Star Wars: If I Ever See You Again

Chapter 1: Trade Negociations

Summary: Available on 'Prologue"

Disclaimer: I DO NOT own anything related to Star Wars. I'm writing a FANfiction to hopefully please some fans and myself.

So here's chapter one, this is mostly to introduce the Trade Federation and dive deeper into the Anakin/Allygwen family bond. I hope you like it. And please, if possible review. Your opinion is important to me...

Oh and P.S: The first two chapters will be sort of boring. I'm just hoping to fill in things until Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon arrive in Tatooine.

Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi were waiting to discuss Trade Negociations with Viceroy Gunray. They were currently sitting on a large table when they heard the sound of an explosion close to where they were. They quickly sat up and ignited their lightsabers; right before they see yellowish smoke coming out of an air vent.

"Dioxis" Qui-Gon realised. They both held their breaths as battle droids circled the other side of the door.

"They must be dead by now. Destroy what's left of them" Said hologram Viceroy.

The droids opened the door just as two lightsabers were activated through the fog. The droids started shooting but the two Jedi deflected the blasters, making two droids fall on the floor. Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon started to cut the rest of the droids in half.

Just as Obi-Wan cut one droid, three more came with their guns raised and Obi used the Force to push them backwards. Qui-Gon was using his lightsaber to cut through a door to get to the Ship's Central of Command as Obi-Wan kept the droids at bay.

"Close the blast door" Commanded the Viceroy as another layer of metal was put in front of the emergency door.

"That'll hold them" He continued. Qui-Gon thrusted his lightsaber deeper, cutting through the emergency door and heating the metal one.

"They are still coming through" Pointed Nute Gunray.

"This is impossible!" Replied Viceroy.

"Where are those droidekas?" Asked Nute.

Outside the door, two droid destroyers rolled their way closer to the Jedi and raised their guns at them.

"Master, destroyers" Said Obi-Wan. Qui-Gon stopped trying to penetrate the door and came to aid Obi-Wan just as the droids turned on their blue shields and fired their weapons towards the Jedi.

"They have shield generators" Pointed Obi-Wan.

"Let's go" Said Qui-Gon as they ran to the side; droids following.

"They're no match fot the droidekas" Said Nute inside the Ship's Central of Command just as a no-eyed whiteish looking creature said in a robotic voice.

"Sir, they have gone through the ventilation shaft"

Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon came down the ventilation system and saw an army of droids preparing to embord a ship.

"Battle droids?" Asked Qui-Gon, confused.

"It's an invasion army" Answered Obi-Wan.

"This is an odd play for the Trade Federation. We've got to warm the Naboo and contact Chancellor Valorum. Let's split up. Stow abord different ships and meet down on the planet"

"You were right about one thing master. The negociations were short" Replied Obi-Wan smirking, but it ceased when Qui-Gon glared at him for such a bad joke.

Allygwen always seemed to get herself in all kinds of trouble. She was now nine when Watto had given her a beaten after she accidentally broke a functioning droid in front of a potential buyer. She was given a day off and decided to just return home; not in the mood to meet with her friends.

She arrived home with fresh tears falling upon her round, full cheeks. Her face and eyes were now red as she sat in the kitchen table. Anakin heard someone come in and went to the kitchen, thinking his mother had arrived home early from Watto's workshop; but intead saw his twin-sister sitting at the table with her head in her hands.

"Ally?" He asked softly, she sniffled. Still holding her head in her hands. Anakin was now worried "Ally? Ally? What's wrong? What happened?"

She looked at him now, her face and eyes giving away the fact that she had been crying. He was more worried than before.

"No-nothing Ani, just Watto gi-giving me a hard ti-time. It's o-okay" She answered and he looked at her sadly.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" He asked and she shook her head, no. He suddenly hugged her, she jumped a little bit, still on edge but it ceased when Anakin wrapped his arms around her. He always knew how to make her feel better and not to push her when she was like this. She wrapped her eyes around his small shoulders as a single tear rolled down her cheek. She quickly wiped it off when they parted and she smiled a sad smile.

"But anyway, why are you here and not working?"

"I broke something in the garage and Watto send me home early. You?" He asked and she smiled.

"The same but I broke it in front of a buyer" He smiled.

"I guess is in the family" He said and she giggled.

"What did he did to you?" She asked and he arched a confused eyebrow.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, did he punish you?"

"No" He answered, his eyes suddenly becoming darker "Why? Did he punish you?"

"It's nothing..."

"Ally... Answer me. Did. He. Punish. You?" He asked slowly, looking into her eyes.

"No! Yes... Maybe?" She could see Ani's knuckles turn white as she said it "Ani?" She asked softly.

"I swear..." He began, dangerously slow "As soon as we are no longer slaves, I will make him pay for every time he put his hands on you"

Ally's eyes grew wide. She was often worried with her brother. She was usually the only one who saw this side of him. The over-protective side that she was sometimes afraid of. Not for her, but to whoever decided to hurt her; even unintentionally. As slaves, they were forced to grow up faster than other kids and learn responsabilities but this was ridiculous. Anakin sounded like one of those monsters parents told their children of whenever he was like this.

"Ani..." She started, putting a gentle hand on his shoulder "It's okay. I'm okay. I can handle anything Watto throws at me" He relaxed under her touch but still looked skeptical.

"I promise, Ally. I won't ever let anything hurt you" He said seriously. She smiled and hugged him.

'If only that were true...' She thought. She knew he couldn't promise her something like that, but it's the thought that counts.

"You can't do that forever" She said, still hugging him.

"I can try..." He replied.

I suck at action scenes, I know...
