CHAPTER 3

After several minutes of comforting the droid finally came to his senses, he realized he saw the world in a new light, now he found himself caring that there were battle droid bodies scattered throughout the terrain experiencing awe when looking at the setting sun of Geonosis and a feeling of emptiness when he looked out and saw the barren ground. The droid sat there in awe caring about the world around it for the first time in its life then his eyes snapped back to the caring figure comforting him, and feeling a sudden sense of awkwardness pulled away from the hug. "Ah! Whats wrong buddy... did, did I make things awkward?"

"What no Sal I, I just..."

"I,m sorry if I did I just thought you needed a bit of comforting and..."

"SAL." He looks up at the droid "i,m fine OK i,m good I just haven't been hugged before, now lets get back on the adventure." Sal nods, his cheeks flushed, he then moved over to his computer setup and pressed a button on the side, and the computer immediately shrunk into a small briefcase not small enough to fit in a pocket but not big enough to be a burden then picked up his backpack laying on the ground, and then called to the droid who was still sitting down. "come on the confederacy isn't going to rebuild itself." Sal then started running presumably in the direction of wherever they're heading so the droid promptly got up and ran to catch up with his friend. They travelled for the better part of a day to the mystery location Sal had them going to and the farther they got the droid noticed the more clone and droid body's they saw so the droid figured they must be getting closer until eventually he could see rocky terrain up ahead and Sal stopped abruptly "well we're here the geonosis battle droid factory! Now i think camping here for the night would be a good idea" The droid nodded and dropped the pack that he took from Sal but suddenly from up ahead a plume of dust could be seen rising and Sal exclaimed. "Ah damn its a reclamation droid!"
