Throwing It Out There!
by: Unknown
"What about the escape pods?", you ask the group, shouting so that your voice is heard over the 'shoosh' of the elevator, and the cracking and breaking of the ship's infrastructure around you.
Anakin and Oni-Wan look at eachother for a moment after you consider this, as though having a telepathic conversation with one another. Your gaze shifts to the Chancellor who looks perplexed at what is happening all around him.
