Taken

«Please, don’t let the pirates take me away from you, father.»

He silently looked down at me, his hands on my shoulders,

«You will make it back to me, daugther.» he said calmly, «I know it. You’re strong. But for now, we need the money.»

I looked at him with tears in my eyes,

«Does money really mean more to you than your own daughter?»

He shaked his head,

«You know I don’t mean it like that.»

«But your actions speak louder than words…» I said as the pirates grabbed me and dragged me away from him.

«You will make it back to me, daughter.» he repeated, «You will make it back.»

I looked into his eyes, before the pirates pulled me away for good. And what did I see? Sadness? Regret? The next thing I knew, was that I got a back pulled over my head.

 

«Welcome back, Hagar. I’ve missed you.» It was Hondos voice. The pirate-leader.

The bag was dragged off, and I saw him sitting in his chair.

«Come closer, my dear. Come closer.» he pleaded as the other pirates pushed me towards him, «Let me have a look on you.»

He raised up, coming up close. I turned my face away as he studied me,

«You seem in perfect health. That’s good.»

«You have no right to go in to someones home and take what dosen’t belong to you.» I snapped.

«Oh,» He returned slowly, to his chair, walking backwards, «You belong to me, alright. I bought you fair and square.»

«It wasen’t the right thing to do.»

Hondo scrathed his chinn,

«Maybe it wasen’t right for your father to sell you either?» he laughed, «But here you are. All mine.»

I drew my breath slowly, trying to calm myself «You will let me go.» I closed my eyes, and waved my hand, saying, «You will let me go.» it was something I had seen the Jedi, Skywalker do last time he rescued me, and now I wanted to try it for my self. But all I got when I opened my eyes again, was a room full of laughter.

«You can’t mind-trick us, Hagar.» Hondo said funny, «We’re not that weak.»

«You…» I gave up, letting my hand fall down to the side, «Could… could you call the Jedi, please? I wanna speak to Skywalker.»

It was more laughter,

«We don’t bring the Jedi here, girl.» it came from Hondo, «That’s… to dangerous.» he dismissed me with a wave with his hand, «Now, get her downstairs.»

 

To walk down a stair, with my hands handcuffed on my back, was difficult enough. Because I was unable to hold onto someting, and afraid of falling.

The pirates who led me down, didn’t make it easy for my though. As they pushed my harshly down.

We finaly made it to the bottom, and walked through a dark corridor. I saw the cell before me. The one I had been in last time, standing there with its door open.

When we reach it, they pushed me inside, so I stumbled and fell,

«And now you stay in there.» before they locked the bars shut behind me.

I silently sighed. My breath was shaking, and I closed my eyes, not wanting to believe my circumstances.

What had my father done? Had he become greedy? Desiring money? And then… Did he put it before the rest of the family? Didn’t he see what was best?

He had offered her for money… so that he and the rest could have food on the table. Was that for the best? What was he thinking? He said I would make it back to him, but I didn’t think that would ever happen. Not again. And… I wasen’t sure I even wanted to. Not after what he just did. I wouldn’t risk to be sold away a third time, and last time, I haven’t even known that he had been selling me. That he had made a deal with the pirates. And it was only because he and my other siblings could survive. He had to give up someting, but I couldn’t understand why it was one of his daughters…

I had to take care of my self from now on, but I would never return home again. Never. If I managed to escape, I would seek out the Jedi instead.

 

The bars opened up, and the guard who had stood on the outside, stepped in.

«Up you go, girl.» he said an grabbed my arm, pulling my to my feet, «We have a buyer. That want to see everything we have.»

«Is it the Jedi?» I asked, hopefully.

«Nope. But it is a surprise.»

He brought me upside, to the main hall. To a table, were it sat… The man turned around and I gasped. It was a Zygerian slaver. I started to back away, taking a few steps back.

The Zygerian raised up to his full hight, looking down at me with his black, dark eyes,

«You afraid, scum?»

