"Who would have guessed that we would end up here?" I said to Jen Dor
Quito, my best friend.
"You just HAD to get the tickets from a guy outside the theatre didn't you?" She said folding her arms.
"What, they were two dollars a ticket!?" I screeched.
"You don't buy movie tickets from a grifter!" Jen continued to shout at me. Well you see this is what happens when you buy Episode II tickets from a guy outside the theatre that looks exactly like Jar Jar Binks. What!? I was just looking for a good deal on tickets and suddenly I'm the bad guy!? Look this is how it all started.
*Flash Back*
Me and Jen stood in line for Episode II. Me all decked out in my padawan get-up, including the braid, ponytail, boots, lightsaber, robe, and tunic, all bought at a costume shop, and Jen in normal everyday stretch jeans, Blink-182 t-shirt, and sneakers. We wanted to get good seats for the movie and ones that were affordable at the same time. When it was our turn to get our tickets, it went down hill from there. The tickets were ten dollars each! I only had nine. Jen had zip. I sighed and walked away.
"Hey! Yousa looking for affordable tickets?" A guy that looked freakishly like Jar Jar Binks asked me.
"Yeah, you got any?"
"Yes mesa have two left." He said handing me the tickets. I thanked him and walked away.
"Hey Jen I got two tickets from another window come on!" I called grabbing her arm and running in through the snack line and into the theatre that another guy that looked strangely like one of those bugs from the planet Genosis. We sat on the best row, the middle row and started to watch the movie.
"Um. I don't mean to burst your bubble Jo, but there's no one else here." Jen whispered to me. I ignored her.
"SSSSSSHHHHHH!!!!!! Movie." I scolded her. We had gotten to the part where Chancler Palpatine was talking to a few senate members when we started to get sucked into the movie! "Now this is definitely not part of the movie!" I yelled over the air that was getting sucked in.
"When did you figure that out!?" She yelled back before she was sucked into the screen.
"JEEEEEEEEENNNN!!!!!!" I screamed after her. I let go of the seat and sailed after her into the vortex/screen.
*End Flash Back*
"Yeah so, they were cheap tickets!" I yelled back. I suddenly looked around us. I smiled sheepishly. "Uh Hi." I said. Everyone that was in the room was staring at us. Jen went really red.
"Who are you and where did you come from?" Palpatine said firmly to Jen. He turned to me and went really red and exploded. "You of all people should know to NEVER interrupt a meeting of great importance! Who is your master? I would like to have a word with them."
"I have no master. I'm not a padawan. I'm not even from this planet or even this galaxy! SO don't go harshing all on me until you know the whole story, you... you... you.. you evil sith emperor!" I yelled. Jen looked around at the astonished faces. My nostrils were flaring as I clinched my fists.
"Uh Jo just calm down before you have a cardiac arrest. Look I know we're in some fictional world, but YOU HAVE GOT TO CALM DOWN OR WE'LL BOTH END UP DEAD!!!" She screamed.
"I guess you're right." I sighed.
"Jo sometimes I think you are a blond."
"Hey! My hair is light brown! Not blond, light brown." I corrected her.
"Now that we have calmed down, who are you both?" Mace Windu asked.
"I'm Jo Den Kenob. That's Jen Dor Quito. We have no idea how we got here." I explained.
"Very well, one more thing, why are dressed as a padawan if you are not one?" He asked.
"Well you see, where we're from all of you are fictional characters in movies and books. We went to see one of the movies so I decided to dress up as a padawan." I said.
"Do a test I want you to." Yoda spoke up at last.
"I will take them to the test room." Mace said. Yoda nodded. Mace led the way to a small room. Mace sat down in a chair and motioned us to do the same. "Now I you both to hold out your arms." He commanded and we both did as we were told. He took out the test thing that Qui-gon used on Anikan in Episode I.
I winced as he tested me then Jen. He turned around and studied the screen. "Interesting, you both have the same mediclorian count as Anikan Skywalker. Jo I want you to concentrate on moving this tracer."
"Ok." I concentrated only a second and it began to move. I lifted my hand and it went up. I lowered my hand and it went down. I set it down and Mace motioned for Jen to do it to. She did the exact same thing as me. We went bugged eyed at each other. O.O yeah that one!
"It seems that you have the force with you. I've never seen this kind of thing before. Have either of you had any kind of training?"
"None at all." I answered.
"Hmm. No training. This is interesting. What about your lightsaber?" He motioned at my plastic replica.
"It's not real see." I got up and pressed the power button. Instead of the blue plastic sliding down, a bright blue beam shot out. O.O "Ok, maybe I'm wrong."
(At this time if you have the cd please play 'Once Upon a December' of the Anastasia soundtrack.)
Right then I knew that my life was missing a piece that I never knew existed. I knew that I was adopted, but I didn't know that I would later find my family here. Jen was also adopted. She too, like me, realized that we might find the missing piece of our lives in this world. "You look familiar." Mace said out of the blue. "Both of you do, but I can't just place it." I closed my eyes and soaked in this new information.
Something was going on and someone knew, but wasn't going to tell us easily. An image suddenly flashed in my head. A man about 35 with light brown hair and a beard. A voice shouted in my mind, 'Nooooo!!! Jo Den!! Keep away from her!' I gasped as I stumbled. It was the voice of the man only it was younger.
"Hey Jo! Snap out of it!" Jen yelled. I blinked and looked up to see four faces. Wait! Four, that's not right! There's only supposed to be two people in here with me not four!
"Wha-wha-what happened?" I asked looking confused at everyone.
"You gasped and fell over that's what happened." Jen said looking at me.
"I think I can sit up." I said as I sat up. "Ow. My head feels like it exploded."
"I told you not to eat that dip! It was a year old!" Jen scolded me.
"Oh well, it was good dip." I said smiling. I looked to see who else had come in. It was Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anikan Skywalker. "Hi." I said holding out my hand. Obi-Wan and Anikan smiled at each other. They each shook my hand. I got up and measured them up. "Ah dang it! Why do I always have to be short?" I am 5'4'' a very small person. Jen snorted.
"Because Jo, you're a hobbit! I've told you a million times! They're out side in the hall waiting to attack you; I saw them planning it at the theatre." She said. -.-
"You know I hate you." I said.
"I'm darn proud of it too." She smiled. I sighed and shook my head. This is going to take awhile.
"You just HAD to get the tickets from a guy outside the theatre didn't you?" She said folding her arms.
"What, they were two dollars a ticket!?" I screeched.
