"What did you just say?" Rex asked in a shock tone.

"Lets not talk here. Lets go inside and sit down and first found out what happened first," Ines said tapping Rex shoulder.

Nodding and agreeing with her, they all went inside, where Din was sitting by the table talking to Noah and Aurea. The moment the others entered with a serious look, Aurea stood up.

"I know you well enough to understand that something bad happened, just by looking at your faces." she replied.

"Yes Aurea, we don't have good news." Ahsoka replied sitting down.

"What happened?" Din asked.

"Kamino capital, Tipoca City was destroyed," Bo told everyone.

Aurea gasped and had tears in her eyes, having Noah wrapping his arms around her shoulders.

"What do you mean? How?" Noah asked.

"Maybe we need to see the news first to have an idea about it," Ines explained and as they all sit down, Ines pressed the table and they heard the sound of breaking news, and they could see a middle age man, while below him in big red letters, the word "BREAKING NEWS" was flashing.

"Lets heard what they are saying," Ahsoka suggested and they all stayed in silence hearing him.

"Good morning Coruscant. We started this morning with some disturbing Breaking News that reached the studio in the early hours and we are on top of that, trying to get more information about what happened to Tipoca City, the Capital of Kamino, that according to the lately reports it was totally destroyed. So far we don't know the amount of victims or if there are any survivors. If the Prime Minister Lama Su survived this attack. We are trying to find out more about it. But what we got so far, was that whole Capital was totally destroyed. We still don't know who did this and reasons behind this attack.

For those who are not aware, Tipoca City and its planet Kamino was the home planet of the Clones that for many years fought the Clone Wars against the Separatist during the Old Republic. After the Rise of the Empire, the Clones were replace by the Storm Troopers program by the Emperor Palpatine, and Kamino stop the Clone program.

Was this attack something relate to those times? We don't know.

If there is more information about this attack we will get back to it. Now the weather news..."

Ines turn off the sound of the table and putting on top of the table, she looked to Rex who stood up and was walking back and forth.

"So they don't still don't have any clew who did this yet? Which means Thrawn didn't reveal himself so far," Ahsoka said.

"Are you sure it was him?" Aurea asked her.

"Yes it was him," Luke replied right away before Ahsoka could even replied. "Someone had to send the news about it had to get there."

"But why Kamino?" Noah asked, making everyone looked at each other.

That was the question that everyone was also wondering.

"Do you think that is something to do with the Clones or try to stop Kamino to continue to use that technology. After all they are the top of the top in that subject," Bo said.

"It is a possibility, but why?" Ines asked looking at her.

"He is going to pay for that. I can guarantee you." Rex said tapping his hands on the table. "He messed with the wrong people."

"Rex, we need to find out first the motives. Until we had more answers, we better act carefully," Ahsoka told him, but deep inside she felt sorry for her friend.
