Jason- Two more chapters to go before Christmas is here. I hope everyone will enjoy this chapter and what happens.

Ahsoka- Once again you had me captured. Cad Bane, Trandoshans, The Son, Hondo, and now these guys. What is wrong with you?

Jason- The first four I had nothing to do with that it was the people who work on the Clone Wars series. Huh, does Lux count as kidnapping Ahsoka when he knocked her out and took her to Carlac without her permission?

Ahsoka-…..I'll kick his ass.

Jason- Well you'll need to get out of the situation you're in first. Now do the disclaimer woman!

Ahsoka-….I'll kick your ass later too. Jason or AVP5 and General Herbison doesn't own anything of Star Wars, DC Universe, or Bleach just their own OC.

Jason- Enjoy the chapter everyone.

Ahsoka kicked Jason in the face knocking him out. Ahsoka put on some sunglasses and looked at the readers.

Ahsoka- Road House.

Rescue mission

The Crucible (Isamu's pov)

I was checking the damage on the ship, while the kids were with Master Huyang. I told the kids what happened to Ahsoka and who took her. Barriss cried when her mom was taken, while Liana and Jake comforted her. They were scared that their mother was going to get hurt, but the twins had to try comforting their little sister. The younglings tried to help out their friends as well, though it didn't seem to change much on how the kids were feeling.

I was sighed and looked out into space. Master Huyang had put in the coordinates to Carlac and it wasn't far from here, at least for jumping to hyperspace. However, the ship got damaged, and wouldn't be able to go to hyperspace. Even if we flew the ship towards the planet it would take too long and by then Ahsoka might get killed.

I kept thinking of ideas on what to do and how we can get to Ahsoka. So far, not many of them will work, "I should have saved her before they took her away,"

"If you did that then Senator Bonteri would have been killed," I looked over and saw what looked like was Ronin, in spirit form. He sat down next to me and sighed, "You okay kid?"

I looked at Ronin a little unsure, "Is this real or am I losing it?"

"Who knows, all I do know is Ahsoka made her choice," Ronin smiled as he looked up, "Just like I made mine huh?"

I could either ignore this or just go along with it, "Yeah, so um what do you think I should do?"

"Well," Ronin sighed and put his hands together, "What do you think you should do?"

"I don't know," I sighed, "That's why I'm asking you."

Ronin smiled and shook his head, "You don't need to ask me what you need to do Isamu. You're all grown up and you can handle this situation without me."

"That's the thing, I'm out of ideas," I could use flashstep, but my power here in this universe is weakened so I wouldn't be able to get to Ahsoka, "I kind of need your help master."

"No you don't. You have surpassed everything I have taught you Isamu and you have taught so many. You don't need me anymore you have proven you can handle anything the world or universe throws at you," Ronin got up as he continued smiling, "You can do this Isamu. You will find a way to save Ahsoka and you'll find a way to save everyone."

I looked away from Ronin and nodded. I have been through a lot of things and although I did need some help from Ronin or Hanako. I still succeeded in defeating someone and saving people. I can save Ahsoka, I just need to find something to help me get to her, and save her. But what could it be?

The door slide open and in came Master Huyang, "Is everything okay Isamu?"

I didn't look at Huyang and put my chin on my hands to think, "Not really, still trying to come up with a plan."

"We could try to contact the Jedi council to rescue Ahsoka." I shook my head.

"There isn't that many of them and I get a feeling the ones who took Ahsoka won't be alone." I knew the only way to save Ahsoka was to get to the planet, which was the hard part.

"I still don't understand why they are on Carlac. There's nothing there ever since the Forever Empire wiped the species on that planet." I then remembered something and smiled.

"Where's Barriss?" I asked.

Carlac (Ahsoka's pov)

I began to wake up as I felt my head pounding. I looked around and I found myself in a dark room. I was in a stasis field with my hands cuffed. I looked around and remembered what happened. How I surrendered to Aurra Sing and Boba Fett when they revealed they had Lux captured.

How when I got onboard their ship I felt someone hitting me from behind and blacking out. I figured it was Aurra. Now I assume I'm on Carlac probably in their interrogation room. I sighed and now needed to figure out how to get out, save Lux, and meet up with the others since I know Isamu is on his way.

