Chapter 1: Ahsoka's First Day
Ahsoka stood with her school books under her arms as she stared at Shilli High. She had just gotten off the bus and was excited to begin a new chapter of her life. There were other students running and walking all over the place. Some her age, and most of them were older and there were many different species walking around as well.
She walked in through the front doors where the school's librarian Jocasta Nu was sitting at a table checking class ID chips. Ahsoka was wearing hers around her neck. Ahsoka walked right up to the table after some of the line had cleared, she had a big smile on her face. "Hi! I'm Ahsoka!" She said enthusiastically.
"Hello my dear." Jocasta Nu said. "ID chip please." She said holding out her hand.
Ahsoka took the lanyard from around her neck and gave it to Jocasta.
"Ahh, freshman huh; I certainly hope you have a great first day. If you should need help finding any of your classes, all you have to do is ask." Jocasta stated.
"Thank you!" Said an enthusiastic Ahsoka. She walked away from the check in area and looked down at her schedule. Her first class was Health with Master Fisto. "Well, I don't know what this will bring, but I'm ready." She stopped once she got into the halls and looked around for the class room numbers. She had no idea where her class was, she was already lost. She saw a group of girls talking by a group of lockers and she walked up to them to ask them.
"Umm… excuse me!"Ahsoka butted in. "Can you show me where Master Fisto's class room is?" She asked.
The girls, who were most likely sophmores, looked at the tiny freshman and turned to walk the other way.
"I know where Master Fisto's class room is." Came a calm voice from the other side of an open locker door.
Ahsoka smiled. "Thank you, I would so much appreciate it."
The locker door closed and it was a female Mirialan stood there staring at the young Togruta. "I had his health class last year, and I enjoyed it very much. My name is Barriss Windu."
"Oh, your dad must have been my brother's old pod racing coach." Ahsoka pointed out.
Barriss chuckled. "Heh heh, most likely." She said politely. "Everyone knows me by my father pretty much."
"It's okay, pretty much anyone who knows me only knows me through my brother's pod racing record anyway." Ahsoka joked.
The two girls laughed and Barriss showed Ahsoka to the class room. "By the way, what is your name anyway?" Barriss asked.
"I'm Ahsoka Tano." She responded.
"Oh, so you are related to Anakin." Barriss implied.
"See, I told you people only knew me through my brother." Ahsoka said with a smile on her face.
"Well, he was a Senior when I was a Freshman." Barriss added making it known to Ahsoka that she was a Junior.
"Well, here's his room." Barriss stated. "Maybe I'll see you at lunch?"
"I'd like that. I don't really have any friends here yet." Ahsoka mentioned being a bit vulnerable.
"Let's plan on that then." Barriss added.
"Sounds great!" Ahsoka responded with excitement.
The two girls parted ways and Ahsoka walked into the classroom and found an empty desk in the back of the room. She really wanted to sit closer to the front. She was so small that it was hard to see the holoboard.
Master Fisto then walked into the room. "Good morning everyone. I hope you all had a great summer and are all settled down and ready to begin." He stated. "This is your freshman health course, you are required to take a health class all four years of highschool."
Ahsoka was trying to see over a large male slug like kid sitting in front of her. She was still able to hear what Master Fisto was talking about and what the lesson for the day was about. She started taking notes in one of her note books that her mother had bought for her.
After she'd had a couple more classes, it was finally time for lunch.
"Finally! I'm starved." Ahsoka muttered to herself. She rushed off to the dining area hoping to find her new friend waiting at a table. She looked around but couldn't see Barriss anywhere, so she hopped in line to grab her food. 'Maybe she isn't out of class yet.' Ahsoka thought. She was really hoping this new friendship with Barriss would pan out; she really needed a good friend.
Ahsoka found a table and carried her tray of food over and sat down and looked around hoping to see Barriss. Pretty soon, on the other side of a two way wall, she could see Barriss walking to get in line; only she wasn't by herself, she was walking with a young human with shaggy hair and tan skin.
Finally Barriss and the boy joined up with Ahsoka. "Hello Ahsoka." Barriss said.
"Hey Barriss!" Ahsoka said with a cheery smile on her face. "Will you guys sit down?"
"Of course. Ahsoka, this is Boba, my boyfriend and Boba, this is Ahsoka Tano; my new friend that I met today."
Ahsoka smiled at Boba and shook his hand. "It's nice to meet you Boba." Ahsoka said.
Barriss and Boba both joined Ahsoka with their lunches as well. Barriss was picky with her lunch, so she generally packed lunch instead of taking a chance on what the school was preparing. This always made Ahsoka laugh. Ahsoka, being Togrutan, was a strict carnivore and was happy as long as there was meat involved in her lunch.
Boba looked at Ahsoka with curious eyes. "So, are you related to Anakin Tano? He's legendary at this school for pod racing." Boba mentioned.
