Previously: The Senate has just had a meeting. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine led the
meeting, and the Jedi spoke about their concerns for the Sith. Palpatine decided to put it on the
backburner and not to do anything about it at the time.
"This
is good, real good information. I have
included a code to something. 12734…you
can receive the message…you will know how…"
After Palpatine came back, he dismissed the
meeting. Now, an hour later, Darth
Sidious sits in that same room that he did in episode 2. He pushes a button, then presses the
following sequence: 25468 then hits
enter, then presses the down arrow key, then the simple #2. A light flashes on the contraption and a
recording comes on.
"While I did not
find exactly what you were looking for, I did come across something very
interesting. I hope that you are not
displeased with this. It has to do with
Queen Amidala."
Sidious pauses the recording.
"Amidala of
Naboo…"
then un-pauses
it.
"It appears as
if she is the princess of the Republic, the heir to the throne. Contact me for more details."
Sidious says, "Interesting…interesting. I suppose I'd better contact Arawn…"
And so he does.
"Arawn? What is this about Amidala?"
Arawn says, "Well, on searching for the
information…elected Queen Amidala of Naboo is the daughter of Tim and Sally
Jedi, the king & queen of the Republic."
"That's nice, Arawn, but the Royal family
holds little interest for me…they have no ruling power, or say in most of what
goes on within the Republic."
"Yes, master, but what if you…or I …were to
fall in love with her. You could train
your children to become Sith…and they would be quite powerful…and there is more
to this story…Amidala's real name is Samantha, and she has an identical twin
sister named Minka. She is in the
Maurder's hands as a slave. If we could
get one, or both of them to marry either of us, the children could be
trained. As princess, with the Royal
Force, they have a high level of Royal Force."
Sidious sits
back in his chair.
"Yes, I have
foreseen it. Even though the Royal
Force is a little different than the regular force, it could be done…I am under
the impression that you are already in love with one of them."
"Yes, master. They are both very good looking. Either one would do for me, I like both of them."
Sidious smiles.
"Good, do that then…and I will not get myself
involved. My tastes run along a
different line. But this would be very
good…this is better than I had anticipated. Very good, Arawn."
Arawn smiles at the praise.
"Oh, there is one other thing…when I look up
Minka, I ran across a file marked "The Device." I'm not sure what it means yet, but I'll be working on it."
"Good, good…"
"Queen
Amidala/Princess Samantha is just the right age for Arawn," he thinks. "Things are falling into place nicely…"
He had already
closed connection with Arawn…just after he said "good, good." At the same time as this, Queen Amidala is
anxiously awaiting the arrival of her father, Dalben. What Dalben had not told her is that two other people were
coming: Tim and Sally Jedi. So, when they showed up with her father, she
was surprised. She recognized them at
once, the king and queen of the Republic. But what were they doing here?
"Your majesties,
this is an honor, but I'm afraid I don't know why you're here…I…"
Tim stops
her.
"That is all
right. There is something we have been
meaning to discuss with you for a long time…but now that this business with the
Trade Federation is over…it is time. Sit down everyone, please."
They all went in
the conference room.
Tim and Sally
looked at each other, then Tim began, "You are really our daughter. Dalben here, and his wife, took you in, and
we are forever indebted to them. We had
to take you away from Coruscant because there was danger with the
Maurders. We had reason to think that
they meant you harm. It was the only
way. We planned on telling you this
when you were old enough…"
Amidala looks to
Dalben as he nods.
"In exchange we took in Gwydion and Beru,
Dalben's children."
Dalben says, "Go ahead and keep my
children. My wife died years ago, after
Gwydion had been born. I feel that they
would have happier lives if you would adopt them."
So, that is what Tim and Sally did after
some argument.
Then, they
turned to Amidala and said, "You did will with the Trade Federation. We were proud of how you handled
things. And your real name is Samantha
Amidala Jedi."
Amidala sat back and cried. She hugged both Dalben and her real
parents. She then moved back to
Coruscant. Dalben was made king of
Naboo. And that is how Amidala found
out about being true royalty. For the
next 9 years, Amidala (or Samantha) learned about her Royal family. Now, we're going to jump ahead another 9
years (the same 9 years I just said about Samantha) to the true timeframe of
Blue Waters.
Until next time!
