Chapter 3
Skye of the Jedi
Anakin was on board a transportation ship from Tatooine, to Alderaan. The man who was escorting him was sitting next to him, keeping a close eyes on him so that he didn't run away.
Anakin didn't have much of a choice though. He had a pair of metal locks on his hands that prevented him from doing anything. The escorter still didn't want to take any chances though. For some reason Anakin seemed to be a very valuable treasure.
"Are you feeling alright, boy?" The man asked in the middle of the trip.
Anakin was extremely cold. Because of this, his skin had turned an unnatural pale, and he felt awful.
"I'm... cold," he said in between shivers.
"I'll go get you a blanket," the man said, and got up and walked away.
He eventualy returned, throwing Anakin a ragged blanket, and walked off, leaving Anakin with a warning.
"If you try anything funny, boy," he said. "I wont hesitate to stun you."
He walked off and Anakin adjusted the blanket as best he could, considering his cuffs. He sat on the metal becnh by himself for a while, but soon enough a hooded figure walked over and sat next to him. It turned and looked at Anakin through the shadow of the hood, and then lowered it, revealing a white-haired girl with abnormal light blue eyes.
"Do you mind if I sit here?" She asked.
"A m.. man is sitting there," Anakin replied, still extremly cold.
"Whats wrong?" She asked. "Are you sick?"
Anakin looked at her with weak eyes and she seemed to know the answer.
"Well... can I get you anything?" She asked.
"A better blanket," Anakin mumbled.
She giggled a little and then stood up and reached under her cloak. Anakin could see under the part a blaster gun... but beside it was something cylinder shaped. He looked at it and she noticed where his gaze had waondered off to.
"Oh... do you know what that is?" She asked, but Anakin just continued looking. "It's a light-saber."
"Really?" Anakin asked, looking amazed. "This means... your a Jedi?"
She nodded her head. She closed her cloak, not wanting any other people around to notice because some people tended to be a bit rude when near a Jedi. She of course had pulle dout what she was looking for. It was a leather bag which looked full of something.
She opened it and pulled out a large brown bar and broke it in half.
"Would you like a piece?" She asked Anakin.
"What is it?" He replied.
"Oh...," she said. "You aren't from a city... are you?"
"I'm from Tatooine," Anakin said.
"Well," she said. "This is a candy from Coruscant, where I came from before I came to Tatooine."
She then looked like she remembered something important held out her hand.
"Oh," she said. "By the way, my name is Skye."
"Anakin," he said, pulling out cuffed hands from under his blanket.
She looked at Anakin with disbelieving eyes. "Your... your a slave?"
For the first time in years... Anakin felt so ashamed and disgraced that he felt he could die on the spot.
"Yes," Anakin said, turning his head to try and escape the shame.
"How?" She asked anxiously.
"I... was born one," he said, still not turning his head.
"I can't believe it," she said. "Are you an orphan?"
"No," Anakin said... sad memories of his morther flashing through his mind. "I was sold and seperated from my mother."
"How awful!" She said, her facial expression showing her disbelief and horror.
She then grabbed his chin and made his face turn towards hers. Her extremely light-blue eyes met his deep blue ones, and she looked into the depths.
"Anakin," she said. "I promise you that I will find a way to free you."
"I wish it were true," Anakin said. "But there is more than cuffs keeping in slavery."
"Even if I have to kill everyone on this ship," she said with a tone... unlike her own. "I will get you off here a free slave."
Anakin could feel the violence in her tone and suddenly became afraid...
