Anuvuin: episode #39 Qui-Gon's funeral and The Parade

Part 2

Previously: Anakin blew up the Droid Control ship from the inside so the droid army was stopped. Amidala contacted Palpatine in order to tell him the good news. Palpatine reacted rather strangely, but set up an arrangement for Qui-Gon's funeral. Rune Haako and Nute Gunray were dropped off at (I started writing Imperial Security…wake up here) Republic Security. Obi-Wan went to The Council to inform them what took place. The Council has agreed to give Obi-Wan the title of Jedi Knight without facing the trials.

Majority rules, and much to Yoda's dislike, the Council has agreed to let Anakin become an apprentice.

Yoda turns to the other Council members, "Call Obi-Wan back, I will."

The other Council member leave and Yoda is the only one Obi-Wan meets with. He stops forward.

Yoda says, "Confer on you the Council does the Level of the Jedi Knight, but agree with taking this boy as your Padawan Learner, I do not."

Obi-Wan solemnly nods and then says, "but Qui-Gon believed in him. I made a promise to Qui-Gon Jinn before he died, and I intend to keep that promise. I will train him even if I have to go against the Council."

Yoda sighs.

"Great fear I sense in this boy's training, great fear. Clouded this boy's future is. Hard to see the future is, always in motion."

Obi-Wan says, "I promise that I will be careful in his training."

Yoda sighs again, "Remember your promise and stick with it. Agree the Council does. Your apprentice Skywalker will be."

Obi-Wan bows and leaves. Darth Sidious was staring into the into the night sky. He was mad.

"The bother! Now I'll have to train another apprentice. I have to teach everything all over again!"

Darth Sidious did not care about Darth Maul…he only cared that he lost an apprentice and had to train one all over again. Sidious drew back as the time of the funeral neared. One part I forgot to mention is that when they had landed on Coruscant, someone came escorting Palpatine.

"Senator Palpatine has been elected Supreme Chancellor."

Palpatine had a big smile on his face.

Amidala had said, "Congratulations on your election."

"Thank you. Together, we will bring peace and prosperity to the Republic," was his reply.

Anyway, as Supreme Chancellor, Palpatine was standing at a prime location during the funeral. There was a large bonfire going. Mace Windu was standing next to Yoda on the other side of the fire, but tin hearing range of Palpatine. Obi-wan was standing next to Mace Windu, and Anakin was on the other side of Obi-Wan. Anakin looks up at Obi-Wan.

"What's going to happen to me now that Qui-Gon is dead?"

"The Council has given me permission to train you. You will become a Jedi, I promise you that," Obi-Wan says turning to Anakin.

Yoda says, "When Sith exist, tow there usually are, a master and an apprentice."

Mace Windu says, "But which was destroyed…the master or the apprentice?"

Yoda could give no reply. Palpatine stared into the fire. Then, the next morning they all went to Naboo for the parade. All participants went parading down the street. ON the steps of the palace stood the following people: Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, Queen Amidala, Boss Nass, Anakin, Obi-Wan, and R2-D2.

Upon passing Anakin, Palpatine says, "We shall watch your career grow with great interest," as he pats Anakin on the head.

Even though the words were nice, for some reason a chill goes up Anakin's spine as he says this. Palpatine stooped to stand beside Amidala as they prepared to continue on with the next art of the ceremony. Amidala held a peace ball thing and presented it to Boss Nass.

They both held on to it as both of them say, "Peace…" then Amidala says, "from this point forward, The Gungans will always be a t peace with the Naboo. WE will live together."

R2-D2 beeped. This made Amidala smile. She smiled at Anakin, and he smiled back. One thing, before we close the story, that I neglected to mention before is something that happened with the Solo's. While Mr. Solo was holding baby Han, a robber came in and broke into the house. They attacked Mr. Solo. There was nothing he could really do about it since he was in a wheelchair. Baby Han was kidnapped and was taken to live a Smuggler's life at Jabba the Hutt's Palace on Tatooine and on his home on Nal Hutta.

The End
