Ahsoka's POV
"On your knees!" A red Mandalorian demanded. He and many others just like him surrounded us.
"Get down!" A second Mando ordered as he shoved me to the floor. When I got up, he had his gun aimed at my head. "On your knees!" I slowly knelt before him with my hands on my head. The others followed suit.
"That's more like it." A third Mando commented. "Our boss should be here any minute now." Suddenly, the door burst open. I held my breath and closed my eyes as I waited for Palpatine to make his grand entrance, for his sadistic laugh to resonate throughout the entire room. Moments later, I heard loud footsteps and blaster fire, but no lightsaber noises. I opened my eyes, expecting to see Palpatine's intimidating figure, but I couldn't see through all that mist.
"I don't think you want to do that." A familiar voice warned. I heaved a sigh of relief.
"Fire!" The first Mando shouted. All of the Mandalorians started shooting at the newcomers, but they fell back once the newcomers revealed themselves.
"Wimps." Will, Anakin's friend, rolled his eyes.
"Excuse moi?" Mia's face appeared from behind Will's large and lanky body.
"It's you again." The first Mando said with disgust. "Fire!" Suddenly, the only sounds I could hear were frantic screams and blaster fire.
"Get down!" Obi Wan lunged towards me as the Mandos were shooting at us.
"I have to find Kihara!" I shouted over all the ruckus as I got to my feet.
"You have to find WHO?!"
"Sorry!" I replied as I went to find Kihara. In order to reach Kihara, I had to duck under red blaster fire and leap over heaps of cowering bodies. By the time I reached Kihara, she was about to leave.
"Ahsoka! I'm sorry I lost the chips! I was so irresponsible! Please, forgive me!" Kihara begged.
"Kihara! Don't worry! I'll get them back, I promise!" I reassured. Before I could say anything more, Kihara sprinted out of the room. "Kihara! Wait up! Where are you going?"
I followed Kihara outside and saw her get on a ship. Without much thought, I Force jumped and landed on the ship.
"Ahsoka!" I heard Obi Wan call. Almost immediately, he appeared right beside me.
"Obi Wan! Help me find Kihara!" I requested.
"That's why I'm here. Now, we just gotta get inside the ship." Obi Wan got out his lightsaber and cut a hole inside the ship. We slipped inside. I felt a chill down my spine.
We observed the interior of ship. Except for a knocked out Kihara, there wasn't anything suspicious. We eventually reached the cockpit, where we saw Palpatine wearing a black cloak and...oh, God forbid...
"Is that...who I think it is?" I asked.

But there are some weird things there. Who's with Palpatine? Why is there a knocked out Kihara? And where are they headed to?
