Synopsis: Knightsister Asajj Ventress and jedi Master Quinlan Voss arrive on koboh to find the abyss compass, while Kit Fisto and Aayla secura search for Potential allies.

Chapter Text

The scene transitions to a desert on the planet of koboh where Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Voss were getting ready to land on the planet in the Banshee a Lancer-class pursuit craft.

"Well, We're finally here." Ventress sighed, as she landed the ship on the landing pad behind the Cantina.

"It appears that way." Quinlan agreed. As the Boarding steps opened and they walked out onto the landing pad Judging by the surroundings they were in the Rambler's Reach Outpost.

"This is the place." Quinlan said.

"Yeah, I'd say it is." Ventress agreed.

"Well, Let's head inside." Quinlan suggested.

"Sounds good, Let's go." Ventress agreed. As they entered the Cantina and took a seat at the bar.

"What can I get you" the bartender asked.

"Two shots of Corellian brandy" Quinlan ordered.

"Coming right up." The bartender replied, as he poured two shots and handed them to Ventress and Voss.

"So, how are we going to find this compass" Ventress asked.

"We'll just have to ask around about any high republic ruins." Quinlan replied, As they downed their drinks.

"I suppose that makes sense." Ventress agreed,

"Right, Let's go then." Quinlan decided.

"Okay." Ventress agreed, As they left the Cantina and walked over to Dendra's Antiquities.

"Let's see if we can find anything in here." Quinlan suggested.

"I doubt we'll find anything but let's go ahead and look" Ventress sighed.

"That's the spirit." Quinlan smiled.

"Don't get too excited, Vos." Ventress said.

"I won't." Quinlan promised. As they entered the shop and approached the counter Directly behind it they could see a female Waluna.

"Good evening, How may I help you?" Doma Dendra asked.

"Do you have any information on high republic ruins on this planet" Quinlan asked.

"I may, But I don't know if I should share such sensitive information with you, All I know you could be working with the Bedlam Raiders." Dendra replied.

"The Bedlam Raiders" Ventress asked.

"Yes, They're a gang that are led by a Gun'dai named Rayvis." Dendra explained.

"A Gun'dai, Huh." Quinlan thought. He knew that the species was known for their ability to regenerate from any injury but they had one weakness their core nerves Is located in their neck meaning all it would take is decapitation.

"So, do you have any information about these ruins?" Ventress asked.

"I do, There Several ruins across the area, One of them could potentially have what you're seeking strangers" Dendra informed.

"Where are they located" Ventress asked.

"Well, There's an old high Republic satellite array in the Basalt Forest to the north of here, But be careful the koboh matter particles are quite deadly" Dendra explained.

"Thank you" Quinlan replied.

"You're welcome" Dendra smiled. As Ventress and Quinlan exited the store.

"Well, We're not any closer to finding the compass" Ventress sighed.

"No, We're not, but we are closer to finding out where we might find it" Quinlan corrected.

"That's true." Ventress agreed.

"Alright, Master Yoda told us that we have to retrace the steps of Santari Khri, the basalt forest would be a good place to start." Quinlan decided.

"I agree." Ventress replied.

"Let's go, then." Quinlan suggested. As they made their way towards the basalt forest.


Meanwhile Kit Fisto and Aayla Secura arrive Onderon in a refugee vessel.

"We're finally here." Aayla said.

"Indeed, if the Holo net reports are accurate Saw Gerrera and Onderonian Militia are already trying to push back against the empire" Kit Fisto replied.

"That's good, do you think you'll need our help." Aayla agreed. The main reason they had come to Onduron was to see if Find allies who'd be willing to help fight the empire.

"Maybe, It depends on what we find when we meet with Saw" Kit Fisto replied.

"That makes sense" Aayla nodded. As they exited the ship and made their way towards forest Outside of the city. No one paid them much mind considering they weren't dressed in their typical attire padme had loaned Aayla her Thousand Moons system refugee disguise from the separatist crisis, With Kit fisto being loaned the Thousand Moons system refugee disguise that had been worn by Anakin.

