Heeeeeeee.

Missiles!

R2 asks if she's really sure she wants to do this. It seems very illogical.

Permalink

She's pretty sure.

Permalink

Digital sigh. Missiles away.


She should probably leave now.

Permalink

She zooms in an escape-ward direction.

Permalink

And thirty seconds later, the control ship starts exploding from the inside. R2 chirps in amazement. According to the droid's readings, she seems to have hit the reactor.

Permalink

Ha!

...Also she should really get out of here.

She zips as fast as she marginally safely can, out of the exploding wreckage.

Permalink

The greatest challenge she now faces is dodging the no-longer responsive droid fighters.

Permalink

Easy, comparatively.

She sets a course back for Naboo.

Permalink

She's joined by the other pilots. It looks like everyone made it through essentially intact. The trip back is filled with congratulations.

Permalink

Heeeee.

(Still - getting back to the palace and checking on Elesse is Anakin's priority, now. She listens for updates from ground control for what's going on on the planet...)

Permalink

It's an overwhelming victory, seemingly.

No mention of the Jedi, though.

Permalink

Well, she'll just have to check on them herself.

Permalink

Elesse is waiting when she lands.

Permalink

"Are you okay?" she asks. "What happened?"

Permalink

"I am fine, as are the Queen and Obi-Wan. Master Jinn, unfortunately- the Sith killed him."

Permalink

"Oh. I'm sorry."

Permalink

"He was a good Jedi. His death is a loss."

Permalink

"Yeah. He was nice."

"Did the Sith get away?"

Permalink

"No. I killed him."

Permalink

"Good."

Permalink

"Mm." She holds out an arm for Anakin to walk beside her. "We should go see the Queen. You can tell me about your adventure."

Permalink

She makes sure R2's okay, briefly, then falls in beside Elesse, perking up a bit to talk about the fight and getting inside the control ship and blowing it up.

Permalink

Her Padawan is very talented. Good job, Padawan.

Permalink

Heeeeeeee. She has a really talented teacher!
