Naboo 21BBY
8722 was placed on a Nu-Class transport ship to take him back to Coruscant for interrogation. Across from him sat a red haired girl around the same age as him wearing damaged Clone Trooper armour. "Who are you?" Asked 8722. "Summer, I'm the bounty hunter you saw earlier." She said. "And who are you." She asked him. "My names 8722" He said. "That's a bit of a strange name, who named you that?" Asked Summer again. "My old owner." 8722 said."Oh, well how how about I just call you 8?" She rhetorically asked. "Yeah, I probably should change my name." Replied the boy. Summer laughed. "Well, your name can be 8 for now." 8 laughed too. "Yeah, that'll do."
"Do know where they're taking us?" He asked. "Coruscant, I think." Said Summer. "Excuse me sir!" Shouted 8 to a Clone. "Do you know where we're headed?" There was no reply. "I don't think they're allowed to talk to us." Summer said. "That seems kind of pointless, it's not as if it changes anything." 8 replied. "Yeah, it is quite weird, said Summer. When the ship landed they were both grabbed by Clones and escorted to temporary cells in the Jedi Temple.
After about 25 minutes Anakin Skywalker walked into 8's cell to ask him some questions. "What do you want with Ahsoka?" He roared. "Alright calm down I've not actually done anything." 8 scoffed. "This isn't a joke, she's just a kid." Anakin said. "I know, and if I'd known that before I arrived I wouldn't have tried to capture her, I swear." 8 said in a more serious tone. "Capture her? Why would you want to capture her?" Asked Anakin. "There's a 4000 credit bounty on her, and since you so-called Peacekeepers can't even control your own planet, I need those credits to survive." 8 told Anakin. "There's plenty of other ways to make credits instead of bounty hunting." Anakin said. "Not for 15 year old ex-slaves with absolutely no qualifications." 8 snapped back. He was getting angry with Anakin, as he believed all the Jedi had an easy, luxurious life, unaware that Anakin too was a slave once. "You were a slave?" Anakin asked. "Yeah." 8 sulked. "I had no idea there were slaves on Coruscant." He said. "I'm sorry." Anakin said before leaving the room. It was about half an hour before anyone entered the room again, this time it was two Clones. They both grabbed him by the shoulders and began to take him somewhere new, he never needed to ask where he was going, it was quite obvious, he was going to jail.
