Chapter 6

A/N 22/6/2016: So, this chapter's changes are mostly fixing up my writing style, and also grammar fixes, nothing else.

Perspiration was falling off the Chosen One's neck, as he defended himself from all the blades coming at him, the blades of Samurai Goroh's thugs.

Being Falcon's friend, Anakin Skywalker had many confrontations with Goroh, who had made an enemy out of him, since he was the only one that could beat Falcon in F-Zero, and Goroh was determined to beat both Skywalker, and Falcon.

Behind him, his brother, Obi-Wan Kenobi, was fighting behind him. Anakin smiled a bit at Obi-Wan, who was focused on fighting the enemy, this reminded the former Jedi Knight of the Clone War.

"Obi-Wan." The owner of the Sky Lion called, the Jedi Master responded by glancing at Anakin.

"Yes?" Obi-Wan simply replied, as Anakin smiled

"Why not lets use the Force?" The question was asked the immediate moment Obi-Wan walked back.

The two Jedi smiled at each other, as two lightsabers were deactivated to their hilt. All of Goroh's bandits looked questioningly at the two they were tasked to kill, what type of warrior would lower their swords in the heat of battle?

Obi-Wan and Anakin answered that question as they raised their arms, concentrating on the power that fuelled them to create a massive Force Wave.

All of the bandits were sent flying back by the dozens, all hitting the environment of dark bushes and trees, rendering them all unconscious. But, there were those who did not hit the environment, and stood back up with even more motivation to kill.

"Force!" Anakin muttered in frustration, of the failure, both unaware of the pun Anakin made.

"Anakin, please do not say that…" Obi-Wan started, making his voice soft and croaky in the process

Anakin interrupted immediately, stating, "It's disrespectful… I know."

The pair activated their lightsabers again, attempting to fight off the thugs, but what they didn't notice was two F-Zero machines coming along.

Captain Falcon saw the glows of the lightsabers, and immediately knew it was his friends. That's when the internal speakers of the Blue Falcon crackled, the voice of Ahsoka Tano was transmitted from her Orange Eagle.

"They seem to be in a lot of trouble, any ideas?" Ahsoka asked, concerned for Anakin

"Drive in." Falcon confidently stated.

The Blue Falcon accelerated, as it's right pedal was pressed. Hard. The G-Diffuser and engines howled in protest to the speed that the machine was accumulating. But Falcon did not stop there, he continued until the Captain's vehicle was noticed by everyone.

"Falcon!" Both Anakin and Obi-Wan called out, as every one of Goroh's bandits ran out, not wanting to deal with Captain Falcon.

"Anakin! We need to go to your place, quick!" Falcon exclaimed, as the Orange Eagle pulled up and revealed Ahsoka to be inside

"Where's the Sky Lion?" Anakin asked quickly, as Falcon nodded his head sadly

"Your place. Hop on!" The Captain held Anakin as he jumped in

Anakin went into the Blue Falcon, as Obi-Wan went into the Orange Eagle. Both vehicles flew ahead, accelerating fast. Though the Orange Eagle was ahead due to it's more advanced booster class, and the two machines were constantly boosting right then.

"What's going on?" Anakin asked, angrily

"I'll tell you more once we get to your place." Falcon vaguely stated, making Anakin frown

But their argument didn't have time to form, as Ahsoka contacted the Blue Falcon from her own vehicle, the internal speakers crackled on both vehicles.

"Me and Falcon had the liberty to get Obi-Wan an F-Zero vehicle, we called it the Yellow Hornet" Ahsoka stated, as Obi-Wan's hand immediately went to his chin, Ahsoka continued as Obi-Wan thought about this development, "As Falcon said, all the details of this will be discussed at your place Master, all I'll say about it is that this will require a lot of racing."

A grin formed on Anakin's face, he loved piloting and racing. This mission will probably be easy, those are the words that were in Anakin's mind, as he was blissfully unaware of who was involved in this.

"Don't go exploding stuff yet, my friend, you don't even know a single detail of this." Falcon warned, in a teasing tone.

