As they ran through the forest two STAPS began racing after them and firing missiles.

"Run faster!" Obi-Wan said to Eve. They hid behind a tree for a moment to catch their breath. As they hid there Obi-Wan put his hands on Eve's waist.

"Are you okay?" He whispered.

"Of course." She smiled, and he smiled back. Another set of STAPS seeked them out and came after them.

"Time to go!" Obi-Wan grabbed Eve's hand and they ran further into the woods. They saw Qui-Gon in the distance talking to a odd looking creature, when Qui-Gon looked up, he pushed the creature down and deflects the shots fired back blowing the STAPS up. The two padawans stopped to catch their breath.

"Yousa saved me again!" the creature said as he stood up.

"What's this?" Obi-Wan asked.

"A local. Let's go, before more droids show up." The three Jedi start to run, the creature starts runnig after them.

"Ex-squeeze me, but de mosta safest place would be GungaCity. Tis where I grew up…. Tis a hidden city!" They all stop.

"A city!" Qui-Gon asked. The creature nodded.

"Can you talk us there?" Eve asked.

"Ahhh, on second taut…. No, not really, no."

"No?" Qui-Gon asked surprisingly.

"Iss embarrissing, boot ahh... My afrai my've bean banished. My forgoten der Bosses would do terrible tings to my. Terrible tings if my goen back dare." The creature said. There was a pulsating sound in the distance.

"You hear that?" Qui-Gon asked.

"Yeah."

"That is the sound of a thousand terrible things heading this way…"

"If they find us, they will crush us, grind us into little pieces, and then blast us into oblivion!" Obi-Wan said trying not to laugh with a huge smile on his face.
"Oh! Yousa point is well said. Dis way! Hurry!"

They made their way to a swamp lake by twilight. The creature made his way into the lake.

"Wesa goen under water, okeyday?" the creature said.

The Jedi pulled out small capsules from their utility belts that turned into breathing masks. Obi-Wan grabbed Eve's hand and pulled her into the lake. When they got to the city they were brought to Boss Nass, the Gungan leader.

"Yousa cannot bees hair. Dis army of mackineeks up dare tis new weesong!" Boss Nass boomed.

"That droid army is about to attack the Naboo. We must warn them." Qui-Gon answered.

"Wesa no like da Naboo! Da Naboo tink day so smarty. Day tink day brains so big."

"Once those droids take control of the surface, they will take control of you." Obi-Wan said.

"Mesa no tink so. Dey not know of uss-en."

"You and the Naboo form a symbiont circle. What happens to one of you will affect the other. You must understand this."

"Wesa no care-n about da Naboo."

"Then speed us on our way." Qui-Gon waved his hand. He was using the Jedi mind tricks on Boss Nass.

"Wesa gonna speed yousaway."

"We could use a transport."

"Wesa give yousa una bongo. Da speedest way tooda Naboo tis goen through da core. Now go."

"Thank you for your help. We leave in peace."

The Jedi turned to leave but Qui-Gon stops and looks at Jar Jar.

"Daza setten yousa up. Goen through da planet core is bad bombin! Ahhh... any hep hair would be hot."

"Master, we're short of time." Obi-Wan whispered.

"We'll need a navigator to get us through the planet's core. This Gungan my be of help."

Qui-Gon walksback to Boss Nass.

"What is to become of Jar Jar Binks here?"

"Hisen to be pune-ished."

"I have saved his life. He owes me what you call a " . Your gods demand that his life belongs to me now."

"Binks. Yousa haveda liveplay with thisen hisen?"

"Ah-huh."