"So, how are we gonna contact Saw" Aayla asked.

"I'm not sure yet," Kit fisto replied. As they Enter the forest using the force their guide

"I guess we'll just have to keep walking until we find them" Aayla suggested.

"That seems to be our only option for now." Kit fisto agreed. As they continued walking through the forest, Unbeknownst to them they were being followed by Some of the Onderonian Militia.

"Commander, we have spotted two refugees moving through the forest." One of the militia soldiers whispered into his comlink.

"I see, can you provide physical description." Commander Gerrera asked.

" They appear to be refugees from the Thousand Moon System One of them is a green skinned Nautolan male and the other is a twi'lek female with blue skin and lekku" the soldier replied.

"That sounds like Jedi General Kit Fisto and Jedi General Aayla Secura, I'll intercept them" Saw ordered.

"Yes sir." the soldier agreed.

"This is taking forever, Kit" Aayla groaned.

"I know, but we need to keep going." Kit fisto replied, As they continued walking.

"I think we should take a break." Aayla suggested.

"Alright, We'll rest for a bit" Kit fisto agreed. As they took a seat on a couple of fallen logs.

"Kit someone is coming." Aayla warned, As she pulled out her lightsaber and stood up.

"Don't worry it's just us." a voice called out,

"Saw Gerrera." Aayla realized.

"Indeed." Saw replied. As he emerged from the bushes.

"So, What brings you two to Onderon." Saw asked.

"We came because we're looking for allies to fight the empire." Kit Fisto answered.

"I see, Well we've been fighting off the empire's attempts already to subjugate onderon." Saw explains.

"I see, How well is that going" Kit fisto asked.

"We've been able to hold them off so far but it's probably only a matter of time, before the fights kicked out of most of the militia" Saw admitted.

"I see." Kit fisto replied,

"We might need your help." Saw suggested.

"I suppose we could do that" Aayla replied.

"Alright, Let's go." Saw decided. As he lead Kit fisto and Aayla back to the camp.

"So, what are your plans once you leave Onderon" Saw asked.

"Like Kit said before we are trying gather allies who are willing to stand up and fight against the empire" Aayla explained.

"I see." Saw nodded.

"What about you, what are you gonna do" Kit Fisto asked.

"We're going to try and continue to fight back, I can't say it's gonna be easy but we've survived worse." Saw replied.

"I see" Kit fisto nodded. As they reached the camp.

"Let's go inside" Saw suggested, As they walked into the camp and sat down near a camp fire.

"So, What do you plan to do when the empire has control of Onderon" Kit Fisto asked.

"We'll have to keep fighting back in whatever way we can, the guerilla warfare The tactics that Skywalker helped train us in how allowed us to hold off the empire so far." Saw revealed.

"I see." Kit fisto agreed.

"So, could you provide us with some insight on what exactly went down that led to Palpatine turning the republic into an empire." Saw asked.

"Well, It all started when Ankin Skywalker informed Mace Windu, Agen kolar, Saesee Tiin and I that he had figured out that the chancellor was the Sith Lord we had been looking for." Kit fisto began.

"I see." Saw replied.

"We attempted to arrest him, At first it seemed like he was going to willingly go along with the arrest but that was a ruse as soon as he got with an earshot of a detachment of the Coruscant guard that is when he told them to execute order 66. Which caused them to open fire on us and force us Agen kolar, Saesee Tiin were killed instantly From the blaster fire, while Mace and I held our ground this allowed for Palpatine to escape. And that's when things really went down hill" Kit fisto revealed.

"I see, So the republic fell pretty quickly then" Saw mused.

"Yes, I managed to get a message to Anakin who in turn contacted as many as he could reach before Palpatine initiated order 66 across the Galaxy" Kit fisto explained. As he brought his arm around Aalya's waist

"That's a good thing, What about the rest of the jedi." Saw asked.

