Hello, people.
Thank you for all the reviews :)
Sorry about how long it took to update. Writers block kills. :(
I don't own anything... *bursts into tears... runs away crying, thinking of a way to own Star Wars.*
Zoe and Casey hung from electro- bonds while Obi Wan was stuck in a ray shield.
The door opened and Dooku stalked in, a grin spread across his face.
"Dooku." Zoe growled, her grudge for Dooku cutting Anakin's hand off coming forward.
"What?" Obi Wan said, clearly confused about how a girl from a different galaxy knew about Dooku.
"This is a mistake, a terrible mistake, they have gone too far!" Dooku cried. Zoe and Casey looked at each other with looks that said 'liar' all over.
"I thought you were behind this, Dooku." Obi Wan hissed.
"And you are!" Zoe piped up, receiving a death glare from Casey.
"And who are you?" Dooku loomed over the two teenagers.
"I- I am Casey and this is Zoe."
"Why do you think I am behind this, Zoe?" Dooku sneered.
"I... umm... you... well..." Zoe studdered.
"Please excuse Zoe, she jumps to conclusions." Casey hissed.
"Very well. Now, Master Kenobi, what if I told you that the senate was under the influence of a sith called Darth Sideous?"
"I don't believe you, the Jedi council would've known." Obi Wan replied.
"I speak the truth. Join me, Obi Wan, and together, we will destroy the sith!" Dooku said.
"Never." Obi Wan replied.
"It may be difficult to secure your release." Dooku stalked off.
As soon as the door shut Obi Wan asked, "what was that?"
"Huh?" Zoe asked.
"You weren't even in this galaxy four standard hours ago, now you suddenly know who Dooku is."
"I..." Zoe began, looking to Casey for help.
"Um... We heard about him in the news one day. Our plant is very well informed on current events outside of our galaxy." Casey explained.
"Alright, all we can do now is hope Anakin retransmitted the message just like I told him to." Obi Wan sighed.
...
Anakin and Padme landed on Geonosis and walked in the factory.
"Who do you think those two girls were?" Padme asked as they walked through the hallway.
"I don't know, but whoever they are, Obi Wan trusts them." Anakin replied.
"I hope th-" Padme began.
"Wait." Anakin held up a hand, signaling Padme to stop. Before Padme could ask what was going on, Anakin whirled around, decapitating a Geonosian.
As more came spilling through the walls, Anakin and Padme ran through the door and onto a small ledge.
The ledge began to retract. Anakin grabbed hold of a bar, but Padme fell.
"Padme!" Anakin cried.
Anakin immediately let go to help but was soon held up by many Geonosians. To avoid them, he jumped down a ledge to be met with some machines that could cut him in half if he made one wrong move on the narrow conveyor belt.
While dodging them, more Geonosians began to swarm in. Anakin tried to ignight his lightsaber, but all he got was a small spark.
"Not again, Obi Wan is going to kill me." Anakin groaned as he looked around.
He was surrounded by Geonosians and who he figured was the bounty hunter Obi Wan had tracked here in the middle.
"Don't move, Jedi." He cocked a gun at Anakin's head.
As much as Anakin wanted to beat the armour off the guy, he new that a bullet would rip through him before he could get two steps forward.
Anakin dropped his fried lightsaber in defeat and was led into a room where Padme was sitting, tyed to a chair.
"Ani," Padme gasped.
"Anakin Skywalker." A voice growled from a dark corner, the accent unmistakeable.
"Count Dooku." Anakin glared as the count stepped from the shadows.
"You are holding a Jedi knight, Obi Wan Kenobi and two young girls. As a representative, I command you to release us and them." Padme said.
"Oh no. I'm afraid the Jedi and the others were accused of trespassing and treason and will be executed today, along with you." Dooku sneered.
Anakin and Padme passed each other worried glances as they were unchained and led to a cart that led to the arena they knew held a Jedi, two girls and, most likely, their fate.
"I love you." Padme whispered.
"I thought we agreed it would destroy us. That we'd be forced to live a lie." Anakin looked down at the senator.
"I think our lives are about to be destroyed anyway."
Padme and Anakin leaned in until their lips met, just as they had on Naboo at the lake house, although this time they didn't break apart. They deepened the kiss until the chariot began to move, leading them into the arena.
Obi Wan and the two girls were tied to poles. Geonosians were crowding the arena, apparently eager to watch Jedi and humans die. In the arch box, Dooku, Viceroy Gunray, Jango Fett and his son stood, smug as ever.
As Anakin and Padme were tied to the poles, Obi Wan said, "I was beginning to wonder if you had got my message."
"We retransmitted it just as you requested... Then we decided to come and rescue you." Anakin replied.
Obi Wan and the two girls looked up then back to Anakin. "Good job." They all said, dripping with sarcasm.
The announcers voice soon boomed, announcing the executions.
With that, 5 beasts stepped out, ready for the kill.
Heheheh I loved that chapter... Next one is the fight scene *squeels with excitement*
