What if Ahsoka Tano AND Anakin Went to Umbara
Hope you enjoy the What if Wednesday Video!
What if Ahsoka Tano JOINED Anakin and Krell on Umbara? Let's explore the depths of this scenario in the video.
Ahsoka, Captain Rex, and the 501st watch as Anakin's gunship departs for Coruscant, leaving them under the command of General Pong Krell. The hulking Jedi wastes no time, ordering the 501st to break camp and begin marching towards the Umbaran capital to take it head-on.
Krell sets a difficult pace, marching through the night across jungles and rocky terrain. Rex suggests they rest before continuing the advance, but the Jedi Master remains adamant that they continue their march.
Ahsoka: Master, with all due respect, the clones won't be any good if they're dead on their feet. We've already crossed the roughest terrain.
Krell looks over at her, slightly surprised. Then, he dismisses Rex and approaches her.
Krell: Padawan, I understand that my leadership is different from General Skywalker, but we are at war. This battle can only be won with discipline and decisive action. That will require making some changes to how we do things.
Ahsoka: I understand that, master. But they're still only human.
Krell: Do you, Padawan? This isn't some simple scuffle with pirates and mindless droids. We face a foe who is intelligent and dangerous. To defeat them, we must be prepared to risk their lives and accept that many of them may not return. Is that something you are willing to accept?
Ahsoka: Hesitates. Yes, master.
Krell: Very well, they rest for a bit. But then have CT-7567 lead the advanced guard in three hours.
Hours later Rex and a platoon of clones advance down the main road. The rest of the unit remains behind with Krell commanding reserves. However, Rex's unit soon comes under fire as hundreds of Umbarans pour out from the jungle or on the streets.
They leap from the trees and snipe at clones while artillery fire rains down on them from hidden tanks and fighters. Ahsoka prepares to help them, but Krell pulls her back.
Krell: We are not soldiers like these clones, we're Jedi. Leave the fighting to them and focus on leading.
Rex manages to rally his troops and retreats to find a better position. Seeing this, Krell is infuriated and orders the rest of the unit to support them.
Once the Umbarans are driven back, Krell berates Rex for his failures and even threatens Fives when he criticizes that plan. Ahsoka is unable to bring herself to remain silent
Ahsoka: Master, we lost a lot of troopers in that attack. Without anything to show for it. Maybe it's time we reevaluate our strategy. We might not be soldiers, but we are protectors of life. All life.
Krell looks at Ahsoka, then at the troopers. He then concedes to Rex and Ahsoka's points, saying that their opinions have been noted. Suddenly, blaster fire and artillery burst out from the roads as the Umbarans resumed their attack. While General Krell heads to the rear lines, Ahsoka finally joins the battle.
She leaps onto a ruined AT-RT and blocks the incoming blaster fire. Even as artillery rains all around her, she remains where she is and allows the wounded to escape.
Umbaran starfighters begin emerging from the forests and rain fire on them. Ahsoka's eyes widen and leaps back just as a missile nearly hits her. She watches in horror as clones are tossed aside.
The anger builds up in her and when one fighter gets too close, she slams it into a tree using the Force. The fighter goes up in a pillar of flames and forces the others to back off, giving the clones a moment's reprieve.
That's all they need as a message from Obi-Wan orders them to retreat and capture a nearby airbase to prevent the capital from receiving any reinforcements. The 501st manages to withdraw, heading to the relative safety of the jungles.
Despite just coming from a battle, Krell refuses to let up and continues to push the 501st, marching to the air base. This time, Ahsoka insists on supporting the attack against the airbase, Krell has a different job for her.
He says he's received intelligence that some of the defeated Umbaran troops from the initial battle have regrouped and now threaten their rear. Ahsoka is to take several squads and prevent them from outflanking them.
Although reluctant to leave Rex and Fives, she sees the danger. Ahsoka's unit marches through the forest they had just come from, using Krell's intel of the Umbaran's last known location.
As they march, Ahsoka sees how many soldiers they lost and feels the frustration building in her. This type of conflict stirs different emotions in her, anger, frustration, and doubt. They're not just directed at the Umbarans, but also at Krell. While Anakin's tactics were often daring and risky, he at least shared the burden with his troops. Whenever the fighting starts, Krell is nowhere to be seen.
They head deeper into the forest and find small pockets of Umbarans who quickly fall to them. Those who don't are quickly driven back. However, Ahsoka remains
