Chapter Text
"Where are we?" Rose asks, though a bit frantic.
"The capital." The shorter one, Maggie spoke with confidence. "Don't worry, I know my way around." Jackson, the clumsy one, as the doors open to the new world, trips and falls out of the ship as we all shake our heads. "I'm okay!" he says, like we all care. We all get off of the small spacecraft. The capital was grand, spaceships and aircrafts taking up the skies like how cars would on the streets of our world. Alien-like beings were crowding the area, walking around as ships land beside them as they probably talk about politics or whatever nonsense. Sylvia, acting confident and nonchalant, accidentally trips on their robe but dismisses it and confidentally continues walking but trips again…
We all wander the area but in a group with the other Jedi, the Jedi strided with confidence and cockiness, Rose roll her eyes at the thought like, who do they think they are? With a remote, Bee turns off and locks the spaceship like a car, making a little "cli-clook" sound. We continue to wander around as a group, until Rose was distracted she bumped into someone and fell, their skin felt like armor and iron. she screams and falls on the cement floor, scraping my knee as the figure Rose bumped into just coughs.
"Hey what the hell do y-!" Rose pauses as she looks up at the figure and was mesmerized, his face was slender and metallic, with golden eyes like the sun. His figure, tall and slender, almost reaching approximately seven feet tall, no wonder he felt so strong he was literally a droid. Four arms were hiding under a raggedy cloak as he had a hunchback-like posture.
"hubbabubba…." Rose carelessly whispers under her breath, looking into the droid general's eyes.
"…" He just stays quiet and nonchalantly tossing his cloak back.
"Hey, who do you think you are? You can't just bump into me like that and not say anything." Rose says, getting up from the ground.
"Hmph- COUGH!" he coughs
"oh my goodness are you okay???"
"None of your business, scum." his voice was metallic but sounded kind of sick. "You're speaking to the General Grievous. You should be lucky you're not dead right now."
"General…huh?" Rose says and look back at the group but they're gone. They left her there in the capital, must've thought she was still with them. Rose looks back to see that the general already was walking away
"Hey- wait up!" Rose follows the general through the crowd, as we were lost in crowd, she could tell where he is because of his body shaking with his powerful coughs and wheezes, she felt worried about him, but wondered where he is.
Rose could tell he was walking to his big ship that he parked there probably an hour ago. If it's the only way to find the others, she snuck onto his ship, being short enough to hide behind one of the crates.
Rose stifles a bashful giggle seeing the general driving his ship, his broad shoulders controlling the ship and flying it, as she holds onto the crate tightly. I mean, it's not so bad to find love while being separated, but she'll find them back soon.
The ship abruptly stops before it could fly as he coughs and gets up, storming through the back as Rose feels his steps get closer and closer before she felt a tug of hair from the top of her head…
"Ow!" Rose winces.
"What the devil? WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY SHIP? IN MY MEDICINE CRATE?!" He says enraged.
"I'm sorry! I just needed to find someone that could help me find my other friends. " said with a small blush and a tensing of the brow.
"Friends? You think I care about that?" Grevious says a bit sarcastic, "Get off my ship, you insufferable scum." He lifts me.
"Woah woah woah! Hey! Wait! I can help you if you help me! A deal you know!" Rose says, squirming.
"You think I need help? I am THE General Grevious? I've killed thousands? And you think I need your help?" He scolds her and coughs. "Yes you do! You're clearly ill. Maybe you need a little weight lifted off your shoulders, hm?" Rose suggests as he grunts, not amused. "Maybe a secretary…perhaps??" She suggests again.
"Secretary? HAH! No."
"Seriously? I just need to get home! Whatever you want I probably can do it!" she says.
"Will you stop bothering me if I agree?"
"Yes- Yes, I will."
He grunts and puts me down, scouraging through the cabinet and getting his meds, coughing as he takes them, then Grevious walks back to the cockpit and starts the ship, Rose stays in the same spot but sit on the ground as the ship starts and fly off the planet and into space.
Rose wonders, how are the others are doing?
