Rumbling and shaking startled Sabine awake. Ahsoka had come and relieved her a few hours earlier to give her some time to rest, but now, because of the shaking, she was very awake. Sabine tried to stand to her feet, but the shaking of the ship nearly caused her to fall over. She was able to get her footing and quickly stumbled toward the front of the ship.

"What's going on?" Sabine had to yell above the roaring and clanking of the ship.

"I don't know. I have to bring us out of hyperspace." Ahsoka sat in the pilot's seat struggling with the controls of the ship as the blue faded to black around them.

The ships roaring seemed to quiet if only a little as the ship stalled in the darkness. A faint rattling still continued, but was much easier to keep steady than before.

Sabine sat in the seat next to Ahsoka and began tapping on the screen and buttons in front of her. She had run a diagnostic on the ship before they had left, so what could have gone wrong in only a few rotations in which they had been gone?

"It says something's wrong with the hyperspace engines." Sabine looked over to Ahsoka, annoyance very obvious on both their faces.

"Okay, well, the Hosnian system isn't too far from here, we won't have to use hyperspace to get there, but it could take a bit." Ahsoka said looking at a holomap in front of her. "We should have enough fuel to make it, but we'll have to refuel when we get there."

"Great, just another thing to slow us down." Sabine sat back in her seat and crossed her arms.

"We'll get there, Sabine, I promise." Ahsoka said reassuringly. Ahsoka turned the still shaking ship and headed toward a star that seemed to be much closer than the others, the light of it showing brighter through the window in front of them.

"So, you never really told me your history. How did you come to be a Jedi who's not actually a Jedi?" Sabine saw Ahsoka glance at her. She didn't know much about the Togruta, so maybe she would finally open up and reveal something about herself.

"That's … a long story, Sabine." Ahsoka said with hesitation in her voice. A moment passed, before she let out a sigh. "During the Clone Wars, when I was a padawan, I was accused of murdering someone." Sadness fell across Ahsoka's face. "So I left, I saw what was wrong with the Jedi Order, and left."

"I'm so sorry, Ahsoka," Sabine watched as several different emotions crossed Ahsoka's face. She knew what it was like to leave the only thing she knew. When she had left her family on Krownest, it had been the hardest decision of her life.

"Then, after a few months, I returned. One last mission in the Clone Wars on Mandalore."

"You fought on Mandalore?" Sabine's surprise evident in her voice, as she watched her friend relive her past.

"I fought Maul on Mandalore, and then the clones turned against me. I was able to save Rex and a few others, but the rest we buried, along with our old selves. I left my lightsabers on Mandalore in order to make it seem like I had died along with my battalion. Then, I ran. I couldn't sense any of the other Jedi after that. I was completely alone. Even my old master, Anakin Skywalker, one of the greatest Jedi to ever live was gone."

"I'm so sorry, Ahsoka. I had no idea." She always knew that there was a dark past between Ahsoka and Kanan. She had heard small bits of the stories that Kanan had told Ezra, but she had never heard them in such detail as Ahsoka had given. She could feel all the emotions Ahsoka felt. They seemed to hang in the air around the cabin.

"It's all in the past, Sabine." Ahsoka looked over and gently smiled at her friend. "In the beginning, I questioned why I was the one to survive the order, but now know why I'm still here. I'm here for you and Ezra, no matter where the road takes us, I'll be there to help you."

"Thank you, Ahsoka. The same goes to you also. I will be here for whatever you need." Sabine and Ahsoka shared a smile with each other as the star of the Hosnian system grew closer shining more light into the cabin.

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

As they drew closer to Hosnian Prime, the lights from the many buildings could be seen from the atmosphere. Never ceasing to be the twinkling lights in the shadow of the planet's night. As Sabine and Ahsoka's ship flew closer to the landing ports of the cosmopolitan planet, the shaking of the ship seemed to calm.

The ship touched ground with a clank in the small circular space port. Droids and workers seemed to immediately engulf the ship, trying to be the first there, so that they would be paid for their work before the others could be. Upon seeing the crowd outside of their ship, Sabine and Ahsoka simply walked through them, heading straight for the repair station. A few of the workers bumped against Sabine, their tools scraping against her helmet, which she now wore.

"Great, now I have an excuse to repaint it again." Sabine spoke as she felt a long scratch in the paint of her helmet. She had been planning on changing the color scheme, she just wasn't sure what she wanted yet.

The door to the repair station opened to reveal a small room packed with spare parts and a few droids here and there.

"Can I help you with something?" a deep voice spoke out loud and clear

Sabine looked around. She couldn't find where the voice was coming from. It seemed to be all around her.

A tall Besalisk walked out from behind one of the machines that stood in the center of the room. "How can I help you?" He grunted.

"Our ship needs to be repaired. We were hoping you'd be able to help us with that." Ahsoka spoke up before Sabine had been able to. "We already ran a diagnostic and it says the hyperdrive fuel is leaking."

"Yeah, I'll get someone started on it. But it'll cost ya'" the Besalisk spoke as he hit a button which allowed three little pit droids to activate.

"Of course." Ahsoka said politely. "We're just going to grab some supplies from the stores around the area and we'll be back." Ahsoka turned to head out the door, Sabine following suit as they left the crowded little room for an even more crowded city street.

The streets were packed with people trying to buy from the shops and merchants trying to sell their goods. Sabine had to push past large groups of people to keep up with Ahsoka. They stopped at several shops and picked up various food and supplies that they needed.

Finally, they reached a much less crowded area of the street, when a flash of light off of metal caught Sabine's eye. Near the shadow of a nearby building stood a Mandalorian, his armor much more worn than Sabine's, all except his shiny silver helmet reflected the light off of it.

Sabine's vision flashed through her mind again. The Mandalorian in silver who had walked by her now stood only a few yards away. Surely there had to be some reason she had seen him in her vision. Sabine slowly made her way toward the mandalorian when she saw him turn and raise his weapons. She was unable to see what he was looking at before an eruption of noises and screams took her by surprise and a shock wave knocked her to the ground.
