Jedi Apprentice #2: The Dark Apprentice: Xanatos
"Hello." He said simply, he pulled out a double-sided light-sabre, the most difficult light-sabre of them all. He must have been trained by.
The man next to Obi-wan stood up. "Xanatos!" he gasped.
"Qui-gon Jinn, what a pleasant surprise! I'm glad you're here to witness my little stunt, and when I'm done, your little meaningless lives will not man a thing, the darkness will swallow you all up.
"Ever since the mission on Telos, I have been plotting my revenge. Now, with the help my little army here,will I finally be able to avenge my father, to you known as Crion." He laughs.
Obi-wan stared in awe and horror as Qui-gon launched himself over to the next row of seats (That were unoccupied) and pulled out his own lightsabre.
"You always were aiming to high!" he said, "And you love the sound of your voice!"
"It's so damn sexy and alluring! Anyway, I have hijacked this ship and sent a cry for help to Coruscant. And, if you don't co-operate, I will crash this plane into Bandomeer this very second."
Obi-wan chose this time to question Xanatos. "Won't you get killed if you crash this ship you'll die!"
"A padawan go-getter. I seen your type before, not to be taken lightly."
"I'm no padawan." Obi-wan said. "I got sent back home!"
"Ah," Xanatos answered. "Those bleeding people, they cannot see the power within you while they use the force in the way they do, but we."
"Who's we?" Obi-wan answered.
"The darker side of the force, we use the force in such a way that we can see the power a mile away! Join us and we can show them who has the power and who hasn't."
"No!"
"Excuse me?"
"I said no, I am I not joining you!"
"I'm sorry, did I say you had a choice. Join me or you will die!"
"I'm sorry, but I'd rather die than join an egocentric little sh."
This seemed to hit a nerve, but he seemed to shake it off. "Language! Well, what ever you say. Kill him!"
His three cronies clicked their knuckles and walked over to the not- padawan. One of them lifted their sword and brought it down, but was stopped when he was cut in two by Qui-gon.
Xanatos was fuming. "Look old-man, this has nothing to do with you. Leave us!"
"This old-man has something to do with his padawan."
"WHAT!" Xanatos and Obi-wan said in unison.
"You heard me--" he stabbed the second crony in the stomach "--I feel that there is a connection bet--" he chopped the head of the third "--between us!"
"That's it!" Xanatos shouted. He turned and stormed out, and suddenly the ship has hurdling straight for the ground at a verticle angle.
"And, now for my disappearing act!" Xanatos opened the air vent and jumped down. They were only 1.5 miles from the ground, and would land in about 50 seconds.
People were screaming, and panic ensued. Ob-wan was shell-shocked that he had a master, but what to do about the ship.
"Can you fly?" Obi-wan shouted.
"Only if flying is falling!"
"I mean, this thing!"
"Oh, yes I can!"
Obi-wan staggered to the cockpit. He say the altitude was 0.75 miles. He crabbed the loystick and pulled it backwards, the ship didn't budge.
Obi-wan swore heavily and then notice the ignition was turned to "hold" he moved it to "manual" and then tried the joystick again. They were now 0.5 miles from the ground. The ship turned at a normal speed and it was about ninety-five degrees when it crashed to earth.
Smoke and fire enveloped the ship.

Obi-wan awoke with a start, he had been out for several minutes and he saw the fire everywhere.
He tried to stand up but his leg was caught inside the crushed body wor that was the front of the ship.
"Qui-lon!" he shouted.
"It's Qui-gon!" he moved a piece of debris out of the way. "We must leave, this ship with detonate, when it crashed it must of triggered the self- destruct leaver, or Xanatos did something."
"I'm.. argh. stuck!" he had tried to free himself. "Go, we don't want a jedi master to die!"
"Well, a padawan's death is worse than just a Jedi master's death, since it says in the book that."
"Skrew the book, either get me out of get out! And, I'm no ones padawan, they sent me home, I've failed!"
"Over my dead body."
"Hello. Detonation."
"Oh, yes right! This will probably make the detonation happen a lot fast but." Qui-gon cut into the bodywork around Obi-Wan's leg and then enabled Obi-wan to move, since he had the bodywork stuck to him, Qui-gon helped him out of the ship and to a safe distance, and then a second later. it exploded. He picked up his communication device and looked to see if it had any battery or reception. He pressed the on/off button and then it beeped several times.
"Bloody great! Well we have to get into the nearest town. We need more batteries!"
"Hello." He said simply, he pulled out a double-sided light-sabre, the most difficult light-sabre of them all. He must have been trained by.
