Padmé felt heat rush to her face.
"He's not my boyfriend." She said coldly. "Anakin is a Jedi assigned to protect me at the the behest of the Chancellor." She explained.
"A bodyguard?" her mother said, startled. "It must be serious."
"Maybe not." Anakin said, speaking up for the first time. "We are pretty sure that as long as she stays away from the Capital she will be safe from harm. My Master is investigating the matter as we speak. He should be following the troublemakers as he speak."

Jobal Nabarrie was a practical woman. She knew that her youngest child was probably in more danger then she thought she was. However the words of the young Jedi Knight soothed the worst of her fears.
Sola had embarrassed the poor man with her comment. His face was redder then crimson flower.
"Do you need a place to stay for the night?" she asked, curious. The young Jedi looked at Padmé with a curious look. "We were planning on trying to get to the Lake House before it gets too late." Padmé said at last.
"Then let's eat before you go." Jobal said, rising from her chair.

A frown formed on Obi-Wan's face when his fighter came out of hyperspace in the Kamino System. The planet was there alright it was just that for the life of him he couldn't figure out why anyone would erase it from the Archives.
A moment later he was contacted and upon informing them that he was a Jedi Knight he was immediately given clearance to land in the capital city of the planet.
Heading to the coordinates that he had received he plunged into the clouds and into pelting rain. It didn't take him long to find the city and land. He opened the canopy of his fighter and hurried for the entrance into the building that the landing platform was attached to.
As he entered the building a tall white skinned alien approached him. "We were beginning to think that you weren't coming." The alien, a female if the voice was anything to go by said in greeting. "I'm expected?" Obi-Wan asked, curious and confused. "Of course." The alien female replied.
"Please follow me; I'll take you to the Prime Minister." She said as she started to walk away.
Obi-Wan followed after her. The walls of the building were a sterile white.
Finally they reached an open room where another tall alien waited. "Minister Lama Su, this is Jedi Master-" The female began, pausing for Obi-Wan to provide a name which Obi-Wan was more than happy to give. "Obi-Wan Kenobi."
"Pleased to meet you." Lama Su began. "You will be pleased to hear that we are on schedule." He paused, waiting for Obi-Wan to say something. "That's good news." Obi-Wan decided to say; it was safer. "We have several hundred thousand units ready with over a million more well on the way." Lama Su reported.
Units? Obi-Wan wondered.
"Please inform Master Sifo-Dyas that his order will be filled on time." The Prime Minister continued.
Obi-Wan blinked. He couldn't have heard the name he thought he heard.
"I'm sorry but did you say Master Sifo-Dyas?" he asked the Kaminoan Prime Minister. "Yes, I did. He still is a leading member of your order is he not?" Lama Su asked. "I am sorry to report that Master Sifo-Dyas joined the Force about ten years ago." Obi-Wan informed him.
"Oh," Lama Su replied. "I am sorry to her that. I am sure that if he had lived he would be pleased with the army that we created for the Republic."
Only the control that Obi-Wan had developed over the years kept the look of shock from his face and body.
Suddenly he found himself wishing that Anakin was there to offer his opinion on what was going on.
"I am sure that you are eager to see our progress so that you can report to the Jedi Council." Lama Su said, standing.
