...and the sound of her blood pumping through her ears was loud. Jedi didn't run, but sometimes a tactical retreat was necessary. It was exceedingly necessary now, due once again to Anakin's impulsiveness. Ahsoka was fond of her Master and was grateful for his eventual acceptance of her as his Padawan, really she was. But by the Force, if he didn't start listening to her...
Ahsoka stamped down the anger that threatened to overtake her. Now was not the time to fume over Anakin's irritating inability to take her advice, as the smattering of blaster fire that whizzed past reminded her violently. Now was the time for running, as she and Anakin tried to get away from the insane number of assorted battle droids that were rapidly converging on their six.
It was supposed to have been an undercover mission; a quick in-and-out job that required the Master-Padawan team to plant locator beacons throughout the hidden droid factory. The facility was being masked by a holo-emitter, tricking those outside into thinking that the rolling hills of the planet's landscape had never been molested by the CIS for such a nefarious purpose. Taking out the holo-emitter would have been too obvious, and the chance for failure should the sabotage be discovered was high. The plan was to hide the locator beacons at various points so that the sensors on Obi-Wan's flag-ship could get the rough size and shape of the complex, and then carpet-bomb it into oblivion from space. And it had been going so well, too.
Somehow, however, they had managed to trip a silent alarm, and Anakin had decided that melting the console with his 'sabre would shut it off. Ahsoka had protested, insisted, even, that they simply leave the same way they had come in: quietly.
Destroying that console has turned on every single droid in the joint and now Ahsoka was forced to dodge blaster fire instead of renegotiating the air vents to get to the ship. Anakin was so going to get a scathing "I told you so!" if they survived this, but first Ahsoka had to dodge a battalion of SBDs that had just materialized in a side-corridor...
