A Jeweled Rose In Clone Wars

Part 15

Ruby was watching overhead a deal relating to shipments of something being delivered to Mandalore, but according to what she found there was no information on it. She remembered earlier today about the speech that the Dutches have about finding out who was behind everything. Since Ruby was at the right place at the right time for the school attack because she was saving children which people like to give the most respect to. So people welcomed her with open arms when the Duchess said that Ruby, or how the people know her as Detective Rose, will investigate on this matter. She snapped back to reality remembering that she had a job to do, and she hoped that she would let her babies do the talking (babies as in her scythe and lightsaber). She knew that the Mandalorians were pacifists, but she thought of weapons more for protecting innocents than hurting them.

She was given an outfit that had a tight suit under black and red armor and she also wore a black cape with red on the inside of it. She also has roses engraved into the plating because the Duchess insisted that it would make her look less scary in the public eye, but she still kept her get with her pouches and mother's rise pin. Just then she spotted something while the deal was being made. 'Poison?' she thought to herself. She snuck into one of the crates housing the chemical and took it placing it in a bag. She knew that the people selling the poison were members of the Black Sun, but she needed to know what the poison was before taking drastic measures.

(THE NEXT DAY, AT A LAB)

Ruby gave the poison to a professor, and to the Duchess's relief, it wasn't deadly. However, to Ruby this was horrifying. "They want to poison everyone," Ruby said, "Or as many people as they can. If they used a non-lethal poison they could affect more people and they could use a lethal poison," Ruby said, "Making people think you are spending all your resources on catching the criminals instead of keeping supplies in stable conditions."

"They want people to believe that I am a fool," Satine said as it dawned on her. 

"Exactly," Ruby said, "But the thing is we also know it can't be spread through the air now. That means we could confiscate it all without ending up harming many people."

"Then we must do that at once," Satine said.

 (AT THE DOCKING BAY)

Ruby had to go somewhere else because of some other report of undocumented shipments, leaving Satine and her guards to do it. The supply boxes lay there unguarded, and something wasn't right. They opened the crates to find food and medical supplies, it was a set-up. They saw the Death Watch swarming around them from all sides, and Satine was captured.

The Death Watch had orchestrated a terrorist attack on a different part of Mandalore and left crates full of food and medical supplies to make it seem like Satine was hoarding everything for herself. They delivered a speech in how the Duchess was secretly corrupt and to the Duchess's horror Detective Rose had been murdered by Satine herself because Ruby found out the truth and was trying to "put the Duchess to justice." Satine knew they couldn't easily tarnish the young Jedi's reputation because of what she did before, but it was also a way of making it look like the ruler of Mandalore was a no-good backstabber. They also had to make it look like it was Satine's fault that a Jedi died because that could be considered an attack on the Republic.

She was sent to jail for her crimes against the people, but this was the Death Watch's plan for power all along. She was left in a cell that was right next to the former prime minister, so who was arrested for corruption. She watched as Darth Maul break the former prime minister out to be no more than a puppet. What happened next shocked her nephew and her sister Bo-Katan came to rescue her, and it was because Maul was now the Mandalore.

Everything goes the same as it does in the series, and Satine was unable to tell that there is, or was, another Jedi here because that will make things too easy. Now Obi-Wan is on Mandalore and is on his way to rescue Satine. when he got there They sneakily left the prison, and when they got out, the Duchess talked to the Jedi Master.
