A/N: Well, I haven't been getting many reviews, which means that you guys probably don't like the story. So in that Event, I'm probably going to end up stopping the story short.
Chapter 6
Obi-wan looked at the droids. This was odd. There was more than there should have been. The Wookies alone were capable of putting up some sort of a fight. But there were a lot of droids here. And then it came to him. The Wookies were joined with the Separatists. Not good. Chewbacca roared something, and Rae nodded. "Yeah, I definitely think we are in trouble." Anakin looked at Obi-wan, as if waiting for the signal to attack. Obi-wan nodded and he and Anakin rushed towards the door as the droids began attacking.
Obi-wan's black sliced through droid after droid, the acrid smell of spoke and burnt wires filled the air. Anakin, with the force, used two of the battle droids for cover from the Super Battle Droids blast attacks. The Battle droids have their heads and chest blown in, their blasters flew from their hands. Rae and Chewbacca looked at each other for a moment when Rae looked at the two blasters that fell. "Come on Chewbacca! Let's get in on the action!" Chewbacca spoke again. "Yes you can take the left side!" Rae exclaimed.
Obi-wan and Anakin were being forced to defend themselves from the oncoming blaster fire. That was a dramatic change in events because they had almost been able to use the force to get through all the droids. Now, the sound of blasts and the crimson bolt color sizzled against their lightsabers as they blocked each attack. Rae and Chewbacca were firing rapidly into the droids, taking them down with the two Jedi. As they defended and returned the fire from the aid of Chewbacca and Rae, more droids came pouring in. And out of the shadows from the corner of the jail like room, came four destroyer droids, their shields going up. Rae heard the blaster fire first. "Obi-wan! Behind you!" she called out. Obi-wan turned just in time to deflect the shot. The droids kept firing upon them. Soon, they were being backed into each other. Chewbacca roared something, and Anakin could make out what he said by facial expression. "I think I'm going to have to agree with you," Anakin said.
Count Dooku sat at his desk; Ventress was recovering still from her little tiff with Darth Xereon. Good, that got her out of his hair for now. He was looking out the window when his holoscreen lit up with a blue figure and red eyes. "Count Dooku, two Jedi are on Kashyyyk! Obi-wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker!" Viceroy Nute Gunray spat out. He hated those two Jedi. They were always there to ruin his plans. Today he wasn't going to let it. Count Dooku stood up and looked at the Viceroy. "Viceroy, relax. Are our troops engaging them?" The Viceroy nodded. "Are they outnumbered at least five to one?" The Viceroy nodded again, and with that the transmission ended. "Idiot." Was all that Count Dooku said.
As the Droids and Wookies moved in closer, there was a loud thumping sound. It sounded like footsteps. Then, the ceiling of the Jail-Room caved in and down came a mass amount of Clone Troopers. Obi-wan and Anakin smiled at each other as Rae and Chewbacca laughed. The Clone Troopers were led by Commander Rine. The crimson bolts sizzled through the air as the attacks kept coming. "Anakin, come on! We have to get to the leader!" Obi-wan sliced through droids as Rae and Chewbacca gave them cover fire. The Clones were taking out numerous amounts of droids, but their own numbers were falling.
Anakin and Obi-wan sliced through the droids, machine by machine, deflecting the blaster bolts. They made it to the leader of the Wookies as Chewbacca roared something. It was barely audible over the cracks of blaster bolt fire, but Rae understood it. "He said leave the leader for him to take care of!" She roared out. As the leader of the Wookies threw his massive fist, Anakin was forced to jab his lightsaber into the leader's ankle, the attack left the area smelling like singed hair and burnt flesh. Soon the Droids were completely destroyed, the droid ships destroyed as well.
"Rae, your ship is in ruins. How about you come back to Coruscant with us, and serve as a pilot for the Republic," Obi-wan asked. Rae thought about it for a moment, and then nodded. She and Obi-wan and Anakin got onboard their ship, and went straight back to Coruscant.
They reached Coruscant about three hours later, and approached the Jedi Council. Obi-wan and Anakin made their report, and Rae was with them. Mace Windu looked at the girl. "Rae, if you are to become a pilot with the Republic, you might have to go on missions with Master Skywalker and Master Kenobi. Is that alright with you?" Rae nodded. She trusted Anakin and Obi-wan, mainly because, though they were Jedi and she knew they valued life, she also knew that she could do well with them if she was part of their team. Yoda looked at her. "On Kashyyyk, trouble there was. The Separatists, were there?" Rae nodded. "Yes, there were battle droids and such. The leader of the planet just picked me up and dragged me into their holding cells after my ship crashed. There was another Wookie there. His name was Chewbacca." Yoda nodded. "Go to Kashyyyk, I will. Help them resolve their problems. Master Kenobi, help Miss Delvae into a new ship and armory, you will." Obi-wan and Anakin bowed respectfully, as did Rae, quickly understanding their ways, and the three head out.
Rae was taken to the armory that was within the council. She was asked if they wanted to customize a blaster for her, but she said it was fine that they didn't. They got her cleaned up, new clothes, and a variety of weapons for field combat. They also took her to a ship on the Jedi Council's private landing pad. There was a ship there, shaped rather oddly. It was blue and white, and it had a blaster turret on the bottom of the ship itself. There was also a turret on the dorsal fin. The ship itself was well built. Rae smiled seeing it. "Is it named already?" She asked. Obi-wan shook his head no. "Go ahead and name it." Anakin said. Rae nodded. "I think we'll call it the "Twilight X" Obi-wan nodded. He understood that was the name of her old ship and that was fine. This was given to her by the Supreme Chancellor himself, nothing wrong with it at all. And so, Rae would join the two Jedi.
Back on Vjun, Darth Xereon and Darth Maul were in their own quarters meditating. They had been getting ready to go to their ship for the next part of their plan. But, Darth Maul felt something. He was the first of the two to feel it actually. There was a ripple in the force, a disturbance, a bubble. He looked at Darth Hereon. "Do you feel it?" Darth Xereon nodded, and then he grinned. "It looks like a Jedi Padawan may become my first apprentice Maul." Darth Maul gave a sickening grin. And with that, the two head out to their ship, and their destination target: Coruscant.
Jedi Master Refta Kalt was looking at his young Padawan Sarai. They approached Jedi Master Mace Windu in the council chambers and bowed. Mace Windu nodded as another Padawan came out and joined the Jedi Master and the girl Padawan. Mace Windu looked at the three. "Master Kalt, this is Padawan Jun Yarks. He will be joining your apprentice in the trials today. Sarai, Jedi Padawan, your trial is to go to the Crimson Corridor, and bring us back one of the Separatists. He is meeting with a spy that is with the Separatists. He has a holocron that has precious information on it regarding the Senate. The two of you will bring back the holocron. Now, Master Kalt, you are aware of the fact that you can't help them in their trial. So you must stand down from it. However, we are going to permit you to go. After…what happened there those years ago, we don't want another incident like that." And Mace Windu signaled so that they could leave.
And so they head for their speeder bikes and were off to the Crimson Corridor.