"The temple fell, to the 501st legion, do to betrayal from within." Aayla added.

"I see." Saw nodded.

"Indeed." Kit fisto agreed.

"how many of counsel survived" Saw asked.

"Not many aside from myself Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Plo Koon, Shaak Ti, and Master Yoda." Kit fisto replied.

"So, the jedi are nearly extinct." Saw mused. The dark expression on his face

"yes, Quinlan Voss Is successful in his mission to find a way Tanalorr." Kit fisto admitted.

"I see, What about Master Kenobi." Saw asked.

"He's went to meet with Satine Kryze, They're helping prepare the Mandalorian systems for a fight against the empire." Aayla explained.

"I see, What about Skywalker" Saw asked.

"He's on Tatooine, With his wife Padme and their children, Leia and Luke." Kit fisto replied.

"I see, I thought they were just friends" Saw mused.

"They are, but they are also married." Aayla corrected.

"That makes sense." Saw agreed.

"We should probably head to bed, It's getting late" Kit fisto suggested.

"You're right, Let's go." Saw replied. As he walked into the tent.

"Goodnight, Saw." Aayla called out.

"Goodnight." Saw replied, as he entered his tent and went to sleep.

"I guess we should do the same." Kit fisto suggested.

"I agree." Aayla smiled, As they found a spot in the forest to set up camp.

"Well, This should be good enough." Kit fisto decided.

"It should be." Aayla agreed.

"Let's set up our tent, Then we'll go to sleep." Kit fisto suggested.

"Alright, Let's do it." Aayla nodded. As she helped set up their tent.

"There, We're all set." Kit fisto smiled.

"Yep." Aayla agreed, As she walked into the tent and laid down on her bed roll.

"I'll be in, in a minute." Kit fisto promised.

"Okay." Aayla replied, As Kit fisto used the force to make sure their tent was secure, before entering the tent and laying down on his bedroll.

"Goodnight, My love." Kit fisto said.

"Goodnight, Kit." Aayla replied. As they fell asleep, Intending to wake up later that evening to help saw watch over the rest of the refugees.


Meanwhile back on Koboh Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Voss had made their way through the basalt forest, Reaching the location of high Republic satellite array.

"This must be the place." Ventress mused.

"Indeed, it is." Quinlan agreed.

"that must be the the koboh matter particles." Ventress noted. Taking note of the blue particles Floating around the area.

"They appear to be." Quinlan replied.

"So, what should we do now" Ventress asked.

" I'll see if my force echo abilities See if there's any technology here that interfaces with these particles" Quinlan suggested.

"What makes you think there is" Ventress asked.

"The fact that the republic would build a satellite array in an area like this." Quinlan replied, As he used his force echo ability to try and locate something.

"I think I found something, There's some sort of sphere That's capable of generating a field When attached to another apparatus which will make it safe for us to pass through the particles" Quinlan exclaimed.

"That's good, Let's go then." Ventress agreed, As they made their way through the satelite array.

"Well, I guess this is where we start our search." Quinlan decided.

"Yep." Ventress agreed, As they began searching around the array, eventually they found one of the spheres that was emitting purple energy that seemed to be repelling the particles.

"That must be what we're looking for." Quinlan decided.

"I suppose, So what are we supposed to do with it" Ventress asked.

Quinlan place his hand on the device through usage of force echo he figured out what they were supposed to do with it.

"Alright, remember that apparatus we saw when he first entered the array, if we place the sphere into it. it'll generate a field that will cut through the hardened particles that are blocking the path to the Tower" Quinlan instructed. Through the usage of the force he lifted up the sphere with his left hand, and with a quick Force push he threw it at the apparatus it landed in the middle of it and began generating a field of energy they cut through the particles and the mass of particles that was blocking the path to the Tower.

"There, That should be it" Ventress noted.

"It seems that way." Quinlan agreed,

"Let's go." Ventress suggested. As she and Quinlan made their way to the tower.

