The Lost Skywalkers
Chapter 3
We're Jedi!
Ring! Ring! The triplets ran to the phone. Annie got to it first, so Anna and Danae picked up another phone. "Hello, may I please speak to Anna, Annie, or Danae?" Jessi said. They tried not to laugh. "Speaking." They said in unison. "All three of you?" Jessi asked. "Yep." They said in unison again. "Will you stop that please? It's unnerving me." Jessi said. "Fine. So why did you call?" Anna said. "Do you three want to come over?" Jessi asked. "Hold on a second." Danae said.
"Mom! Can we go over to Jessi's?" Danae yelled, covering the receiver. "How long will you be staying?" Mrs. Walker yelled back.
"How long would we be staying?" Anna asked.
"Yeah, what she said." Danae said.
"Umm… it's 10:00 now. How about until 4:00?" Jessi said.
"Until 4:00?" Annie yelled up the stairs.
"OK." Mrs. Walker yelled back.
"We can." Annie said.
"OK, see you in a few minutes." Jessi said, hanging up.
Anna ran upstairs to get dressed. She came back down.
"Come on." Annie said, walking out the door. Danae and Anna followed.
Jessi was waiting outside for them. She knew it wouldn't take long, because they lived just down the street from her.
"Boo!" Anna said, walking up to her. Jessi jumped. "Anna!" She said, pretending to be annoyed. Anna laughed.
"Come on, I got Star Wars for my N64." Jessi said. "Really?" The triplets said in unison, then cracked up. "Guys!" Jessi said, laughing as well.
"Did you get the letter telling you where your bus stop is?" Anna asked, recovering. "Yeah! Down the road!" Jessi replied. "Ours too!" They said in unison. Jessi gave up trying to get them to stop, and started laughing.
"Wouldn't it be cool if our teacher liked Star Wars?" Anna said, staring into space. Annie waved a hand in front of her face. "Always in motion, the future is." Jessi quipped, trying to keep a straight face. Anna looked at her. "Nice sabacc face. Isn't really working, is it?" All four of them started laughing.
"Come on, you guys. We've spent enough time out here." Jessi said. "Yeah." Anna agreed.
"Are we going up to your room first?" Annie asked.
"Yep. Who wants to play Star Wars?" Jessi said.
"You know the answer to that question." The triplets said simultaneously.
"You're right. I do know the answer." Jessi said.
They went up to play Star Wars, and then at 4:00, the triplets went home.
"See you at the bus stop." The triplets called.
When they got home, they ran into the room they shared. It wasn't a bedroom; it was more a room they could go to without being bothered.
"Guys? You know how we were adopted? Do you think we could be Skywalkers?" Anna asked tentatively. "What's the reason you asked that?" Danae asked, not using the word 'why' because she didn't want Anna to quote Vergere.
"I've been remembering something from when I was three. Here, I'll show you." Anna replied, concentrating. A book flew into her hand.
(next day)
"Come on!" Anna called up the stairs. "We're coming." Danae called back. She walked downstairs.
"Even if we aren't Skywalkers, we are Jedi." She told Anna.
"OK." Anna replied.
Annie walked downstairs. "Don't show Jessi." She said, walking out the door. Anna followed, and Danae brought up the rear.
They got to the bus stop. "Anyone know why we're taking the bus this year?" Jessi inquired. The three of them shook their heads. "Oh well." Jessi said, getting on the bus. "Yeah." The three of them echoed.
Anna and Jessi sat down in front of Annie and Danae. "You guys in the gym this year?" Jessi asked. They shook their heads. "We'll ignore it this year." Anna said. "We could just talk, or chase each other around." Jessi suggested.
The three of them nodded.
