The Final LinE
~~~~
Something wasn't right about Anakin, ahsoka could feel it. As she walked away from Anakin, now ready for her first mission as a knight, something was bothering him.
But right now she had to go inform her troops about the mission. Anakin was always worring about something.
~~~~
*on the 'Interrim' en route tounknown planet*
Ahoka sat quietly in the hangar watching as troopers moved back and forth. They told her that a an informant found a small droid factory on some unnamed planet, out in the far reaches of the outer rim.
Ahoska meditated on the fact that had alot more troopers than nessary to take out 1 small factory. She sat there listening to the general murmur of the clones.
She smiled as she remembered Rex, the now Commander of the 501st, still serving under her former master. He would of liked to sit with her now discussing how stupid this mission is and how much of a waste this mission would be.
But Rex was not with her and all of these troopers are new to her so it would take some time for them to warm up to her.
Ahsoka got out the small mirrior she now carried so she could see how her marking were changing. She blamed it on growing into a full grown Togruta, but ahsoka knew that wasn't true.
When every Togruta is carring a kid her markings change and become duller so she naturally would not be seen as easly in the thick grass and trees of Shili. Ahsoka was also glad Shakk-Ti had not been asigned to go with her because that where she learned of this. She also was still skinny, but she had filled out over the last year or so.
Suddenly the green painted Commander named Rusher jerked abit when his commlink suddnly went off. He deattached it from his belt and strided off in to a hallway.
Ahsoka closed her eyes and started to meditate. Feeling the force flow about in its calm way..
Suddenly Ahsoka fell to the floor from the crate she was sitting on. Death had erupted in to the force like a wave. Clones and jedi alike were dieing all in such a short time it almost hurt.
Then ahsoka blues eyes snapped up and the troopers in the hanger put on their helmets and walked over to her as she stood up, Commander Rusher in the lead.
And he looked absolutly enraged and it was directed at her. he flipped out her DC-15S and it came to life pointed at her face. "You know what to do boys." His men started to fire.
She flipped over their head and ran. She kept running untill she was at the command center. She came in quietly and looked out the glass, there was not planet in the view. One of the deck officer clones was holding a commlink him self with some small hodded figure saying "Excute Order 66."
Gatt put away the holo and grabbed a DC-15A off the wall and used hand signals to motion the rest of the extra troopers to load up their fire arms.
Ahsoka raked her brain for what Order 66 was. She once stole Echos copy of the mannual for Order 66: operation KnightFall.
She finally remembered, whant Order 66 was. Kill all the Jedi. She almost choked thinking that any Jedi would start a coup and try to overthrow anything.
All of a sudden Ahsoka jerked backwards as somesome pulled her out of where she was hiding. She spun around and gave Rusher a kick to the helmet, although it didn't really have any effect other then making his stagger back for a few seconds.
the blaster chaged to life and started to fire. She spun out her lightsaber and started deflected shots and killing troopers. She ran for the hangar fearing her childs lifde more than her own and fearing the childs father safety even more. Rex wouldn't last long against her master if he tried to shoot Anakin.
She hopped in to one of the Y-wings as the hangar doors to the out side of the ship started to close. She lifted off and shot out. She saw one of the scanner tell her the gun implacements on the ships were locking on to her. She typed in corrdanites and pulled in to Hyperspace.
~~~
*On the planet Mandalore, Kyrimorut around 1pm standard time.*
Ordo walked back in to the house Atin and Mereel following him. Besany and Jilka sat in one room staring at the fire, quiet. the window showed a darkening sky outside.
"Cyar'ika, how are you?" Ordo asked as he sat down next to Besany, his wife.
"Fine." Besany said. She looked like she was regretting something and mourning at the sametime.
Atin sat sat down next to the fire and threw another log in. some sparks came out and landed on the floor turning from red to black.
Fi had also come in when Ordo looked up his eyes were red and he was breathing kinda heavy. he sat down next to Atin and hugged his brother.

The silence was thick. Etains creamation had put the dampers on everyone. Poor Kad'ika, Niner and Darman.

Suddenly a ship streaked across the sky looking like it just came out of a scrap yard and crashed. Ordo was up and outside in an instant his blaster loaded and pointed at the ship.
Kal'buir had come out with one of his Verpine rifles and Fi was also holding up one of Kal Verpines.
The rest of Nulls gathered around all with wepons charged around the ship. It had dark reflective green stripes on the manged hull Ordo had no idea what it was.
"It looks like a Y-wing from the Resque Bregade, last time I heard of them they were sent out on a mission very shortly before Order 66." Jaing stated.
"Is it a clone in there?" Kal asked warly.
Bardan had his lightsaber in his hand, but not lit. "It dosn't feel like it. this person feels different."
