Reunions
Ahsoka stood with Hera as they waited for the hatch to open. Ahsoka felt a shift in the force and her face scrunched up in confusion,
"Did they mention anything about bringing someone else with them?"
Hera shook her head,
"They did not,"
The door opened, and Ahsoka smiled in relief at seeing the faces of her old friends. Rex was the first to greet her with a salute,
"Commander,"
Ahsoka chuckled and saluted back at him,
"Captain Rex,"
As soon as the salute fell, Ahsoka pulled him into a hug,
"It's good to see you again, old friend,"
Rex chuckled,
"It's nice to see you well. And grown up,"
Ahsoka smirked,
"Yeah, you did get really old,"
Cody chuckled,
"You should see him with a white beard,"
Rex sighed,
"You needed Cody too?"
Ahsoka laughed and hugged Cody,
"Yes,"
Fives waved his hand,
"Commander! Don't forget about us!"
Ahsoka laughed and pulled Echo and Fives into a small hug,
"I am happy that this was a success,"
Kanan sighed,
"Yeah,"
Ahsoka looked at him,
"Be open-minded, Kanan,"
Sabine smirked,
"He was very open-minded when he kept Wolffe from getting his head chopped off,"
Wolffe rolled his eyes,
"I would have been fine,"
Kix punched his shoulder,
"No, you would have died,"
Ahsoka frowned,
"What are you talking about? An inquisitor?"
Kanan shook his head and glanced at the ship,
"No, Ezra picked someone up-"
Sabine smirked,
"Not just anyone, she knows Mandalorian Customs. Also, she is a Jedi too, but more importantly, she knows my customs,"
Ahsoka's eyes widened in surprise along with Hera,
"How did Ezra find her?"
Kanan sighed,
"He felt a pull through the force and followed it. Turns out that he has a godmother who is a Jedi,"
Hera crossed her arms,
"And where is she?"
"She wanted to speak to Ezra alone before following us out,"
Hera frowned,
"Do you think she will take Ezra away?"
Zeb shook his head,
"No, she was pretty adamant on leaving as soon as possible, alone."
Then light footsteps were heard and they turned to see Sora storming off the ship with Ezra running after her,
"Wait!"
Sora didn't look back until she stopped as she saw Ahsoka. She felt a wave of shock and hurt flow through her before shaking her head,
"Where is Bail Organa,"
That made everyone stop and stare at her in pure shock that she knew that he was helping the rebellion. Hera calmly stepped forward,
"Senator Organa is not h-"
Sora raised her hand and Hera immediately stopped talking,
"Before you lie to me. I know he is here. I can find him myself if I must. But I decided to not be rash and storm through this entire ship to find him."
Ahsoka frowned,
"How do you know Senator Organa?"
Sora refused to look at Ahsoka again as she looked around the ship,
"He's an old friend of mine. He has some things to explain to me. If he was ever force-sensitive. He would know that I am here. But he's not so I need someone to summon him right now."
Ahsoka frowned,
"Your signature is clouded."
Sora nodded,
"Yes, I am aware of that,"
Ezra grabbed her shoulder,
"Sora-"
"Ezra. Do not get me wrong, I love you. But now is not the time to grab my shoulder,"
Ezra frowned but took a step back, and Kanan stepped in front of him in a protective manner. Sora glanced at him before shrugging,
"You care about your padawan, and I appreciate that. Now. Where is Organa?"
Ahsoka was about to speak before a gasp was heard. The group turned to see Bail Organa being led by his usual guards,
"N-Sora?"
Sora immediately walked up to him and pointed at him,
"You and I need to have a lil catch-up,"
Bail winced as he glanced at Ahsoka slightly before sighing and nodding,
"That we do, old friend. Let's go somewhere private,"
Sora nodded, and the two walked away, leaving everyone with many questions. When they walked into a room, Sora immediately crossed her arms and stared at Bail,
"How could you?"
Bail sighed,
"Sora-"
"No! How could you keep this away from me?!"
Bail grabbed her shoulders,
"Sora! Look around you!"
Sora sighed and looked around the small office,
"Why?"
Bail sighed and sat down on a chair,
"If you found out that Ahsoka was alive, what would you have done?"