As I worked on coming up with a plan the doors slide open as Aurra Sing and Boba Fett came into the room, "Well it seems our guest has woken up."

I glared at Aurra and Boba, "If it isn't tweedledum and tweedledee. I wondered when you two would show up."

Aurra had her evil smile on her face as she pressed a button, causing the cuffs to zap me. I didn't scream, but I groaned in pain as she stopped. I looked at her as she enjoyed what she did. I continued glaring at her as she approached me.

"I would watch what you say padawan…oh sorry from what I hear it's master now." Aurra laughed as she found this amusing, "How the Jedi made you a weak little Jedi into a master is beyond me. Oh yes I remember you, I remember you had your lightsaber around my neck, how you were the one who destroyed Boba's ship leaving me to die, and how you ruined my chance to kill that senator."

"Don't forget how Padme kicked your ass when she knocked you out." I remembered how when Aurra shot me in the shoulder, Padme took out her blaster that stunned Aurra, knocking her out.

Aurra pressed the button again shocking me as she let it go on for a minute before stopping, "I did warn you didn't I? Anyways be glad I didn't kill you, because now you will be used to help us."

I panted a bit and looked at Aurra, "To do what?"

"Give us the information we need to destroy the Jedi." I should have guessed that was why they took me in.

"Never." I refused to give them anything.

Boba took the button and approached me, "Tell us or else."

I still refused, "I remember you Boba. I felt bad for you because of what Master Windu did to your dad and how he put you in jail. Now I don't feel bad for you, especially since you have become nothing more than a bastard."

Boba tightened his grip on the device, "So be it."

Crucible (Normal pov)

Barriss was in the middle of the room, while her grandpa, and the others were behind her. Isamu came by and told Barriss the idea he had. How she should use the necklace Marrissa gave her that would allow Marrissa to come to Barriss's aid if she ever needs it. Of course it would be used only for in case of emergency.

Barriss was worried the necklace would not work from this far and looked back at her grandpa nervous. Isamu smiled at his granddaughter and nodded, "Go on Barriss, you can do it,"

Barriss concentrated and held the necklace in her hand. As she did the necklace began to glow as the others watched in awe at what was going on. The necklace then left Barriss's hands as it hovered in front of her. The necklace then shot off an energy blast as it opened a portal. The others watched and wondered what was going on. A pair of red eyes appeared from the portal and then a figure came out grabbing Barriss, but instead of harming her, to the other's surprise it was hugging her.

"Hello Barriss" Marrissa smiled widely, "It's good to see you again." she looked around at the others, "Who's been messing with you?"

"A mean pale skin lady took my mom and we need help to get to her." Barriss explained.

"It was Aurra Sing and someone named Boba Fett," Isamu gave Marrissa the names of the culprits.

Marrissa looked at Isamu coldly, "Do you think I care?"

The others kept quiet as they sensed some tension between Isamu and Marrissa, "Don't you? I figured you would try helping out since we put the past behind us."

"Yeah," Marrissa waved a hand idly, "Trying. So what do you need me for? Aren't you supposed to be invincible or something?"

Isamu smiled and shook his head, "I wish, but my powers here are limited. Unlike yours since I sense you're back at full power. I need help getting to Ahsoka and rescuing her."

Ganodi walked up from behind the others, "Mr. Isamu why not contact the Jedi temple to help us?"

"Because there isn't enough Jedi to help rescue Ahsoka, I have a feeling Aurra has some backup with her on Carlac." Isamu turned to Marrissa, "The ship is damaged and I need your help to get to Carlac and rescue Ahsoka."

Marrissa rolled her eyes, "Fine. But only because I'm in a good mood today."

She held her hand up and a thick fog of smoke surrounded them. A moment later the fog vanished and they were all standing on Carlac, "To quote Shakespeare 'Art thou happy?'"

Barriss looked around and cleared her throat, "Aunt Marrissa I don't think we're on Carlac." points to a tribe of Wampas eating meat as they spotted the group.

"I don't get things wrong." Marrissa wagged a finger, "Someone must have brought those beasts here. Probably a hunter or someone who wanted dumb animals to guard the area."

