Aftermaths.
Are you sure we should be doing this? If Captain Panaka were to find us....
whispered Galak. Dane shot him a warning glance.
Shh! Quiet, or they'll here us. She hissed back.
The young Gungan beside them shifted, finding it hard to hide his taller frame behind the small, white flowered hedge. But you is supposed to be at work, no? he asked uneasily. How many times do I have to say, Toba? It's you are, not you is. said Galak.
Well, are I right, you are supposed to be at work now? the Gungans voice was getting shriller,and louder now. Why do I bother? muttered Galak, as Dane tried to placate Toba. Cos you is a finicky, perfectionist, bossy scalefish'? said Toba innocently. Galak elbowed him in the ribs. Ouch! Mesa only saying what Dane always say!squealed the gungan. Dane laughed nervously and turned away to watch the Jedi once more.
Oh! They're gone! she exclaimed. They turned around and set their backs against the wall opposite. Why you think they still here? asked Toba, stretching out his long legs. I don't know. Governor Bibble says that we are safe now the Trade Federation has gone, but then why are the Jedi still here, if there is no trouble? Galak looked troubled.
Maybe they are uneasy to go,after their Master was slain. Or maybe their council ordered them to stay,I don't know. Maybe there is some trouble still on Naboo, some adventures still to have ! said Dane.
I seriously doubt it. Besides, if we ever did get caught up in such adventures, I don't suppose we would last a minute. Galak told her.
Don't be so pessimistic! Dane turned to Toba, And we'll fly off in a starship to Coruscant, and the Jedi will say that we are strong in the force,and we'll become Jedi, like them, and be heroes!
Maybe because of his sensitive Gungan hearing, Toba was the first one to notice the figures stepping out of the bushes behind them. The others, after realising that Toba had turned and frozen in his tracks, turned slowly around too, fearful of what they might find there - maybe captain Panaka.
Galak was the first one to speak , Um....we're sorry sir.... for...well....we should be going now.... He meant to move away. but his legs would not move, they were frozen with fear and awe.
In front of the three friends stood the adult Jedi, and his young Padawan.
You were watching us? the Jedi, Obi-Wan Kenobi asked with a hint of amusement in his voice. Toba fidgeted, Dane blushed, while Galak seemed to be frozen with shock.
The straight faced Padawan suddenly broke into a grin. His master smiled down at them, Please, don't be afraid. Curiosity is not a sin. He leaned down closer to the children. Just make sure that it doesn't get you into trouble.
He smiled again and walked away. His apprentice lingered a moment, and then sprinted off after him.
asked Anakin.
Yes, Anakin? Obi-wan turned to the young boy. Anakin didn't need to voice what he was thinking. Of course you may.
