Star Wars: Rebels of the Stars (COMPLETED/BEING EDITED)

Chapter 21: Break Out

I powered on the com for me and heard two clicks, telling me that both Climber and Trace were on.

The guards tended not to check on us during our rest time, so we were alright to talk. Since Qoy said that there were no guards near the cells, nor cameras.

"So, what's up?" I asked after a moment of silence, before Climber burst out laughing

"Just, what's up? You should tell us! We've been trapped here on this planet for...."

"Fifteen years." Trace finished.

I smiled softly, as I heard Qoy's ball bouncing rhythmically against the wall. "Well, I guess I should telling you."

"Yay! Story!" Climber joked, making Trace laugh.

"You still haven't lost your sense of humor!"

I sighed, relieved that they were just as I remembered them. "Well, where should I start?" I asked.

"Order 66," Trace answered, "How did you survive? You were only four. And not only that, but last we heard you were on freaking Coruscant where it all began."

"Yeah. I hid. Kept moving. Master Vulkri got me out."

"Any..." Climber started, before I heard boot steps echo in the hallway and shushed him.

I sat up in the bed that I have been laying in, and looker out of the cell to see a stormtroopers there.

I watched as they opened the cell, and two more came in to escort me to who knows where.

"Oi! Where are you taking her?" Qoy shouted, standing up as he gripped the bars and pressed his face through.

The guards didn't answer, as they slapped the cuffs on my wrists and lead me away.

I realized the com was still on as I heard a cough, but neither of the stormtroopers flinching.

I was forced into a room, and I hit the floor hard with my left arm, wincing. The stormtroopers got me to my feet, as a black suited figure approached me.

My vibrant green eyes widened as the Sith Lord Darth Vader stood in front of me in the dimly lit room which was silent despite his labored, mechanical breathing.

I was frozen in pure terror, not even able to shake with that fear.

Anakin was gone. It was only Vader. Only Vader.

"You are strong with the force." Vader soon spoke.

"Duh, why do you think I'm here?" I wanted to say, however couldn't form the words.

He motioned for the stormtroopers to leave us, as I stood still frozen, but was able to think again.

"So tell me. Where are the other Jedi?"

"I-I don't know...." I managed to stutter, before he force choked me, lifting me into the air.

I clawed my neck, struggling to breathe, before he dropped me to the ground. I gasped for breath, as I shook on my cuffed hands and my knees.

"I will only ask once more. Where are the Jedi? Where is Yoda? Where is Obi-Wan Kenobi?" He didn't move as he spoke.

"I don't know! I haven't seen or heard from any in years!" I coughed out, not wanting Master Vulkri or Owec or anyone else hunted.

He began to force choke me once again before a trooper entered. "Lord Vader, there is a riot amongst the prisoners."

Vader left the room as I crumpled to the floor. I coughed and shakily struggled to my feet, as I could hear shouts and some roars among the stun blaster sounds.