Isamu scratched his chin, "Maybe you're a little rusty?"

"Excuse me?" Marrissa's third eye glowed purple, "In this dimension I could kill you with one hand behind my back."

The backed away as the Wampas approached the group, while the adults bickered, "I'm just saying not being here for so long can make anyone rusty. It's okay to make mistakes, everyone does."

"I do not make mistakes." Marrissa hissed, "I am the embodiment of all the power in my family's legacy." As if to prove a point she pointed at the Wampas and all of them burst into flames.

Isamu rolled his eyes, "Look we all make mistakes okay? No one is perfect." One Wampa survived and attacked the two as Isamu and Marrissa punched it sending it flying, "I just don't see the problem of admitting it."

Liana whistled to the adults, "Hey shut up! Zatt tell us where we are?"

Zatt was a little scared to answer, but when Liana gave him a scary glare he checked his device, "Um we're on Hoth…please don't kill me."

Marrissa slowly turned to them, "I might not kill you." her eyes narrowed maliciously, "Then again I might." she conjured more black smoke and they reappeared in a new area, "Happy?"

Zatt nodded to the others they're here as Barriss approached Marrissa hugging her, "Thank you Aunt Marrissa."

"You're welcome Barriss." Marrissa smiled brightly, then she looked at the others and her smile faded, "I expect you to make sure nothing happens to her or I will show you the true meaning of pain."

The kids all nodded, except Liana and Jake who knew better not to hurt their sister. Isamu sensed where Ahsoka is and knew she wasn't far, "Want to come along Marrissa or need to head back?"

"Do I get to kill someone?" she asked innocently.

"As long as it's not in front of the kids," Isamu led the others towards where Ahsoka was being held at.

Unknown Island (Katalia's pov)

Katalia was checking for everything before the party tomorrow. She sighed in relief as she saw everything was okay and that everything was ready. As she rested on the couch Rachel came by in her blue nightgown.

"Oh hey Katalia, why are you up late? It's 2am in the morning?"

"I've been making sure everything is ready for the party." she took waved a droid over, "Tea?"

Rachel nodded as a drone came and gave the women some tea. Rachel took a sip and smiled, "It's pretty good. You made it?"

Katalia shook her head, "Mark has his own small production plant underground. He used an experimental recipe he created and it is now really delicious and also restores energy, which is good at this time in the morning."

Rachel nodded and looked around the room, which seemed familiar, "This reminds me of that room Mark was in on his massive ship years ago."

"Ah his flying fortress." Katalia leaned back in her seat, "I miss that ship. It had a really good swimming pool and private jacuzzi." she looked slyly at Rachel, "And I remember walking in on you and Mark."

Rachel nodded, "And how you thought I was trying to make a move on him, then you tried to kill me. All this while I was pregnant with Ichiro, seems like almost yesterday."

"Ah memories." Katalia smiled slightly, "To be honest I didn't even know what I was doing. I walked into Mark's room and seen you. After that my mind went into savage mood and, well you know what happened."

Rachel remembered, "Yeah, how it took almost everyone to get you away from me. Now look what happened almost 26 years later, we're friends, our kids became friends or got together with each other, and we're now related."

"If anyone had told me that all those years ago I'd have slit their throats." Katalia chuckled, "Here's hoping Marrissa doesn't get any ideas about changing that."

"I think, thanks to Barriss we won't have to worry about that. I just hope she doesn't teach Barriss some dark spells or anything." Rachel worried her granddaughter would be dark like Marrissa was.

Katalia shrugged, "I'm sure Marrissa won't do anything too extreme. She doesn't want Barriss to go through what she did."

Rachel agreed, "Like you said, here's hoping."

Carlac (Ahsoka's pov)

Aurra Sing finished shocking me as she has been doing that for the six hours. I didn't scream, I groaned in pain loudly, but I refused to scream. Boba and Aurra switched every few hours taking turns shocking me. I refused to tell them anything and I would rather die than tell them anything that could cause the death of the rest of the Jedi order.

"Tough Jedi, I would normally have gotten some scream out of the ones I have tortured in the past," Aurra approached me and lifted my chin so I could face her, "I see your time on earth has helped you huh?"

