CHAPTER 20

Back To Coruscant

Minor note here: I couldn't think of what to put after the part where I fainted so I decided to just go right to the ship...

"Padawan Stephanie."

Someone was calling my name. I moaned and turned on my side. I'd been having a dream that Grievous and Shaak Ti were getting married. I wanted to see how it ended. "Go away!" I said. "I don't want to wake up yet!"

Poke! Someone was poking me. Poke! Poke!

"Wake up you must, Padawan," a very familiar voice said chuckling.

I moaned again. Well so much for that! "All right! Please stop poking me!"

I opened my eyes. What I saw surprised me. Obi-Wan, Anakin, Kit, Shaak, and Yoda stood over me. None of them looked mean or angry for some reason. What? I thought Yoda and Anakin wanted me dead!

"GAH!" I gasped sitting up.

I discovered I was lying on one of those cot things on a starship. "How did I get here?" I asked.

"We carried you here," Obi-Wan replied pointing at himself and Anakin.

"You did?" I asked. "I thought you guys wanted to kill me because I am a traitor."

"You're not a traitor," Kit spoke up. "Shaak Ti and I told the others about you saving us from Grievous and then Shaak Ti told us about your fight with Dooku. We forgive you. You saved Yoda's life."

"After I accidently knocked him out," I looked at Yoda. "I'm sorry."

He nodded and looked at me with his wise green eyes. "Okay, it is," he informed me.

"Where are we going?" I asked them.

"Back to Coruscant," Obi-Wan replied.

I suddenly felt like I was in trouble. "Am I going on trial for treason?" I asked them nervously.

They stared at me.

"No," Yoda said firmly after a minute. "On trial you will not be put."

I was relieved but only a little. "What about Palpatine?" I asked.

"What about him?" Anakin demanded.

"What if he finds out about this? What if he finds out about me? What if he wants to put me on trial?"

I knew it was very likely that he already knew about me. Dooku had probably opened his big mouth and told him.

"Worry about the Chancellor you should not," Yoda spoke up gently. "He matters not."

"He doesn't?" I asked in surprise. Wow!

"No."

"So I won't ever have to talk to him?" I asked.

"No." (Boy would he ever be wrong!)

I sighed in relief. Good, I wouldn't have to face the evil Sith Lord. Even if Dooku did tell him about me.

"Good," I said. Suddenly going back to the Jedi Temple didn't seem so bad. "Now could you do something for me?"

"What?" Obi-Wan asked curiously.

"Could you guys get me something to eat?" I asked, my stomach rumbling. "I haven't eaten in who knows how long and I'm starved!"

There was a silence for a few minutes. Suddenly it was broken by loud cackling laughter as Master Yoda started to laugh. That laughter spread and was soon joined by the others. Soon I was laughing too.

"Sure," Obi-Wan said heading to the kitchen area of the ship. "I'll get you something to eat."
