Chapter 1
(Anakin's POV)
I woke up around the usual time I wake up. I sat up on my bed and then there was a knock on my door. "One minute please." I said. I stood up and stretched. Then I walked over to door and opened it. It was Obi-Wan. "Good morning Master." I said.
"Good morning Anakin. The council would like to see us."
"Obi-Wan, I swear, I didn't do anything this time. Or at least I don't think I did anything…" I started to think about what I could've possibly done to make the council want to see me.
"Relax Anakin. You didn't do anything. Or at least that I'm aware of…" Obi-Wan started to think about things Anakin could've possibly done to get in trouble with the council. After a minute Obi-Wan continued. "We have a mission."
"Oh ok. Sounds good to me Master." As Obi-Wan and I were walking to the council chambers, a youngling crashed into me. I heard Obi-Wan snickering and I gave him a hard glare telling him that it was not funny.
"OMG! I'M SOOOOO SORRY! I WASN'T WATCHING WHERE I WAS GOING AND I WAS RUNNING FROM MY FRIENDS! HI MASTER KENOBI! DID I TELL YOU I WAS SORRY?!" The youngling said. Then we all heard some yelling from the distance. I made out a sentence or two but the rest was lost in other yelling and giggling. "Maximum! Get back here!" Then the youngling said "OOPS, SORRY AGAIN! GOTTA GO! BYE!"
The youngling ran off and soon a group of other youngling ran by screaming and yelling at "Maxine" I guess was her name. Obi-Wan and I continued to walk to the council chambers. Then I asked "Who was that?"
"That was Maximum. She is a youngling and awaiting a new master. She will be assigned to someone this afternoon."
"Oh, I'd feel bad for the person who got her. They'd come out of their quarters deaf."
"Anakin, be nice. She was found on Onderon and she had been mistreated by her parents. She was almost sold into slavery. She is very insecure and she doesn't trust people very easily, at all. The only person she trusts with her life is me. I was the one to find her and bring her to the temple. I watched over her until she was told she would be assigned to a master. Did you know she is the one of the youngest younglings to be assigned to a master?"
"No I didn't know that. How old is she?"
"13, today."
"Wow. That is very young. And what a great birthday present it will be."
"Indeed."
When we arrived at the chambers, we had to wait until they said to come in. When the buzzard beeped, we walked in.
"Master Kenobi and Skywalker, to Onderon you will go. Stop a Separatist attack you will." Master Yoda said.
"You will leave here in one standard hour." Master Windu said.
"Yes Masters." I said. Onderon, eh? Sounds like my kind of place. "So, Obi-Wan, it is 11 right now and we leave here in one hour. I'm going to go get my stuff. I'll inform Rex. See you later in the hangar." I said to Obi-Wan as we walk down the halls of the Temple toward our quarters. As I was packing, I noticed that I had not eaten in a while. As I walked down to the Mess Hall, I saw Maximum talking with a friend. Her friend was one of the people I noticed was chasing her when she ran into me on accident earlier.
She had very long blonde hair. Crystal blue colored eyes. She had a very big and bright smile. She had two lightsabers hanging on her belt. By looking at the two lightsabers, I could tell they are Shien grip or Ataru grip. (Everything just like Ahsoka's second outfit except, she doesn't have a Togruta sash hanging off her belt. Her lightsabers are the same as Ahsoka's first lightsaber. She also ALWAYS wears her cloak but keeps her hood down.) (You will find out why later in the story!)
She started joking around and backed away from her friend playfully and yelled "YOU CAN'T GET ME!" Her smile was very big and very bright. Then she started running towards me with her eyes closed laughing her head off. Her friend started chasing her. I tried to get out of the way of her running but she opened her eyes to late and I side stepped too late. She ran into me and we both fell to the floor.
"OMG! I'M SOOO SORRY! I WASN'T WATCHING WHERE I WAS GOING! I AM SOOO SORRY! DID I TELL YOU I WAS SORRY?!"She said. Rex had chosen just that moment to walk out of the Mess Hall. I gave Rex a very stern look as he tried to smother some snickering.
I picked up her lightsabers and she picked up mine. We handed each other our lightsabers. She said a thank you as I did. She walked back over to her friend then they started to go towards the Mess Hall again when Obi-Wan walked around the corner.
"MASTER KENOBI!" She screamed with joy as she ran over to Obi-Wan and gave him a little hug and a bow.
"Good morning Maximum. How are you?"
"Good and you?"
"Now that you ask, good."
Maximum gave a little bow then headed into the Mess. Obi-Wan, Rex, and I followed. After we got some food, I headed to my quarters and grab my stuff. Obi-Wan headed to his to get his stuff. We would meet at the Hangar in ten minutes. After I had gotten all my stuff, I headed to the hangar. I found R2 working on my starfighter. "Hey Buddy." R2 beeped some replies and a question. "No we are going to Onderon. Intel reported that there is going to be a Separatist attack. So, we have to stop that attack." I said as I smiled down at R2. He beeped some affirmatives and we got ready to go.
Obi-Wan walked into the Hangar smiling and he looked like he had just got done laughing.
"What has gotten you in such a good mood master?"
"Maximum got her new master."
"Really? Who is it?"
"She didn't say. She said she had to go get ready and pack for her new mission with her master."
Obi-Wan and I got aboard a Gunship to go the Resolute. Maximum was running into the hangar right as I was telling the pilot we are ready for liftoff.
"MASTER KENOBI, WAIT!" She said as she was running towards the Gunship at full speed with a little backpack on her shoulder. She looked like she had been running for a while.
"PILOT, WAIT. STAY DOWN!" Obi-Wan yelled. When she finally reached us she had the biggest smile on her face that I had ever seen.
"So tell me Maximum, who is your master?" She signaled for Obi-Wan to bend down so she could whisper in his ear. When she pulled away, they both had smirks on their faces.
Rex then whispered in my ear "Is the kid coming? Because we need to get underway as soon as possible."
"Maximum, are you coming?" I asked.
"Yes Anakin, she is." Obi-Wan answered.
"So Maximum, who is your new master?" I asked as the Gunship took off.
She seemed to beam at me when I asked her that.
"YOU SILLY!" She said.
YAYYYYY! SHE GOT HER NEW MASTER! I think you guys should review a lot if you want to find out what happens… Just sayin…
