Escape

 

“Aiedail?” Hunter asked surprised.

“Sorry this all had to happen, Hunt.” Dustil said. “There’s a war coming and there is no way the Republic will survive.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Theres a war coming between the Sith and the Republic. Surprising there has already been a war, but this one was started on purpuse. You can have you’re precious Aiedail.”

“That was easy.” Hunter said to himself.

Just then, Dustil vanished.

“Aiedail!” Hunter said running to her.

She looked alot differnt from the last time he saw her. She looked like she hadn’t eaten in years and her wavy hair was more curled than ever. She wore batterd clothing and there were scratches all over her exposed arms.

“Hi, Hunter. It’s good to see you again.” Aiedail said weakly.

“Come with me, Aiedail. We’re going back to your family.”

Aiedail didn’t move. She stood there stairing at her feet. “I don’t want to go.”

“What did Dustil tell you?”

“Nothing.” Aiedail sounded ashamed. “How would my father and mother react when they see me… like this.”

“Surprised… happy.”

“I’ve been gone for so long, how did you know I was still alive?”

“I didn’t. Zoey told me she knew you, and that you were both on Malacore V when it collapsed. I fiqured you would be alive if she was alive.”

“How did you know I was here?”

“Guessed. I don’t know, I senced you would be here, or something would be here… so here I am… again.”

“I want those years back. So many years wasted.” Aiedail breathed.

“Ten. Ten years, you were gone.”

“It’s been that long.” Aiedail cried.

“Come with me, Aiedail. Let’s go.” Hunter said holding out his hand.

“You’re taking me back to my parents?”

“Yes.”

“I don’t want to go.” Aiedail said snapping her head the other way.

“Why not?”

“I don’t know. I won’t feel right being with people I havn’t seen for ten years.”

“Just come with me. I promise everything will be okay.” Hunter said motioning his hand for Aiedail to take it.

She staired at his outstreahed hand before putting hers in his. Hunter smiled.

*******

“Are you sure this is the right way out, Hunter?”

“Yeah.” Hunter said pulling Aiedail behind him.

“Did you hear that?” Aiedail said stopping.

Hunter turned around, “Hear what?”

“That noise.”

“That narrows it down to… I don’t know, everything.”

Hunter heard a thud on the suface infront of him. Hunter turned back around and saw Rotiart standing there with his red lightsaber glowing in his hands.

“I can’t let you leave, Hunter.”

“Rotiart, move!”

“Sorry, Hunter. If you were a Jedi, you would’ve probably seen this coming. Guess you wern’t as good as I believed you to be.”

“So you were on Dustil side all along?”

“Not Dustil’s side, but the Sith.”

“The Sith? Dustil is a Sith?!”

“Very good, Hunter. I thought you would have never guessed it.”

Hunter ignighted his silver lightsaber and held it up infront of him. “Move, now.”

“It’s going to take more than just that to move me.”

Hunter charged at Rotiart like a enraged lion. They’re lightsabers collide with a hiss and small sparks flying off the sabers.

“Atton! Atton, wake up!” Andria said shaking him violontly.

“What?” Atton said sitting up.

“I have a bad feeling about Aiedail and Hunter, like they’re in trouble or something.”

“You’re probably imagining it.”

“Trust me, Atton, something isn’t right.”

Atton crashed back down into his bundle of pillows and threw the blanket over his head. “Go to sleep, Andria.”

Andria pulled the blankets off him. “They are in trouble, Atton.”

“And? What are we sopose to do? We don’t know where Hunter is, or Aiedail. I’m sure Hunter can fix it.”

Andria punched his arm. “You’re acting like you don’t care!”

“Maybe I don’t!” Atton yelled at her. “I’m happy Aiedail is alive, and might come back, but what can we do? Fly out there and do what? Fix everything? Make everything go away? This is Hunter’s job. Just like Alora, you’ve already done your part.”

Andria was already in tears before he even finished. “What kind of husband, and father are you?”

“A protective one.” Atton snapped throwing the blankets back over his head.
