Chapter Four

The Twins Bond

Anakin had not realized that the droid was so small before he jumped and he had barely gotten his hands around it before it had taken off. Anakin made the mistake of looking down, he saw the small city down below. "Oh boy," thought Anakin, "If I let go I would have a very long time to think about how bad it would hurt."

…………………………………………………

Luke followed Obi-Wan into the speeder hangers. They both jumped into the closest speeder made for three, Luke in the driver's seat Obi-Wan on the other side.

Luke didn't hesitate, he backed up and with a quick thrust was at full power, in a blink of on eye they were out of the hanger.

………………………………………………

"Ow!" Anakin yelled out in pain when the droid knocked him against a wall on his left side. The hit had made his left arm go numb; it dropped to his side useless for the moment. He clung to the droid with his good arm, hoping he would be able to hold on with one hand.

………………………………………………

"Ow!" said Luke as his left arm tingled with another's pain.

"What is it, what's wrong?" asked Obi-Wan looking at Luke as he rubbed his arm.

"I don't know master, my arm just started to hurt," said Luke as he continued to rub his arm.

"Are you alright?" asked Obi-Wan looking concerned.

"Yes, I'm fine," said Luke putting both hands back on the controls.

…………………………………………

Anakin held as tight as he could with his right arm, he could tell that his left shoulder had popped out for his whole left arm was numb. Then the unthinkable happened. Some one shot the droid right out of Anakin's hands.

…………………………………………

"Which way did they go master?" asked Luke.

"They went that way, towards town," said Obi-Wan pointing the direction they had gone.

……………………………………………

Anakin was falling, so fast that he thought any minute now he was going to be a big splat in the middle of the city.

………………………………………………

"I don't see him master, do you?" asked Luke turning with a last hope to his master.

"No I- wait –yes there he is!" said Obi-Wan pointing at Anakin as he fell.

"Oh boy-hang on master, I'm going to dive!" said Luke as he pushed the speeder into a dive.

"Oh boy- this is it," thought Anakin as the ground got even closer.

Just then the ground disappeared and was replaced by a bright yellow speeder. Anakin reached out for the edge of it, he grabbed it just as Luke pulled up out of the dive.

Anakin gripped Obi-Wan's hand with his good arm and slipped into the middle seat.

Anakin sighed and said staring at them, "What took you so long?"

"Oh you know brother; we couldn't fine a speeder that we really liked," said Luke having fun at his brother's expense.

"Oh thanks a lot," said Anakin cradling his injured arm.

"Anakin are you hurt?" asked Obi-Wan with concern.

"With the open cockpit, and the right speed capacities," Luke continued.

"I'm fine master," said Anakin wincing in pain as Obi-Wan reached across and took hold of Anakin's injured arm.

"Sure you are," said Obi-Wan as he popped Anakin's shoulder back in place.

"Ow!" Anakin yelled as numb part of his arm slide back into place.

"Ow!" Luke echoed his hand going to his shoulder.

"What's wrong with you?" asked Obi-Wan looking to Luke.

"I don't know, when you popped Anakin's shoulder back in my shoulder burned like mine had been popped in too," said Luke rubbing his shoulder.

"Are you hurt anywhere else Anakin?" asked Obi-Wan looking to the younger twin.

"No, I'm fine," said Anakin rubbing his shoulder as feeling came back into it, "There he is the person who shot the droid out of my hands."

"Hang on," said Luke as he went into a dive after the green speeder.

They were diving straight down now, faster and faster. "Pull up Luke, pull up," said Obi-Wan being pinned to his seat.

"Wahoo," said Luke pulling back up at the last minute.

"Wahoo, let's do that again," said Anakin still rubbing his shoulder but smiling.

"You both know I don't like it when you do that," said Obi-Wan.

"Sorry master," said Luke looking to his brother.

"Yes, we forgot you don't flying," said Anakin smiling.

"I don't mind flying, but what you're doing is suicide," said Obi-Wan as Luke dodged another speeder.

Luke continued to chase the speeder, as it went through a power cufflink.

"Luke, Anakin, how many time's do I have to tell," Obi-Wan started as they went through the bolts of energy, "to-stay- away from-power cufflinks."

They continued to chase the speeder until it turned left and they continued straight.

"Luke, where are you going? He went that way," said Obi-Wan pointing in the direction that the other speeder went.

"Master if we keep this chase going any longer who knows what could happen, I don't know about you, but I would very much like to know who he is and who's working for, this is a short cut-I think," said Luke wondering if he had chosen to right way.
