn't get it because the tower was rigged to blow."
"Well maybe you should have died getting the rest that way we might have a chance to know what they were up too."
Ps. Sorry I know it's a really sloppy but I'm hoping to fix before Christmas no promises, just wanted to try putting something out. I'm going to be going back to edit the chapters before posting anymore, so it may be a while before I post a new Chapter for this story. Again I apologize if there is anything you think I should fix, get rid of, add in I'm opening to hearing. Merry Crisis and a Happy New Fear.
