* I have once again changed the age of Amidala, I'll correct that in the first chapter, she's now 14(TPM age), Obi's still 23, Naya's almost four. P/S: This story takes place two years before TPM. I will eventually get to TPM, but this is just stuff i need to get through before. Sorry, Obi and Qui wont meet for a couple more chapters, but don't worry, they will meet!*
"Wake up Naya." Obi said to his daughter. "We're almost there."
Naya was curled up on a sleep couch in the back compartment, a blanket over her, her hands clutching her doll to her chest. Obi gently touched her to wake her up.
"Get up sweetie."
Naya moaned, then rubbed at her eyes.
"Are we there?" she asked sleepily.
"Almost." Obi said. "You better get up quick, or maybe we'll have to go back to Gamoreo IV!"
Naya practically leaped up of bed, then followed her dad up to the cockpit.
"Can you carry me Dad, I'm tired." she asked.
"Alright." answered Obi, picking her up and balancing her on his hip.
They watched as Garen carefully and slowly brought the ship down onto Naboo.
Naya gasped. "It's so pretty Daddy!"
"This is where we're gonna live now, is that ok?" Obi asked.
Naya looked at her father as if her were crazy. "Of course it is Daddy!"
Garen smiled as he listened to the two talk together. The ship slowly descended down to Thedes,(A/N, I can't remember if that's how you spell it) towards the space port. Obi put Naya down, and told her to go get her stuff.
Once they had landed, Garen turned to Obi. "This is it, I guess. It was nice seeing you again Obi."
"Yes, it was. Oh, how much do I owe you?" asked Obi, looking around in his pockets for some money.
Garen smiled. "Don't worry about it. Just take care of yourself, and Naya, ok?"
Obi smiled back. "Thanks Garen. I won't forget this."
"You better go now. Have a good life, Obi."
"You too Garen, you too."
Obi left the cockpit, grabbing his bag on the way.
"Ready?" he asked Naya.
"Yep!" she responded enthusiastically.
Obi took her hand and they walked out into Thedes.

One week later
Obi had found them a nice apartment near the palace. It was ground level, with a little garden in front. Naya had been so happy when she had seen the garden; she really wanted to grow some flowers.
"Dad needs to find a job today, Naya." Obi said one morning.
"Can I come with you?" Naya asked.
"Yes, but you need to promise me that you'll behave, ok? Daddy's going to the palace today, to see if they need any security personnel."
Naya's eyes lit up at the mention of the palace. "The palace?" she asked excitedly.
"Yes, the palace."
"Yay!" Naya exclaimed.
Obi smiled at his daughter, then spoke. "Get your shoes on, we'll go now."
Naya hurried over to her room, grabbing her shoes and running back to the front door. She grabbed her father's hand, and together they started to walk towards the palace. Naya pointed out various things on the way, like that trees and the pretty flowers. She started to quiet down though, when they came near to the palace.
"It's so big Daddy!" Naya said in awe.
"Yes it is. Do you know who lives in there?" Obi asked his daughter.
"The queen!" Naya said, happy that she knew.
"Yes. I might see her today, so you need to be on your best behaviour, ok?"
"Ok Dad." Naya answered.
The two of them walked up the path that led to the massive palace. It looked like a fairy tale castle, where there might be dragons lurking behind it .Naya's head moved in all directions, looking at everything around her, and instantly recalling everything. Naya had been tested for midi-chlorians when she was born, and she had scored slightly higher then her father. Obi himself had one of the highest midi-chlorian counts, behind only Master Yoda. (A/N, and Anakin, but he hasn't been found yet.) Obi had wanted to send her to Coruscant to be trained, to have a better life then the one she was born into, but he had no means of getting her there. So Naya had stayed with him, possibly missing out on her destiny.
They soon reached the gates before the palace, and asked permission to come inside. They were allowed in, and Obi walked towards the throne room.
"When the Queen lets me in, you have to be quiet, ok? This is very important to Daddy, and if you're good, we can go get some ice cream after." said Obi.
"Yay! I love ice cream!" exclaimed Naya.
"Yes, but you have to be quiet, alright?"
"Alright Daddy."
They kept talking for a few minutes, Obi playing 'I, Spy' with Naya, when a guard came up to Obi.
"The Queen will see you now."
*Well, that's all for now, I might have time to write another chapter before I go camping. If I don't, the next chapter won't be for a while, because I don't know if my cousin had internet. Bye, and don't forget to R&R!*
