Chapter 12: Plans and Secrets
Kanan's POV
The young Jedi sat on his meditation mat with the glowing red Sith Holocron in front of him. The noise from the outside hallways was blocked off due to his concentration with the force but still had his senses alert for anyone who was making their way to his room.
It hadn't been long after Malachor that Kanan had found Ezra trying to open it, Kanan had told him that it would do more harm than good and that it wasn't the Jedi way. He had then hid it from Ezra but every now and then had caught him with it. One day as Kanan was trying to find a new hiding spot for it, he heard a low seductive voice calling his name and ever since that day, he has tried to open it every day to unlock the secrets.
Thrawn's POV
"And you're sure this plan will not fail?" Palpatine asked, "I am certain of it my Lord" Thrawn replied to the blue translucent image of The Emperor, "well then, good luck" Palpatine said as the hologram cut out. Thrawn smiled to himself as he got off his knees and started to make his way to the exit, he had to admit that this was probably the most cunning plan he had ever come up with plus he'd get a little revenge. This will definitely show Vader who's really in command.
Hera's POV
She along with Sabine, Zeb, Sato and Lux had made their way to the command centre after reviving a call from one of the officers that Senator Organa and Mon Mothma, the two highest commanding officers in the Rebellion, needed to speak with them. They all took their seats around the holo-table as the transmission started. "Senator Organa and Senator Mothma, what required you to contact us this urgently?" Sato asked voicing everyone's thoughts. "We'll just cut to the chase" Organa said as he turned to Mon Mothma, "the Rebel Cell on Onderon has been attacked, few survived but those who did on their way to you. Half will join Phoenix Squadron while the other half join Shadow Squadron." Mothma explained.
"That's the 2nd time the Empire has attacked a Rebel Cell this week!" Zeb spoke up looking alarmed.
"Yes and as much as we hate to admit it, we think there's a leak in High Command. We are conducting a thorough search but as far as orders go, continue to attack the Empire where you can but you must remain hidden!" The male Senator exclaimed.
"Until next time, May the Force be with you."
Barriss' POV
The sudden voice rendered her speechless which resulted in her just standing there looking for words to say but the only words she managed were "who...who are...you?"
"That is of no importance right now for you are the one who bombarded my home. Now, ANSWER" the voice screeched.
"B...Bar...Barriss Offee and I'm here searching for Darth Maul on behalf of The Empire." Barriss said nervously.
"Barriss Offee, hm, I remember you" the green mist spoke.
Barriss looked deep into the mist looking for something that could give her a clue as to who she was speaking with but the stranger must have known as she spoke up.
"I'll save you the trouble dear. You hit me and stole my lightsabers then made it looked like I was framing Ahsoka Tano." The mist said as it all of a sudden exploded and started linking together and started forming a person. "I am Asajj Ventress."
Ok it's been a month since I've updated and I am so so so sorry. August has seriously been non stop for me like I've been sick, I've had family and friends from overseas come to visit, I've been looking for a part time job and honestly I haven't had a break.
