A/N-Hey! Chapter 10 is up! YAY! I hope I did well with the Yoda dialogue.
That can be hard sometimes. . .
Anakin looked at the clock. 'Quarter of two,' he thought. He paged Obi- Wan.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Master. How are you?"
"Good. Are you almost ready?"
"Yes, I'm programming R2D2 right now." R2 chirped happily.
"Hello, R2," Obi-Wan said in reply.
"There. All set."
"Good, I'm on my way down to see the council. When I tell you, push the little green button on R2's side, and R2 will do the rest."
"Yes, Master."
"By the way, this meeting is not with the whole council. Just Master Yoda, Master Windu, and me. The rest of the council cannot make it. They will be informed of these events at a later date."
"Oh," Anakin said, sounding disappointed.
"Welcome, Obi-Wan," said a familiar voice in the background.
"Ok, Anakin, press the green button."
Anakin pressed the button and within a few moments, he could see a minute hologram of the three Jedi. They, too, could see him.
"Greetings, Young Skywalker," Yoda said.
"Hello, Master Yoda, Master Windu."
Sola, Jobal Padmé, and Ruwee entered the room and sat down on the couch to listen. They made sure to stay out of the area that the Jedi in Coruscant could see.
"Obi-Wan has told us about the bounty hunter, Tip Willis. Can you give anymore information pertaining to this alarming event?" Mace asked.
"Yes, after searching profusely, the Senator and I found that Tip Willis entered through a window, using an Analex droid to slice the glass."
"Ahhh, go on," Yoda told him.
"This morning, around 4:00, Naboo time, the Senator's two nieces, Ryoo and Pooja, were kidnapped. A tracking device was successfully attached to the ship."
"This is a complicated situation. Why would anyone want Senator Amidala's nieces?" Mace Windu said. He closed his eyes in deep thought. A few minutes later, he opened them, finding no more information than they already had.
Once Mace's eyes had re-opened, Yoda said, "Track this ship, your master will. As for you, Young Skywalker, protect the Senator, you must. Grave danger I fear in this mission."
"Look for anything that might tell you who is behind this kidnapping," Master Windu told Anakin. "May the force be with you." The blue hologram flickered and disappeared.
Anakin looked towards the couch, where Sola was letting out the sobs she had held back during the meeting. Jobal hugged her and told her, "Crying is good for the heart. Let it all out."
*****
Padmé and Anakin searched high and low in the room that had belonged to the girls. They found that Ryoo and Pooja's window had, too, been cut by an Analex droid, just like the hallway window. This time, though, the droid had the time to finish sealing the slits.
"R2 had no idea that anyone was in the house. He couldn't see into here! That's why he never woke us up!" Padmé suddenly exclaimed. It all made more sense now. "Good thing you woke up, or it might have been too late by the time we realized they were gone!" Padmé said to Anakin.
Anakin showed that he accepted, and was thankful, for the confidence- boosting compliment by pulling his wife in and kissing her. "Even if I hadn't been woken up by the force, my Master and the Council still would have found them," he said reassuringly, as he pulled her in for another sweet kiss.
They left the room to join the rest of their family in the kitchen. He could sense that everyone was worried. They sat in silence for about a half hour, but the beeping of Anakin's Communicator finally broke the silence. The sudden noise caused everyone to jump. Anakin answered his Communicator.
"Hello?"
"Anakin? This is Master Windu. Listen carefully. What I'm about to tell you is very important."
A/N-Sorry it's so short! I felt like ending it with a cliffie! *Smiles deviously* Aren't I evil??? Only 27 days until AOTC comes out on DVD & Video! YAY! The wait is driving me insane. *Looks around cautiously* Mwahahahahaha! *Turns to see the men in white coming towards her slowly* Juliette! HELP! They're back! No! I already told you that I don't need that straight jacket anymore! *Picks up stapler and chucks it at the men* I got to go before they catch me again and lock me in the little room! *Talks to self* although, I did like the padded walls, they were fun! Byeness! Look for chapter 11 soon!
