The soon to be Mrs.Sheliah Odoon walked down the eisle of a large building. Her wedding day had finally come. Her life long friend Pathrik would finally become her husband, to be with her for her entire life. She proceeded to the altar, the time had finally come for their vows, and to begin a new adventure, and raise their family...

Two years past. Shortly after the Odoon's where married, they moved to Bakura, the home of Sheliah's late grandmother who died shortly before the wedding. It was there that Sarah Amadale was born in 40 BBY. The couple finally decided to bring their family over to live in Naboo for more space. Sheliah held her new baby, Lin Astrostation (Stephanie Fear). She couldn't believe how far they had come. Now she had two daughters for her successors. Pathrik walked out and put his arms around her and gazed at their new baby. Something seemed wrong. He couldn't tell what but he sensed a dark future for him and his wife. But as he looked at their new daughter he felt comfort, that something good would come from his two children.

Four years now past. Sarah and Stephanie, now six and five years old, where asleep. Sheliah and Patrik made their way into their room to rest for the night. Sheliah layed down, but was uncomfortable for some reason. She got up and went to check on their children. The girls where fast asleep. Sheliah sighed in relief. She walked over to them and kissed their heads. They both woke up, having nightmares. Sheliah hugged them, then sang them a lullaby. Once her children where back to sleep, she moved back to her room and closed her eyes. All of a sudden Sarah and Stephanie heared muffled cries. Sarah quicky got up and looked out, seeing a mysterious man run to the door. She ran over to her parents and saw they were both dead. Sarah couldn't breathe. She edged over to Stephanie crying. Stephanie could tell what happened. Sarah started hearing a beeping noise. She grabbed Stephanie and a few of their belongings, then ran to a small ship that their family owned. Sarah set corrdinates to Coruscant where the rest of their family lived, hoping that they may still be alive to help them.

Two days later the girls sat down on a street. Their family was dead, all of them. They had no idea why, but they knew it was from the same man. Their faces where drenched with tears, but pushed them away, not wanting to show each other the pain they were in. "Well get through this..." Sarah began. "How?" Her sister questioned. Sarah saw a small apartment available. All she had to do to get it was sell their ship and look a little older. She grabbed her sister and ran, ready to set their father's dream alive.

Beginning of a Dream
Years had past once again. Sarah was by herself. She raised her sister with pride and was now a full grown adult. She became very smart after raising some money for her and her sister to gain some education. Now she lived in an apartment still on Coruscant, likewise her sister. She helped work at Von Vonwalker's Inn, helping run most every job it had to offer, and later running a cantina. She gained many friends over the years, as well as admirers. Her first boyfriend was Captain Dee, a soldier who she grew very close to, as well as his friend Commander Nightseeker to Stephanie. But both relationships where later broken up. The truth was, despite her few sweethearts, she felt young and wasen't ready for a relationship at the time. As hard as she tried to show it, she still had a few strong feelings, but some had strong feelings for her such as an old friend of hers, Varon Rancorneedler. Although Sarah only saw him as a friend, he still sought to be with her. Sarah knew it wasen't a very good time since the Clone Wars had begun. Although she didn't live in fear of it, she still wanted to make a change in it. Stephanie had met a man named SquadLeader Racer, who she grew closed to and dated for a while. After a few months, Racer proposed to her and finally started a family together. Sarah was excited. Even though she haden't found love yet, she was still very happy that after her family died, her sister could finally make it grow. Stephanie had four children, two adpoted named, at the time, Lin and Jessica. Her sons where named Marn and Jaller. Racer led a squad of marines, where Sarah saw opportunity to join her sister and help to win the war. Sadly, Racer later left Stephanie after their relationship wouldn't work in war times. As devasted as the girls where, they still moved on and helped with whatever they could.

Battle on Alderaan
Sarah and a group of marines including her sister sat in a gunship. They where traveling to Alderaan after a small outburst of droids attacked as a result of the Battle of Alderaan. "What's our plan of attack?" she started. "Attack." Sarah looked around to see who gave the clever remark. She rolled her eyes and looked at her sister. "You and I will stay at the palace bridge okay?"."Got it." Stephanie replied. Even though the first battle was outside of the planet's perimeter, this one was at Queen Organa's palace door. The Seperatist sought to find information from them to help corrupt the Republic. The gunship finally landed. The troops marched out, Sarah and Stephanie behind. They then rushed to the opening gate and watched as a squadrant of droids approached. Both girls pulled out their blasters and began to shoot them while the other troops ran through the other gates. The droids proceeded from a carrier ship, becoming small in number. Sarah shot the last droid. Something wasen't right. She slowly looked out, noticing a much larger dropship heading towards them. Sarah grabbed Stephanie and ducked as a bolt blew past them. Sarah got up behind cover and started shooting all she could, along with her sister. The droids pushed them back, but then pressed on towards the other troops, busy with their own fighting. Sarah ran with her sister towards the final gate, shooting every droid they could. They headed towards the rest of their party and began taking out everyone of them. Stephanie tossed her a bigger gun, grabbing herself a heavy weapon. Sarah looked down at her weapon, comparing it to the size of a gun one of her sister's old boyfriends, AlphaMarl Photoline, owned who was most likely the biggest fans of guns she knew. She saw Stephanie smile at the similarity in weapons. Sarah rolled her eyes again and set them on the droids. She began shooting them, until they began to decrease in number. After a long time of fighting, the droids finally retreated. Sarah and Stephanie sighed in relief and returned to wait for the next gunship to carry them home.

Perils Over Coruscant
Sarah rode in a small starship over Coruscant. A surprise attacked was issued by the Empire and was drawing in towards the planet. A legion of clones along with Sarah, Stephanie, and their squad were ordered to defend Coruscant against the oncoming threat. Sarah's task along with her sister and their group was to invade the head cruiser in the invasion. Starships that belonged to Sarah's taskforce flew in, surronding her back and sides. They drew in throughout a line of Seperatist ships, with their turrets pounding in the space around them, missing only by a short distance. "Shoot out the turrets and get to the cruiser!", Sarah heard a commander shout through the intercom. Twisting and turving, Sarah dodged flailing bolts as turrets and vulture droids proceeded to shoot at them, occasionally shotting down numerous targeting missles herself. Finally, they approached the hanger of the heavy cruiser that was in charge of the invasion. Quickly, all lasercannons from Sarah's group, as well as her own, locked on the cruiser's shield that protected it's hangar. After destroying the defenses, Sarah quickly landed inside of the hangar and jumped out, followed by her sister and the rest of their squad. "We made it in", Stephanie informed the legion's leader. As Stephanie continued her observations of the scenario, Sarah looked around for the door that led to the command post of the ship. "Let's get going before we get more company", Stephanie said too soon. Droids began piling in through all entrances and began to shoot towards them. Quickly, everyone aimed for their blasters and proceeded to take out the droids. B2 droids began to enter along with many droideka. Still, the squad led on and shot every last one of them. "I think that's it", Sarah said as Stephanie began breathing uneasily. "Good, we better get moving before more come" Steph said running towards one of the entrances. The squad followed down throughout a few halls till they arrived in the final one. "Okay, there are two options. The command post is to the right", Stephanie said, gesturing towards a long door, "but there is still some more droids in the next room ready to come on" she added pointing towards another door. "I'll help you in the command post, then I'll take a few men towards the droids", Sarah decided. They approached the door to the post and shot the lock. Swiftly, they leaped inside. A few droids that where functioning the controls turned around and began shooting as the squad blasted towards them. Once they took them out, they continued over to an FA-4 droid who was piloting the ship. Aftter relieving it of it's duties, Stephanie proceededd to pilot the ship, along with a few other men. Sarah gathered the rest of the squad and proceeded to where the remaining droids where at. As they entered the room, they where immediantly shot at by what seemed like hundreds of droids. Sarah ducked behind cover and quickly tried to shoot the most droids that she could. She noticed another corridor on the other side of the room. "Stay here and take out the droids, I'm going to check in the next room", she called back to the rest in her group. She ran across the room as fast as she could, taking out a few droids on the way. As she neared the door, her blaster was hit by one of the droids. Sarah starred at a hint of smoke coming out from it's side. She threw it on the ground and opened the door, surprisingly unlocked. As she went in, the door slammed behind her, locking her in. She scanned it's controls, but it wouldn't move. She turned and ignored it, proceeding to walk forward. It was a long, narrow room, and at the end appeared to be a stand. She stopped and quietly gasped as a dark cloaked man emerged from the shadows. "And why are you here alone?" he questioned with a confident smile. Sarah stepped back, prepared for whatever move he woul make. He began to approach her with his hands behind his back, then came closer to her then what she was comfortable with. "Who are you?" She asked, unaware of what his intentions where. "I am here on important business for the invasion. But you already knew that", he responded, pacing around her. She followed him with her eyes questioningly. "And what is you purpose here?" he asked in return. "To defend the Republic from scum like you", she answered roughly and more confident than he expected. He paused behind her and approached her even closer. "Now then, how do you expect to do that? After all your on MY ship. I wouldn't want to cause something as delicate as you any trouble", he answered right in her ear. She flashed a sarcastic smile and turned on her lightsaber the same time he activated his, red, obviously a sith. He swung it in a circular motion, coming at her at a fast pace. Sarah swung her lightsaber and ran towards him, then slammed their lightsabers together. Sarah was thrown back, but quickly sat up, blocking as her opponent crashed his saber in her direction. She rolled over and jumped on her feet, swinging again, this time barely missing his side. Using the force, the sith managed to throw her back over towards the stand he appear from. Sarah landed on her feet, running back towards him. She slid under him and thrust her saber from behind. The sith managed to block her attack again with his saber, and attempted to force chock her, but was too late as she batted her saber near his hands. The battle then revolved around the clashing of their lightsabers as they crossed all around the room, showing even skills. After a while, Sarah landed on the ground again after her attacker gave a powerful lunge. The sith walked towards her, with his red lightsaber trailing by his side. Once he reached her, he raised his saber in the air. Before he could strike however, Sarah swung her foot and kicked his shin. As he fell over, the rest of the squad finally made it in and stunned him. Sarah inhaled deeply and walked back to the hangar with the squad. The invasion was prevented and it was time to prepare for their next mission.

