Boba Fett searched the entire clearing and found no clue as to where the ship was going. "Well, I have to find out where they are going, and to do that I have to know who I'm dealing with," he said to himself. As he was heading back to his ship he came upon something he had missed on his search. There, written in the ground, was a message.
Go To Telos.
He stared in astonishment. 'I don't believe I'm seeing this,' he thought. He turned and walked a few steps. Taking a deep breath to clear his mind, he turned to look at the message another time. He blinked, then blinked again. Where the message was, was now only a smooth patch of dirt.



Anakin woke with a start. 'How long had he been asleep?' The door banged open and Jasper entered, followed by the strange man. "Get up," he ordered. Slowly, Anakin obeyed. "So," the man jeered. "You sent your brother and sister a message. I hope they got it." He grabbed Anakin's wrist and pulled him along. As they stepped off the ship into the docking bay, Anakin was aware of the feeling of fear that seemed to be everywhere. He realized that it was fear of this strange man. Who was he anyway? He still didn't know, and he didn't like it. Not one bit.



The ships had just made the jump into hyperspace when they received a message from Han and Leia. "Have you found anything new?" Leia asked anxiously. "Do you know where he is?" Han asked at the same time. Luke couldn't help it. He started laughing. "What? What is it?" Leia asked. "Nothing," he said, still chuckling. Then he sobered. "There's nothing new, but, we think we know where Anakin is." he replied. "We believe they're headed for Telos."



"Telos!? Why Telos?" Han asked. "Because," Luke answered, "That's where Crion grew up, and where his father and grandfather grew up. It's his true home." "So," Han said, "We're going to Telos. Do you have the coordinates?" "Yes, I'll send them to you. Hold on." Luke leaned over and punched the proper keys. "There you go. We'll meet you there in about, five hours." "Okay, but Luke, please be careful," Leia said. Luke smiled. "I will, Leia. Don't worry."



Boba Fett sat in the pilot seat of his ship wondering where the strange message had come from. 'How had it gotten there without him seeing it?' he wondered. "Well, I guess I'll have to find out," he said aloud. "I guess I'm going to Telos."



Anakin stood defiantly in front of the strange man he now knew was a dark Jedi named Crion. "I won't," he yelled. "You'll pick up that lightsaber and fight me or else I'll make you," Crion said, a cruel smile crossing his face. "Now, pick it up!" "No!" Anakin yelled. Crion let out an angry yell and lunged at Anakin, his double-bladed lightsaber hissing as it came down toward Anakin's chest.
