Rating: R for later chapters
Category: adventure/ romance

Authors note: Count Dooku starts kidnapping force sensitives in order to combat the Jedi. He takes them from uncharted worlds, that aren't part of the republic. Set during and after episode 2 during clone wars. Apologies to anyone out there that believes in alien abduction.
Character note: I tried my best not to make the main characters into Mary sues, but I fear they are slightly sorry. George Lucas' characters were so black and white on the good evil concept that I wanted to show what's in the middle. My main characters are witches from our world. The main one Isis is similar to willow from Buffy the vampire slayer. The later seasons 6 and 7. Except more confident. I also took some inspiration from the craft and some of George Lucas' extended universe.
Chapter 1 of
I'm what you would call average. I live in the suburbs in California. I attend high school, I have close friends. I weigh about 140lbs. I have red hair and blue eyes .Of course that's where average ends, see my friends and I are practicing wiccans. Witches to everyone else. I am a guardian, a member of a secret society that defends all that you see from what you don't see.
My friends make up my coven, first there Chani she practices more oriental parts of the craft and is half Asian with the typical dark hair and eyes and the skinny build. Then there is Kira, the quiet thinker who loves technology. She has brown hair and brown eyes she wears glasses. She's trying to find a way to mix the craft with more modern tools.
Then there's Petra, who's basically a dunce but she has quite a talent as a channel. She's a petite blond with green eyes and looks more like the cheerleader set, than one of us. Then of course my name how silly I'm Isis my specialty is the more ancient forms of magic. I incorporate forms from several cultures from Celtic/fae to Sumerian. I'm also their high priestess and their leader. The youngest in our tradition to hold that title, my teacher was a guardian named Lisa. When she died I, inherited her position. And her book of shadows.
We've practiced together since, well since grade school. Fortunately our parents were also in the community so our dabbling was watched and encouraged, so was our friendship. It's almost as though our parents realized that we were a set. Well enough of the introductions you came here for a story well here goes.
The day started like any other with the alarm clock going off and me hitting snooze. Then going off three more times before I rolled my lazy ass out of bed. First I headed to the bathroom used it then splashed water in my face. Ignoring my baby brother banging on the door cause he really had to go. Then headed back to my room to get ready for school I pulled open my closet door, hmmm decisions black or black.
I grabbed one of my more renaissance style dresses that was basically gray and black. Ran a quick brush through my hair, secured it with a hair clip because I didn't have time for anything else. Thanks to ignoring the alarm, I grabbed a pop tart as I ran for the front door.
Just in time to see Kira pull up to the house in her car, she was a few months older than me. Needless to say she was in a hurry to get her drivers license. Especially since her parents' said they'd help her with the purchase by cosigning and coming up with the other half of the down payment. Which Kira did work her butt off to get, during the whole summer. Was kind of annoying because we couldn't hang out as much, but it did make us appreciate those times when we could just cast a circle together or just talk.
Then our lives were abruptly changed, and we never saw it coming. I mean alien abduction is something you read about in a tabloid. Not something you could ever think would happen to you. I mean it was like someone dying of frostbite in the desert. Totally unrealistic and so not expected.
Well it happened like this I came home from school like I normally did letting my self in the door. I waved goodbye to my friends and signed that I would call them. Then I went inside. The house was deserted of course it usually was at this hour. I dumped my book bag by the couch as I headed for the kitchen. I grabbed a soda from the fridge and a Twinkie from the cupboard. Headed for the stairs grabbing my bag as I walked bye. Might as well start on that damn algebra homework. I think as I begin the climb to the top of the stairs.
I walked into my room and plop down on the desk chair. I pulled my bag up to my lap and unzipped it pulled my book and notebook out. Sighed praying I'd get interrupted because I really despise doing it. As if on cue or answer to a prayer Kira called. I dropped my book literally and rushed for the phone.
"Hey what's up?" I ask. "Nothing much here, hey have you heard from Chani she was supposed to email me those lit notes?"
"no why I haven't made any phone calls yet?" I answer "cause I just called over there and got her voice mail" said Kira. I frowned that was unusual, when Chani got home the first thing she did was head for the phone or her workshop. "Did you try the work shop number?" I asked figuring she was probably engrossed in something.
"Yea that's why I called I got no answer and I must've let it ring about 20 times." she said. The phone admitted a brief chirp indicating someone was on the other line. "Hold on I have someone on line two" I said. I put Kira on hold and hit the call-waiting button. It was Petra on the other line "oh hi pet what's going on". I hear a pause as though she was really trying to figure what was going on.
"Pet it's a figure of speech" I said "oh, o ok" I heard her answer. "So why'd you call?" I asked "cause I can't get a hold of Chani, is she over there?" "No I've got Kira on the other line hold on we'll conference" I said now I was beginning to worry.