I looked desperately at the pirates, who seemed to enjoy the scene,

«Please… you can’t be serious… You ain’t gonna sell me to him, are you?»

But Hondo overlooked me, his attention was towards the Zygerian.

«If you wanna buy her, You gonna pay the double price, because she is extremely worth to us.»

The Zygerian only smiled, an evil smile,

«That’s no problem.» he reach his hand in his pocket and pulled out some coins, «Here you go.» handing them to him.

«Many thanks.» Hondo said and took them. He nodded to me, «Off you go, Hagar.»

But I stood there frozen, as in shock. I looked back at the pirate in panic,

«Please, Hondo. Don’t sell me further away. I rather stay here with you.»

Hondo grinned at me,

«Oh. So you want now?»

«Yes. Please let me join your crew. I don’t wanna go with any stranger.»

Hondo laughed,

«Ha, ha. It’s to late my dear. I already sold you, so bye, bye.»

The Zygerian came and grabbed me, he held a whip in the other hand,

«Come on, slave.» he snarled.

«Hondo, please…» I shouted as I was dragged away. But the pirate-leader only sat there with a smirk as he sipped his glas of wine. He raised his hand in a goodbye towards me,

«Bye, bye, Hagar. Maybe we see each other again. Ha, ha.»

And when I was outside, the front doors on the building, closed.

Ahsokas talkshow

«So, what’s we gonna talk about?» it came from Anakin, who were smiling upon Ahsoka and Barris.

«My sister.» Ahsoka answered, «Because I can’t quite believe I have one, and…»

«That’s because you dosen’t have any.» Anakin interrubted her.»

«Yes, I do.»

«No.»

«Hold on, now.» It came from Obi-Wan, «We’re not gonna let this talkshow turn into a fight. Barris, why don’t you choose the subject for us, please?»

The Mirialan smiled dreamily,

«We’re gonna talk about flowers and birds in the sky.» she happily said, but Anakin shaked his head,

«No, that’s sounds boring. Why don’t we let Ahsoka choose the subject?» looking at his young Padawan, «Snips?»

Ahsoka drew her breath slowly,

«Allright. But only if you’all listen to what I have to say.»

«Of course, Snips.» Anakin nodded.

«Okay. Since it’s my talkshow, and you’re doing this for me, I wanna talk about my sister whom I just found out that I had, and whom I just met for the first time, yesterday.»

Anakin got a worried look in his eyes,

«There’s no turning you from that thoughts, isn’t it?»

«No. Why should I forget someone I just met who is my sister?»

Anakin sighed,

«Alright then, Snips. What is so special about your sister? Wich isn’t real by the way.»

«Hey.» Ahsoka shouted angrily.

«Allright.» Obi-Wan tuned in, « If Ahsoka wanna have her imagination, we’re letting her having it. We’re not ruining it for her.»

The Togruta stared confused down at the ground. It was like if the other Jedi were mocking her. Mocking her for who she was, not truly believing her.

Anakin clapped his hands in front of her face «Come on, now, Snips.» he said impatient,

«You’re free to talk about the product of your own imagination.»

Ahsoka rolled her eyes at him,

«Shut up, Master.» she burst out with, before lowering her sight angrily at the ground,

«Hey. You do not talk to me like that.» Anakin scowled, «I demand it. You show some respect.»

«Please, everyone.» it came from Barris who had been silent until now, «This is supposed to be a good time for Ahsoka, let’s not ruin it.»

«You already did.» Tano said, raising up from the ground, «I’m out of here.» turning to leave. Anakin grabbed her arm,

«Oh, Snips. Don’t be such a baby. Sit down, please.»

The Togruta angrily looked at him as she slowly drew her breath, and slowly went down to sit again,

«My sister is a Sith.» she burst out with, «And I’m trying to get your help. If only you would listen to me, and not take me for a joke.»

Barris laid a hand on her arm,

«We’re here for you, friend.»

Anakin was looking completely the other way, not paying attention to what his Padawan just said, and Obi-Wan were struggling to hold in a laughte, that just became to much for him that he just let it out.

