"Oh my god....." Padme breathed.
She stood still as a statue, her gaze fixed upon the fastly approaching ships.
Then, she saw something she recognised.
Palpatine's shuttle.
"Sith." She muttered.
From behind her, she vaguely heard the door open.
But she was lost in thought.
~But what of the jedi? they're not here, not even close....~
Padme closed her eyes.
She heard footsteps from behind her.
Someone behind her, then hands gently placed on her shoulders.
Then, the gasp.
Padme shifted her head slightly.
"Ani, where are the Jedi? That's Palpatine right there," she said pointing towards the ship, "And they Jedi aren't here."
"They..They going to leave us here, Padme." Anakin said, stumbling over the words.
"What?!"
Anakin nodded.
"H..How?" Padme pleaded.
Anakin turned away, "They just can....Come on, we should go inside."
With one more glance upwards, Padme quickly followed him indoors....
Downstairs, she saw Obi-wan and Leera looking over a holo chart, that showed the many ships hovering not too far away.
When Obi-wan heard them walk into the room, he looked up, and nodded, "Good, your safe." he said.
Padme stomped forward, "Master Kenobi, why aren't the jedi here?!" she askedsomewhat angrily.
Obi-wan sighed, "I am sorry Mi'lady, but the council fears that all this is a trap, and we're the bait."
Leera looked up and the three of them, her face pale.
"No." she whspered.
Obi-wan, Anakin, and padme all stared at here.
"Why then?"
"It's...It's a double motive, yes, he can kill out the jedi if they come, but he's looking for someone...An..an apprentice, I think he said...." Leera explained.
Obi-wan stared over at Anakin, then back towards Leera, "Yes, but who?"
Leera shrugged.
"I guess we're going to find out." Anakin said, as the roar of ships could be heard above them.
Obi-wan turned to a large crate that rested on the floor.
Quickly, he pulled the top off.
Inside lay a collection of blasters.
Obi-wan picked out a few and threw them to Padme and Leera.
From the door upstairs, a knock could be heard.
A mechanical voice, coming from behind a helmet could be heard.
"You are ordered by the Emperor himself to open up."
A pause, and the four downstairs kept deathly quiet.
"I repeat, you are ordered by the Emperor to open up." the voice repeated.
Obi-wan drew a finger to his lips, sinalling their small group to remain quiet.
Footsteps could be heard moving away.
"Okay, Anakin, you stay with me, Leera and Padme, try and stay someplace safe."
They nodded, and Anakin withdrew his saber from his belt, and turned to Padme and quickly kissed, then turned back to Obi-wan.
Obi-wan nodded, and began to make his way up the stairs.
At the top of the stairs, Obi-wan side-stepped to one side, and Anakin did the same on the other side.
They both had their Sabers drawn and ready to attack.
A knock came to the door once more.
Obi-wan nodded to Anakin, and in unsion, they spun around and Obi-wan hit the door swich.
The door slid open, and Anakin and Obi-wan stood there, sabers running, and Anakin sliced through a very shocked storm trooper.
A few other Strom troopers who had been standing to the side whirled around, weapons raised.
"That's them there!"one of the troopers yelled, and opened fire upon the two Jedi.
Obi-wan whipped his lightsaber up, and blocked the bolts, sending them flying back at the troopers.
One by one they fell, till the small band of 4 or 5 of them lay in the sand.
Caustisously, the two Jedi turned around, surveyng to see if any more troopers or other surprizes awaited them.
The sound of air decompressing from behind the cause both Ani and Obi-wan to spin around.
A few hundred feet away, Palpatine's shuttle had landed....
___________
A/N: really sorry so short.....I promise to update in the next couple days, and this next one should be reeaaallly long.. :)
Any guesses on who Palpatine wants? Anyone? If not, then you will soon see, but I'm kinda curious to see if anyone has any guesses...
Thanks again, and please review!
Hope you all like this next chapter!
