Chapter 15
" So let me guess in a way you are under house arrest." Padme put her travel bag next to the door.
" Yes and no, I call it that, but they did say that I can go anywhere in the Temple only, oh yeah and they even put a monitor on me too." Anakin went over to his work bench and picked up a spanner.
" Um, well that sounds like house arrest to me Anakin, man that sucks that they are keeping a very close watch on you." Padme went into the kitchen and poured herself a cup of tea.
" Yeah it does suck, so are you packed and when are you going to talk to Jamilia?" Anakin went back to his bed and picked up the small motor before sitting down on the bed.
" Yes am all packed and I will be leaving for Naboo in about thirty minutes, and I will not get to see Jamilia until next week, which is great because I will have quiet time to myself and of course mom has been calling me and trying to talk to me but at the moment I really do not want too, she just needs to give me a couple of weeks to do some things and healing before I will talk to her." Padme nodded to Dorme who came into the kitchen to get her some tea too.
" I understand, well I better get going because someone is at the door and my guess is Obi-Wan, I will let you know what the Council decides. I love you." Anakin used the Force and opened the door to let Obi-Wan in the room.
" Ok that sounds good, hey Obi-Wan and I love you too." Padme went into the living room and sat down on the couch and looked out the window and saw the sun rising over the lower buildings in the early dawn.
" Morning Padme I will look after Anakin for you and we will keep you inform in what is going on here, and you have a safe trip to Naboo." Obi-Wan called out as he came into the room.
" Morning Obi-Wan and thank you and you know that you are welcome to visit me here on Naboo." Padme saw a couple of ships leave from her building as the occupants were heading off to work.
" Thank you Padme that is very nice of you, well I hate to say this but Anakin has to say bye, because I am here to take him to the Council Chamber." Obi-Wan looked at Anakin who made a face.
" Ok and you guys have a great day, and please let me know the outcome." Padme took a sip of her tip.
" I will have a great day too, I hope to see you soon and I love you." Anakin put the small motor down and stood up.
" Thank you and I love you too." Padme turned off her Com-link and got up went over to the double doors.
Padme opened the double doors and walked out onto the balcony and went over to the railing and looked out over to the city, the last building that she looked at was the Jedi Temple, as the sun was now rising over it.
" Captain Typho just called, the ship is ready and he is sending some men up here so they can get the travel bags." Dorme came over to Padme and stood next to her by the railing.
" Thank you Dorme, I just wonder what the verdict will be." Padme took one more sip of her tea as she just stood there looking at the Temple.
" I do not know but am sure Anakin and Obi-Wan will let you know soon." Dorme looked at the building that Padme was staring at and she wonder what it looked like inside, that was the one place that she would have liked to see, but now she will never get too.
Padme had just finished her tea when there was a sound of someone coming outside.
" Good morning Padme the ship is ready and I have two men taking your bags to the ship now." Captain Typho came outside onto the balcony.
" Thank you Typho, well Dorme it is time to go home." Padme turned away from the railing nodded to the head of security before heading inside the apartment.
The small group got all their things together before heading out of the apartment and went down to the private landing platform and boarded the ship for Naboo.
Across the city at the Jedi Temple in the Jedi Council Chambers.
" Why does this feel like the first time I came up here and faced the Council when I was nine years old." Anakin fidget as Obi-Wan and him rode the turbo-lift up the tower.
" I remember that too, even though you said that you were not nervous or scared but I could see that you were." Obi-Wan gave a small laugh as he remembered that time too.
The lift stopped and the doors opened and the two Jedi stepped out and walked down the small hallway to the large doors.
Anakin knocked on the door and it was opened up by a Temple guard and he motion for them to come inside the room before walking out of the door and closing it behind him.
" Aw Anakin and Obi-Wan please take your seat and Young Skywalker please come to the middle of the circle." Mace Windu motion for Anakin to come to the middle of the circle.
Anakin stood there in front of the Council members but they only two that he was really focused on was Masters Mace Windu and Grand Master Yoda.
" I told everyone what I have learned when I helped you and the Senator from Naboo, so now they want to hear it from you." Master Yoda looked at Anakin and he gave the young Jedi a small smile.
" Yes Master, what Master Yoda has told you all, I broke one of the codes and I fell in love, and I even got married and the person that I am married to is Senator Amidala of Naboo and we have been married for over two and half years and it will be three years in about four months, so whatever you all decide what my fate as a Jedi will be then I will take it." Anakin looked at Masters Yoda and Windu before turning to each and every Council members and looked at them to let them know that he is humble by whatever the punishment they give him.
Then each members nodded their heads to the Grand Jedi Master then Yoda nodded back to them to let them know that he understood that they would like to have some time to think about what the young Jedi Knight just told them.
" Come back at the end of the week and we will give you our decision what to do with you, and you do not have to worry in what you told us will get out of this room, it will not and no-one will know that Senator Amidala is involve. And if there is any leak then who ever leaked it out will be punished too, do I make myself very clear." Master Yoda looked at every member that was sitting in the room.
" Yes Master." Anakin bowed his head.
" In the mean time you will be staying here and monitored like you are now." Master Windu look Anakin straight in the eyes.
" I understand and that is fine." Anakin nodded his head that he understood and that it was fine with him.
" Ok then you may go now, and see you at the end of the week call you back here we will." Master Yoda nodded to Anakin as he was dismissing the young Jedi.
Anakin bowed his head before turning on his heels and left the room.
Once Anakin left the room he felt a little hungry so he made his way down to the dining hall to have lunch.
So after lunch Anakin headed back to his quarter and worked on a few projects that he wanted to work on or even finished a few that have been waiting to be worked on.
So now all he can do is wait until the end of the week to know what is going to happen to him, and then he can let Padme know too, and he cannot wait until he sees her again.
