Okay guys back with a new chapter. Thank you soo much for all the support. Anyways on with the story XD
Chapter 6
Me and Anakin were outside fixing the pod racer. All of a sudden Watto shouted. "BOY, GET IN HERE NOW!"
Anakin rolled his eyes. "Come on Ash. Let's go see what Watto wants." I nodded then we both ran into the shop. I crossed my arms slightly as Watto started questioning Anakin about where he had been.
"What took you so long?" Watto asked, obviously slightly excited about making a new sale.
I looked at the customers. One was a tall man with long brown hair that was in a ponytail and his eyes were a cool blue colour. Another was a pretty girl with brown hair and kind brown eyes. I then noticed the Gungan. He looked clumsy. I just hoped he wouldn't break anything. I then noticed a little blue and white astro droid. My eyes suddenly light up as I recognised the customers. They were the people from my dreams.
Anakin raised an eyebrow slightly at me then looked at Watto and answered is question. "I was cleaning the bin like you..." He was cut off by Watto.
"Watch the store, I have some selling to do" he then turned to the tall man. "Soo...let me take - a thee out back. Ni you'll find what you need." The man and the little droid followed Watto out back.
The Gungan picked up a gizmo but the man took it off him and placed it back where it should be. "Don't touch anything" he warned. The Gungan made a ride face to the mans back and stuck out his long tongue. I giggled slightly at the Gungan.
Anakin was sitting on the counter pretending to clean a droid part. I raised an eyebrow slightly when I saw him staring at the girl. I could see she was feeling slightly embarrassed by Anakin's staring, but none the less she musters up a friendly but amused smile. This give Anakin the courage to speak to her. "Are you an angel?"
I tried not to laugh at what Anakin asked. "Nice pick up line Anakin" I muttered slightly.
He obviously heard me and scowled slightly at me but turned his attention back to the girl and waited for an answer.
The girl was slightly confused by Anakin's question. "What?"
"An angel. I've heard the deep space pilots talk about them. They are the most beautiful creatures in the universe. They live on the Moons of Iego I think." Anakin explained. I smirked slightly. 'Someone has a crush I think' I thought to myself.
She didn't know what to say to Anakin. "You're a funny little boy. How do you know so much?" She asked.
" I listen to all the traders and starpilots that come by here. I'm a pilot, you know, and some day I'm gonna fly away from this place." Anakin told her. I giggled slightly at Anakin. 'Okay he definitely likes her. He's flirting...well trying to flirt' I thought to myself.
The girl smirked slightly. "You're a pilot?"
Anakim smiled. "All my life!" He replied with enthusiasm. I had to admit I was finding this quite funny. The girl was around 14 years old. Anakin didn't exactly have a shot to be honest.
The girl smiled back at Anakin. "How long have you been here?" She asked.
Anakin thought about it for a couple seconds. "Since I was very little, three, I think. My Mom and I were sold to Gardulla the Hutt, but she lost us, betting on the Podraces."
She was slightly shocked. "You're a slave?" She asked, confused but concerned.
Anakin scowled slightly at her. "I'm a person and my name is Anakin" he snapped. I shook my head slightly at Anakin. He hated being called a slave. And I had to admit I hated being called one too.
She obviously realised she had offended Anakin so she apologised. "I'm sorry. I don't fully understand." She looked around. "This is a strange place to me."
Anakin studied her intently. The Gungan was messing around with a droid. He grabbed a hold of it but he didn't know how to switch it off. Anakin noticed. "Hey.."
The Gungan looked up. "Wha..?" He asked confused. The droid kicked him.
"Hit the nose!" Anakin told the Gungan.
I sighed and went over to help the Gungan. I hit the nose and placed the droid back where it should be. He smiled at me. I smiled back then walked over to Anakin and the girl. "Hi, I'm Ashaiya Nalto. Anakin's adopted little sister"
The girl smiled at me. "I'm Padme. It's nice to meet you"
I nodded and was about to say something else when the man from before came back from the junk pile lot with the astro droid. "We're leaving. Jar Jar?"