I headbutted Aurra breaking her nose, she yelped, and glared at me, "Shock me as much as you want," I panted, "but I will never talk."

Aurra went to shock me again, but Boba stopped her, "I see, well we'll have to go for something else then."

The doors slide open and in came someone wearing a Mandalorian armor uniform. I recognized the uniform and realized it was a Death Watch uniform. Two came in wearing the armor. One removed the helmet revealing to be Pre Vizsla and the other was female. I could tell by the figure and the chest area.

"Got anything out of her you two?" Aurra and Boba shook their heads.

"She's tougher than any Jedi we dealt with in the past. But don't worry we'll get answers out of her." Boba reassured Pre.

The female figure stepped forward, "You two are pathetic. It should be easy to make a Jedi talk."

Aurra took offense to the comment, "Hey watch it Bo. We're doing our best, it's not our fault the Jedi here is not from around here anymore."

Pre had a crooked smile on his face, "Oh, so this must be the Jedi you told me is from Earth now right? Ahsoka Tano, that's the name?" Aurra nodded, "Well now that's interesting. Cad Bane told us about the planet and how there's some strong people there. It's a shame some didn't come here I would love to meet them."

I scoffed, "Trust me Pre Vizsla if any of them came, especially my friends then it would be the last thing you ever want."

Pre Vizsla laughed a little, "My dear I have faced many kind of species in the past. That includes Jedi as well. Handling a bunch of super power freaks won't be any different."

I rolled my eyes, "These people you don't want to fight, in fact you should let me go Pre. Once my friends find me here they're going to kick all your asses and send you off to jail."

Pre grabbed me by my chin and tightened his grip on my chin, "My dear that will never happen. Now then enough games tell us what we need to know," Pre activated his black lightsaber as he had it near my neck, "Or this will be ugly."

I spat in his face as I wasn't scared, "I'll never talk."

Pre smiled again and snapped his fingers as Bo left the room, "I didn't say I would harm you," Bo came back with a beaten up Lux Bonteri, "I was going to say him."

"Lux" I whispered quietly.

"Ah so you know him," Pre overheard what I said, "I figured you did. Now then you will tell us what we need to know or the boy will die."

"Ahsoka don't tell them anything," Lux spoke softly as he groaned in pain, "They'll just kill us both in the end."

Bo kicked Lux in the gut as I got mad, "Leave him alone!"

Pre punched me in the gut knocking the air out of me, "I will give you fifteen minutes to tell me what I need to know or we'll come back in here. Then he will die. Oh and don't try to escape," Aurra activated something as dozens of turrets appeared from the walls with laser red dots aiming at me, "If you know what's good for you."

Pre left with Aurra, Boba, and Bo leaving me alone with Boba who looked to be passed out from the pain. I sighed as I looked up at the turrets. I knew there was no way I could get out without risking Lux's safety. I wish I could, but for the moment I had to wait till the others showed up. In the next fifteen minutes, I hope.

Meanwhile (Normal pov)

Isamu, Marrissa, and the others were over a ridge when they found the base where Ahsoka was being kept at. The kids looked surprised at how big the place was, while the adults assessed the situation. There were large walls that were protected by an electrical shield. Towers that had turrets on them, along with many armed Death Watch members, and they had with them all sorts of military vehicles that were used in the Clone Wars.

"Looks like we found the base and it looks very secured." Isamu looked around the base to get a good idea of what they were dealing with.

"It's impossible, we'll never get inside, much less get through to save Ahsoka." Katooni said knowing it was suicide to try to get through to save Ahsoka.

"We can't give up. Mom is in trouble and we have to save her." Liana refused to give up and leave her mom to die.

"Isamu sir you do have a plan right?" Petro asked.

"I always have a plan and it goes like this," Isamu explained to the kids his plan, "You nine stay here with Master Huyang, while Marrissa and I go in to save Ahsoka."

The Jedi Padawans stared at Isamu with a 'are you serious' look, "You're joking right?"

"Nope, we can't risk you kids getting hurt so you need to stay here."

"But we want to help." Barriss wanted to save her mom.

"You stay here." Marrissa pointed at the ground firmly, "If I come back and you are not here I'll be very disappointed in you."

