Anuvuin: episode #23 The Gungan City and escape to the Ships
Previously: Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan have now met up with Jar
Jar Binks. Palpatine and unnamed other
person (if you can't guess who it is, you'll find out later) have made sure that
the Republic pilots do not tell the Supreme chancellor about the
Invasion. Palpatine says he'll do it
himself. We'll get back to this subject
later.
"One
other thing, yousa saved my life. That means I owes you a life debt. It is the law here."
Qui-Gon Jinn nods as a couple of Gungan
guards head their way.
One of them approaches Jar Jar on a weird
king of animal (no, it's to a Bantha), "Jar Jar, yousa in big trouble this
time."
One of them pokes him with a stick.
"Ow! How rude!" Says Jar Jar.
The guards ignore him as qui-Gon steps
forward.
"WE need your
help."
The second guard
says, "yous going to the Boss."
The guards led
Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, and Jar Jar to Boss Nass' throne.
Qui-Gon says,
"The Naboo are in a lot of trouble. We need your help."
"Mesas not care about the Naboo…they the ink
their heads so big…"
Obi-wan an steps forward, "but you are
connected. What happens to one affects the other. You must understand this."
But Boss Nass is still not swayed. Qui-Gon's
sees that talk isn't going to work, or that they'll get any help form him.
"Maybe he has a weak mind, " the thinks.
So, Qui-Gon says,
"Thanks for your time. We need some
kind of transport to get us tout her."
It works, and Boss Nass says, "all right, you
can take a bongo through the planet core. Its' the fastest way to the Naboo."
Qui-Gon gives him a little smile.
"Thank you."
Then Obi-Wan
says, "How are we going to get through? WE need some kind of navigator."
Qui-Gon nods in agreement, remembering
something.
"I saved Jar Jar Binks's life. He owes we what you call a life debt."
Boss Nass says, "Fine, take him."
So the 3 of them set off together for the
planet core. They run into some big
monsters, but get away. (I'm leaving those details out.) Finally they reach the surface of the
water. All there jump out in search of
Queen Amidala and her people. (I
suppose I'll have to have the Padmé thing in, I was originally going to leave
that part out, but okay, I'm not going to.) Anyway, remember, those people are being led away by the battle
droids. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan can hear
the battle droid moving. They move in
for a closer view.
"Master, I think that's them' says
Obi-Wan.
"This way," his master says in reply.
They jump down,
activating their lightsabers as they go down. Obi-Wan and his master slash trough the droids and kill off ever
one of them.
Then Qui-Gon
says, "We're the ambassadors for the Supreme Chancellor."
Panaka says, "Your negotiations seem to have
failed."
"The negotiation never took place. They tried killing us. We have to contact
the Republic."
"They've cut down all our communication
systems. "
qui-Gon nods.
"Well have to go to Coruscant then."
Captain Panaka
stares at Qui-Gon, "that'll be dangerous."
Queen Amidala looks to her handmaiden (the
Queen's protectors) Padmé.
"We are brave,
your highness."
So Amidala says, "all right, I'll plead our
case to the Senate."
Panaka says, "There's a few ships…this way!"
So they run to the ships.
"We'll have to
free that pilot over there."
(He points to a pilot being held captive by
battle droids.)
"I'll take care of that," says Obi-Wan.
Qui-Gon nods as he approaches a ship.
A battle droid stops him.
"I'm taking this
people to Coruscant," says qui-Gon.
"Where are you
taking them?"
"To Coruscant."
"That doesn't compute. You're under arrest."
The battle droids starts to fire the gun, but
Qui-Gon slashes through it, Meanwhile, Obi-Wan is attacking the battle droids
holding the pilot Ric Olie. Obi-Wan
manages to destroy all of them. Ric
runs over to his ship. (The one Qui-Gon
and ante rest of the are at.) T hey all
bard, an after destroying the rest of the droids. There is one droid that's still walking on its' legs, but the
rest of it is destroyed. Obi-Wan almost
laughs, and would have if they didn't have the blockade to get past.
Until next time!
