Before I start off I would just like to say, HAPPY CANADA DAY! :D oh wait, most of you guys are from US, ok, think, ummmm, ok its like the Canadian 4thof July! Get it. Got it. Good! Ok, hope you like my chapter, and YAY my B-day is this Sunday! :)
Aksoka and the others made their way back to the ship, and in the distance they saw Rex and a few other clones, running towards them.
"Must be important if it makes Rex run!" Zatt whispered to Marah, making them both chuckle.
"What is it Rex?" Ahsoka called as the jogged up to them, Rex holing something in his hand, and out of breath from running through the hot and dry rounds of Lothal. "Did you find something?"
"Commander, I think your going to find this interesting." Said one of the clones behind Rex.
"Well" said Ahsoka, "I must warn you, it will be difficult to surprise me after what I just experienced in there."
Rex and the other clones behind him look confused, but decided to handle one task at a time. "Quick, let us get in the ship, we found a data pad, the information is, confusing?" Said another clone.
"Very well" said Ahsoka as they made their way into the ship. "Chopper, you come too, you are closest to the crew, perhaps you could help explain whatever we find."
Once in, Rex inserted the disk, and the holo screen came up.
"You see" said Rex, "It says here that they have mapped out the rout of the building perfectly, they knew the only way out off by heart. They must have been waiting, but here's the ingesting part, they thought that there were, kyber crystal creates in there, on the twelfth floor. Someone tipped them off wrong information, they did send their mission to us, but, as we all know, by the time we got it, it was already too late."
"Who would tip them off like that?" questioned a clone.
"Do you think it could have been someone in the cell?" called another.
"Everyone relax." Said Ahsoka. "Now, we do have strong reason to believe that the one who gave the Ghost crew faulty intel was someone in their crew."
The room erupted into whispers. "I bet it was the Lasat." One whispered to another.
"No, no, he was a honor guard, would never work for the empire, I bet it was that mando girl!"
"Yea," whispered another, "She has worked for the empire before, maybe she never really left?"
"No, what about the Jedi guy?"
"Enough!" called Ahsoka, sending the curious whispers to a stop. "No one jump to conclusions or make any rash actions. We have reason to believe that the one who tipped off the empire is, Ezra Bridger, the young padawan on the Ghost crew." But before she could finish, she was once again, interrupted, but not by whispers, but to people shouting out.
"The kid did this?" One yelled out.
"Your saying that a child tipped off the empire?"
"What's a kid even doing in all this?"
"Good point, who brings a child to war?"
"Is he a sith?"
"Yea! The kids eyes are blue, too blue, I bet there contacts to hid the yellow!"
"Is he armed?"
"He has a lightsaber! If that's not armed I don't know what is!"
One by one the clones, piolets, humans, all argued with one another, and voiced their concerns. Well, more liked yelled their concerns, talking over one another. Chaos.
"ENOUGH!" Ahsoka screamed, sending all eyes back on her. "Listen to me. I am choosing to give the padawan the benefit of the doubt. I have met and monitored the young one, and he is no sith. But the force is strong with him. Very strong. Strong enough for the empire to want him, not just to exsiccate like all other Jedi, but to use as weapon of the empire. Even if he has gone to the dark side, which I strongly disagree with the thought, but if he did, it would not be of his own choosing. We are all fighting the same battle here, the same enemy. So don't forget that. Not now. You can spread all the rumors, and doubt all you want, but not. Now. Now we must work together to save the Ghost crew. To save our people. Sith or no sith. Understood.?"
"Understood," some of them mumbled.
"I said, Understood?!" Ahsoka said, eyeing everyone in the room.
"Understood Commander Tano!" they all said, straining up.
"Good." She said "Because I think I might just have a way to find them."
