Yet another chapter in the continuing saga. Here, as usual, are the reviewer responses...
miss-AZ: Yeah, Yaddle is now officially peeved at Yoda. I think, she hasn't exactly come into the story...Side note: I hate coffee.
Haraneo B.P. Wicked: Poor Wade the Battle Droid indeed. I liked him so much I killed him off twice. Yes, I have an odd way of showing affection. Maybe that's why nobody ever dates me... :
G-Anakin13: Great review
And on to chapter 14!
Disclaimer: I don't own any stuffed Ewoks. I wish I did, though. They are AWESOME.
Yoda nestled down in his favorite chair by his big-screen TV. His stuffed Ewok rested beside him. Yoda nodded at the toy. "A good show this is, Mr. Fluffy. Agree, do you not?"
Apparently he got the answer from the inanimate object that he wanted because he smiled and leaned back in his seat. "Ah. Like watching soap operas and drinking lattes, nothing is."
Just then the door swung open. Yoda turned to see Obi-Wan and Adi standing there. "Yoda, what are you doing?" Adi hurried into the room and started throwing her clothes into her suitcase. "We have to leave right now."
Yoda waved his hand in the air. All of his stuff floated into his pack, which then zipped itself up. "Done, I am."
Obi-Wan glared at him. "Lucky."
Adi finished stuffing her belongings away. She closed her suitcase. "Okay, come on, you two. Obi-Wan, are you done packing yet?"
"All I have is my teddy bear." He held up the stuffed animal. "I think I can carry it without having to take a suitcase."
Yoda furrowed his brow. "But Mace's teddy bear, that is."
"Hey, finders keepers, losers sweepers."
"Yeah, but I just happened to find all of these Jedi tunics with the name 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' on them. Ah well, you know what they say: 'finders keepers, losers weepers.'"
Obi-Wan narrowed his eyes. "That's not funny."
"Just pack already."
Yoda stood. "Where Mace is, know, do you?"
"He ran off to Coruscant." Adi locked up her carry-on and turned to Obi-Wan. "Come on, Obi-Wan, finish packing already."
Obi-Wan held up his hand. "Never rush an artist." He stared at his clothes in front of him and the open suitcase to the left. "The Fruit of the Loom underwear must be folded to perfection. If not, the world will implode!"
Adi sighed. "I just had to have to go with the idiot, didn't I?"
Yoda scooped up Mr. Fluffy in one arm and his tiny backpack in the other. "Find The Cheese Dog, you did?"
"No, but I've learned that The Cheese Dog was never here. Palpatine just lured us here to set a trap."
"Really? But if a trap there is, know its location, you do not?"
"Well duh I know where the trap is. It's back at our ship."
"Then leave the ship, we must!"
Obi-Wan nodded. "Yes. Obviously they have cooked up some diabolical and evil plan to destroy us forever!"
At that very moment, at Yoda's ship…
Wade the Battle Droid sighed. "Sorry, guys, I guess they're not coming. We planned this whole birthday bash for nothing."
Anakin shrugged. "Well, that's okay. I hate them anyway. We can just give this surprise party to some random passerby."
"Yay! Everybody loves random passerby!"
Back at the hotel…
"For once, Obi-Wan might actually be right." Adi held up three tickets. "So I got us tickets on this luxury ship to Coruscant. Come on, let's go."
As the three of them leave the planet, a Jedi Knight is in the process of infiltrating Chancellor Palpatine's office. Can he succeed? Or will he fail? Or will he just run away, screaming for his mommy? Let's find out…
Mace piloted his speeder next to the chancellor's private building. "Okay. Now I just have to sneak through level after level of military-grade walls and ceilings, top security personnel, and Barney videos playing on a continuous loop…" He donned his ski mask. "If Tom Cruise can do it, so can I!"
He took out his lightsaber and cut a hole in the wall. A thousand security alarms sounded. He sighed. "Ah man. They make it look so easy in the movies."
Tons of security droids came. Mace fought them with one hand, chopping through them like butter. He yawned. "I wish this was more exciting."
He ran into the building. An elevator lay at the end of the room. He hurried to it and pressed the up button. "Come on, come on…"
The elevator reached his floor. But just as he entered the lift, he realized that the elevator had a dozen video screens showing Barney reruns. Mace ran from the torture just as the first lines of "I love you, you love me" reached his ears. "The fiends! Does Palpatine's evil know no bounds!"
After jogging up a lot of stairs, he finally reached Palpatine's office. He burst into the room. The chancellor looked up from his desk. "Master Windu. I must say, this is very sudden."
Mace raised his lightsaber. "The ploy's up, chancellor. I'm taking Shaak Ti, and there's nothing you can do to stop me."
Palpatine gritted his teeth. "Are you threatening me, Master Jedi?"
"No, dude, if I was threatening you, I'd be like, 'You're under arrest, milord,' or something like that. I'm just telling you I plan to take Shaak Ti."
"Oh. Okay. You can have her."
Mace lowered his weapon. "Really?"
"No!" Palpatine shot lightning from his hands. It struck Mace and knocked the Jedi Master unconscious. The chancellor smiled. "Once more the Sith will rule the galaxy!"
Oh no! What will happen to Mace? Will the Jedi reach him in time? Or will Palpatine take over the galaxy? Find out next time in the startling next chapter to Jedi Nites
