"Why are we heading back for the monastery?" Ahsoka asked, tightening her grasp around Roxy's neck as they flew above Rex and Obi-Wan. "I felt a strong presence. It must have been the Father. He may be able to help us get Anakin back on our side."

"Do you think he'll be okay?" Ahsoka asked worriedly, Roxy looking down and biting her lip, unable to ask the question. She didn't to get Ahsoka's hopes up too high, but she knew that Anakin was strong. They all were strong in her eyes. She's seen their bravery, their devotion. But even qualities like those could be corrupted. Not permanently, but it will happen.

Roxy brought herself back to the present when she saw the monastery just ahead. "Rex, we're almost there. Follow me."

: Copy tha-WATCH OUT!: Roxy heard Rex say as Ahsoka looked back and saw the Son, in his beast form, fly in behind them and attempted to claw at them both. "Roxy! Look out!"

Roxy moved out of the way of the claw, resulting in her losing balance and free falling through the air. "Hold on, Ahsoka! We're crash landing!"

"Okay!" Ahsoka tightened her grip once more around Roxy's neck, watching as the ground got closer and closer till Roxy went face first into the ground, losing her grip almost immediately and went rolling along the dirt.

"Roxy!" Ahsoka called when coming to a stop before climbing to her feet and running a few more yards where she saw Roxy sitting up, groaning loudly. "Ooo..yep, I felt that. Mm-hmm!"

"How are you not dead?" Ahsoka asked, Roxy jumping to her feet and immediately yelping as she felt pops run throughout her entire body. "I never heard my body pop that many times at once..woah...um, I'm not even sure. I just..am."

"Oh..kay. We better find Rex and Master Kenobi and get to the monastery." Ahsoka said as Roxy nodded, looking towards the large palace dead ahead. "My guess is they're probably there already."

"Actually, we aren't.." The two looked to see Obi-Wan and Rex behind them getting off the speeder. "Are you okay?" Rex asked as Roxy nodded, smiling at him. "I'm alright."

"How about you, Commander?" Rex asked as Ahsoka crossed her arms, smirking at him. "Hey, I still got my 9 lives, Rex.."

"Well, we're glad that you two are alright, but now we need to get to the Father before the Son does." Obi-Wan reminded while Roxy and Ahsoka looked to each other. "Ready for round two?"

"Yeah, just don't crash land next time."

----

"There he is!" Ahsoka pointed to where she saw Anakin and the Father sitting down talking to each other. As soon as Roxy landed, Ahsoka walked over to Anakin, checking to make sure he was alright. "What happened?"

"My son disobeyed the laws of time by showing you a potential future." The Father explained as Anakin got up to his feet while Ahsoka and Roxy stood beside him. "I don't remember."

"I had to erase that memory from your mind. It wasn't suppose to be seen." The Father explained as Ahsoka and Roxy rose an eyebrow at each other. "We want to help you take down your Son. You can't do this alone."

"No. You can't. My son is too powerful for you. I must face him alone." The Father began while Roxy furrowed her eyebrows. "Isn't this sweet?"
