Skirmish on Zatner (AW)

Ahsoka Tano, which was the Republic negotiator, and her s escort, were attacked by s; immediately s disabled the Alderaan, the used to reach Zatner, and s attacked the s escort.

Thanks Z-95 Headhunters, survived against the first wave of droid fighters, the landing craft was heavily damaged, preventing other droids to disembark, and also two s were destroyed.

The arrival of other vulture droids caused the elimination of all Alliance ships. Ahsoka and clone troopers kept their position, although the numeric inferiority; meanwhile she sent a message to Alliance task force waiting to enter Zatner Route just after the treat. Remaining droid fighters attacked the clones, and Tano was obliged to stop defending her escort in order to destroy vulture droids, as she was the only who could do it.

When Ahsoka touched ground again, she was basically alone against about twenty battle droids. She escaped trying to not get hurt and jumped from the platform, falling in a river. She decided to hid until the arrival of Task Force Enigma, and so found an hideout and refuged there.
