Chapter 6: Underwater
Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Jar Jar and Jy Jy departed in the bongo, out of its docking bay and started travelling through the deep waters. "Dis is nutsen. Oh, gooberfish!" Jar Jar said, admiring the sea life. "Why were you banished, Jar Jar?" Obi-Wan asked. "It's a longo tale-o, buta a small part of it would be mesa…clumsy." Jar Jar said sadly. "You were banished because you were clumsy?" Obi-Wan asked. "Yousa might'n be sayin that." Jar Jar said. "Here, mesa tell yousa da rest." Jy Jy said.
Just then, as they continued, an Opee Sea Killer emerged from its camouflaged spot on a sea stack and swam after them. "Jar Jar caused mabbe one, two-y lettle bitty axadentes. Yud-say boom da gassar, den crashin der boss's heyblibber, den banished." Jy Jy explained. Just then, the Opee Sea Killer stuck out its frog tongue and snagged the bongo. "Wuh-oh!" Jar Jar and Jy Jy cried as the Opee Sea Killer pulled the bongo into its mouth. "Opee! Opee!" Jy Jy shrieked. "Big gooberfish! Huge-o teeth!" Jar Jar exclaimed. As the Opee Sea Killer began to swim away, a Sando Aqua Monster appeared and grabbed it in its mouth, making it free the bongo. "There's always a bigger fish." Qui-Gon said. "Mesa tink we goen back now." Jar Jar said. As the Sando Aqua Monster ripped off the Opee Sea Killer's head as it ate, the bongo continued into the caves.
Meanwhile, in the Droid Control ship, Gunray and Haako contacted Sidious. "The invasion is on schedule, my lord." Gunray said. "I have the senate bogged down in procedures. They will have no choice, but to accept your control of the system." Sidious said. "The queen has great fate that they will side with her." Gunray said. "Queen Amidala is young and naïve. You will find controlling her will not be difficult." Sidious said. "Yes, my lord." Gunray said as Sidious ended the transmission. "You didn't tell him about the missing Jedi." Haako said. "No need to report that to him until we have something to report." Gunray said. Unknown to them, someone was listening at the door before leaving.
Meanwhile, the bongo continued into the caves. "Where wesa goin?" Jar Jar asked. "Don't worry. The Force will guide us." Qui-Gon assured. "Da Force?" Jy Jy asked. "Oh, maxi big, da Force. Well, dat smells stinkowiff." Jar Jar said. Suddenly, an alarm started blaring. "Whasa?" Jy Jy asked. "We're losing power." Obi-Wan said. "Ohh no." Jar Jar whimpered. And in a second, the bongo powered down. "Dat Opee musa done some huge-o damage." Jy Jy said. "Wesa dyin' here!" Jar Jar sobbed. "Just relax. We're not in trouble yet." Qui-Gon assured. "What 'yet'?" Jar Jar asked as Obi-Wan tried to restore the power. "Monsters out dare. Leak'n in here. All sink'n and no power?! Whena yousa thinkin wesa in trouble?!" Obi-Wan finally managed to get the power back. "Power's back." But as the lights came on, they saw that they were face-to-face with an adult Colo Claw Fish! "AH! MONSTER'S BACK!" Jar Jar shrieked. "COLO! COLO!" Jy Jy shrieked. The Colo Claw Fish roared and gave chase as the bongo turned around towards the cave exit. Jar Jar was whimpering like a scared little bunny. "Relax." Qui-Gon said as he applied a grip to Jar Jar's shoulder, knocking him out. "You over did it." Obi-Wan said. As the Colo Claw Fish continued to chase the bongo all the way to the exit, the Sando Aqua Monster appeared again with its mouth wide open. Obi-Wan steered the bongo away from the mouth as the Sando Aqua Monster grabbed the Colo Claw Fish with it. "Horrible." Jar Jar mumbled as he recovered. "Head for that outcropping." Qui-Gon instructed. "Yousa okay, Jar Jar?" Jy Jy asked. "Oh, boy." Jar Jar blubbered as the bongo headed into an outcropping.