Barriss's expression turned to sadness as Isamu comforts her, "Listen, we don't want you all to get hurt. Stay here with Master Huyang, okay?" Barriss and the others nodded as Isamu and Marrissa headed down towards some of the trees for cover, "You know she's just trying to help. If it was you she would want to save you."

"If it was me I'd already be drinking tea from the captor's skulls." Marrissa smirked coldly, "I certainly wouldn't be waiting for a bunch of children to rescue me."

Isamu smirked, "One of those children saved you from the darkness and saved your life years ago. Would you be disappointed in Barriss doing that years ago?"

"I'll admit Barriss has earned her place." Marrissa's third eye rotated to look at Isamu, "But the others have yet to prove themselves. By others I mean you and the rest of your family."

Isamu shrugged it off, "You don't think we earned our place, fine doesn't matter to us. As long as we have each other and watch each other's back that's all that matters."

"Oh I'll watch your back." Marrissa grinned creepily, "But if someone tries to shoot you I might just look somewhere else."

Isamu smiled, "That's fine," Isamu swung his swords Marrissa who was prepared to attack Isamu, but she saw Isamu stabbed a Death Watch soldier in the chest killing him, "Watch your back." Isamu continued walking.

"Oh look at me," Marrissa scoffed, "I'm a Soul Scum who thinks he's soooo powerful." she giggled at her own joke, "Ah, I wish Talon was here. She'd love messing with you."

Isamu and Marrissa made it near the wall. Isamu sighed in disappointment, "I was hoping this would be a little more challenging. Oh well, we need to distract these guys since if focus on the enemy's forces then they might take Ahsoka somewhere else."

"Or we simply kill everyone." Marrissa played with her hair, "They only have so many grunts they can use. We kill all of them and keep moving on. Eventually they'll have no-one left."

Isamu stared at Marrissa with one eyebrow raised, "Yeah, I'm trying to avoid a massive massacre where there are children watching nearby. They saw the massacre that you unleash and those kids will be traumatized for life," Isamu looked back at the facility, "Plus last time you saw a gory movie with the kids thinking it was okay for them. Poor Jake and Liana couldn't sleep for days."

"Don't even try Isamu." Marrissa growled, "When I was half their age I saw things far worse than any horror movie." she marched away at a fast pace.

Isamu appeared before her, "May I make a suggestion?" Marrissa sighed and crossed her arms, "Instead of massacring them all, why don't you lure them away from the base? That way you can lure the soldiers away from the base, the kids don't see the massacre, and there will be less soldiers to deal with to get Ahsoka."

"Are you trying to hit on me?" She asked with a bright smile.

Isamu sighed, "Cute, now know how to lure out the main army of these guys?"

"Simple." she skipped in a circle around him, "We crash a big and wrecked ship right in front of their base. They'll come running to see what they can salvage."

"And then that's when you strike. Not bad and your attitude changed quickly." Isamu didn't mind this since Marrissa was acting like his daughter Rowan.

She jumped into the air, "Yay! I get to play!"

Meanwhile (Ahsoka's pov)

Lux and I were stuck in the dark room for a while now without any of us saying a word. I didn't know what to say to Lux. It has been ten years since I last saw him. The last time I saw him was on Raxus when I went there with Padme to meet with Lux's mother Mina Bonteri. It was the first time I met a Separatist leader who wasn't evil and I was glad to have met Lux.

But when we got back to Coruscant we found out Mina was killed by Count Dooku. The news was she was killed by Republic forces, but we knew that was a lie. I never knew what happened to Lux since it wasn't long afterwards that the Forever Empire attacked. I looked at Lux and saw he has grown much since the last time I saw him. I was happy that he was okay, though I wish our meeting would be on better terms.

"It's um been a while Ahsoka, you've changed much since we last saw each other." I turned to Lux who was the first to speak.

I smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I see you've changed too. A senator huh? That's pretty cool."

Lux nodded, "Yes, I wanted to follow in my mother's footsteps. Though so far I haven't been doing well seeing as I'm captured."

I shook my head knowing that wasn't true, "I heard you saved some Jedi, Lux. That's doing pretty well if you ask me."

