What if Ahsoka lived. . . but agreed to turn to the dark side?

I was sitting in my car eating lunch wondering what happened after that door closed on Ahsoka and Vader. If Vader spared Ahsoka it kinda cheapens the events of ROTJ. If Ahsoka managed to escape it kinda makes cheapens Vader's power. But Ahsoka told Vader she wasn't leaving Anakin. What if she means that she would be willing to turn to the dark side to be his apprentice?
Just asking the question wrinkled my brain and broke my heart. I refuse to believe that Ahsoka would turn but thought it an interesting possibility.




An interesting idea, and I also refuse to believe that she could be so easily turned to the Dark Side. Two of my favorite qualities that Ahsoka grew into are her self-awareness (she knows who she is and what she stands for) and her integrity (she is unwilling to compromise on her beliefs). I feel, in the same way that you feel various situations would cheapen Vader's character, that having Ahsoka choose the Dark Side would also cheapen her character.
It's not entirely outside of the realm of possibility, but I'd strongly prefer if it were.
Excellent point about Ahsoka's self-awareness and integrity. And what you said about cheapening her character is true. I'm not sure there is an ending that stays true to the characters that doesn't end in Ahsoka's death. I say that sparing Ahsoka cheapens ROTJ, but it wouldn't bother me if that's what happened somehow. I am just loving the fact that a Star Wars animated series has captured my imagination and speculation despite two Star Wars films being at various stages of production at this very moment. The Dark times seem so long ago.
While I believe that Season 2 ends with Ahsoka's death, the optimist in me wants to believe that she doesn't have to stay dead. She's already come back from the other side once before...

Yup, it's a great time to be a Star Wars fan. :)
Ahsoka goes dark right after Yoda. Never. After all she fought for during the trials being set up by Bariss. I like the theory I heard regrding Ahsoka a force spirit stuck in the Sith temple. If the dead warriors in the temple was a nod to the "Thought Bomb" from the Darth Bane books then it kinda fits in with this theory. What was confirmed by Dave Filoni himself was Ahsoka will not be seen in Rebels again.
This sounds like Mike's "Dark Side Yoda" thing...
Were this theory true, how would this work? Ahsoka just says, "Hey Skyguy, how about instead of killing me why don't I turn evil like you? Would that be okay?" "Sure thing Snips, go back in the temple and hang out until I finish with this whole rebellion thing."