Ahsoka glared at Barriss.
Barriss elbowed Boba. "Hey, that's not nice Boba. She doesn't need to follow in her brother's footsteps." Barriss insisted.
"I didn't mean anything by it." Boba covered. "I was just curious, I mean, he is a legend after all."
Barriss just gave him a sharp displeased look.
Ahsoka who was a little more at ease with the question finally spoke. "Yes, I am the sister of Anakin pod racer Tano. I often just call him Skyguy. He loves flying, in fact, that's how he actually won several pod races." She mentioned with a smile on her face.
"Wow! That's so cool. My brother was actually in Anakin's graduating class. They actually hung out all the time after school. Perhaps you know him, Rex?" Boba mentioned.
"Oh yes, I've definitely seen Rex around the house. You're his brother?" Ahsoka asked.
"I'm one of his many brothers." Boba chimed with a huge grin on his face.
Barriss then smiled at their conversation.
They all sat in silence for a moment eating. Shortly Barriss piped up. "So how were the rest of your morning classes?"
"Oh, they weren't too bad, I had a hard time in health because I sat behind a rather large guy. But I also had Navigation which should be a fun class in the long run i think, and after lunch I have a math class with Master Secura. I have no idea what that class will be like." Ahsoka said.
"Oh, Master Secura, she's a tough instructor but a great one none the less. I've had her for a calculations class and that was really tough." Barriss informed.
"I've had her for the same math class two years in a row." Boba jokingly stated.
Ahsoka chuckled at the joke and so did Boba.
"The sad thing is, he's not kidding, he really had the same math class with her both his freshman and sophmore years." Barriss imformed.
Boba looked at Barriss with some embarrassment as he was not trying to make himself look stupid as she seemed to. But they both soon started laughing again.
Ahsoka got off of the bus and headed up the lane and into the house where her father was doing dishes from that morning's breakfast. "How was your first day little soka?" He asked.
Ahsoka looked up at Plo with a bit of excitement in her eyes and a smile on her face. "Oh, it was great!" She said with excitement. "I already met a new friend, well, maybe two new friends but they are both Juniors which I guess means they will be graduating next year." Ahsoka said with a bit of sadness.
Plo looked down at her and put his hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry Little Soka, you have plenty of time to become friends with students your own age before they graduate. Besides, once they do graduate, it doesn't mean that you won't be friends with them anymore." Plo assured her.
She looked back up at her father with a new smile on her face. "That's true." She said with gladness. Then she ran off to her brother's room who's door was shut. Ahsoka knocked on the door. "Anakin" she taunted.
Without opening the door, he yelled, "What do you want Snips?"
"I met Rex's brother today." Ahsoka informed him.
Anakin came to the door and opened it a crack, just enough to see the huge smile on her small framed face. "Really? Which one?" Anakin asked.
"It was Boba." She said with a bit of a snarky attitude.
Anakin looked a tad bit disgusted. "Oh, Boba; that brother." He said with little to no excitement in his voice.
"What's wrong with Boba?" Ahsoka asked.
"Oh, nothing too bad, it's just that, he spent so much time hanging around me and Rex when we used to go out for pizza." Anakin informed her.
"Oh." Ahsoka said. "That seems like a stupid reason to be annoyed with him." Ahsoka stated.
"Well, it was just a little annoying, that's all. Now if you don't mind Snips, I'm trying to have a phone conversation with my girlfriend." Anakin said as he shut the door.
Ahsoka went back into the living room and turned on the TV to catch the latest episode of her favorite show. She sat on the couch with her legs close to her chest and her arms wrapped around her knees and was watching intently. She was waitin for her mom to get home so she could tell her about her first day of high school went.
Shaak, Ahsoka and Anakin's mother, worked at a sacred temple where she worked as a security official. In fact, she was head of the security detail. She was generally the last one home for the evening.
Plo was the cook in the house. He always used the grill to prepare some tasty dish.
Ahsoka loves her father's cooking and she could smell the brats cooking on the grill, she knew dinner was almost ready and that her mom would be home soon.
Pretty soon, she heard the front door open and there stood Shaak who first walked over to Plo and they kissed each other hello.
"Hello my dear." Plo said to his wife. "Ahsoka, can you get your brother? Dinner is ready." He said.
Ahsoka jumped off the couch and ran to Anakin's closed door. "Hey Skyguy, dinner's ready!" She said with excitement and then ran back to the dining room.
She ran up and hugged Shaak and Shaak hugged her back.
"So, how was your first day sweetheart?" Shaak asked her daughter.
A big smile came across Ahsoka's face before she answered. "It was great! My math class may be tough, but the others should be good!" She responded with much excitement.
Shortly after they'd finished their conversation, Anakin walked into the dining room and they all sat down at the table and ate dinner as a family.