"Alright, Now let's see what's inside of this place." Quinlan decided. As he used the force to open the door. They walked into the tower, Quinlan had a bad feeling about this.

"Asajj please tell me I'm not the only one feeling at presents somewhere up on one of the upper floors" Quinlan whispered.

"You're not, I sense it as well" Ventress agreed.

"Let's go then" Quinlan suggested. As they made their way up to the upper floor, As they reached the upper floor they noticed would look to be a massive bacta tank in the center of the room.

"What is this thing" Ventress asked.

"I don't know, But I bet it has something to do with the presence I sense" Quinlan replied, As he and Ventress approached the tank. Upon closer inspection of the tank they realize there was someone floating inside.

"By the force." Quinlan gasped.

"Is that who I think it is" Ventress asked.

"I'm not sure, but I'm about to find out." Quinlan replied, as he puts his hand on the tank mirroring the one armed individual in the tank.

"It can't be." Quinlan said, As he recognized the individual.

"Who is it" Ventress asked.

"It's Dagan Gera, and he's still alive." Quinlan revealed.

"Dagan Gera, How's it possible" Ventress asked.

"I've heard of this being done with carbonite 3000 years ago the rulers of Taris put themselves into carbonite storage when the sith Bombarded the city world, being rediscovered three centuries later by Jedi Counselor, I've never seen it done with bacta tank before" Quinlan replied.

"So, what do we do now" Ventress asked.

"I don't know. We should probably head back to your ship, An inform master Yoda of what we've uncovered" Quinlan explained.

"That makes sense." Ventress agreed. As they made their way back to their ship.


Meanwhile Kit Fisto and Aayla Secura were sitting around the fire talking with Saw Gerrera and some of his militia soldiers, When they sensed movement in the forest.

"Some one coming, small group possibly troopers." Aayla warned.

"You two need to get out of here, before they see you" Saw instructed to the to Jedi

"We'll do that" Kit fisto nodded, As they grabbed their weapons and quickly got up and ran off into the forest.

"So, what should we do" Aayla asked.

"I would like to help the militia but, we need to keep a low profile." Kit fisto replied.

"That's true, We need to keep our cover." Aayla agreed. As they hid in the bushes and watched as a group of troopers wearing what look to be phase 2 clone trooper armor but with green visors entered the camp.

"What do you think their doing" Aayla asked.

"I don't know, But whatever it is it can't be good." Kit fisto replied, As they continued to watch the interaction between Saw's militia and the imperial soldiers. The leader of the imperial soldiers had a stance that reminded them of a clone trooper that was proficient with a sniper rifle, the troopers with him didn't look as competent which could only mean that they were regular humans.

"Saw Gerrera, by the order of moff Wilhuff Tarkin ." The leader demanded.

"What's the charge" Saw asked.

"Treason, Against the empire." the leader replied.

"I see." Saw nodded.

"We have orders to take you into custody, alive" the leader informed.

"I see, What happens if I refuse" Saw asked.

"Then you will die." the leader answered.

"Alright, answer me this where are your brothers crosshair" Saw asked.

Kit and Aalya recognize the name of the clone trooper in question he was one of a group of four clones that were apart of clone Force 99 better known as the bad batch. He was known for being an extremely skilled sniper and a ruthless combatant.

"We're not here to answer your questions, Gerrera, You and your men are coming with us, Alive or Dead." Crosshair sneered.

"Very well then, If it's a fight you want then you'll get one" Saw declared. As the militia opened fire on the imperial troops.

"Come on, we need to help" Aayla decided. As she about ran out into the clearing.

"Wait." Kit fisto whisberd, as he placed a hand on her right shoulder.

"Why, We need to help" Aayla asked.

"yes, But not directly our focus needs to be on the refugees that Saw and all the shadows been protecting" Kit fisto explained. The group of refugees in question including the elderly and children.

