Padmé and Ahsoka looked at him like he was crazy. "Didn't Palpatine, with some help from Anakin really, kill him?" Ahsoka asked. "That was the rumor, and it could be true, but they never did look for a body." Kanan said, "It's possible he could have survived the fall." "Possible, but highly unlikely." Ahsoka retorted.
Kanan covered his eyes with one hand in exasperation as he said "Now I see why Anakin sometimes called you Snips." Padmé's eyes danced with amusement as Ahsoka glared at Kanan. After a stretch of silence Luke said "It's true, Ahsoka, that it's highly unlikely that he survived the fall, but that's what they also said about Jedi after the Republic fell. I took a chance on finding Kanan and we took a chance on finding you. I know we are going to take a chance on finding Mace." Luke said as he put a hand on Kanan's shoulder, before turning towards her and continuing "The question is, will you be joining us?"
There was no reply from Ahsoka, who was still glaring at Kanan, so Luke turned to Kanan and said "Where do we start?" "That will be the fun part, Coruscant is the last place he was known to be, it's where he died. My buddy picked up info about a man with his hands having recently been severed off along with serious burns being found and taken to a hospital for treatment of his wounds. The hospital sent him off planet for him to receive treatment for his burns, for it was beyond their capability, but it doesn't say where and that's where the paper trail ends."
Ahsoka snorted, to show she had been listening to the conversation, and said "That's what you got? How do you plan on finding him, brain waves? You have nothing to go on Kanan!" "Yeah well all we had with you was that you had left the Jedi order and that you often visited Padmé of Naboo, and we found you. If you had gone to another planet we might still be looking for you, but I like to think that you and Padmé would have gotten in touch with each other and she would have led us to you." Kanan spat back.
Luke sighed and looked at his mother, whose eyes flashed with the sparkle of merriment at the two squabbling Jedi, before she turned to the two and said "I have to admit you to are a breath of fresh air compared to the way Jedi's used to be. My goodness if Master Yoda heard such tones he would be warning you two about the dark side."
That caused Ahsoka and Kanan to settle down, for though they might get on each others nerves and not agree on a lot of things, they both had respected Master Yoda and wished to honor his memory. Luke turned again to Kanan and said "So what we need is someone good with finding out information. Too bad we don't know any bounty hunters, we could just pay them to find him alive and report to us where he is."
"It's not a bad idea, putting a bounty on a Jedi's head for alive." Ahsoka said, "Aside from the fact of people sometimes not listening and killing the person anyways or someone possibly using it to find the Jedi themselves." "So does anyone know anyone we can trust to find that kind of info and tell only us?" Luke looked over in the corner and said "I think I know just the droid we are looking for."
