Rexsoka

Rexsoka is the het ship between Ahsoka Tano and Captain Rex from the Star Wars: The Clone Wars fandom.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars
As Anakin and Ahsoka meet Rex, Rex tells Anakin what he's seen. He then notices Ahsoka and asks who she is. Ahsoka introduces herself as Anakin's Padawan, leaving Rex confused since Anakin said that he didn't want a Padawan. Anakin says that there's been a mix up, but Ahsoka says "You're stuck with me, Sky-Guy!" making Rex laugh. Anakin decides that Ahsoka needs to learn respect and tells Rex to teach it to her. Rex tells her to follow and the two head down to their weapons.

As they walk along the infantry, Ahsoka suggests moving the front line back a bit for cover. Rex thanks her for the suggestion, but says that Anakin think's they're fine where they are. Ahsoka asks if he's a Captain and she's a Jedi if that means she outranks him. Rex says that to him, experience outranks everything. Ahsoka says if that's true, then she better start getting some. They then both here a noise and see the droid army marching forward. Rex see's the energy shield, which will make it almost impossible to stop the droids. He tells Ahsoka that if she wants experience, she's about to get plenty.

R3-S6
DUEL OF THE DROIDS

As Ahsoka and the clones reach a locked door, she tells R3 to unlock it for them. Rex says that it'll be good, annoying Ahsoka for insulting R3. As the droids march closer, Rex asks if R3 is going to get the door open soon, but Ahsoka just says that he's working on it and that Rex needs to be patient. The droids then see them and Rex decides that they've run out of time, and they fight the oncoming droids.

Ahsoka is able to lead Grievous away from the knocked out clones, when she gets a transmission from Rex. He informs her that's there's only two of the clones left, and asks if the should abort the mission. Ahsoka tells him to complete the mission, and he starts to protest but she tells him that it's an order. She then ends the transmission.

Blue Shadow Virus
MYSTERY OF THE THOUSAND MOONS

A droid sets off the final bomb, putting the bunker on alert as the virus sweeps through. Rex yells that they need to get to the safe room, and Ahsoka and the other clones follow. They reach it, but the doors are closing fast. Ahsoka uses the force to hold them open, and tells Rex and the others to get inside. Once inside, Rex tells her to hury and she dives in just as the virus reaches them.

One of the clones discovers that the virus got into the room, and they're now infected. Rex says that they may be dying, but they can still fight the droids. Ahsoka tells him not to worry, and believes that Anakin will find a cure for the virus. They're not dead yet.

Ryloth
STORM OVER RYLOTH

Ahsoka enters the bridge, and Rex tells the men to stand at attention. Ahsoka tells them not to and walks up to the hologram station. Rex says that Anakin is calling her, and puts him on screen. They have a quick conversation, and Rex tells Ahsoka to fill the men in on the plan.

She goes over the plan, which Rex calls questionable. Ahsoka says that with the general and main battleship destroyed, the droids will be in chaos, but Rex says that's only temporary. They'll also have to find Anakin in all the chaos. Rex says that the odds are stacked against them, and Ahsoka says that they always are.

The other clone asks how they're meant to take out the remaining ships, and Ahsoka says that she's thought of it. Rex tells her to go ahead, and Ahsoka explains her plan. Rex takes it into consideration but the other clone is quick to shoot it down. The Admiral comes in to support her plan, and they set it into motion. Ahsoka says that they'll need to use the chaos after the ship crashes to get Anakin, and that she'll be leading the bomber's attack. Rex agree's and supports her command.

Return to Genosis
LEGACY OF TERROR

Rex escorts Barriss and Ahsoka to the ship, and Ahsoka apologizes for leaving him there with so much to do. Rex says that they've done enough, and tells them to get some rest. Barriss says that they'll be back and get on the ship.

Quotes
"Great job, General Skywalker. You too kid."

- Rex; Star Wars: The Clone Wars

"Ah well, little’un,” said Rex with his most sardonic grin. "This is the life. isn’t it? This is what we signed up for. Hurry up and wait. Long stretches of boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror." Leaning forward again, he patted her on the knee.

"So I say we play darts. What d’you reckon?"

And there was her heart, breaking all over again for love of him. Such a decent man, he was. She bounced to her feet, determined not to disappoint him.

-Clone Wars: Gambit Siege Novels, Page 49 by Karen Miller
