Chapter 6: Only the Requirements
A/N: Last chapter! YEAH! Let's watch Gwen save the day! Hmm, this should be interesting…

~Ahsoka's POV~
The guards froze and stared straight at Gwen, their mouths hanging open in shock. Gwen shook her head at them before throwing the pink glowing thing, knocking another guard out. She then flicked her arm up to touch her arm right below the shoulder. When she flicked it forward again, another pink glowing thing came out of her arm.
"Who's next? And close your mouths, you all look like guppies." Gwen smirked at their faces.
"Don't just stand there! Get her!" The Prime Minister yelled.
Gwen rolled her eyes, before somehow making the glowing thing disappear into thin air without knocking someone out. She then used complex hand to hand combat to knock them out. She gestured for Korkie and his friends to get behind her. The second they did, she lifted her hands up and pushed. Only instead of using the force to force-push them away, more of the pink stuff surged out of her… forming a solid pink force-field around them.
"Don't just stand there like fools! Break that force-field!" The Prime Minister's eye twitched in annoyance.
~Gwen's POV~
Just what I need, an excuse to show them what I am made of! Grandma? If you can hear me…tell Ben to hurry it up! Gwen formed a manna message to her grandmother.
"Gwen! Look!" Korkie yelled suddenly, pointing at the force-field.
Turning, I glanced up to see crack forming. I quickly pushed more manna out, strengthening it.
"How are you doing that!?" One of the guards screamed in frustration as he fired more shots at us.
"Sorry, I just started this new tradition that I won't explain anything about me to complete strangers about five seconds ago." I quipped back, rolling my eyes at their brilliance.
Unfortunately, the time it took to say that was just enough for the force-field to shatter. Which means I crashed into the wall behind me. As I scrambled back up, one of the guards placed his blaster right at my head. Swallowing, I glanced up to look him in the eye… only to look above him to see a very welcome sight.
~Ahsoka's POV~
I wanted to scream. Apparently the force-field and some kind of side effect where the person who was in control of it went flying backwards a few feet after it shatters. One of the guards got ready to shoot Gwen, but just as he went to pull the trigger… a man made entirely of metal dropped down, slicing the blaster in half.
"What are you!?" One of the guards freaked out.
"You mean who. It is rude to call someone a what. Kevin, everyone not in handcuffs are part of a conspiracy. Did everyone get that, or do I need to speak louder? Just presuming that the guy that has broken out of jail twice now, and is on probation, will have others with him to keep him in line…" Gwen pushed herself up, raising her voice near the end.
"Wait, What?!" I yelped the exact same time as the Prime Minister, Duchess Satine, and Korkie and his friends.
A second later a motley group of strange never before seen aliens and humans jumped down from above.
~Gwen's POV~
I stopped myself from squealing when Ben, Cooper, Alan (human form!), Pierce, Helen, and Manny, leaped down to join us.
"Gwen, you do know you have your badge…and why did you have to blow such a large hole into Vilgax's new warship?" Ben 'politely' reminded me about my badge, and then questioned my sanity.
"Maybe you should tell him that you absolutely despise me, and will not crumble to his will if he holds me hostage…I'm getting tired of him capturing me." I grumped at him.
"Ok. Anyone remember anything that the majistar ever said?" Ben turned to glance at their friends.
"Sure. He said: How did YOU get into the Academy!?."Kevin mimicked the majistar in charge of the Academy.
We all groaned at him for choosing to remember that particular conversation. I glanced at Pierce knowing that Ben was referring to something more up his alley.
"It's only a fair fight if you use your blasters and fists only." Pierce rolled his eyes at our favorite advice, to ignore.
"Don't we usually ignore that since I have yet to meet a bounty hunter that fights fair, if that is the case." Helen commented.
Thirty more guards walked in right then. Ben and Kevin both glanced at them, and promptly grinned like maniacs.
"Whoever knocks out the most bad guys, wins!" Ben yelled right before he transformed into Humongusuar.
I rolled my eyes and leapt straight into the battle. I quickly lost track of my friends, only catching glimpses of them as they hollered out warnings to one another.
~Ahsoka's POV~
Where is she? I can't see Gwen anywhere! Worry began nagging at me. I could only hear the occasional names shouted. It was usually followed by a yell off 'on it' by whoever the name belonged to. I watched nervously as the dust started to clear. Amazingly, all of the guards were knocked down, leaving the Prime Minister all alone. Gwen's, companions? Is that the right word?, rushed over to us and undid our binds. All of them except Gwen and the boy with brown hair and a dark green jacket. They stood right in front of the minister.
"Yes! I totally smoked you back there!" The brown haired boy announced.
"No, they wouldn't… not now." Kevin groaned.
"Uh, no you didn't. I knocked out more guards than you." Gwen snapped back.
"Uh, no." Brown haired said.
"Uh, yeah." Gwen snarked back.
"Yep, their doing it. Cousin fight. Any bets?" A humanoid with spikes sticking out of his skin asked.
"Sure. Gwen will use her manna Frisbee same time Ben will side swipe with his left leg." The female lizard announced.
I blinked as everyone except Kevin suggested something that both Gwen and the now named Ben were going to do to each other. As they continued arguing in front of the prime minister.
"Hey, Kevin? You have any guesses?" The dark skinned boy that reminded me of Master Windu asked suddenly.
"Sure do, Alan. Gwen's gonna laser same time Ben does a right hook. Which will happen about… right…now." Kevin smirked as Gwen suddenly shot lasers out of her eyes straight at the prime minister same time that Ben punched him in the chin.
I stared at them as they calmly walked over. They had barely approached us when a couple of things occurred to me.
"Wait! You weren't making your cousin up?! Hold on, I thought you said you only learned the requirements at your school." I babbled senselessly.
"Umm, Ahsoka? Relax. This is my annoying cousin, Ben. And most of our friends. That and, hand to hand combat is a requirement at the Academy. As well as weapon control, weapon usage, and how to evaluate a situation. Yeah, military school, all graduates automatically join the forces at graduation." Gwen smiled sheepishly at them.
"Well, since your friends are…" I started to say
"How did you shoot lasers out of your eyes?! Or that force-field trick, or maybe even that glowing pink thing you throw!" Korkie interrupted me.
"Slow down." Gwen raised her hand up to stop Korkie's onslaught.
"Wait, do they not know you're part Anodite?" Ben interrupted her.
"YOU'RE PART ANODITE!?" I screeched.
"Take that has a yes, Ben." Kevin commented.
"Ahsoka, breathe. That, and why are you surprised? I told you about Crazy Grandma Vervonda, and out-to-get-me Cousin Sunny. Really shouldn't be a surprise." Gwen rolled her eyes at me.
"That was your family? I'm going to go lay down." I gulped as everything sank in.
~Time skip, three days later, Anakin's POV~
Snips was waiting for me to pick up them up, but Gwen wasn't there. Perplexed, I opened the door to let her in.
"Hey Snips. Where's Gwen?" I asked when she didn't say anything about her absence.
"Oh. She's back on her home planet. And she was not making up the whole cousin sneaking up on her thing. I met him. His name is Ben Tennyson. Yeah…umm, those Anodites she told us about were her grandmother and cousin." Snips shook her head as if she was still amazed about that.
"This is going to be interesting to explain to the council…" I murmured softly.
A/N: Done! Yes! Gwen's home! And Ahsoka and Anakin both are highly concerned with the sanity of Gwen's family.
BYE!
