hey everyone, welcome back! I had SO MANY requests to upload the sequel, so here it is! enjoy!
My heart was pounding, my head was spinning, and my feet were aching. The damp smell of dirt and rock filled my nose. Pounding of feet dazed my vision. A girl's screams filled the caves.
Her name is Beca. She is my closest friend, to be honest, she's the only one I got. Living in the darkness doesn't provide you much friends. She was a slave, just like me. Only, she was a slave for 3 years and I was a slave for 5.
I quickened my pace and ran towards the screams. The pirates followed close behind. The only way both of us were escaping is if I exposed my identity and my secret.
My lightsabers hung loosely at my waist and my cape flew behind me as I ran. I could barely see anything in the darkness, but living underground for a year made seeing underground easier.
I heard her screams again, and this time accompanied by a plea for help. I ran as fast as I could, trying desperately to save her. If she died, I would probably go insane down here alone.
The screams stopped and I could sense her defeat. She had given up and let the pirates take her away, she would regret that later. I couldn't let them take her, not without a real fight.
I turned a corner and saw them dragging her. Her body pulled loosely on the rocks, a trail of blood following behind.
I peered behind me and saw the pirates not too far behind. Even if I was only 16, and was living in a cave with barely any food, I was still a lot faster than them. I heard the clicking of blasters loading and figured that was my cue.
"Hey! Over here dirt for brains!" I yelled to the men dragging Beca.
They turned and looked at me, both pulling out their guns. The pirates behind me did the same and fired rapidly towards me. Luckily I jumped just in time for the shots to hit their own. The two men slumped to the ground and dropped Beca with a thud.
"Beca!" I yelled.
She opened her eyes slowly and noticed my situation. Being the girl she is, she smirked and pulled a gun on the pirates following me. They all stopped and laughed.
"You think, a little girl and a young boy will kill ALL of US." A pirate yelled, the men and woman cheered behind him and laughed some more.
"So, you want a challenge?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
He smirked and spat at the ground in front of me.
"As if you would be worth a challenge." He said.
I laughed and looked behind me at beca, she had a massive grin on her face and a hint of a pitiful smirk. She knew I was not the one you wanted to fight. Ever.
"Alright," I say "you keep thinking that, but, I'll let all of your people go if you back down now."
He laughed again and pretended to cower.
"Oh please, don't hurt me!" he said in a mocking girl's voice.
I chuckled and looked back at Beca who nodded. "Okay, your loss than."
I reach for my sabers and pull them in front of my body. I saw the smiles on the pirates faces fade and some took a step back.
My two blades ignited and I took a fighting stance. My forum of fighting changed over the year. I had adopted the technique of using them backwards (just like Ahsoka did) I found it easier to block shots and to cut through rock and metal.
I would practise every day to improve my lightsaber fighting. Meditating and having Beca shoot stuns at me were a popular choice as well.
This was going to be simple fight, block lasers, cut pirates in half, and send them running like 3 year olds. The usual. Let's just hope none of them knew or would tell the ghost crew about me still being alive.