«A Sith? Well that’s a good one, Ahsoka. That’s a good one indeed.»

The Togruta got white in her face, before turning red,

«That’s enough.» she quickly got up on her feet, walking hastily away, «I can’t believe any of you…»

Anakin also got up, walking after her,

«Padawan…»

«No… leave me alone… you’re all treating me like a joke…»

Complications

Skywalker were holding Tanos hand in his own two. The glowed, mechanical one, laying gently on top of hers.

The Padawan only looked down while he was speaking with The Doctor. She had lost a discussion with him, and there were no point to argue any further. She didn’t want to upset him any more. But at least, he didn’t seem upset now. Only worried. Worried for her. And Ahsoka understood why he was. After her twin-sister had been pretending to be her, attacking the whole city, Skywalker had all the reason to be worried. He didn’t know she had a sister, and neither did she, until lately. But that didn’t change the fact that Skywalker believed the sister was her.

«Any suggestions, Doctor?» he asked.

«I can’t find anything wrong with her, but after what you explained, I suppose she has some sort of mental breakdown.»

«Is it bad?»

«Well… I will recommend that she gets a lot of rest. No more training-sessions or war-activity for her for a while.»

«And for how long?»

«A month at least.»

«That’s a very long time for a Jedi.»

«Yeah. But you have to be patience on this, Skywalker. And you to, Tano.»

Ahsoka just sat there silent with tears in her eyes. If it wasen’t for her sister, she wouldn’t had to sit here, having this conversation right now. Or for the most part, listening to a conversation, wich was what she did.

Skywalker looked at her,

«You sure you don’t remember anything, Snips?» He asked, one final time.

She raised her gaze, looking back at her Master, confused,

«I’ve already told you, but you wont listen to me. If only you…»

He broke her off, «That’s enough.» before looking back at the doctor again who gave him a datapad with instructions,

«There’ll be no leaving the temple.» he stated, «Make sure she follows this rules, and keep constant watch over her.»

«But the temple is not a prison. I can’t keep her here against her will. I can’t do that to her.»

«A month is all I ask for, Skywalker. If she is to get any better, she needs completely rest. She needs stability.»

«I’m not that bad.» Ahsoka protested, finaly raising up, «I just can’t understand why you can’t believe me when I said I didn’t do any of those things in the security-video. It was my sister.»

«Shut up, Snips.» Anakin scowled, also raising up, nodding at the doctor, «We’re gonna do as you say, Sir.»

«Good. And then I will see you after a month. And want your full report.»

«Allright. Bye, bye, then.»

«Goodbye Skywalker. And may you recover well, Padawan Tano.»

Ahsoka answered by just rolling her eyes as Skywalker led her out the door with a hand on her back,

«I’m not sick.» she snorted as the door closed behind them.

Skywalker itched his back,

«Clearly someone did something to you, Snips. A spell or something… wich is why you don’t remember… If the Sith eyes should appear again, and you loose your senses…

«No.» she shouted, « I’m perfectly fine Master. Stop talking like that. If only you knew the truth like I do…»

«I only wants what’s best for you, Snips.» he said as they walked down the corridor.

«Well. I wants what’s best for me to. But sometimes I know it best my self.»

«Not always, my Padawan. Wich is why I’m here for you.»

Ahsoka rolled her eyes again,

«I’m gonna find Barris.»

«Good idea. She’s in the garden, by the way.»

She didn’t answer him, as she hurried away from him to the nearest exist that led out to the garden.

Finaly outside, she found her friend sitting under a tree, reading a book.»

«Barris.» she greeted her.

The Mirialan looked up from her reading, a smile on her face,

«Ahsoka. Come, sit down.»

Tano did as she suggested, sitting down next to her by the tree.

Barris expression grew serious as she studied her,

«I heard what happened. People are talking, Ahsoka. A lot.»

«I can’t understand why everyone blame me… I didn’t do anything…»

«Maybe that is why they are talking.»

