Chapter I
She is Alived
A Hapes Nova battle cruiser was flying towards… can you guess? Of course it was flying towards Hapes you dumb excuse for a droid. No I'm not pretending that droids are inferior in any way it's just that you are rather dumb. But that is not the main interest in the story so be quiet C3PO and let me tell the story exactly how it happened. The communication was opened and a message sent, "Open the planetary shield to Hapes Nova 456 type battle cruiser 21 we have an urgent meeting at the royal palace." On the ground the answer came back, "We copy and will do as you have requested. You are at least half an hour too late and we can hope the Queen Mother won't have you executed." The men smiled, under other Queen Mothers this was a possibility, but with Tenel Ka this was unlikely. They landed on the palace's private spaceport. This was normally reserved to emergencies. They ran out of the ship and towards the Hapes High Council. They entered just as Ducha Hutta said, "Why should we wait any longer? You may be the Queen Mother Tenel Ka but I insist that you treat us with a minimum of respect." Tenel Ka replied, "Sit down Ducha Hutta! I remember well your father Ducha Galney's treason." Ducha Hutta was about to respond when the men leading a young girl entered. "The girl as you have requested." The Queen smiled, "Good. Nobles of the Hapes Consortium let me present Princess Allana the same that was reported dead some years ago." The nobles were for the most part stunned. "How do we know it's her?" Ducha Hutta said, "It could be a mourning mother's trick." The Queen said, "Allana! Present the proof." Allana pulled out the famed ring and pressing a button and an image appeared with a Hapes ship in the famous location. "This ring was given to me by my mother to give to the next Queen of the Hapes Consortium. I took this ring and with it the throne. I have given it to my daughter to prove to one and all that she is my daughter and my heir." Ducha Hutta then replied, "How do we know you didn't stage the whole thing?" The Queen's eyes flashed fire, "I will bring the final and greatest proof. It is possible if you know both parents to predict what kind of genes the child will have. I am the mother of this child and I will reveal the secret of a lifetime the girl's father is Jacen Solo. See if it be not so. If it is she is my heir and if not then I am mad and am to be removed from power." Isaldor de Hapes replied, "I shall examine the child's genes myself. Does anyone wish to accompany me?" The outspoken Ducha Hutta replied, "I wish to." And so these two great noblemen went out to a nearby room taking with them a hair from the Queen, a hair from Allana and a hair from Jacen Solo (preserved in a book as is the case with all who visit the palace even for a moment.) that they may assert whether or not this be the Princess of Hapes. They returned to the room and Isaldor de Hapes did bend the knee. At this most of the nobility knelt but some withstood themselves. Ducha Hutta declared, "I do declare this maiden to be of no noble blood and therefore not worthy of our allegiance." The Queen said, "Would you call my daughter of no noble blood?" The tone of her voice had a slight air to it. Most of the rest of the noblemen rose and knelt on hearing this. "I would as I would call a half Dathomir witch of no noble blood." Allana declared, "Who will not kneel let them say their names." Three or four names where declared. The names were unfortunately not forgotten.
