Ok, I'll start uploading the chapters when I finish them. :)
CHAPTER 3
"We've been searching for hours and there's no sign of her. I think we should contact the rest of the councel." Windu said with heavy sigh. Anakin, Ahsoka, and Windu were all exhausted from their searching, and had found out no more since they had left the bar.
They walked half-heartedly back to the ship. When they got there they couldn't get the communication systems to work. "We'll have to go back to Corouscant." Windu said frustratedly setting in the cordinates.
"What? But she could still be down there! Do you even care about the safety of your own padawan?" Anakin yelled in astonishment.
"Even if she is annoying." Ahsoka muttered, recieving glares from both the masters.
"Of course I care! Trust me, it's breaking my heart to know I have to leave where she could still be. But we have no other choice Skywalker." he said as they went into Hyperspace.
After a few hours of silence, they were arriving at Corauscant. Anakin finally spoke. "Master, I'm sorry for doubting you. I know it's hard to loose your padawan."
"Forgiven and understood Skywalker. Padawans are precious to us, aren't they?" he said and they both glanced at the sleeping Ahsoka on the bench. She rolled of the bench when they jerked out of hyperspace with a loud "thud".
"OW! Who did that?" she whined rubbing her lekku.
"You rolled off the bench little one." Windu said as he lowered them down into the Temple hangar.
They all ran inside and into the councel chamber. The whole councel turned, not expecting them. Barriss was in the middle of the room finishing up telling them how her mission went
when they barged in. They noticed Anakin seemed a bit flustered, Ahsoka was grumpy and rubbing her lekku still, and Windu seemed very frustrated. He went and blopped down in his seat and Ahsoka and Anakin stood by Barriss. Ahsoka brightened up when she saw her friend.
"How'd your mission go?" Asked Ki-Adi-Mundi.
"and where is Padawan Oniri?" Asked Adi Galia
"We now know the Zygerrians are taking beings off of the planet and enslaving them." Anakin said and looked to Windu.
"We only know that because they took Nara when we weren't looking." he said grinding his teeth. They gasped and looked between each other, before Windu continued. "We tried everything, but she was no where to be found."
"She should've been more careful where she was walking." Ahsoka muttered. Barriss looked at her shocked. Then Anakin just snapped from her comments and smacked the back of her head. "Ow! What was that for?" she yelled, forgetting it was in front of the councel
"You need to learn to hold your tongue. You've been nothing but a brat ever since you met Nara. If you don't be quiete, soon I'm going to put you on library duty until further notice." he said, his padawan glaring up at him.
"You wouldn't dare..."
"Try me." He said holding her glared before she turned away with a huff.
Windu just smiled that Anakin was getting after his padawan. All of the sudden the councel's holo-projecters started to blink.
"We're getting a transmission from...the Zygerrian queen herself." Obi-Wan said looking shocked. He clicked the answer button, and she appeared in the middle of the room.
"Ah, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and his little PET." she said looking at Obi-wan, Anakin, and Ahsoka. "Are you Jedi really getting involved in the rebuilding of our empire again?" she asked with a disbelieving face. "You really should stay away."
"Well, when you kidnap the Republic's people, we're bound to get involved." Obi-wan said with a glare.
"I supposed so. But if I were you, I would stop before we enslave all the OTHER Jedi." she said with an evil smile.
"What are you talking about?" Anakin retaliated.
"Oh, you mean none of you are missing one of your precious litte padawans?" she asked. Some guards came in with Nara. She was bruised and cut, and looked exhausted. She had purple short shorts on with purple fabric coming from the back and hanging down to her ankles. Her purple tube top was very tight fitting. It was covered by a sheer, see-through, purple fabric that made a shirt. It was tight fitting and showed her belly, then had short flowing sleeves. The area between her elbow and wrists was covered by a silk criss-crossing ribbon, the same ribbon that held on her heels which made her practicly stand on her toes they were so high. The remaining ribbon tied her hair in a bun, with a few strands falling out.
"Nara?" Windu asked, shocked at what she was wearing. She looked up in surprise.
"Master Windu!" she said in a relieved voice while running over to the holo-gram. Right as she got there, her shock collar was activated. She screamed and fell down to the ground in pain, still being shocked. She continued to scream until the shocking stopped and she was left breathing heavily. Still breathing heavily, she looked up and weakly whined out. "Master. Help." She was then smacked repeatedly with the shock sticks from two of the guards that had caught up with her. She screamed, bruises forming in the places she wacked.
The queen held up her hand for them to stop when Nara started to whimper in pain, no longer being able to scream. As soon as they stopped, Nara went into a violent fit of coughing. She could up a little blood, then tasting the blood in her mouth, threw up more. She collapsed next to her own blood, breathing heavily.
"Leave. Her. Alone." Windu growled out, horrified at what his padawan was put through.
"She's the perfect little slave. She only has a few problems, like wanting to go home or to be with her previous "master", but those will soon leave her. They're so little, she won't require any processing." The queen said yet another evil smile, this one teasing the Jedi. "She puts up alot less resistence then you did Skywalker, even though you both grew up slaves. It's shocking how different types of slaves have different levels of obedience."
Ahsoka and Barriss looked shocked. "She grew up a slave?" they asked in unison and disbelief. Ahsoka started to feel bad about how she treated her.
"Different slaves?" Plo Koon asked confused.
"Oh yes. Skywalker was a working slave. She was a slave for the Hutts. Both VERY different." Anakin shuddered at the thought of being a slave for the Hutts. Nara got up slowly and dusted herself off. "Good, now are you going to be an obedient little slave?" the queen asked in a menacing voice.
They all waited tensely to see what would happen. She eventually found the strength and weakly rasped out while looking up to the queen. "Yes, my queen." The Jedi gasped, looking between displeased and shocked. When she met their gazes, they saw the terror and plea for help in her eyes. Her and Windu's eyes locked, and tears started to stream down her cheeks.
"Now, go get ready." The queen dismissed her.
"Ready? For what ma'am?" she asked braking the contact and looking to her in confusion.
"I have some special guests coming tonight. I did some research on you, and I know how well you can dance and sing. You'll be performing for them tonight." she said. Nara opened her mouth to protest but no words came out. "Do you have something to say, skug?" she asked with a stern look, her hand on the trigger for Nara's shock collar.
"No, Mistress. I'll go prepare." she said, her head hung low. She looked back up to the Jedi as a silent plea for help before a guard pulled her away. As soon as they heard the door shut, Windu looked like he was going to murder the queen.
"She's only a girl! Let her go and leave her out of this." He growled. "I'll fight all of your men, as long as you let her go."
"How about no? She's mine now. She's not just any girl, she's royal blood and has talent. Good luck getting her back." With that, she shut off the communication.
They all stood there stunned. Ahsoka finally broke the silence. "Did she say Royal blood?"
BA BOOM! There we go! :D What'd 'cha think?
I'm currently working on Chapter four and having a little trouble, so it might take longer then the others. Also, I had been writing some before I even got to upload it, so that's why they're snapping out all over the place. :p
I guess I really should've thought of an ending for the story BEFORE I wrote it, but I'm just thinking of it as I go along. :p MUAHAHAHA! Even I'M left in suspense xD
And I'm gonna start making Ahsoka nicer. :p I'm so evil.
Anyways, I'll get the next one up ASAP. Please R&R! :3
