Chapter 2: Taking out the Generator
Anakin was watching the army through a pair of Binoculars while Jacob and Ashoka leaned against a wall far away from each other, "So what's the plan?" Asked Ashoka excitedly
"Oh I thought that you two were the ones with the plan." He said snidely
"Okay Master Skywalker I get that you don't like us but shouldn't we work together to take down the droids instead of arguing?" Suggested Jacob
"Jolt's right for once."
"It's Jacob!" Muttered Jacob at the indignation of his nickname
"We're the ones with enthusiasm and you're the one with the experience which I'm looking forward to learning from."
Anakin smirked, "Well first we need to get behind that shield then get past their tank lines."
"Why don't we just go around and outflank them?" Asked Ashoka
"Or underneath since there's a bridge?"
"Both of those ideas will take too long." Anakin said
"Sneak through the middle then?"
"Impossible… Unless, you can turn yourself into a droid." He had something
"All right you win my first lesson will be to wait while you come up with the answer." Ashoka joked
"Well the waits over, I got a plan!" Anakin said immediately
"That was fast." In a minute they were in a metal box crouching to move past the shield, "This is your plan?" Asked Jacob in disbelief
"This is a stupid plan." Whispered Ashoka, "We should just fight these guys instead of sneaking around."
"Except for the fact that their deflective energy shield just passed over us." Anakin pointed out as they slowly moved the box through the enemy lines without them noticing.
"Man these droids are stupid if they can't see this box moving." Muttered Jacob
"And here's a lesson, if you can't cross their lines then let their lines cross over you!"
Ashoka rolled her eyes, "If you say so." After a few more minutes of crawling she spoke up again, "I think we made it pass all of them master, we may pull this off yet!"
"We still have a ways to go before we get to the Generators station."
Now Ashoka got whiney, "Do we still need this thing? I can't take it anymore, I have to stand up!"
"Crybaby." Coughed Jacob and he got punched again, "OW! Stop doing that!"
"Stop doing what?" She asked smirking
"You have to be careful!" Whispered Anakin who was annoyed at the little outburst, "You never know what you're going to run into!"
As if on cue they walked right into a shield droid.
"See what I mean?!" Asked Anakin
The droid started to blast at them while Anakin and Ashoka activated their Lightsabers. Anakin had a blue crystal while Ashoka had a green one.
Jacob activated his to show a blue crystal the same color as Anakin's.
They deflected the shots while backing up, "Well this plan has gone straight to hell!" Shouted Jacob, "Now what?"
"We can't beat its shield!" Observed Ashoka
"Run!" Ordered Anakin
"What?! Jedi don't run!" Argued Ashoka
"I said run!" Ashoka and Jacob ran and Jacob noticed that the droid's shield dropped while it rolled into a ball and chased after them, "Stop!"
"Make up your mind!" Ashoka muttered
"I said stop!" She turned to see why and she cut through the droid along with Anakin
They deactivated their Lightsabers, "Good, you two take directions well." He sarcastically said and Ashoka glared at his back while Jacob sighed in annoyance
In a moment they were climbing up as the noise of the generator got louder and they could see it, "There it is, come on!" Ashoka said
"Well this is good." Jacob said with a grin, "Now if this is the first day I can't wait for when we finish our training."
"It could be more exciting Jolt." Pointed out Ashoka
Jacob's eye twitched at the nickname but he didn't say anything.
They ran towards the shield before stopping behind some cover a few feet away, "Where are the guards?" Asked Jacob not liking this one bit.
Anakin narrowed his eyes as he looked around, "Stay close, we've got to be careful-."
"Come on!" Ashoka ran ahead ignoring Anakin
"Wait!" But she ran ahead.
"Its booby trapped isn't it?" Asked Jacob sighing in annoyance
"Yes."
Then Ashoka tripped over something and droids came shooting out of the ground.
Anakin and Jacob activated their Lightsabers, "Forget about the droids, just set those charges!" He called out while he sliced through some of them and Jacob did a flip before cutting two in half
Now this is what I'm talking about! Jacob thought with a wild grin before he saw one sneaking behind Ashoka but she dived out of the way and pulled out her Lightsaber before jumping over it and cutting it in half and using Force Push to blast it back awakening the other droids and Jacob had to dive out of the way. On second thought this might be too much.
"Sorry!" Apologized Ashoka sheepishly
"Who's side are you on anyway?!" Shouted Anakin as he moved out of the way and cut the power cells in the droid.
"Setting the charges." Ashoka said and she put them on while Anakin and Jacob cut their way through the other droids.
By now both Anakin and Jacob were surrounded, "We could use a little help!" Anakin called out.
"Sky Guy, Jolt, don't move!" Ashoka told them and she closed her eyes and focused
"Why?!" Shouted Jacob before he heard a noise behind him and he turned to see the wall falling towards them and he crouched as did Anakin and the wall fell down with the two holes going over them killing the droids and taking a few years off the Jedi's life.
As Ashoka approached them Anakin yelled out, "You could've gotten us killed!"
"I know what I'm doing!" Ashoka protested.
"… Thanks." Jacob forced out because even though he was scared to death about the wall she did save his life
"I had everything under control!" Shouted Anakin
Wow he's really ungrateful.
"I just saved your life!" Ashoka protested
"Did you get the charges set?"
"Yes." Ashoka said with a smirk
"Then what are you waiting for?"
Ashoka rolled her eyes before she pressed a button and the generator exploded getting rid of the energy shield bubble.
As the shield disappeared Ashoka sat down looking down while Anakin was watching the fleet come in, "About time." Muttered Jacob as he looked at the remains of the droids, "We practically did their job for them."
Anakin was about to say something before he saw how Ashoka looked so he walked over and sat next to her, "You're reckless little one." He said and if possible Ashoka looked more disappointed, "You would never have made it as Obi-Wans Padawan… But you might make it as mine." Now Ashoka looked at him in astonishment. "Come on." With that he started to walk.
Ashoka picked up her bag and followed him but Jacob stayed behind for a second before he looked at his leg to see a little blood coming out. It was from the fight with the droids after Ashoka awoke all of them.
"She doesn't need to know that." He muttered as he tightened a bandage on it before rushing after them when they met a Cruiser that picked them up.
"Great job General Skywalker!" Congratulated Rex before he turned to the two Padawans, "You two as well." Ashoka and Jacob smiled at that.
Then Jacob looked at Ashoka, "So friends?" He asked holding out his hand
She smiled but she punched his arm, not as hard as before, "Sure thing Jolt."