Ordo was about to reply when hatch blasted off and landed a far away from the crash. Ordo heard the safety catches click off as a creature crawled out a colasped on to the grass.
Ordo took and unsure step forward, it was a Togruta female, with fading marks on her face, she was wearing a now burnt up robe and she looked fully grown.
Bardan stared at her, "I know who she is." He paused taking a step closer. "This is Skywalker's former padawan." He looked over the crashed y-wing ovious gropping for a name. "Ahsoka Tano."
"Another Jedi? How did she find us, and why in haran would she come to Mandalore?" Kal asked walking up to the unconscious jedi and knelled down next tot her. "Well I guess if she came here she oviusly knew the risk and past between a jedi and mando. Get her inside."
~~~~
Ahsoka felt something soft under her. She opened her eyes slowly and tried to sit up but abrupt dissyness fill her head and she layed back down.
Ahsoka felt someone coming to the room, he felt like a trained force senative. Ahsoka didn't think it was true untill a man in green armor and gold hair walked in to the room, it was Bardan Jusik. "I see your awake then."
"Nice to see you too Bardan, though not in the context I exspected." Ahsoka eyes traveled over the green armor he was wearing. Bardan was holding a trey of food and had a blaster holstered at his belt along with his lightsaber.
Bardan chuckled and handed Ahsoka the food. "I know, a jedi in beskar'gam, weird isn't it?"
Ahsoka gladdly took the food and started to eat. Bardan sat down and watched, he felt like he was burning to ask a question.
ahsoka paused between a bite a food and looked at Bardan. "What?"
He sighed and asked, "How did you know the place was here?"
"I didn't. I just crashed here, hopeing I could get rid of my lightsaber, get some armor and join a clan." Ahsoka replied taking a sip of water.
"Okay." Bardan paused. "Why did you come here of all places? You know Jedi and Mandalarians arn't exactly best friends."
Ahsoka paused mid sip and almost choked on the water. Ahsoka felt a bit a fear well up inside her as she thought of Rex. "I thought this was a good palce as long as I didn't strut around telling everyone I'm a jedi."
Bardan pinned her down with a stare that told her he knew she was lying.
Ahsoka gave up. "Okay, fine, a clone told me about it and it sounded alot better than life as a spoon-bender, as one trooper said once."
Bardan nodded. "I'll go tell Kal'buir that you want to stay, right?"
Ahsoka nodded, she wanted to stay here badly it seemed like a nice place.
Then Bardan walked back in, a short man in gold armor following. the man in the gold armor walked over to bed Ahsoka was sitting in and folded his arms. "If you want to stay here there are some rules you have to meet, and I don't know if you'd like them."
Ahsoka thought of the two kids growing inside her and nodded. She would make sur that no one ever took them away. "I'll do whatever it takes."
"the gold armored man sighed in relief. "Good, I'm Kal, first thing, no Force powers unless you absolutly need to, two Your going to need to get your own set of Beskar'am in other words armor and finally in mystic teaching to Kad. Hes a force-senative kid, his mother was a jedi and father is a clone."
Ahsoka stared in to Kal pale blue eyes and swalloed, "I can't help notice the past tense you used at first."
Ahsoka felt kal becoma a swirl of pain int he Force, "Kad's mother is dead, Darman,the clone, is still alive, but we just havn't gotten him out of the army yet."
Ahsoka looked down at the thin white blanket drapped over her. "Don't worry, I never really liked the jedi anyways."
Bardan took a step forward and stared in to ahsoka shockingly blue eyes. "Are you sure about that? Don't want to go resque another tougtarian jedi do we?"
Ahsoka all of a sudden found the strength  to stand up and literly jumped out of bed. She was at least a couple inches taller than him thanks to her hitting the final stage in a tougras growth pattern. She shoved her hand out and sent Bardan staggering back. "Are you mad? Why in the Force would I like another Jedi?!" Ahsoka growled her skin starting to turn red. "I'd never liked any Jedi except Master Plo Koon and he's dead."
Kal stepped in between the two Jedi. He turned his head towards Bardan. "What?"
Bardan finally snapped out of his state of shock and siad. "She exspecting children. I as thinking maybe since she use to be Skywalker's padawan, she be hanging out with alot of Jedi."
Kal turned towards Ahsoka who skin was back to its orange color. Her cheeks turned a bit red and she looked to the floor. "Lets just say I figures out the humans and Togrutas can interbreed." she schuffed the floor with her foot and she fiddled witht he zipper of the flightsuit she was wearing.
Kal looked over the Ahsoka not knowing what to do. he couldn't sit down next to her and ruffle her hair like everyone else. "Who's the father?"
"A clone, he was a commander CC-7567." Ahsoka stated she sounded worried and tears shined in her eyes.
