„SkyGuy wake up." Ahsoka called in his ears.

„Let me sleep." he replied and turned around.

Then he heard her coughing and was instantly awake.

She sat in front of his small tent and looked ill.

Her face was a pale orange, and her eyes underlined by a blue line.

"Snips, what happened?" he wanted to know.

"Was trying to catch breakfast. Lost my spear. Can't stand up without it. And my ankle hurts." she said, and pointed at the ankle of her once healthy leg.

She must have fallen or something when she lost the spear.

Without hesitation Anakin stood up, and helped Ahsoka to do the same.

"Where?" he asked. Ahsoka pointed at the middle of the river.

The spear was long gone by this time.

"I'll get you a new one" he promised.

Then he helped her sit again, on a better place, than she sat before.

To find a new stick for her to make a spear out, wasn't that hard.

It was pretty easy. A few minutes later Ahsoka was carving the stick, and even if she still looked ill, she seemed to be more confident.

"So what's up today?" Obi-Wan asked when he crawled out his tent.

"Weapons" Ahsoka told them "If we want to survive we'll need weapons"

Anakin sighed, visible confused.

"You won't tell us why we couldn't just use our lightsabers, would you?"

Ahsoka watched his face, when his confusion switched with an annoyed look.

"You really didn't feel it, do you?" she asked.

"No. What should I feel?" Anakin wanted to know.

"Every time I take my lightsaber, and try to ignite it, I feel a huge warning in the force. So I looked out, what could have caused that. And I'm pretty sure, that its because of the atmosphere."

"I felt the warning too" Obi-Wan said. "But what's about the atmosphere?"

Ahsoka grinned, than she picked up a leave, and showed them.

"This leave is the leaf of a Shonsha tree. To grow, they need a gas. The same gas lightsabers and blasters use."

Anakins eyes widened in shock. "So if we ignite the sabers, or Rex shoots his blaster... everything will be burned"

"Our weapons don't have enough energy to burn down the whole planet, but it definitely would be enough to kill all of us" Ahsoka replied.