Defending Christophsis
Sarah was at a Republic base on Christophis. She walked through one of the doors, revealing a war room inside. Clones and a few Jedi gathered around a holoprojector, viewing a plan of attack. A screen next to them showed postionings around the base, as well as video feed. Sarah looked around and noticed Luke Docker, observing one of the screens. "What's happening?", Sarah asked, confused on the all of the excitement. "There are reports of an invasion." Luke continued to explain that a few dropships where reported to be approaching the base. "You might want to clear out, otherwise get ready." Sarah ran out of the room, then down the hall. She stopped at an armory, walking in to find herself surronded by various weapons. Sarah checked over at a section of blasters. She checked a few and compared their quality. After settling on one, she tucked it in her belt and began to leave the room, but paused when she came across a few blaster rifles. She quickly picked one off of a rack and concealed it in her cloak. She finally exited the room and headed back towards the war room. She watched a monitor as dropships where coming down one of the roads that led to the large, crystalline buildings of Christophis. The base was now not to far away from them. Sarah turned and walked back down the hall, this time heading towards the outside turrets. Clones began running around her, some going where she was, others heading to help defend the other areas of the base, probably take more like-risking jobs. A sudden burst of sound shook the entire base. Sarah began to fall over and held onto a rail. She ducked and covered her head as the cieling began to collapse. Sarah watched as shrapnel flew everywhere. Marl leaped through and put an arm around Sarah, leading her down the hall while using his other hand to support them against the wall. They finally made it out to an exit, the cieling now supporting itself again, bits and large pieces of metal all across the floor. "Thanks", Sarah said, still struggling to stand. "Don't mention it. Your lucky Marl the man of steel was here to rescue you though", Marl replied with a large grin on his face. Sarah gave him a scowl, then a quick pat on the back. She regained her balance and looked up at a walkway, turrets on both sides, aimed at the ground below. Clones attended each one, a General standing at the end, barking orders as the dropships began to come closer. Sarah ran down the walkway, then turned to a different section, running over towards one that was left unmanaged. The dropships where on all sides now, postioning in just the right places for the droids to attack in any area. The dropships stopped now, their doors lowering, revealing a vass amount of droids. B1 droids began to march out, scattering all around the edge of the base. Sarah started firing her turret at them, B2's starting to follow. Sarah clenched her teeth as their number hardly decreased. She could hear the other turrets blast around her, hardly suceeding as well. A large explosion sounded, the droids now gaining access to one of the doors, now infultrating from the inside. Sarah ran towards it, droids shooting at the clones who where managing the other turrets. She grabbed her blaster and began shooting at the droids, doing her best to take out the ones that where now nearing the remaining clones. Two of the clones stood behind her, firing at the droids as well. The others where still firing the turrets at the droids who haden't made it in yet. Sarah continued running towards the door, getting rid of the remaining droids on the walkway. She ran through the doorway, leaping through the remains of the cieling, then finally approached the door. Electric sparks flew from the controls, the door in ruins. Sarah looked over to where the droids must have gone. She ran down a few corriders, then up a flight of stairs. Remains of destroyed droids where scattered across the floor. A few clones stood at the end, putting away their blasters. Marl put his blaster up to his mouth and blew on it's end. "I see you beat me to it", Sarah said, putting her hands on her hips and shifting all of her weight on one of her legs. "Hey, you know what they say. The early clone gets the droid." Sarah rolled her eyes, then ran back out the door that the droids entered through, followed by the clones. Cannons blasted around them, taking out most of the dropships, causing droids to fly into the air from the blast, yelling from all directions. A line of dropships began to roll in from on and under the road Sarah stood on, followed by tanks. Groups of clones ran out down on the roads below them, firing at the dropships that where now approaching the base very closely. The tanks began firing at the base. Sarah pulled out her blaster rifle and starting running towards the dropships in front of her. "Where did that come from?", Luke said, running up beside her. "A girl has her ways", Sarah said, now firing at the dropship closest to them. Luke held out a blaster, shooting at it as well. Sarah slid across the ground and shot at the dropship from the side, the clones behind her shooting as well. The dropship broke down, the droids inside following. The other dropships behind the one they had defeat stopped, their doors falling down, allowing more droids to walk out, their blasters ready and pointed. The group continued up the path, the towering buildings around them rocking at the large impacts from the base's cannons and the droid's tanks. AT-TE's began to exit the base and attacked the seperatist vehicles. After a few dropships where taken out, as well as their droids, Sarah and her group made it to the tanks. The road split, leading off down towards one of the roads below. The front tank fired at a tower nearby, causing it to crash down, throwing Sarah back. The tank began to turn down the other road, followed by all the others. Sarah got back up and crouched next to the fallen tower. "What should we do?", Luke asked joining her. The other clones crouched next to them, firing their guns at the passing tanks. "We better follow those tanks before the rest of our friends get even more company." Luke nodded, the clones still firing at the tanks. One fired at them, causing them to all bend over, blowing back a few of the clones. Marl looked at his gun that he dropped, smoke emitting from it's side. Marl's silence told Sarah everything. "Don't cry over it", Sarah said, tossing her blaster rifle to him. He gave her a thumbs up, then aimed it at the tanks. Sarah pulled out her saber and ignited it. "Let's go", Luke said, shooting at the tanks while climbing over the tower. The rest joined him, then ran down the road, shooting at the tanks next to them. The base's cannons continued to fire at them, but even with the clone's on the field's help, it still wasen't enough. The assembly continued shooting at the tanks, Sarah jumping on top of a few, using her saber to open the tops and driving it through the droids inside.Sarah and her group ran back into the base,meeting up with a few clones in the war room. Jedi Master Mace Windu continued to elaborate plans of attack. Clones would have to gather and continue shooting the cannons, as well as a few other long distance weaponry. Someone would also be tasked with a new detonator and inplace it by the tanks, hopefully able to take them out. Sarah volunteered, as well as the rest of her previous group. Sarah pulled a bag over her shoulder, carefully placing the detonator in it. She ran out towards a hangar near the road containing the tanks. All of the remaining clones in the base, a few hundred, gathered behind her and her group. The door slowly opened, Sarah grabbing her saber back out as the tanks became visible again. Once the door fully opened, she ran out, bringing her saber against the sides of a few tanks. The many clones behind her began shooting at them, running along the road as cannons and blasters shot from the top of the base. Tanks exploded right in front of them, hardly missing them, still not delaying Sarah and her group. They finally made it towards the middle of the road, ready to end their mission. Sarah, Luke, and Marl ran up, leaving the other clones behind, who where now slowly backing away, still firing at the tanks. "If we don't make it...", Marl was cut off by Sarah's finger in his face. She pulled out the detonator and placed it on the ground. "I'll miss you the most", he said with a sarcastic tone. Sarah smiled, wishing Stephanie could be there. Luke and Marl helped her set it, only having a few moments to make it out. Once it was ready, Sarah activated it. The trio quickly leaped up and began running back towards the base. Time seemed to slow. Shrapnel from nearby tanks flew in their faces. Ticking played in Sarah's head. Explosions from cannons and tanks hit right next to them. Finally, the detonator went off, blowing them off of the ground. The tanks exploded, along with some of the road. The cannons stopped firing, the explosion ringing Sarah's ears. She finally fell on the ground, almost wanting to kiss it from actually being alive. Her head hurt, causing her to mummer slighty. It was completely silent for a moment, later interuppted by the clones cheering. Luke helped Sarah sit up as the clones began celebrating in front of them. Sarah stood up, giving a tired smile. She weakly scrambled back into the base, celebrating as well. It had been a long day, and if there was one thing she wanted, it was relief. She picked up a cup of non-alcoholic jawa juice, crashing into a couch facing a large window that took up most of the wall. She looked out at Christophsis' crystalline features, aqua color splashed across the ground, the sky a unique blend of reds and yellows. She tilted her head back on the couch. She wished Stephanie was here. Marl walked in, throwing his helmet on a table. "What a gentlemen", she said, turning her head back and taking a sip of her juice. "Yeah yeah", he said, plopping onto the couch, lifting his feet up on the table in front of them. "So what's up?", she said, holding her cup with both hands and tucking her feet under her. "What do you mean?", he said, his arms now on the top of the couch. "Well you wouldn't be in here if there wasen't something you had to tell me", she said, annoyed once again. "Oh yeah, we're going to Cloud City." Sarah's eyes widened. She had never been there before, but she always wanted to. "Yes!", Sarah said jumping in the air, finally happy about one of their missions. "Relax, we aren't going to get into too much trouble. Just gonna check on the base", he said, picking up a cup of ale. Sarah stuck her tongue out, walking towards the door. "Do we always go to bases? Why not a vacation?", she shouted back to him. "Call me when you end the war, we'll talk." Sarah laughed, exiting the room and headed towards her starfighter. Finally, she would get to go relax at one of the most beautiful places in the galaxy.

Troubles in Cloud City
Sarah walked out towards the hangar of the base, watching as a few clones carried crates into the gunship she would be riding to Cloud City. "Almost ready for departure, Ma'am", one of them called, stepping inside of it. Sarah hurried inside as well, crashing into one of the seats. This time, it would just be here and the pilot, consider the rest of the wieght that the ship could hold would be taken up by the crates. She nestled in the chair and wrapped a blanket around her. She leaned her head on the back of it, watching the sparkling scenery of Christophsis begin to shrink under them. She yawned, deciding to take a short nap. She rested her head against her shoulder, finally sleeping. The ship landed with a slight thud, waking Sarah up. She stretched her arms and wrapped her blanket, then tossed it over to the side. The door of the ship opened as two clones walked in and grabbed a few of the crates. Sarah got up and helped pick up a few of the last ones, helping one lift a very large one. The ship had landed on a platform next to a narrow walkway into a dome shaped building, the sky a mixture of light and dark oranges. She peered around and noticed a man standing by the door. She set the crate down, swiping dust off of her hands and watching whoever the man was. He had a saber at his side, most likely a Jedi. "Hello, I'm Frey Suun. You must be Ms.Amadale," he said, catching Sarah off guard that he knew her name. "Yes, it's nice to meet you," she said with a smile. "Glad you made it safely. I'm here to escort you", he said very friendly. She walked with him and the clones into the building, admiring the sun-colored sky. "So, how long is you mission here?", Sarah asked as they walked through a white hallway, windows on both sides. "I've only been here for a few days, but my mission is only to check around like yours. I'll be returning to the temple soon. How long will you be staying?", he asked in return. "Hopefully a day or two. Once everything is figured out, I'll have to get back into action", she said, a bit more depressed at the thought. "Well I hope you enjoy your stay then", Frey said with a laugh to his tone. They finally stopped at a door on the left. Frey stepped forward and opened the door. "This is where you will be staying. Someone should check on you tomorrow," Frey said, stepping to the side. "Thank you. I'll see you later", she said as a goodbye. He turned and walked back down the hall. Sarah walked into her room, the door shutting behind her. She had a small bed against the wall and a patio on the other side. The sky was now turning pale as night neared. Sarah walked over towards a switch and turned the lights off. She took off her boots and layed on her bed. She ate a small piece of flatbread then pulled her hair down. She stretched out on her bed and fell asleep. The next day, Sarah gathered with the rest of the people on her mission, including Marl, at a meeting hall. After a brief introduction on what they where doing, the crowd exited the room. Sarah walked over to Marl and tapped his shoulder. "Oh great, your here", he said, obviously sarcastic. "And you know it." The two went to their jobs, scanning the perimeter and viewing several stored boxes and crates. When the job was done, everyone continued to relax and spent the rest of their time in liesurement. "So we meet again", Sarah turned to see Frey standing behind her. "Oh, hello", she said, happy to have a new friend. He bent a little and clenched his head. "What's wrong?", she asked worried. "I thought I felt something...", he said, being to stand up straight. "I thought I felt something too." "I'm sure it's alright", he said with a reassuring smile. "So your force sensative?", he asked her as they began walking down one of the halls, wider than the one to Sarah's room, also allowing more light in. "Yes, I only recently recognized it though. I'm hoping to train my ability, but so far I'm much better with my saber." "Well maybe I can show you some pointers some time?", he suggested. Sarah was excited by the opportunity. As they walked down the hall telling each other of their accomplishments in their abilities, an odd ship landed on one of the bays. "Who's ship is that?", Sarah asked Frey, unfamiliar to it's model. "I'm not sure...", he repiled, worried as well. Frey opened the door to the bay, then walked out along with Sarah to the ship's toydarian pilot. "Ah, a Jedi. Maybe you could help me?", the pilot said, flying over to Frey. "Help with what exactly?" "I brought some cargo, weren't you expecting me?", he asked, a raspy tone in his voice, but expecting from a toydarian. "I didn't hear about any cargo coming in." "Must have been a mishap, why don't we get somebody to help you unload?", Sarah suggested. "Your colleauge is very thoughtful", the toydarian said, now with more courtesy. Frey flashed her a quick smile then signaled for a few clones to come over, the toydarian motioning with both hands towards the door he walked out from to them. "Glad that went okay. Still, we better be alert. Whatever we felt could result in danger", Frey said as he and Sarah walked back inside. Sarah nodded, then continued their conversation, getting into their training techniques. Sarah and Frey said goodbye and parted, both going off for their own time of liesure. Sarah went down to a pool that was recently installed, happy to be alone with peace and quiet. She swam on her back, closing her eyes as light poured in across her face. She wanted to enjoy her time before she left, and with what little excitement their was, she hoped she could fit it all in soon. She climbed back out and dried off, returning to her room now. She walked out onto the small patio, the sky now turning a black-grey color. She sat down and looked out at the clouds, the moons now shining so Sarah could see all of the buildings around her. Clones scouted around each one of them, scanning for intruders and/or signs of trouble. Sarah looked down, trying to calculate the distance that she was from the ground. It was hard with all of the clouds, and the idea of falling was frightfull. Still, the lights and nightsky where beautiful. Sarah looked at another tower, lights flashing from it's windows in one section. Most likely a casino, probably where Marl was at, joined by a few other marines that came. Frey must have been asleep by now, probably more worried about his mission then entertainment. Sarah wondered if they might get into an adventure during their time there. The next day was when Sarah had to head back to her next mission. She brushed through her hair, then ran out the door. As soon as she made it out, she bumped right into Marl. "Wow, slooow", he said moving both of his hands in front of him. "Must... get... to... ship", Sarah said, panting. "Actually, we've been delayed. Something wierd is going on appearantly." "What do you mean?", Sarah asked now regaining her breath. "Some clones where found dead. Everyone thinks someone was able to get in last night and did it." "Oh...", Sarah said, feeling very sorry. "Hey, wanna go grab some crumblebuns?", Marl suggested trying to get her mind off of the subject. Sarah smiled and raced Marl to one of the restaurants. After ordering a few crumblebuns, Sarah decided to check out what happened last night. She walked over to the scene, noticing what looked like burn marks. She walked over to the door that was closest to where the action took place, noticing the controls had a bit of a struggle, possibly being forced open. Still, it was almost impossible to decipher who had done it. She noticed the toydarian pilot she met yesterday slowly walking away from the room. "Hello", she called to him, causing him to jump surprised. "Oh hello", he said now turning to face her. "Your the girl from yesterday, no?" "Yes, actually..." "Look, I'm very busy, and I have to go soon. Pleasure meeting you", he said, now quickly flying away. Sarah chocked her head to the side, curious as to what had had him panicked. Considering he was toydarian, it was very hard to percieve anything from him. Still, he could have had something to do with what happened, most likely not the cause of it though. She stepped into a nearby room with two couches surronding a small glass table, as well as a few windows. She sat down on one of the couches, allowing herself to take a break. She began to sense something, this time stronger than earlier. She stood up and rushed out walked through the door. She was about to break into a sprint when her transmitter went off. She pulled it out, noticing a message from the lead commander for their mission. All marines and other personal where to attend a dinner with the baron administrator, Dominic Raynor. Sarah put her transmitter away then hurried back to her room. She picked out a dress to wear then made here way to the banquet hall where the dinner would be. A large crowd was flooding in through the door, causing Sarah to have slow progress trying to enter as well. She finally was able to squeeze through just as the crowd began to largen and swarm in. The room inside was long with a table to match, a window made up most of the wall on the opposite side of the door, and numerous decorations hung against the side walls. Sarah noticed Frey already sitting at the table and tried to make her way over towards him. Sarah had now had difficulty now as the crowd warped around her. Frey helped Sarah stand straight just as she was about to fall. "Thanks", she said, now regaining her balance. "Don't mention it. Right this way", Frey sad, now directing her towards the table. He pulled out the chair next to his for Sarah, then sat himself. The crowd now grew silent and quickly tried to find a seat. The baron walked through the door and walked down towards the seat at the end of the table. He stood in front of it, greeting all of the guests, then sat down as the meal was served. The courses where passed out, as well as various options for drinks. The pack of people in the hall laughed and enjoyed themselves. Sarah took a sip of Jawa juice, sensing something again as she set down her cup. "Do you feel it too?", she asked Frey as he shifted in his chair. He nodded, "It's worse than ever." Somebody shouted as a grey armored zabrak ran across one of the low hanging lights attached to the cieling. He pulled out a red double-sided lightsaber and activated it. The zabrak leaped of the light and plunged his saber down towards Frey, focusing his attention on him. Frey activated his blue saber and blocked the zabrak just as he crashed down near him. Frey pushed the zabrak back then pulled out a small, tied package. He tossed it to Sarah, "Go!", he shouted, charging back after the zabrak. The crowd of people began yelling and shouting, a group of clones trying to escort the baron out. Sarah ran with the wave of people, managing to get outside. She ran back to her room and locked the door. She quickly changed then pulled out her lightsaber. She walked back over towards the door, stopping to look at the packaged Frey gave her. She clentched it in her hand, then shoved it in her pocket. She activated her saber then rushed back towards the hall. It was now empty, a door on one of the sides walls now open though. She walked through it, the other side containing a walkway towards a large control room. Frey and the zabrak where now dueling on the other side, Frey jamming another door's controls then lurring the zabrak in to the next room. Sarah followed right behind them, finally catching up at the next room. Each wall was white, while a blue light in the center stuck out with glass cased around it. The zabrak thrust his saber into Frey's, throwing him onto the ground. Sarah slammed her saber into the zabrak's, causing him to jump back. The zabrak began walking towards her, causing her to step backwards. He leaped in the air, then twisted his saber in circular motions. He held his hand out, causing a window behind Sarah to shatter into pieces. He swung his lightsaber towards Sarah, cornering her into the wall. He force pushed her, causing her to fall out through the window. She grabbed onto a few pipes, then leaped back in through the window, crashing her saber back at him, forcing him to back up. She gave a powerful lunge, blowing the zabrak fully back. He got up and began running towards Sarah till Frey swiped his saber near the zabrak's feet then jumping back up. Sarah swiped her saber near the zabrak's chin then kicked him in the side. He fell back, flipping back, then running towards another room. "Nice job, but we better end this soon", Frey called as he and Sarah began running after their attacker. As Sarah entered the room, Frey pulled her over between two cramped walls. Numerous walls where stacked up on the sides of a hall, the zabrak most likely on the other side. "Do you have that bag I gave you?", Frey asked Sarah concerned. She pulled out the small package. "This? What is it anyway?", Sarah asked even more confused. "This is what he is after." Frey untied it and pulled out a small, triangular object, a strange blue glow eminating through it's wonderfully crafted carving. "It's a Jedi holocron, storing secret information. If this gets into the wrong hands, the fate of the Republic may grow nearer." Frey put the holocron back into the bag then placed it into Sarah's hand. "I'm trusting you to watch it." "Me?", Sarah asked, not sure if she could handle watching something so valuable. "Can I trust you?" Sarah nodded. "Good. Now let's go." The two walked down the hall, looking around at the clustered walls pre-cautiously. At the end was a series of controls to vents, branching out over a large, deep shaft. Sarah looked down at the huge pit, feeling nausious at the thought of falling. Sarah spun around as the zabrak twirled his lightsaber at her. She bent backwards, barely being missed. She grabbed her saber and threw it upwards towards his. Frey swung his lightsaber towards the zabrak's back, causing him to have to use both sides of his saber. Frey and Sarah backed him up across one of small passages to a set of controls. When they neared the edge, the zabrak kicked Sarah, causing her to fall on the ground. She looked down at the almost bottomless shaft, the zabrak now pointing his lightsaber at her. "Jedi scum. You are no match for a sith. Now, give me the holocron or else", the zabrak leaned his saber closer to Sarah now. Frey stepped back, not wanting to make an unneccissary move. He leaped forward and brought his saber in the zabrak's side, catching him off guard. He bent over, his eyes now growing wider and wider. With a last movement, the zabrak kicked Sarah, causing her to fall. "Frey!", she called, now sliding down the side of the shaft. Frey leaped off the platform, moving in her direction. He caught up to her and held her around the waist. She wrapped her arms around his neck as they grew closer and closer to the shaft's end. A small door opened at the bottom, Sarah and Frey falling through it. They fell through another series of shaft's till the finally reached the last door of a shute at the bottom of the building. Frey grabbed on to a small stand sticking out from the shute. The only thing below them now where the clouds. He pulled Sarah next to him on the stand. "Are you alright?" "Yeah, I'm okay", Sarah said, pulling out the holocron and handing it to him. He smiled relieved that their mission was a success. A gunship flew down near them, Marl inside. "Need a lift?", he shouted.

