CHAPTER 1

Felucia Disaster

Aayla Secura watched a Felucian bird fly overhead. She sensed danger was coming their way. Because where there's a Felucian bird, there's usually a predator close behind. ''General Secura! '' Commander Bly shouted. ''What is it Commander? '' Aayla asked. ''General Offee and Commander Tano have gone missing!'' Bly answered. ''Where were they last seen? '' Aayla asked. ''3 miles to the east. '' Bly answered.

Aayla started walking the direction Bly had said that the two younger had last been seen. ''General, would you like us to follow you?'' Bly asked. ''No, if you come with me and leave the base unguarded the separatists will take it over, or worse.'' The Twi'lek Jedi answered.

Aayla started on the 3 mile hike to the east while Bly and the other troopers guarded the base.

''Where are you going? '' One of the 327th star corps troops asked. ''I'm worried about the general.'' Bly answered. ''I'm going to look for her.''

''She ordered us to stay here!'' the trooper shot back. ''I'm 2nd in command remember?'' Bly asked. ''She never said that!'' The trooper just wouldn't give up. ''I'm the highest ranked one here so you do what I say!'' Bly shouted

Bly headed to the east. He kept telling himself that he had his trusted blaster with him and if anything attacked him he'd be able to fight back.

-MEANWHILE-

Aayla was dueling with the bald sith witch Asajj Ventress. Soon Aayla's blue blade was knocked out of her hand. Next thing she knew, she was sitting in a stream. Aayla used one of the tactics not many Jedi knew. The tactic of using the force to make yourself invisible. She had used that tactic against Aurra Sing on Deveron.

Aayla force jumped behind Ventress and tripped her. Ventress fell into a pile of fungus .Not surprising since Felucia is a fungus planet. Ventress force pushed Aayla back into a tree. Aayla lay there unconscious. When she woke up she was in an electrical containment field next to Ahsoka Tano and Barriss Offee.
