A/N: HI! Yes, at last, Chapter 3! Sorry. My computer's been very sick for a
while so while I was getting it fixed (Luckily it was only the Power source
that was damaged and not the drives) I couldn't write. So now I'm working
my ass off to churn out the fics. I also had to move house a couple months
ago so things were kinda hectic. Then I had a lot of schoolwork and now I'm
in the middle of exams. Oh well, I only do six subjects and all I have left
are History, Biology Paper 2, English, Afrikaans, History of Art, Geography
and Art practical (I HAVE TO BLOODY DRAW FOR SIX BLOODY HOURS!!! *pants
heavily, pulling hair from scalp*.)
Anyway, I'll let y'all get onto this chapter that you've been waiting seven months for.

Two months later.
Jake stood with his 'lightsaber', really just a practice stick Jedi trainees used, crossed with Jacen's. He extended his senses as he'd learned, trying to guess where Jacen would strike. He did, Jake blocked the blow easily before striking at the other boy. Jacen leaped into the air in a somersault over Jake and connected his 'lightsaber' with Jake's stomach. Jake laughed. "Man, you always get me." Jacen smiled at him. "That's cause you're so predictable." He dodged the playful punch Jake sent in his direction and aimed one at the other boy's stomach. Jake yelped and jumped backwards, tripping over a rock and landing flat on his behind.
"Hey shut up!" Jake said as Jacen doubled over with laughter.
"Sorry. I can't help it. That was classic." Jacen managed to get out in between gasps through his chuckles.
Jake leapt to his feet and tackled Jacen in a football move, connecting with the other's midsection and sending both of them sprawling into a mud pool left after the previous night's rain.
"Are you two finished?" Came an irritated female voice. The two boys looked up into the disapproving face of Jaina, Jacen's twin sister.
Jacen chucked a handful of mud at her, which splattered on her robes and face.
"JACEN!!!" She yelled at him over the two boys' sniggers. "Uncle Luke says he needs to speak to both of you. It's important. He'll be in the surveillance" She stormed off in a huff.
The boys sobered. "That doesn't sound good." Jake said, shaking muddy hair from his eyes. "What do you think he wants?"
Jacen shrugged at him, climbing out of the mud hole and wiping off as much mud as he could. Jake did the same before the two picked up their forgotten practice sticks and put them away. Then they headed for their Master.

"Uncle Luke?"
"Master Skywalker?"
The two tentatively poked their heads through the door of the surveillance room. Luke looked up with a quick smile that faded almost instantaneously. "Jacen, Jake." He motioned them to his side.
"What's up, Uncle Luke?" Jacen asked worriedly. Luke seemed even more troubled than usual.
Luke gestured to the screen. "These readings came in from Coruscant a while ago. It seems that an unidentified fleet of ships has appeared on planet Umgul near the Outer Rim. They seem to be using the planet as a rest stop. They look.they're familiar to an image Obi-Wan showed me before you arrived, Jake."
Luke pointed at a picture of one of the ships. Jake felt a bucket of cold ice descend in his stomach. There was no forgetting that dark ship that was shaped like a battle axe.
"The Blade Ship."

Hahaa! Another chapter finished. I'd have made it longer but I REALLY have to get back to Mussolini, Fascism and Hitler's Foreign Policy.
Shani: Awww. Do we have to? Kitsu: Yeah. I wanna find another plot bunny. Me: Guys, please act your ages, not your shoe sizes. Kitsu: *holds up a paw* But I'm a fox. I don't have shoes. Me: *slaps forehead* Chiraki!!! Can't go rent a few movies to keep everyone busy while I study? Chiraki: *sighs* All right. Shani: I want Shrek! Kitsu: Fox and the Hound! Alaki and Kaelin: Shakespeare in Love! Tosaki and Joren: Chocolat! Ken: Nah, I wanna play soccer! Yohji: I'm going clubbing. Aya and Omi: *Busy making out on the couch, oblivious* Blaze and Argo: Get a National Geographic Special on wolves. Everyone: *Blinks at them* Blaze: What? Is it wrong to want to know about one's own species? Puff and Xarren: We'll go chase butterflies. Me: No! You are two bloody 30 foot dragons! I am NOT letting you go and terrorise the villagers again! Trellen: I don't mind. Any movie. Just don't get anything too violent.
*Sigh*. 16 muses. Gotta love em.
