1.1.1.1.1.3 Gone Again Part 2
Qui-Gon watched helplessly as his Apprentice fell the hundreds of meters to the thrashing waters. He took one last glance down at Ona's still form lying on the beach. Taken out by a reflect laser fire they wouldn't have to be worrying about her.
Qui-Gon deactivated his lightsaber and ran towards the crashing waves. The water was icy cold as he dove down and swam towards the bottom of the cliff. Qui-Gon's heart twisted as he realized Obi-Wan wasn't on the surface.
Qui-Gon dove down and through his now stinging eyes immediately spotted Obi- Wan slowly sinking down deeper into the murky depths.
The impact to the water had stunned him and put the boy's body into shock.
Qui-Gon brought Obi-Wan to the surface and swam as fast as he could to the shore.
The Padawan coughed and gasped for air as he was laid out onto on the sand.
Qui-Gon looked up at the cliff to see only Sage's lightsaber lit on top.
She quickly scaled down the mountain and ran over. "Is Obi-Wan alright?" she asked catching her breath.
"Just give him a few minutes." Qui-Gon said taking off his soaking wet cloak. It was wet, but it still kept him warm. He handed it to Obi-Wan's shivering form. "Where did Garmandi go?"
Sage sighed. "I gather to get Z off the planet. He jumped down into the sea."
Qui-Gon bent down to Obi-Wan who sat up. "You think you can swim to the city? High tide has come."
Obi-Wan shook his head affirmatively and stopped immediately as he winced at a bit of pain. He tried to stand up, but wavered slightly. Sage and Qui-Gon steadied him as they took out their breathers.
Sage looked out over the ocean. "We've got to get to Z before Garmandi gets out of the city."
*****
Obi-Wan felt weak. He didn't know hitting water could do so much damage. His head spun and every bone ached with the slightest movement. Swimming to the city was a task and he didn't want to think about running into Garmandi.
No sooner had the thought left Obi-Wan's mind, then they turned around a corner to find the insane Master standing in the middle of a long narrow hallway. Z was in one hand and instead of his lightsaber, a blaster was held in the other. Showdow stood behind, with both arms crossed, glaring at Z.
Obi-Wan was terrified at how Zae-Non looked. She could barely stand herself up and her face was almost white. The glimmer in her eye that always brightened her smile was gone. She gave him a helpless glance and stared at the floor as though it was too much to keep her head up.
The three Jedi ignited their lightsabers in unison and Obi-Wan glanced at Qui-Gon. No words were exchanged, but a plan was formed. Obi-Wan took a step forward and went to take another. He froze as Garmandi took the blaster that was pointed at them and turned it to Zae-Non.
"I'd think about finishing that step." Garmandi warned. "You know I don't care if she dies or not and you very well know I'll do it."
Obi-Wan put his foot down and thought. He knew Garmandi would rather protect himself than Z. As he said he didn't care if Z died or not.
*But what if he didn't have time to kill her before protecting himself?*
On that thought Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon rushed towards Garmandi. He thrusted Z back to Showdow who nearly dragged her down the hall and around the corner. He fired the blaster and ran down that hall at lightening fast speed, but as he reached the corner the blaster fire stopped and Obi-Wan saw the blaster fly over his head. He whirled around to see Sage holding the weapon. She tossed it into the air and sliced it with her lightsaber in a graceful arc.
Garmandi took out his lightsaber and ran down the hall back towards them. The hall was small and not much could be done dueling. The walls were getting scortched and it was hard to maneuver.
Garmandi kicked out towards Obi-Wan who jumped out of the way. The Master's foot hit the wall with a hollow thud.
After straightening he deactivated his lightsaber and let out a bone chilling laugh. "There is no point to this dispute. This little mining country is going to blow up anyway. You know me and my ways with explosives. Even if you find them there's no way to evacuate this entire city. You Jedi and your hearts for other people."
"Where did you put them?" Qui-Gon demanded.
"That's half the fun. You have to find them." With one last laugh he dashed off around the corner and out of site.
Qui-Gon deactivate his saber and sighed deep and heavy. "There's always the possibility he is lying, but we can't risk that."
"And he's still got Z." Sage said. "But what I really want to know is where would he hide explosives in this place."
"Explosives?!" Someone shouted from behind them. Obi-Wan turned around to see Bailee standing at the end of the hall where Garmandi had just ran out.
Qui-Gon quickly explained everything that had just happened, then curiosity curled onto his face. "How did you get away from Brice?"
Bailee shrugged. "I don't know, he was opening the door to my room when he got a call on his comlink. The next thing I know he was down the hall and my door was wide open."
"This isn't our worry right now." Sage reminded them. "We have to figure out where he put these explosions if there are any!"
Obi-Wan didn't know the structure of the city too well. They hadn't even been there an hour, but something bothered him.
*When Garmandi kicked the wall.*
Obi-Wan walked over to the wall and knocked on it with his fist.
It sounded hollow...
He took his lightsaber and cut a clean hole into the durasteel not caring about the looks he got from his Master, Sage and Bailee.. He pushed on the weakened area and it flung inward to the ground with a clatter. Stepping through the hole Obi-Wan only needed the little light given off by his lightsaber to see that the small area was packed with explosives all hooked up to a main detonator laying in the middle. It was set to go off in nine minutes.
Qui-Gon and Sage bent down into the room and both inspected the main device. Sage stood up and shook her head. "There's no diffusing this. If we try it'll just go off sooner."
Bailee stood in the doorway staring in at the three. "Wait, so your saying in eights minutes this whole structure is gone?"
Obi-Wan nodded. This reminded him of the time he first met Qui-Gon. He hadn't been his Padawan, but they were both on Bandomeer. They were stuck in a mine that was going to blow up, but it never did because they had ionite there. Ionite causes a neutral charge, which stops mechanical devices including bomb timers.
Obi-Wan looked up to find Bailee gone. "Where'd she go?" he asked, but he didn't get an answer. Bailee ran in and plopped a bag onto the floor.
"Wow we are really lucky." She said. "They mine ionite here!"
Obi-Wan sighed in relief and took the bag. He handed it to Qui-Gon who surrounded the detonator with the bars of the mineral and stood up. "Bailee, you need to find someone and tell them about this."
She nodded and ran off once again.
And now to find Z.
Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon and Sage ran off down the hall where Garmandi had disappeared. At the end there was another hall. They ran to the semi- permiable layer of the bubble and Obi-Wan looked up to the surface. It was lightened by the rising sun. He looked down to his left and saw turbolifts heading to the mine and looked to his right. Showdow stood there, Z in his hands, Garmandi behind them.
"You're more trouble than it's worth!" Garmandi shouted taking out an electro jabber. He swung it back and delivered a hard blow to Z's side. He gave her two more hard hits before not so nicely, shoving her into a hanger with a bunch of underwater submersibles.
Garmandi jumped in to a submersible and dragged Z in after him, like a rag doll. Showdow turned around and gave Obi-Wan an evil smile before leaping in as well. Obi-Wan ran to the door, which shut as the ship entered out into the water, and watched helplessly as Garmandi took off towards the sunlit surface.
"No!" he screamed. He once again had let Garmandi get away.
::evil smile:: I don't get myself sometimes… must I always do that? Yup!
Just wanna say thanx to the like THREE no wait FOUR ppl that reviewed last time… come on if u want a story I'd really like to know what u think of it… please!!!!!