"Kal gently storked her arm. "Its okay ad'ika, its okay."
Ahsoka wiped her eyes and looked down on Kal, 'Thanks, now when do I get my Beskar'am?"
Bardan and Kal both lauphed as the three went out to join the rest of the people in Kyrimorut.
~~~~~~
Kyrimorut, mid day before lunch, 3 years after Order 66.
~
Kal watched as the Null's, Atin, Corr, and Fi(although against Parja's nagging and complaint.) He sat under the tree watching. He heard Parja yell for the the clones to stop and they froze. Ahsoka joined and they started back up. Surpisingly Ahsoka didn't get crushed, even though she was very skinny and tall, she seemed quick and strong. Ahsoka now wore armor, it was red, with black trim and gray shoulders. red for honoring her father, black for jusice and gray mourning the lose of her lover.
"Hey Alori! Look at what I can do!" Kal looked over to see Ahsoka's human child, Tracin, was doing a handstand. Alori, a tougra female huffed as flicked her hand, sending Tracin on to his back.
"I really do not care, Tracin. Now leave me alone. I'm watching the meshgeroya game." She growled. Alori had the oddest marking he could ever think of on any kind of alien. She had two white diamonds on her cheek, that wasn't the weird part. She had the marking of the Jaig eyes on her forehead. Since it was a pure mandalorian consept, when Kal asked Ahsoka why that happened, she shrugged it off and didn't answer.
Kal was shocked out his trance-like state went his commlink went off. He looked at the location and it was untraceable, just like his. A voice come over the link that sounded alot like a clone.
"Is this Kal Skirata?" the voice sounded torn and tired.
"Idenify yourself first." Kal said roughly
Kal heard a sigh over the comm. "I'm a clone that fed up with the shabla Empire."
Kal relaxed. "Are you a Republic Commando? ARC maybe?"
"No just a regular one." the clone paused. "I'll be at the Oyu'baat in 5 standard hours."
Kal tensed up. "How do you know where I am?" He heard a small sound come from over the comm that sounded like laughing.
"Kal, you can't be that stupid can you? I met one of your squads once at the GAR baracks and when you have a helmet on and marginal hacking skills you can get in to any comm."
"Okay..." Kal paused "How will I know its you?"
A long silence from the clone, "You'll know trust me." and the link snapped off.

Kal got up a streched hearing a couple bone crack. The Bolo-ball game had stopped and all the people were gathered around a small stack of crate sharing drinks and cookies.
Ordo looked over his shoulder at Kal and Kal crooked his finger to tell him to come here. Ordo nodded and grabbed 2 more cookies off the plate.
"What is it Buir?" Ordo said offering a cookie to Kal.
Kal took it and siad, "A deserting clone we have to go meet him at the Oyu'baat in 5 hours." Kal took a bite of the cookie, spicy a touch of sweetness.
"Seems your escape network is going in to bunisness." Ordro motioned to the tight group of people around the food at the table, "Come Kal'buir, Besany made the cookies, and more are coming."
Kal walked back smiling, know grateful that the clone escape network was working.
~~~~~~
The Oyu'baat, now late evening local time.
Kal sat at in a dark corner of the bar with Ordo. Now less than a mintue away from the 5 hours deadline the bar was unusally quiet. 2 other mando's and the bartender were here.
"Buir, are you sure he said here?" Ordo said, sounding like a child. "Can you trust him?"
"I really can't answer that, he didn't give a name, he said he'd be here." Kal said fiddleing with his  three sided knife.
"Well he cutting kinda close, buir." Ordo said as he downed the rest of the ale in his glass, "What if.."
Ordo was cut off when the doors to the Oyu'baat swung open. Both looked up and Kal gasped.
He was a clone all right, not wearing stormtrooper armor but Phase I armor. the armor was dirty and scratched, it's blue designs and Jaig eyes were fading and the range finder on his helmet looked abit neglected too. He also wore a blue outlined Kama and had two GAR issued DC-17s holstered at his belt giving him the distinctive arched back just like Odro's.
He strode over, walking just like Ordo did, to the table and turned his helmet gaze towards Kal. "Kal Skirata." He turned his helmet to Ordo. Kal saw the a faint blue litght behing the visor of the helmet, he was consulting a HUD.
"Former Null ARC, N-en-on-one, Ordo." He opened the seal of his helemt witha small hiss a reveled his face. "I'm Rex. Nice to meet you." He offered his hand to Kal as he stood up taking it in the common wrist-to-elbow grip and did the saame with Ordo. "I heard."
"Then you've heard alot then." Ordo stated. "Come on we brought 2 speeders." Ordo started to walk out the door with Kal And Rex followed. He paused, "I have a ship that I want to fly back."
Kal paused, "we'll skrap it we can provide you with new everything even armor.
