With increasing pressure from Admiral Tarkin and the Galactic Senate, the Jedi Council
have no choice but to expel Jedi padawan Ahsoka Tano, and leave her fate to the Republic Military
Tribunal. Ahsoka and her master Anakin Skywalker, know that the evidence is against her defence,
and it was out of the hands of the Jedi Council, so Anakin had to find the real perpetrator.
Whilst Ahsoka stood on trial with the help of Senator Amidala, Anakin entered into the
depth of Coruscant’s underworld, finding Asajj Ventress. The former Separatist ally
is able to guide Anakin to the Jedi Barriss Offee, and the Jedi Knight has his suspicions.
As he entered the padawan quarters, he ignites his lightsaber, and Barriss defends with the
lightsabers of Ventress. Duelling through the Temple, Anakin overpowers Barriss, and
arrests her just before Palpatine could sentence Ahsoka. Despite Barriss’ confession to the
bombing of the Jedi Temple, Ahsoka’s faith in the order had been shaken, and she left
the place she had called home. But what if Ahsoka had stayed in the Jedi Order? How would
this affect Anakin’s turn to the dark side? Would this scupper Palpatine’s plans? As
you will find out, Ahsoka’s decision will shake the face of the clone war…
As Ahsoka stood in the Council chamber, she was surrounded by Anakin and the Council members,
hearing their apologies. The Jedi padawan was internally disgusted with Master Windu,
as he regarded it as a personal trial for herself, rather than admitting to the Council’s
mistakes, but he did at least hint at her becoming a Jedi knight. Turning to face her
own master, he holds her Silka beads in anticipation, and Ahsoka pauses, before taking them in her
hand. Anakin is relieved, but feels guilty that Ahsoka is only staying for him, and Yoda
begins the ceremony to knight Ahsoka. Afterwards, Yoda asks Ahsoka to talk to him in his quarters,
and he knew that Ahsoka did not want to stay for the sake of being a Jedi, rather for her
master. The new Jedi knight is given a special mission, to try and find a way to capture
Count Dooku. Ahsoka is hesitant, as Anakin and Obi-Wan had failed to apprehend the Sith,
but she had the guidance of the Force. Bowing to Yoda, who returned her old lightsabers,
her first instinct was to visit Anakin, and her master was busy mending to his starfighter.
Ahsoka tells him of her mission to capture Dooku, and Anakin is equally sceptical, until
he had the idea of visiting Senator Amidala for her assistance. Ahsoka admits to Anakin
that she had known about his marriage with Senator Amidala, and the Jedi feels a great
weight off of his shoulders, until she implores him to tell Obi-Wan. Anakin is mortified at
the thought, as he expected Obi-Wan to tell the Jedi Council, but Ahsoka is insistent
before leaving the Temple. For the first time as knights, the two go to Padme’s apartment,
and Ahsoka asks her friend what she can do. The Senator is about to make a trip to the
planet of Scipio, much to the annoyance of Anakin, as this would mean meeting the devilish
Rush Clovis, but a chance to lure Dooku. Awaiting orders from Padme and Anakin, Ahsoka had one
more task before joining them. Heading for Coruscant’s underworld, Ahsoka takes the
speeder she had left behind, and flew down to level 1312, looking for the hideout of
Asajj Ventress. To her disappointment, the Nightsister is nowhere to be found, and she
realised she had forgotten about her deal with the new bounty hunter. Returning to the
Temple, she tells the Council about pardoning the crimes of Ventress, but the decision is
up to the Galactic Senate. Next moving to the Jedi archives, Ahsoka finds Jedi investigator
Tera Sinube, asking for the whereabouts of Ventress. The former Council member tells
Ahsoka, that Ventress had left in a gunship a short while ago, and was reported trying
to establish contacts with bounty hunters and criminal syndicates. Entering her starfighter,
she regrettably entered the coordinates for the planet of Florrum. Approaching the desert
planet, she is greeted by the Weequay pirate Hondo Ohnaka, and his gang. This time, they
their intent is to not capture her, but to do something about the ship, which was hovering
in the atmosphere above their planet, before it was dealt with by another gang. Entering
in a borrowed ship, she saw a unique pursuit craft and dragged it down to the planet’s
surface. Whilst the pirates took apart the ship’s parts, Ahsoka extracted the injured
Ventress. Bidding the pirates a hasty farewell, she flew the injured Ventress to a nearby
medical frigate, and with the help of a medical droid, her eyes soon opened. The Dathomirian
is surprised to see Ahsoka, having expected their previous meeting in Coruscant’s underworld
to be their last, but Ahsoka needed her to lure and battle Dooku. Ventress cautions Ahsoka
to not underestimate her former master, but decides she wants revenge. Back on Coruscant,
Darth Sidious had felt a disturbance in the Force. The move by Ahsoka Tano to remain in
the order had been unexpected, and now he sensed his apprentice was going to face danger.
Activating his holoprojector, his apprentice bowed in front of him, and Sidious instructed
him to bring his Magnaguards to deal with any unwelcome visitors. There was no escape
from Darth Sidious. That is it for part 1 of what if Ahsoka stayed
in the Jedi Order. If you’d like to see a part 2 soon, please like this video, turn
