Chapter Three -Packing for the Undertaken
Rushing back to his padawan's room, Obi-Wan Kenobi opened the door without knocking. After getting scolded by Anakin, as he irretupted his holopad research, Obi-Wan sat down and began telling his padawan about the mission. They discussed the upcoming danger the two Jedi Masters warned them about, and what can a secret weapon be.
"I don't know Master, I find all these worrying pointless!" Anakin yawned and stretched on his bed, "When do we leave?"
"In an hour. Pack yourself everything. Meet you in the entrance, will you?" His Master stood up and walked out, closing the door behind himself.
Anakin got up from his bed and began to pack up. He had no idea how long they'll be staying on that planet, Dagobah, so he packed only the very necessary things.
In the other end of the corridor, Obi-Wan was standing in his own room, surrounded by all the things he will possibly need. Extra robes, first aid kit in case Anakin does something silly, comlimk so he can be in touch with the Jedi Council, holopad with charger, since Anakin will surely need that...
Feeling like if he was going on a longer mission, Obi-Wan carried out his quite heavy luggage. He had to pull it all over to the exit of The Temple where he was supposed to meet his padawan. But of course Skywalker wasn't there yet.
Anakin was in fact, telling Senator Amidala that he will be offline on Spacebook due to this mission. Padmé have not yet answered when he turned the holopad off and put it in his luggage -without a charger. Throwing in some extra robes and a toy spaceship, Anakin Skywalker was ready.
The padawan opened his door and picked up his luggage. The corridor was all silent now since no Jedi Masters were in except for Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Windu. Happy thoughts went through Anakin's mind; soon, he'll be out of here, doing some serious missions at last! He was extremely tired of being told how young he is to face with serious challenges, dangerous enemies, so when Obi-Wan told him they'll leave the Temple and investigate something that troubles even Yoda, he was finally proud.
And the best thing is, that he will be with his Master, who will be able to witness all his great skills. Anakin decided to prove Obi-Wan that he is absolutely ready to become a Jedi Master and the Council is wrong. And once he becomes one of them, he can set up missions, control others, gain power, show everyone what is it to be the Chosen One!
Thought like those filled up the padawan's mind as he reached the exit of the temple. Obi-Wan was waiting for him there, along with a clone.
"Anakin, you're late." Obi-Wan welcomed him.
"Sorry, had to throw away that pizza slice you stepped on." Skywalker said.
"That's an understatement." His Master sighed, "Meet Alpha, the clone soldier! He'll join us in the mission!" He pointed on the soldier standing there. Anakin nodded as an approval, then turned towards the ship, "Let's go then!"
The three of them got onboard, and Anakin sat down on the piloting seat. He was a professional pilot, he could fly and lead fleets without hesitation. He even earned the best pilot name in the Jedi Council, which he was proud of. For him, it was no question who will fly the ship to Dagobah.
Although, just as he sat down, Alpha, the clone appeared, "I believe I should fly this ship!" He argued. Anakin raised an eyebrow, "Actually, I am in command, clone. And I command you to leave piloting to me!" He said sharply.
"But normally, clones fly ships!" Alpha striked back. "Jedi don't do that!"
"Well guess what, I will fly this piece of metal today!" Anakin said angrily. "So sit back, and prepare for whatever you need to do!"
"Fine. I still think it's better if-"
"Leave, Alpha! A command is a command!" The padawan totally lost his temper. He watched as the soldier left, then turned back to the piloting seat. "What a clone!"
