Kanan and Luke made their way swiftly and stealthily through the back streets of Coruscant. A few times they came close to running into some storm troopers, but they had been able to avoid them every time by either going under or over. Personally, Luke preferred over, those sewers were nasty. Finally they reached a deserted part of the city, a place where no one had dared to return to after the massive killing of the Jedi. In the center of this area was the old temple.
As they approached, Kanan whispered "Now we need to be careful. Just because it looks deserted doesn't mean that the Empire isn't keeping an eye on it or that they haven't left traps for returning Jedi." "Right." Luke replied. They slowly made their way towards the temple's entrance, awe filling Luke as he gazed upon the building that had once stood for so much more then what it did now.
Suddenly Kanan stopped, swiftly turning in a big circle, then slowly doing it again. Luke looked at him with confusion before asking, "Is everything alright Kanan?" "I thought I sensed… nah it's probably just the building giving off a weird energy, let's try to make this quick just in case though." Luke nodded and they both headed towards the door, which although it hadn't been opened in a while, it swung open easily.
Kanan led the way through the halls, halls that were still littered with the bones of the dead Jedi and clones. Here and there they found evidence of someone having been there since then, but how long ago they had been there was impossible to tell. Finally they made it to the room where all the holocrons had been kept. "Wait outside and keep watch, something doesn't feel right to me." Kanan told Luke. Luke nodded, but he felt inside that Kanan was just being jumpy about whatever it was he had felt outside.
Kanan was amazed to find many of the holocrons had been left and survived. He started filling his backpack with the most important ones and the ones that should contain the information they were looking for, there were just too many to take them all. Once he had that one filled, he opened the door and traded with Luke, filling his with as many as he could.
When he was done, he sadly looked around the room. There were still so many and who knows if they would ever be able to get back again. But they were running out of time anyway, who knows if Hera would still be there, it wasn't like fruit would take her that long to unload. Taking one last longing look around the room, Kanan left the room saying to Luke, "Come on, we need to get back to Hera before she has to take off."
Halfway through the temple, Kanan froze again before saying "Run Luke, and don't stop until we are back on the Ghost." Luke shot off, unquestioning as Kanan followed. Out of the temple they ran, through the back streets of Coruscant, over and under openings they reached, whichever was easiest. Luke looked back at Kanan and in the distance saw to figures in black following them, somehow at a much slower pace but always keeping them in sight.
Luke didn't know who they were, but Kanan obviously did and if he didn't want to meet up with them, then they must be bad news. Soon the docking bay where they left Hera came into sight, and they hurried in…. only to find the Ghost had already left!
