A/N: I have wanted to restart Rebellion's Own for a very long time, and am going to now. It will, hopefully, run smoother than the last one did, and be less….out there. Some major changes will be made to the plot, as well as some minor details. I hope you all enjoy this one better!

Dislcaimer: I do not own Star Wars. If I did….then I wouldn't need to get a job at a crappy grocery store to pay for my horse's board and lodging. (Wouldn't that be nice?)


Ahsoka twisted in her sleep. Her blankets had since fallen off the bed and now lay rumpled on the floor. Legs twitching, Ahsoka dreamed of stormtroopers entering her house and killing both her and Obi-Wan. Even though they were on Tatooine, she was shivering.

With a grunt, Ahsoka opened her eyes to find sunlight spilling into her room. She rubbed her eyes and sat up, then looked around, trying to gather as to where she was. The sandy walls, the hot, dry air. Ahsoka frowned and stepped off her bed and walked out of her room.

"Good morning," a voice said to her left, and Ahsoka jumped, her hand instinctively going to her belt. She turned towards the voice, then relaxed when she saw Obi-Wan.

"Oops," she mumbled, still partially asleep. She let her hand slip from her lightsaber and sat down on a chair, yawning.

"I've never seen you so on edge," Obi-Wan commented, placing a steaming bowl of….something in front of her.

Not caring what it was, Ahsoka grabbed her spoon and began to eat it, glad for something filling her belly. After a few bites, she said, "I've been through a lot lately, and I've gotten used to being on edge."

Obi-Wan was sitting down now, thoughtfully tugging on his beard, which was now white.

Ahsoka shrugged and began to eat her soup again. When she was done, she grabbed the bowl and walked into the kitchen and rinsed it off with some brown looking water.

"Obi-Wan," she asked. His 'hmm?' told her to go on. "What happened to you….after….Anakin."

Obi-Wan sighed. "I was sent to kill him," he said slowly, and Ahsoka stared at him, wide eyed.

"I tried convincing Yoda to let me kill the Emperor…" Obi-Wan said slowly. "That I couldn't….kill Anakin."

Ahsoka put her hand on Obi-Wan's shoulder. "It's okay," she said. "It's okay."

Obi-Wan let out a sigh and stood up. "I'm about to take a walk," he said. "Care to join me?"

Ahsoka looked up at him and squinted, trying to see him clearly through the sleep stained vision, and shook her head. "Nah, I'll stay here. I'd like to rest up some," she said. "Haven't have much sleep in the past…..couple of years."

Obi-Wan nodded and grabbed his walking stick, then put his hood over his head, then walked out into the heat.

Ahsoka blinked sleepily several times, then got up from the table and went back to her room and fell asleep.

Ahsoka was in a jungle, caught on some vines. She couldn't move. In the distance, she saw a shuttle. An imperial shuttle. She knew that Darth Vader was in there. Or….had been in there? He wasn't now.

Metallic breathing behind her. Ahsoka closed her eyes.

And opened them. She wasn't in the jungle, she was in Obi-Wan's hut. And Darth Vader wasn't behind her. She got off the bed and walked into the living room. She yawned and said, "Obi-Wan, have anything for lunch?" When she opened her eyes, she saw that Obi-Wan had a guest.

Ahsoka's breathing heightened as she looked at the boy. Her chest rose in and out, and she glanced at Obi-Wan with wide eyes. "Anakin," she whispered.

The boy frowned and turned to Obi-Wan. "She knew my father too?"

Ahsoka looked at Obi-Wan. He sighed. "Ahsoka, this is Luke Skywalker. Luke, this is Ahsoka Tano. She was your father's apprentice."

Ahsoka turned back to Luke. "Anakin's….son?"

Luke nodded. "Yeah, but I've never met him. I live with my aunt and uncle." He stood up. Ahsoka noticed Anakin's lightsaber dangling at his belt. "And speaking of my aunt and uncle, I've got to go."

"Luke, I'm going to need your help. Alderaan needs your help."

Ahsoka frowned. "Alderaan?" she asked, but Obi-Wan didn't answer.

"I told you Ben," Luke said. "I can't do it."

Obi-Wan sighed.

"I can take you to Anchorhead," Luke said slowly. "And then you can get a shuttle to Mos Eisley, and from there…."

Obi-Wan gave him a look, one Ahsoka knew from a long time ago.

