Last time: The spy got captured by Natsu and the Jedi.
Now: Dooku learns that the spy has been captured and moves forward with a plan.
Chapter 12- Just What I Was Looking For
The Temple Guards dragged Siris to the speeder that was going to take him to the prison. They placed him in the back seat and attached his binders to the bar in front of him. The Temple Guards then hopped into the front seats. Master Windu stood beside the speeder. He whispered something to the guards before he stepped back. The speeder then pulled away from the Jedi Temple.
As the speeder drove through the city scape, Siris scooted as far forward as he could and leaned in between the two guards.
"You guys got a mint on you?" he asked.
"Stay quiet. And sit back," the one in the passenger seat said.
"Spoil sport," Siris said as he sat back.
He looked at his hands and smirked. In his hands were his commlink and the driod cam. While he had asked the guards the question, he managed to snag these two from his belt. He twisted the droid cam in his hand and pressed the small switch on the back. Suddenly a small chip appeared. Holding the droid in his right hand, he used his left that was holding the comm to grab the chip. Once the chip was out, he switched it to the other hand while preparing his commlink. He put in Dooku's private comm number and then plugged in the chip in the port on the butt of the commlink. He then pressed the center button sending it.
Once it was sent, he scooted forward again to replace the items to his belt.
"So no mint?" he asked again.
'No!" they both said.
He scooted back and shrugged. A smirk reappeared on his lips as he got his job done. By that point, they reached the prison.
Dooku sat in his chair behind his desk, meditating. His desk comm beeped at him. He opened his eyes and looked toward the desk. He pressed a few buttons. A moment later, notes and video footage appeared in holographic form above his desk. Dooku leaned forward and pulled up the notes. After reading the notes, he watched the videos.
After about 30 minutes of going through everything he was sent, he sat back in his chair. How is it that he got all of this information, but Siris had not returned. Unless… Dooku placed a call. A moment later, he got no answer. It was as he feared. Siris had been captured, but he got the information he needed. He owed Siris his money, but if he was to be imprisoned, he would need a way to get him out. He called someone else.
"Hello," the voice answered.
"Execute order 1956 for Siris. He should be on Coruscant."
"How much?"
"Posted Bail."
"Done." Then the other end hung up.
Dooku resumed his seat. While that was going down, he needed to figure out what the next. He needed to know what he was going to do about these wizards. He started coming up with an idea.
Siris sat in his cell, picking at his nails. A moment later, a lead guard walked over. Siris looked up as the cell door opened.
"Siris?" he said.
"Yo!" Siris said as he raised his hand.
"Someone just posted bail for you," he said. "You're free to go."
"I thought I was going on trial?" he asked confused.
The guard said nothing, but handed him a note. Siris read the note. His eyebrows rose. He was bailed out by someone named Tyranus and apparently this guy was able to cancel his trial as well. Almost wanting to cheer like an idiot, Siris took a deep breath instead. He looked at the guard with a grin.
"Then what are we doing here?" he said. "I've got places to be!"
The guard sighed and showed Siris out of the prison that he was only in for two hours. Once out, Siris was a free man. He immediately left the system and returned to Serreno as promised. After several hours of travel, he arrived. Dooku was walking up when he landed. Siris walked down the ramp with a big grin.
"Dooku! Hey! I hope you got my message," Siris said as he approached.
"Yes, I got your information," Dooku said. "However, you were captured."
"Look, I told them nothing if that's what you want to know," Siris said. "I told them that I was trying to steal something from the Temple."
"You're lying," Dooku said.
Siris paled. "I got you want you wanted and the information wasn't compromised. I did what you asked."
"Yes, you did. And now you deserve your reward," Dooku said.
Siris smiled again. Dooku stepped forward and with a quick flick of rest activated his saber and then turn it off. Siris stood there shocked. His eyes then rolled back and he crumbled to the ground, dead. Dooku stood over the body and put his saber away.
"You may have done your job, but you have failed me," Dooku said. "Some spy you are."
Two droids came over and cleaned up the corpse. Dooku turned on his heel and disappeared back inside of the building that loomed over the valley.
WHOA! DOOKU! DUDE! Please review!