Rex shook his head, Kal noted that Rex had ver close shaven blond hair and a scar under his chin.
"Rex shook his head and walked up to the ship. "No the Twilight has..." He paused "Senamental value to it." He jumped in to the G9 frighter.
Ordo mounted the speeder and reved it up, his helmet camm clicked on. "Lead the way."
With that all three shot off in to the night.
~~~~
Kyrimorut, same time
~
Ahsoka sat fiddling with Rex's dog tags. She felt someone approching her and she tied them around her belt. When she turned around it was Fi in his gray and red armor. He sat down next to him.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"Fine just thinking." Ahsoka looked up at the stars never remembering seeing so many from the ground before.
"Well think about coming inside because the ad'ika have been bothering me to tell them a story and even if I have to slug you you will come inside and tell those children a story." Fi smilied in that way that melted hearts.
Ahsoka smiled back, IF she was still ajedi she would of thought that was an insult. "Okay you win." Just as she was about to get up three children came raceing out of the house.
"Buir! Buir! tell us a story!" Tracin begged. His brown and blue eyes shining.
Kad jumped, "Tell us the one about the brain worms!" He pretended to walk around like a zombie then tripped over Fi and roled on the ground laughing.
"Yeah Buir! Tell us that one!" Alori head bobbed abit, it took great control not to laugh.
"Fine, but you have to be quiet." Ahsoka warned. All three sat down, quiet waiting. Fi edged a bit closer to form a circle and got a look from Ahsoka. He just smiled.
"One day after the second battle at Genosis, we had to.." Ahsoka trailed off as she thought she heard something familar, VERY familar.
"Fi immedity stood up and looked off in the direction Ahsoka was looking. "Is something wrong?" He got a hard shhhh from Ahsoka.
Parja came out and started to say something when Alori and Tracin shhed her too.
After 5 minutes everyone exsept Kina Ha had gather outside.
Two speeders stopped in front of the crowd. Ordo and Kal dismounted their speeders and walked over.
"What happened to the clone?" Mij asked. Ordo motioned over his sholder as the sound of a ship came forward. Its was flying with out lights on and the black shape only had one wing. Ahsoka saw the ship turn 90 degrees and lights made the base stand out, and it hadn't blinded anyone.
Ahsoka noted two firm grips on her hands. Alori and Traicn were comforting her.
"This is his ship." Kal stated as the lights turned off, hatch opened, and figure walked out.
Ahsoka saw who it was even in the weak moon light, his old blue decorated armor, shone and it hightlighted his face. He looked older but was still the same confindent, exspired clone she knew.
Commander Rex, her commander, lover. Alori and Tracin let go of her to just stare at him.
Ahsoka let out a sound that sounded like a cross between a squeal and a mew. She closed the gap between them in less that 2 seconds and tackled Rex.
Rex let up a gasp as he was pushed down. He stared up in to the face that was staring at him, a face that was suppose to dead, Ahsoka. "Ahsoka?!"
she rolled off him then hulled him up. "Oh Rex, I though you were dead since you you killed Anakin.."
Rex inter rupted "But.." Ahsoka gave him that look that she knew what happened to the former Anakin Skywalker.
"I could care less about Anakin right now." Ahsoka snapped and pulled Rex into a kiss.
Everyone had to look away, it was touching. Ahsoka broke the kiss and pulled him inside leaving Ordo to figure out how to fly the Twilight.

"Rex, I want you to meet you're children." She looked around and didn't see her children there. "Tracin! Alori! Come here!"
A small boy darted over to them. Rex studied the 3-year old's face. He looked hjust like him, exsept his eyes were flecked with blue. "You're my Buir right?" he asked.
Rex nodded. Then he saw an orange movement in the corner of his eye. When he turned he almost gasped, There was a young tourgra with small white diamonds on her cheeks. But what startled him the most was the jaig eyes that decorated her forehead. She had the same blue and white head-tails and ahsoka, exsept she had four head tail rather then three.
"Amazing isn't it?" Ahsoka whispered to Rex.
Rex could only nod. Alori walked away with a datapad in her hands walking with purpose towards the door, her brown eyes fixed on the data on that screen.
It's what he always did when ever he read a datapad.
"Alori's just like you you know that?" Ahsoka said as Tracin disappeared in to a different room.
"What dose Alori mean anyways?" Rex asked. He just arived and it would take more than just a couple swear words to know how to speke pure mando'a.
A sly smile made its way on to Ahsoka face. He remembered that smile from when she was up to no good.
"It came from the word that ment Captain or lead. I never saw you work as a Commander so Alori was named after you." Ahsoka said scanning the room with her blue eyes.
Rex had to smile, he had his wife children and soon to be friend all in one palce.

He now had a life.