Another Story
The toydarian floated out through the bay door his ship was parked on as fast as he could. He finally made it over to his ship then opened the door, constantly complaining the whole time. "Hurry!", he called back. The zabrak ran out through the door behind him, hurrying towards the ship. Marl sat in a control room, supposed to monitor through the window in case of an intruder. He twirled around in his chair, glaring at his glove. A few beeps signaled from a tiny alarm on one of the boards in front of the window, meaning someone triggered the door. He stopped and looked down at it. He looked up to see a zabrak with a red bladed saber running across the walkway towards a ship, a toydarian trying to open the door to it. Marl pulled out a transmitter, signaling other clones on security to stop the on going action. The zabrak neared the ship now, turning to see clones run out the door, beginning to shoot at him. He grunted and twirled his saber in front of him, countering the blaster bolts. He walked towards them, getting closer as he took out a few clones with their own blasts. Marl peered at the scene, the zabrak obviously injured. He grabbed his blaster then ran out of the room, marching towards the bay. He scrambled out, noticing he was the last clone standing. The zabrak stood up straight, considering Marl now an easy target. "This might hurt a little", Marl said, aiming his rotary blaster at him, taking him out before he could notice what Marl was doing. He fell on the ground face first. Marl walked over towards the toydarian, pulling him against the door of the ship. "Okay I'll talk", the toydarian said, flinching and covering his face. Marl smiled, still said that he didn't get to interigate him though. "Your friends fell down the shaft, they might be at the bottom still." Marl dropped him, a few clones coming up and escorting him to a prison. "Any orders sir?", one of them asked Marl. "Get me a gunship", he said, clutching his blaster at his side.

Terror on Kamino
(I've been reading a lot.. so I thought of this) Sarah was riding a gunship to a secret base on Kamino to meet up with Stephanie and the rest of her squad. She stood by her company of two other clones, as well as another one piloting the ship. She peered out through his window and viewed the dark sky. A storm had just started,and a lot of thunder and lighting was sure to come with it. Thankfully they where near the base, so their trip wouldn't be delayed. A streak of lightening stroke next to the ship, causing it to teter a bit. A sudden thud that Sarah noticed followed. She looked around to see what caused it, also noticing something sticking out from a cargo hold. Cautiously, she approached it as the ship rocked back and forth. She grabbed one edge of it, and opened it's side to be thrown back by two hands that imerged from the inside. Two men jumped out and pulled blasters from their sides. The other clones quickly reacted, followed by Sarah and aimed for their weapons. One of the men stunned both clones, somehow from losing his ability to shoot them instead. Sarah quickly knocked one of the men with the side of her gun, causing him to fall over in pain. The other lunged at her, catching her off guard, and threw her to the ground. She fell over, a large blow hitting threw her skull. Her vision slowly started going white, and her body felll limp on the floor. All she could see was the scene that laid before her, with the pilot trying to aim for his gun and pilot the ship at the same time. One of the men threw a parachute to his partner, who then began pulling the straps around him, ignoring the pilot aiming at them. All Sarah could notice now was that she was being lifted by one of the men, and carried towards the door of the gunship, as the other one opened it. The pilot finally managed to shoot the man that was not handling Sarah, probably not wanting to risk harming her. The last man standing used Sarah as a kind of shield, then lunged through the door, holding Sarah by her mouth and torso. As they plummeted down towards the crashing waves, the storm continued to worsen and lightening flashed around them, continued by violent winds. All Sarah could make of her captuer was that he was a very rather slim man, yet had stronger arms then his partner. Still, she tried to focus on the fact that she may lose consciousness soon, not sure if it was from her dread of the disgusting man, the fact that his hand blocked off most oxygen, or the other fact that they were plummeting at a dangerous rate towards the even more dangerous waves of Kamino, followed by the storm. All of a sudden the man was panicked. The parachute wouldn't work. He fiddeled with the strings, but still it would not come loose. Sarah's eyes opened. Now wasen't the time to give up. Quickly she used the mans fear as an advantaged and caught him off guard as she tried kicking him away. Obviously the man forgot about the parachute and grabbed her again, this time using his full strength, and wrapped both of his arms around her sides, beginning to squeeze tightly so she wouldn't try it again. She let out a soft squeal, a rare show of weakness but couldn't be prevented at a time like this. They neared the waves, now much closer. Right before they hit the waves, Sarah grabbed out her blaster and knocked the man out with the side of her gun, then used his body to break her fall, closing her eyes at the sharp impact. She swam out of the water and quickly came back to her senses. She saw the man drifting around in the water, still unconscious, then stared at a beacon bobbing in the water. She grabbed the collar of the man's shirt and swarm over to it, throwing herself and him on top of it, trying to avoid the water. She pulled out a transmission screen and called to the base. After discussing the situation with her sister, she discovered that her pilot was safe and warned them of the peril that had just happened. Sarah gave her cooridinates and awaited for a search party to come for her. After a while, the man next to Sarah began to stir without her noticing. Sarah threw a piece of rubble across the water, then stared at her reflection. She pulled out her transmitter again and began searching it's functions to make sure it was working well. All of a sudden the man grabbed her and pulled a hidden knife to her neck. Before either of them could say a word, a blaster shot pierced his side. He fell over as a gunship flew by Sarah. It's door opened, revealing Stephanie waiting on the other side. Sarah jumped in and hugged her, noticing her friend Luke Docker. She sat beside him and Steph, as they exchanged stories of what had happened, laughing and smiling at each others jokes, such as puns on why two men were in Sarah's gunship. "Looks like you have two stalkers. You better get a boyfriend, or this is gonna keep happening", Steph teased with a smile. Sarah rolled her eyes at her sister's poor role of the "Love Doctor". The gunship finally landed, and the three exited to the base. An emergancy meeting was then inplaced, and Steph, along with Sarah, proceeded to the stage. The recent attack was considered to be led by the two men to sneak into the base to access information as well as the base's location. The girls began to address it as the first of few invasions and the base would soon need to bring up more cautions in case their theory was right. Sarah proceeded down the steps of the stage towards a hall. She caught up with Luke as another marine named Rax, who was accompanying him, stepped into another room. "Yesh, theres been a lot of excitement today", Sarah said. "Let's just hope your not so-secret admirer doesn't bring his friends", he replied with his usual calmed smile. Sarah gave a clumsy smile in return, feeling off balanced considering her also clumsy attempt on her first trip to the base. "I'll tell them I'm taken by one of you guys so you get all the attention this time" she said with a cheerful grin. Seeing as their wasen't much response, Luke turned to join Rax again to see how she was doing. Before he walked over one foot away, however, an alarm went off. Rax ran out of the room she was in, accompanied by a few other woman, who rushed to a safer area where they could see what was going on. Relieved that Rax was okay, Luke turned back to Sarah and rushed with her towards the leading squad members to also figure out what was going on. The base was being attacked again by what seemed to be friends of Sarah's previous adversaries. Sarah worried about Stephanie and began to leave the room to find her. Luke ran past her, stopping her for a second. "I have to find Steph, will you be okay?". "Rax is alright, but I'm not sure you should be alone, especially after what happened last time", he replied. "Last time my group was stunned, so that wasen't my fault. Still if that happened again to you, it might happen to me." Sarah knew it wouldn't happened, so she flashed him a generious smile and ran off down the hall with him. They proceeded down a corridor and checked through a few rooms. All of a sudden, more alarms sound, and a group of men came running down. Sarah recognized one as the other man on the gunship. She could see his gun was empty, so that explained his use of stuns. As Sarah was awe-struck, Luke pulled her into another hall next to them and began shooting at the intruders. Sarah snapped back to attention and joined Luke, taking down most of the men. The man that caught her interest ran off, being the last one standing. "That last one was one of the guys who snuck on my gunship. How did he get away?". "Must have taken down the guards escorting him from the gunship without being noticed. We better find Stephanie fast before they find her first", Luke said. They darted throughout the section of the base till they finally came to a catwalk where glass rooms where etched throughout it's sides. Luke ducked down motioning for Sarah to do the same. "Did you see her?". "Yes but theres more of those guys and their getting pretty close. We have to catch her and sneak out before they get over there." They began crawling over to Stephanie who was sitting by one of the glass doors, obviously aware of what was happening. Sarah wrapped an arm around her and began tellling her their options of escape. Stephanie finally decided to try to get back to where Rax and most likely most of the squad was at. The three ducked down and began pacing over the cat-walk. Sarah walked near a turn, when Luke and Steph pulled her back, a blaster shot flying past her and destoying a wall of glass into a million pieces next to them. The group got up and ran in a different direction as glass began to crash right behind them. After a series of twists and turns, Sarah paused. Luke and Steph did the same. "Come on their getting closer!", Luke whispered. "I know...", Sarah started. "You two keep going, I'll buy you some time." "But..." Steph stuttered. "I'll be fine, you two just get with the others okay?". Luke and Steph slightly nodded, Steph giving an additional hug. "Good Luck", Luke said, taking Steph down the hall. Sarah turned, noticing three attackers. She shoot at the last wall of glass standing by them. It crashed down, but only stopped them for a second before the began chasing after her again. As she turned to run, something seemed to grab her and she fell over, eyes closing. She starred at the hall as she saw Steph watching terrified. Luke grabbed her hand, with the same expression on his face, running away from the scene. Everything turned hazy until Sarah couldn't see anything at all.

