The Past Truth

Fives opened the holo-disk to answer the call, 

"Why if it isn't my favorite sister,"

Nikki laughed, 

"I'm your only sister,"

"Which makes you my favorite,"

Nikki rolled her eyes, 

"I wanted to tell you something-"

She was interrupted by a blast and Fives frowned, 

"Victory, are you on the field?"

He watched in concern as she blocked blaster shots, 

"Maybe-"

"Get off this call! I thought we made a deal where you only call me if you aren't on the field! We could get caught!"

"Hey! I won't get caught. I'm further up than our Vods. I needed to tell you something that happened,"

Fives sighed and nodded, 

"Alright, out with it, Victory,"

"Master Plo told me there are two new Jedi in the Order. Anakin found them, well more like Rex found them in the field. Master Plo said they are serving in the 501st right now as co-generals, and one of them will get their own squad. I wanted to warn you. I don't know what's going on...but something is changing. I felt it in the force last week which is when they came. Master Plo and I are still deployed, as you can tell, but as soon as I get to Coruscant, I think we should move your house again-"

"Victory, stop worrying about me. I will be fine. What are their names?"

"Um. I think something like Soar and Ax? I'm not sure. Just stay safe, Fives, okay?"

"I will, I promise, Vod'ika,"

"Talk soon, Vod,"

"Don't do anything stupid,"

He saw Nikki smirk, 

"How could I? You take all the stupid with you,"

Fives rolled his eyes and ended the call. He sighed and brought his hands up to his face, 

"Two new Jedi? At a time like this, what the kriff is going on?"

He got up and went to the sink before he heard something outside. He immediately took out his blaster and hid behind the wall. The door opened and closed as he breathed softly to make sure the intruder didn't hear him. He heard footsteps approach him and immediately shot at the hooded figure. He gasped when the shots stopped mid-flight and raised his blaster before hearing them, 

"Please don't shoot again, I just want to talk,"

He paused and glared at the figure, 

"How did you get in?"

The figure chuckled and moved out of the way as the blasts hit the stone wall. The figure dropped her hood, and he was surprised to see a woman with short blonde and blue hair with blue eyes looking at him, 

"Well, it does help that you forgot to lock the door. Which is actually a very bad thing to do, by the way, because if I was a robber, I could have easily robbed you, regardless of the traps outside,"

Fives frowned, 

"How did-"

The woman chuckled, 

"I'm a Jedi. You really need to update your security. Especially since you are hiding in Coruscant from the very people in charge of the planet,"

Five glared at her, 

"How did you know?"

The woman shrugged, 

"I was told that you could help me...take a seat so we can discuss some things,"

Fives narrowed his eyes and sighed, 

"Fine. But how did you find me?"

"Nikki sent me. She said you were the only one who could help me,"

Fives immediately frowned in confusion at the confession, as Nikki clearly did not mention anything to him, 

"What's your name?"

"My name is Sora, I'm a new Jedi of the Order,"

Fives' eyes widened as he realized she was the one Nikki was talking about.

"Why do you need my help?"

Sora sighed and looked at him with clear pain in her eyes,

"What you tried to warn them about...all that time ago...what would you do if I told you I believe it? I believe that the Clones have a fail switch that could cause the genocide of all the Jedi?"

Fives could not believe what he was hearing, 

"Wh-What? You do?"

Sora nodded, 

"I do. And I need your help researching it. I am assuming you already started, as everyone believes you to be dead, thanks to Nikki,"

Fives narrowed his eyes at her, 

"Why should I trust you? Why would you believe me?"

Sora looked away, 

"Because. My brother and I were attacked by clones when we escaped our planet. They were with some kind of Jedi killer, and I was stabbed. I barely made it out, and my honorary older brother, Axel, saved me...got both of us out. I don't believe that all Clones are like that...not after meeting the 501st and some of the other Battalions. So, your hypothesis sounded like it was the only possible explanation,"

"Why didn't you tell anyone else? Like the Jedi Council?"

Sora rolled her eyes, 

"They wouldn't believe the new kids. So, Nikki told me about you."

Fives sighed and shook his head, 

"As much as I would love to trust that last part,"

Sora's eyes widened as Fives lifted his gun to her face again, 

"I just got off the phone with Nikki. She mentioned you only as the new Jedi with your buddy, Axel. So I will give you one last chance,"

Sora's eyes furrowed in confusion, 

"But, she's on a mission right now, how could she have called you?"

It came out too fast for her to stop herself. Fives immediately narrowed his eyes, 

"How did you know?"

Sora groaned, 

"Kriff. I'm going to get into trouble,"

Fives narrowed his eyes and glared at her, 

"Well? Fess up, princess,"

Sora rolled her eyes, 

"Really? Princess?"

Fives nodded, and Sora raised her hands in surrender, 

"Fine, fine. Look. You're very smart, granted, not as smart as Echo, but still very smart-"

"Don't you dare say his name! How did you know his name?"

Sora looked at him and winced, 

"I want to know if you will get it. Think about it. How else would I know about this place if Nikki didn't tell me? Hell, Nikki would never break a promise."

Fives frowned and slowly set down his blaster, 

"You didn't bring your friend with you. You came alone. You chose to keep this place a secret rather than exposing me for being alive. You knew about what I tried convincing everyone all those months ago...you knew about Echo...How?"

Sora smirked, 

"Maybe my name will help,"

Fives frowned,

"What?"

Sora rolled her eyes, 

"Selfless. Outstanding, Rebellious, and Amusing,"

Fives eyes widened in shock, 

"No,"

Sora laughed and nodded her head, 

"Surprise?"

Fives shook his head in disbelief, 

"Nikki?"

Nikki nodded and crossed her arms, 

"Hey, Fives,"

Fives pulled her into a tight hug, 

"How?"

Nikki sighed, 

"That is a very, very long story, Vod,"

Fives frowned, 

"But I was just talking to you? And you look different,"

Nikki nodded, 

"Yes, I guess you were. But I am from the future. Axel and I came from the future to fix the past...or now the present,"

Fives frowned, 

"But nothing is wrong...well, other than the war,"

Nikki shook her head, 

"Fives, why would I ask you to help me with the Chips?"

Fives' eyes widened in shock, 

"No. No no no, Nikki and I. We were going to solve it,"

Nikki sighed and put her hand on top of his, 

"I know. I remember our empty promises."

"H-How can I be sure it's you?"

Nikki chuckled sadly and leaned back into the seat, 

"You said you just spoke with Nikki, right?"

Fives nodded, 

"Well, right before ending our calls. One of us would say, don't do anything stupid and then we would say-"

"How could I? You bring all the stupid with you,"

Nikki nodded with a sad smile, 

"Yeah,"

Fives felt the tears well up in his eyes, 

"I failed to save my brothers,"

Nikki shrugged, 

"Not this time,"

Fives frowned, 

"How can you be so sure?"

Nikki shrugged and smirked at him, 

"By the will of the Force. I'm here, and Axel is here. We will fix it,"

"How can you be so sure?"

Nikki shrugged, 

"That's the fun part. We can't be. But we can sure as hell hope,"
