Anakin Skywalker, boy of seventeen, tall, thin, and most handsome, stepped out into the sunlight of the early morning. His master had gotten him up early because it was time to pick up more younglings for the Jedi Temple to train. The Jedi kept track of every single living Jedi in the galaxy by using Holocrons, the force and other niceties of a Jedi. Though Anakin thought it a strange thing to do, he went along with only because he liked traveling and he especially wanted to get up into the stars to test his new starfighter, The Pomsta, which was Slovakian for Revenge.
He clumped down the front steps of the Temple towards his master, who was cleaning his speeder bike; as he got down to the last four or five steps, another Jedi lightly brushed against his arm. He looked up to see a young girl with short black hair, a black tunic, and a lightsaber at her hip.
She smiled and waved as she passed him. Anakin waved back and stared in awe; he had never seen such beauty, such elegance, and grace as she tossed her hair to the side.
"Anakin!" yelled a voice behind him, "Were going to be late for the take off!" Anakin shook his head and walked down to his master. He jumped on his speeder bike and revved the engine to full power.
"I hope your ready master," he said grinning, "I'm going to beat you this time," his master laughed and climbed onto his speeder bike,
"If only your words were as true as your actions," said his master, "Then you may have a chance of beating me, unless, of course, you let me win,"
"Never," said Anakin, and with that he pushed down on the pedal and his speeder swooped down the road. He guided his speeder through the buildings and weaved in and out of light poles, all with ease and speed. In a few minutes his master had caught up to him and they were taking turns and risking crashing into other vehicles and people. During the day, Coruscant was busy and bustling with people and buses, but in the early morning, Coruscant was different in many ways, the city's lights were still on, and nobody was up this early, except for morning workers and airbus drivers. Anakin had never been up and flying around Coruscant this early, so he was having the time of his life, all until the ride ended.
He screeched to a stop in front of the hanger. His master rode up beside him and jumped off his bike. He gestured for Anakin to follow him inside the hanger, and Anakin made a beeline towards the door, past his master and into the cool warehouse. He ran straight for his new ship and slid his hand along the new smooth wing.
It had two big engines under the wings, a nice round cockpit, and a place for his droid on the left wing, and blue designs all over it. He heard a rustling from under the wing and a worker came out from under the starship.
"Mornin' Skywalker," he said, "Just finished tightenin' the left router unda da wing," Anakin nodded and popped open the cockpit. He jumped inside and sealed it closed,
"This is going to fly great!" he said excitedly, "Because you made it Kelp," the worker smiled sheepishly and picked up his tools.
"Ya have a grat time with er' now," he said waving as Anakin started the engines. The Pomsta roared to life and in a wind whooshing leap it was off and out of the hanger into the sky. Anakin looked to the side to see his master's red and white tip-pointed starfighter fly up next to him, with his docking ring around the front of his ship.
"All systems are a go," said Anakin, talking to his master through the comlink, "How about you? Is that old dump holding up for your likes?" he heard his master laugh,
"Everything is fine in this 'old dump' Anakin," said his master, "But I wanted to talk to you about that Jedi you passed on the front steps of the Temple. You're not developing another one of your crushes are you?"
"Um, now Obi-Wan," said Anakin, "You have to remember that my mind tends to wander once in a while,"
"Once in a while," said his master sarcastically,
"And that I am a Jedi, so I know that it is forbidden to reach out with my heart and only with my hands," He heard his master sigh and saw his ship tilt to one side. Anakin looked forward to see about a dozen or so delivery ships.
"On your left Anakin!" yelled his master over the comlink, "It's on your left! No your other left! Anakin, look to the left! Can you hear me? Your left-" Anakin's ship was hit with a hail of blaster fire and began to drop down back to the planet. Anakin was franticly messing with the controls and trying to get his ship back online, then right in front of him a delivery ship exploded and debris came flying toward his failing ship.
The Pomsta shot to the ground and with a breath-taking screech; the ship collided with the concrete and metal. Obi-Wan Kenobi steered his ship to the ground and landed safely. People were already gathered around the smoldering wreckage and the Coruscant Underworld Police were keeping the spectators back from The Pomsta and trying to put up caution tape. Obi-Wan came running through the crowd, yelling at the CUP to give him permission to cross over the tape.
"I am sorry sir," said the head officer, "But I cannot give you clearance to come inside the danger zone,"
"This place is about to turn into a danger zone if don't let me past!" said Obi-Wan angrily, "That is my padawan in there! Let me through!"
"Your padawan sir?" asked the officer, "What is your padawan?" Obi-Wan rolled his eyes and pulled out a badge with the Jedi symbol on it.
"I am Obi-Wan Kenobi," he said, trying to calm down, "Jedi Knight, Master of Anakin Skywalker, and member of the Jedi Council," the officer took his badge and scanned it. He gave it back and unclipped the tape for him to walk through. Obi-Wan ran to the ship and heaved the cockpit open, saw an unconscious Anakin inside and hauled him out. He past the guard without saying a word and handed him a piece of paper,
"Sir?" asked the officer, "What might this be?"
"It's were I need you to take the ship," said Obi-Wan, "Ask for Kelp when you get there. He'll know what to do," the officer nodded and turned around. Obi-Wan climbed into his ship, put Anakin on his lap, and flew into the sky.
