Comrade: Okay here's chapter three!
Chapter 3: Space travel
The Cruiser landed near Obi-Wan ad Yoda who looked at the weary Jedi as they got off, "Thanks for the ride Rex!" Anakin said with a smile
"Anytime sir!"
They approached the two Jedi's, "Master Obi-Wan! Master Yoda!" He bowed to Yoda so Ashoka and Jacob followed his example.
Master Yoda nodded, "Hm. Trouble you have with your new Padawan I hear."
Anakin and Ashoka looked at each other before Obi-Wan spoke up, "I was explaining your situation to Master Yoda."
Anakin gave him a look of disbelief, "Really?"
"If not ready for a Padawan you are then perhaps we can-." Anakin interrupted Master Yoda
"Now wait a minute, I admit that Ashoka is a little rough around the edges, but with a great deal of training and patience." He stressed on that last word causing the two Padawans to smile, "She might amount to something.
"Then go with you she will to the Teff Sector."
"Teff?" Asked Anakin in confusion, "That's a wild space, the droid army isn't even in the sector."
"Kidnap Jabba the Huts son has been." That caused Jacob's eyes to widen in shock because he has heard all about the Hut clan.
"You want me to rescue Jabba the Huts son?" Asked Anakin in disbelief.
Obi-Wan intervened, "Anakin we'll need the Hut's allegiance to gain an advantage over Dooku."
"Negotiate the Treaty with Jabba Obi-Wan will." Yoda explained, "Find the holders of Jabba's son your mission will be."
"Okay so Master and I will be negotiating with-."
"No I'm not bringing you face to face with Jabba yet." Obi-Wan said sternly
Jacob gaped in disbelief, "But you're my Master so I'm supposed to go with you!"
"Go with Skywalker you will for finding the Hutt is a must." Yoda said calmly defusing the situation.
"Come on Jolt it can't be that hard!" Ashoka said while Anakin sighed at the fact that he has to look out for two Padawans again in one day, "I'll find Rex and get the troops organized!" With that she took off.
"Don't worry Anakin just teach her everything that I taught you and she'll turn out fine." Obi-Wan said with a grin
"You know I have a feeling that this was your idea from the start." Anakin told him before he walked off.
Obi-Wan looked at Yoda, "Let's just hope that Anakin is ready for this responsibility." He said but Jacob caught that from him.
They got on the ship and Jacob sat down gingerly on his leg but Anakin caught that, "What's wrong with your leg?" He asked
"Nothing." Lied Jacob but Anakin grabbed it before he could react and Jacob hissed in pain
"You're injured." He said calmly, "When did you get injured?"
Ashoka was on her way back so Jacob said quickly, "From destroying the Generator but I didn't want you guys to worry about me."
Anakin understood because he's pulled that stunt a few times from when he was a Padawan, "You sure you can keep going?"
"It will take more than an injured leg to stop me!" Jacob said with a grin.
(Scene Shift)
After a very long space ride to Jacob's annoyance they were on a warship, Jacob was drinking a bottle of water when he approached Ashoka, "Are you going to punch me if I start talking to you?" He asked cautiously
She smirked, "That depends on what you say Jolt."
"Okay Snipes." He countered using Anakin's nickname for her in retaliation, "Doesn't this seem a little fishy? The whole kidnapping I mean."
"Well yeah it's a kidnapping so of course it seems a little fishy but we just have to get Hutt Junior back and we'll be done." Ashoka said like it was no problem
"Easier said than done." Muttered Jacob
"Come on Jolt this will be easier than those droids." She told him before she walked off.
Jacob shook his head and was happy that he had a conversation with her that didn't result in his arm being punched.
He walked around the ship looking around before he saw a clone going over his weapons, "Excuse me."
The clone snapped to attention, "Yes sir?"
Jacob scratched the back of his head, "Oh, uh well first off please don't call me sir it makes me feel old, but I just wanted to know where the bathroom was."
The clone pointed towards the left, "Over there sir."
"Thanks uh-." He waited
"Fred Coles."
"Thanks Fred!" With that he walked to the bathroom thinking that he needed to lay off the water. Once he got out he saw the clones gathered around Ashoka laughing so he approached the same time as Anakin.
"That sounds like a lot, even for a Jedi." Muttered one of the clones
"I've heard that you were surrounded by droids." Pointed out another one, "How'd you even get the shield down?"
Ashoka was smiling from telling the story, "Okay so there's a wall behind them with a hole in the middle so I pulled the wall down on top of the droids destroying them and saving them." The clones had a laugh at that.
"Not very modest are you Snipes?" Asked Jacob with a smirk
"Oh you know that it's true Jolt." Ashoka said
"Is that true sir?" Asked Rex with a smirk looking at Anakin
"Well most of it." He said with a small smile "All right men we've still got a job to do!"
"Yes sir!" The clones got to work and Anakin approached Ashoka, "You heard the General, move it!"
"Would this be a good time to teach you that a Jedi is humble my young Padawan?" Asked Anakin in good humor
"Sorry, just trying to keep the boys inspired is all." She said with a smile and Jacob was amazed at how quickly they went from annoying each other to getting along.
They were in their ships in a little bit, and by now Jacob was getting sick of flying before he saw a familiar clone, "Hey Fred!"
"Sir," He said before he remembered, "I mean hello Jacob."
"So you're on this mission too?" Jacob was trying to keep a conversation going
"Yeah it's my first one." He said, "Everyone else is more experienced than me."
Jacob smiled, "And pretty soon you'll get the same experience if not more!"
Fred smiled before he put his helmet on, "Well I'm to fight alongside you and General Skywalker in this fight."
"Well then welcome to the fight."
"Thank you." He said before he walked off to get the rest of his supplies and Jacob walked over to where Anakin and Ashoka were talking to Obi-Wan through a Hologram.
"All right Anakin; here's the story, Jabba's giving us only one planetary rotation to get his son back home to Tatooine safe and sound."
Anakin smirked, "It won't take us that long Master!"
"Well take extreme care; we have no idea who's holding Jabba's son." Obi-Wan told him, "When I finished negotiations with him I will join you."
As they flew through the air Ashoka was looking nervous, "Stay close to me if you can." Anakin said with a smirk
"It won't be a problem Master." Scoffed Ashoka
Anakin got serious, "This isn't practice Ashoka."
"I know and I'll try not to get you killed." She finished that with a smile
"I bet I can take out more droids than you." Jacob challenged.
"We'll see Jolt." She said before something hit the ship and it shook
"We're under attack!" Shouted one of the clones
To Be Continued…
Yeah not much fighting in this one but the next chapter will have fighting so stay tuned and Fred is an OC clone that I decided to base off my best friend so he's going to be in this story for a while.
