Obi-wan and Serene wasted no time in getting back into their starship. They had a small argument while the Jedi was fixing the coordinates on the transmitter and was starting the engines.
"I should leave you here or drop you at Coruscant. This will get more dangerous" he argued.
"Shall I remind you that you would be dead if it weren't for me? And that you wouldn't be able to chase Jango now as well" she said, anger rising inside as the ship took off.
"If we weren't in a hurry, I would drop you out myself"
"Ha, good luck trying that Kenobi"
Oh, she was angry, annoyed mostly and her using his last name was her way of showing it to him. He left out a sigh and passed a hand over his wet hair before starting the ship, taking off into the dark sky while following the signal.
"You are too stubborn for your own good"
"Heard that before. Either way, the two of us stand a better chance against Jango, liking it or not"
He muttered stuff under his breath, realising that she was right. Of course, he wouldn't admit that to her out loud; Force no or he would never hear the end of it. He didn't like how he felt, something in his guts warning him. Like Yoda had said, there was a disturbance in the fore and the last thing Obi-wan wanted; was for her to get hurt.

The trip wasn't that long, but they were already drained from fighting in the rain against Jango. They didn't exchange any other word between them and instead focused on resting their bodies while heading their way.
After a time, they spotted a red planet circled by a large asteroid field that formed rings.
"That planet is called Geonosis" Obi-wan explained to her as she moved little forward and took a good look of the planet.
"And that is Fett's ship," she said and pointed at the faint figure of the familiar ship.
"Hold on" he ordered as he increased the speed. "Have you ever used ship canon's before?"
She looked at the controls and then at the ship they were chasing. It looked like Jango had spotted them because the ship plummeted to the planet in an attempt to shake them off their tail.
"It's never too late to learn," she said and grabbed the controls.
Obi-wan looked at her from the tip of his azure eyes, not feeling confident in letting her but there was not much they could do. Jango was a good pilot and did some clever manoeuvres which made it harder for him to shoot and pilot at the same time.
He gave a nod and put his faith in her before focusing on the flight. A great space dogfight suddenly happens between their ships and theirs. As they fly in the external outer space of Geonosis, the ships flip, roll and turn at incredible speeds. They dodged, weaved and fired.
