I do not own Harry Potter or Star Wars, the only thing I own is the OC in this story.
Hello guys, Badger here. I hope everyone is doing well. This chapter was delayed somewhat, due to updating other stories and because I am trying to book a hospital appointment. I've had reasons to believe that I have ADHD and want to get tested, just to find out.
Anyway, you don't care about that. You care about the new chapter. This chapter is on the shorter side, slightly shorter then previous chapters. I don't know why, but this was annoying to write. I think it's because I just didn't know how to put my thoughts for the chapter into writing, so this chapter may seem a little rough in some areas. But I'm sure it's fine.
I hope you enjoy and I will see you at the end.
Chapter 7
Send In The Search Team
Mace Windu stood with Yoda and Obi Wan Kenobi, as they looked through records of security footage, hoping to find where Ahsoka and Harry could have gone. As they seemed to have gone missing, after Kit Fisto dropped Harry back at the Temple, when they were finished at the Chancellors Office, they were able to narrow the time down. Meanwhile, Anakin and Fisto were looking through records of ships entering and exiting the many docking bays around the Temple, believing that, if any ships had left after Fisto and Harry parted ways, would leave clues for them to follow. The three Jedi Masters didn't have to wait long as Anakin and Fisto ran in, with Fisto holding a data pad in his hands.
"Young Skywalker, Master Fisto" Yoda said "Found anything, have you?"
"I believe we do" Anakin nodded
"Looking through the records, we found that a lone ship in Loading Dock 7 left the docking bay, mere minutes after I parted ways with young Harry" Fisto stated, looking through the file
Nodding, Obi Wan went through the records, where he was able to find the security footage from Loading Dock 7 and brought it up, for everyone to watch. The Jedi watched, where they saw a man, they could only assume to be a Bounty Hunter, pacing back and forth in front of his ship, seemingly talking to someone. It wasn't long until Harry appeared where the two conversed, though they were too far to be heard. Ahsoka then appeared mere moments later. She conversed with Harry for a moment, before the Bounty Hunter spoke up, where the three then entered the ship. After a few seconds, the ship slowly lifted itself off of the platform and flew off.
"That wasn't as helpful as I hoped it would be" Mace Windu commented "However, it seems obvious that they weren't kidnapped"
"Curious, it still is" Yoda spoke up "Who that man is, we need to figure out and, enter his ship, why young Harry and Padawan Tano would"
"Were you able to find records on the ship in question?" Obi Wan asked "Docking Bays usually have records on those that use their services"
"It was easy to find" Fisto nodded "The ship is a Gymsnor-3 light freighter, with the ships serial ID, if the ship lands on another planet, we'll know"
"Contact any available Jedi, we must" Yoda scratched his chin "Find them, we need, before the dark lord of the Sith first does"
"Already on it!" Anakin exclaimed, snatching the data pad from Kit Fisto and ran out of the room
"Anakin wait!" Obi Wan shouted
Obi Wan started chasing after him, but Anakin was too fast and was already gone by the time Obi Wan got out of the room. Obi Wan sighed, irritated.
"I hate it when he does that" He muttered
…
Meanwhile, back on the planet Chuur, Harry and Ahsoka boarded the ship, along with James, after the old wizard had packed a lot of things into his trunk, where he shrunk it down and placed it in one of his pockets. Ahsoka looked in awe when James done so, as she had never seen such things before. Harry found it slightly amusing, though he could understand her awe. He was the same way the first time he saw magic.
When they entered the ship, James' presence immediatley caught the attention of Dahar, who placed a hand on his blaster, cautiously.
"Who is this?" He asked "He doesn't match the description of who you are looking for"
"This is James Badger" Harry replied "He's going to help us with our search for Sirius"
"So, I'm guessing he isn't here then?" Dahar guessed, before he turned to James "So, how will you be able to help?"
