You walked into what appeared to be the briefing/meeting room of the base. There was a large table similar to that in the war room of the Jedi Temple. '(y/n)! Don't think back to that place.' You approached the table, standing next to Bo as you all waited for the clan leaders to come in. You noticed that each clan only had around four to five members wearing their clans armor. So they must still be in somewhat of a transition faze.

"What's your problem today auntie?" You quietly questioned.

"There is just...so much shit going on with Mandalore that we need to discuss. And now that you're here, we have to assign you as the house leader and it's just...too time consuming. Why couldn't you just stay?" Bo groaned in response. She seemed really out of it. She had passed the point of frustration where it just turned into sadness.

"We don't have to do all of that now. I'm sure we can all wait till all of this Maul business is over. That's what's most important here." You firmly told her.

"You sure about that?" She tiredly asked shooting you a content glance.

"Yeah I'm sure. I don't like seeing you all stressed out." you told her.

"Thank you." She whispered quietly to you. You changed your gaze from your aunt on your left, to the beautiful Togruta on your right. Your fingers were intertwined together and you never wanted to let go of her again.

"I see you've got a new outfit as well." you told her.

"Yeah, do you like it?"

"Love it. You look a hundred times better that when I saw you last. When you were wearing cheap cloth, all covered in dirt and bruises. It broke my heart." you admit, gripping her hand tighter.

"Don't worry. I'm all good now. Especially now I'm back with you." Ahsoka gently says as she rests her head on your shoulder.

"Love you."

"Love you too." you both whispered because the meeting was about to start.

"Alright Everyone. Our main objective at the moment is to train and organize our siege. We know that Almec is the acting prime minister under the control of Maul. But we have conformation that Maul is indeed not on Mandalore. I think it would be obvious to attack Mandalore when we know Maul is there." Bo announced, planting two fists on the edge of the round table.

"Then where could he be?" A leader asked.

"I saw him around two days ago. He was talking with the Pykes on Oba Diah via a hologram. All I heard him say was that 'he has, things to attend to.' That is the last known activity we have of him. I was also able to steal some transmission codes, which will help track down Mauls recent locations." Ahsoka spoke up.

"Our spies will know the instant the Maul arrives on Mandalore. When we know he is there, we should attack immediately." Ursa boomed into the room. There were a few murmurs in agreement.

"So what do we do until then?" you asked.

"We train. We prepare. We be ready to fight...But..."

"But?" you questioned Bo's sudden loss of confidence.

"We need to find more soldiers. We simply wouldn't be able to hold onto a siege for very long with our numbers." Bo explains.

"Then...where do we plan on obtaining more soldiers?" you asked with confusion as they haven't sorted this out yet.

"We could use republic forces." Ahsoka suggests.

"Ahsoka, No." Both you and Bo say to her with a critical tone.
