This is it! We head out to Malachor just as Yoda told Ezra. A Sith Temple lies there as well as dark adversaries. Ahsoka and I talk to Rex before we lose communication. It brought back so many memories I could barely hold back my tears. When the call ended, I brought Ahsoka into my arms tightly as if it were the last time we'd see each other. Will it? I certainly hope not! What would I do without Ahsoka?

Before this ever happened however, Chopper was able to locate a safe planet for a Rebel Base. Funny thing is that it was found over a droid leg he wanted. The planet wasn't very welcoming till we found a way to fend off these bugs. Brings back memories of Geonosis.

When we arrive I sense that feeling again and I'm beginning to think it is Darth Vader. Ahsoka knows I'm anxious so she stays close to me in case of danger. She looks at me like everything will be okay. How can it be? We could be walking to our death! Just as I thought, when Ezra reached for a red glowing orb we fall into the planet and stand face to face with a Sith Temple.

"Okay! I've seen enough! Let's go Ahsoka!" I said panicking.

"No! We're not leaving yet!" She said taking my arm.

If she's not leaving, then I'm not leaving. So we journey through the planet and see what appears to be a battlefield. It reminded me of The Chronicles of Narnia with the stoned people in the White Witch's castle. That's just me though. It's really a place where a battle was fought many years ago and from what Ahsoka can tell no one won.

Suddenly, an Inquisitor appears so Ahsoka pushes me behind a huge rock for safety. I hear saber clashes, explosions, yells and screams. Ezra falls into a hole in the ground, but he's safe so we continue to move on. Or is he? Darth Maul lures Ezra into darkness while I and my friends journey through Malachor. This place is covered in darkness I find it hard to see in here, but the dim red light helps a little.

When we arrive the temple takes a different shape because Ezra took the Sith Holocron and now he must place it somewhere on the top floor. Of course the Inquisitors chase us on their helicopter sabers. How cheap! Ahsoka helps up to the next floor and I watch from above.

"Wait! Where's the Seventh Sister?" I wondered.

She was killed by Maul since Ezra refused to do it himself. I know I would even though it'd be killing an enemy. It'd be hard to bring myself to do it. Maul however has no problem taking all of them out on his own. Ezra and I head up to the top while Ahsoka and Kanan handle Maul. Why? He's a bad guy! I take one look back and see Kanan loose his eye sight which made me jump.

"Oh my gosh!" I yelled.

"What's wrong?" Ezra asked.

"Oh! Nothing! Let's go!" I said trying to hide what I saw.

Once we reach the top, Ezra places the Holocron in place and the temple shakes again. My stomach turns into knots when I hear the Tie Fighter from behind. I run to the ends of the floor to look for Ahsoka and call for her. She was nowhere to be found. At a distance I see Ezra fight Vader and he loses in 10 seconds. Tempted to run, I see Ahsoka stand ready to fight. My eyes tear up a bit thinking this might be it. I inch a little closer to listen to what they are saying.

"I was beginning to believe I knew who you were behind that mask. But it's impossible! My master would never be as vial as you!" She yelled.

"Anakin Skywalker was weak. I destroyed him." Vader said in his deep voice.

"Then I will avenge his death!" She said starting to growl.

"Revenge is not the Jedi way." He pointed.

"I am no Jedi!" She growled.

Ouch! Seeing Ahsoka with a sad yet angry look broke me because she's hurting inside and mad (and sad) at Anakin for turning away. I watch these two clash sabers and it frightens me. Ahsoka is doing well, but for how long? She and Vader know each other's fighting styles. The outcome I fear will be ugly.

Ezra tries to get the holocron protected by red lightning, but he fails because it takes a master and an apprentice to remove it. So Kanan and Ezra do it together. Meanwhile I follow the battle and Ahsoka is losing focus. My heart pounds so hard it's like a fist to the chest and my body is shivering like a vibrator. Never in my life have I felt like this! Seeing this happen before my eyes is unbelievable. When Ahsoka is pushed off the edge to the next floor I inch away from Vader so we don't meet face to face.

Finally I get the chance to keep my eyes on Ahsoka and stay at a safe distance from Vader. Ezra and Kanan are leaving because the temple is collapsing and they got what they came for. Vader pulls them in using the Force, but Ahsoka jumps in and cuts half of his mask. I run as fast as I could to her and I witness an unlikely reunion. The face of Anakin Skywalker can be seen, but it's clouded in darkness.

"I won't leave you! Not this time." She said promising him.

"Then you will die!" Vader said turning his saber on.

"NO! Ahsoka!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

She pushes me and Ezra away from coming near. The wall closes to where neither I nor Ahsoka can turn back. Sabers still clash at the last few seconds till the temple explodes. I refuse to leave my best friend behind even if I'm going to die in this explosion. Do I? Will I?

Suddenly, a shield is formed around me just before the temple explodes. Who did it? It was Future Ahsoka! Behind the shield I watch the huge explosion and weep thinking my friend is dead. Is she? Darth Vader we all know survives because he can't die till Episode VI. What about Ahsoka? Did she die by Vader's hand?

When the smoke clears, I can see two figures: one is Vader and the other has to be Ahsoka. I run to her, but Future Ahsoka stops me. Vader walks away limping from all the damage he took. I still try to reach Ahsoka, but I'm not going anywhere.

"Ahsoka! Over here!" I yelled.

"She can't hear nor see you." Future Ahsoka said.

"That's it then!? What happens to Ahsoka?" I asked.

"Only time will tell, but your story with her ends here."

I fall to the dusty floor begging for this to not be true. There's no way I can go on knowing this is the end for me and Ahsoka. She's everything I ever could want and need. No, I'm not saying we're "girlfriends" I'm just saying she means everything to me as a best friend. There's no way I'd compromise my morals! In times like these I'd state how I feel, cry it out, and do my best to move on.

"Run a blade through my heart why don't you!?" I cried.

"Just because your story with Ahsoka ends doesn't mean your life ends." Future Ahsoka pointed.

"True, but it feels like the end. I don't wanna go back to my world!" I said continuing to cry.

"Right now the best thing to do is let these wounds heal. Remember to stay on the path of light and do not sway into the darkness." She explained.

"What I feel isn't of the light!" I cried.

"Feelings don't determine your path: however, they can motivate you onto one. Only your choices define your path." She explained yet again in her wisdom.

That made me feel a little better, but I'm still hurting inside. Ahsoka is probably in conflict with herself or severely hurt. Maybe both! It's hard to say where she's going now. The best thing to do is wait and see what opens.

"I guess now would be a good time to leave." I sighed.

"Yes, but if you wish to lament longer be my guest." Future Ahsoka said wrapping her arm around me.

"Thanks for understanding." I said falling into her arms.

I wept as long as it took for me to feel better and went home. This adventure may have been shorter, but it was more intense getting to see Ahsoka fight her former master now known as Darth Vader. What happens to her now is unknown, however, one day we will see her through to the end of her time. Sad as it may be, but she will be reunited with her master and the other Jedi as well.

I find this to be a happy ending because I'm at ease knowing Ahsoka, deep down she will chase the light and not sway into darkness. Also, a novel is coming in October for Ahsoka where it takes place between when she left up to when she came in Rebels. So many exciting adventures await you and I! Let's not dwell on the past, but on what's here and what's to come. Live even when it's hard, problems are a sign of life. Keep going! The best is yet to come!