Sora sat down in front of him and crossed her arms,
"I would have gone after her to find her. Find out what happened on Mandalore. Get answers about my siblings,"
Bail nodded,
"Yes, that is correct. Instead, you safely went undercover to find Bo-Katan. You asked her what happened to your siblings, friend, and Ahsoka. You discovered that Luiz, Max, and Alison were sent back to Earth through the blue portal. You found out that Ahsoka, along with your joint company, captured Maul and left Mandalore before they crashed and they were all killed-"
"Except they weren't all killed. Rex and Ahsoka survived! I went to that crash site! I saw all the graves of so many people I considered brothers. I saw Ahsoka's lightsabers. I felt his presence when I got there. He was there before me."
Bail sighed,
"Sora. If I had told you that Ahsoka was alive, you would have never gone to Tatooine with Obi-Wan and Luke. You would have never branched out and started fighting your own way. You would have never stopped looking until you found her. It would have destroyed you."
Sora shook her head,
"This was not your choice to make!"
Bail crossed his arms,
"I told everyone that Obi-Wan died. I confirmed his death, and I started a rumor that you were sent back to Earth because the Clone Wars ended. You would have never been there to save Leia if you were off searching for Ahsoka. You got my distress call along with Obi-Wan, and you saved my adopted daughter. Sora, please don't see everything different now,"
Sora shook her head and stood up,
"I'm leaving. I need a ship,"
Bail sighed and stood up again,
"Take whichever one you like,"
Sora nodded and looked at him,
"Bail?"
Bail nodded,
"What is it?"
Sora sighed and slowly raised her hand,
"I'll change him. I know I can. Just trust me,"
Bail's eyes widened in shock,
"What are you talking about?"
Sora smiled softly at him,
"It's time for an old reunion that is long overdue. Just not the one I wanted. But I will do it for them."
She then used the force to push Bail away and sprinted out of the room. Bail's eyes widened as he realized what she meant,
"STOP! SORA!"
She sped down the corridors as she heard over the speaker,
"Attention all hands on deck. Stop Sora from escaping. She is not permitted on a ship."
Sora frowned and rolled her eyes,
"Damn, gatekeeper,"
"SORA!"
She stopped as she turned around to see Ezra and his friends, including Ahsoka and the clones,
"What are you doing?!"
Sora threw the Mandalorian helmet to the side,
"I'm doing what I should have done many years ago,"
"Shoot to stun only!"
Ahsoka looked at Ezra and Kanan,
"You two stay back, I can do this,"
Rex smirked,
"All that training is going to pay off?"
Ahsoka nodded,
"Yes, it will,"
Sora sighed as she saw Ahsoka light her two white blades,
"Cool, white, haven't seen that before,"
Ahsoka shrugged,
"It's from turning red kyber crystals pure,"
Sora nodded,
"Cool,"
Rex, Cody, Fives, Echo, Wolffe, and Kix immediately started firing at Sora, and she expertly dodged the shots. Ahsoka then ran toward her, and at the last second, Sora brought up two lightsabers and clashed them with Ahsoka's sabers. Ahsoka stumbled back slightly from the force, and her eyes widened at the purple hue,
"Purple,"
Sora smirked and twirled them to deflect the blasts,
"Yep,"
Ahsoka sprung up, and the two fought against each other, trying to obviously disarm the other, all while dodging the blasts sent to them by the former clones. Fives was the first to stop shooting as he felt nostalgia hit him like a truck when he watched the two fight. It reminded him too much of his sister and the former padawan training under one Anakin Skywalker. Sora saw an opening and immediately took it. She lept over Ahsoka with ease and kicked her back. Ahsoka flew forward and grunted. She flew into Rex and Cody, and the three landed in a heap. Ahsoka's eyes widened in shock as she immediately stood up and looked at Sora. Sora smiled sadly at Ahsoka and nodded her head,
"I'm sorry this had to end so abruptly. But I got someone to meet. And he was never known to be patient."
Bail finally got to the scene and locked eyes with Sora,
"Don't leave, please,"
Sora smiled sadly at Bail,
"Maybe in another life, Senator Organa. But, if I do see her, I'll tell her you said hello...and I'll tell her what you did for the two of them,"
Bail shook his head,
"You can't go,"
Sora chuckled and smirked at Bail,
"For the record, I would have found her. She still uses the same technique as all those years ago. I would have found my sister easily,"
Bail sighed as he did nothing but watch as his friend turned her back on him,
"Good luck, Sora,"
"May the force be with you, Bail Organa,"
