When the ship lands on the planet, Sereeno, they immediately get off and sneak into the Dooku's palace. Once they get inside Plo tells them that they'll split up to look for him.
They nod and Yoda says "may the force be with us." The moved throughout the castle, destroying any droids that came across their way. They finally came to the main room of the castle, where Ahsoka could sense a dark and cold presence inside.
Ahsoka then unlocks the door and enters the room. She sees him staring out of a window, overlooking a battle in the courtyard of the clones shooting at the droids. "What a waste," Dooku said, sensing her presence. "To have all I worked for, gone like that. By a foolish girl, no less."
Ahsoka glares at him and doesn't say a word, she knew that he wanted her to get angry so she takes a deep breathe and let's go of her annoyance, Dooku sighed and turned around, lightsaber in hand and activated it.
"Your swords please," Dooku said. "Let's not make this more unnecesary than it already is. Ahsoka responded by igniting his lightsaber and glaring daggers at the old man, readying herself for battle.
Dooku sighed and then sprung into action, he jumped into the air and brought his lightsaber down on Ahsoka. Ahsoka parried his attack and the duel began, they moved throughout the room, Dooku pressing the attack while Ahsoka went on the defense.
Dooku fired lightning at her but what surprised him was that the togruta caught it. Just like Master Yoda, it swirled in her hand and she fired it right back at Dooku. He was just able to get his lightsaber up to block it in time, Ahsoka smirked at his shocked face.
"My turn," Ahsoka said and unleashed a flurry of lightsaber attacks.
She channeled the force, making her more fluid and strong and Dooku just couldn't keep up. She was able to get in numerous shots to his body, cutting him along the legs and arms. He started to falter, stepping back in pain. In a last ditch effort, he threw his lightsaber at Ahsoka's leg.
Ahsoka was not expecting this and the lightsaber imbedded itself into her leg. Ahsoka screamed in pain and fell to the ground. Dooku laughed as Ahsoka hissed in pain. He called back his lightsaber and walked over to the young Togruta.
"You see, the Jedi have abandoned and betrayed you again." Dooku said, raising his lightsaber but just then, there was the sound of 4 igniting lightsabers. Ahsoka and Dooku looked to the door and saw Anakin, Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Plo Koon standing near the entrance of the door.
"Not this time, my old apprentice." Yoda said.
Anakin and Yoda engaged Dooku while Plo and Obi-Wan went to check on Ahsoka. She was fighting back tears and hissed in pain while both of them tried to stop the bleeding.Ahsoka heard a sickening thud over where the duel was happening and she looked over to see Anakin's lightsaber through Dooku's chest. Yoda deactivated his lightsaber as Dooku's body fell to the ground, limp.
"Failed you, my old apprentice," Yoda said. "Over the war is. Peace, we may have again." Plo then rips off a piece of his robe and wraps it around her leg to stop the bleeding, he ties it around her leg, lifts her up, and runs out of the base with others close behind.
When they get back to the resolute and the medics start stitching her up, after they were done they give her some crutches to help her walk but tell her that she has to take it easy for the next 3 days.
Ahsoka sighs and reluctantly agrees , she then feels the ship jump into hyperspace so she lays down and decides to rest. When she wakes up she feels someone nudging her, it was Obi Wan. He tells her that they've arrived on Courasant so Ahsoka asks him to hand her, her crutches.
Obi Wan nods gives them to her and they both walk out, when they get outside they see the council and Tarkin waiting for them. They all head over to them and Yoda says "over the war is, but much more to talk about there is, Knight Tano, come to the Council chambers you will, confront this fear of yours we must."
All of the council members and Anakin look at her concerned while Windu just glares at her and Ahsoka puts her head down, Yoda then walks away with the rest of the council, Anakin, and Ahsoka following.
Ahsoka knew that she now had to face her fear head on, no matter how much she didn't want to she had to tell the council about how she felt. She just hoped that they would understand.
