The Trials
"Sir, this is Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi and his apprentice Anakin Skywalker." Ben told the governor. The governer was a man of a height just over 6'0, somewhat overweight, with red curly hair, and a face that said do your job and get out.
"Welcome I'm Governor Rhodes Hartman. I am most pleased you two have come to help with our situation please have a seat. Ben if you excuse us."
"Of course sir."
"Governor what exactly has been happening?" Obi-Wan asked.
"Well it all started when we decided to build a police station on a park. Well the people don't want us to because its some holy ground place to them and that it we built on it we would destroy the holy ground. Since then I have sent people to keep an eye on the place and only one comes back. I have lost 8 of my best people. I fear the people are doing something to them and plan to start civil war against us. That's why you're here to help with our problem."
Anakin didn't particularly like this guy he seemed creepy like he was hiding something but he didn't show any sign of that disliking feeling slip, he'd talk to Obi-Wan later about it.
"Well governor we will try our best to settle this problem. Do you think you could have someone show us the park?" Obi-Wan asked.
"I can't risk the life of anymore of my men but the park is one block over from the entrance you came in from. I wish you the best of luck while you're here and thank you again for coming."
"If you excuse us governor will go check out the park now." Obi-Wan said.
"Of course," the governor said.
Obi-Wan and Anakin left the room and headed out of the building.
"Their gone sir." Ben said. " Do you think they fell for it?"
"I think so. Are your men in the park ready?" "Yes sir, when the Jedi get there my men will capture them."
"Good and what of the governor?"
"Dead sir. He was trying to escape and we shot him."
"Good at least now we don't have to deal with him. What do you think of the Jedi?"
"They will be an entertaining show to watch. The younger Jedi didn't seem to trust you much."
"And he has every right not to." Said the supposable governor with an evil grim.

"Master, I don't trust the governor. I don't like him."
"Anakin the governor is just worried for his life all politicians are like that and anyway I didn't sense anything."
"Something about him says that he's hiding something and I know it's not my place to pass judgement on someone like that but something is telling me not to trust him."
Obi-Wan stopped walking and so did Anakin. Obi-Wan faced towards Anakin.
"Anakin as you just said it's not your place to pass judgement and you don't even know the governor. While here Anakin on anyone we meet you will not pass judgement on them till you get to know them am I understood?"
"Yes Master."
Obi-Wan started walking again and Anakin slowly followed behind. They reached the park and it was completely empty.
"This is eerie. For a park there sure aren't that many people. None for that fact."
"Anakin do you sense something."
"No, why?"
Just as Anakin said that a blaster shot came within inches of hitting Anakin right in the head. Obi-Wan grabbed Anakin by the arm and went to safety.
"Anakin are you ok?''
"Yes Master."
"The shooter is in the building farthest to the left. You will sneak around back and come from behind I'll go from the front."
"Yes Master."
Anakin went around the corner and noticed a window was open with a ladder underneath it from where he supposed the shooter climbed up. He climbed up and climbed through the window and noticed a somewhat short chubby male. Anakin started walking towards him and when he was about to jump on him he stepped on a squeaky wooden board. The man turned around and faced the gun at him and Anakin reached down to get his lightsaber realizing it wasn't there. Anakin thought to himself *Obi-Wan's going to kill me. * Just as the man was about to shot Obi-Wan came from behind and knocked him out cold.
"Anakin...."
"I know. I know."
"Let's get back to the governor's. I believe his life is in danger."
Anakin hoped it was going to be a very long walk back to the governor's office. But Anakin's wish didn't come true they were back at the governor's within 5 minutes.