"Ok you all here?" I asked "yeah" answered Kira "yep" said Petra. "When did you last hear from her? I asked "when I dropped her off at her house" "did anything feel wrong" asked Petra. Kira paused thinking about the statement. After a few moments of silence we became anxious. "Well" I prompted, "maybe we should go check on her?" said Petra.
I frowned there was some sort of interference on the phone making a weird humming noise. Ok we'll meet at Petra's since she's around the corner from Chani's anyway" "damn is that your phone making that noise, Kira?" I asked.
"I don't know I thought it was yours," she answered. "Oh well, we'll see you over there" I told Kira and then hung up. If I had stayed talking to her a few more moments I would have known what was happening. Instead I went downstairs and grabbed my cloak off the coat rack. Heading out the door. I waited outside for Kira to come get me. I should have taken ten minutes. I waited for twenty then decided to walk.
I walked down the street towards Kira's since Kira lived nearer to me. I turned up her walkway noticing her car was still in the driveway. That's odd I thought she left already. I walked up on her porch and went to ring the doorbell. Then I noticed the doorknob and area surrounding it were gone. They looked as though they had been burned off. I pushed on the door and it gave. The place was an absolute shambles and some of the furniture was rumble. I backed towards the door slowly then I heard a weird noise it sounded like gurgling I looked to where the noise was coming from, the den. I hesitantly pushed the door open and screamed. Kira's dad was on the floor apparently dieing with what looked like a gaping hole in his side
. I grabbed his cell phone off the charger and started dialing 911 then I heard a weird noise and I booked it out of the room I headed for the kitchen and paused by their dining room table. I had the operator send an ambulance to the house. They tried to get me not to hang up but I had to call Petra. I dialed her number with shaking hands "where are you two, it's cold out here" she said "I'm over at Kira's, something's happened" "what happened?" Petra asked, "Kira's dad is dead and I can't find Kira." I said
Petra paused on the other end.
"Get out of there" she said. Just then the door to the kitchen swung open and a creepy looking dude dressed in armor stepped through. I panicked when I saw he was armed with some sort of weird gun I ran for it grabbing Kira's keys as I ran for the door.
Something sizzled over my head as I flung the door open .I booked it across the lawn slipped and felt heat over my head .I scrambled to my feet and slammed open the car door. I jammed the keys into the ignition and turned it over. I slammed it into reverse and peeled out of the driveway. Not once did I think I'm not even licensed to drive and I really don't know how.
I spun around the corner went two blocks and turned on Petra's street she was sitting outside. I sighed in relief. I rolled down the window and yelled for her to get in. "why are you driving Kira's car?" she asked. "There's no time for that just get in" I said "Isis she's gonna be pissed if you took her car" she said as she got in. "I know but she's missing too" I said, "We just talked to her" said Petra. As she climbed into the car
"Well when I got to her house she was gone and her dad was dead on the floor." I answered. "Oh!" said Petra her eyes widening in horror. "Also there was someone there when I was leaving, I think he shot Kira's' dad" I said "Was he wearing some kind of funky armor and a jet pack?" she asked "yeah why?" I said dreading her answer "cause he's following us" she said
I adjusted the rear view mirror and looked behind me, sure enough there he was. "Ah shit!" I said " can you lose him" she said as she put on her seat belt. I buckled up one handed and floored it towards the nearest on ramp. I shifted and heard the gears shriek in protest why did she have to buy a stick shift. I accelerated even more as I reached the freeway itself, weaving my way through traffic the guy was still behind us.
"We need to do something," she said "Like what?" "Something to knock him out of the sky." said Petra "I can't do it and drive at the same time," I said as I changed lanes to avoid being stuck behind a semi.
Hey this driving thing really wasn't that hard I was thinking. When the car shuddered and started to go sideways out of control. Then we were flipping Petra screamed and then we came to a stop. Then darkness descended.
Fett watched the young girl run towards some sort of primitive ground vehicle. Get in the drivers seat and pulled out of the driveway. He would have shot her but the bounty had specified alive and unharmed. So he followed till he realized that they actually might get away. So he aimed his shot at the vehicle he wasn't expecting it to flip. He cursed himself for foolishness, praying that the marks were unharmed.
He landed next to the damaged vehicle and looked at the occupants. They were still breathing one was bleeding from a cut on her forehead. He called his ship with his wrist com and pulled open the door through one of them over his shoulder carried a few feet from the vehicle, which was beginning to show signs of bursting into flame.
He then went back for the other one; he had to bust the glass to reach her and dragged her from the drivers seat. His ship touched down and he carried the girl aboard set her down and went back for the other. After they were both securely fastened in and bound tightly he locked them in a small cell he used to hold prisoners. Then walked towards the cockpit, put the ship in stealth mode and flew off. He went into hyperspace the second he left the atmosphere. Charting a course for Genosa. It took him two days to get there even at his fastest speed.
Isis woke up to someone shaking her, she moaned and rolled over. "Isis wake up!" said a familiar voice. She opened her eyes to find Petra crouched over her. In the other corners were her friends. Chani was crying, Kira was trying to calm her down.
