Fatal Fight
As Luke Skywalker fell into his deep trance by the side, all hell broke loose in the auction hall.
"Don't let the jedi get our merchandise!" One of the Black Sun gangsters yelled. "Waste them, boys." But then, they noticed some of the criminals trying to steal the items in the auctions.
"HEY! DON'T BE TAKING THE STUFF!" Another replied. It turned into a massive free-for-all with the other three heroes caught in the middle. Blaster fire ricocheted all over the room as everybody dodged behind crates and chairs. Jet and Celina activated their lightsabers, trying to deflect several shots back at the gangsters.
"Ow." Celina cried out as a shot grazed her arm. "This isn't working. I think I only deflected a single bolt."
"Hurry, girl. Get behind these boxes." Jet yelled back, jumping for cover. Reaching to his belt, he pulled out a light blaster. "Looks like we'll have to do this the old fashioned way."
The two padawans opened fire taking out several thugs. When the two saw Graxxus' skiff glide towards the exit, the two turned their blasters on its engines. The platform short circuited then dropped to the ground with its obese passenger.
"Yeah, take that fatso." Celina yelled in triumph. "I knew a lazy hutt gangster would be no match for..." The padawan's words were cut off as the fat hutt slithered towards the two jedi at an amazing speed. Graxxus wrapped the two padawans tightly in the coils of his tail.
"Tibi jedi." Graxxus laughed, constricting the life out of the two jedi in his coils. "You now, bantha poodoo. Himi watankitaka?"
"Any last words?" His droid translated.
"Yes." Jet replied. "You need to eat less spicy food. The smell coming out from this end of your digestive tract is terrible." The hutt snarled in a rage and squeezed tighter around the two padawans. At that moment, Jet and Celina began to push against the coils with the Force and slowly forced the hutt's slithery body away from themselves.
"It's working." Celina cried out, as she and Jet jumped free of the coils. "We're free."
"AAAHH!" The hutt screamed in a rage. "YABBA THIPOMANIRONGA!"
"My word." The droid replied. "I am not going to repeat."
"I don't want to know what he said, man." Jet answered as he jumped out of the way of the hutt's swishing tail. "I just wish he get gone from here."
"Don't worry, Jet. We're about to be rid of him." Celina replied, thoughtfully. "I remembered something that Princess Leia told me... Quick try to imagine holding one end of a long metal chain while I imagine holding the other end." Jet nodded and the two ran toward either side of the hutt, holding a chain that wasn't there.
Suddenly, Graxxus felt an invisible force wrap around his neck as he gave a little indent of the links of a chain appearing on his flesh.
"Urk." The hutt gurgled as he grasped to his throat. He made several wheezing noises as his tongue hung out and his eyes rolled back in his head. Finally after few moments, the two padawans let go of the non-existent chain and the hutt lurched forward.
"Is he dead?" Jet asked in shock. "Didn't we kill him?"
"Nah, he's just knocked out." Celina shook her head. "Hurry up, let's get him tied up before we..." Suddenly, two small arms lashed out and grabbed each jedi by the throat. Opening his eyes, the hutt let out a deep chuckle.
"Foolish children, that was a stupid decision to try that. I was merely acting and you bought into my performance." Graxxus roared as his protocol droid translated.
"Sir, have you considered going on tour with a acting troop?" The droid directly asked the hutt. Graxxus just growled at him. "Shutting up, sir."
"I should kill both of you right here and now," Graxxus continued to the jedi. "but having two jedi owe me their lives could be valuable in the future." Throwing Jet and Celina against the wall, Graxxus motioned for the rest of his henchmen to follow him out the exit. "Baska." He vanished from the chamber.
Meanwhile, Patti managed to shoot down several pirates and smugglers before jumping onto the stage.
"End of the road, Zhan." She stated. "No way we're letting you escape this time."
"Foolish, little zeltron." The crime lord smirked, pulling out a vibro-sword. "You think I'm going to lose to some crazed jedi fangirl?"
Patti snarled at him before pulling out her light whip. She whipped the energy rope towards Zhan's sword and wrapped it around the blade.
"But how?" She yelled in shock. "That should have cut through your weapon like a hot vibro-knife through nerf butter."