"I don't always explode stuff." The former Jedi huffed

"Yes you do Anakin." Obi-Wan spoke from the Orange Eagle, as the man who the statement was aimed for frowned.

The four racers quickly arrived at the main point of Mute City using the numerous emergency lanes that led to the centre of the megacity. They approached Anakin's secret garage, which immediately opened it's doors when the Blue Falcon and Orange Eagle were scanned.

The two vehicles slowly entered the expansive, white and bright garage, where the Sky Lion was parked, Obi-Wan realised that it looked like a light blue version of a Nubian N-1 Starfighter, except smaller and had the number '42' printed on.

Beside the Sky Lion there was a yellow vehicle, it was shaped like a generic F-Zero vehicle from the days of the Original F-Zero. Obi-Wan guessed that it was the Yellow Hornet.

"So, Falcon, what's the biz?" Anakin asked, the two other Jedi glanced at the Chosen One in confusion, of the words that were said

"Samurai Goroh isn't the only one involved in this. I found out something terrible." Falcon answered.

Ahsoka decided that she had no time for suspense, so she shouted, "What?"

Everyone glanced at Ahsoka, before Falcon walked towards the holotable on the middle of the room, it was compatible with holochips from the Jedi's home realm. The Captain pulled out a holochip from his pocket, and inserted it to a slot on the holotable, an image of Samurai Goroh and Don Genie negotiating appeared on the top of the table. Everyone in the room, except the one who had the holochip, gasped, as they realised what Falcon meant.

"Don Genie struck a deal with Goroh, Anakin, attacking you and Kenobi was only part of the plan, there was one major piece to the plan." The Captain told everyone, specifically Anakin.

"What was it?" Anakin asked, now getting concerned, if Goroh and Genie were both in this, then the results were not good

"Engineers who originally worked for Black Shadow managed to create a machine… exactly the same to what Obi-Wan and Ahsoka have, a Realm Remote." Was the answer from Falcon, as the two Jedi tried to process the words, Anakin paled considerably from that statement, but it got worse as Falcon continued, "The plan of theirs is to use Republic Technology in order to cheat F-Zero, beat us both and possibly kill us."
"Republic? They accessed our universe!" Ahsoka exclaimed in anger

"Yes. They also kidnapped someone high up in order to do that." Was the final statement before Anakin ran towards Falcon, and put his face close to the other's.

"Who was it?" The Jedi Knight asked, fear laced in his voice

"I'm sorry Anakin, but it was Head of State, Padmé Amidala!" Falcon changed the image, so it showed Padmé on the holotable.

All three Jedi gasped at that, Obi-Wan thought that Padmé had been okay, but then… it had been one month since the Jedi Master visited her.

"WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING!" Anakin shouted, giving all the energy he had into it, Falcon staggered back from the volume his friend spoke in.

"Yes Anakin. Though, we should plan before we attack." Obi-Wan stated, as Anakin angrily turned towards his brother.

"Plan? Plan? No… we don't have the time. We must…" Ahsoka quickly put her finger on Anakin's mouth, making the 'quiet' motion and making Anakin stop his rant.

"We do. Without a plan, we'll all die." Obi-Wan stated

Falcon walked towards the three, with a solemn face "Obi-Wan's right. Anakin, we can't do this without a detailed plan."

The owner of the Sky Lion calmed himself, before he spoke, "Fine then. What do you propose?"

"I'll tell ya on the way to Port Town. Guys, get your vehicles." Falcon instructed, as the Jedi seemed quick to do it.

Once everyone was strapped into their vehicles, and Obi-Wan had seen the grades of his vehicle, which were Body 'B', Boost 'D' and Grip 'A', all of them simultaneously hovered from the ground, and sped out of the garage, Blue Falcon leading the pack.

That was the chapter! Next chapter will take place about a few hours after this one, where Falcon will discuss his plan to the Jedi near Port Town. Hopefully this chapter was good, and if anyone wants to review, then do so, I'm happy to receive any.
