Anakin was holding Leia. She looked tired and stressed out, but she wasn't crying or super scared. Anakin considered the fact that she wasn't crying or super scared a win because this was his first time dealing with her as Anakin Skywalker. He sent her a Force suggestion that it would be smart to calm down.
He said, "Leia. I know you aren't super comfortable with me. How about I find someone else to do the mind healing and I stick to physical healing. I know that you sometimes have tried all sorts of stuff to hide some of the scars and make your back feel better. I've done physical healing with the Force a bit in the Clone Wars after Obi-Wan got hurt on the battlefield and I was the only other Jedi there who knew how to do it. Obi-Wan taught me as a safety precaution."
She is very proud of what you did in the Senate. If you think you can stay calm, I'll tell you some more." Leia nodded.
Anakin said, "A friend of yours in the Imperial Senate is related to her." Thoughts ran through Leia's head like the rain poured down on the Jungle Regions of Alderaan. The Holdo girl from Gal-something who taught her skyfaring. Not likely. Kier, the Chacillan Senator. No way. The Nubian Senator, Pooja Nabberie. Can't see it working. The Courascanti Senator Stacie Fung. No way. But didn't Pooja say that she had an Auntie who was a queen and was in the Republic Senate. That would fit. But what was this Auntie's name?
Anakin said, "She says to tell you that you beat her record at getting the Double Crown Award, whatever that means. You even got the Diamonds, which she never got. She got some high level awards, though. Can you explain the awards?" Leia racked her brain for female Republic Senators from Naboo.
Leia says, "The Senate, every year had an award ceremony at the Award Ball. The Crown awards are normally awards a Senator would earn over a career. They would get 30 under 30, which was 30 best Senators under 30 years old, at the beginning of their time in the Senate, if they were lucky. I got that award both years. Then normally they would get Senators of the Year. Every year, 5 Senators got that. I got it my first year in the Senate. It was an all ages/in the Republic Senate all species award. In the Imperial Senate it was humans only. They would then get the right to wear the Double Crown award, after getting two of the three. Then as a senior Senator they would get the Career Senator award. It had 10 honorable mentions. I got it as a honorable mention for my Imperial Senate work, Junior Senator work and Alderaanian Legislature work. Gemstone bands are for honorable mentions and crowns are for full awards. I also got the Core and Inner Rim Region Award Quadruple Crowns with Diamonds, Emeralds and Rubys. I got Core/Inner Rim Crowns for: Most Diplomatic Aid Given, Most Influential Senator, Youngest and Most Fashionable. I got Core/Inner Rim Honorable Mentions, which equal to gemstone bands for: Diplomatic Mercy Missions, Best Bill and Most Passing Bills. It was all at one long ball/dinner for main awards, then Core and Inner Rim combined, then Mid Rim, then Outer Rim and Other combined. A clue that someone was getting two or more medals was that no one got handed the medals. They were all told to pick them up at the Senate Chamber the next day or two."
Anakin said, "Can you tell me some more about the Core/Inner Rim awards you got?"
Leia said, "Pooja and I, by the time around a month before the last Imperial Senate Awards Ball were the only people left with a chance of getting the Mercy Missions award. I got a bunch of good PR from being the youngest Senator and all my awards that year. Pooja beat me by 2 missions.
I remember people in the Rebellion who told me, Leia, when you came to our world, after Imperial forces damaged it, and brought us a no strings attached aid package, that saved our lives. Or a lady named Pooja brought us aid. Did you know her? Those people have remembered a mission Pooja or I did in the Imperial Senate.
I did like 60 missions in the last year of the Imperial Senate. I would say that it was split 50/50 between food and non food aid. One mission I vividly remember was Chal Hudda. I had to get them to accept some stuff they at first didn't want, that would save lives. It all worked out fine in the end. Took some negotiation with the locals. I managed to not create a diplomatic incident either. At least, my parents Bail and Breha taught me negotiation first instead of a 'What do I get to blast next?' mindset.
The best bill award was for a bill regarding trade routes. Not interesting for a non diplomat like you, I'm afraid."
Anakin said, "Your mother would love to hear about it. She wrote lots of bills. She led the opposition to the Military Creation Act."
As Anakin said those words, Leia realized that Senator Padme Amidala was the leader of that act's opposition. It all fell into place. Her mother was the famous colleague of her adopted daddy. The Senator she admired so much, that when it became time to start working on some stuff where the people had to approve, she used Senator Amidala's ideas to help promote herself for the media. The Senator that she was the virtual image of as a teen and had to try not to look like, even when she told Bail, that on peace loving Alderaan, looking like Padme might help her PR as a young Senator because of Padme's great service in the Senate at a young age and Naboo's tradition of electing young queens. So, that's why Bail looked afraid when she said that. Her mother was the great Senator Amidala. Anakin saw her brown eyes light up as she put the pieces together. That girl of his was smarter then he last remembered. From now on, he would have to be very careful.
Leia asked, "Is my mother Padme Amidala? Also known as Senator Amidala. She was once Queen Amidala and was at the first battle in the Clone Wars."
Anakin said, "Yes." He gave Leia, who has tried to sit up a bit, a hug.
Anakin said, "You can chat with your mother for a bit. But I don't want you to spend the whole night talking to her. That's why I had you spend some time with me first. You will get to see your mother in a moment."
Leia said, "Will my disappearance from the real world be noticed?"
Anakin said, "No, the portal warps time, no time elapses between you going in and out. Stay calm. You can close your eyes if you want, I'm right here. I'm not going to hurt you." He used the Force to teleport from this empty room to his home in the Netherworld.
Author's Notes: I don't think I wrote any more of this. This is probably discontinued, but who knows, maybe there one day will be an update. I wrote this story a while back, so this isn't as good as my others. This is like the second fanfic I ever wrote.
