Here is update number two that should have been posted yesterday but I had some computer problems so never got around to posting. So here it is to make up for yesterday.


Chapter 11- Step One

The sun peeked through the window and shined in Satine's face. She grimaced, and turned her face away from the sun and cuddled up next to body sleeping beside her. Satine opened her eyes and looked around until her gaze connected with Obi-wan's sleeping face. She smiled then rested her head on his chest.

"Morning," he said, eyes still closed.

"Morning," Satine said.

Obi-wan opened his eyes and looked at the chrono. He sighed then kissed her head.

"We should get ready," Obi-wan said.

Satine glanced at the chrono then groaned.

"I wish this moment wouldn't end," she said.

"Same, but… we have a mission to do," he said.

Satine nodded then climbed out of bed. She grabbed her robe and headed back to her room, quickly, quietly, and carefully so she didn't get caught. Obi-wan climbed out of and got ready within minutes then headed out to the kitchen to eat.

Anakin and Padme sat eating when Obi-wan came in, silently. Obi-wan got his food and sat down with them. They exchanged very few words as they ate, and it remained that way when Satine came in. Once they were done, Obi-wan and Satine took their leave to go meet up with Vizsla.


Anyway, Vizsla's information seemed to be exactly how Obi-wan imagined. The info said that Obi-wan were to deliver Satine to an abandon warehouse where they make the exchange. Obi-wan would take Sasha, and Vizsla would take Satine. Then Obi-wan was to leave with Sasha or Vizsla would kill all three right then and there, and wasn't to return.

However, Obi-wan's version was just a tad bit different. Right after Obi-wan and Sasha leave, they were going to meet up with Jac and Cayden then Obi-wan, Jac, and Cayden were going to rescue Satine and arrest Vizsla. They would then go aid Anakin and Padme as they deal with the others.

Sadly, the speeder ride to the warehouse was already over. Obi-wan stopped the speeder outside of the warehouse then glanced at Satine who sat beside him. Satine looked at him and gave him a small smile. He reached over and grabbed her hand.

"Don't worry," he said. "I'll come back for you as fast as I can."

"I know you will," Satine said.

He pulled her closer for one more kiss before they entered hell. They got out of the speeder and walked toward the warehouse. They entered the building only to find a few boxes here and there covered in dust and cobwebs hanging around.

Suddenly, a door on the other side opened and Vizsla along with two others entered. Obi-wan and Satine walked over to meet up with Vizsla and Sasha, who was right behind him.

"Good, you follow orders well," Vizsla said. "You've got five minutes with the Duchess and your padawan before I leave with Duchess Satine."

The man behind him shoved Sasha forwards where she was caught by Obi-wan. She looked up at him to see a smile come to his face. He pulled her into his arms and held her as happy tears came to his eyes.

Vizsla and his follower moved away to give them privacy.

"Oh Sasha, thank the force you're safe," Obi-wan said.

"I'm so glad to see you, Master," Sasha cried into his chest. "I'm so sorry."

"For what?" Obi-wan asked pulling away.

"For running away, for worrying you," she said.

"Sasha, we're just happy to have you back," Satine said hugging the padawan.

Sasha just smiled as she felt safe in their arms as Obi-wan joined in.

"Alright, love fest is over," Vizsla said. The trio pulled apart to look at him. "Rone grab the padawan."

Rone came over, grabbed Sasha by her upper arms, and took her away.

"Sasha!" Obi-wan called. "Vizsla let her go!"

"Master!" Sasha cried.

"Not a chance, Kenobi," Vizsla said pulling out a pistol. "Now you both are mine."

"This wasn't our deal!" Obi-wan said.

"Well I changed my mind…now move."

Vizsla pushed them forward to a board in the floor that opened to reveal the basement underneath. He forced them down the stairs into the basement where all of Vizsla's torture equipment sat waiting.


Jac pulled the ship out of hyperspace above Naboo. He was told by Obi-wan the night before to make contact once they arrived. He called Obi-wan. He didn't answer. He tried Anakin. Same thing except his seemed to be as if he was already in a call. Jac looked at Cayden as they both exchanged a glance of worry before he tried to call Anakin one more time.


CLIFFY! Do you mess them? Because I do! See wasn't this worth the wait?