"Nice try, but this thing is made of buscar." He laughed. "You are going to need to come up with something better. That is, if you're even capable of doing so."
"You are already pissing me off before you even opened your big mouth." Patti rebuked.
"Why should I listen to a woman who's only good for entertainment?" Zahn answered. "But on the plus side, you would be highly valuable because there aren't any zeltron slaves. I could make a fortune, if you're sold to a Reminant Moff or a Crime Lord."
"That isn't the kind of compliment I'm looking for." San-tika answered. "You aren't going to capture me or anymore women for that matter."
"Very well, then." Zahn rebuked. "Have it your way."
Patti continued to lash out her lightwhip against the criminal. As Tyber Zahn blocked the whip with his knife, he pulled out his blaster. He fired several shots at the zeltron but Patti was able to roll out of the way of the shots and hiding behind some of the boxes of cargo that were still on the stage.
She pulled out her pistol and opened fire back towards the Black Sun member. And he dodged out of the way to cover. The two of them continued to open fire with their blasters with neither one getting an advantage over the other. Tyber Zahn noticed that there were no more shots coming from Patti.
"Huh, you've given up already?" Tyber asked, coming out from his cover and walking towards the crates Patti was behind. He put his blaster away, letting his guard down. "I'm probably sure that you have figured out the truth about the situation at hand." He turned to see the backside of the crates and there was no one there. "Just as I thought, you had decided to run away from the fight."
Then from behind him, Patti disarmed the criminal's vibro-knife and threw him over off the stage, knocking the wind out of Zahn.
"You think I would run away from a fight?" The zeltron added. "Now, prepare to face my powers."
"Your hormonal powers?" Tyber asked with a smirk on his face as he got up off the ground. "What good would they do in battle? The only thing its good for is making men hard."
"How about this?" The zeltron roared in anger, as she blasted him with a hormonal wave. It hit the person head on when he looked towards Patti, he was feeling shaken.
"Hey, what is the big idea with this?" He stated, becoming progressively more frightened.
"You like that, Tyber Zahn?" Patti replied. "Have some more." She blasted him with the same ability again and again. It reached the point to where Zahn got too much of the hormones and began to hallucinate.
When he looked up again, he saw he was being pounced by a nexu with its claws out of its paws. He saw he was be mauled and shredded and tried to block the claws. But in reality, it was Patti on top of him punching towards him repeatedly.
At that moment, Celina shook off the hutt's attack and saw what the zeltron was doing.
"Patti, stop." The padawan pleaded, rushing towards their location. "You're starting to give in to your anger. That is the dark side." The zeltron stopped and pulled back looking at the zabrak for a minute.
"We're in the middle of a battle." Patti replied. Still terrified, Zahn took the momentary distraction to draw his blaster again to shoot the nexu in the head at point-blank range. "Now isn't the time for..." She was interrupted as the shot from Tyber Zahn's blaster struck her in the chest. The Black Sun member shoved her away as she fell to the ground.
Celina stood there in shock for a quick moment as the criminal came to his senses. Then, the zabrak growled.
"YOU ARE GOING TO PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO PATTI!" She roared in anger. She swung her saber in an uncontrolled manner. Tyber Zahn was able to dodge the swings easily.
"So much for a padawan being effective." He stated as he pointed his blaster towards her, only to have that hand cut off by one of her swings. "AHH!"
Then, Celina reached out with the force and Tyber Zahn felt a pull inside him. He turned to the angry padawan.
"What in the world is this?" He asked.
"This is the Force." She replied as she started to slowly close her hand. Tyber Zahn started to pant louder and faster. He was starting to spasm in a rapid manner. "You enjoy seeing the suffering of others, don't you. I'm going to make sure that you are denied that chance."
The zabrak clenched her fist and a soft squish was heard. The Black Sun criminal fell to the ground as she saw blood come gushing out of his mouth. She turned back to Patti and cradled her in her arms. She had saw that the zeltron was dead.
"Patti." Celina cried out to her. "I didn't mean for this to happen." Suddenly, several members of the Naboo security forces came rushing into the room and Luke came out of his strange trance dropping and smashing the holocron he had been holding.