Rescue From the Seperatist Ship
Sarah couldn't concentrate. It was black and warm. She saw some light, but it wasen't worth straining to view. She felt comfortable, whatever was happening. She heard slight mummering but she didn't want to pay attention. All of a sudden, she began to wake up, if she was even sleeping. A light beamed down on her face. She looked up to see that her hands where bound behind her as she was sitting on a stand in a type of sell. Seperatist she guessed. Whatever was holding her hands, it was tight, and couldn't be opened by herself. She layed her head against the wall with a painful expression. This time she was caught. GOOD. She decided to just sit there and wait for something to happen. All she could think of was how long till she was killed. Or rescued. Still she didn't understand why she was still alive. She heard rapid footsteps follow outside the door. Someone began trickng the lock, and it began to open. Outside was a group of clones. She starred excited to see them coming to her rescue. She recognized two of them as Marl (Stephanie's boyfriend) and a friend of theres named Turbo. Still, Sarah couldn't tell who the third was that was opening the door. "Got it", he called as the door fully opened. Sarah's expression dropped. It was Luke. Once again all of her friends got to see another addition of her embarrasement. Them having to help her made her feel even more nauseous. Trying to get her mind off of it, she called out ,"What took you so long?". "Obviously tracking you is hard", Turbo called back. "Not to mention how easy it is for you to get lost", Luke added. Sarah rolled her eyes, not feeling as hidden as they must have considering they were wearing helmets to shield their emotions. Marl ran in and quickly disabled her cuffs. "Does this give me more points to the family?", he asked, indicating his relationship to her sister. "You can't touch her, but you can pop the question now", she said indicating it too, as well as rewarding him. She jumped on her feet and ran out the door. "Luckily we're not too far from the ship so this shouldn't take too long" Turbo said noticing her embarrassment. "After you heroes", she said, motioning down the hall. The group managed to run down the hall unnoticed. Sarah noted a few guards layed on the ground, most likely the doing of the guys. Suddenly, blaster bolts began to blow near them as they came to the hangar. Sarah ducked behind her rescuers as they shot at the seperatists that tried to prevent their escape. Quickly they huddled into the ship and took off. Sarah dropped into a chair winded. "Thanks guys. But maybe next time you could, I don't know, get rid of ALL the seperatists?". "Don't worry, next time we'll take over the Empire for yah" Marl responded. Sarah opened her eyes really wide at him jokingly. "Oh yes you will", she responded. Luke walked over to the seat next to her and sat down. "Are you alright?", he said, pointing out a little blood on her forehead. "its fine, probably from that glass" she said with a smile. "Good. But what did I tell you about being alone?" "Don't worry I learned my lesson", she said, wiping away the blood with a cloth. "Well I don't want anything like this happening again. Promise you'll be more careful next time?". "Promise", Sarah said with a laugh. She was glad she had so many friends with concern. "Say, why didn't they just kill me in the first place?" Sarah questioned. "They might have been looking for locations of the other bases, considering it would be harder to sneak in through the gunships after their last try", Turbo responded. Sarah thought about his reply for a second with a frown. The other bases would have to be more careful and under high maintenence for a while till the ordeal was settled. Still, she was thankful that she was alive at all. The ship finally approached the base on Kamino again where Sarah met up with Steph. She hugged her and told her what all happened. After a long conversation and a brief check to make sure Sarah was okay, Steph approached a gunship. "Well I have to go on a mission to Tatooine. Are you sure you'll be okay?". "Yeah, I'll just head back to Coruscant and wait for you. See you then", Sarah said with a smile. They both waved goodbye and headed off to their destination.

Calling Home
Sarah was at a training room that she designed. She blasted a few training post then rolled over to more. She then ran to them shooting each of them, then pulling out her new saber and cut a few in half. She sat down, wiping sweat off her forehead and drank some imported blue milk, a special gift Steph had given her. She hovered the glass a few centimeters above her hand. She had discovered she was a bit force sensitive a long time ago but it was only known to her and her sister. It wasen't enough to show the Jedi council and she was surely too old to become a Jedi anyway. However, it would still prove useful to her in battle. She hopped in a taxi ship and went home. She layed down on a couch and stared outside. She had come very far from when she lost her parents. She gazed at the buildings that reminded her of her old home. She wondered what it would be like if they where still here... Sarah's train of thought was interupted by a call from a supreme adress. She opened her hologram and was shocked by the sight of the Chancellor himself. "I...", she stuttered. "I wasen't expecting a call from you sir, I'm sorry..". "I understand Ms.Amadale, I have very exciting news for you". Sarah began to ponder what the Chancellor meant. "It seems", he began again, "You were selected in the voting of Bakura's govenor. I was asked personally to inform you that you have won the voting and are now promoted as the Govenor of Bakura. Congratulations!" Sarah was shocked. She couldn't believe what she just heard. Maybe she was dreaming... "We have made preparations for your arrival home, and wish you the best of luck! You will be informed of your duties and..." The Chancellor's voice trailed off as Sarah thought of what her new future would be like. She snapped back to attention when he was finished. "Thank you Chancellor for all of your help, I'm looking forward to sucess to my home in these harsh times", Sarah replied with a smile. The message then ended. Sarah layed back down. She just couldn't believe it. She would return to her first home, but rule it this time? Sarah grew more and more excited. She then started to get tired... She yawned and went to her room. Her eyes began to flutter closed. She finally shut them and couldn't wait for the excitement ahead.

Battle of Bakura
Sarah opened her eyes. She sat in a shelter and peered outside a window. She was going to become Govenor till the seperatist invaded the planet. Her home was in peril. Luckily, A few Jedi arrived to help fight back the evil forces led by Generial Grievous. She watched the battle down below, droids where fighting a group of clone troopers. All of a sudden, Sarah's heart leaped when she saw Grievous himself run towards the clones. "Ms.Amadale we have to go", she heard one of the guards say. She quickly proceeded to another room hidden from sight, where she could still view the battle from a platform. Thankfully it was out of reach. Sarah's heart pounded as the battle raged on. After waiting for a long time, the battle was over. Sarah had no idea what had happened. Two of her childhood heroes, Jedi masters Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi entered the room. She was then informed that a traitor on Bakura allowed Grievous to kill the Ruling Synod that existed. Sarah was devestated. She knew that she had to step up for her planet now and replace all the fallen heroes of the Ruling Synod. Bakura needed a ruler now more than ever.

Mystery of the Bakuran National Symphony
Sarah was arranging flowers in a garden outside of a meeting hall. In the evening, Bakura's most talented band, the Bakuran National Symphony, would be playing in the hall for a charity fund. Also, Sarah would be seeing Stephanie for the first time since she became Govenor. After being satisified with her handiwork, Sarah sat down and enjoyed the colorful flowers and towering trees. The leaves fell with a beatiful dark green tint. After enjoying the fruits of her labor, Sarah continued to the hall to fix decorations. The time had finally come for the symphony to play. Sarah sat at a reserved balcony above all the others, wearing a white Bakuran official dress.

Stephanie walked through the door to the balcony with Luke Docker and Marl, as well as a few other marines. Sarah ran over to Stephanie and hugged her, regardless of how unprofessional it was. Sarah directed her guests over to their seats to await for the event to begin. Sarah walked down a staircase and walked down towards the stage where the symphony would play, thunderous applause following. After a brief welcoming, Sarah revealed a specially crafted box containing all the donations for the fund.

After placing it on a stand, Sarah introduced the symphony, then continued off the stage back towards the balcony. She sat back down next to Stephanie and excitedly waited for the opening song. Before the first note was played, the lights switched off, leaving the room in total darkness. Loud whispers scattered amoung the room, leaving Sarah and Stephanie panicking. After a short while, the lights flashed back on. "Is everyone alright?", Luke called. "We're okay", Sarah responded, curious to what happened. Sarah pullled Stephanie away from Marl, who we're discussing what had happened, and walked back towards the stage, followed by the marines. "Yo dawgs, duh green was tooken, bro."Marl said. The crowd gasped and various whispers began once again.

Sarah ran back on stage and grabbed the microphone, "Everyone, everything is alright, please remain calm. There was a slight mishap, but the symphony will continue. Thank you all for coming", she said, hoping to reassure everyone. "What do we do now?", Stephanie asked her as she walked off the stage. "We solve the case", Sarah said, walking back to the balcony as the symphony began. As wonderful as the music was, Sarah still couldn't stop thinking about the donations, if they were really stolen, and how to figure out who did it.

After the closing song, Sarah wished all of her guests a good night, then proceeded towards back stage. "What now?", Stephanie said as she walked alongside Sarah while the crowd exited the building. "First off, a hypothesis. If we're going to crack this case, we're going to need to use the right thinking. Somebody would have needed an operative if they wanted to come here for just any robbery. Any clues would help."

Stephanie stepped near a dented part in the floor, catching Sarah's interest. Sarah got down on her knees, observing the small incision. "Take a look at this", Sarah said as Stephanie bended over, curious as to what caused it. "It looks like one of the instruments fell here", Stephanie replied. The stage was rarely used while heavy objects, so it would make sense that the dent was caused by one of the instruments used earlier. Sarah recalled one of the players in the symphony using a Chin-harp, which had the perfect shape and weight to create the dent. Although it may have seemed like not much, it still showed a lazy job at handling the instrument. Sarah walked over towards the stand that held the donations box back on the stage where only the marines remainded, scanning the hall for whoever may have caused the trouble. Sarah sat down and touched a small, yet noticeable scratch on the ground near the stand.

Another instrument called the chidinkalu that was used by the symphony had a long, pointed end which could have easily created the mark. Sarah quickly glanced a dark figure pace near a door. Sarah ran back stage where Stephanie was, still searching for more clues. "Stephanie, we have to go. I think we're not alone." "What do you mean?", Stephanie questioned. "I saw someone, but I'm not sure who. They may be one of the people who stole the donations."

"One of them?", Stephanie asked wide-eyed. "Marks on floor such as that dent and a scratch near the stand resemble some of the instruments used in the symphony earlier." "The symphony are a group of theives?!" "Maybe not. A few of them may have been, though. We have to hurry. They might find us before we find them." With that, the girls went off to a transport with the rest of the marines who came. "Did you guys find anything?", Luke asked them. "We found a dent back stage, and a scratch by the stand that might have been caused by the instruments. Considering the instruments where used behind the stand, it was very odd for a scratch to be near the stand from one of them. Is it possible that some of the players were the theives?", Sarah asked.

"Hm... it's a good theory, and the evidence does show it. It's worth a look." Sarah nodded then sat back, still thinking who would have done it. Stephanie and the marines would be staying a few days as the charity fund continued. When the transport reached their destination, Sarah directed the marines to their rooms at a large hotel. Once everyone found their rooms, Sarah brought Stephanie to where she lived and where she would be staying for the night. "So what are we doing tomorow?", Stephanie said as she planted into a bed next to Sarah's. "We are touring around Bakura and helping with the charity fund."

"Well Inspector Govenor, ready for an adventure?" "Suuure, but remember, we have to be careful." "Yes, we're being watched", Stephanie said, plopping a piece of Namana, a common fruit of Bakura, into her mouth. "Steph, those were specially preserved and delivered!" "Yes, delivered to feed my big stomach!", Stephanie laughed, eating two more. Sarah rolled her eyes at her sister's familiar humor. She got under the covers of her own bed and laid her head on a few pillows. "Goodnight Steph."

"Goodnight Sarah... and watch your back..." Stephanie said with her most menacing voice. Sarah threw a pillow at her with her teeth clenched, causing them to both laugh. Sarah woke up, hearing a noise. "Steph", she whispered, "Wake up!" "What is it?" Stephanie asked with half closed eyes. "I heard something. I think theirs someone here." "Someone other than your millions of butlers? Maybe it's the watchers." "This is serious Steph, somethings..." Sarah was cut off by footsteps near the door. Steph quickly got out of bed and followed Sarah towards the door.

Sarah held the bottom of her night-gown with one hand and held the doorknob with the other. "Sure go towards the possible murderer", Steph said annoyed. Sarah placed a finger to her mouth, then quietly opened the door. Sarah and Stephanie stuck their heads out and looked for anything suspicious. More footsteps came, closer this time. Sarah and Stephanie quietly rushed towards another room, then hid behind a couch. Sarah placed a hang on Stephanies mouth as a masked man walked through the room, peering through all the doors. Quickly, Stephanie pulled out a transmiter and contacted the marines.

As they waited, Sarah grabbed Stephanie's hand and walked over to a hidden room where they probably wouldn't be spotted. "What now?", Stephanie asked. "Well we have to wait for the marines to get here. Till then, we should stay here." Stephanie gave a questioning look, then rushed out the door. Sarah chased after her, both stopping as the masked man stood right in front of them. Sarah grabbed Stephanie's shoulders as he began to pull out what looked like a small version of a sniper. The girls ran around a corner, trying to run back to the room they where just in. After approaching the door, Sarah tripped.

The man finally caught up to them, fully pulling out his gun. As he began to aim it at the girls, Luke tackled him onto the ground. Marl soon entered the room, and began to shoot at him. Stephanie ran over to Marl and hugged him. Luke walked over and helped Sarah up. "Are you alright ma'am?", he asked. Before Sarah could answer, the masked man pulled out a blowgun, shooting a dart at her neck. Marl quickly shot at him again, this time ending him. Sarah fell over, fainting. She woke back up on her bed, Stephanie sitting at the end. "What happened?", Sarah asked.

"Don't worry, your fine. Your lucky those guys came when they did." "Why does this always happene to me?", Sarah asked throwing her head on a pillow and staring at the ceiling. "See, that's why I have a boyfriend", Stephanie said knowingly. Sarah starred back at her. "Now's not the time to be unhelpful." "Well that didn't sound lady like", Stephanie said with a wide smile. "Ugh", Sarah said, "Your right, your right. Still, we better head to the tour or we'll be late." "In that condition? Your staying right here missy." "But what about you?" "Don't worry I'll just take Marl. Have some time together and he'll protect me", Stephanie said happily. "Okay. I guess I'll just stay here. Have fun, okay?"

"I will!", she said as she walked towards the door, Luke standing on the other side,"By the way, I'm leaving Luke and the others to keep and eye out over here. They're not as cool as me, but their just about as fun", she said placing an elbow on Luke's shoulder. "Bye!" she called. Sarah smiled and waved as Marl and Steph walked together outside. Sarah got up and walked out towards a balcony. Luke walked out along with another marine called FieldMarine Cold. "Everything alright?", Cold asked. "I guess so. I just wish I could have gone with Stephanie for our tour." "With this view, I'm sure it makes up for it", Luke commented. Sarah smiled, looking at the Namana trees and tall moutains where the sun had just peaked over. Still, she couldn't wait to figure out what happened to the donations.

Stephanie finally came back from her tour and her and Sarah went back to the hall where the symphony played. Sarah was on the virge of uncovering who stole the donations and attempted to kill her. Sarah ran over the stand that held the donations and began to scan it. She put her ear to it and tapped it's side. "What are you doing?", Stephanie asked. Sarah tapped it's corner and the stand's top turned, revealing the donation box. "That!", Sarah said with excitement. "The donations! They were there the whole time?" "Yep. The group who did this didn't have an easy way to steal it, so they tricked the stand. Their goal wasen't to steal it however, but to arise attention to it instead of themselves. Their real intention was to kill me, probably a group of bounty hunters. Still, they didn't hide their evidence with their lazy manatagement of the instruments.

