Jadis, Boba, and all of the minions were quite cautious as they walked through the Yavin forest from the landing platform to the Jedi Temple. They were really determined to avoid detection as they were attacking from inside the temple instead of outside. Boba, though, was still a little unsure of Jadis's idea to mask their presence from the Padawans and Jedi Master Luke.
"What exactly do you have in mind to do this?" Boba asked as they approached the perimeter of the temple.
"Just trust me on this. You'll see when we get there." Jadis replied.
Finally, the group arrived outside the temple. Jadis held up her hand to tell the others to stop moving, and then she turned around to face everyone. She slowly drew out a small vial of blue liquid from the folds of her shoulder wrap and tipped a small drop onto the ground. A cloud of blue smoke billowed up from the ground where the drop hit, engulfing everyone in it. Boba was stunned as he waved his hands to push the smoke away from his helmet. Was this Jadis's big idea? he wondered.
"What in the name of the Sith did you just do?" he asked as the smoke cleared.
"That, my friend, was a spell of mine that will mask our presence from those Jedi in there." Jadis replied as she tucked the vial away.
"That cloud of smoke is your spell?" Boba asked in disbelief.
"Yes it is, and if you're smart enough you will trust me that it will work. Now, please lead the way to the secret entrance." Jadis said.
Boba sighed as he led the march around the temple to the secret entrance in the back. He was really hoping that this spell of Jadis's would work as this new surprise attack couldn't go wrong. He really needed it to go down like clockwork so he could collect the bounty on Han and Leia.
"Well, here we are." he said as the group arrived at the secret back entrance.
"Excellent. I can't wait to spring the surprise." Jadis said.
"I'm ready, my lady! I'm ready to go after the queen!" Ginnabrik exclaimed.
"Allright, Ginnabrik. Go inside and distract Queen Lucy. But don't you dare mess this one up. I do not take too kindly to mistakes." Jadis said harshly.
Ginnabrik was still quite excited as he darted inside the secret entrance to the old repair bay, followed closely by the rest of the group. Jadis watched Ginnabrik as he ran out of the repair bay and into the main area of the temple, desperate to go after Queen Lucy.
"If he messes this up, he'll be in for a nasty surprise." Jadis said
Inside the main temple
Lucy was walking around the hallway of the dormitory area of the temple. She had just eaten lunch with everyone and decided to do a little exploring by herself.
"Wow, I can't believe this whole place is Jaina's home." she whispered to herself.
She was indeed amazed that this huge temple was where her best friend lived. Even after the tour she and her family had received from C-3PO upon their arrival here, she still couldn't get over how big the temple was.
"Jaina is so lucky to live here." Lucy whispered to herself.
She stopped to admire an ornate carving on the wall when she heard sounds of small feet scattering up the hall. The sounds certainly didn't sound like the beaver's small feet nor did they sound like Mr. Tumnus's hooves. Frightened, Lucy ducked into a nearby open, empty room and closed the door so that it was open only the smallest crack. She carefully pressed her ear against the door as the footsteps got louder and louder.
"Where are you, little queen? Come out, come out wherever you are." a familiar raspy voice taunted evilly.
Lucy was horrified when she heard that voice. It was Ginnabrik! Even though she knew she was taking a huge risk, she had to confront him. With her dagger firmly in her hand and a look of anger on her face, she stepped out of the room to confront that nasty dwarf.
"What are you doing here?" she asked angrily to a very shocked Ginnabrik.
"You! This isn't supposed to happen like this; I'm supposed to surprise you!" Ginnabrik exclaimed.
"I don't care; you aren't supposed to be here anyway." Lucy said angrily.
"I'm not leaving until I take care of business and I make my queen proud." Ginnabrik said as he whipped out his own dagger.
The two of them had their daggers pointed at each other as they walked around in a circle in fighter's stances, waiting for the other to make the first move. Lucy could feel her fingers grip even tighter onto the handle of her dagger as she pointed it right at Ginnabrik.
"Just give up now, little queen. You'll never win against me." Ginnabrik snarled.
"I think you're the one who's wrong. Try me, I dare you." Lucy demanded.
Ginnabrik stepped back a few feet before he came running at Lucy and leapt at her, ready to plunge his dagger right into her arm. Lucy, being the quick, agile person that she was, jumped out of the way just in the nick of time and giggled as Ginnabrik fell face first onto the floor.
"This isn't supposed to happen!" he exclaimed as he quickly stood up.
"No, but this is!" Lucy exclaimed and kicked Ginnabrik in the stomach.
Her kick was so strong that Ginnabrik grabbed his stomach in pain as he fell backward. He was shocked at how strong this little girl was.
"That one was for Ani!" Lucy declared.
Ginnabrik glared at her as he struggled to stand up but he suddenly felt a sharp, searing pain in his arm. Horrified, he looked up at Lucy to see her grinning as she plunged her dagger right into his lower arm.
"That's for my sister!" Lucy screamed as she twisted the dagger quite hard before yanking it out.
Ginnabrik screamed in terrible pain as he realized this little girl was a lot more powerful than he realized. He was terrified as he ran down the hall, clutching the nasty dagger wound she had given him. Lucy, meanwhile, was standing there with a bloody dagger in one hand and a look of satisfaction on her face. It felt quite good to get revenge against that nasty dwarf for hurting her older sister.
"Lucy, what is going on out here?" she heard Jaina say behind her.
Lucy turned around to see her siblings, the Solos, the beavers, and Mr. Tumnus had ran out into the hall from their rooms upon hearing her screams.
"We heard you screaming, my lady. Are you allright?" Mr. Tumnus asked.
"What in Aslan's name did you just do, Lu?" Peter asked upon noticing the bloody dagger his little sister was holding.
"I got Ginnabrik." Lucy simply said.
"You got who?" Peter asked in amazement.
"But if he's here, you know who else is." Susan said in horror.
"No, not that bloody witch again!" Mr. Beaver exclaimed.
"Everyone, go and grab your weapons. We have to be ready to fight NOW!" Jacen exclaimed.
The Narnians ran back into their rooms to grab their respective weapons while Lucy ran into her room to clean off her blood soaked dagger. Jaina's hand was trembling as she spoke into her comlink to her Uncle Luke and warned him to prepare the other Padawans to fight. She was upset that she had to fight this evil witch again but was more determined than ever to protect her home, her family, and her friends.
Back in the repair bay
"Where is that imbecile?" Jadis demanded to know.
"I don't know but I hope he didn't mess this up." Boba replied.
Both were immediately answered when a screaming Ginnabrik came running into the room with a huge, bloody wound on his arm and his hand covered in sticky, red blood.
"You imbecile! I warned you not to mess this one up!" Jadis screamed.
"I'm so sorry, my lady. But the queen—" Ginnabrik started to say before Jadis roughly grabbed him by his beard.
"Enough of your excuses! I told you I don't take too kindly to mistakes!" she screamed.
With that, Jadis dragged the dwarf by his beard over to a nearby support beam in the room and roughly tied him against it with some escape rope that Boba provided from his utility belt.
"So you're not going to kill me?" Ginnabrik meekly asked.
"Not yet. I'll deal with you later." Jadis snarled before she and Boba led the rest of the minions out of the repair bay.
