Chapter VII
The four remaining Jedi Masters were on the turbo-lift when they felt Jurkas die. Mawn touched her chest lightly and Obi-Wan noted this with vague interest, what the other Jedi did in their personal time was not his business.
Quinlan punched in the clearance code and they were in the sub-levels, "Vader and the others would have a difficult time to get past this security console, I rigged it earlier, if Vader comes on a thermal detonator will automatically go off,"
"What if they reroute the console?" asked Obi-Wan.
Quinlan blinked as they entered the dimly lit sub-levels, "I hadn't thought about that,"
"Why are we running?" asked Mawn.
"Because," began Quinlan as he adjusted his Combat suit, "we have to get to the Jedi Shuttle Lightsaber before it exits the System,"
Mawn and Obi-Wan were surprised, "Lightsaber is still in the Galaxy, I thought it joined the Outbound Flight and Master C'boath?"
Ikit and Quinlan shook their heads, "No, Master Yoda foresaw a time when it would be needed, he arranged for it to remain hidden in the Naboo system,"
Realization dawned on Obi-Wan's head, "Oh, that's why you chose the Naboo system as the meeting place, Lightsaber is in hidden orbit,"
Quinlan nodded and the four Jedi Masters stopped at the other end, "this should take us up to a hidden section in New Teris, Vader and the others shouldn't be able to find us right now,"
They entered the turbolift, "Force be with us,"
They exited the turbolift at the top section, and the Quinlan shifted the weight from one foot to another as he hoisted a small bag on his back, "small weapons that will give us an advantage against Vader,"
Mawn glanced at a small bundle of clothing on the floor, "Maybe you didn't realize Master Vos but there are hundreds of stormtroopers pouring in the base, half of our troops are dead and the others don't even know we need them right now, also, how do you propose we get to the spaceport? Imperials are all over the place,"
Quinlan smiled and pointed at the bundle of clothing she had looked at earlier, "these disguises should suffice,"
Mawn and Obi-Wanlaughed uneasily, "You're joking right Master Vos?"
The Kiffar Jedi Master shook his head as he and Master Ikit stripped off their Jedi robes and doffed the Naboo farmer clothing.
Mawn sighed as she picked up a suit, "This had better defeat the Sith Vos," she muttered under her breath.
Quinlan smiled, "It will,"
