Well, there it is, Haruun Kal. Obi-Wan said out loud, as the three Jedi stared at the planet that was right in front of them.
This is going to fun, although I do have a bad feeling about this place. Padme closed her eyes and began to use the Force to locate ex-Master Windu.
I am with her, because it is going to be very hard to find him in all that jungle. Also, from what I understand, the people that came here, came to hide from the authorities. Anakin also stared out of the Viewport and saw the planet getting closer to them.
That is so true and another thing, we do have to be very careful of the waters on this planet. It is made of acid. Obi-Wan turned away from the viewport and looked straight at Anakin.
Great. Anakin looked at his friend, just before he began descending the ship closer to the planet.
Twenty minutes later, Anakin finally landed the ship in a space that ships have been landing at, for drops off for people, who wanted to get away from other people and even things.
Ok, everybody,this is it. So, here we go and have fun. Padme took a couple of breaths, before she hit the hatchway door.
Now, stay alert, because there are more Force Sensitive people here on this planet. Obi-Wan made sure that his lightsaber was clipped onto his utility belt.
Ok, I am ready. Are you ready, Padme? Anakin also made sure that his lightsaber was on his belt.
There was silence coming from Padme.
Um . . . Padme, are you ready? . . . What is it? Anakin turned to look at Padme and he saw that her eyes were closed.
He is here and I do sense the dark side in him. Padme used the Force to locate Windu.
It's good to know that he is here, but the bad side of all this is, he can sense us too. Anakin looked at Obi-Wan, who nodded in agreement about the fact that Windu could also sense them too.
I have thought about that. So, put this in your belts and it will repel the Force, so he will not sense us coming after him. Padme went over to a small trunk, opened it up and pulled out plants that look like twigs.
Both Anakin and Obi-Wan took a plant and put it into their utility belts. Once the plants were in place, the three Jedi left the ship. It was Padme, who took the lead in tracing Windu. Thirty minutes later, they came up to Windus camp.
You go that way, to the left Obi-Wan. Anakin, you go to the right and I will stay right here. Padme made up a plan on how they were going to be pushing Windu back to his camp site.
Both Anakin and Obi-Wan nodded, before they headed off in the direction Padme had given them.
You will not escape us this time, Windu. Padme saw Windu walk right into his camp.
Padme, what are you? . . . how come I did not . . . . Windu looked around the camp, to make sure that they were alone.
Sense me? Well, that is my little secret, in which I will not tell you. The reason why I am here is, to take you to prison, so that way, you can wait for your trial and sentencing. Padme stepped out of the shadows of the foliage.
There is only one way that you are going to take me in. Of course, you will not live long enough to do that. My Master will get me out of prison way before there is a trial too. Windu activated his lightsaber and came straight for Padme.
Thank goodness, Padme had remembered that Windu had created the Combat VII. She had even been studying that move and even practiced it too, but with remotes only, never with a person. This move is forbidden to be used by anyone, because it is so close to the Dark Side.
I really do not want to hurt you . . . your Master, so whoever he is. Padme back away very slowly from Windu, as he moved closer to her.
I will not tell you who my Master is. For now, it is I, who will make you pay. Windu said, right before he made his attack.
Padme was ready for his fist move, so she was able to leap and flip into the air. As she landed on the ground, she had her saber activated and was able to block Windus moves. The duel last for over thirty minutes and of course, they were tiring each other out and waiting for someone to make a mistake. Padme began backing away from him again, but it was this time, that she did not see a root of a plant. She tripped over it and fell down to the ground. Before Padme knew it, Windu was coming down onto her. It was then, that she raised her arm upwards, as she closed her eyes. She heard Windu let out a very painful scream, but she too, let out a gasp, as she felt a pain go right through her right side.
Padme! Obi-Wan, over here. Something happened to her. Anakin watched in very slow motion, as Windus lightsaber went right through Padmes right side.
Anakin ran over to Padme and he fell down to her side.
Ani, I . . . hurt . . . I hope . . . I got . . . him. . .. Padme was trying to breathe, as she grabbed onto Anakins arm.
Anakin! Oh my gods . . .. Obi-Wan came into the clearing and he saw Anakin sitting by the still figure.
We need to get her to the ship . . . what about him? Anakin looked over at the other body that was couple feet away from him.
Obi-Wan checked on Windu and found the man was still alive.
It was four hours later, when they arrived at the Temple, where Padme was taken to the medical bay. They also took Windu to the prison and he too was going to be staying in its medical bay, until he was well enough to be moved to a cell. Anakin stayed by Padmes side whenever he could and he just prayed that she will come to from a coma. He learned that when she fell down to the ground, her head did hit a rock. All Anakin and Obi-Wan could do now for Padme is stay with her and just pray for her and hope that she will come to.
They learned that Windu had been released from prison, and it was his Master, who got him out too. The only thing that the Jedi could do, is wait until Padme was well, so they could go and hunt down Windu and his Master.
