A/N Chp 3! Hope ya like it!
Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon fought off the driods, with some difficulty seeing as two teenage girls had latched themselves to their arm.
Kae was spending this time wishing she had some sort of a weapon. She really wanted some type of blaster, lightsaber, or anything that might make her less of a moving target. She was holding onto Obi-Wan for dear life, which was probably the only bit of this she didn't much mind. Kae began to clench a fist, and felt something in her hand. She looked down to find a somewhat scorched javelin still in her hand.
"Oh, just my luck," she scowled, decided to help the Jedi out. She speared one of the druids, hitting the self-destruct button.
"Good aim." The older Jedi said, grabbing Bekah's wrist and turning to run down a hallway. Obi-Wan did the same to Kae, who was trying to pull her javelin out of the wall.
"Come on," he said, following his mentor. Kae shrugged, it wasn't everyday that she got to follow someone that cute around.
"Obi-Wan, take one of the girls and stow inside one of the transports," Qui-Gon said, a few minutes later after helping both girls out of an air vent.
"Yes Master," Obi-Wan said, taking Kae's wrist once again and pulling her with him. "Oh, Master," he said, a goon natured smile escaping his lips, "you were right about one thing. The negotiations were short."
"The negotiations were short..." Bekah mocked, receiving a glare from the Jedi. "Whaaaat?"
"Lets go," Qui-Gon said calmly, pulling Bekah along with him.
"Follow me, and stay low," Obi-Wan told Kae.
"Oh? Like I don't know the art of sneaking? Come one, I've stalked many a person and NEVER been caught."
"Alright, then just be quiet."
"Oh right. I knew that."
Once they were both safely aboard the carrier, well, as safe as one can be while on a ship full of rather hostile droids, but anyway, now that they were both on the ship, Kae began to relax.
"Are we going to Naboo?" she asked quietly.
"I assume so. How did you get in the middle of that?" Obi-Wan asked.
"Just a habit of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Rather annoying skill." Kae shrugged.
"I see. Well, I am Obi-Wan Kenobi."
"I know that."
"What?"
"I heard Qui--- um, the other guy."
"Oh. Right."
"My name is Kae Lowe. Not to be confused with J.Lo."
"Excuse me?"
"Don't ask."
"I won't."
"Hey! What's this?" Kae picked up a rather large datapad with a thing plastic cover with the words "Don't Panic" written on it in large white friendly letters.
"This? It's only the most wholly remarkable book written in the entire universe. It's "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Republic". My mentor and I are researchers for it." Obi-Wan explained, twirling the hilt of his lightsaber in his hand giving of the impression that he was rather bored.
"How interesting."
The most useful thing a hitchhiker in the Galactic Republic can have, according to the Guide, it a lightsaber. A lightsaber, it says, is a wonderfully useful tool. It is able to slice through almost every known substance, including duristeel emergency doors, as well as flesh and bone. Besides that fact that it is incredibly deadly weapon, it is also useful for other things. If someone would see a lightsaber, they would instantly assume that you were a Jedi or Sith, and in turn, treat you with the respect that you deserve, so to speak, and assume that you are also in the possession of a aqua breather, rope, energy and food capsules, and will lend you one if you "run out." Also, a lightsaber can be used for emergency medical attention, as when the blade strikes something, it instantly cauterizes the wound, and stops the bleeding. Of course, one would need to seek actual medical attention soon afterward.
Unfortunately, the only way to obtain a lightsaber is to 1) Make one with your Jedi/Sith mentors 2) kill a Jedi/Sith and take his 3) Beg until they give in. Number 3 never works.
The Guide also says that if you are not able to receive a lightsaber, then next most useful thing you can have, is a towel.
A/N Ok, i swear that I'll make the chapters longer after this!
