The Ameliorator

Chapter 1

The heat of battle was getting intense and body of clones and scraps of droids scattered everywhere on the town square, several starfighters was shot down and Admiral Tezka's cruiser was destroyed. Many of Ahsoka's men were killed and Master Ferroda was wounded on the left leg.

"Nox, what are the reports from the other side of the palace?", the surprisingly young Jedi Knight asked her clone friend. Ahsoka had bonded with Nox very quickly when she first received him as a second-in-command of her battalion, the captain was very modest and respectful and his specialization are with demolitions and the medical field. He had treated many of Ahsoka's wounds from other battles before this one.

"Lieutenant Hone reported that they are doing well and they had taken almost half of the palace General Tano!", her clone colleague replied.

"Then we'll take the other half. Rally our men, we'll take a direct approach. I'll contact Master Plo for cover to.", Ahsoka's comlink beeped and she told her advisor and friend, "Master Plo, I need aerial cover from you and your squadron, are you able master?"

"Regrouping with some fighters and getting to your location Little Soka. May the Force be with you.", replied Master Plo.

"Thank you master. Troops! Follow me!", the teenage Togruta commanded her troopers.

Ahsoka and almost all of her remaining forces barged in to the blazing battlefield. Bolts of lasers was deflected back by the junior Jedi's chartreuse lightsabers, she was also getting used to the curved hilt and Anakin always joked her that she is now sharing something common with Dooku though that he is now dead. Very little of her troops were shot or killed and the droids are being annihilated, they were retreating into the palace. Ahsoka's comlink beeped once more and Master Ferroda's voice said.

"Knight Tano. Me and my troops have taken the throne room and captured the viceroy, I need you to take out the remaining droids and meet with me in the throne room."

"Will do Master Ferroda, we are approaching the throne room now. Ahsoka Tano out.", she replied to the Chiss Jedi.

She, Nox and the other clones closed in to the throne room. Nox took down dozens of droids with his rotary cannon and Ahsoka also did well cutting down droids that her troops can't handle like droidekas and Magnaguards. Then they made it to the throne room where she saw Master Ferroda and his clones with a handcuffed Nute Gunray.

"Great work Ahsoka. You really did well.", the gentle Jedi Master commented her skills.

"Thank you master. You did better than me capturing the viceroy.", she replied.

"Let me go! Grievous will come here and kill you all!", the Neimoidian viceroy babbled.

"Well reports say that Master Kenobi already killed Grievous. So, no chance for you to escape.", Ahsoka smirked at Nute. Then she felt something struck her mind like lightning, it was Anakin. What happened? Then she turned and sensed shattered and whispers from the other clone except Nox referring to something called Order 66.

"Master Ferroda! Defend yourself!", Ahsoka shouted out and the clones began shooting at her and the Jedi Master. Nox set his cannon to stun and shot some of his troops down.

"Men! What are you doing!? This is General Tank and Ferroda!", he screamed out to his fellow brothers.

Master Ferroda shrieked in pain as he got shot in the stomach and then his forehead. The Chiss fell to the ground and his lightsaber dropped.

"Master!", Ahsoka called to the fallen Jedi then pulled Ferroda's lightsaber to her belt. She then released a gust of telekinesis at the remaining troops stunning them. Then Ahsoka contacted Master Plo on her comlink.

"Master Plo! Are you alright!?", Ahsoka asked worriedly.

"I've got my own troops on my tails Ahsoka, Wolffe seems to be the only one that is not attacking me.", replied the skillful Jedi Ace.

"That's because Rex removed the chip from him and also from Nox. That seems to be why the two of them are not attacking us."

"I'll need to escape or destroy my own troopers if I have no choice. Meet me at these coordinates Little Soka. Please, be safe.", Ahsoka frowned at Plo's voice. She was still thinking of Anakin, what could have happened to him? Master Kenobi also. Then she turned to Gunray, he was lying on the floor dead, Ahsoka sighed and rushed to an ARC-701 starfighter passing all the "traitorous" clones stunning some of them and cutting their weapons. Nox followed behind and sat at the co-pilot seat.

"General, what happened? My men, the chip in our heads.", the voice behind the cyan painted helmet asked.

"I have no idea either Nox, we'll figure this out once we get to safety.", she replied back then fired up the engines and began to fly to the rendezvous point.

Plo Koon avoided another searing bolt of laser from on of his men. He tried not tours them but then he had to. With Wolffe's help, they shot down several starfighters as the approach the meeting place.

"Wolffe! I'll shut down my engines, cover me!", the Kel Dor said to his long-time friend, he was about to do the "Baran Do Run" a technique he invented himself as a star pilot. He then shut down his engines and his Delta-class Jedi Starfighter, an old design fell pass the two other fighters that followed him and Wolffe. Then the engines flared to life again as Plo hardly decided to press blaster trigger. BOOOM! KABAAM! The two remaining ships were destroyed and he and Wolffe turned 56-degrees left to the meeting place.

-line break-

Ahsoka put her hands above her eyes as she looks at Master Plo's and Wolffe's starfighter approached by the sun.

"Master Plo!", she ran in and hug the old Kel Dor as he gets out of his starfighter's cockpit.

"Little Soka, you're safe. Thanks the Force.", the Jedi Master prayed.

"Sir, we should get going. I think The Empire is going to look for us soon.", Wolffe said holding up a holoprojecter as it flared up the blue holographic figure of Chancellor Palpatine but a lot frailer.

"I have an important announcement to make. The Jedi has betrayed up and tried to murder me! I have ordered the Clone Army to take care of the other Jedi that are fighting in the war to kill them, or they will soon take over the whole Republic! But now, I declare the first Galactic Empire in the galaxy!", the voice of a wicked old man relished in success as members of the Senate cheered.

"A Sith Lord! This close! How have we never realized!", Plo lashed out in despair. They all feel it, Ahsoka and Plo, the death of so many Jedi at the hands of Palpatine. But they were both sure that there are more survivors apart from them, Master Yoda, Master Kenobi and hopefully Anakin. But Ahsoka sensed what happened, he was dead, but there was still a presence of him just not the same, it seems dimmer and... darker? She was right, this is the start of a new dark era.