"I'll start the speeder. Come on, Artoo, Threepio," Luke said, leaving the hut.

The golden droid powered up and walked after Luke. "Threepio?" Ahsoka asked.

The droid turned around and said, "do I know you?"

Ahsoka turned to Obi-Wan, who shook his head, then looked back at Threepio. "No, no you don't."

The droid turned back to Luke and left the hut.

"Mind wipe?" Ahsoka asked Obi-Wan.

He nodded. "He went into the service of Bail Organa after Padmé…"

"I met him, a couple of years ago," Ahsoka said.

"Good man," Obi-Wan said, then stood up

"Where are you going?" Ahsoka asked him.

"You mean where are we going?"

Ahsoka made a face. "No, I don't. I'm not going anywhere."

Obi-Wan sighed. "I need your help," he said. "You coming here, now, was no accident."

Ahsoka made another face. "Obi-Wan," she said. "I came here because….I needed….I don't know." She gave out a frustrated sigh. "I came because a dead person told me to watch over someone."

Obi-Wan raised an eyebrow. "And who might these two…people be?"

Ahsoka let out another sigh. "Padmé came to me in a vision and told me to make sure some boy 'makes' it."

Obi-Wan smiled and glanced out the open door where Luke was chatting with Threepio.

It dawned on Ahsoka. "Padmé and Anakin's son," she whispered. She shook her head. "This is really messed up."

Obi-Wan sighed. "Ahsoka, I feel that we will need you on this journey."

Ahsoka sat down and put her hands in over her head. "Fine. I'll go with you."

Obi-Wan smiled, then went outside.

"Obi-Wan," Ahsoka said. Obi-Wan half turned. "Luke. Does he know?"

Obi-Wan shook his head. "And you must not tell him," he said forcefully. "Do you understand me?"

Ahsoka nodded. "Yeah. Yeah, I understand." She wouldn't tell him. For now.

They stopped at a wreckage site of Jawa sandcrawler. Ahsoka stayed in the speeder while Obi-Wan and Luke and the droids investigated. She had her arms crossed and was watching them when Luke's face went white. Ahsoka frowned and jumped out of the speeder.

"What's wrong?"

Neither answered her, but Luke ran from Obi-Wan, jumped into the speeder and was gone. Ahsoka blinked, then ran to Obi-Wan. "What happened?"

"Stormtroopers did this," he said. "They were after the droids."

"Why did Luke run?"

Here Obi-Wan sighed. "They traced the droids to this sandcrawler. They sold the droids to Luke's aunt and uncle."

Ahsoka frowned. "Which means they could have found them," she said. "Which is why Luke left. Do you think he'll make it in time?"

"It's still smoldering, but by the looks of it, they were here a long time ago." Obi-Wan let out a sad sigh. "I don't think they made it."

He turned to the Jawa bodies that littered the ground. "Come, Ahsoka. We must give them a decent burial. It would do no good to have them ravaged by animals, or the sandpeople."

Ahsoka nodded and gathered some of the wood into a pile, then grabbed one of the smoldering pieces. The wood lit. She and Obi-Wan, with the help of Threepio, gathered all the jawas and burned their bodies.

When they had finished, Luke was making his return. He stopped the speeder and got out. Ahsoka could see he was trying to hold back the tears that were overwhelming him.

"They're gone." It came out no more than a whisper.

"You could have done nothing," Obi-Wan said. "Had you been there, they would have killed you too. And the droids would now be in the possession of the Empire."

Ahsoka frowned. Obi-Wan could be….blunt. And bluntness can sometimes hurt.

"There's nothing here for me now," Luke said. "I want to go with you to Alderaan."

Obi-Wan smiled. "You shall become a Jedi, like your father before you."

"Only not fall to the darkside. Hopefully," Ahsoka thought to herself.


Well, here is the first chapter. I've been thinking a lot about this lately, and I think because Ahsoka is here with the gang, something she does, even a small something, would have to change something else in the timeline. With that thinking, I've created a whole new alternate universe that takes place. Some of the main things in the trilogy will still happen, but differently. New things will take place of older ones, and we'll meet new people. Don't worry, we'll still meet everyone we do in 4,5 and 6, but just differently. Anyway, bear with me for this story. I'm really excited about it.

And if none of that made any sense, then just keep reading the chapters and you'll get the basic jist of it. :)
