Chapter 8: Friends In Danger
Arena (Jason's POV)
After all of us entered the arena we saw hundreds of people at their seats, cheering for the upcoming event. As We walked through the hallways, Adam looked at us and said, "Okay guys here's the plan. I want everyone at each side of the arena. Jason I want you at the west side, Barris you'll take the east side and Anthony will take the north. I'll stay here and watch the south side. Stay alert and if there are slaves, follow them if they are exiting your side. Keep contact with each other at all times. Understand?" Everyone nodded at me. "Alright then lets move." I said as everyone went into their positions.
As I watched everyone head to their points I noticed that there was some sort of VIP area that was at Anthony's position. Anthony spoke up. "Adam there's a VIP box near me. Should I investigate it?"
"Negative Anthony, keep your distance away from it. We don't want to look suspicious." I said to him.
"Got it." Anthony said. "I'll inform you if I see anything." Anthony then hung up. While everyone was at their posts, looking for anything unusual, I heard something outside the arena. I looked outside a window and saw nothing until I saw a figure wearing a black cloak staring at me. The figure then pulled down his hood and revealed his face. It was Trickster who was smiling and waving his hand at me, taunting me. In my head there were so many things going through my head. Should I go after him or should I stay here and worry about him later?
(Anthony's POV)
After waiting for a few minutes I began to here people entering the VIP room as the show was about to start. The arena floor began to open as a slave in chains would appear and the audience would cheer. As the first slave was being auctioned, a Zygerrian woman wearing a blue and gold dress with rings around her neck walks into the VIP room and looks at the audience and says, "My fellow Zygerrians, as your queen I present to you, Roshti, the governor of Kiros!" I looked down and saw the governor who was in charge of the city that had lost all of its citizens.
"Are you guys seeing this?" I asked everyone on the communicator.
"I can't believe this." Barriss said.
"At least we know now where the slaves are and who's in charge." Jason said.
As we were looking at the former governor, Barriss speaks up. "Guys I see Ahsoka and Anakin inside the VIP box." After she said that I look and see Ahsoka wearing a blue and gold slave dress and Anakin wearing a Zygerrian uniform. "But where is Master Kenobi?" She asked.
The queen then said, "I also present to you… Jedi Master Obi wan Kenobi!" After she said that all of us saw Obi wan with chains on his arms and legs, and being whipped by a Zygerrian. But after he was whipped all of us saw, Anakin and Ahsoka activate their lightsabers.
Anakin jumps off the VIP box and kills the Zygerrian whipping Obi wan while Ahsoka kills two Zygerrian guards inside the room and has her lightsabers at the queen's throat. While Ahsoka held her lightsaber, the queen pulls out a trigger with a red button and presses it, releasing bolts of electricity around Ahsoka's body. I noticed that there was a collar around her neck, which was causing her so much pain.
While all of this was going on, Barriss contacted me and asked, "Anthony what should we do?"
"I don't know let me contact Adam." I said. "Adam what do you want us to do?"
"Stay hidden." He said on the communicator, but then I realized that he sounded very tired.
"Are you okay?" I asked.
"I'm a little busy okay!" He said. "I'm chasing Trickster across the city right now!"
"What?" I asked.
Several Minutes Ago (Adam's POV)
After I saw Trickster standing outside the arena in my head there were so many things going through my head. Should I go after him or should I stay here and worry about him later? Without any hesitation I jumped out the window before the auctioned started, and began chasing trickster across the streets of the city. "GET OUT OF THE WAY!" I said as I pushed everyone out my way and pursued Trickster through food markets that were outside the arena.
While I was chasing him, Trickster would grab some food from the stands and would throw them at me and would also pull down carts creating many obstacles for me. When I came across the fallen food carts I would jump over and dodge them as if I was football player in the super bowl. After the two of us past the food market, Trickster ran on top of a wall and jumped onto the roof of a building. Now the case was going to be on the rooftops.
As I continued chasing him on the rooftops, I reached into my robe and pulled three shurikens. Since there was nobody on the roof, this would be the only time to throw them. After I threw the blades at him, Trickster grabbed a piece of wood nearby and used it as a shield while the blades hit it and stuck onto the board. After that plan didn't work, there was one other option, I reached my hand out and fired my grappling hook at him. As the hook got closer and closer to him, Trickster jumped off the roof of a building and landed on a speeder.
After I got to the edge of the building I got a good look at him and saw him smiling and waved good-bye. I was so mad that I allowed him to get away again and then Zeta said something. "Adam I'm getting a call from Anthony."
"Answer it." I said.
"Adam what do you want us to do?" He asked
"Stay hidden." I said to him as I was regaining my breath from the long run.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"I'm a little busy okay!" I said. "I'm chasing Trickster across the city right now!"
"What?" He asked.
"Well...I lost him!" I said as I turned back and started walking back to the arena. "Anyway what's the problem?"
"You need to head back to the arena. Obi wan, Anakin and Ahsoka's cover has been blown." He said. After he said that I realized that Trickster knew I would pursue him so he made me chase him across the city to split me up from the group. I have never felt more like an idiot.
"What about you guys?" I asked.
"We just stood and watched." He said. "They're taking Obi wan to where the slaves are being taken."
"You, Barriss and Jason take the Nightstalker and follow Obi wan."
"What about you?" He asked.
"I'll stay here and free Ahsoka and Anakin." I said to him. "I'll find a way to get to you guys."
"Okay." He said.
"And one more thing. Once you get there you contact the Jedi and tell them where they are taking the slaves."
"Got it." He said. "Good luck Adam."
"You too bro." I said as I hung up the communicator and said, "Zeta I need you to pull up Ahsoka's location."
"She's being taken to the queen's palace. Just a few miles west from the arena." She said.
"Okay." I said. "Let's go." I then started to run across the rooftops to Ahsoka's location.
Well it looks like the group i split up now, and it looks like those slave owners are about to feel the wrath of Adam. Keep reading to see what happens next.