Two of them pretended to play in the symphony, while the third hide in our balcony, trying to lay out their plan there. However, with all of the marines, he was probably scared off and proceeded to their next plan by hiding the donations. A fourth one must have turned off the lights. The girls heard clapping in the distance. A group of four men walked out from the balcony closets to them. One walked out and front, the same man who had attacked them last night. "I thought he died", Steph whispered. "We think everyone dies, now shush we're being canned", Sarah said, drawing her attention back to him. "Bravo, Govenor, you seemed to have figured out our plan. Such a shame no one else will find out", he said, about to pull out a gun. The group was an organized assassination team, formed after the failer of Aurra Sing's and Boba Fett's arrangements. "We'll see about that", Sarah said, pulling out her own gun and shooting at him, stunning him. The other three pulled out their own guns, but where unable to take action as the marines walked in and arrested them. Sarah and Stephanie smiled and high fived at another case solved.

Discovering the Force


Sarah served as Govenor for the rest of her term, but then continued work with the marines. Sarah went to Kashyyk to train her power with the force. She still had a rough time using it, and decided to try to unlock it, as well as train her hand with a lightsaber. She went into an open area and grabbed her lightsaber out. She concentrated, trying to levitate whatever she could. See looked down to see that she was levitating a little ways above the ground. She dropped back down and sat down on the ground, concentraing harder on her progress so far and the power she had. She started to think about Steph and her friends. Although it was an effective one, she couldn't understand the Jedi way. They were self-less, yet then again, blocked out all attachements. Their was so much more that she had, like love and very strong motivtion. As she continued to try to discover her true force potential, their was a disturbance in the bushes behind her. Stephanie leaped out and jumped on her. Of course she had to bring HER out here. Not only was Sarah her to train, but she joined Steph and the marines out on a mission. "How yah doing?" "Well I was doing great. Then you showed up", Sarah said annoyed. "Aw that's too bad. Guess you'll never be as good as me." She said pointing out the fact that she had better luck with the force. She held out her hand to a rock and hovered it over towards Sarah. Sarah looked unimpressed. She held out a hand to a large rock, then levitated it a way above the ground. Stephanie starred in awe for a while, then fell over on her back. "Wow...", she drifted off. Sarah gave a successful smile then layed on the ground next to her. She picked up a handful of grass, then dumped it on her face. "Hey!", she yelled then jumped on top of her. The girls began rolling and laughing, occasionally stopping to throw grass at each other. They paused after a while and watched clouds drift by. "Hey, why don't we walk down to the beach?", Sarah suggested. "Oh, and Almighty Force controller, your carrying me there." Stephanie lifted Sarah a little ways above the ground. Giving an unimpressed expression, Sarah lifted Stephanie a little higher. "Yay we can fly!", Stephanie said trying to wave her arms and hold Sarah at the same time. Sarah dropped her and laughed as she fell witth her. They then walked over to the beach, jumping on each other's backs the whole time. "Yay, more things to throw at each other", Stephanie said, grabbing a handful of sand." "Oh check this out", Sarah said, using the force to float a ball of sand towards Steph. Once it reached her face, Sarah clenched it tighter, making it explode on her. Sarah laughed as Steph winced once her face was a mess. They sat down and watched the sun set. "Come with me", Sarah said, grabbing Stephanie's hand and running down the beach. Finally they arrived at a beautiful spot, where Marl waited with a romantic dinner for two. Stephanie ran up and hugged him. Sarah smiled as they embraced. Luke came up exhausted. "Uh... hey, you look... great", Sarah said with a reassuring smile. "Sure... where have you been?", he said looking about ready to pass out. "Training. Here have some water", Sarah said, offering Luke some water she brought on her trip. "Thanks", he said accepting her offer greatfully. "At least you didn't drag that fancy dinner all the way down here by yourself", he said, starting to gain color to his face. "Sounds like Marl", Sarah said laughing. "Well I better head back. Rax just came and I wanted to say hi", Luke said. Sarah looked back at Marl and Steph laughing and eating. A lot of her friends where happy, having a relationship. As special as so many where to her, Sarah still didn't enjoy that same company. Luke patted her on the shoulder. She gave him a smile in return, then he walked back to the base. Sarah sat down on the sand, starring at stars that where now emerging. After heaving a sigh, she layed down on her back, making up her own constellations. Steph walked over to her, then planted onto the sand. Sarah smiled and hugged her. She was still happy the way things were. "I'm tired. Will you drag me back?", Stephanie said yawning. Sarah gave her an annoyed frown then began dragging her across the sand. Stephanie later got up and they raced back to the base. Sarah walked to the room where she would be staying, then walked out onto the balcony. She heard a knock on the door, opening as Luke walked in. "Hey, I'm not interuppting you am I?" "Nah, just sitting, I needed some company", Sarah said with a smile. Luke walked out and sat in a chair beside the one she was in. "It's been a while hasen't it? I was beginning to misss my turkey", he said, using one of their favorite nick names for her. "I missed you too Turkeymaster", she said with a laugh. He gave her a smile, which she returned. Suddenly, Stephanie and Marl walked out onto he balcony next to them. "I promise you, one of these days their going to devour each other", Sarah said, causing her and Luke to laugh. Sarah tried making a hush sound as she continued to giggle. "So what have you been up to?" Sarah asked. "Well I've just been on a lot of missions. Hanging out with Rax and stuff. How about you?" "Oh the usual, getting out of my Governorship, saving the universe, caring for Stephanie." Luke nodded with his familiar smile again. Kashyyyk's sun had finally set, a warm breeze blowing by. The trees began to rustle, giving off a sweet scent. "Well I better head out. Nice seeing you again without having to rescue you", Luke said as he stood up to leave. "Don't worry I think we're done with that", Sarah said laughing. "Goodnight", she quickly added. "Night." Sarah curled up in her bed. She had a long day and couldn't wait to get some rest. Stephanie walked in and jumped on her again. "Stop doing that", Sarah tried to say without shouting. Stephanie laughed and got under the covers next to her. Sarah ignored her and finally fell asleep.

Mission to Felucia
Sarah and Stephanie where off to Felucia. After making sure it was safe on Kashyyyk, they set off to their next mission. Their had been a raid on one of the bases their. Once their gunship finally landed, Sarah jumped out, now confident with her saber-skills, and drew out her lightsaber. Droids where coming in from the west, south, and east hangars. Sarah and Stephanie ran through the north entrance and hit the droids head on. Both using their lightsabers, the sisters clashed and sliced every clanker in their sight. Use combined skills, they where able to dart and leap past some, then continue their full out destruction of every piece of metal. The rest of the marines had finally come, following the droids from all sides, and proceeded to shoot them as Stephanie and Sarah continued their own work. "Sarah, theres apparantly a couple sith that made it to the top, but we're not sure who." Let's go then!", Sarah yelled, fighting her way towards a clear area where they could access a way to the top. Swinging their lightsabers in mixed motions, the girls finally made it towards a flight of stairs. They started running up them, till they finally reached the top. Cautiously, they walked down a hallway, where they found a few destroyed droid remains. Sarah kicked one's head, curious as to what had happened. As they finally walked into a room, Sarah was shocked to find Asajj Ventress force chocking Luke. "Luke!", Sarah cried out, sending a wave of the force in Ventress' direction, causing her to fall over, dropping Luke from her grip. Stephanie ran over and leaped in the air, crashing her lightsaber into Asajj's. Sarah ran over to Luke and helped him up, glad that he was okay. Sarah was surprised to also see Count Dooku himself in the room. "It appears we have more guests", he said activating his lightsaber. "The pleasure's all mine", Sarah said activating her's as well and charging after him. She slammed her saber into his, beginning to duel him as Luke got up and assisted Stephanie with Ventress. Luke and Steph both clashed their sabers at one of Ventress', hurling all their weight on their sabers to knock each other over. Sarah continued to swing her saber towards Dooku, being countered each time. Sarah had never battled a sith lord before, and hoped it wouldn't be her last any way. She blocked Dooku as he began to wield his saber towards her this time. She slipped under him, beginning to attack from his back, just as he was able to turn around and block once again. Luke and Stephanie finally gained the upper hand over Asajj and sent her fleeing towards a catwalk. After a while of battling himself, Dooku retreated through the same way Asajj had. Sarah chased him out on the catwalk. He held his saber out in front of him. Sarah took a step back, prepared to attack just like she had fighting her first sith. Dooku held out his hand instead, causing her to rise as he began to force choke her. Sarah flong her saber at him, barely missing, yet caused him to drop her. She fell and hit her head hard on the catwalk, sure to leave a bruise. Ignoring it, she got back up and hurled out as much strength she could as she used the force to knock Dooku over the catwalk. He fell onto the next floor, obviously hurt, but not enough to stop him as he fled to a ship with Ventress. Sarah sat on the catwalk, exhausted. Luke and Stephanie ran over. "And I thought you where tired when Marl made you carry his dinner", Sarah said to Luke. "Well, you still saved me this time. Thanks." He smiled, happy she was okay, then held her by the side, as Stephanie held her by the other. The three walked back to their gunships, and finally went back home after their mission suceeded.

Trandoshan Games
Sarah rubbed her head with a towel, slowly walking towards a bay. Previously, a droid sighting was reported, Sarah now being issued to join a group of marines to go and and examine the area. She pulled her blaster out, meeting the marines led by their leader Vasco, a well developed marine in hopes to develop his squad in the same manner. After a brief check in supplies and positionings, they set out into the jungles of Felucia, large vegitations of blue and pink plants masking the threatening creatures ahead. Chirps and sqwuaks sounded all around them, the animals as foriegn to them as the new terrain. After leading down their own man-made path for some time, plants twitched followed by cracks to the side. The marines quickly pointed their blasters in the direction, Sarah peering overhead.

"You guys keep going, I'll see what it is", she said now causiously scanning for anything nearby. "Be careful", Vas said, Sarah taking it as clearance to seperate from the group. She crouched down, slowly walking and checking to make sure there was nothing behind her. Sarah stood in a clearing, the marines hopefully not to far away. She turned as fungus began to rustle on her left, aiming her blaster by a force of habit. She pulled it back, seeing nothing in the way, still remaining cautious. Something didn't seem right.... Before she could pull up her senses she fell over, something tanged around her.

She finally discovered herself trapped in a stun net before the net activated an alarming shock, causing her to lose her senses once again. She woke back up, felling a slight hum below her. She was in a ship, a cage as well, the door above her as footsteps walked across it. She grabbed onto the circular gaps in the door, fumbling with it to see if she could get it unloose. It was no use though. She was trapped in a trandoshan freighter, probably being transported to her death. Sarah knew their hunting instincts, her captivity a sign of a new trophy. She paused and listened as two trandoshans stopped next to her cell.

"Looks like we'll get to Wasskah soon", one said, his tongue slurring in the deceptive serpent-like tone all Trandos used. "The sooner we get rid of this load, the better. We should have had more time to catch game." Sarah sat down, ignoring the rest of the conversation. Wasskah was a Trandoshan moon where they hunted. For sport. To make things worse, she would be a part of their killing party, and only for the fun of it. Still, survival was her biggest issue and one she would focus on above all others. Sarah panicked and leaned against a wall as the ship finally stopped. Before Sarah could react, the panel below her opened causing her to fall on the beach below.

She looked up, quickly taking in her surrondings before the Trandoshans followed and killed her. She was on an island, the salty taste from the water staining her mouth almost instantly. On the other side led into a deep forest of trees, perfect for her to hide in, even though she wasen't the best of climbers. She looked back up at the freighter ship, two figures falling out a distance a way from her. The trandoshans would be on them at any moment. She ran as fast as she could into the deep foliage ahead nonstop until she came across thicker trees from the one near the beach. With no hesitations, she climbed as fast as she could, stopping at a decent branch feet above the ground but not skinny so much that it couldn't hold her.

She could see the beach from the height, the other two captives now gone as well as the freighter. The hunting party would be on her later. She looked back at the sky hardly remembering to even assume what time it was. It was now getting dark, so the Trandoshans wouldn't hunt till the sun came back up. Still, sleeping would be an issue. She pulled a few vines hanging directly above her and wrapped them around herself and the branch.

Tomorrow was the day to worry, but for now she would have to focus on getting her rest. By the next day, Sarah had to assemble all of her training skills to thrive and camp out while she waited for her attackers to come and hunt for her and her fellow prisioners. She gathered a few leaves and rubbed a few stones she found together till a fire began to spark. Once the leaves began to burn, Sarah quickly raised a few nuts attached to the trees over them to roast. After the leaves shriveled up to there edges, Sarah tossed them off the tree and chewed on a few of the nuts. Although the intention of the island she was on was for an area to kill innocent people for sport, it was bountiful in supplies for survival.

Sarah had made a neat canopy of leaves to sheild herself from the sun as well as hide her from view of those around. If she made a fire, the smoke would be too high for anyone to recongnize if they where from a distance or where really close to the point where it would just be directly above them. Still, the mixture of smoke and the dense air was breathable. Sarah layed back against the trunk of the tree she was on, proud of her success so far. She had almost forgotten the fact that she was being hunted when a large dropship over the beach she had arrived on began to descend as multiple speeders jumped off it's edge. Quickly, Sarah wrapped some of her leaves around her. Now was the time to worry.

The speeders split into different directions around the perimeter of the island, Sarah trying to plan her tactics. Obviously she wasen't alone, besides the trandoshans, but there where still a scarce few other threatened people somewhere on the island. She would have to find them and help protect them, their lives now a more major task then protecting her own. Although she had never met these people, they where still in the same situation, so the more the merrier and most likely a better chance of living. She grabbed her banket of leaves an began to descend her tree. Once she hit the bottom, she threw dirt over the areas of her body that was exposed. Camflauge was the only defense she had.

She thew the leaves around her and ran in one of the directions a trandoshan had followed. seeing as the speeder would faintly make marks, she would have to listen for anything and decipher where the speeder may have made a dent in the plants across the ground. Sarah continued walking and occasionally hiding as speeders screetched off in the distance. At one point, Sarah broke out into a full time sprint. Something was above her, but she couldn't tell what. She could hear it follow her, leaping from branch to branch in the high up trees, as swift as the Convorees that nested there.

