Can Aayla Secura use Bodyguard and then use Lightsaber Deflect to take no damage?
No. A character can use Lightsaber Deflect only if it is hit by an attack. The Bodyguard special ability states that “if an adjacent allied character would take damage from an attack, a Bodyguard character can take the damage instead, even if it is not a legal target for the attacker.” Though the Bodyguard character takes the damage, it isn’t actually hit by the attack, so it can’t use Lightsaber Deflect.
