I look around the wreckage and sprint toward it from my speeder. My dirty white cloak whips behind me. I lift up my goggles and look around.There must be something salvageable here. I thought to myself. That was a bad crash it did a few minutes ago, and who are they that jumped off the ship before it crashed all the way?

I tighten my satchel across my chest then prepare to jump. I jump up and land with my right leg bent and my left straight out onto a ledge far up.Hopefully the bridge has some scavengable parts. I hear and feel someone coming toward me. I crouch behind a broken wall stump and look at them.

Two people come toward me, both have lightsabers. One is bald, his skin a deep brown color and is wearing light brown colored clothing. The other has messy brown hair and is wearing dark clothing. "You encourage it too much." Replied the dark brown skinned one. "R8, start scanning the area for signs of life. And calculate an entry point to the cruiser."

I hear beeps as a response. I look ahead of the brown man and see a robot, I'm guessing the R8 unit and look behind the other man and see another droid that looks like R8. "Your right, R2. It doesn't look good." I feel a creature in the distance behind the two men. The blue robot, R2, beeps.

"A bit jittery isn't it?" The brown skinned one asks.

"He must have seen something."

"Come on. It looks like R8 has found an entry point." They start walking to my position and I gulp. I can feel the force strong around them. Wait, if I can feel them then that means they could possibly feel me. Hopefully they don't. I thought to myself fearfully. I don't want to be a pawn to Count Dooku like he tried before. Well, they aren't necessarily working for him. They could be Jedi.

"There would have been a command crew left aboard to try and land this ship, Admiral Kilian and then at least three navigational officers."

"Commander Ponds stayed as well." R8 starts beeping frantically. R2 then joins in in the beeping. "What is it R8?" I grit my teeth together. "Do you feel that?" The brown one looks around after seeing his companion nod. After a little they look up to where I'm hiding. "Come out to where we can see you."

I swallow the lump in my throat then back away from the wall. I then jump over it and somersault and land on the ground in front of them. "Who are you?" The companion asks. I push my hood back and quickly put my waist long blonde hair in a ponytail.

"I could ask you the same thing. I'm Iko Kryze, originally from Mandalore but when my family was taking me to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant with a Jedi that found out I was when he was visiting, we were shot down by pirates. I...I was the only one to survive. How about you?" I ask.

"I am Mace Windu." The brown skin one said. "And this is Anakan Skywalker." We came here to see if there was any survivors on this ship." He pointed to the ship behind me.

"How long have you been here? Also, your force sensitive?" Anakin asked.

"For about give or take 10 years. The crash was when I was only 5. And yes." I replied. "I've survived here from scavenging parts from ships and taking them to a market to get credits for food. It's not much but I live." I say shrugging.

"Why haven't you tried sending a distress call out?" Mace asked.

"I figured after a few days they heard about my family's death and assumed they probably assumed I was dead with them. And...I didn't know if I'd survive this."

"How about this, after we finish looking around the ship for survivors we'll take you back to Coruscant and make you a Padawan. You seem to have the skills down." Anakin replied putting a hand on my shoulder. I nod agreement to them.

"Come on." Mace said waving us forward. "Let's see if there's any survivors." We walk into the ship and look around the wreckage. R2 moves away from Anakin and starts beeping. They almost sound depressed.

"What did you find, little guy?" Anakin walks over to R2 while he's beeping. "Mace, Iko over here!" We head over to them and see what they find. Mace walks up to the trooper and flips him over.

"Hmm. This man did not die in the crash. He was executed" R8 beeps and bumps into Anakin's legs. I continue to look at the trooper. Did those people who jumped did this? I thought. They were definitely not with the Republic, they were dressed like bounty hunters.

"There's another one over here. Same thing." Anakin states.

"We know the assassins were after me. Perhaps they returned to look for my body." Mace says standing up. "We need to get to the bridge and find Admiral Kilian. Send the droids to scan for any survivors down here. Maybe the killers missed one. Iko, you're coming with us." I nod and follow Mace to a shaft. We look back toward Anakin.

He is kneeling by the droids. "I know there's a lot of interference, but do your best." He tells the droids, his hand on R2.

"Skywalker!" Mace shouts. Anakin looks at us then pats R2 before coming over to us. Anakin gets ready to climb up.

"Why don't I go first? I've been in ships like this before and can tell if they're stable or not." I suggest. They nod and Anakin gets out of the way. I go to the ladder and bend my knees. I then jump up to a ledge then jump up again till I'm at the bridge. I land in a crouch and look around. "It's safe!" I yell down to them. I look down and see them start climbing.

Wires and controls are sparking all around me. When the other two get up we start to walk over slowly. Leaning to the right to keep our balance. We see people on the ground. I look and see they all have black marks on them and I gasp.

"They're dead. Executed like the troopers below." Mace said kneeling down.

"But I don't see Admiral Kilian or Commander Ponds." Anakin replies looking at Mace. I look around the bridge and see control panels in different states of destroyed.

"They must have been sucked into space when the cabin lost pressure." Mace says sadly. He then opens a comm link to somewhere. "Captain, there's no sign of any life down here. Although we meet a young girl here who is force sensitive. I'm afraid Admiral Kilian and Commander Ponds are lost. Take the survivors back to the hospital station. We'll meet you there. Mace out."

"Captain Silver out." The transmission then ended there. We continue to look around and hear the flames outside crackling. I went to the control panels and look through it seeing if there was anything salvageable. Anakin starts in surprise and we look and see a helmet that looks vaguely familiar to me.

"Is that a Mandalorian helmet?" Anakin asks, he walks over to it. "What is that doing here?" I hesitantly start walking forward top. Mace kneels beside a dead man, presumably a navigator.

"Clone cadets." Wait, all these men are clones? Wait I remember hearing about the senate talking about getting Clones from Kamino. "Jango Fett." Anakin continues walking to the helmet. "Boba!" Anakin starts picking up the helmet. "Anakin, no!" Right as Anakin picks it up we hear beeping. "Drop it!" Both Mace and I pull Anakin back as he drops the helmet.

Right then it exploded.