Sarah finally stopped and jumped behind one of the trees, staring back to see what it was. She looked up and spotted a momong, it's green eyes directly locked on her. She started to laugh and turned back towards the spot where she was passing through when a scrawny figure leaped out in front of her. Sarah stepped back, trying to find something to protect herself with, but couldn't take her eye off of the boy in front of her. She looked closer at him, no older than she was but not as well fed. He walked up to her and held out his hand. It didn't seem like he could speak, but his appearance could only be a result of the trandoshans kidnapping him as well.

He climbed back up one of the trees, motioning for Sarah to follow as he passed across tangled branches and limbs. Sarah ran after him, making sure to keep a distance to see where he went and not got spotted by possible trandoshans lurking in the area. Sarah was well impressed by his strength and agility for someone so poorly nourished. Before she grew exhausted from becoming winded, Sarah and her new friend made it over to a small camp, a few other people with the same poor complection as him wrapped around a small fire, it's smoke hardly visible in the darkening sky. Unable to react, they all ducked behind the logs they sat on, one swiftly dragging out a pointed stick and aiming it towards Sarah. Her friend stood in front of her, holding out a hand so show that she was with him. The girl holding the weapon put it down near the fire, the others returning to their places, still watching Sarah.

"Whose she?", asked the girl with the stick, obviously their leader. The boy in front of Sarah began to make small movements with the tip of his fingers on the back of his hand. "Brix, just because where all stuck here doesn't mean you have to help them all", the leader said, now feeding the fire more grass to burn. "There's a small stream behind those trees. You can clean up back there", she said, a tiny smile hardly visible flashing on her face. Sarah nodded in gratitude, giving a smile in return. She walked over to the stream, a tiny strand of water that the trandoshans must have accidently left behind. Or it could have just been drilled out. Sarah wiped her face and sipped some of the water, happy to know there was sweet water on this barren island. She tugged her hair out of her usual braid, her hair somewhat tangled and dirty. Sarah quickly rinsed it and brushed it back. Once she was more sanitary, she headed back towards her new companions. If she wanted to get through this, she would have to trust them and team up. "I assume you don't know who we are. I'm Kersa, and that's Brix as you know", Kersa, the leader, said pointing out the boy who led Sarah there. "Over there's Rin, and Ion and Wynt. Those two arrived when you did", Kersa said, Sarah quickly recognizing the last two as the boys who fell on the same beach she did. Kersa, Brix, and Rin must have been here a few weeks before them. "I came here first, then I found Brix and Rin. Brix got his tongue cut by one of those trandos", Kersa, Brix's accident seeming to fit his sophisticated personallity for someone his age. "Only one of us has died so far, my friend Pama", Kersa said, her voice fading from the thought. The death of her friend most likely hard to take in now that her own life was at risk and she was the only girl now. "We'll manage though. We just need a way to escape, and an extra hand will make it perfect. Let's get some sleep before we're spotted." Kersa extinguished her fire than lied down on the ground. Sarah sat on the ground, pulling her leaves off of her back. She pulled them over Kersa, hoping it'd help her to sleep. Sarah layed down, clumping the strands of grass under her head together. The leaves on the trees above her now turned completely black as the sun highlighting them finally setted. Escape would be hard, but the only other option was death. Sarah woke up, The sun causing her to be a bit dazed. She blinked against the scorching light around her and looked over at her team. It was easier to see their appearances now, Rin a dark skinned Corsian probably around fifthteen years old, Ion and Wynt both Rodian with the same pale green skin tone, and Kersa human just like Sarah, her age hardly a year over Sarah's. Brix sat up on a tree branch, his hand rubbing his head. Sarah looked closer and realized it wasn't just his head, but small horns near the tips of his pointed ears. Brix had to be a Devaronian, his young age, maybe only around thirteen, concealed the size of his horns. Male Devaronians where known for their aggresive behavior and pride of their large horns. Once again, the Trandoshan's murderous plot to place him in such a deadly place had changed Brix's appearance entirely. He seemed to enjoy solitude much more than the cockiness of the rest of his kind, and his horns where no more than a symbol of who he was, unlike the other males who constantly adored them. Sarah climbed up and sat on a branch next to Brix's. She was thankful that he led her here in the first place, but Devaronians where known to be one of the first species to travel through space, making Brix even more valuable of an allie. Still, he was her friend and not the prize that the Trandoshans intended him to be. "I can tell you're a long way from home. Onderon?", Sarah asked as Brix finally noticed she was next to him, shaking his head briefly in return. "Devaron?" Brix sighed, most likely remembering his old home. He nodded, now staring down at his feet. "It's a very nice place. What do you say we get you back there?", Sarah said, holding her hand out to Brix. He smiled and shook it, their friendship now official. Sarah was now determined to get Brix out. "Okay lover birds, it's time to go, Trandos will spot us at any second", Kersa said with a yawn, a cold stare on Brix and Sarah as well. Brix jumped out of the tree, landing gracefully on the ground. Sarah slid down beside him, surprised at how small he was to compared to her. She began to wonder where his mother was.... Rin, Ion, and Wynt rose off of the ground, slightly hesitant from sleeping on the hard surface. Still, the grass made it bearable enough to get up at all. "Here's the plan. We're going to split into two groups. The Trandos come from the left side of the beach where we came from, so we'll make our way over towards the right side. Once we meet back up, we'll set camp and take shifts from one of the trees as lookouts. Everyone clear?", Kersa said, everyone either holding up a thumb or nodding in response. "Good, I'll take Brix and Ion. I trust you three can manage." Rin nodded, now the back up leader for the other section of the team. He had been here longer, after all. "Let's get a move on," Rin shouted as he ran in towards a deep jungle of more trees and thick plants. Sarah and Wynt followed as close behind him as possible without breathing down his neck. Their journey to the other side remained peaceful for a while, only a few fights between Convorees and Momongs to distract them. Still, something seemed eery about the trail they now blazed down. "Get down!", Rin said, managing to not scream. Wynt and Sarah immediantly dropped to the ground as two laser bolts fired right beside their heads. A trandoshan parked his speeder and began firing at them, causing them to scurry into different directions. Determined, the trandoshan lept behind the trees that now shielded Sarah and her friends. Rin pointed up the tree closest to him, Sarah and Wynt quickly perceiving what he meant. Sarah jumped to grab a branch and pulled herself on top of it. The trandoshan walked right below, pulling away vines to search behind them. He stopped and looked around, Sarah trying her best not to breathe. He moved on, Sarah relieved he hadn't noticed her. Before she could enjoy the feeling, a bolt singed the bark of the branch, causing it to break, falling with Sarah on top. She hit the ground with a loud thud, the trandoshan running over to her. She stumbled on the ground, trying to crawl away while facing the Trandoshan, his gun now pointing directly at her. He fired his blaster beside her, forcing Sarah to stay put. He drew closer, his gun almost touching the top of her head. "Another trophy today", he said, his tongue now slightly sticking out carelessy as he wrapped his finger around the blaster's trigger. Without a warning, Brix tackled the trandoshan to the ground, the blaster flying into the air. Rin and Ion pinned him on the ground as Sarah leapt to grab the blaster. The trandoshan hissed and threw Rin off of his arm, pulling out a large knife that now sliced the air in front of Ion. Quick to respond, Ion rolled over and looked for projectile. Before the trandoshan could reach him, Sarah fired the blaster, hardly missing the Trandoshan's hand. Outraged by Sarah's distraction, the trandoshan lunged for her with his knife, swiping across the side of her forehead. Sarah ducked before the trandoshan could cause fatal damage and turned to meet him. Before she could fire again, the trandoshan punched her in the temple, causing her to fall on the ground again. Sarah swung her leg into his shin, causing him to fall as well. Wynt jumped out one of the trees and grabbed the blaster, sending a powerful blast into the trandoshan's chest. He gave a final twitch and fell still in the grass. Brix ran over and grabbed Sarah's shoulder. "You're pretty strong for someone your size, aren't you?", Sarah said, patting him on the head. "You alright?", Rin said, pointing at Sarah's head wound. She touched it as a small drop of blood fell. "No worries. Thanks for helping though," Sarah said now standing back up. She walked over to the trandoshan, saddened by the scene. Even though they we're being hunted, death was a very strong option. She shook her head, remembering that they we're all still alive. She pulled the knife out of his hand and tucked it into her belt. "Is everyone else alright?" "About that...", Rin said as Kersa peeked out over one of the large bushes lining the tall trees. She walked out in front of them, her leg limping under her. "What happened...?", Sarah asked back in shock. "Trandos got us too. There where about three. Still lucky Brix and I made it out alive. Ion was more prepared than both of us and made it ahead. Don't worry though, I'll be fine by tomorrow." Sarah sighed, her promise to keep everyone alive now possibly fading. She walked over to the speeder and found a small safety pack with a small blaster, some food, and what appeared to be a syringe. Obviously the Trandoshans didn't expect to be beaten like their dead brother. Sarah jumped onto the speeder's seat and grabbed the handles. "Better get on Kersa, or else your leg might get worse." "You sure you want to be driving this thing?", Kersa asked in return, bending over Sarah and wiping some of the blood off of her forehead with her thumb. "I'm fine, just a scratch. As soon as we reach our destination, we can worry about our wounds. We haven't made it that far from the left beach, so we'll just have to leave the Trandoshans over here. They won't expect us on one of the bikes, so the sound shouldn't bring too much attention." Kersa nodded, still unsure about their trip to the other side. She hopped on the back of the speeder, Sarah now beginning to take off. She went at a speed not too fast for the others to run beside and enough so that she didn't upset her aching head. They would have to be as precautious as possible. As soon as the team made it to the other side of the island and set up camp, Sarah and the others helped Kersa down onto a patch of long grass. Sarah grabbed the pack on the speeder and searched through it's various pockets. She pulled out a small strand of bandage from one of the smaller poutches and walked back over Kersa. "You're ankle looks twisted, but this should help", Sarah said, now placing the bandage on Kersa's bruised leg. "What's that?", Kersa asked, looking down at her leg. "Bacta patch. It'll help the bruises than should dig deeper towards the broken bone." "That doesn't seem right, we should save that for emergencies", Kersa protested. "This is an emergency. There's a lot more in the pack, and you're not so useful if you can't move", Sarah said with a sincere smile. "Try not to move you're leg. I doubt it will take long to heal with that patch on. I'll see if I can use some herbs for a healing concoction." "How do you know all of this stuff?", Kersa said. "I used to be a medic. Had to know a lot for that kind of job." Kersa nodded then slid more grass under her leg. "Thanks for helping Sarah. You can take a break if you want. I'll look after Kersa," Rin said, now wrapping his arm around Kersa to prop her up. Sarah nodded and pulled the safety pack. No one else had looked inside, so the syringe would be a surprise to them all. If Sarah could get water out of a tree, there might be a source of it nearby. She walked a few yards away from camp, digging her knife in a plump tree nearby as stars began to pop out across the orange sky. Once she had a neat hole, she placed the syringe inside. Small beads of water trickled out of the syringe which began to turn into a long strand as thick as the syringe's opening. Sarah leaned under the liquid pouring out of the syringe, taking large gulps of the cooled water, a result of the tree's thick bark keeping the sun away from the roots holding the water. The trandoshans must have been careful to hold these kinds of trees for their own use, suspecting their game wouldn't have access to tools to open them. The water must have come from somewhere.... She traced a line with her finger across a line of trees near the one she opened. Each tree in the line was thicker and taller than the ones next to it. Sarah left her finger pointed in the direction of the tree line, pulling out the syringe and running beside the trees with a large grin on her face. She quickly paused, the mud below her to thick to walk through. Mud? Sarah looked down and realized she was right beside a tiny creek. Most likely another part of the trandoshan plan. There was no point in killing them from thirst, but to kill their game by hand. Still, Sarah was very excited by her discovery, one that would help her and the others to survive. She kicked her feet around in the swirling water then sat down on the bank. She peered down, hardly recongnizing her own reflection. The gash on her head was wide open, a deep blue bruise on her temple, fatigue showing under her eyes, and her rib cage now slightly showing from the scarce amount of meals she could find. Sarah got up, her jaw now slightly quivering. She held it and looked around at the trees near her. Sarah clawed her way up the tree closest to her and trimmed a few leaves from their branch. She dipped them in the cool stream, then placed them on her forehead. The leaves grew sticky from the water, making a decent bandage. Sarah couldn't place a name on the trees, but from her brief study of plants with the elements to heal various injuries, she could tell that they had just enough properties to help her and Kersa. Sarah dug her fingers around the ground and fumbled with various vines, grasses, and more leaves until she had enough ingredients to help Kersa create an effective healing agent. "Hey", Ion called, a few yards into the woods away from Sarah. He ran over to her, eyeing the overflowing amount of plants wrapped in Sarah's arms. "I came to see where you were, but I guess I shouldn't bother your collecting...." "Actually, I was about to mix these up to help Kersa's leg. Got anything I can put these in?" Ion pulled a small tin cup, small designs and a set of initials embroidered on the side. "This was my mom's. It all I have left of her. You can use it though. Sorry it's so small." "It's perfect Ion, I just need parts of these plants. I promise I'll give it back soon as I'm dumb", Sarah said, excited with her materials. Ion ran back into the woods, careful not to make too much sound, just in case trandoshans came out for a late-night hunt. Sarah walked to the stream and swished water around in Ion's tin cup. Once bubbles sloshed across the surface of the water, Sarah broke off pieces of leaves and dropped them into the mixture. She peeled off the skin of a few vines, then added torn up pieces to the cup. After Sarah stirred strands of grass to her mesh, the mixture turned into a thick green, sloppy paste. Sarah, now satisfied with her work, walked back towards camp again. Kersa and Brix where now the only ones on the ground, the others most likely on look out in the trees. "Better safe than sorry", Kersa said, noticing Sarah looking up into the trees for the others. "Brought you something", Sarah said as she sat next to Kersa, handing her the tin cup full of mush. "Drink it, it should help your leg heal faster. Mind if I look at it?" Kersa nodded, sucking on the edge of the cup, occasionally taking sips. Sarah smiled and lightly pressed around the bacta patch. There was a light swelling, but the patch was healing her ankle very quickly, Kersa's leg now back to an orange color. "I found another stream. We can try cooling your leg in it tomorrow. You should be able to walk by then too", Sarah said, estimating the time it would take for the concoction to kick in. "Sounds great, I'm sure we can all get a drink tonight too", Kersa said, happy to relieve herself of dehydration. "Good plan, I'll take Brix and Wynt down, than Rin and and Ion. I'll fill up the cup for you too." Sarah took the tin cup again and called out for Wynt. He fell off of a branch behind them, followed by Rin. "What's up?" "I found a stream not too far away, thought I could take Brix and you to get a drink." "I can look after Kersa till you get back", Rin offered. "Thanks, I'll get you and Ion when we get back." Ion began yelling a warning just as a firery ray sliced into the bark of a tree just a few feet away from Sarah. Without even thinking, Sarah dropped to the ground, pulling the blaster out of her pack and shot at the Trandoshan nearest to her. He fell back, a direct shot from Sarah hitting him in the shoulder. About four other Trandoshans rised from their speeders, their blasters aiming in all directions. Sarah tossed her knife to Rin, Brix now pulling Kersa away from the scene. Wynt pulled out the second blaster and hit a trandoshan only a few feet away from Kersa and Brix. Ion now appeared from the trees and was able to jump on another trandoshan from the farthest end. Only two remained able to battle, the others scurrying back to their speeders, unaware of the size of the pack that they now savagly attempted to kill. One of the last two gave stuck his tongue up into the air and let out an unpleasant yell. He pulled out two pointed knives, sparking with electrically charged ends. Sarah shot towards them, unable to even gasp as the first trando she had hit smacked the gun from her. She tripped him over in return, ducking as the two charged knives plunged towards her. The trandoshan pulled back, too slow to manuever a new plan as Sarah kicked him full-force in the shins. He let out another fierce cry, this time more contorted than the last as he fell back. Sarah pulled the knives from his grasp and held one to the trandoshan's neck. His tongue hissed again, but proved no threat. Sarah looked up to see that three trandoshans had escaped, the fourth laying dead on the ground. Before Sarah could conclude his fate, the trandoshan beside her thrust the knife by his throat to the side and flung his hands near Sarah's. A blaster shot pierced through his upper side before he could lock onto Sarah's neck. Kersa sat up against a tree, Wynt's blaster in her hand and a baffled Brix standing beside her. "What now?", she asked, handing the blaster over to Brix. "We get off this death trap."

