Legend of the Jedi Princess 2: A Skywalker-Jinn Miracle

Starting School

Days went by and things were looking better at the palace. Crosshair was finally getting along with his horse Maybelle, and they'd finally gotten to the step of riding.

Maybelle trotted around the corral with Crosshair on her back as he practiced hitting targets while she ran at different speeds.

"Great shots, Crosshair." Maybelle said. "I'd say yer fit as a fiddle when it comes to hitting targets whether they be the ones moving or ya'll."

Crosshair cracked a smile and pet Maybelle on the side of her neck, her favorite spot to be stroked.

"Good girl, Maybelle." said the Batcher.

"Yeehaw!" Wrecker shouted as he rode Pinto at the speed of a bullet in the form of a racehorse.

The speed blew Maybelle's hat off her head and messed up her mane.

Maybelle sighed. "I swear, if my little brother does that one more time I'm gonna hogtie him to a rock."

"Wrecker might just lift it and rush on him again." Crosshair pointed out.

"Not if I lassoed his rider first."

Meanwhile, Boba was practicing his water powers in a lake near the palace.

Boba was having a lot of fun being a merman and doing all kinds of tricks with the water, swimming around and even making the water move and take shapes that let him swim through the air as though it were the ocean.

And sometimes, he would use his tail to splash someone who came by just to mess around.

"Boba?" Gabby called, coming by the lake. "Big Brother?"

But the little girl didn't see her brother hiding behind a rock, and he splashed some water on her, making the girl scream in surprise and shock from the cold water. And when her legs got wet, it made her turn into a mermaid.

"Gotcha!" Boba laughed.

Gabby turned her tail back into legs and said, "You are so dead, Boba!"

And Gabby ran and cannonballed into the water and started chasing her brother around in the water, making some bubbles appear under the water, and the two splashed each other above the water too.

Boba grabbed Gabby as they were playing Tag and started tickling her, the girl laughing like crazy.

"Boba! Stop it!" Gabby begged.

But Boba didn't stop.

"You know you don't want me to." Boba laughed, blowing a raspberry on Gabby's stomach, making her laugh even more.

"There you two are." Anakin said, coming to the lake. "I've been looking for you."

"Hi, Dad." Boba said, letting his sister down.

"Did you both forget about our supply run today?" Anakin said. "You're starting school next week, and we need to make sure you're all prepared."

"Oh, yeah. I completely forgot about that." Boba said.

Boba quickly got himself out of the water and squeezed the excess liquid from his hair.

Gabby did the same, but used her wind magic to blow dry hers and Boba's hair.

Anakin, Caroline, Kara, and Carmine brought the kids to the store, where there was a big sale going on for back-to-school supplies.

"Alright kids, you've got your lists." Carmine said. "Now, it's not gonna be easy. Shopping for school supplies is a battlefield. There's all kinds of tricks stores try to pull like selling you cheap items for high prices and hiding all the good stuff behind trendy styles."