"I see, Let's go then." Aayla agreed. As they snuck their way through the battlefield towards the group of refugees.

"Okay, We need to get everyone away from here" Kit fisto decided.

" It's gonna be tricky we're gonna have to take out the probe droids as we go" Aayla replied. As she took out Naboo royal pistol from a hidden holster, That was part of the disguise instead of her lightsaber and began picking off probe droids as they got the refugees out of harm's way.

"That should be the last of them." Aayla exclaimed. As they walked out of the forest and into the city, making their way to a lodging near the spaceport, to lie low for a few days.

"Alright, we need to figure out what we're going to do." Kit fisto decided.

"I know, But for now let's just get some rest." Aayla suggested.

"You're right, Let's go." Kit fisto agreed. As they entered one of the rooms and fell asleep.


Meanwhile back on koboh Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Voss had arrived back at the landing pad where the Banshee was parked, They quickly stepped up the boarding steps and into the ship.

"Alright, What did forse echo show you while you were in Dagen's head?" Ventress asked. As she climbed into her pilot seat.

"Well from what I was able to flee from his memories I have an idea of where we might be able to find the Abyss compass." Quinlan replied.

"I see, So where is it then" Ventress asked.

"Khri's observatory, It's somewhere in the mountain region to the west of here." Quinlan explained.

"That makes sense, Let's go then." Ventress decided. As she lifted the Banshee off the landing pad and flew to the west of the outpost.

"Do you think we'll find the compass." Ventress asked.

"I'm sure of it." Quinlan replied.

"Alright, I hope you're right" Ventress sighed, as she landed the banshee on the landing pad that was on the top level of the Observatory.

"Well, I suppose we should go inside and find the compass." Ventress decided.

"We should." Quinlan agreed, As they exited the ship and made their way into the observatory.

"This place is huge." Ventress exclaimed, As she looked around the Atrium.

"It is, If the memories I observed are correct we'll find the compass in Santari Khri work shop on one of the lower levels" Quinlan agreed.

"Alright, let's go then." Ventress decided, As they entered the turbolift that would take them to the lower level where Santari's work shop was.

"We're here." Quinlan exclaimed, As they exited the lift and entered the workshop.

"Alright, let's see if we can find anything." Ventress suggested. That's when she noticed a cylinder that was sitting on the work bench.

"Quinlan, I think I found it." Ventress called out. As she picked up the compass.

"You're right, It's exactly like the description of the compass that I saw in Dagen's memories, When he tried to take it from Santari Which is what resulted in him losing his right arm." Quinlan agreed.

"That makes sense, So what's next" Ventress asked.

"I would suggest we get back to our ship and contact Master Yoda and inform him of our success." Quinlan replied. As they made their way out of the observatory and back to their ship.

"Alright, Let's go then" Ventress agreed. As they climbed back onto the Banshee.

"I'll call master Yoda." Quinlan decided. As he brought up a Holo projection of Yoda on the holo projector in the cockpit.

"Master Yoda, We've found the Abyss Compass." Quinlan informed.

"Good, get back to polis massa you must." Yoda replied.

"There's one other thing Master Yoda, We also discovered Dagan Gera You're still alive he's currently floating in a bacta tank In the High Republic satellite array" Quinlan

"suspected, tell the whole truth Santari did not." Yoda mused

"What do you mean by that master" Quinlan asked.

"Tell you, I will when you return" Yoda replied, As he shut down the holo projection.

"Well, I guess we should head back." Quinlan decided.

"I guess so, Let's go then" Ventress agreed, As she took off the Banshee and flew Into space punching in the coordinates in the naphtha for Polis Massa, Before jumping into hyperspace.


Meanwhile back on onderon early the next morning Kit Fisto and Aayla Secura were sitting on the bed in the room they had rented from the hotel that was near the spaceport.

"So, What do you think we should do now." Aayla asked.

"I'm not sure, We need to come up with something fast." Kit fisto replied.

