Aislinn and Dominic arrived on Coruscant the previous day and there they were able to rest. Aislinn talked to the Jedi Council while Dominic went to go see old friends who might be on Coruscant.

They were overall having an uneventful time on the planet. It was idle time, and they weren't needed. Aislinn heard Anakin and Obi-wan had taken their Padawans to Hoth for a rogue mission so for now it was helping train the younglings or training Dominic.

It wasn't long before Dominic started getting bored. So he decided to present a novel plan to Aislinn.

"We go see the Team Coruscant play limmie at the BlasTech Gikosphere. They're playing against Bylluran Athletic!"

Aislinn looked unsure. "Limmie? Not the most popular sport on Coruscant. And I am not much of a sports fan." She stared out the large window looking down on the city.

Dominic only looked at her and smiled.

Aislinn sighed. "Oh, fine." Aislinn slipped off her brown Jedi robe so she wouldn't stand out too much. Though, the lightsaber definitely gave it away. She took the string out of her light blond hair and let it fall down her back.

"Yes!" Dominic said. "My friends will be jealous."

Aislinn rolled her eyes, though she was smiling. It was better than sitting around doing who knows what.

They made it to the stadium in no time. It was still brimming with loud fans, despite the unpopularity of the sport on this planet. Dominic and Aislinn managed to find some seats, surrounded by a crowd waiting in anticipation for the game to start.

"This is it!" Dominic said, and he jumped out of his seat when the players entered the field. He cheered loudly.

Aislinn smiled. The crowd's energy was exhilarating, even if she wasn't that into the game itself. The game went on and at first Aislinn was into it, but eventually grew bored. It was fun for the first half, but after that it grew tedious and was the same thing over and over again. But she could see Dominic was having fun, and didn't want to ruin his night. And most of all, she learned compassion and patience from her Jedi training.

"Hey!" Dominic suddenly said. "Aren't those some of the Clone troopers?" He pointed a few rows up and to the right.

"Um, it sure does look like them," Aislinn said. "But what are they doing at this limmie game?" She looked closer and realized one of them was Rex. His shaved hair was unmistakable.

"Are they allowed to do this?"

"I would assume so. The Jedi Order believe in treating them as people."

"And you?"

Normally Aislinn wouldn't agree, but now things were different. "I don't know. They're not as low droids, that's for sure. And even some of those have personality."

"I don't know, they may be all Clones, but they all have different personalities. Each one is a different person." Dominic looked up at them. "We should say 'Hi.'"

Aislinn stared at him. "What?"

"Come on, Ash – Aislinn – I mean, master. We're going to be fighting alongside them, might as well get to know some. And Rex leads the Torrent Company. You guys are going to be doing a lot of leading together. You make a great team, remember?"

"That was probably a one-time thing. Torrent Company was assigned to serve under Anakin Skywalker."

"And what about right now when Anakin is on Hoth with Obi-wan? Who's gonna lead them then?"

Aislinn sighed, deafeated. There was no point in arguing further. "Fine, we'll go say 'hi.' And that's it. I feel weird enough as it is."

Dominic led the way up the stadium to where the Clones were seated. There were only three or four, counting Rex.

"Hey, Rex!" Dominic said enthusiastically.

One of the Clones looked at them in shock and immediately saluted.

Aislinn laughed and said before the other two could do the same, "We're off duty, no need for formalities."

"Alright," said Rex. "Hello, Dominic. Aislinn. This is Fives and Echo, two of my men."

Ashley nodded at both of them. She assumed Fives was the one with the "5" tattooed on the right of his forehead. Aislinn had no clue how Dominic didn't find this awkward whatsoever.

"I will admit, I never would have guess you were a bolo-ball fan, sir," Rex remarked toward Aislinn.

"Me? Not exactly. There was a certain Padawan who seemed excited about it."

"Yeah, Aislinn probably can't tell Jipoly Numifolis apart from Onila Richblum," Dominic said, taking a seat next to Rex. He obviously didn't plan on just saying 'hi.'

Rex laughed at that. He was a lot less serious now as opposed to when they were thrown in the middle of a battlefield. Which is dumb of me to think , Aislinn thought, Of course everyone would be less serious away from battle.

She sat down next to Dominic. He began chatting animatedly to Rex about the current game. At least he had a more enthusiastic game partner.

"Hey Dominic," Aislinn said after a bit of nonstop talking. "Maybe you should let them watch the game."

Dominic nodded in obedience. He was tempted to sulk, frown, or show his displeasure, but he knew better.

Rex looked over at Aislinn after this and gave her a smile that she was unable to read. It would plague her mind (the meaning) for many nights after this.

She was startled out of her thoughts to hear a voice on her comlink. "Aislinn. Obi-wan and Anakin are back from Hoth. You and your Padawan will be leaving with them tomorrow."

Craptastic chapter? I know. Still very slow? I know. HOWEVER, it's finally going to get more exciting. And I finally got out of my immense slump of writer's block. What will happen when Rex and Aislinn get trapped together somewhere on this unknown planet I haven't decided on? Dun dun duuunnn.

And bolo-ball and limmie are the same thing. It's just called limmie on Coruscant, and bolo-ball just about everywhere else where the sport actually is popular. :D