«So you believe me?»

«Why shouldn’t I? I’m your friend, Ahsoka. I’m always here for you.»

The words put a little smile on Tanos face,

«Thanks. I wanna be there for you to, Barris.» She stared out over the garden, and saw Skywalker and Kenobi coming out of the backdoor. Skywalker walking with confident with his arms over his chest, as he was discussing something with his old Master.

«When I find my sister again.» Ahsoka continued, «I’m gonna confront her for what she did.»

Barris drew her breath,

«Why don’t you just let it go? It’s not like it is your problem.»

Ahsoka nodded,

«You’re right. She’s the one who has the problem. Not me.»

«You have to forgive her, my friend. Revenge is not the Jedi way.»

Ahsoka grew silent, staring in front of her.

«Just don’t let her actions poison your mind.» Barris continued, «You can’t do anything to it, you can’t save her. Just let it go.»

Ahsoka nodded silently as a tear streamed down her cheek,

«You’re right, Barris. You’re right.» she looked up to see Obi-Wan and Anakin standing there in front of them,

«Hi, girls.» Anakin said with his confident smile, «Obi-Wan and me have been talking, and have decided to make a talkshow. Just for you, Snips. What’d you say to that.»

Ahsoka got up, on her feet, along with Barris,

«I think that’ll be great. Thank’s Master.»

«You’re most welcome.» he gently answered.

A mysterious sister

«Anakin always thinking with his lightsaber.» as Obi-Wan used to say.

Ahsoka sighed, as she slowly looked down into her blue milk, letting the thought pass away.

Anakin was to intense to her, his teaching were to intense, and sometimes she even feared for her life when she faced off against his brutal lightsaber style.

She neaded a break now, from him, from the order itself. He must not find her, not for now. She was exausted, wich was why she was sitting in a club, at a table, drinking blue milk with her hood down. No one must regognize her, no one must even know she was here.

Maybe people were searcing for her after she ran away from the training session with her Master yesterday? But no one must find her.

As she listened to the music and the ones who were singing on the stage, another hooded Togruta-figure came by, and sat down at her table,

«Padawan Tano? Isn’t it?» the Togruta girl asked.

Ahsoka raised her eyebrow,

«How do you know about me?»

«I’m your sister.» the girl bursted out with, «Twin sister actually. I have been searcing for you for a long time. We got separated by birth.»

Ahsoka was silent for a moment, as she was prossesing the information, before she said,

«I don’t have any sister. You are mistaken. Because if I did, I would had known. I would have felt it in the force.»

«The force dosen’t work that way.»

«Yes it does.»

The another Togruta girl raised up from the table,

«I haven’t been searcing for you so long, only to be rejected.»

«But you are not my sister.»

«I’m gonna go teach you a lesson, and you are gonna pay for what you said.»

«Please. Even if you’re not my sister, it dosen’t mean we can’t be friends.»

«Forget it.» she went away to the middle of the room, climbed up on a table, and casted her robe of to the ground. Ahsoka gasped when she saw how likewise she was, like a copy of herself.

The Togruta on the table, stared out on the crowd, before igniting her red, glowing blades,

«My name is Darth Soka.» she yelled out, «I’m the Padawan of Anakin Skywalker, but I have turned to Maul.»

Everyone at the club, turned to face her, and the music stopped.

Ahsoka reach silently for her blades, but then resisted, should she really reveal herself so that people knew that she was here? She was in hiding after all.

«Now you are all gonna suffer.» Darth Soka said, before she began striking lightning bolts everywhere. People in the room ran to hide under tables and behind curtains, and someone made it out of the building.

Darth Soka continued to strike lightning, and when she stopped, some security-clones hurried forward and surrounded her with their blasters,

«Stand down, Padawan. Stand down.»

Ahsoka decided she had seen enough. She to casted off her robe and ignited her two lightsabers. A green and a yellow one. A few surprised looks where cast in her direction, but it was Darth Soka who had all the attention. Was that girl trying to steal her identity? Who did she think she was? Was she that jealous of her?

