Chapter 2

"That maybe true, but they obey the Chancellor above all else, and surely you, like I, can sense that the dark side of the Force surrounds him," Gwen replied in a worried tone.

"Indeed, sensed this I have. It is very troubling. Be cautious, we must, if we are to return to peace," Yoda said, looking calmly at the other two.

"This idea, if trouble brews, could help us, but what about the Jedi in the temple, especially the younglings and padawans?" Mace Windu asked.

"I have an idea for that as well. There is a secret exit in the back room of the temple. If the clones do turn on the Jedi, I can get all those who dwell within the temple to the back, open the exit, and ask Senator Bail Organa to have a transport waiting. Senator Organa trusts us, more than the Chancellor ever since we promised to keep the clone wars away from Alderaan, due to it being a peaceful planet, and managed to overrule the Chancellor's intentions of having a clone army posted there."

"An excellent idea, you have young Padawan. Save many of us, this will, if against us, the clones do turn. Only one problem left, should the worst happen." Yoda replied.

"Yes, when the clones enter the temple, and find no Jedi dwelling at all, will they not start looking everywhere they can for them?" Mace Windu added.

"Not if they think they have found them and already killed them all," Gwen answered a bit smugly.

"Why, whatever do you mean, there is no way that we can all trick them into believing that they have killed the Jedi inside the temple. Not even Skywalker can use the mind trick on that many clones at once!"

"Actually master, I was thinking that we use the hollow room under the main floor in the Temple entrance, to hold lightsaber-wielding droids with image inducers so that they look like padawans and younglings. Just before we leave the temple, I activate them to target any and all clone troops that enter the temple."

"That is a brilliant idea, my young padawan. Start creating the devices and droids immediately, and I will call the Jedi currently engaged in the war to return."

"Thank you master, I will get straight to it," Gwen answered, as she raced off tho the nearest mechanical shop.