"I know, It just occurred to If Quinlan is successful in locating the last abyss compass then Tanalorr Could be the perfect place to take refugees who are fleeing the empire." Aayla realized.

"True, Tanalorr Is nearly unreachable without the compass, So long as we keep it out of the empire's hands the order can rebuild and protect the innocent." Kit fisto agreed.

"That's true, we might be able to use that to our advantage" Aayla suggested.

"I agree, We should also Reach out to captain Rex and inform him about the bad batch From what Saw told us it sounds like their Inhibitor chips didn't activate correctly." Kit fisto replied.

" I wonder if something was done to Crosshair to allow for the chip to assert full control, Considering he seems to be very loyal to the empire" Aayla mused.

"We can only speculate, But for now let's just get some rest." Kit fisto decided.

"You're right, Let's go." Aalya agreed, As they got up and made their way into the bathroom and took a shower before heading to bed. The very next morning Kit Fisto Took part in a holo call With the surviving Jedi Council.

"How's your search going" Plo Koon asked.

"It's going well, Aayla and I have made Contact with Saw Gerrera, His militia was protecting a group of refugees That were being haunted by the empire." Kit fisto replied.

"We also discovered the empire is already beginning the process to start phasing up clones and replace them with regular humans, Because the clone known as crosshairs was leading team of humans Who are wearing the clone trooper recon armor repainted dark gery with green visors." Aayla addded.

"I see, How's it going on Polis massa" Kit Fisto asked.

"We have some good news, Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Voss we're successful in locating the last abyss compass, But it's not the only thing they discovered." Obi-wan replied.

"What else did they discover" Aayla asked.

"Dagan Gera, Is still alive He's been in a bacta tank In the Koboh satellite array, From what I could see from Dagen's memories the two of them were extremely close which could explain why when she bisected his right arm she couldn't bring herself to kill him" Quinlan Voss Explained.

"I see, That makes sense" Kit fisto nodded.

"So, What should we do next" Aayla asked.

"Once Quinlan and asajj return from koboh, It's time we prepare to travel with the Younglings to the abandoned temple on Tanalorr." Shaak Ti replied.

"That makes sense, but who will accompany you" Aayla asked.

"Padme and I will be remaining on tattooine, When the twins are old enough we'll bring them to Tanalorr to train" Anakin revealed.

"I Will be staying with Satine, I have to take up the role of the head of house Vizla. We're also planning to take in a infant Foundling, her name is Mara Jade" Obi-Wan explained That's when the rest of the Jedi present in the call realized Obi Wan was wearing the armor of the Legendary Mandalorian Jedi Tar Vizla.

"I see, We'll also have to consider the fact that we'll also have to start making preparations for an offensive against the empire, It would also be a good place for refugees who are desperately trying to get away from the empire." Kit fisto replied.

"I agree, But for now let's just focus on the task at hand." Plo Koon agreed.

"That's a good idea, For now let's just keep up the good work." Aayla suggested.

"We should." Kit fisto nodded. As they shut down the holo projection.

"So, what should we do now" Aayla asked.

"I don't know, Let's go get breakfast then we can figure out what we should do next." Kit fisto replied.

"Alright, Let's go then." Aayla agreed, As they exited their room and made their way towards the hotel restaurant.

"I wonder what they'll have for breakfast." Aayla mused. As she and Kit fisto entered the restaurant and took a seat.

"I'm sure it will be good." Kit fisto replied. As they picked up the menu.

"What looks good to you" Aayla asked.

"I was thinking about trying the omelet with jogan fruit juice." Kit fisto replied.

"That sounds good, I think I'll try that too." Aayla decided. As a waiter walked up to their table.

"Are you ready to order" The waiter asked.

"I am, what about you Aayla" Kit fisto asked.

"I'm ready." Aayla replied.

"Alright, What would you like to order." The waiter asked.

"We'll both have the Omelet and Jogan fruit juice." Aayla ordered.

"Alright, Your food will be out shortly." The waiter replied, As he walked away.

