Ahsoka I: When everything changed

11

I heard R2 make noises so I followed his gaze. He was looking at the city, so was I. I wish I hadn't looked, the city was under attack. I saw a lot of droids and troopers enter the city. That was bad, but what's worse was that they destroyed everything that was in their way, so basically everything they saw. 'Quick, we need to do something!' I said.

Azreal ran towards the door. 'Wait!' I stopped him. 'We need to make a plan, unless you want to get yourself killed of course.'

'Yeah that wasn't my intention.' Azreal said. 'So do you have any ideas?'

I noticed that Azreal was trying to hide that he felt stupid about his recklessness, I ignored it because I had other things to do. 'What about a surprise attack?' I said. 'If we attack little groups and not all droids and troopers at once, we might actually have a chance.'
'That's a good idea!' Lux said, joining the conversation.

I checked my Lightsabers and walked to the door, together with Lux and Azreal. When we saw the first group of troopers, I used the Force and hit one with a stone. He didn't notice that it was me, so instead he blamed the others and got mad. They started a discussion, which was the perfect distraction. We killed them all.

I felt really bad about it, had I really become an assassin? No, I said to myself. If I hadn't killed them, they would've killed us or innocent people.

We tried the same strategy with the next group, to my surprise it worked. They're so stupid, I thought when all of a sudden I heard the sounds of blasters. I looked up and didn't see one, but three separatist cruisers. 'They really want this planet.' I whispered annoyed.

'We can't do anything, there are to many of them!' Azreal said. He turned around and started to walk back to the ship. 'Wait! Where do you think you're going?'

'To the ship, to another planet, away from here, whatever you want to call it, I'm not staying here.' he said.
'But all of those people will die! We can at least try to prevent that!' I yelled. 'Ahsoka, I know you want to help them, so do I, but we can't do anything. Let's assume we would be stronger, what do you think will happen after our siege? Right, they'll kill us. I am willing to die for what I believe in, but I don't believe in this. I'm sorry, but it's over for me, I'm leaving.'
And with that said he entered the ship.

I knew he was right, but I didn't want to admit it, not to myself, not to Azreal and definitely not to Lux.

'Ahsoka, he's right.' Lux said. 'I know.' I said with a sigh. 'But I don't want him to be.'
Lux took my hand and took me to the ship. I sat on a chair, refusing to believe what we were about to do, but when we entered hyperspace, I knew it was too late.

Azreal landed the ship on Dagobah, just like me he knew that it was a perfect planet to do Jedi training. The planet itself is one big swamp with huge trees, which makes it the perfect hiding spot. Nobody will go there for fun and even if they did then they wouldn't see us from the sky.

I activated my Lightsabers and gave one to Azreal. 'Here, you can use mine for training.' I said. 'Thank you.' he answered.

I taught Azreal the base of fighting with a Lightsaber. How to block, reflect blasters bolts and how to attack without putting yourself in too much danger. But to be honest, if you needed a Lightsaber to defend yourself or attack, it was always dangerous.

'Wait, stop!' I said. 'Why? What's wrong?' Azreal asked worried. 'I think I feel something, with the Force. It's someone, there's someone else here, but I don't know where. This person is strong with the Force.'

That was the last time I felt the presence of this unknown Force user. I decided to not pay attention to it.

Azreal and I trained for a week and did some battles. I tried to do it the easy way, but Azreal needed more training. Although he did have great potential, maybe he'll be a great padawan one day.
