Librarian Sabotage!
Young Anakin Skywalker stepped cautiously into Jocasta Nu's office. "This is stupid," he muttered to himself. All it had taken was an "I dare you" from Ferus, and he had foolhardily agreed to put spider-roaches into the cranky librarian's binders and cover her hover-chair with slime. He sighed. This was going to end badly. After all, hadn't some of the older apprentices told him that Master Nu was a Sith in disguise?
Using the force, the Anakin pulled down several binders and stuffed fistfuls of spider-roaches into them, before replacing them on a nearby shelf. Shuddering in revulsion, he wiped his hand on his cloak quickly. Finally, he pulled out the bottle of slime and smeared it evenly on the hover-chair. Silently, he crept out of the room, and sped away as fast as his short legs could carry him.
Jocasta Nu muttered darkly as she force-pulled her binders from a shelf. The Jedi were getting careless with the holobooks, and many of them had not been returned. Growling, she sat on the hover-chair with a wet squish. Horrified, she leapt off, dropping the binders in the process. A scuttling sound was then heard. Looking down, Jocasta Nu shrieked as hundreds of spider-roaches crawled towards her.
Using the force, she jumped over the horde and ran out, slamming the door behind her. Someone was going to pay for this, and she had a good idea who that someone was.
Anakin tiptoed into the archives. He could not be sure if that witch had discovered that he was the perpetrator of that little prank. However, a worse punishment awaited him if he did not bring Master Yoda's holobook copies to him. Gulping, he walked up to the counter where Jocasta Nu was situated. "M-may I have M-master Yoda's h-holobook copies?" he finally stuttered.
Smiling, she handed him the copies without any further ado. "T-thank you?" Anakin said uncertainly. He had expected her to throw him out of the Archives, or at least berate him for his misdeed. "At least I got away with it," Anakin thought as he dashed out of the Archives and into Master Yoda's quarters.
"Thank you, young Skywalker," the wizened Master said." Enjoy these I will. Dismissed, you are." But before Anakin could go any farther, Yoda's smile turned into a frown as he read the titles of each holobook. Angrily, he whacked Anakin hard with his Gimer stick and stomped off without another word.
Groaning, Anakin found himself face to face with the holobooks. Picking them up, he began to read the titles. Perhaps he had taken the wrong ones. As he read out the titles, he gasped. "Proper Grammar for Beginners. How to Increase Your Height. Staying Active in Old Age. Make-up Tips for Older Women." "No wonder Yoda had been so angry!" Anakin silently seethed. However, his next action could be heard all over the Jedi Temple. "Librarian sabotage! Jocasta Nu is an evil Sith Lord!"
Heh, poor Anakin. This happened between TPM and AOTC, when our dear friend was still a young Padawan. Perhaps this incident was why Darth Vader murdered Jocasta. This is my first fanfic, so all flames will be used to power my flamethrower. Remember to review, and constructive criticism is welcomed!
