By now, Ahsoka had gotten really tired of ice.

The younglings had entered the mouth of the cave and had been greeted by a gust of icy wind. Everything seemed to glow with a soft blue light, though the source of the illumination was unknown. The tunnels were large and cavernous, and when y/n traced his finger against the wall, the cold feeling of rock and ice responded.

"How are we going to find our crystals in this place?" he groaned internally.

Soon, they reached the edge of an ice cliff, overlooking a rocky canyon. In the distance, the younglings could see four separate entrances chiselled into the wall of the cave wall furthest from them. Each separate entrance was framed with a thick layer of carved stone.

"Well, I suppose we split up?" Leena said, unsure. The group nodded.

The question is, how do we get down there-" y/n was suddenly cut off as the cliff they were standing on collapsed with a deafening crack.

Huge chunks of ice scattered around onto the ground. The Raxshir Clan screamed as the ground beneath them became a tumbling avalanche of ice, snow and rock.

Ahsoka couldn't see anything from the ice flecks blowing into her face and scratching her skin like small, sharp claws. She felt her back being pummeled by the ice chunks and boulders, and the sound of her fellow Jedi's surprised screams echoed through the cavern.

Suddenly the yelps faded away. Ahsoka felt the avalanche that was carrying her slow down and finally stop, until the momentum that she had gathered brought her careening forward and off the bed of ice.

"Aaaaaaaaaaah! Oomph!" There was a thud as another body landed a few metres away from her. Ahsoka brushed the ice from her face and blinked hard.

To her left, the Togruta could see the outline of a figure. To her right loomed a thick wall of rock. When her eyes adjusted to the dim light, Ahsoka realised that the form beside her was y/n.

Looking around, she understood what had happened. When the ice cliff collapsed, it triggered a small avalanche that carried the younglings down and into separate entrances. It must have been the will of the Force.

Somehow, she always ended up with y/n. She wasn't complaining though, he was her best friend.

y/n stood unsteadily and brushed his cloak free of ice.

"You alright?" He asked, sensing her presence.

"Yeah, I'm fine. But my butt hurts though," she added, and was met by a laugh from her companion.

"Let's do some exploring. This must have been the will of the Force...I can feel my crystal already!" y/n announced. "Oh, and, Stripey, I'm going to find mine first," he boasted, echoing what he had said in the training room onboard the Crucible.