A trandoshan crashed into Sarah. It was complete chaos on the freighter. After the trandoshan attack, Kersa, Wynt, Rin, Ion, Brix, and Sarah grabbed the remaining food they could find and set out on their mission. Kersa was a bit of a challenge with her broken leg, but her ability to walk was growing at a rapid pace. They jumped onto the ship from the low hanging branches nearby and set off a a full out battle between them and the trandoshans. Brix now had the knife, his skills debating against the others of a trandoshan, both wrestling to through each other off balance. Kersa was very handy with fist-combat, her leg the only disadvantage to her advanced technique. Wynt and Ion both where excellent with a blaster, as most rodians where. Rin grabbed a metal bar that he was able to swing at the trandoshans like a staff, delivering heavy blows to most of them. Sarah was left with one of the electric knives from the previous battles. The trandoshan tackling her to the ground, his pale skin matching his suit, snarling with a wide nose, and his eyes squinted in red hatred, was the leader of the trandoshans, Garnac. They where near the freighter long enough to discover some of the names of the trandoshans. As she was being attacked at the moment, the information wouldn't be too helpful in her situation. Sarah was the first one to reach the freighter, and after spinning across the deck from the impact, she ended up closer to him than she had hoped. "You should know when to act like prey!" Sarah waved her knife at him, but to no avail. He pulled out his gun, unable to ready it as Sarah pulled her knee up as hard as possible into his stomach. He let out a brief grunt, just distracted enough for Sarah to pull out from under him and reposition her knife. Garnac was far to powerful to allow this to go by and pointed his gun at Sarah's head. She paused in shock, waiting for any sign of hesitation from him. "You should have given up while you had the chance." "Would've died either way", Sarah said, kicking the gun out of his hand, his shot missing and wandering aimlessly into the air. Garnac stood back up and ran after Sarah. She ducked below his arms, her knife hitting into his shoulder as he passed her. He fell down enraged, the skin on his shoulder now visible and slightly burnt from the knife. Sarah pointed the knife back at him, watching the battle on the other side. The ground below her began to shake, the engines now no longer humming, but roaring. The ship was now flying, rising above the beach inch by inch. Sarah got down on her knees to steady herself, still pointing her knife at a frustrated Garnac, as they approached the clouds. Dozens of hovering platforms held even more trandoshans in each, all with their guns pointed down at the frieghter. One of the trandoshans onboard must have contacted the rest of the hunters, as well as friends, and lifted the ship to them. "Quite a hunting party...", Kersa said, making her way over to Sarah. A dropship added to the hover-platforms. There was only one way of escape. "We have to get to that ship", Sarah said, pointing out the metal hulled dropship. "That?" "You'd rather stay here?" The dropship's door opened, four trandoshans inside with Charged Particle Repeater Guns. "That's a bit excessive. What are we going to do with him?", Kersa said, pointing to Garnac. "Leave him, we have bigger things to worry about." Sarah grabbed Garnac's gun, causing him to snarl, than ran over to Brix, Rin, Wynt, and Ion. The trandoshans where now regrouping nearby. Blaster bolts pierced the metal deck of the frieghter from the hovering trandoshans and the ones in the dropship. "Rin, Ion, Wynt, you shoot out those trandos in the dropship! The pilot won't know what happened to them, so the ship should stay in range for us to jump across!", Kersa said, having to yell over the gunfire. Although it seemed hardly impossible to survive to get close to it, the dropship was just close enough to the deck to get into. "Let's go!" Rin picked up a blaster and began to shoot at the trandoshans in the dropship, hitting one right in the chest. Ion and Wynt began firing beside him, combining their forces together and repeated Rin's formation. Kersa, Sarah, and Brix ran behind them, hardly dodging the bolts slamming around them. The red of them began to become blinding, Sarah hardly able to see Ion take the last trandoshan out. Trying to regain her senses, Sarah finally realized they where now at the edge of the deck. With a great leap, all 6 of them hurled their way into the ship, the trandoshans still firing at their feet. With a mighty heave, Rin continued to pull the door shut, blaster bolts pounding against it. Wynt ran up and slammed his against against the trandoshan pilot, pulling him out of the cockpit. Brix jumped into the seat and grabbed the controls. The ship shook unsteadily and then pierced through the sky into hyperdrive. Finally the mute Devarion could return home.

Old Friends
Lines of clones filed outside of a large Republic base on Ryloth. Sarah stood in front of them, standing tall with her arms behind her back. Sarah was now in charge of the squadrant, a result from their last mission. She congratulated their couarge in their previous effort in battle, switching into their next tasks. She looked over and saw Luke Docker waiting off of the stage. She dismissed the squad, slowly turning as they marched back inside. She ran over to Luke and hugged him, causing them to both tumble backwards. "Hi works too", he said, standing up straight. "I haven't seen you in forever, what have you been up to?", Sarah asked, forgetting about the clones she now led needing a more civilized leader. It had been a long time since she had seen Luke, the Clones Wars now nearing an end without them knowing. Luke and Sarah continued their conversation while walking inside behind the group of clones. "So where are you off to?", Luke asked, knowing Sarah's mission on Ryloth was at an end. "Well, there's the Festival of Lights on Naboo coming up. This year I get to attend, but the rest of the squad is busy on other duties, so this time I'm going alone", Sarah said, a bit of depression in her voice. "How about I come? I have a few days off", Luke said, detecting the sadness in Sarah's statement. "Yay!", Sarah said with a large smile. The two walked inside, Sarah pausing to view a screen. "Well we better head off now or else we'll be late", she said, scratching her head to calculate the numbers to decipher the time. "Isn't the ceremony not until a day or two if we went now?" "I said the ceremony was, not my visits", Sarah said with a mysterious smile, Luke curious as to what she meant. After passing through a series of rooms and hangars full of clone troopers and military equipment, Luke and Sarah made it to a transport ship. They sat down on a bench, left in the privacy of the ship by themselves. "So, what have you been doing?", Sarah asked Luke expecting to hear about his many tales of perilous adventures, whether military victories or individual discoveries. She sighed to herself, hardly ever have such a discriptive life of honor and integrity like everyone else did. "I've kept myself busy, the marines are a bit behind me, but I get into a little trouble." "Still risking your life out there huh?", Sarah said with a blank expression. "Bet Rax has you busy too?", Sarah laughed. Luke smiled, Sarah knowing what a caring relationship they must have had. A long conversation passed, their transpot now finally arriving at their destination. Luke walked out to see Theed, Naboo's heavenly capital, the Solleu River glistening on the right while Theed's marvelously crafted buidings and eye popping colors on the left. "Come here often?", Luke asked, taking in all the sights around him. Sarah walked out in a expensive looking ball gown with her hair neatly tied behind her head as wel as a. "How did you...?", Luke said, looking back inside the ship. "Hey, when your Govenor of Bakura, you get a few advantages. One of them is knowing royalty, which means dress to impress. Surprisingly, I do this a lot", Sarah said with knowingful thinking. "Well, uh, that's cool", Luke said rubbing the back of his head as Sarah walked elegantly down the ship's ramp. "Wait, whe're meet up with...." "I am visiting the Queen. I'm sure you'll pass as a guard though", Sarah said, refering to him as a lower rank. Luke gave a quick frown than ran to catch up with Sarah. They walked down the road toward's the palace, citizens of the large city walking in and out of the circular shaped buildings. Luke and Sarah continued to explore and have fun, walking along the arched walkways against the massive constructions by the palace. Flowers bloomed all around, the pillared walkways now expanding. Two doors stood amoungst the others, more detailed and enlarged, a long carpet leading inside. Luke looked at the front of the building, a staired passage surronded by marbled statues leading inside. "Why didn't we go that way?", Luke asked, pointing to the main doorway. "It's the Fesitval of Lights, remember what happened last time?" "Hey that wasen't the guard's fault", Luke said, giving defense towards the guards who where involved in the conflct that happened the year before. "You sound like Cold now", Sarah said, regarding their friends interest in military of all kinds. Luke opened one of the doors for Sarah, the two escorted inside by palace guards. Queen Neeyutnee sat at the end of the hall in front of a large window, cups neatly prepared on a silver tray. Luke stood in bewilderment as Sarah glanced at him, obviously humored by his reaction, and gestured for him to stay put. She walked over and sat beside the queen, both taking a cup and drinking as presentably and mannered as possible. Luke crashed into a chair next to him, quickly looking left and right to make sure no one noticed his clumsiness inside one of the most essential buildings to the entire republic. He looked back down the hall as Sarah and the Queen seemed to be deep in a conversation, friendly emotions popping up on their faces. Luke was not entirely sure what they where talking about, but their close friendship still confused him. After a long time of waiting, Sarah finally walked over to Luke who now seemed to be extremely bored. "You're in the most official buildings of all of Naboo, you could at least look entertained", Sarah said nearly laughing. Queen Neeyutnee waved to Sarah as she walked out into a seperate room, Luke pretending to fall asleep. "Come on, we're not done yet", Sarah said, grabbing Luke's hand and nearly dragging him while running back out of the palace. They walked down to another door, a large hanger inside, the floor neatly marbled smoothly in black and white, starfighters parked in rows nearby. A large cruiser continued to fly through the hangar's door, Senator Padme Amidala along with her guards led by Captain Typho walking out of the ship. Sarah smiled and greeted the senator, introducing her to Luke whom she had met previously. Padme whispered something in Sarah's ear causing her to laugh as she looked back at Luke. Sarah as well as the others walked back out of the hangar, Luke about ready to sag over, questioning why he came. He followed close behind as they walked through up a flight of stairs, potted plants and red furnishing along the way. Luke looked over the guards to see Padme walk back down one side of the hall, Sarah turning and grabbing Luke by the hand again. "Yes?, he asked turning to face her as she brought him back down the stairs. "I got everything arranged for you tonight, but you're going to be on the same floor as...", Sarah turned her head back to see if anyone was near them, "The handmaidens." Luke turned to see a few woman behind them, giggling either because Luke and Sarah where overheard or they actually where enjoying their liesurement during their time off. Luke smiled at Sarah, causing her to frown in disproval. Before he could reply, Sarah opened the door at the end of the stairs and walked into a domed building connected to the palace. Similar stairs where inside, but where slightly more circular. At the top where halls full or dorms for guests. As dusked neared, Sarah showed Luke to his room, placing her hand on the top of his head and turning it to face the door as the hand maids walked by. "Relax", he said laughing. "Just protecting the world", Sarah said, opening her door dramatically and shutting it behind her. Sarah walked over to a bag she had taken on the trip that was brought to her room previously. She pulled out out a brush, pulling her hair back down and slowly stroked it with the brush. A majestic waterfall crashed below the building, the water swirling in mulitiple directions as the sky became dark and starry. Gold's and green's sparkled against the large structures outside by the faint red and yellow sunset. The mixed colors reminded Sarah of the sparks of light at tomorrow's festival. She smiled at the thought, the idea a hard comparision to her home. She stretched her arms, leaning her head back and walked towards her bed. She glanced back down at her bag, remebering she left a blaster inside. A little practice wouldn't hurt, and tomorrow would be a big day. She pulled it out of her bag and headed for the door. There had to be something to practice on. The next day, Luke and Sarah met back together and toured the rest of Theed. After stopping at a popular, sunlighted dinner, strolling through the nearby palace verandas, and gardens full of snowy doves, the Festival of Light soon began. Once squeezing through a large crowd and picking seats in an isle of the large benched arena, Luke and Sarah grew excited by the spectacular show to start. Palpatine walked onto the center of arena and introduced the ceremony's significance and symbolism. He then walked to a guarded seat high above the others and the first firework was launched into the air. Images of Naboo's past history was placed into each firework, Sarah and Luke watching in bewilderment of the beautiful pictures engraved in the sky by fire. The fireworks paused as a republic symbol stood in the last firework, slowly descending back down. Sarah frowned in confusion, then quickly realizing what was happening. The fire was coming back down at an unsafe distance like burning hail, unextinguished like the others. Guards began frantically evacuating the people in the stands, the firework exploding in a large pattern of waves, barely missing the crowd. A group of sentients with their faces covered fumbled with the system that was releasing the fireworks, trying to send out another wave. Whatever was going on was no accident. Padme Amidala, Queen Neeyutnee, and a few other senators who attended where quickly rushed out of the stands as left over debree from the firework hit the ground. Luke and Sarah looked at each other frantically and ducked for cover. From below the stands guards where visible, now rushed towards the frenzy of sentinents now releasing another bomb into the air. They fought off the guards, throwing them all to the ground. Sarah and Luke rushed after them as they ran out of the arena. The crowd of people now buzzed around trying to find their way from the arena. An explosion set off within the arena, fire blazing from the sides and out towards the now shrieking crowd. Sarah looked around for the culprits, catching them riding off in a passenger airspeeder. "Come on!", Sarah shouted, hopping into another airspeeder. "Isn't this stealing?", Luke called, following her lead. "It's borrowing", Sarah said, putting the speeder at fullspeed. "That's not really different", Luke said, having to shout over the engines. Sarah smiled and followed after the airspeeder in front of them down the streets of Theed. They had noticed they where being followed before, so they winded down the narrowest roads, turning in every direction. Finally, a masked woman stood up and shot a blaster at them, Luke ducking as Sarah twisted the speeder, dodging the flailing bolts around them. Sarah grinned as the woman sat back down, but quickly turned the speeder, slamming on the brakes as a flashing grenade fell out of the other speeder. A burst of light flashed, smoke concealing the speeder as it got away. Sarah and Luke rolled out, coughing as flames licked around whatever they could find to burn. "You okay?", Luke asked, helping Sarah back on her feet. "I'm alright, you?" "Been better, but we should get going." "We're in the capital of Naboo, how do you plan on finding them now?" Luke held out a datapad, a small light beeping as it sped around on the screen. "Teach me how to track sometime?", Sarah said, now completely humbled. Luke grinned and ran down the road with Sarah. "Which way?" "Due North", Luke called, the two taking a sharp turn to the right. After a long pattern of turning, they finally ended up at a dock warehouse. "Give me a second to open this door", Luke said, picking at the door's lock. Luke and Sarah pulled out their blasters as the door slowly slid open. Inside stood about ten blasters pointing back at them. "Nice try boy, but I think I know a tracker when I see one", Cad Bane walked out from the shadows, tossing the tracking device on the ground and crushing it under his boot. Aurra Sing walked with a sniper rifle, cautiously aiming it towards Luke and Sarah, along with the two bounty hunters Embo and Robonino. "Haven't you tried this before?", Sarah asked, slowly lowering her blaster. "This time I have no intentions of ending the war. I'm here for the Hutts. Seems they don't like one of your senator buddies", Bane said. "I thought I'd kill you two in person though." "Long as I get my money you can take all the time you want", Aurra said, raising her sniper against her shoulder and walking towards the back. "Last time I team up with you lousy assassins." Sarah looked around for a way to escape. "Now's a good time for a plan", Luke whispered to Sarah. Her face grew excited. She knew exactly where they were. As Bane finally came to Luke, Sarah kicked a Weequay beside her and grabbed his gun. She aimed back at Bane who now concentrated his blaster back on her. Sarah fired at the cieling, a grate falling on top of Bane. Luke and Sarah rushed towards the back as Bane toppled over, catching the attention of his minions. "After them!", he called, throwing the grate off. Sarah slid behind a crate as blasters shot towards them. "What now?" Luke called, shooting his blaster back. "Look around." Luke turned to see blaster holes in perfectly positioned sacks and poles. "I trained here last night. Looks like we got lucky." "Why?" "There's no time, get the bombs!", Bane called, the blasters now ceasing to fire. The bounty hunters rushed out towards a cealed door. Luke and Sarah quickly followed, shooting out two of the hunters. Blasters began to fire again, Luke and Sarah able to duck behind cover and taking out another three. The hall ahead was dark, orange light crawling up the sides. "There's some of the most highly wanted hunters in there, so we better be careful. I think I know their plan, so we have the advantage." "9 to 2. Great advantage." "Follow me", Sarah said, running down the hall. Not only where they outnumbered, but a complete set of armored airspeeders and starships were lined up in rows of the bay. "What up with those?" "They where made for Palpatine in case something like this happened. Guess they got here first. Plus, there here to kill one of the senators and they got access to some of the weapons they where designing for protection in the festival. Looks like their trying to sneak it to whoever hired them." "You got all that from death threats?" Sarah clicked her tongue and ran to the side of one of the speeders, holding her gun beside her head. She pointed it over the car then ran to the other side of the room, careful to duck beside the vehicles around her. "You two go find the intruders. I'll handle the ship." Sarah peered over one of the speeders and watched as two of the cloaked hunters walked in her direction, unaware of where she was at. She leaned down waited for them to pass by. Brief moans and fighting sounded behind a rocking speeder till Sarah stood back up with one of the cloaks on. She pulled the hood over her head and walked down the way that the hunters came. Unable to react, Embo ran out and crashed her onto the ground, his foot holding her shoulder down and his bowcaster aimed at her head. Luke's blaster slammed against his head, causing Embo to titer backwards. As Luke pointed his blaster at Embo, he fell over, electricity flashing around him, rendering him incompacitated. Robonino stood back to make sure Luke couldn't move. "I think that's enough", Sarah said jumping back on her feet and pointing her gun at Robonino. He fell backwards and scurried against one of the speeders. Sarah took Luke's blaster and pointed it at Embo without taking her eyes off of the traumatized Robonino. Luke got back up, slightly dizzy from the shock. "Well it's been fun, but we gotta go", Sarah called as she and Luke ran off towards the leftover hunters. A ship was being loaded, five men carrying the large cargo inside. Luke and Sarah opened fired on it, the cargo falling onto the ground. The hunters fired in return, their blasters once again outnumbering Sarah and Luke. Surprisingly, Luke and Sarah where able to take them out, quickly celebrating their sucess. They where soon interrupted as a ship flew above them, Bane standing at the open door. "Thanks for taking care of the extra luggage." Robonino went up to the control panel and attempted to open the hangar door. "It's broke!" Luke looked at Sarah who now was blooming another large grin on her face. "I wanted to see what would happen if I hit it..." The door shattered into pieces, falling out of the bay towards the dark sky outside. The bombs must have not been as valuable as they thought. The ship lowered towards the floor of the hangar, Embo and Robonino walking inside. As the ship took off, Aurra walked to the open entrance of it and fired her sniper at Luke and Sarah. They ducked down to the floor as Aurra went back inside. The door started to rise back behind her. There was only one thing left to do. Sarah grabbed her blaster and fired directly into the ship. Luke and Sarah where blown back by another explosion resulting from the back of the ship, causing it to fall out of the hangar. Luke and Sarah rushed towards the opening and watched it plummet towards the ground. ₪₪₪

