When I woke up, I saw Rex with some armor in his hands. I smiled. He never let me down. I slowly started to get up and he helped me.

"I heard you took a fall."

"I don't know. I can't remember. All I remember is the despair."

"We need to go if we are going to go. There is a shift change approaching." He informed me.

I nodded and took up the armor. The helmet didn't really fit, and the whole breast scenario didn't work out too well either.

"Let's go." I finally announced after squeezing into the armor as best as possible.

Rex nodded and we began our journey to the Temple. Faven and Mika followed behind, they would come in when we cleared it.

Reaching the Temple steps brought me a new wave of depression. On the steps, boot imprints marked the march of the brainwashed clones. I managed to withhold a tear from my eye and keep moving.

Finally, we got up the steps and to the door. Two guards were positioned there. I pushed them against a wall using the Force in order to allow Mika and Faven to take their armor.

When we were ready, we opened the doors. I suddenly remembered the day when I left the order, in memory of Ahsoka. My heart broke further and my skin crawled.

There were clones stationed throughout the Temple and none questioned why we were there, because of the shift change. We headed to the Library in order to recover the footage of the Temple. There, I saw Anakin himself slaughtering younglings.

I fell to my knees and sobbed. Everyone was dumbfounded.

Suddenly, I felt a change in the Force.

"Andora!" I heard a deep voice shout.

I looked at Faven with pained eyes. I knew that voice. Its betrayal was familiar. It was Anakin.
