Star Wars VII- Battel of the Worlds
"ANAKIN! WOULD YOU PLEASE HURRY UP?" I called into the back room.
"Sorry….. I was just trying to clean up, Ishayko." He said.
"Well, we have costumers, and I need to try and find the part their looking for. Take care of anything else they need, Anny." I said to my adopted brother.
"OK." He agreed. "Hi, I'm Anakin Skywalker. That was my almost sister Ishayko. But she goes by Shay. I'm a slave so is my mom, but she's manager when Watto isn't here." Anakin said.
"I'll have to wait until Watto gets here, I can't find it." I said so he couldn't say anymore.
"Anakin, what do you mean almost sister?" the youngest Jedi asked.
"Well…." I slapped my hand over his mouth.
"No more. Anakin, go to the back and get that Gungan out of the supplies." I said.
"OK, Shay. Sorry, I know you don't like to talk about it." Anakin said slinking to the back.
"I love you to the ends of the earth." I called to him.
"I love you every day and twice on Sundays." He called back.
"You two seem close. By the way, I apologize for not introducing our small party. The Gungan is Jar Jar Binx, this is Padmé, I am Qui-Gon Jin and this is Obi-Wan Kenobi," Said Qui-Gon.
"So, what was Anakin saying about you? Something about you being his almost sister. I'm confused about that." Obi-Wan asked.
"My father abandoned me, and my mother killed herself. I stayed with Cordé for a while, but her duties to Queen Amidala interfered. So they took me in. Mrs. Skywalker is really nice. His name was Qui Jin. That's all I remember about him. So, technically, my full name would be Ishayko Naberrie Jin Skywalker." I explained.
"OK. I get it." Obi-Wan said.
"I'm going to see what's taking him so long." Padmé said. I nodded and went back to my work, ignoring the Jedi watching me. Qui-Gon coughed.
"I said you'll have to wait." I said.
"Could I look around your storage?" He asked. I shook my head.
"The girl shouldn't even be back there. That'll be a whipping for me. Joy." I said.
"ISHAYOK! WHO ARE THESE?" Watto yelled.
"These are Qui-Gon Jin, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Padmé is in the back with Anakin. Don't give me that look!" I explained. He grabbed my wrist and slapped me then threw me at a pile of junk. "Ow…." I muttered as I stood and limped to the back. "Anakin, come home, the shifts over. I need to get ready for my other job, and there's a storm coming." I called into the back.
"Coming! Padmé, you want to see my house?" He asked enthusiastically.
"Sure, Anny." She said.
"Let's go. We need to hurry Anakin, its coming fats." I said as I ran off toward our house.
"Wait up, Shay!" I heard. I was already nearly there but I knew they wouldn't make it. Not with her in that dress. I ran back and threw her over my shoulder, allowing them to run after me, faster because they thought I would hurt her.
"PUT ME DOWN! RIGHT NOW YOU PEASENT!" She screamed. I didn't do as she said so she punched me, causing me to stumble but continue running.
"Put her down!" I heard Obi-Wan call. Again, I didn't listen. I set her inside and went to get Anakin. He was always slow. The Jedi ran past as I went to grab Anakin.
"ANNY! GET DOWN!" I said as I put my own body over him. I begged the Force to let him live and take my life if it meant saving him. The storm wailed and I put my cloak on him only and told him to run to the house.
"I'm not leaving you." He was stubborn.
"Go. Please. Your mother needs you." When I mentioned his mother he took off running.
AT THE HOUSE- ANAKINS POV
"ANAKIN! You're OK! Thank the Force. Where's Ishayko?" My mother asked.
My eyes welled with the tears I knew I wouldn't be able to hold back. "She probably gave her life to save mine. She gave me her cape, and she stayed down, but do you think…..?" I couldn't fight the tears anymore. I ran to my mother and cried. Cried like I've never cried before.
"Anakin, how far did you have to run?" Obi-Wan asked.
"N-n-not f-f-far. About six or so houses away. Can you save her?" I asked hopefully. He pulled his cloak tight over his face despite a disapproving look from Qui-Gon.
"Shimi, keep Anakin here. I've got to see if I can find her." He said as he ran out the door. I knew the chance was impossible, but I needed this hope.
IN THE STORM- OBI-WAN'S POV
I was running. Running so fast I didn't know where I was, let alone where to look for the brave girl that probably gave her life to save the boy. The chosen boy, maybe? Could he be the boy
we had been searching for? Anything was possible. The Force had found its way into me, even though I had my doubts.
"Ishayko! Ishayko!" I called into the storm. I heard a very small moan in the storm. "Try to say something if you can hear me." I pleaded with the voice.
"Help me. Please." The voice begged. I ran to her and took her cloak out of my pocket. I wrapped her in it and ran back to the house. I beg to the Force you live, Ishayko. Please, live. I thought desperately.
When we got back to the house, I had to dig the sand out of her mouth.
"Obi-Wan, that was brave, and heartless. Quick minded too. Nice work," My mentor and long time family friend said to me with a pat to my shoulder.
"Thank you, Master. But I am not sure if she will live. The Force is strong with her, but will it be enough?" I questioned everything. He hated it.
