TWO DAYS LATER: SPACE, J-TYPE DIPLOMATIC BARGE(1)
Anakin was sitting in the cockpit as he stared at a database. Though it looked like he was reading, he was really thinking of the senator in the refresher. He wanted to go in there and kiss her again. He loved the feeling of her lips on his, they were so soft. While he was thinking of her, she called to him.
"Ani? Ani can you come here for a minute?" she yelled to him. Anakin dropped the database and walked over to the refresher. Standing awkwardly in front of the door, he knocked.
"Padme?"
"Ani, I need you to go into my room, grab my cloths and bring them to me."
"Sure," Anakin sighed, walking to the bedroom while thinking of the senator with only a towel over her. Hurrying back to the refresher, he told her he was back.
"Thanks Ani, could you please leave them by the door?" this ruined his mood but he did as she told him. Returning to the cockpit, Anakin waited for twelve minutes (not that Anakin counted.......) before Padme entered the room. What she was wearing made him stare, a pair of black leather pants that clung to everything and a strapless black top that showed her midriff. Anakin would have jumped on her if R2 hadn't beeped at that moment.
"What R2?!" Anakin snapped shortly. The little astrodroid beeped, twirled around and rolled to the back room. There Anakin saw a breaker had broke. The Tatooine native sighed and went to work.
A WEEK LATER: TATOOINE, MOS ESPA, WATTO'S SHOP
"Achuta, Chut, chut, Watto," Anakin said as he stood in front of the alien.
"Ke Booda?" he snapped.
"Di nova, 'Chut chut'," Anakin retorted. Watto rolled his eyes and turned to the pit droids chatting it up.
"Go ana bopa," Watto hissed at the chatty droids. They compressed into a more storage-able position. Anakin then noticed his ex-master fittling with a pit droid.
"Ding mi chasa hopa," he said and took it from Watto. As Anakin began to fix it, Watto watched him in surprise and suspision.
"Ke booda? Yo baan pee hota. No wega mi condorta. Kin chasa du Jedi. No bata tu tu," Watto's eyes narrowed while Anakin turned over the droid.
"Mi boska di Shmi et Aaerie Skywalker," Realization bloomed in Watto's eyes after Anakin had said this.
"Ani? Little Ani?" Watto asked. Then the little pit droid comes back to life. "You are Ani! It's you! Ya sure sprouted! Look at you! A Jedi! Waddya know? Hey, maybe you coulda help with some deadbeats who owe me alotta money..."
"My mother and sister," Anakin said dangerously.
"Oh...Yeah, about them. Well you see I kinda sold them," Watto said and started scratching his neck nervously.
"Sold them?" Anakin's calmness scared Watto.
"Years ago. Sorry but you know, business is business. I sold them to a moisture farmer named Lars....At least i think it was Lars," Watto said and rubbed his chin, "Believe it or not but I heard he freed them and married your mother! How can you beat that?"
"Where are they?" Anakin demanded.
"Some place on the other side of Mos Eisley," Watto said, stammering because of fear.
"I'd like to know."
"Of co-ourse," Watto muttered and flew into his shop to look at his records.
LATER THAT DAY: TATOOINE, PAST ANCHORHEAD LAR'S MOISTURE FARM, DINING ROOM
"You are so annoying!" Aaerie shouted at Jase as he asked her out for the thousandth time. "No, No! NO! And incase you don't understand that then: I WILL NEVER GO OUT WITH YOU!!! EVER!!!"
"Why not? Too scared to go out with a god like me?" Jase said, smirking arrogantly.
"Ugh!" she groaned and sat down in one of the dining room chairs.
"Don't worry, an angel like you could hand me," Jase smirked and sat down next to her. Aaerie reached over and slapped him. "Ow, you got a good arm. So babe how about the nineteenth hour and we go to a holovid?"
"How about you don't call me babe and no to the holovid."
"Ok so we'll go for a little drive in my new state of the art speeder," Jase said, placing an arm around Aaerie.
"No, I am not going on a date with you!" Aaerie yanked his arm off her.
"Aaerie! Come here for a minute!" Owen yelled, saving his step-sister from Jase's annoyingness. Aaerie ran to her step-brother as fast as she could to get away from Jase as quickly as possible.
"Yes Owe- Anakin?" Aaerie started and then saw her brother standing there in all his Jedi glory.
"Hey Rie-Rie," Anakin smiled. Aaerie launched herself onto her brother and hugged him with all her might.
"I missed you," Aaerie mumbled into his chest. "Uma ji muna pateesa brother."
"Uma ji muna pateesa sister," Anakin said to his baby sister. Padme coughed uncomfortable, "Oh, you remember Padme, right?"
"Padme!" Aaerie shouted and hugged her next, softly whispering to her, "Thank you for bringing my brother back."
"You're welcome," Padme whispered back.
"Awww, thats so sweet," Shmi Skywalker said as she watched the scene unfold.
"Mom," Anakin said, smiling brightly. Shmi walked to her eldest child hugged him.
"Oh my boy, you're so handsome. I'm so proud of you Ani. My little Ani," Shmi said, running a motherly hand through his short hair.
"And then she decided that the only way she was going be able keep the mole creature(2) was to hide it," Shmi said and burst into laughter, "in her brother's bed and tell me he had come back from being a Jedi!"
"Aaerie! Shame on you!" Anakin mocked his sister. Aaerie stuck her tongue out at him. "I see you still haven't matured."
"Oh Anakin, Obi-wan has told me stories about you and your immaturity," Padme smiled.
"Ummm, none of those are true," Anakin lied.
