Chapter 2: Aboard The Invisible Hand

Of course the battle was a breeze for the two Jedi warriors , who cut through pictures the Droid's with ease, as they always missed, however one got lucky and took a shot at Anakin "Master, on you're left!" Alex called out, Anakin noticed this and quickly defected the blaster shot, he then used the force to move the droid towards him and destroy it with his blue Lightsaber.

"Hah" Anakin laughed when the battle was over, they surveyed the destroyed Droid's and watched as one of them groaned and fell over ending the battle before it even started. "Peace of cake" Anakin said smiling and he deactivated his Lightsaber and Alex did the same. Noticing that Anakin was the only one who destroyed any of the Droid's at all.

"You hardly left any for me"

"Oh come on" Anakin said "there's two right behind you" at this Alex smiled and destroyed the Droid's before they even got a shot in. "Told you" Anakin said once the two Battle Droid's were destroyed "come on, the mission" at this Alex smiled and followed suit, R2 close behind him.

"OK" Alex turned to R2 who switched on a hologram of the ship they were on. The Invisible Hand "They're keeping the chancellor somewhere here" he pointed to a top column in the hologram in the ship "in that observation tower"

"This is too easy"

"You're right" Alex noticed looking at the destroyed battle Droid's "you'd think they'd put up a better fight than this" he turned back and felt a cold feeling. It wasn't a regular feeling, this was the feeling that the Dark Side was near by and ready to strike. "You feel that?"

"Yes" Anakin said nodding in reply "I feel it"

"Dooku"

"And a trap"

"So?" Alex said curiously "what's are next move?"

At this Anakin' smiled and said "Spring the trap of course" at this Alex couldn't help but share laughter with his old master. They had gone through so much together over the years. And he couldn't quite believe he had made it through.

"Let's go" Anakin said once they stopped laughing, as they did R2 started to follow them but Alex stood by his Droid friend and said

"No, R2 buddy" R2 stopped and looked at Alex curiously "I need you to stay here and keep watch, help us out in any tricky situations" at this R2 let out a couple of bleeps and Alex couldn't help but laugh "yeah, you're a great help, any way, can you do that for me?" At this R2 let out a series of happy bleeps, which Alex took as conformation.

"Well then" Anakin said happily "let's get to work" at this Alex smiled and said happily

"Right with you master" and the two Jedi headed straight towards the elevator which would lead them directly to Chancellor Palpatine and hopefully Count Dooku.

Meanwhile on another side of the Invisible Hand, Genral Grevious headed towards the bridge. Coughing ever so slightly as he did so, the damage inflicted on him by Mace Windu, had done it's work and all that Grevious needed was to fight Jedi. And win the Clone Wars. He would have his revenge on the Jedi for not allowing him to join.

He turned towards his commander and asked a question that would delight him for many moments to come "what do you have to report?" It took a while for the ship's captain to answer as everyone in the Separatist army were afraid of him and Dooku. They believed them to be nothing but myths. But they were soon proven wrong. "Answer me!"

"Oh" the Captain said started, as were all the Trade Federation beings, he brought up a hologram of two Jedi running through the corridors of the ship "yes, it appears Two Jedi were spotted in the main hanger bay, our Droid's are tracking them as we speak" at this Grevious chuckled with delight at the thought of killing two Jedi.

"So they have come to rescue the Chancellor have they?" He laughed at this and coughed a few more times "just as Count Dooku Predicted" he coughed again and turned to three battle Droid's "come with me and bring the special prisoner" at this the Three Droid's responded with their usual

"Roger, roger " at this Grevious sighed but felt an immediate pleasure at the thought of braking two new potential Jedi prisoners.. He walked away and the Battle Droid's followed in pursuit.
