Anakin, having realized his unfortunate situation, attempted to reach out and feel Obi-Wan and Ahsoka. He felt their presence some space away from him, so he reached out and grabbed them and attempted to move faster, his air running out. Eventually, they burst out of the water and climbed onto the cold, hard rock. But alas, when they emerged, things were NOT the same. "Um, master? Why do I feel so…off?" questioned Ahsoka, holding her head and groaning.
"No idea! But, wait…are we...upside down?" questioned Anakin, as they all came to the realization that they had not found the surface but the very bottom. Dread swelling up, they began searching for an escape.
"You shall find escape impossible! ," exclaimed the newly arrived spectral figure, startling the Jedi, who twirled around, lightsabers drawn.
"Who are you? Did you trap us here?" questioned a furious Anakin, the idea that someone might be keeping him from Padme angering him.
"First, I'm not telling who I am, and second, yes. I trapped you here, but only because you're intruding," explained the calm yet unnerving figure.
"Then let us go! We just want to leave!" argued Ahsoka, not seeing the futility of her pleas.
"But that's just the thing! If you know about this place, then you can't leave. I mean, do you know how expensive it is to relocate?" retorted the figure, a hint of humor in its voice.
Obi-Wan, still convinced this was a Sith temple, also voiced his opinion. "You won't win. We hold to the truth and renounce you as a lying apparition!" However, the figure only let out a large laugh.
"Is that so then? Well, then I renounce YOU as a Jedi and declare you a Sith for trespassing and attempting to dispel me!" chuckled the astral being. Then, as soon as he had said it, the Jedi found their connection to the Force blocked. They were sitting ducks...