After all of the excitement, Luke and Sarah met with Bail Organa before they took off to go home. "Thank you for all of your help. I believe the assassins have been tracking me for sometime. If you two weren't able to catch their trail, the republic surely would be in chaos." It was understandable for someone to have the plans to kill Organa. Not only was his position high in politics, but he was also a great help towards the war effort. "I'm sure the senate would agree. We're glad we could be of help to you, not to mention that we were here in time", Sarah said. After saying goodbye to Bail's fellow political figures and reassuring their safety, Luke and Sarah set off. "So, what happened to the bounty hunters?" "Well, after everyone had to clean up our mess, they found Robonino and Embo. Bane and Sing snuck out though." "We still saved the day though, right?" "As usual", Sarah said as Luke piloted the ship off of Naboo. "How long are we gonna keep this up?" "Till there's nothing left."

Carlac's Strike
Sarah had served the Republic for many years, mainly with various organizations including the Grand Army of the Republic and briefly with Intelligence units. Now she took full service to the Republic Navy and was in training to become a low-class Admiral. The decision was tough seeing as she wouldn't be able to join the people she had worked with for so long. Still, the Republic needed all kinds personnel now more then ever. The job was important and fited Sarah's application. Presently she was serving on the Spirit of the Republic under the command of Admiral Wulf Yularen. After missions against smaller droid warships throughout Wild Space, supplies grew scarce and Yularen commanded his fleet to return to Coruscant. Sarah sat down in front of a set of controls within the bridge of the ship. Her job was to help watch the scanners as well as give strategic advice when neccissary. The fleet was also being accompanied by members of the 212th Attack Battalion, ensuring their safe trip. (to be continued...)

Friends and Family
Sarah has a very large amount of friends and stories to each. Many enemies have been involved as well, including there own share of tales. Her family is excelling and so far includes Katie Odoon (loving sister in game and IRL), Jessica Jackson (Niece of Sarah and loved dearly by her mother and aunt), Tycho Saberslicer (the once adopted Son of Sarah, but sadly was put back into adoption after Sarah found difficulty caring for him), Captain Dee (close friend of Sarah's), Aurra Runesligner (Sarah's close friend), Janus Firebot (Jess husband and friend of Sarah), Jaller Racer (son of Katie and Racer as well as nephew of Sarah), Marn Silveroller (twin of Jaller, son of Kate and Racer, as well as Sarah's nephew), Lin Hope (Daughter of Katie and Racer as well as niece of Sarah), Raxxum Gelvan (ex-wife of Jaller, ex-girlfriend of Luke), Alpha-Marl Photoline (friend of Sarah), Luke Docker (Best friend of Sarah, Turkeymaster) and don't forget about good old Lions Stafford and many more.

The Birthday Mash-up
Once upon a time in a mythical world, a long time ago in a galaxy far far away, blah blah blah, one small human smit ruled all the the others on a very special day. That day, was the day that she was brought into a perfectly, sanitatly, NORMAL world. In an effort to save time, they called it, a birthday. Sarah and Luke brought blind folded Stephanie into a dark room. Immediantly, Sarah pulled off her blind fold and turned on the lights, revealing a group of Stephanie's friends including FieldMarine Cold, Marl, Jessica Jackson, Turbo, Raxxum, Janus Firebot, Xenna Striker, Jaller Racer, and who not? Everyone then yelled "Surprise!" In the room contained many presents and decoartions. Stephanie was full of excitement. She hugged Marl, but looked down at the table in the middle of the room. On it was... nothing. "The cake is missing!", yelled Luke. The crowd gasped. "Oh no they found me! I told them I need more time to buy gas and a stick...", Sarah said. "No the cake is still here, I can feel it in my metal lung", Marl said. Stephanie began crying. "Don't worry Steph, we'll find that cake!" "Why is it so solid?! THE LUNG IS SOLID PLATED!!!", Stephanie cried, jumping on Sarah then following down. "Alright team!", Sarah said, now dressed as a coach. We need to get that cake down to the touch down zone or we lose the game!" "But coach, we don't have uniforms!", Jaller called. Sarah snapped her fingers and everyone instantly wore tutus with green tunics. "NOW GET MOVING!". All of a sudden the scene changed to Luke and Sarah running from a bolder. Sarah now had shot black hair with a sac on her side. Luke wore a peculiar hat, with a 12 o'clock shadow. "Quick, give me the cake!", Luke shouted. "Give me the pony doll!",Sarah yelled back. Luke pulled out a doll of a brony and threw it back to Sarah. She ran ahead of him and tumbled out through the end. An avalanche caused the opening to close, leaving Luke alone with the boulder approaching. As he began to scream bloody murder, the channel switched. Marl and Sarah where dressed as news man casting a news show. "Today we have exciting news. A horrific beast is rampaging down rainbow road." A camera showed footage of a cute little kitten prancing down a road made out of a rainbow. Luke, Jaller, Jess, Xenna, Janus, Raxxum, Turbo, Count Dooku, a boo-ba, and dudely the dragon rode down the road, but stopped to look at the kitten. Dudley kneeled down to pet it and give it th cake, but the kitten turned into a horrible monster and ate him. Quickly everyone tried to catch the cake as it flew through the air. As the boo-ba was bout to catch it, the booked closed and a new one was opened. Jaller and Jess ran out of a hall, Jess wearing her hair up in two buns on her ears, Jaller wearing his hair down and now blond. Stormtroopers where running after them. "What do we do?" Jess asked. Jaller pulled out the caked and used it to grapple onto a bar on the roof. He grabbed Jess and swung over, trying to reach the otherside. All of a sudden they fell and Racer came out."Jaller, I am your father!" " I KNOOOOOW" Jaller yelled, running away with the cake and ditching Jess. The montage turned into a Midsummer's Night dream. Jess sat with Sarah at a cantina. "So like, I was all in love with Marl, but he was giving Steph gogglely eyes, and I started liking Janus, but Katie was playing with Janus in that sand box, but then I heard Janus liked me. Can you believe it?", Jess said, shoving some fries in her mouth. "I lost something once", Sarah said as ran poured down on the window. The opening credits stopped, and Luke walked into a swampy marsh. He saw the cake on a silver platter. Slowly, he approached it. Suddenly, Marl dropped out of the sky, "My precious", he said guarding the cake. Luke reached for it, but Marl smacked his hand. Luke reached for it again. Marl smacked his hand. Luke reached for it. Marl smacked his hand. Luke reached for it. Marl smacked his hand. The website address changed to a new scene. Everyone came together, this time in the Hunger Games. Inside of a metal shack stood the cake. Everyone rose up out of tunnel like elevators. When they came to a stop, everyone ran to the cake. As soon as everyone was about to get the cake, the scene shattered. Sarah ran back to the room with the rest of the gang to find Steph. "We just couldn't get to the cake, no matter what horrible paraody we made." "That's okay, as long as I have you guys", Stephanie said with a smile ,"I don't need anything!" "Wait second", Janus said. Sarah and Janus walked up to a closet and opened the door. Inside was an odd blueberry angel demon with the cake. "Bob", Janus and Sarah said at the same time with a smile. Everyone started laughing and the party began. Everyone had some cake, and they all had a flash mob. In other words Steph, Happy Birthday, from Frosty and I to you. THE END.
