Beyond - Legends I Want to be Your Knight (Ben, Jysella, Seha - post-LotF) - Chapter 38 - 07/08/09

Seems like there should be something more behind this. That almost seemed too easy.

Well, that was pretty easy... I have the strangest feeling it's not over.

 

Great teamwork with those three!!! Glad they got Koo too.

 

great as always thanks for the pm

 

Wow, this is a really good story! I just barely stumbled upon it this morning and couldn't stop reading until I had finished. If you're still doing a PM list, could you add me too, please?
Thank you

 

On the surface it does seem easy. But this is Kidan we're talking about--nothing is ever that easy.

 

Vadey looks up.

Waits for other shoe to drop.

 

True, that. You seem to be developing a bit of a reputation, Kidan!

 

I don't see anything being simple in this story, least of all this kidnapping case (but of course, that is why I love this story). Sorry for lurking for a while! Great chapter, like always.

now, now... sometimes things may be simple, just as a break for our heroes thanks for reading!

 

After a long, uneventful ride, we were separated and pushed into interrogation cells. Mine was a moderately sized room, with a one-way transparent window, a large metal table bolted onto the floor and two plastic, non-conform chairs.

It was as unappealing room as possible, one designed to affront the sensibilities as wide of a range of beings as possible.

I could feel the girls' Force presences. Their emotions were cold, black stains on the Force. A mixture of anger, frustration and impatience. They worried me a bit, but after a wait of two hours, I was less concerned about them, and more about what was going to happen. As the door opened, I brought my focus back to the here and now.

The being that entered through the door was another Chadra-fan. The diminutive alien laid a datapad onto the desk, as well as a folder thick with flimsiplast documents. He looked at his datapad for a moment, before focusing on me.

"Well, Mr. Skywalker, it seems that you have a problem."

I arched an eyebrow at that. As far as I was aware, I didn't have any problems at all. "And how do I have a problem?"

"Well, first there's the breaking and entering at the academy, the destruction of private property, and accosting Administrator Koo. Oh, yes, and I can't forget the counterfeit identifications."

I chuckled. "Now I know you're just reaching. I don't carry any counterfeit identities."

"So you're Ben Whitesun?"

"No, I am Ben Skywalker, but that doesn't make those identities counterfeit."

I felt a twinge in the Force from Seha, and looked off to my right where I could feel her presence. My danger sense suddenly shifted into overdrive.

"We'll see," the interrogator replied, as he consulted his notes again. "Tell me again, why you accosted Administrator Koo?"

i sighed, and leaned back slightly in my chair. I knew he knew all of this. I also knew that he was hoping that my story would change. "He was using them as navigation computers in order that he could find that legendary treasure that the school's founder had hidden."

"See, this is what I don't understand. Why wouldn't he just use his ship's navicomp?"

I laughed. "If you're trying to trick me, you've got to work harder than that. As planetary security you should be aware that all Navicomps are required to record the destinations that they travel to."

I fought to keep a frown off my face as Seha's Force presence twinged again.

"That's interesting, as the Investigators noticed that yours lacks that particular feature."

"And I'm sure that you noticed I have an Official Variance signed off by both the Director of Intelligence and the Jedi. Order."

The Chadra-fan grunted and opened up the folder as that twinge in the Force shifted to an inferno.

I focused on the interrogator, knowing that whatever was coming, was nearly here. "So, tell me why you're protecting Administrator Koo's abuse of those two girls?"

The Chadra-fan immediately started sputtering. "I-I resent the impli-"

"Enough!" I interrupted, as I pushed back in my chair.

The Chadra-fan's eyes widened at my sudden movement. Just as a blast of red plasma erupted through the one-way transparisteel slashing through where I had just been.

I felt a feral grin come to my face. "You resent the implications, huh?"

The Chadra-fan's eyes widened, and I flicked my fingers at him, sending him tumbling against the wall. Hard enough for his body to leave an imprint.

Then the Force wailed and Seha's Force presence erupted in pain.

Growling, I reached out with the Force and grabbed the being on the far side of the mirror. The one who had taken a potshot at me. Once I had him, I pulled him to me.

The Nikto arrived on my side of the mirror unconscious and sporting a dozen wounds bleeding freely. I dropped him, and then turned my attention to the door. With another flick of the Force it was off its hinges and I was running down the hall.

I turned a corner and saw two stormtroopers of all things, in dark, reddish armor, standing at the end of the hallway by the lift. One was carrying Seha.

The other one opened up with his

 

FIRST!

See, I told you it wasn't going to be so easy.

So the conspiracy goes a little deeper than Ben guessed. I hope they can get to Seha in time... I doubt those stormtroopers are planning on escorting her back to the temple.

 

Seha I see Jysella doesn't wanna give Ben much of a break yet

 

I enjoyed the scene with the guards and the lightsaber. GOod job as always.

 

This part with the idiots and the lightsabers was soooooooo funny!!! I can totally imagine a couple idiot guys playing with some lightsabers, thinking it's way cool, and then chopping something off. (Who am I kidding? If I ever got a hold of a lightsaber, I would probably be the one to cut something off myself!! )

 

Haha. Poor Ben. Jys doesn't believe in giving him a break, apparently. Not that she doesn't have a good reason...

KT

 

sliced off leg lol

thanks for the pm

 

Loved it! I can't wait for the next update.

 

I swear, Ben could find trouble if he was the only person on a moon rock for thousands of miles. *shakes head*. I'm finally caught up and let me tell you this story just keeps getting better and better! I'm waiting for the girls to kick his butt sometime in the near future too. Just because they can! Excellent job my friend!

 

I haven't been on here for forever..
And when I do, I find many pms!!
Now I have to go back and check them all....
Wow, when I first read that I was thinking "that was way too easy"...
But of course, now it gets complicated!!
Ben and Jys are still fighting...I can't wait for more one them, too!!
Thanks for all the pms!!
Can't wait for more!!

picks it up and dusts it off any hope for more?

 

Will it improve our odds if I help with the dusting?

 

it might help continues to dust
