THIS IS THE NEW CHAPTER AS OF 7/17/22!

I mean it will be the first chapter of this story now, but for those who already saw the other chapter as the first one, I figured I should let them know so they can see it. I'll put a notice on the other chapter too so no one gets confused.


So, this will be the first Arc: Changes. Ok, in all honesty the first actual change will take place in the 3 chapter, but that's just what I named this arc.

Also, thank you to those of you who are following this story. It means a lot to me that someone would actually follow this when it only had one chapter up till now.

Alright on with the show!


"A messenger we are sending with important orders for General Kenobi," the hologram form of Master Yoda said to Admiral Yularen. Yularen and the Generals were fighting on Christophsis, and although he'd not heard from them recently, he was sure they'd won the planet.

And now he was taking a messenger straight to them for important orders.


"They're back!" Anakin alerted Obi-Wan as he heard the metallic marching once again.

"I told you this victory was too easy," he said as they prepared to fight the droids once again.


Holding out high up in a building, Rex asked, "What's our plan of attack, sir?"

"Follow me," Anakin smirked, and dove off the building into the firefight. Rex and the boys, with JT-12 jetpacks, followed their general into the fray filled with B1 battledroids, Super Battledroids, and Spiders.


"Looks like help has arrived," General Kenobi said as a shuttle went to land. "Our cruiser must be back."

"Which means we'll be able to get our reinforcements," Anakin grinned.

"Then I guess our problem's been solved. Fresh troops, new supplies, and perhaps they brought my new padawan with them."


"And who are you supposed to be?" Anakin asked this Togruta kid.

"I'm Ahsoka? Master Yoda sent me. I was told to tell both of you that you must get back to the Jedi Temple immediately. There's an emergency."

Anakin, wanting to get this CHILD out of a WARZONE, replied kinda rudely, "Well, I don't know if you've noticed, but we're in a bit of an emergency right here." 'Like look around, kid. We're totally outnumbered, we're low on rations and med supplies, and we're trying to hold out. For. Days,' a very distressed Anakin thought to himself.


"Master Kenobi. Glad Ahsoka found you I am."

"Master Yoda, we are trapped here and vastly outnumbered. We are in no position to go anywhere or do anything. Our support ships have all been destroyed."

"Send reinforcements to you we will." And that's when they lost contact.

"Master Yoda. Master Yoda!" Obi-Wan called. But it was no use.

Above them, their cruiser was taking a beating for the Separatist Bird of Prey's. "We've lost the transmission sir," the comms officer told Anakin.

Another came in saying, "We have to leave immediately. More enemy ships just arrived."

The first one then said, "We'll get back to you as soon as we can." Then the transmission cut.

Anakin, ever the sarcastic, said, "Ah, I guess we'll have to hold out a little longer."

Meanwhile Ahsoka was just kinda awkwardly watching their interactions. Obi-Wan noting this said, "My apologies, young one. It's time for a proper introduction." He walked over to her with a smile.

"I'm the new padawan learner," she explained. "I'm Ahsoka Tano."

"I'm Obi-Wan Kenobi, your new Master."

"I'm at your service Master Kenobi," Ahsoka started, "but I'm afraid I've been assigned to Master Skywalker."

"What?! NO, no, no, no, there must be some mistake." And for some reason Anakin felt like he was being pranked on by Obi-Wan. Prank might not be a strong enough word. Especially when she said Yoda was very specific. 'Karking green raisin has never been specific,' he thought. 'This has Obi-Wan written allllll over it.'


This was very unexpected. Not only had General Kenobi not received a padawan, but the youngling was actually going to Skywalker. 'Erm, what? Have you not seen how chaotic and unpredictable this guy is? I mean he's a good General so far but sheesh. This is nothing like the simulations on Kamino,' thought Captain Rex, CT-7567 as this Togruta girl introduced herself. 'This mission's already gone fubar. Now the banthashit's really hit the fan. There is a child in a warzone…I'm also a child in a warzone.

'She's very orange, unlike Master Ti. What other colors can they be? Question for later. Wing shapes on cheeks, two white diamond markings and a third orange diamond surrounded by white markings going to her eyebrows. Lekku and montrals are white and blue. Shabla haran she looks like us already, we clones are a terrible influence. Should be easy enough to keep track of.'

"There's been a mixup, the youngling's not with me," Anakin said. 'Ah, we're at the denial stage still,' Rex thought.

