Anuvuin: episode #36 The Jedi vs. Maul and The Capture of the Viceroy

Part 2

Previously: They enter the Palace via the hanger. The pilots took off, as well as Anakin. Anakin had destroyed the destroyer droids and had taken off. No one noticed when he took off. Just before they enter the palace, Darth Maul jumps out and Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon begin to fight him. The 2 other groups take the long way around.

Mrs. Solo in disguise with a group of other people has already started on their route. Amidala and Panaka with their people take a side hallway. Neither group runs into much trouble until they reach the main floor. (I'm shortening all of the parts up, if you don't mind) Rune Haako and Nute Gunray step out with their guard's weapons pointed at Amidala's group.

Amidala says, "Put down your weapons, they win this round."

Amidala's is hoping that they'll lead her to the throne room, which is exactly where they want to go. Rune Haako and Nute Gunray along with their guards lead them inside the throne room with the doors still up. Mrs. Solo in disguises' group appears further down the hallway.

The Federation Leaders say, "After her, this one's a decoy!"

All the guards run for the fake Queen Amidala. As soon as they leave, Amidala goes over to her throne and opens a secret compartment on her throne arm and pulls out some blasters. She throws them to the people with her on her side.

"Captain!" she says throwing one of him. "Seal the door."

"Now," she says after Panaka does this, "We will discuss a new treaty."

Rune and Nute know that they have been tricked ad can do nothing about it. They held the Federation leaders at gunpoint. Now onto the Jedi. They have all just ignited their lightsabers.

You're no match for me!" yells Maul.

Obi-Wan and qui-Gon remain as calm as possible, they start to fight. Darth Maul is quick, there's no doubt about it, but this is nothing the Jedi can't handle, they know. Maul fights Obi-Wan with one side of the lightsaber and Qui-Gon with the other. Darth Maul gets a nasty idea. He surveyed the place enough to decide where would be a good place where he would clearly have the advantage. HE decided on leading them to the deadliest part in the whole place. Maul does several flips and once he even kicked Qui-Gon down. Anyway, they are now fighting on a ledge when Obi-Wan goes for an attack. Maul blocks it and kicks Obi-Wan off the ledge. Qui-Gon continues to fight Maul.

"This man is pure evil," thinks Qui-Gon.

Maul is thinking, "at last I get to kill Jedi!"

Darth Maul runs to the place he has chosen for killing them…behind a series of deadly red lasers in an area with a deep pit. Qui-Gon runs after him, but doesn't quite make it through all the lasers. The lasers come on every couple of minutes…30 seconds they're on, then 30 seconds they're off. There's a safe place between the different lasers. The last one stopped qui-Gon. Obi-Wan uses the Force to hop him jump to the level his friend Qui-Gon is on to help him, but he is stopped just after the first one. Darth Maul smiles meanly at the Jedi. Qui-Gon kneels down and prays. The 2 minutes are soon up and the lasers come down. Qui-Gon runs and is now in the same room as Darth Maul. Obi-Wan runs as fast and as hard as he can, but those 30 seconds are soon up and the last laser stops him. Obi-Wan is forced to watch helplessly as Qui-Gon fights Maul. After 20 seconds of clashing swords, on Qui-Gon's next attack, Darth Maul draws back meanly, and instead of using the end of the double lightsaber he normally would (both sides are still ignited), he lunges the other side into Qui-Gon with a fast movement.

"No!!!" screams Obi-Wan as Qui-Gon falls to the floor.

Just then the 30 seconds are up and Obi-Wan rushes out. This really made Obi-Wan mad, but he held his anger in check as he strove to only use the Force for defense. It wasn't as if Darth Maul were trying to turn Obi-Wan over to the Dark Side or something, because he wasn't. That thought never crossed his mind. Why should it…Obi-Wan had about the same level of Force as Maul. It wasn't strong or anything. Just high average. Anyway, Obi-Wan went after Maul with a sense of determination for stood. Obi-Wan could tell that Qui-Gon was not dead yet, but the wound was probably fatal and he didn't have much time left.

Until next time!