«No one can defeat me.» Darth Soka said in a dark tone, before casting down a gasbomb on the floor. The room were filled with smoke and people began harking, and someone held their breath. Ahsoka was looking around for the girl but couldn’t see her anywhere.

When the smoke cleared, she saw that the Togruta girl where gone. She sighed, before turning her sabers off, and reaching for her robe to pick it up.

But then, the clones spotted her. And they hurried all forward and surrounded her, with their blasters pointed in her direction,

«You are under arrest, Padawan Tano.»

Ahsoka held up her hands in confusion,

«Wait. I can explain.» but a stunning bolt knocked her unconscious.

 

When she woke up later, she found herself in a cell. She immediately got up on her feet, alarmed. She saw Master Skywalker on the other side of the bars, walking back and forth, clearly confused. When he saw the she was awake, he stopped and starred at her.

His face where mixed with unbellief, grief and sadness. He looked a little bit angry to,

«I can not believe this, Ahsoka.» he yelled at her, « Attacking citizens? Joining Maul?»

«It… It wasen’t me Master. It… was someone else.»

Anakin snorted,

«It was clearly you, Snips. I have seen the security video, and the clones told me everything.»

«I…» She looked down, « I suppose I have a sister I didn’t know off.»

Anakin looked strangely on her,

«You don’t have any sister, Ahsoka.»

«I’m not sure… She looked like me… I saw the whole thing to, from my table…»

«Then why didn’t you do anything?»

«I… I couldn’t… I…»

Anakin shaked his head,

«I don’t know what to believe, Ahsoka. But clearly you are staying here for the night, untill I have solved this matter, and found out what to do with you.» He then started to walk away, not even looking at her.

Ahsoka reached out with her hand through the bars,

«Master wait. Master…»

But he disappeared, leaving her there alone, and the room turned dark.

Incorrect

«Incorrect.»

«No… Master… please… stop…»

But Anakin wouldn’t listen to her at all, as he howled his glowing lightsaber against her. Barely letting her block it with her own.

«Incorrect, Ahsoka.» he repeated, «Incorrect.» as he swinged with his Djem So form.

«This isn’t you, Master.» the Padawan protested, « Snap out of it.»

Anakin shaked his head,

«This is more me than ever, Snips.» he said as his blue eyes turned yellow, «And you lack conviction.»

«Master…» she was pushed towards the wall, with nowhere to escape as he made ready for to make one final blow with his lightsaber, wich might have been deadly if Ahsoka hadn’t managed to push him back with the force, screaming,

«Stop.»

But Anakin wasn’t stopping. He marched towards her, with his lightsaber ignited in his hand,

«I’m teaching you to handle The Sith, Ahsoka.» He explained, «And to do that, you have to face the dark side.»

The padawan shaked her head, only wanting to cry,

«It seems more like you are trying to kill me.» she sobbed.

«Incorrect.» he reached her, making ready for a strike, but Ahsoka managed to open the door, and escape from him.

And as she runned down the corridor, she cast quick glances over her shoulder, and saw him marching in her direction,

«You can’t escape from me.» his apperance looked terrifying.

But longer down the corridor, he got stopped by some other Jedi. Ahsoka then got away, and disappeared around the corner, so Anakin lost sight off her.

He drew his breath slowly, turning his lightsaber off, as he listened to Obi-Wans voice,

«Anakin. What kind of teaching is this? Chasing your Padawan this way?»

Anakin looked slowly up at him, his eyes turning to his normally blue collour.

«It’s just a practice, Master.» he said calmly, «I’m preparing her.»

Obi-Wan raised his eyebrow,

«Preparing her? For what, Anakin?»

«If she’s going to face The Sith, she have to know them. To know their every move. Because if one should have victory, they have to know their enemy.»

Obi-Wan shaked his head,

«You aren’t making any sense, Anakin.» he said upset, «Now give me one reason to not report this to the council.»

