Twisted inside chapter 11
"We don't know what happened Knight Skywalker we found her like this and she hasn't moved or said a word to anyone since" A healer said as she led a worried master to his padawan. "When I went to check up on her I found her in the corner of the room and she refused to move, she looks terrified" the healer continued as the opened the doors to the halls of healing. Anakin found his apprentice sitting at the far end of the room legs pulled tightly to her chest and both arms wrapped around her legs. "Ahsoka?" Anakin said quickening his pace till he kneeled down next to her. She was staring off at a wall either not noticing Anakin or ignoring him but her lips were moving in a motion over and over as if she were repeating something to herself.
"Ahsoka" Anakin said softly as he reached out placing a hand on her shoulder trying to gain her attention. Still he continued to go unnoticed by her even when he stepped directly in front of her face "Ahsoka it's Anakin are you ok?" he asked even more worried now. He focused his hearing so he could try to understand what she was whispering again and again but all he could make out was 'I didn't hurt them' the rest was so softly he couldn't understand. Anakin shook her gently on the shoulder "Ahsoka" he said a little louder "Snap out of it."
"The voice…it made me…it wasn't me…" she muttered softly as her eyes remained locked onto a far wall and her mechanical hands squeezed and released her legs continuously. To Anakin's every growing worry this continued for about another five minutes before the young padawan seemed to snap herself out of it. Her eyes slowly shifted from the wall to the blue eyes of Anakin, she looked confused dazed even. "How…did I get on the floor?" she asked. Anakin just thankful that she was somewhat alright wrapped her in a hug even though he felt her tense up. "It's ok Ahsoka" he said pulling back after a moment to look at her.
"I was going to ask you the same thing Snips. The healers said they found you here this morning talking to yourself" Anakin said. Ahsoka tilted her head to one side "I don't remember getting up and walking over here" she said looking back over to the bed she had been in earlier. "Ahsoka?" Anakin said gently drawling the padawan's blue eyes back toward him. "What do you mean a voice made you? Made you do what?" Anakin asked.
She shook her head and tighted the grip she had on her legs, the voice it made her it, forced her to do those things. She repeated this in her head as if wishing it hard enough would make it come true. She didn't want to hurt them to begin with now in the way she did anyway. Yet from the back of her mind the voice was whispering to her that she did want to hurt them the way she had. That they deserved what they got both of them.
They were weak they were beneath you and their failure to realize that forced you to punish them. You have power you have control make the weak serve you!
"No get out of my head!" Ahsoka yelled as her hands grabbed the side of her head tightly "I wont listen to you!" she cried out. "Ahsoka, Ahsoka what is it?" Anakin said reached out and touching her shoulder.
Fear they should all fear you for they are weak and you are strong. The strong rule over the weak, power over the powerless. Hate, anger, fear you have so much child, embrace it embrace your destiny.
She squeezed her head tighter and buried her face into her knees trying to drive the voice form her head or at least shrink away from it. The voice was clearer than it had been yesterday it was louder and the dull ach in her chest was begin to grow again. "Leave me alone!" Ahsoka cried loudly. Anakin looked at Ahsoka and noticed a small on the force collar she was wearing was flashing steadily. Something must be wrong with the collar; he looked around for the healer that had brought the idea of using the force caller to begin with. He found her on the other side of the large room with another padawan "Hold on Ahsoka" Anakin said and ran quickly over to the healer to tell her what was going on.
As Anakin ran off Ahsoka was stuck dealing with her 'problem' her breathing began to become very shallow. She could feel the collars effect was getting weaker and her ability to touch the force returning. With each past moment the voice was louder and the burning in her chest began to grow hotter. She could feel the lightside begin to fade away from her and the dark coming up to sweep her away.
Moments later Anakin was back at her side with the healer kneeling down beside Ahsoka who was now crumpled up on the floor. The healer examined the collar "Power cell is drained, hold her still while I get another one" the healer order and quickly ran off. Anakin looked down with a very worried face "Hold on Ahsoka" he said as he placed both hands on her to keep her from thrashing.
The healer came back with another power cell in her hand and a tool to pull out the old one "Hold her still" the healer ordered as she leaned down to pull the old cell out. She undid the protective casing that held the power cell. "So bright….the light its so bright…" Ahsoka almost whimpered out. The healer pulled the old powercell out with the tool and the collar completely died.
Ahsoka began clawing at her arms as the burning in her body spread like a wild fire "The light…the light…the light" she said. The healer carefully began to put the other power cell in place when the padawan began thrashing violently in Anakin's grasp making her drop the cell. "Hold her still!" The healer yelled grabbing the power cell. Anakin turned Ahsoka's head to the side and place his knee against her face. "The light…" Ahsoka struggled out as her crystal blue eyes were engulfed in darkside corruption and the irises turned a mixture of red and yellow. "The light must die!" Ahsoka yelled and began to push Anakin off of her. His knee slipped from her face and he forced her arms down holding them to her side. His eyes widened in horror as he looked back the rage filled irises of his padawan. "Got it" the healer exclaimed closing the protective shield on the power cell. Lights on the collar began to flash rapidly as the collar began to turn back on. Ahsoka blasted Anakin off of her with the force sending him skidding across the ground and she quickly jumped up and lunched herself at the healer. Both her mechanical hands latched around the healer's throat and she quickly began squeezing. The padawan that was sitting in a bed across the room gasped in horror as what he saw. Anakin jumped up quickly and ran at Ahsoka to get her off of the healer.
The healer kicked and thrashed trying to get the padawan off of her, she let out chocked cries for help but Ahsoka was quickly silencing them as she added more pressure to her neck. A sadistic smile spread widely across her face showing her sharp togrutan teeth as she was watching the light began to leave the Jedi's eyes. Then suddenly something changed as a darkside immerse Ahsoka felt her connection to the force suddenly fade as the collar activated.
Her eyes began to turn back to their normal blue color then they widened in horror at what she saw in front of her. Slowly her hand released from around the healers throat then something hit her in the back and she felt tightly arms grip around her as she was thrown off of the healer. Next she found herself being pinned to the ground by her master and Anakin was relieved to see her eyes back to their normal color. Ahsoka looked over at the healer who was couching loudly and slowly pulling herself back to her feet. She looked back at Anakin with eyes full of fear at what she had done.