The Gungan who I presumed was Jar Jar was juggling some parts. As soon the man addressed him he dropped all the parts. I sighed slightly. "Guess who will be tidying those up later" I muttered to myself.
Padme gave Anakin a loving look then smiled at me. "It glad to have met you two" I nodded at her as she left.
Anakin had a sad look on his face as he watched her leave. "I'm glad to have met you too" I raised an eyebrow slightly at him.
Watto flew back into the store. "Outlanders. They think they know everything" he muttered in
Huttese.
Anakin looked at Watto. "They seemed nice to me" I nodded in agreement with Anakin.
Watto sighed slightly. "Clean the racks...then you can go home" Me and Anakin let out a loud "Yippee" then ran over to clean the racks then ran out of the store.
We spotted Jar Jar about to get beaten to a pulp by Sebulba. That Gungan was nothing but trouble. "Hey! Sleemo! Why don't you pick on someone your own size!" I shouted at him in Huttese.
Anakin smiled slightly at Sebulba. "Careful, Sebulba... He's a big time outlander... I'd hate to see you diced before we race again" he taunted.
Sebulba turned away from Jar Jar and towards me and Anakin. "Next time we race, boy, it will be the end of you! If you two weren't slaves, I'd squash you now." He turned away.
Anakin smirked slightly again. "Yeah, it'd be a pity if you had to pay for us both" He smiled at Padme and the man from the shop. "Hi"
The man smiled back. "Hi there"
Anakin motioned to Jar Jar. " Your buddy here was about to be turned into orange goo." Anakin said.
"He picked a fight with a Dug. An especially dangerous Dug called Sebulba." I explained to Padme and the man.
Jar Jar looked at me and Anakin then at Padme and the man. "Mesa haten crunchen. Dat's da last ting mesa wanten."
The man shook his head. " Nevertheless, the boy and girl are right ... you were heading for trouble... Thanks, my young friends."
We smiled at the man then looked at Padme. She smiled at us and Anakin grinned. I rolled my eyes slightly at the two. "Come on let's go" we all started walking through the streets of Mos Espa.
Back on the outskirts of the spaceport Obi-Wan was standing in front of the ship looking out towards the city. Sand was blowing everywhere thanks to the wind, that was gradually picking up. Captain Panaka walked out and over to Obi-Wan. "This storm will slow them down." He stated.
Captain Panaka nodded slightly. "It looks pretty bad." Suddenly his comlink went off. "Panaka?"
The fellow captain Ric Olie's voice could be heard over the comlink. "We're receiving a message from home."
Panaka looked at Obi-Wan then nodded. "We'll be right there" he turned off his com and him and Obi-Wan run towards to ship.
Back in Mos Espa we were all in front of one of the local fruit stores, owned by a kind old lady by the name of Jira. Anakin looked at the man. "Here, Here, you'll like these pallies... Here."
The man looked at Anakin and took the fruit. "Thank you" he lifted up his poncho and placed the pallies in a little pouch. Mine and Anakin's eyes widened slightly when we spotted his light saber hanging from his belt. "He's one of the Jedi from my dreams" I thought to myself.
I was snapped out of my thoughts by Jira speaking. " Oh, my bones are aching ... storm's coming up, Ani, Ash, You'd two better get home quick."
Anakin nodded and looked at the man. "Do you have shelter?"
The man looked around then at Anakin. " We'll head back to our ship."
Anakin raised an eyebrow slightly. "Is it far?" He questioned. I raised an eyebrow at Anakin. I knew he would end up inviting the strangers to our home for shelter.
This time it was Padme's turn to answer. "It's on the outskirts"
I shook my head slightly and Anakin did as well. " You'll never reach the outskirts in time... sandstorms are very, very dangerous. Come on! We'll take you to our place." I sighed slightly. Just as I had thought, Anakin did end up inviting the strangers to our home. I hoped mother would be okay about this. The storm started to pick up slightly. We started to make our way home with the the group of strangers...