"Thanks Ahsoka, I did what I could to help the Jedi. Still I was hoping one of the surviving Jedi was you," I turned to Lux by what he meant, "When I heard you died I was…well sad. I'm glad you're alive."

"I'm glad you're alive too Lux. I was worried the Forever Empire got to you too," I was glad the Forever Empire didn't kill Lux. I was worried they had killed off some of the other humans like they did with Padme and the queen of Naboo.

"They almost did till the droids self-destructed. How did you get away Ahsoka?" I figured I should tell Lux the truth, though I wonder if he will believe me.

"Okay, well I met some friends who came from a different universe. In fact I'm living there now." Lux looked surprised.

"Really?" I nodded.

"In fact I'm also um…married." Lux looked even more surprised.

"What?" I sighed and decided to tell him everything.

Base (Normal pov)

Death Watch soldiers were outside training, hanging out, or having some fun shooting droids. Those who trained were getting ready for when they go to invade the Jedi temple and the Republic. They were looking forward to this mission and how they were going to take over the Republic. It wasn't Mandalore, but once they control the Republic then they will have all they need to invade Mandalore.

As they waited a large ship crashed outside the base. Many of the soldiers left the base to checked what it was. They found a large damaged transport ship. They didn't detect the ship or even saw it crashing. They approached the ship carefully and were getting ready to find what they could find to salvage.

The ship vanished right before their eyes, leaving behind a robed figure.

"Hello soon to be dead people." the figure called her hands together with joy, "I'm Marrissa."

Many of the guards exchanged looks as they raised their weapons, "Who the heck are you?"

"I'm the girl who is going to kill you." she smiled widely, "Bye bye."

She started glowing a venomous green, and then began to grow bigger. Four arms sprouted from her sides and her hair turned into eight black serpents with glowing yellow eyes. Her legs vanished and were replaced with a long serpent tail.

"Dinner time!" she flung herself at the guards

Isamu snuck away as the rest of the soldiers went to attack Marrissa. Isamu headed towards the main building where he assumes Ahsoka is. Isamu closed his eyes and could sense Ahsoka was in the building, but was in the lower levels.

"All right, so now I just need to sneak in and find Ahsoka. Sounds easy enough." Marrissa came by, cleaning her teeth, "Had a nice meal?"

"Delicious." she changed back to her usual form, "Bit chewy but not bad. I'd still like to taste Soul Reaper though." she looked at him hungrily, "One bite?"

"Sure, if you let me bite you," Marrissa moved close to Isamu till he stopped her, "Quit it, we need to get to Ahsoka…wait hold up."

Isamu moved Marrissa away as they looked over to see some Death Watch members with the kids. They were all cuffed and Master Huyang was nowhere to be found. One of the Death Watch soldiers was a woman who grabbed Barriss.

"You're coming with me little girl," Barriss was crying as the woman pulled her by her headtail as they went into one of the buildings and the guards took the kids away.

Marrissa tried to go after the woman, but Isamu stopped her, "Hold it, we need a plan."

"Let go of me Isamu." Marrissa's body was engulfed in green flames, "No-one touches her. No-one."

Isamu moved her away and slammed her to the wall, but not too hard, "Listen, didn't you see what was around their necks? I recognized those it's a bomb. If we make a move and they see us then they'll activate the bombs killing them. We need to be smart and come up with a plan."

"If anything happens to her I'll butcher everyone here." Marrissa swore, "And then I'll come after you."

Isamu nodded, "All right, try attacking those guards first quietly, and then lure the woman away from Barriss. Whatever you do with the woman is up to you, then take the kids out of here, while I go help save Ahsoka."

"You got it." Marrissa nodded, "I shall hunt these foes down and they shall feel the power of my blade coursing through their flesh as the life is drained from their bodies." she waved, "See you later."

Isamu sighed, "I wish for once she wouldn't kill someone out of anger or rage."

Unknown Island (Hanako's pov)

Byakuya, Hayami, and I made it to the island first since Ichigo went to spend some time with his family. Rukia and Kei went with him, while Retsu and her kids stay in the soul society for Hinamori to come along. We were greeted by Rachel who took me to see Katalia, while Byakuya and Hayami went to talk to Ichiro and the twins.

