Chapter 1

A tornado appeared seemingly out of nowhere in an ancient temple where the only source of light were the crack above and glowing red circuit like lines on the ground.

Ahsoka awo-*groan*-ke to pain racking her entire body and strong winds surrounding her.

'I'm alive?'

Before she could even think of anything else, the pain doubled, then tripled, then quadrupled, until only a single thought was in her mind.

'IT HURTS! IT HURTS! IT HURTS! IT HURTS! IT HURTS !IT HURTS! IT HURTS! IT HURTS! IT HURTS!...'

"Ackkk!"

Her body started spasming as she tried to scream, all she made were choking sounds in her attempt to do so.The pain was so great it prevented her from passing or dying out no matter how much she wanted to, and it just kept increasing.

The wind kept going faster and louder until Ahsoka couldn't hear her own thoughts, she could only feel an ever increasing pain that seem to cover her entire being until something it stopped, her body stilled, only silence remained as the winds came to a stop as quickly as it had came.

Her mind seemed to have left her body as eventually whatever that was causing the hell defying pain and the miniature tornado had stopped. if one were to look at this scene, they'd only see a tanned female with white fleshy appendages that had blue highlights on her head that draped down her shoulders in place of hair and white markings on her face. Garbed in strange clothing that had burns all around it but the woman herself didn't have a single scratch on her. (SW Rebels Ahsoka)

20BBY

Malachor

*inhale*

*exhale*

Sounds of breathing echoed throughout the deserted temple.

In one of the chambers lay the figure of a female togruta in peaceful slumber, by her side were two lightsabers.

Eventually the woman stirred and started to regain consciousness.

"Mmmm?"

Ahsoka rubbed her still closed eyes tiredly as she awoke once again, this time without mind breaking pain running through her entire body.

Her eyes snapped open with any hint of drowsiness gone.

'What happened?'

Confusion filled Ahsoka as she stood up and pat herself, as if making sure she was real.

'My injuries are gone?'

Looking around Ahsoka noticed she was still at the sith temple in malachor, her body tensed as her lightsabers flew into her hands.

A white blade shot out of a lightsaber in one of her hands with the other stretched out in a combat stance as she analyzed her surroundings.

She stayed like that for a few seconds until her posture relaxed as she her lightsaber retracted with a hiss.

Looking around more only made her brows further furrowed in confusion.

'There's no one here.'

She noticed something strange as she further observed her surroundings.

'There's no marks on the ground from my fight, and the place isn't soaked in the dark side anymore. If anything, it feels... empty.'

Sighing in frustration at her situation, Ahsoka started to think back to the fight.

A gentle smile was on her face as she thought of the end of the battle, well if you could call avoiding attacking someone as they were trying to kill you a battle.

"Anakin...."

The name left her lips filled with fond emotions.

She remembered seeing his sapphire eyes, his tears trickling down her face.

His cold yet warm arms embracing her, unwilling to let go.

'Couldn't you have come to your senses sooner skyguy, honestly.'

Warm thoughts about the man that she thought lost appeared in her mind.

The smile eventually fell as she bit on her lips with her brows furrowed and arms crossed in thought.

'What happened, I remember my blacking out then waking up. My memory after waking up are a bit fuzzy but…*shudder*'

Ahsoka's face pales at remembering the pain that wracked her body when she first woke up.

'Whatever that was, I just hope it won't come back.'

Ahsoka felt a tug from the force pulling her out of her thoughts. It was as if the force was telling her where to go.

Seeing no other options available, ahsoka walks in the direction she felt the tug.

Everywhere she looked, the same sight always greeted her.

Cold stone walls illuminated by a silver light coming from her lightsaber,

Only the sound of her boots across the dark hallway, accompanied by the slight hum of her lightsaber could be heard.

It was so eerily silent she could hear her own heart beating loudly within her chest.

'How long have i been walking?'

When everything around you is the same no matter how far she walked down those dark halls, your sensation of time play with you.

Hours feel like fleeting moments, while the minutes seem to last forever.

After what she thinks to be a couple hours (a rough estimate by how dry her throat has become) she finally saw an end to this never ending hallway.

'Light!'

She picked up her pace into a full sprint towards the light that appeared at the other end of the hallway.

She shielded her eyes that were slowly getting accustomed to the light, when she opened them, the rocky and hellish terrain of malachor greeted her sight.

Dark clouds loomed above, while it wasn't what one could call bright, it was still a welcomed change compared to the pitch black tunnels she just went through.

The surface akin to an ocean of liquid carbonite that had frozen.

Small, pyramidal, solid stone foothills continuously dotted the lands before her.

The air smelled the same as within the temple in this dead planet. Stale yet now it was filled with dust.

Looking around she couldn't spot the Ghost so she assumed that they've left already, neither could she see the ship vader-Anakin- arrived on.

"*sigh*.. Stranded on a planet said to be cursed and avoided like a plague by Jedi, this is probably the worst situation I've been in since.. actually this is probably the worst situation i've been in period"

Self monologuing aside, the situation itself does seem to be pretty hopeless.

Barely anybody ever goes to Malachor and even if somebody does, they probably weren't in the right mind or had some less savoury intentions.

"Good going Ahsoka."

Sarcasm practically dripped off those words as she tries to think about ways to get off the planet.

'Well, it's not like standing around's gonna do anything.'

With that thought in mind, ahsoka sets off to the barren wasteland below, letting the force guide her to wherever it wants her to go.

Jedi Temple, Coruscant

"Hmmm, a disturbance in the force there is, meditate on this I will."

The ramblings of a small green creature echoes throughout the empty halls of the temple.

Senate Building, Coruscant

In the chambers of the Supreme Chancellor, the figure of Chancellor Palpatine who could be seen writing some documents a moment ago is now furrowing his brow as he looked out to the bustling metropolis.

'There is a great disturbance, this unknown factor will have to be dealt with swiftly lest it disturbs my plans.'

Palpatine, otherwise known as darth sidious reached to the darkside for answers, all he got was silence.

This greatly frustrated him as a scowl grew on his face, his eyes glowed menacing yellow.
