Lisabev: you hope it's a hoax? :)
Badkidoh: Thanks !
Jedi Angel001: I'm glad you like my point!
Master Yoda sat carefully on his seat. He sight. This was a bad day for the Order. He accepted that the Master Ti affair will be in live on the holonet. He had no choice. Chancellor Mon Mothma nicely suggested it, arguing that It was good for the Order to show that they were objectives. The trial was taking place in the Jedi temple, where far more many people than estimated had come to attend it. All the master seated and Shaak Ti enter the room.
"Master Ti. Do you know why you are here?" Master Mundi asked.
" I'm accused of sabotage of former Senator Amidalla ship, killing her, Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi." she responded, calmly.
" Let us see the proof against you." proposed Master Fisto.
All of the eyes of the Republic turned toward the holo recorder.
Master Ti was coming near the ship, disappearing from the camera for a while then, with a devil smile, trotting away. Fifteen minutes later, the two heroes were coming down, with Padmé Amidalla, focused in a conversation. The former Senator climbed up first, then the two man entered the ship and It took off two minutes later.
A whisper of anger start to raise in the no-Jedi crowd. Master Fisto cleared his throat, and the silence came back.
"This holo is a fake. I admit I came by the ship, but Skywalker and Kenobi were there. We talk about their decision to leave the Order. Their decision were irrevocable."
" They were right!" someone shouted.
The crowd started to whisper but a soft hit on the ground by Yoda quieted the people. Shaak Ti didn't show any sign of discomfort.
" Can you prove it ?" Master Mundi asked;
" Do you sense in me any lies ?"
" No." Master Mundi answered.
" That's no proof !" one shouted.
Master Ti turned toward the crowd.
" Do you mean that the Jedi Council would protect me, would cheat on the galaxy ?"
" Yes !" replied a twi'lek." Normal people can't feel the Force. The being the most capable to detect lies is a Jedi. And we all know that the Jedi don't like it when it doesn't go its way."
" Are you accusing us of manipulation ?" the togrutan asked.
" Yes ! I am!"
" Can you prove it ? " She retorted.
" We'll discuss it later" Knight Muln intervened.
The twi'lek went quiet.
"Master Ti, can you prove it ?" Master Fisto questioned.
" I may draw the attention of the Council that there is no sound on that holo. Any suspected sound of what I'm supposed to have done have been found ?"
" No."
" Then I suggest that you found one."
" Good. Find evidence, Kuja Gent will." Master Yoda said.
" Masters, I would like to help him." Padawan Ahsoka Tano asked.
" Sure! So you can influence him!" the twi'lek shouted angrily.
" I was Anakin Skywalker's padawan for a time." she softly replied. " I want to know what exactly happened to him., no matter who is responsible of his death.
T he twi'lek stared at her for a minute then groaned his agreement. The togrutan teenage girl turned to look to the crowd, searching someone who wouldn't agree. There was no one, she so bowed, and left with the engineer.
"The trial, adjourned to this afternoon, is." Master Yoda concluded.
The Jedi left le room, under the angry gaze of the crowd.
" So you were Skywalker's padawan ? " Kuja asked.
" Yes, some time after he became a knight. " Ahsoka respond.
" How was he ? "
" Strong, obstinate, powerful and like a big brother somewhat, I think. "
" I see. So, let's discover what happened to him, don't we ? "
" Fine for me."
Gent used a program to have the sound back.
" Here, that's not a completly legal one, but who will mind ?"
" Master Ti, If we find evidence against her."
" True. We will use another program to do so. "
They watched the recording a second time.
" No, Anakin! I don't want your children to call me Uncle Bibi ! Obi-wan Kenobi replied, annoyed.
" Why ? It's really cute! " Anakin retorted.
" No, it's not! It's stupid!"
" From two years old children, it's cute ! "
" I don't care! I don't want to be called like that."
" What about Uncle Ben ?" Padmé asked, smiling." It's both cute and not stupid."
The two former Jedi looked at each other and nodded in agreement. Padmé smile became larger and she went in the ship.
" Master, did you notice that someone made nasty thing to our hyperdrive."
" I'm not your master anymore Anakin."
" It doesn't answer my question."
" You will be the death of me Anakin."
With that, they climb up in the ship, and two minutes later, they took off.
Ahsoka and Kuja looked at each other, not believing their eyes.
"They knew ? Why didn't they do anything ? They couldn't have repaired it in such short time!"
" Maybe we missed something."
They replayed the recording.
" There's something odd about Padmé Amidalla right arm."
" I didn't see anything." Kuja blinked.
" Zoom on It. I want to be sure."
The human did as he was told. A speeder pass behind her right arm.
" I don't see anything."
" Can you slow down the video please ?"
It was obvious now, even to the human, that there were a little break at that moment. Both of them find it very strange.
" It's not the same recording. Someone should have cut two different recordings and mixed it together."
" Why someone would do that? " Ahsoka frowned.
" Yes, why someone would make Master Ti accused of sabotage ? To put the Jedi on an complicated situation, too busy with it to bother to look elsewhere." Kuja respond, darkly.
" You have a Sith in mind, don't you ? It's impossible, Skyman killed him.
" Who said he didn't have any apprentice, other than Dooku ?
" Because we know that Master Skywalker was supposed to take this place. Which Sith Lord can be more powerful than the Chosen One, the being created by the Force to destroy the Sith ?"
" Can't find one right now, but we must find who he is."
" And where he doesn't want the Jedi to look."
" I will answer that If you don't mind. " a voice said behind them.
LikeI said earlier,leave a review!
