BeckyBabyDoll: You'll find out what happens to everyone in this chapter and I'm happy you think my story is awesome!
Back to the story…
"Watch it you piece of scrap metal!" Faith growled as she was flung into a prison cell. The droids just looked at her and then left her alone. Faith slumped against the wall and started to cry. She felt she was responsible for Sache's death and that her mother, sister and Yane were in this terrible mess because of her actions.
Faith's dress was ruined it was covered in red blood stains and was ripped at the hood as the droids practically dragged her here. Faith then stopped crying and wiped her eyes.
Get a grip of yourself Faith! Sache wouldn't want you to be upset she would want you to get out of here. Faith thought to herself as she scrambled to her feet.
She glanced around the tiny cell, it was dark and cold and she noticed that the door was just some iron bars. Faith searched for her lightsaber but it wasn't there, the droids took it she thought to herself as paced around the cell searching for a way out.
"W-Where am I?" Tahl said groggily as she sat up. Yane and Selena also had woken up.
"Mum!" Selena cried and hugged her.
"Where's Faith and Sache?" Yane asked aloud.
"I don't know but I sense something terrible has happened." Tahl replied darkly as she got to her feet.
"How are we gonna escape? The droids will have our lightsabers." Selena muttered then searched for her pouch.
"Oh well at least I still have my…" Selena began but her face turned pale.
"What's the matter Selena?" Tahl frowned.
"My wedding ring! Mum it's gone! He took it!" Selena replied enraged.
Tahl searched for hers and just like Selena's it was gone.
"Listen we'll get them back don't worry in the meantime we need to think about getting out of here and finding Faith and Sache." Tahl said to the other two women.
Meanwhile back in Tatooine Anakin and the small group had managed to reach his house where they met his mother Shimi Skywalker who was startled to see them all at first but agreed that they could stay with them as the sandstorm was very dangerous.
Obi Wan was back at the ship and was busy working away trying to repair the ship when he felt this excruciating pain he doubled over and tried to work out what was happening.
He soon found out that Selena and the others were drugged and Sache had died and they were in grave danger. Obi Wan managed to steady himself and ran to his quarters and shut the door and grabbed his com link and started to contact Qui Gon.
Qui Gon was in the kitchen with Shimi. He handed her five capsules from his utility belt.
"Here that should be enough for dinner." He smiled.
"Thank you, I'm sorry if I was abrupt earlier its just I never get used to Anakin's surprises." Shimi replied.
Qui Gon shook his head to say it didn't matter and then he frowned as his com link went off.
"Please excuse me." Qui Gon excused himself and hurried out of the room. Ben who came out of Anakin's room with Padme and Anakin frowned.
"What's the matter with my dad?"
Shimi handed Anakin the stuff to set the table and replied with a small smile.
"Nothing young Jinn, his com link went off."
Ben nodded then the others helped Anakin.
"Obi Wan what is it? Is something wrong with the ship?" Qui Gon said concerned.
"No Master its Selena and the others." Obi Wan replied.
"Obi Wan you sound upset! What happened?" Qui Gon asked panicking a little.
"They've been captured; Palpatine knew they were under disguise they are in Naboo!" Obi Wan replied fear growing inside him.
"Ok listen to me I'll be back as soon as I can and when I come back we will head to Coruscant and see the Council." Qui Gon instructed and Obi Wan sighed.
"Yes Master and may the Force be with you."
"May the Force be with you too and Obi Wan she'll be ok." Qui Gon reassured his young Padawan that his wife would be ok.
"Finally!" Carla shouted happily as their ship landed in Naboo. She grinned at her husband as he and his sister climbed out of the ship. Nonie glanced around at her new surroundings it was quiet.
"Nonie are you alright?" Cala asked sounding a little annoyed she didn't want Nonie to ruin their plan.
"Oh! I'm fine Cala just a little nauseous after the landing." Nonie lied.
Cala studied her for a minute and Nonie got the distinct feeling she didn't believe her. Cala just shrugged then turned and kissed her husband Nardo.
"We better move, Palpatine will be expecting us." Nardo replied.
Cala walked beside him happily but not revealing to him that she was going to capture Obi Wan and kill Nardo then marry Obi Wan.
Nonie could read Cala's mind and was shocked and felt angry towards the older woman. Nonie disliked her older brother as he did what their father asked him to but she didn't want anyone messing around with her brother!
When they reached the Palace they were escorted by a Droid to Palpatine's office.
"Ah if it isn't the Tabansi's! Please take a seat." Palpatine greeted them warmly.
Cala and Nardo smiled Nonie just sat down in a seat.
"Where's Maul?" Nonie asked surprised he wasn't there.
Cala and Nardo glared at her and Palpatine glared.
"He's currently on a mission to find the Jedi we are hunting." Palpatine explained.
"So I hear you have caught Selena and the others?" Cala asked him with a smile.
"Yes they are in the dungeon at the moment; would you care to see them?" Palpatine asked raising a brow.
"Later but right now we need to discus how we are going to lure the Jedi here." Nardo stated.
"Nardo, must you rush the Chancellor?" Cala interrupted.
Nonie stared at the Chancellor who was grinning she obviously thought something was going on but she kept her mouth shut.
"Now Palpatine take us to the prison and let me see my best friend Selena." Cala replied laughing.
"I will but first I must show you something." Palpatine pulled out the captive women's lightsabers and wedding rings.
"What will we do with them?" Nardo asked.
Cala snatched Selena's and pulled her own wedding ring off. Nardo stared at his wife disbelieved and Nonie just stared at her as she slipped Selena's ring on.
"What are you doing?" Nardo asked with a small hint of jealousy.
"Oh nothing Nardo just putting my wedding ring on." Cala smiled then followed Palpatine as he led her to the dungeons.
Nonie stood up and put her hand on her brother's shoulder he shrugged her off.
"She's not worth it." Nonie said then walked out.