"I wonder how long it'll take for Ventress and Quinlan to return from koboh" Kit fisto mused.

"It shouldn't be long." Aayla replied. As their waiter returned with their food and drinks.

"Here you go." the waiter said. As he placed their food in front of them.

"Thank you." Kit fisto replied, As the waiter walked away.

"This looks good." Aayla noted. As they began eating their breakfast.

"It is." Kit fisto agreed. As they continued eating, After they finished eating they made their way back to their room.

"So, what should we do now" Aayla asked.

"I don't know, Let's just watch some Holo-Vids, we still need to make sure our cover is intact." Kit fisto replied.

"Good idea." Aayla agreed. As they sat down on the bed and turned on the Holo-Vids.

"You know, I'm still worried about Quinlan" Kit fisto admitted.

"I know, But he'll be fine." Aayla replied. As they watched the Holo-Vid.


Meanwhile On Polis Massa. Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Voss had landed the banshee on the landing platform and had walked into the med-bay of the base.

"So, What are we gonna do now" Ventress asked.

"We should take the Abyss compass, And find out which one of the T-6 shuttles Will be the one that's used to get to Tanalorr" Quinlan replied.

"That makes sense, Let's go then" Ventress agreed. As they made their way out of the med-bay and to the hangar where the T-6 Shuttles were Shaak Ti Was waiting for them.

" So that cylinder is the compass?" Shaak Ti asked.

"Yes, It is" Quinlan nodded, As they entered one of the shuttles and attached the abyss compass to the nav computer.

"Alright, I will inform master Yoda that the shuttle is ready," Shaak Ti decided, before leaving she turned to Quinlan and asked him a question

"Voss, What do you intend to do will you be accompanying the rest of the order to Tanalorr, Or do you have something else in mind" Shaak Ti asked.

"I will be staying behind, I plan on to take up the role of a bounty hunter and work alongside Asajj as her partner." Quinlan replied.

"I see, That is your choice" Shaak Ti replied, As she turned and walked away.

"Alright, Now that that's done let's get back to our ship, We have a lot to do." Ventress decided. As they made their way out of the shuttle and back to their ship.

"I see, Let's go then." Quinlan agreed, As they walked up the boarding ramp and into the Banshee's cockpit.

"What should we do now" Ventress asked.

"Well, I need to Get a change of clothes." Quinlan replied, As he went to the back of the ship it opened a chest that housed the clothing And armor that Obi Wan had used when he went undercover as Rako Hardeen.

"This should work." Quinlan decided. As he dawned the Bounty Hunter attire that had once been worn by Obi Wan Kenobi he also used the refresher on the ship to quickly get a haircut to at least change his appearance enough that he wouldn't be as recognizable and so that he could wear the customized Mandalorian helmet a little bit easier.

"Now this is more like it" Quinlan decided. As he finished his transformation from Jedi to Bounty Hunter.

"Let's go then." Ventress suggested, As she started the engine on the banshee and took off from the landing pad.

"Where are we going" Quinlan asked.

"We need to head to one of the bounty hunting guild Hub, The one on Carajam could starting point." Ventress replied.

"That makes sense, Let's go then" Quinlan agreed, As they flew the Banshee to the Carajam system.


End Notes for the Chapter: As I hinted at in the previous chapters this storyline is a blend of the current Star Wars Canon with some elements pulled from the expanded universe, Considering the name drop of a certain redhead love interest of Luke Skywalker, Who for this story I decided to make a founding Who will be raised by Obi Wan and Satine, trained as both a Mandalorian Warrior and Jedi Knight. The next chapter will take place nine years into the future and we'll borrow inspiration from the Kenobi series but with a few twists involved befitting a infinity storyline.

Notes:

To answer the question of why the empire still exists even though Anakin didn't fall to the dark side I kind of figured that Palpatine being the cunning master of manipulation that he is, Would have some sort of backup plan in place to ensure the empires creation.
