Hey! I rewrote the second and third scenes because they didn't seem to fit right with the story and because I had two very rude P.M.'s, but that really didn't bother so much... everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I would however be much more grateful that if or when you send me a message, that it please, please, please be written in a mature fashion. It is extremely hard to take someone seriously when they swear at you via P.M.

Thank you, enjoy!


Anakin glared at the Jedi Masters, his head still aching from earlier today. His new padawan was worse than he had imagined. She had to be the most insolent child he'd ever meet!

"Skywalker I'm sure you're blowing this out of proportion. Princess Leia Organa is a harmless seven-year-old." Plo Koon said, leaning back in his chair, fingers steepled.

"She bit me. Twice."

"Princess Organa is extremely powerful Master Skywalker, second to only yourself and Lucas."

"Master Windu I know that, but-"

"Anakin you weren't the best of padawans either."

Anakin closed his eyes, successfully blocking out the smirks of his fellow Jedi.

"I know Obi Wan. I however never verbally or physically attacked you. Pranked yes, but deliberately harmed no. It's like she's trying to protect herself against Palpatine or something."

"Much anger she has, hmm? Sense it we did not."

"She's not angry… but she's not scared either. It's some other… well something. I can't tell if it's an emotion or not, the only thing I can think of is she has some defensive dispostion."

No, I just don't like you.

Anakin flinched, as did the other Jedi. How had the Princess learned to project her thoughts already? He'd only been her new teacher for less than a standard day.

Besides Master it's fun making you mad. It's like poking a rancor in the eye and not getting injured.

Anakin looked at Master Windu's startled face, "now can we discuss moving her?"

"I vote no Anakin. You deserve Leia, you'll be best friends in no time," Obi Wan laughed, "besides how long can one survive after poking a rancor several times?"

"You know Obi Wan, it's those kind of questions that caused you to end up in the med-bay so often."


Anakin watched Leia intently while she ate with her father. He just couldn't understand how she could be so kind to everyone else but him, it was very ego-deflating, something she was very good at. She was only seven standard years old yet she was as smart as some of the Senators, and definitely smarter than most.

It was as if she had swallowed every piece of knowledge in the galaxy, but still, she was seven.

Padme was fourteen when she was queen of Naboo and you're questioning the knowlegde of a child half that age?!

Anakin shook his head and sighed; Leia was definitely a challenge, but whenever he taught her something she'd have it perfected by the end of the week. He wondered how Bail put up with his little demon of a kid.


"So how do you like your new Master Lelila?"

"I don't Papa," Leia looked at her father earnestly, "why can't you teach me, I don't like Skywalker very much..."

Bail set down his forth and glanced over at Anakin, who sat on the other side of the Senate lunch room with his wife.

"And why's that?"

"Because... it's like he's trying to be you, and no one can be you, you're you, and you're special," Leia said looking again at her father with pleading eyes, "I never get to see you... you leave before I'm awake and are home only an hour before I have to go to bed. You're my Papa, not Anakin Skywalker."

"Oh... Leia when do you get a day off?"

"I'm a padawan Papa, we don't get sick days unless were on our deathbeds."

"Hmm, how about you and I go back home in say a week, and we stay for a month on Alderaan?"

"Can we go see Mama's grave?"

"If you'd like to."

"...will you come home earlier today so we can have dinner together?"

"I don't know... President's aren't allowed sick days period."

Leia sighed and looked over at her new master, " the Skywalker guys are weird."

"And Miss Padme isn't?" Bail laughed, watching his daughter with fascination. THe thing she said sometimes...

"She's lucky I guess, in my opinion anyone with Skywalker blood has questionable sanity."

"I'll inform Padme." Since when did it become so hard not to smile?

"I love you Papa."

"I love you too Lelila."


Keep'em clean guys!
