The battle cruiser was bustling with activity. There were troopers checking defensive artillery, Admiral Yularen discussing war tactics with General Kenobi and Ahsoka with Captain Rex watching the stars fly by.
General Skywalker walked the bridge, followed closely by Erika. Erika held her helmet under her arm, Master Yoda had told her to come the starship to help in the chase for General Grievous, she was helping Lieutenant Prudii track him before. She felt the stares of Clone troopers as she walked by, for they didn't know what to make of her. " Hey look! It' a Mando!" whispered one infantry trooper to another. They made their way to the Admiral and General, Ahsoka was talking to Rex, saying something about a DC-15s. They were greeted by Master Kenobi, " Well, Anakin, so nice of you to join us. And who is this?" Anakin replied, " This is General Erika..." " Please, call me by my first name." she said. " Erika, was sent by Master Yoda to help find Grievous," Anakin finished. Admiral Yularen excused himself, and Ahsoka made her way over, eying Erika suspiciously. "Greetings Erika, we will need all the help we can get finding General Grievous," said Kenobi warmly. " Thank you Master Kenobi, I hope to be of some help," Erika replied. Anakin then said, " If you will excuse us, we need to discuss some battleground tactics, while you can meet my padawan." He motioned to Ahsoka.
The two older Jedi went over to a holochart, and the two teenage girls looked at each other. " Hello, I'm Ahsoka Tano," said the girl Togruta. " I'm Erika, " replied the Mandalorian. Ahsoka asked, " How are you a Jedi already? We're about the same age." Erika explained, " Well, let's just say Mandos are quick learners."
" And how come you're a..."
"Mandalorian and a Jedi? My father is a Mando, and my Mother is a Jedi, and I guess it's kind of a weird conbanasion."
Ahsoka nodded, and said " You should meet Captain Rex, he's kinda Mandalorian."
" Yeah, the ARCs and RCs were trained by Mandos."
They talked making their way to Rex, who was busy talking to Admiral Yularen. "It's nice being able to talk to someone my age. I haven't seen any girls since Senator Amidala was kidnapped by Grievous."
Erika laughed, and the Captain turned to face them. " Ahsoka, General," he saluted. " Hey Rex, this is Erika, she's going to hep us find Grievous," she said. Rex nodded, and Erika commented on his jag eyes on his helmet he was holding. His laughed, and his skin became a darker tone. " Are you blushing? " teased Ahsoka. Rex was about to answer when they heard the Obi-wan and Anakin exclaim.
" Separatist battle cruiser exiting hyperspace near us!" Shouted Kenobi. Anakin rushed out of the command center, heading for his starfighter. The threesome looked at each other, then ran after Skywalker. Erika shouted " I'm driving!" as she clamped her helmet on. Ahsoka yelled " Shotgun!" Rex mumbled " females" under his breath as he also put his helmet on. "We heard that! " laughed Tano.
The girls jumped over a gonk droid, and dodged clone pilots. They screeched to a halt in front of a ARC-170, " You thinking what I'm thinking?" "Oh yeah!" They grinned and forced jumped to the cockpit.
