might say. And anything unrecognizable. Oh, I also don't own Tortall.
Anakin and Aly where still eating their lunch when Ben woke up and said, almost unrecognizably, for he was very young still, "Some ting bad tere."
"Where?" Anakin asked. He knew that Ben rarely spoke, and when he did it was usually because he sensed something really bad coming.
"Uner twee," Ben said and pointed to the ground. Aly got up and started looking around the tree for a hole. She finally found one about 10 feet from the trunk of the tree.
"Anakin! I think this might be where Ben feels something." Anakin got up and walked to Aly. He reached out with the force and felt a strange presence, like someone who hadn't seen anybody but themselves and their family in 5 years. (A/N: We just finished To Kill A Mockingbird, so there may be some of that in here.)
"Hm. I don't think what's down there is bad, they just haven't encountered people in a while." Anakin turned and called to Ben, "Come here Ben." Ben got up and toddled over to them.
"Yes, Annie-kin?" Ben was totally unaware of what was going on, as was to be expected of a child of 4.
"Will you please talk to you're mommy or daddy and ask them to come here?"
"Otay." Ben had a look of deep concentration on his little face.
Mara was sitting in the library looking over maps of the area around Pirate's Swoop when she heard Ben through the Force. He was saying something about coming to Anakin and Aly, that they needed help. She got up and went to find Luke.
She hadn't gone far when she found George walking through the hall. :Have you seen Luke?"
"No. Why?" George said.
"Nothing. wait. Do you know where there is a willow tree around here. I have reason to believe that my nephew and your daughter have found something interesting by one."
"Yes. It's out a ways into the country. Are you going there? I'll go with you."
"Okay. Let's go then." They both walked out to the stables and got horses. "Riding will be much faster than walking," George said. Mara nodded but was apprehensive. She had never ridden a horse before.
"I suppose this isn't much different from driving a swoop," she said.
"If I knew what that was, I could tell you." George laughed, "Anyway, let's go." He climbed onto a large Gelding and waited for Mara to mount her little mare. When Mara was on the horse, they took off.
"Yep, just like driving a swoop, with a hint of riding a tauntaun."
"I'll take your word for that."
A/N: Sorry, kind of short and cut off. tauntauns are fun! Anyway, R&R