«You know me, Master.» he said, «My teachings may be kind of rough, but they’re working.»

«So they’re working now?»

«Yeah. And if you exuse me. I gotta find my Padawan.»

Obi-Wan snorted,

«Perhaps I’ll report you then.» he said as Anakin walked off.

«We both know you wont do that, Master.» he said with a smile, «I’m the chosen one after all. And can do anything I want.»

«I don’t think your Padawan see it that way.»

«We’ll se about that. Now I’m going to congratulate her.»

Princess Ahsoka

Ahsoka wakes up as a princess. She do not know what happened, but here she is, 15 years old, lying in a pink princess bed, deep inside a castle, in a huge bedroom.

She looks around herself, wondering what may have’d happened. Didn’t she be a Jedi-padawan at the temple? She remembered yesterday, batteling along with her Master on the battlefield, so how in the galaxy did she end up here? Had someone broked the timeline or something? Which she had heard many stories of. That someone went back in time, changed one or two things before they got back again, to a very different future than they had known before.

But no one of the other would haved noticed that? They wouldn’t had known the sudden change in the timeline? For they, all would be normal, because they was just living their life, as they always had. It wouldn’t sudden change for them, or even if it did, they wouldn’t notice.

Tano shaked her head and put her hand to her face. What was she thinking? This didn’t make any sense of all. Here she was a princess in her castle. She had never been a Jedi, it all must just had been a dream. A very long one, because it was what was happening now, that was the reality and the truth. Whatever she had been imagening, was not true.

She stepped out of bed, and stretched herself, before she walked to stand by the mirror on the wall. The blue nightgown she wheared, was beatiful to her red skin, and she still had her padawan-braid hanging from her head, so maybe she was a Padawan after all, but to whom? Anakin? Why would he teach a princess? If he even existed in this time-period.
She put her hand up to her forehead again, and shaked her head, oh, what was she thinking? This was very stupid of her.

She walked out of the bedroom, walking down some beatiful stairs, having changed to some ordinary clothes, of course the clothes a princess would wear. As she reached the bottom, she saw Master Plo Koon walking by,

«Hi, little Soka.» he greeted,

Ahsoka raised her hand and greeted him back,
«Oh, hello Master Plo. You know what’s happening?»

He stared strangely on her,
«Nothing different than the ordinary.» he replied.

Ahsoka nodded, feeling kind of stupid,
«Yeah. Of course. I do know that.» she hurried off, towards an empty room, and closed the door shut behind her, she needed to think, to meditate.

She drew her breath and closed her eyes, and as she was doing so, she heard music, and a soft breeze blewed on her face.

She opened her eyes again, still in the room, the music coming louder. She began to swing along to it, wondering who were playing and where it came from.

But as she took a pirouette after piroutte, feeling like a ballerina, and jumping high in the air, splitting her feet as she flew to the other side of the room, and landing on the floor on a pointed foot, she heard a familiar voice,

«Very good, Snips.»

Ahsoka stopped up, and in shock, she collapsed on the floor before slowly raising up, turning to face him wide-eyed,

«M-Master?» she stood still, and it was if her heart had stopped for a moment.

«It’s very good.» he repeated, walking towards her away from the wall were he had stood leaning, «But I got to teach you a lesson.»

«W-what?» she stammered, wondering how long he had been standing there, surprised to even see him here at all.

But Anakin had nothing of the same thoughts as she had. He just ignited his lightsaber and striked it towards her. She immediately responded by igniting her own, as adrenaline ran through her body, and blocked his strike.

A smile lightened up his face, but the padawan nearly struggled to keep up with the defenses,

«Let’s see if you can keep up with this.» he bursted out, swinging his lightsaber into an impressive Djem So, before he striked at her again, full power, knocking one of her sabers out of her hand,

«You gotta do better than that, Snips.» He said, almost mocking her,

«I-I… I can’t keep up with you.» she shouted out as she got pushed backwards.

