At the same time - planet Coruscant


Anakin Skywalwer's padawan Ahsoka Tano was working with her master on a ship he had just purchased. Well, the ship wasn't exactly new, it was quite the opposite.

The togruta swore for the umpteenth time after another hydraulic cable began to leak, projecting a jet of blackish liquid on her face:

"Grrr! Skyguy I can't understand that you bought this! It's not a fighter nor a frighter.... This is a piece of shit! Everything is rotten in there! "

At the opposite; the jedi seemed really satisfied with his recent acquisition, he kept his hand proudly resting on the silver cabin. "Snips ... It's because you don't see its potential in teh Force; you have to learn to see things like Master Yoda! "

Ahsoka frowned skeptically : "Like Master Yoda Really ? Suckered you were; A bunch of shit you bought! "

She threw the tool in her hand into one of the crates and went away angry.

"You let me down with all these rep... repairs...".

The Jedi was still talking to the teenager, but something disturbed him. He felt a surge in the force of exceptional power, the wave vanished as quickly as it had come. Beside him, his padawan remained standing completely seized. He touched her shoulder.

"Snips? You're okay ?

She suddenly comes to herself: "I don't know Master, something happened by The Force, like a tidal wave, I have never felt such power "

"I felt it too, don't worry ..."

"No, the strangest thing was that I felt like I found something familiar again, something I had forgotten, something that I know."

Ahsoka seemed genuinely confused by what was going on, she knew that Anakin was still an apprentice and that he couldn't answer her questions. She spoke to him while her gaze was completely absent: "Master, I'm sorry but I must speak with Master Yoda, he must know what it is".

Anakin looked at the cabin of his shinning flying trash can regretfully, "ok, I get it, beside it won't get very far without a hyperdrive anyway."

"At the junkyard, that would be the ideal destination!"

She left quickly without waiting for his response. Anakin may have taught her her first mechanical skills, but she had concentrated on learning more whenever she had the opportunity to share a moment with the mechanical maintenance clones. She was better at mechanics than he was and she knew that her Master, out of pride and stubbornness, would never agree to admit that he had been tricked by that Twilek merchant. She shook her head and then picked up speed as she entered in the temple.

She found the old Jedi in the meditation room. She had barely crossed the threshold when he spoke: "Disturbed you are, powerful was this manifestation of the Force ..."

She walked over to him and sat down on the floor in the usual meditation posture.

"Master Yoda, I felt it, like it was something familiar to me, that I had forgotten"

"Strange indeed, the force has never conveyed such energy"

"It can't be a Sith ..." she said worriedly.

"Puzzled, I too am on it's nature"

"Master, I did not feel any danger or threat ... only a familiar feeling"

" Only; time will really tell "

The young togruta stood up with a sigh, she was impatient by nature, but she had to wait to understand where this power came from and why it seemed so familiar to her.
