Well, I'm still feeling exhilarated by the new ideas Jedi Kenobi's remarks opened my mind up to. But at the same time, I realize that they will have to wait until someone has time to work with them. Right now we are speeding through hyperspace from Tatooine to Coruscant.
That's right–Master Jinn won his bet! And the boy who won it for him is on the ship with us. He's very cute and he's obviously sweet on Padmé. I wonder how he'll react if he ever finds out she's really a Queen.
As I passed the central chamber just now, (and just happened to pause outside the doorway for a few minutes) I saw Padmé covering him with a blanket. After she watched the holo from Governor Bibble. Okay, so I know technically that could be called spying or something, but I am supposed to be her bodyguard. Just because she's disguised as a Handmaiden doesn't mean I shouldn't be keeping an eye on her while Eirtaé watches over Sabé. And once I saw her sit down beside Anakin (Anakin Skywalker is the boy's full name. I think his last name is cool, and it will be really cool if he becomes a pilot, which I guess he already is, seeing as how he just won the pod race that saved us from an eternity in the desert. Okay, Rabé, shut up and stop rambling and get back to business...) I went on my way back to our quarters. Even then I was nervous. I'm not used to not being with Padmé or knowing that one of the others is with her
And after what happened when Master Jinn brought the boy back to the shuttle, I'm feeling especially nervous. Which reminds me that I forgot to write about what happened when Master Jinn brought the boy back to the shuttle. Quite simply, he was attacked by some kind of strange warrior, dressed in black robes (In the desert! He must have been sweltering!) and wielding a lightsaber. I don't know much about Jedi and such things, but I have a feeling there's something very serious going on here.
And I don't want to leave Padmé alone for even a few minutes. Even on a ship in hyperspace, with no chance anyone could sneak on board, and even after it's been thoroughly searched. I just have this uneasy feeling that things are happening that nobody realizes and that are out of everyone's control.
And that I better do a very good job of my job protecting the Queen.
Why am I still sitting here? I'm going to find Padmé!
