Prologue
There was once a young mutant. The mutant was a Jedi Knight of the Galactic Republic, and her name was Serena Naberrie. Ten years after protecting her cousin, Padmé Amidala of Naboo, she returned to Coruscant and was reunited with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, two of her old friends. But she would soon learn that Obi-Wan was more than a friend to her. But would he ever learn the same?
Serena was not the only mutant to be a Jedi. She had an entire region of mutants, known as the X-Men, standing beside her, with Professor Charles Xavier as the leader of them all. Under his orders, Serena and the other mutants stayed unknown to most of the galaxy, ready for the moment when the X-Men would be unleashed against the Sith.
After orders from the Jedi Council, Anakin would guard Padmé on Naboo, and Obi-Wan and Serena would journey to Kamino. Little did they realize how much the plot was going to thicken.

FLASHBACK
That evening, everyone was enjoying the banquet in the Naboo palace, where there was dancing, feasting, and games. Serena had already danced many dances with lots of young men, and now she was exceedingly tired. She rested back in her chair and watched everyone enjoy themselves. When someone cleared his throat, she glanced up to see Obi-Wan smiling down at her. "Would you mind if I asked you to dance, Jedi Naberrie?" he said, exaggerating the word 'Jedi'.
She laughed and replied, "I do believe you're the last young man to ask me that, Jedi Kenobi."
His eyes twinkled. "It appears so," he said. He then held out a hand as the music started again. "Shall we?"
She smiled and took his hand, letting him lead her out onto the floor. After they danced, they both walked out to a quiet spot in the gardens. Serena sighed happily, and picked a petal off of a nearby flower.
"Your cousin might catch you ruining her gardens, Serena," Obi-Wan joked, his eyes twinkling merrily in the dark of the evening.
She made a face. "Well then I'd have to go run off and hide from her wrath," she replied, tossing the petal away.
Obi-Wan nodded, and she suddenly became serious. "Obi-Wan..." she started, turning back to him, "When do you think we'll see each other again?"
He sighed and rubbed his face. "Time will tell, my friend," he replied sadly, "I will be training Anakin, and you will be exploring the galaxy. Force knows where we'll be." He looked at her. "But I won't forget about you, if that's what you're worried about," he promised, gazing at her intensely.
She smiled a little. "Yeah, I was," she said. "Thanks, Ben. You're a good friend."
He looked at her and said nothing, but slowly came closer to her and took her hands in his larger ones. He looked down at them, and then back up to her face. "Do you remember what Qui-Gon said, before he died?" he questioned softly.
She nodded. "Yes," she replied softly, "He said that the Force willed us to be together."
He gazed at her. "Do you believe that, Serena?" he said quietly, his face close to hers.
END FLASHBACK
Serena and Obi-Wan's relationship would grow. But would the Council allow it? And would Obi-Wan be willing to break the Code to be with her?
Anakin and Padmé also had a relationship, but Anakin was willing to break the Code to be with his love. Padmé, on the other hand, wasn't sure of how she felt, and did not want Anakin to give his future up for her. But deep in her heart, she knew that she loved him, too.
FLASHBACK
"It's a pleasure to see you again, M'Lady," Obi-Wan said, taking his hand in hers and shaking it.
"It has been far too long Master Kenobi," Padme replied, smiling at her old friend. "I'm so glad our paths have crossed again..." Her thoughts went to Serena at that moment.
"As I am as well," he replied.
Padme stared at Anakin. "Annie? My goodness, you've grown," she said, surprised and startled. They looked at each other for a long moment.
"So have you... grown more beautiful, I mean..." he said, trying to think of what to say, "well for a Senator, I mean."
Obi-Wan looked disapprovingly at his apprentice, but Padme laughed and shook her head. "It is wonderful to see you again, Anakin. I'm glad you're back."
Anakin blushed at this, and he looked down.
END FLASHBACK
Obi-Wan soon realized that since Serena did not follow the same code as he, being a mutant, she had many suitors wishing for her hand. One of these, he guessed, was Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, who had noticed her when she had arrived. Obi-Wan didn't know why, but he felt jealous. Serena would have nothing to do with Palpatine, though, and wished that Obi-Wan would feel the same way as she.
Now, Obi-Wan and Serena are flying to Kamino to try and find the Bounty Hunter, and Anakin and Padmé are going to Naboo. The story begins here.
Serena's powers are: Being able to copy any mutant's powers, and has the same adamantium body and claws as Lady Deathstrike. She can also create forcefields and become invisible, and use the magnetic field around her to control metal. Her codename is Invisible Girl.
So the Journey begins... In a Galaxy Far, Far Away...
