Seeing how gifted she was, Master Plo was given permission by Ahsoka's clan and brought the young child to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi. Ahsoka woould grow up to become the apprentice of Anakin Skywalker at the beginning of the Clone Wars against the Separatist Alliance.