«Yes you can.» he shouted out, «I sense that you’re distracted. You need to focus, Ahsoka.»

«I can’t.» and in that moment it was just like that Anakin broke through all her defenses, knocking the second blade out of her hand, and she fell to the floor.

«You can do everything you decide your self for.» he said, clearly dissapointed.»

«I’m sorry, master.»

«Now, it looks like you lost, Padawan.» holding Her saber along with his in a cross to her throat,

«I…»

Anakin turned the sabers of, giving her her own back,

«Come on. Let’s do it again, we’re not giving up.»

«Please Master.» she shaked her head desperately as she raised up, «Not more lectures. Please. I can’t do it anymore.»

«Incorrect.» And so he striked at her again. And now he was even more brutal than before.

Hondo and a rescue (Fanfiction)

Hondo. Was a thief and a bandit.

He had taken me away. Away from what I knew. Now I was inside his building, and my family was far away.

I had been here for two days now. And I haven’t gotten anything to eat. I was just so hungry. I was starving. Not only for food, but for relationship. I wanted a friend to talk to, because I became so lonely in this abandoned pirate cell.

A voice wake me up from my dreamy sleep,

«Hagar.» it was Ohnakas voice, and I heard his footsteps nearing the cell. «Are you awake my dear?» he came close to the bars, and I stood up on my feet.

«Two Jedi are here.» he smiled, «And I was thinking that I could sell you for a worthy price.» He locked up the door with the key, and two other pirates came in and grabbed me by my arms, one on each side of me, and they led me out.

«You’re gonna sell me?» My eyes was focused on Hondo, «Why? I want to go home. I want to see my family.»

Hondo laughed at me,

«Oh my dear. A pirate never return a prisoner back where it came from. We only sell it away.» harsh laughing.

I lowered my gaze, and looked down at my feet, as they led me through the corridor.

«But I must say you’re lucky.» Hondo continued, «At least there are good people who maybe wants to buy you.»

I looked at him in disbelief,

«Why would Jedi ever want to buy me?»

Hondo laid a finger over my lips,

«Hush. Hush my dear. We are here now. We are here.»

I saw the Jedi sitting with a table in the main area with their drinks. And the pirates led me towards them. I saw that one of them where a Togruta species, at my own age, and the other one where a dark-haired young man in dark robes. And his left hand where covered with a hansk. And as I wondered why he was only covering only one hand, the pirates placed my in front of them.

«See here are a fine piece of my collection.» Hondo said proud, «She comes with this force-powers, wich makes her extra valuable. And she will make a fine service to you in the Republic, but you’l maybe should tame her first, if you’re gonna deal with her. If she runs away, don’t come to me and beg for another girl.»

The young man took a deep breath, looked down at his hands, and then back up at Hondo, he didn’t even look at me,

«Why do you think I want a girl?»

The Togruta looked sharply on the pirate-king,

«What have you done now, Hondo? Have you kidnapped this poor creature?»

«This is bussiness.» Ohnaka stated, «Do you want her or not? She can be free, it is only up to you. If you are not to buy anything, then I’ll say bye, bye. And this one is going back to the cell. Or maybe you’ll like to end up as prisoners your self?»

A saddened feeling flowed up in me, and I turned around to look at Hondo,

«You can’t keep me here.» I protested.

«Oh Hush hush hush my dear. Everything is gonna be just fine.» he stroke my cheek, «Just fine.»

In that moment, I just wanted to back away from him, but the two other pirates held me fast.

The Jedi at the table raised up, and I saw something like lightning appear in the young mans eyes,

«Save your trouble, Hondo.» He said angrily, «Here are some Republic-credits. Now give me the girl.» He slammed a pile of them on the table, wich The Pirate-King immediately embraced.

The two other pirates released me, they pushed me forward, and I fell at the feet of the Jedi-Knight. I looked up at him in fear as I stumbled back.

«Forgive me, sir.»

«It’s okay.» he said calmly, «What’s your name?»

«Hagar.» I replied.
