"What do you mean no."

"I can't leave with you."

"How about you escape with us, we discuss this more in a safe place then if you still want to stay, we will return you."

"Only if you guys have food, and something to drink. Also a shower."

"That seems reasonable, get up and follow me."

"Um, can you get these off of me?"

"Yeah, sorry."

A guy with a scar on his eye brings out a glowing blade. It slices the shackles off then retracts. It is awesome. It is blue, just like the red one Count Dooku showed me. I think he called it a lightsaber. It was part of his speech of why I should cooperate with him. I agreed and that was the reason why I was hesitant to join them. But I have a feeling about the scared guy. Almost like he was like me. The other human starts talking to the first one.

"Anakin, what is taking so long."

"Sorry master, took some convincing."

"She needed convincing of escape. She is a slave, right?"

"Let's move, come on, Ahsoka is it."

"Yes."

He grabs my hand and leads me out. We pass by the passed-out guards and exit. We head to a ship. At the ramp is another human and a droid. We enter the ship. I have been in ships but had never seen the inside. It is so clean and interesting. My eyes glow up with the screens and stuff.

I keep twirling my wrists around each other. It feels good to be out of shackles.

"So why did you break me out?"

"You were a slave, and did you ever meet a man named Count Dooku."

The one with orange hair speaks.

"Yeah, he was pretty nice compared to some of my previous masters."

"He can not be trusted. He uses the dark side and is the head of the separatists."

"The first question, who are you, second, what is the dark side, third I think I have heard of the separatists."

The scared one finally looked at me and got ready to speak for once."

"My name is Anakin Skywalker, Jedi Knight, and General for the 501st Legion in the Grand Army of the Republic. The dark side is a method of force used by the sith and is used to only cause harm. The Separatists are a group of independent systems that are causing pain to so much of the galaxy."

"Finally, some straight answers, even though I am still confused. Now be more specific, Anakin, why did you break me out?"

"We are afraid that Count Dooku might be recruiting you to become his next apprentice."

"Oh yeah, he definitely said that. And after some convincing, I agreed. That is why I was hesitant to join you. I have a commitment and Count Dooku is the only one who can help me complete it. So unless you have a better offer I would like to go be a captive again."

"Wait, what did he promise you?"

"Power."

I walk out of the ship. This feels like I am making the wrong decision. I trust him for some reason. I feel disgust for Count Dooku but Anakin has something similar to him. I look back and they sit on crates. Then I hear scurrying, I move out of the way of something then turn around and see Anakin right in front of me. Wait what is he doing. Then everything went black.

"I can't let you help him. Sorry."

She falls into my arms after I knock her out. Her body is frail and light. I move into the light and scars illuminate. I wonder how long she has been a slave. What is her secret mission? So many unknowns are running through my head. I can sense Obi Wan's uneasiness from across the room. I put cuffs on her and lay her on the medical bed. She looks helpless when she is asleep.

"Are you going to keep staring at me weirdly or are you going to verbalize?"

"She reminds you of yourself, doesn't she."

His bluntness slices through the hair and hits me in my heart.

"I guess there are similarities between us. I didn't notice."

I shrug it off but I can tell Obi-Wan still is thinking about it. I guess that might be why I am so interested in her. Slavery is something you never lose and it can bond people when there is nothing else in common.

"Rex, keep an eye on her, and when she wakes up give her something to drink. I'm gonna pilot the ship off-world."

"Got it, sir."

I wake up in a cell. This one is clean and barren. I get up and look out the front window. I see people out there.

*Bang* *Bang*

"Ayy, who's there? Where am I?"

"Back away from the door."

"Make me."

The door opens and two guys that look alike enter. One thing Count Dooku did do to convince me was show me something. I get into a stable stance and push my hands forward. They fly back and hit the wall. I grab one of their guns and run out of the door. I sneak around a hallway and I see more of them.

"Hey, where are you supposed to be."

"Probably in my cell."

"General Skywalker, General Kenobi, the prisoner has escaped."

I run the opposite way. I pass by many of these clones. I set the gun to stun. I don't want to hurt them, I just want out. More and More start running after me. I push them back with the force. I shoot a couple with a stun. Shoot. Anakin and the other one are at the end of the hall. I run straight towards the original ones I was running from. I push them back then do a flip over them. Anakin gains on me. I keep running and stun more and more. I eventually see an open area and out of nowhere a bunch of clones surrounds me. So does Anakin and the one with an accent.

"You really thought you could escape."

"No, but it doesn't hurt to try."

I drop the gun and look at everyone around me.

"So am I your prisoner?"

"You think."

We walk back to the cell.

"So Anakin, I never really had an option did I."

"You did, and you chose the wrong one."

"So my options went with you or go with you. That doesn't seem fair."

"No you had the option of going with me as a prisoner or an ally, you chose prisoner."

"Well then, that makes it so much better."

He puts me in the cell and joins me on the bench.

"Now is your opportunity to ask me questions. In return, I get to ask you a few, deal?"

"Ok, I'll start what is up with that ginger. He is always so serious."

"What, Obi-Wan. Hahaha. I ask that question every day. My turn, why do you need help from Count Dooku, I know you said power, but why?"

"Wow, straight to the meat. Well, Queen Scintel took someone from me. And I… I don't know."

I can't believe I told him that. I can see in his eyes the shock from my honesty.

"That is enough questions for now, can you leave me please."

"Yeah, I'll talk to you later."