"I come from the same planet as young Harry here" James replied "I can see things, things that have happened, as well as glimpses of what will happen and, though it's unclear, I believe that Sirius is out there somewhere…it's just a matter of finding out where"
"So my search did prove to be successful" Dahar muttered to himself "Well, I have a star map, containing the planets where people who match Sirius' description have popped up, whilst some of them may be flukes, I'm sure one of them is the man we're looking for"
"Well, let's take a look then" James said
Dahar nodded and the four of them surrounded the circular table, where Dahar clicked a few buttons, bring up holographic projections of several planets, where he removed planet Chuur from the list, knowing it was a dead end. James' eyes went from planet to planet, his eyes lingering on each one for several moments, as if he was scanning them, looking for something that no one else could see. Dahar clicked a few more buttons, where the map zoomed in on one of the smaller planets.
"The oldest record comes from the planet Lendin" He said "According to what I found, records report of a man being found…apparently he was unconscious and was taken away somewhere"
"Who took him?" Ahsoka asked "Medical Authorities? Law Enforcement?"
"I'm not sure, that's as far as my search brought me on the matter" Dahar shrugged
"Seems like a good place to start" James scratched his chin "Hopefully, by asking around, we should be able to find out more"
"It's settled then" Dahar said, entering the ships cockpit "Setting course for Lendin now"
…
Back in the Temple, Yoda sat with Mace Windu and Obi Wan Kenobi as they, and the other available Council Members. Those that weren't on the planet, were there as Holograms. Mace Windu had informed them about the situation and they were as equally surprised as them.
"I don't understand" Ki Adi Mundi said, in his seat "Why would young Harry and Padawan Tano willingly go with a Bounty Hunter of all people?"
"That is what we hope to find out" Mace Windu said "Young Skywalker has already decided to go after them himself, however, we're going to need all the help we can get if we hope to find them"
"Master Fisto, the records, do you have?" Yoda asked
"Yes, after Young Skywalker ran off with them, I had to gather the information again" Fisto replied, looking slightly irritated "With the ships serial ID, it should be easy to track down"
"It's only a matter of who goes after them" Obi Wan commented, scratching his beard "We can't send too many Jedi after them, the Separatists have gotten more cocky in their attacks and the Jedi are already stretched thin across the galaxy, we can't afford to stretch them any further"
"Hmm…Master Fisto, go you should" Yoda said, after a moment's thought "Enjoyed your presence, Harry did, makes sense it does for you to go"
"I'll gather a small group of Clones and head out as soon as possible" Kit Fisto bowed, a small smile on his face
"I'll help you" The hologram of Aayla Secura said, causing everyone to look at her "I'm currently out in deep space, if they've arrived at another planet, I'll be able to find them quicker and help them until reinforcements arrive, if they're in danger"
"Agree, I do" Yoda nodded "But be careful you must, dangerous it is, for a Jedi to go alone"
"I'll be fine Master Yoda" Aayla reassured "I can take care of myself"
"Well, if that's all sorted, Master Secura and Master Fisto, I expect reports on Harry and Padawan Tano, as soon as you've been able to locate them" Windu spoke up "May the Force be with you both"
…
Anakin held an arm up, to protect his eyes from the sand that start being blown in the air, by chilly gusts of wind. After getting in his Starfighter, he gave R2 the records of the ships serial ID, Master Fisto had gathered, to see if it had arrived at another planet. After several minutes of scanning, R2 has been able to locate the ship thanks to its navigational data. R2 had located the ship on the planet Chuur, a small desolate planet in the Outer Rim. After arriving in the location where R2 was able to find the ship, in question, it seemed that the ship had already left, the marks of the landing gear in the sand being evidence to this. What was curious, however, was the small shack that stood alone in the middle of the desert. With a cautious hand on his lightsaber, Anakin approached. It was quiet and that unnerved him. It was too quiet for his liking.
When his hand touched the handle to the door, he opened it, activating his lightsaber, as the door slowly swung open. To his surprise, the shack was empty. There was nothing inside. No furniture. Just an empty room. Deactivating his lightsaber, Anakin made his way back to his Starfighter, where R2 was watching him. Even though R2 was a droid, Anakin could tell he was confused.
"R2, scan for that ship again, see if it's arrived anywhere else" He said "This is a dead end"
R2 whistled and whirred in acknowledgment, before he started scanning. Anakin, meanwhile, sighed, as he leant against his ship. Ahsoka better have a good reason for leaving and he was definitely having words with Harry as well.