"Sure they aren't," was Aaerie's sarcastic retort.
"I knew you would believe me!" Anakin said just as sarcastically. Aaerie rolled her eyes just as Jase entered the room with a package in his hand.
"Mrs. Lars, I have your parcel from Coruscant," he said and placed the package in front of Shmi. Before leaving, he winked at Aaerie who stuck her tongue at him for that action.
"Aaerie! We do not behave like that to guests!" Shmi scold her youngest. Aaerie rolled her eyes again this time her mother shooting her a look.
"Yes Mother," Aaerie huffed, at this Anakin snickered. "What's so funny Ani?"
"It's just that mom was telling you off for flirting."
"Flirting?! I was not flirting with that bag of bantha poodoo!" Aaerie shouted at her brother. Shmi hissed at her daughter for saying bantha poodoo.
"Na, I think you like him! Face it Rie-Rie, you got a crush on him!" Anakin said superiorly. Aaerie just wanted to smack that look off his face.
"I distinctly remember you having a crush on Padme here when you were nine. I wonder, do you still do? Cuz, it sure looks like it!" Aaerie replied with a smirk on her face. Before Anakin could continue the fight, R2D2 rolled in and beeped urgently.
"Please excuse us," Padme said politely as she dragged a reluctant Anakin with her to their ship.
"Anakin, my long range transmission has been knocked out. Retransmit this message to Coruscant," Holographic Obi-Wan began. Padme did what he had asked and a small hologram of the Jedi Council appeared near him, "I have tracked the bounty hunter, Jango Fett, to the droid foundries on Geonosis, The Trade Federation is to take taking deliveries of a droid army here and it is clear the Viceroy Gunray is behind the assassination attempts on Senator Amidala. The Commerce Guilds and Corporate Alliance have both pledged their armies to Count Dooku and are forming a….Wait!…Wait!!"
After watching Obi-Wan fight of Droidekas, Yoda and Mace Windu muttered a discussion. Padme and Anakin waited patiently for the Council to give them orders.
"Anakin, We will take care of Count Dooku. You are to protect Amidala. Protect her at all costs. That is your first priority." with that, the JedI turn off the hologram.
"So are you going to save him?" a voice said from the back of the room. Anakin and Padme turned to see Aaerie standing there.
"It is only a parsec away, we may be able to save him before the Council even lands there," Padme reasoned but Anakin shook his head.
"He might already be dead."
"Anakin! We have to try!" Padme insisted but Anakin shook his head again.
"That's it?! Where is that hero that was suppose to save the galexy? Where is that hero who was going to come back and free all us slaves one day? Where is that hero who Mom would tell me about at night? Where is that hero who would give his limbs to save someone who was like a father to them? Huh? If you sit here doing nothing, Anakin, you're not that hero and will never be," Aaerie said to him, looking at her brother shamefully.
"But Windu told me I have to stay here to protect Padme," Anakin said, bowing his head in disgrace.
"Actually he gave you strict orders to protect me," Padme said craftily, "And, I'm going to save Obi-wan. So if you want to protect me, you'll have to come along."
Anakin grinned and strapped himself in next to Padme. Aaerie sat on her other side and marveled at the technology that was well beyond what she had ever seen.
"So Rie-Rie, Mom won't mind if we take you a little earlier then planned, will she?" Anakin asked his little sister.
"What do you mean 'a little earlier then planned'?" Aaerie asked suspiciously.
"Well, Mom and I decided that you need a better education then Tatooine has to offer," Anakin began, "So, we've decided you're going to come with me to Coruscant and go to one of the finest schools in the galexy. Oh and you wouldn't mind living in Padme's royal suite, would you?"
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" Aaerie shouted and hugged her brother happily. Anakin smiled brightly at his sister's happiness.
"You're welcome."
"Aaerie you're staying on the ship with R2D2 and C3PO," Anakin said exasperated. "It's not safe for a little girl."
"Padme's going! And I'm not a little girl!"
"Padme knows how to use a blaster and she's an adult. Plus I don't think I would be able to stop her from coming."
"I know how to use a blaster! Please Ani!" Aaerie pouted.
"No! I am your brother and guardian for the time being so what I say goes! Now you're not coming and that's final!" Anakin said and rolled his eyes when Aaerie pouting and silently pleading with him. "And don't give me that pout, it's not going to work. If you step one foot out of this ship, there will be such severe consciences that you'll wish you stayed at Tatooine."
"Anakin!" Aaerie shouted in one last final plea but he had already turned his back and was out of the ship.
After what seemed like hours to Aaerie (in reality it was only about 10 minutes), she decided her brother couldn't punish her if she was worried about him. As soon as she grabbed a blaster and two vibroblades, and hid them well, the fifteen year old hurried into the droid factory with R2D2 and C3PO tailing her. It was smooth sailing until she reached the door to the actual factory. Without looking at where she was going, Aaerie fell and grabbed the attention of Jango Fett with her scream. The bounty hunter caught her, placed her blaster, (I mean Padme's blaster) safely out of her reach and was taking her to Dooku when he asked her a question:
"Who the in the Force are you?"
"Aaerie, now have you seen a JedI around here?" Aaerie huffed. Jango chuckled darkly at her.
"You mean that Skywalker scum?" he said and Aaerie glared at him.
"That's my brother you're talking about!" Aaerie hissed at him as he landed on a platform, "Only I get to insult him like that!"
"Ah so you must be Skywalker's bratty little sister," a voice belonging to a man about 50 said.
"And you must be Count Doofus!" Aaerie mocked him.
Yeah so this is probably the fastest I'll update so enjoy!
