Ahsoka I: When everything changed

7

I killed them, I killed them all, all of the troopers. I had changed a lot because I never thought I'd do something like that, but I did.

The next thing was freeing the ship and it looked like I was going to have to do that on my own. I tightened my grip on my Lightsabers and cut some things, I don't know what they were exactly, but the ship was free. Unfortunately for me the ship left without me on it. That's what I call bad luck.

I decided to move farther than my current position and went further inside the cruiser. I was looking for a ship, which shouldn't have to cause a lot of trouble, but knowing me it obviously did. I had the advantage of being a Jedi though.

By trouble I meant that the minute I entered the control room, I had to face a lot of troopers. I'm not quite sure, but I think I'm turning into a monster, just like my master, former master.

I activated my Lightsabers again and began deflecting blaster bolts. I could alter the course of impact so they hit the troopers instead of me. The last one realised that it was no use shooting at me so he ran towards me, his mistake. I cut him in two perfectly equal pieces.

I went to a control panel and started hacking the system, it shouldn't have taken me a lot of time, but it did. Something was different about this cruiser. I decided not to bother about that and continue hacking the system. Once I got through the security system I could finally look for the hangar. I only just realised that I could've searched for it myself, but I think this was easier if I didn't want to get a lot of attention. Although I think I failed miserably at that already.

I memorized the way to the hangar and began following it. It wasn't very close so eventually I was happy that I looked it up.

I didn't come across any trouble on my way to the hangar, which was a big relief. In the hangar however there were a lot of trouble. To be honest I didn't expect to see anything else.

Just like the first time they started firing at me, to my not so big surprise I used the same tactic and started deflecting the bolts with my Lightsabers until all of them were dead, I really was a monster.

I have to admit that deep down inside me there was a part that enjoyed watching them fall and die, very deep inside of me. But just as soon as that side of me came, it disappeared because I suppressed it.

The next thing I saw was probably the reason why I went all Dark Side for a moment. To call it my biggest fear would be like calling a Rancor a puppy.

Technically it wasn't an "it" but a "he", although that didn't make a lot of difference to me anymore. It's not hard to guess who was standing in front of me, Anakin Skywalker, my former master.

'Ahsoka, join me!' sounded his voice. It brought memories back to me, memories of times that everything was still good, when everything was perfect. But also memories of pain, betrayal and hate.

'No! As long as I live I will do anything in my power to destroy the Sith, not join them!' I said firmly.

Anakin made a weird sound which was somewhere in between a laugh and him choking.

'You've killed so many of my troopers, you would make great assassin you know that right? In fact, you already are. You aren't replaceable.'

'I am not an assassin! I've done what was necessary, I didn't do it for fun or anything else. I would never kill anyone if it wasn't absolutely necessary!' I said, starting to become a little bit angry.

'Ahsoka, you're perfect for this. In fact, I already have a Sith name for you, it took me a while, but how about "Darth Snips"? You could join me you know, yes I'm a Sith, but that doesn't mean that I'm a bad person.'
