My Clone Wars Stories Episode 29: Geonosian Pursuit

Characters: Gizor Delso, Poggle The Lesser, Geonosian Warriors, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, Dexter Jettster, Hermione Baghwa, Phindar Soldiers.

Narration: Freed! Lord Poggle The Lesser, was freed by his native Geonosians, before the Republic could give him a trial! Now, JedI Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu, look for information on where Poggle could be headed!”

Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu walk through streets on Coruscant. Mace has no idea where they are going, and turns to Obi-Wan and asks “So, where exactly are we going?” and Obi-Wan replies “To a friend of mine, he is usually good for information, and he runs a diner, so we can eat there”. Mace grumbles, “Great. So while we’re eating, Poggle gets further and further away, fantastic” and Obi-Wan replies “You’re starting to sound like Anakin” as he enters Dexter’s Diner. Mace mumbles “Hmmm” as he follows Obi-Wan inside.

As soon as Obi-Wan and Mace enter, a young woman who works at the Diner comes up to them and asks “The usual, Obi-Wan?” and Obi-Wan replies “No thanks Hermione, I just need a chat with Dexter, a table would do so we can talk”. Hermione Baghwa says “Your wish is my command” and she goes off to fetch Dexter. Obi-Wan and Mace sit down, and are shortly joined by a big man, who cries out “Obi!” and he and Obi-Wan hug, or rather, the big man gives Obi-Wan a bone-crunching hug. Obi-Wan relieves himself from the man’s grip, and says “It’s good to see you Dex, may I talk with you?” and Dexter replies “Certainly” before joining Obi-Wan and Mace at the table. Hermione Baghwa soon comes and sits down with them. Dexter asks “So, what is it you are needing Obi-Wan?”. Obi-Wan considers, before saying “Recently, a prisoner of ours, Poggle The Lesser escaped captivity, we know he cannot return to Geonosis, so can you think of any other planets, where they might conceal him”. Dexter frowns and says “There is a possibility they might hide him on Phindar. Ever since the death of that Osi Sobeck, they have been getting ever closer to the Separatists”. Hermione adds “If you do go there, be careful! The Phindar are ruthless, sadistic people!” and Obi-Wan replies “Yes, I noticed that a lot with the late Sobeck”. Obi-Wan and Mace then leave, to get a JedI Shuttle and head for Phindar.

The T-6 JedI Shuttle arrives on Phindar. Obi-Wan and Mace leave, but before they can get more than a few yards away from the ship, a thermal detonator is chucked their way, Mace yells “Look out!” and he and Obi-Wan dive on the ground, to avoid the explosion, as their shuttle is blown to smithereens! They look up again to find several Phindar heading their way, blasters drawn. Obi-Wan and Mace activate their lightsabers, and chop up the Phindar Soldiers blasters. Mace says “We don’t want to hurt you, we just want information on where Poggle The Lesser is!”. One of the Phindar says “He is here. On the other side of this Mountain”. One of the other Phindar is furious at him for not keeping the secret in, and roars angrily, “Can you not keep your mouth shut?! Before drawing out another blaster and executing his fellow Phindar. As the Phindar falls, Obi-Wan and Mace head off for the Mountains.

Obi-Wan and Mace make it over the Mountains. They see nothing, until Mace spots something in the distance, and, nudging Obi-Wan, says, “Look!” and a Geonosian star ship can be seeing flying off to another part of the planet. Obi-Wan says “I guess that confirms where he is then” and Mace replies “Indeed, we should rest here though, get some strength back”. Obi-Wan and Mace Windu sit down to rest as the story ends!