I arrived to the living room where I waited for Katalia to arrive. I was very impressed how big the house was and how they had so much nice things, "Sheesh all their missing now is having a huge safe filled with gold coins where you dive in like a pool,"

"It's downstairs."

I turned to see Mark enter the room. He was, as expected, dressed in a finely tailored suit and looked completely at home.

"But I personally wouldn't jump into it." he continued, "It would be very uncomfortable to jump on a pile of metal."

I nodded, "Yet apparently they make it seem like you said and dumb kids try it. Well Mark you're looking well dressed, I take it your ready for the party?"

"Of course." he smiled, "Though to be honest I'm not sure about meeting everyone. I'm pretty certain they remember my last visit."

"Everyone has forgotten about all the things you have done Mark and everyone has moved on. I know I have and I know your wife Katalia has against me too," I sat down on one of the chairs crossing one of my legs over the other, "At least you didn't pull a Hawkgirl over us."

Mark sat down in another chair, "I still remember you breaking onto my bridge. You said you were there to bring me to justice. It's funny; if Talsein hadn't turned on me then my orbital station would have ensured my victory over the heroes of this planet."

I smiled remembering what happened, "Actually we had a plan for that, but since the hollows took care of it we aboard it. Still it's a good thing we didn't catch you. If that didn't happen then your kids wouldn't be born and wouldn't have done the many good things they have done, well some of them at least. No offense."

"None taken." he leaned back in his seat and looked out the window, "It's beautiful here. Makes me wish I had done things differently in my time here. Instead of working with Talsein I could've used my abilities and my followers to help this world, rather than trying to conquer it."

"It would have been nice to have you as an ally the first time. Still I can't blame my father for wanting the world to be a better place. Every day my Soul Reapers go out to help souls move on, but the places they go for that is," I stopped and sighed sadly, "Humanity can create machines to help save the wounded and sick, build a facility to teach the future generations, and have laws to protect its citizens. Yet they have not learned to stop killing, fighting, or hurting others for their own gain."

"It is what we are." Mark shrugged, "I am a human and I know how destructive humans can be. Well I'm probably a bit of an extreme end but humans all possess a natural anger." he smiled, "But there is no point in dwelling on the bad. We must look to the good. I owe my happiness to Katalia and for that I am thankful." his smile froze, "Don't tell her I said that. She'll never let me hear the end of it."

I nodded, "Scouts honor and um mind doing me a favor?"

"Depends what it is." he raised an eyebrow, "And what might it be?"

"When my dad comes can you promise me you and him will try to get along?" I wanted my dad and Mark to be at peace since them not talking or seeing the other for seven years was getting annoying.

Mark jerked in his seat, "He's coming? I didn't invite him."

Rowan appeared from the ceiling, "Yes you did." she revealed a tape recorder and pressed play.

""Um Mr. Markoneous is it okay if Talsein can come over for the Christmas party?"

"Yes, yes that's okay."

Rowan stops playing it, "Told ya."

"I don't recall that. Wait a minute, what are you doing up there?" Mark asked suspiciously, "Were you listening in on this conversation?"

Rowan shook her head, "Noooooo," she disappeared.

I sighed, "Mark please let my dad come. I want to have him spend time with other people. Not his followers, with other people like us this Christmas."

Mark groaned and rubbed his temples, "Alright fine. He can come. But if he tries anything I want your word that you will personally make sure he is evicted before I unleash my new security on him."

"You have my word, just like you have my word my daughter will not break anything in the house." we heard a loud glass breaking, "Starting now." I took off from the room.

"Well this should certainly be interesting." Mark tapped his earpiece, "IG 102, get me a cup of tea, Earl Grey, two sugars," he relaxed in his chair, "And a dozen Custard Creams."

Carlac (Ahsoka's pov)

I finished explaining everything to Lux. At first he didn't look convinced and thought I was lying. But after I showed him my wedding ring, I saw a small look of disappointment. I felt a little bad for telling Lux I was married, but I figured he would understand. I told him about my kids and what I had gone through with my family.

I saw he wasn't sad anymore and looked happy, "Well Ahsoka, it seems you're lucky to find someone who loves you so much he would protect you even from death huh?"

I nodded, "Yes, I love him as well. It was our love that helped us get through so much and make it this far. One day I hope you find someone too."

