Amidala woke up hours later with her pounding. Everything came back to her in flash. Sabe` had been taken by Darth Maul. Some of the guards were starting to wake up.

"Ohlsa, mesas head," Jar Jar said out loud, rubbing his hand against his head.

Once all of the group was standing up, Amidala started to talk. "We have to go after them." She had to save Sabe`, she had been her decoy in times of danger, and was a great friend.

"Your highness, we don't know where that leads," Captain Panaka said pointing to the wavy part of forest that didn't fit in.

"Well where ever it does, that is where we will find Sabe`," she said not giving up.

"But," he said, however she didn't give him the chance to speck. She started towards the portal.

"Mesa comin," Jar Jar said, not sure why.

"Go back to Theed and tell the Jedi what has happen," Amidala told Captain Panaka, "And that is an order."

Jar Jar and Amidala jumped into the portal, all the sounds of the forest disappeared, and there was total silence, and darkness for a few seconds. Then suddenly they jumped into an old room that looked like it had been abandoned for many years.

Jar Jar always being curious started to look around and pick things up.

"Jar Jar, I am not so sure that you should be doing that," Amidala said as he picked up a small brown bag.

"Trollas Dust," he read, and started to look inside. Being as clumsy as he was he broke open the bag which spilled across the room to both Amidala and him. Before Amidala went into darkness once again she thought 'This is not my day'.

Anakin Skywalker got off his ship 'Moon Angel' with his former Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi. The Jedi Council had informed them of a strange portal that was in one of the forests outside Theed. But that was all that they knew so far.

In the dock bay, Eirtaé waited with Luke and Leia both holding on to her hand. The twins quickly let go when they saw their father.

"Daddy," they both called out as they jumped into their father's waiting arms.

"Hello!" he said cheerfully. Then he noticed Eirtaé face. Something was wrong. "Luke, Leia I need to talk to Naboo Council. Eirtaé can you take the twin to their room just for little while?"

"Of coarse Anakin," she nodded and took the children back.

When the twins were gone Obi-Wan asked Anakin "Do you sense it too?"

"Yes, something is just not right." Anakin told him. The walked down the many hallways of Theed's Palace.

"Jedi Knight Skywalker and Kenobi we have been waiting for you," one of the guards said once the two got to the doors of the throne room. As they walked in Anakin notice that Amidala and Sabe` wouldn't there.

"Jedi Kenobi and Skywalker we are pleased to have you here in this time of crisis." Sio Bibble said as they came closer.

"What type of crisis?" Anakin asked.

"As you know there is some type portal in the one of the forest outside of Theed. When Queen Amidala, a few guards, handmaidens, and I went to check it out. Two figures came out of it. One was Darth Maul, the other was an unknown figure in a black cloak." Said Captain Panaka.

"Darth Maul?" Obi-Wan questioned.

"He was there, we don't know how, but he was. He took Sabe with him back into the portal. And then the figure shot out some type of lighting bolts that shock us all."

"Where is Amidala?" Anakin asked.

"She went after Sabe, with Jar Jar."

"What?" Anakin said in shock, "You are suppose to keep her safe." Anakin's anger had always got the best of him and he was starting to show it. "I am going after her."

"I'll go too," Obi-Wan said.

The two Jedis finally got to the forest. "The said it looks like a piece of forest that doesn't fit in" Anakin told Obi-Wan.

"There!" Obi-Wan said as he pointed to a wavy part of trees and grass.

"Let's go in," Anakin said. The two walked straight in and came into an old room, where Amidala and Jar Jar laid.

"Amidala!" cried Anakin to his wife.

"Oh Anakin," Amidala said as she woke up. She hugged her husband.

"Olsa mesa thinkas that the godas are punishing us." Jar Jar said as he also woke up.'

"What happen?" Obi-Wan asked as the two got to their feet.

"I don't know. Jar Jar spilled some pink dust and it made us go to sleep or something like that." Amidala said.

"But you are alright?" Anakin asked worriedly.

"Yeah we're fine, but I Sabe might not," she said. "Let's go!"

The four walked into many rooms searching for the lost handmaiden. Till they got to an old dining room. They were leaves on the ground and table. And there at the end of the long table was Darth Maul and Sabe.

"I have been waiting for you," he said.
