Ahsoka never thought it could happen, never thought it could be possible, never thought the armor could be breached. And as she practically flew down the hall, gripping the wall corners as she skidded around them, she begged it not to be true.

"You have to let me in there! Please Kix! Let me in!" Ahsoka begged, trying to push her way past him.

"I'm sorry Ahsoka. But you can't go in there! I'll come get you when we're done." Kix tried to placate the commander but to no avail.

By this time other troopers had reached the argument ensuing in the hall.

"Kix! Please! You have to let me!" Ahsoka's voice was close to hysteric as she once again tried to push past the medic.

Ahsoka opened her mouth again to try another tactic but the words were caught in her throat and her shoulders slumped and trembled slightly. Kix's eyes softened a little before nodding to the other troopers standing behind her. Echo gently grabbed Ahsoka's arm and pulled her away from the med bay entrance.

"There's nothing we can do for the Captain right now Ahsoka. It's best if we just stay out here and let them do their work." The ARC Trooper said comfortingly

"You saw it Echo! You saw how bad it was!" Ahsoka was hysteric now.

Fives stepped in with Tup, Dogma, Hardcase, and Jesse.

"Commander... Ahsoka, udesii, Kix and Coric are the best there is. Rex is going to be fine, you'll see. He'll be up and yelling at all us slackers soon enough." Fives explained softly

"Perhaps we should all get some caff and wait for some news." Tup suggested

"I'm going to my chambers. I should probably meditate or something." Ahsoka declined

"We'll bring you some caff and check in in a little." Jesse patted Ahsoka shoulder supportively

Ahsoka entered her cabin, popped her boots off and discarded them haphazardly before flopping on her bed. With a deep breath, the young padawan felt the rush of adrenaline leave her as the day's events replayed in her head.

FLASHBACK:

"Captain Rex, take Torrent Company and cover the west end of the forest. Commander Tano, take a squad and scout the nearby building." General Skywalker ordered

"Copy that." The subordinates answered in unison before departing for their assignments.

Approximately 30 minutes later the coms erupted in urgent chatter as all haran broke loose.

"We need backup! We've been ambushed!"

"We need a medic!"

"We've got two squads down!"

"Where are our reinforcements?!"

And the blessed final call for Ahsoka. "Ahsoka, take your men and three other squads and go assist Rex and Torrent!"

"Copy that Master, we're on our way!"

When Ahsoka and the other reached the point of ambush, it was worse than they had expected. Apparently as a final act of resistance, the enemy had created an effective trap and had pinned down the company, who were finally making headway now they were over the initial surprise. With reinforcements, the skirmish was quickly finished and the cleanup began. The medics patched up the wounded, who luckily who had sustained only minor wounds, and sent them back to base. Ahsoka paused in the clean up process and looked around for a second, brow furrowed. There was a slight disturbance in the Force swirling nearby and Ahsoka scanned for the source. When she pinpointed it, her face paled. Rex was leaning up against tree, gripping his thigh.

"Rex! Oh my gosh! What happened?" Ahsoka gripped his arm with concern

"I'm fine. Just a scratch. Are the rest of the men okay?" Rex half muttered

"The others are fine! You are not! Let me see!" Ahsoka insisted, pulling at his hand.

When she pulled his hand away, she gasped.

"Rex! Oh my gosh!" She breathed in "MEDIC! We need a medic right now!" Ahsoka's scream was panicked and desperate.

Seeing the wound, Kix was running before Ahsoka was finished with her sentence. He quickly eased his captain down to the ground and pressed hard on the wound, calling for a medpack and a gurney.

Ahsoka stood off to the side while they loaded up her pale and unconscious boyfriend onto the gurney and raced towards the base. She finally snapped out of it when Fives placed a hand on her shoulder, and she took off running.

Ahsoka started awake from her restless slumber by a knock on the door. She waved her hand and the door opened to admit Echo and Tup with a steaming cup of caff and a tray of food.

"Hey Com… Ahsoka. We brought you some food and caff; figured you could use something." Echo offered

"Thanks boys." Ahsoka took the tray and caff and sat down at her desk and started eating. "Any news?"

"None. They've finally locked us out about 30 minutes ago, but Coric promised to com us as soon as there's news." Tup answered

Ahsoka nodded while she ate a few more bites of food.

"You doing okay, vod'ika?" Echo questioned softly

Ahsoka set down her fork and sighed.

"He never gets hurt. Ever. So I guess I'm just a little worried. I mean how did he get shot? He has armor and a kama, so how did he get shot?" Ahsoka shook her head

"Sometimes these things happen. And there's not much we can do about it." Echo attempted comfortingly

"But never to Rex!" Ahsoka argued

"That's not necessarily true. Remember Saleucami? He got shot back then too. It was bad back then and he pulled through just fine. And he'll be just fine this time too." Jesse came and joined the conversation "Now do you want our help in sneaking you into the med bay? Kix just commed and said that Rex is out of surgery and will be in a bacta tank for a little bit before they move him to recovery. But us boys figured that you wouldn't want to wait another 6 hours to see your dear Captain, so Fives has dragged Dogma, Hardcase, and Chopper away from their half-hearted Sabacc game and will meet us at the med bay so we can sneak you in." Jesse grinned and Ahsoka's lips quirked upwards.

Four hours later when Kix and two med droids came to remove Rex from the bacta tank they found Ahsoka curled up in a chair next to the tank. Once they removed him and moved him into the recovery room, Kix shook his commander's shoulder to wake her.

"Ahsoka." Said commander blinked her eyes open. "Hey. We just moved Rex to the recovery room."

The togruta nodded her thanks before slipping into said recovery room, curling up in the chair next to the biobed, and gripped her boyfriend's hand. Before she knew it, Ahsoka was sound asleep, her head on the biobed.

"Ahsoka?"

Ahsoka awoke to someone slowly caressing her back lek.

"Rex?" She murmured sleepily

A soft chuckle woke her completely and she sat up in her chair.

"Rex!" She breathed, leaning over and kissing him.

"Hey, Cyar'ika."

"Hey back Rexster, I'm glad you're okay."

"Takes more than a stray bolt to take me out."

Ahsoka's lip trembled slightly "Why didn't you say anything? You almost bled out! The medics said if it had hit even an inch over then you wouldn't be here!"

Rex propped himself on an elbow and grasped his girlfriend's hand.

"Udesii Cyar'ika. I'm okay. In my defense I didn't even feel it until after everything calmed down."

Ahsoka nodded with a small smile.

"How did you get in here anyway? I thought for sure Kix or Coric would have locked everyone out." Rex changed the subject

"You have no idea. But it turns out Fives and the others are really good at sneaking people into med bays." Ahsoka smiled fully now

"You have no idea." Rex smirked and laid back down.
