Ahsoka gasped, and clapped her hands over her mouth, and almost turned off the hologram. She was staring wide eyed at the coordinates of the new First Order space station…She’d gotten word from General Organa that they had taken out the entire Hosnian system only hours ago and that their next target was the Resistance base.
She’d called Ahsoka to fill her in and for some help, and since Ahsoka was always ready to help, there she was: On a ship, on route to the Illenium System, and who knew what else…She was really getting too old for this…but she was a Jedi at heart. Which is why she couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw that the coordinates for Star Killer Base were at…at Illum.
She knew that the Empire had stripped that planet decades ago, and it had broken her heart to see it, but she never thought they’d dare go this far. It seemed as though they’d managed to build a massive hyperspace vehicle into the planet itself. It appeared to operate like the Empires death stars but more vile and powerful than she could ever have imagined. She could barely wrap her head around the technology too…
She leaned back in her seat and stared out the viewport at the wondrously blue spirals of hyperspace. It always helped clear her head. She closed her eyes and breathed deeply, slowly. She had to remind herself that this wasn’t the Empire, this was far worse…an organised and heavily armed intergalactic mercenary group, out for nothing but death and destruction. She held back a sob. Strangely enough, of all the people she could have wished to have beside her right then, she just wanted R2. That droid had seen more action than even she had…
She stared through the viewport again, pondering the next adventure that lay ahead.