"Stop calling me that," the little one said. "You're stuck with me Skyguy," she said with a wink. That sent Rex into chuckles along with the other men in hearing range. It wasn't often you got to make a crack out of the General. 'Skyguy, I love it,' Rex mentally chuckled.

Then the General went into a tirade about not being snippy with him and not even old enough to be a padawan. 'Well General, I'm technically not old enough to be a soldier but here I am,' Rex thought to himself. And then Anakin pulled to Sabacc reverse card and said Rex would show her how a little respect would go a long way. He was gonna protest, but one look from Skywalker said 'Payback' and 'Follow orders'. "Ummm, right!" He tried to smile. "Come on, youngling."

"Padawan," Ahsoka mumbled.

'Snippy as all hell and I get the honor of breaking her in. Great,' Rex thought.


"So if you're a Captain, and I'm a Jedi, then technically I outrank you, right?" the girl asked, looking for an edge against the shrewd Captain.

"In my book, experience outranks everything." 'Hey,' Rex thought, 'they don't let you run the entire kriffing 501st if you're dumb.'

"Well if experience outranks everything, I guess I better start getting some," she replied. 'Good luck with that kid. Let me know how it goes,' Rex internally mocked. "What's that?" Ahsoka asked.

A red spherical shape began rising. "Not good," Rex saw. "We've got an energy shield. That's gonna make things damn near impossible. If you wanted experience, Little'un, it looks like you're about to get plenty."

The pair dashed back off to the command center. The men and the generals needed to know about this.


"But with a great deal of training and patience, she might amount to something," General Skywalker said as he decided to claim Ahsoka as his padawan after all.

Anakin and Ahsoka had proved quite vital when they took out the shield. That was the only way they could get their heavy artillery to do anything against the Seppies. Obi-Wan stalling them out had also been helpful.

It had been close. Too close. They'd won the battle, but Rex had lost a lot of good men. Well, at least he got a new commander. 'And off to Teth we go,' he unenthusiastically thought.


'Storytime,' Rex thought as he and many of the rest of Torrent Company enjoyed listening to Ahsoka drop a wall on the General. Many laughs were shared amongst the brothers at Skywalker's expense. He just had to ask. "Is that true sir?" 'I haven't laughed like this in too long.'

"Well…most of it," Anakin replied. "Alright men! We still got a job to do."

"Yes sir. You heard the General. Move it," Rex ordered his men.


"Blast it Ahsoka," Anakin said as he stared down droidekas. "I told you to stay with me."

Rex and Ahsoka stood by a walker which fired and obliterated the droids. "I can't get much closer Skyguy."

"I knew you'd get here Snips. Eventually."

"Always in time to save your life."

'Right he's calling her Snips now 'cause of her…snippiness. Maker please tell me we weren't this bad when we named ourselves,' poor Rex thought.

"All clear, General."

"Nice work Rex, have some men look after the wounded."

"Roger that, sir." 'We're already stretched too thin. Again.'


After saving a huttlett, losing many men 'For the Republic!', and getting another story from his funny commander, Rex had had himself a day.

In his Command Quarters on the cruiser, he thought about his new CO and how a child should never be put in a battlefield much less lead on one. Ironic, considering that was also him technically. And she was older than him by 3 years.

'Oh well it's not like having a copik'la commander will do us harm….and if I ever think that again I'll be reconditioned. Ah whatever, she's a kid, she's cute. All kids are….no, that hutt kid wasn't cute. By any means necessary.'

Rex decided he was alright with Ahsoka. And for the first time in a while, he fell asleep without listening to missiles, men screaming, and droids and clones blasting each other.


Ok so I wasn't planning on an Ahsoka chapter. But this kinda isn't a chapter? Like I didn't really put in the...effort for a chapter. It's kinda almost a flashback? Sort of? I just wanted to make it feel different than Survivors since a some of the chapters will be the same.

So after 7/17/22 any new chapters will actually be new chapters in the correct order. Sorry for the confusion! Also a Sabacc reverse card isn't real. I just couldn't help myself XD.

Thank you all for reading. Hope to see you all in the next one.

And if any thinks I'm lazy or that this was poorly written or produced...you're probably right lol. I also didn't want to include as much stuff because this was from the movie. I'm good with doing the episodes, but the movie was a. longer and b. not as good as the episodes. Like I didn't hate it, but I just like moments from it, not the whole thing.

Oop, almost forgot to put in Mando'a translations.

Copik'la/charming or cute (usually babies or animals, never a woman unless you want your head chopped off. Either of them. Mabye even both of them. Unless she likes being called cute, which means she's probably not Mandalorian.)