"In truth I actually did," I looked surprised, "I met her on Onderon a year ago and well we sort of went out a couple of times."

"Sooooo you're together then?" Lux sighed and looked unsure.

"We got in a fight and I thought we would get together. But the fight left me unsure." I was confused by what Lux meant.

"What do you mean? What happened?"

Lux looked at me and shook his head a little, "I told her about you and how I missed you. She took it the wrong way and got mad at me. She thinks I love you more than her…in truth I did have a crush on you long ago."

Now this was awkward, "Wh-what?"

"I liked you Ahsoka, a lot. When I first met you, but when I heard what the Forever Empire did I was sad," Lux looked away, "I kept asking myself it was just a crush it was nothing important like love right? She told me if I ever saw you again and she was there who would I pick?"

I didn't want to get between a boyfriend and a girlfriend. Happened to me once, don't want it to happen again, "So um have you made your choice?"

Lux looked at me as I was worried he would say me, "Ahsoka I…"

Boba and Aurra came back into the room with Pre Vizsla, but without the woman with him, "Time is up little Jedi. Have you made your decision?"

I got serious and glared at Pre, "I will never tell you anything Pre. No matter what you do to me or Lux you will never succeed in your mission."

Pre sighed as he activated his dark bladed lightsaber, "Then that leaves us with one option," Pre moved his blade towards Lux's neck threatening to cut him, "Tell me what I want to know or he dies."

"Ahsoka don't tell him. This monster and his friends will destroy the Republic if you tell them anything." Boba kicked Lux in the gut knocking the air out of him.

"Tell us Jedi," Boba took out his blaster and shot Lux in the leg making him scream, "Or we'll do it this way."

I got angry and wanted to kick Boba and Pre's butts. But I couldn't do anything as long as I was stuck, "Make your choice Jedi, your friend's life, or the information."

I looked at Lux and he shook his head. He didn't want me to tell the truth. I knew that and I know that if I say anything then they'll kill us anyways. No survivors and no witnesses. There was no point in giving them anything if all they are going to do is kill us in the end.

"Go to hell." Pre turned to Aurra who shook her head.

"Very well, we'll still take out your Jedi friends the old fashion way," Pre aimed his lightsaber at me, "Say bye bye Jedi."

As Pre went to stab me the saber was blocked. I smiled and saw who it was, "Late as always Isamu."

It was Isamu as he appeared in front of me blocking Pre's lightsaber blade with his zanpakuto, "Sorry about that kid, but don't worry I'm going to make up for the loss of time by kicking these guy's butts."

Marrissa is back and caused a lot of trouble huh? It also seems that Mark is going to give Talsein a chance to show up at the party. What do you think is going to happen when these two old foes meet again? Also Isamu just saved Ahsoka and what will Lux's answer be? Think Isamu has a chance against the leader of Death Watch and the son of the bounty hunter Jango Fett?

Fine out next time to find out folks, for the next chapter is the last one as it will premier on Christmas day. Please leave some reviews, just nothing negative. If you didn't like it then don't leave a review. Also check out some of General Herbison's stories too in case many of you don't remember who the Forever Empire is and how there is less Jedi in the galaxy, plus on how Ahsoka came to the DC earth. Take care everyone and see you all next time.

General: I'll be fudged. That little brat Rowan tricked the Emperor into inviting that Soul Scum Talsein to the party.

Talon: Look at it this way boss, now you can kill him.

General: I most certainly will not. He is a guest at my master's party. I will not ruin the party just to kill a single Soul Scum

Zeliska comes in with a tray of large cookies: I made cookies for the party.

General hides behind Talon: Keep them away from me.

Talon: Um, boss?

General: The cookies are evil!

Zeliska: But I followed the instructions really carefully this time.

General takes one: Okay, I suppose as your friend I should at least try one.

The cookie sprouts tentacles and wraps around the General's head. He runs around the room yelling: GET IT OFF! GET IT OFF!

Talon: What instructions did you follow?

Zeliska: How to make facehugger cookies.

Talon facepalmed: Goodbye readers. Please review and you'll get a cookie.

General runs into a wall. The cookie breaks, and so does his nose: MY NOSE!