…
Harry made his way down the ship, looking for James. Everything the old wizard told him was still running through his head. Ron and Hermione. The war with Voldemort. What happened to the Wizarding World. Everything. Harry wasn't entirely sure what to do next. However, he still had questions about his strange growth in power. And, it seemed James was the only one who could answer that question.
In the storage hangar, of the ship, he found James going through the stuff in his trunk, that he had now unshrunk.
"How can I help you Harry?" James asked, not looking up from what he was doing
"Well…I thought you could help me" Harry replied, wondering about how to word what he wanted to ask "I noticed a while ago that…my magic is stronger then it was before…I thought perhaps you would know why"
James stopped looking through the book in his hands and finally faced Harry, where Harry felt like he was staring into his soul, like he was being judged. After a few moments, James closed his book and put it inside the trunk which also closed, with a click. Standing straight, his hands behind his back, James turned fully, in Harry's direction.
"That, I cannot answer" James said "I am unsure myself, though I imagine, it has something to do with you running into the Veil of Death…as for why, you guess is as good as mine…but that, is not what you should be asking"
"What…what should I be asking?" Harry asked, confused
"How are you going to learn magic now?" James stated "No doubt, you hoped to find Sirius go back home and continue your Magical Education…but now, that's no longer a possibility...the galaxy is a dangerous place Harry and, without proper training or magical teaching, you won't last long…which is why I'm going to teach you"
"You…you're going to teach me magic?" Harry asked, surprised
"I don't see why not" James shrugged "I have a lot of books about spells and charms, it will be nice to use them again, instead of leaving them on a shelf, gathering dust"
"That…will be nice…thank you" Harry said, after a moment
"Hey, you might want to prepare yourself" Dahar's voice rang out from the cockpit "We'll be coming out of hyperspace in just a second"
Harry and James made their way back into the cockpit, just as they exited hyperspace, where they were greeted by an ominous looking planet in front of them.
"This is Lendin?" Ahsoka asked "Doesn't look like a friendly place"
"Probably because it's not" James spoke up "Lendin is home to many Bounty Hunters, Treasure Hunters, Pirates and Assassins…make sure you don't have anything valuable on you, anyone would try to swipe it"
"Great" Dahar muttered, looking through his records "let's hope someone can help us find this man of yours Potter, there's a landing bay not far from where the reports were coming from, I'd grab a seat, just in case things get a little bumpy"
…
Palpatine leant back in his seat, as he tapped his fingers against his desk. He could sense that the Jedi were in slight distress. After some meditation, he found that Harry and Padawan Ahsoka Tano had disappeared, seemingly boarding a ship with a Bounty Hunter. What was interesting was that, they seemed to do so willingly. Meaning they weren't kidnapped. It made Palpatine wonder why they would leave Coruscant, with a Bounty Hunter. Especially Harry, as the Jedi were currently looking for the boys home planet. There had to be a reason why he would leave. If Palpatine knew that reason, he could use that to help turn the boy to the Dark Side. However, as he was the Chancellor, he couldn't look for the boy himself. If the boy was to be found, then he would need to send Dooku out to find him.
If anyone could turn the boy to the Darkside, it would be Dooku.
…
And that is the new chapter done.
I hope you liked it. It makes you wonder about the future though, huh? The Jedi looking for Harry and Count Dooku, possibly going after Harry, if the ending is a hint to anything, which it is. If Harry does come across Count Dooku, or another character like Asajj Ventress or General Grievous, what do you think will happen? Probably carnage. The idea of adding Dooku into the story was actually a late addition. When I thought about the idea, it just made sense, so expect Dooku in future chapters.
Now, before I end it here, I need your help. I have, somewhat, of an idea for a Harry Potter crossover with the tv show Lucifer, however, I don't know if it's been done already. So, if you know of any Harry Potter/Lucifer crossovers leave the names of the fanfic, so I can check it out. This way I can avoid making something too similar to what others have done.
That is all for now, I hope you enjoyed and I will see you next time.
