Thanks for the reviews. I'm glad everyone is enjoying the story.
Chapter 7
"So, you have failed" said the Emperor.
Guinevere hung her head and said, "Yes, I have."
The Emperor walked across the room to stand in front of Guinevere who was kneeling down.
"I told you what would happen to you if you failed me, didn't I?"
"Yes, sir, you did."
"But yet you still failed. Did you think that I was joking?"
"No, sir, I did not."
"Why did you fail then?"
"I did not fail on purpose, sir. The Jedi Council became suspicious of me and my motives for being there."
"Ha! That is not where you failed, you naïve little bitch! You failed with Kenobi. He does not want to be with a woman like you, he said."
"I know that, sir, but I cannot change what I have already done. He won't love me because of what I have done and who I was."
"Was? You mean, who you are."
"Are?"
The Emperor smiled a wicked smiled and walked across the room to his chair.
"Yes, my dear, are. You will not be killed for this."
Guinevere raised her head and said, "I won't?"
"No. In fact, I need you now more than ever."
"You do?"
"Yes, now will you please get off of the floor. Come here and sit next to me."
Guinevere did as she was told and sat down next to the Emperor.
"Curious as to why you are so important to me?"
"Yes, sir, I am."
"I need you to train a new Sith recruiter."
Guinevere raised her eyebrows in surprise. "Umm, you are mad at me, right?"
"Oh yes, I am extremely angry with you. No need to do something unnecessary, however, like terminating your pathetic life."
"So, you're keeping me alive just because you want me to break in a new recruiter?"
"Sort of. This recruiter is special. She will be Kenobi's Achilles heal."
"Huh?"
The Emperor sighed and said, "Why must I always tell you every single detail?!"
"I'm sorry….."
"Please, shut up. I don't feel like hearing your voice anymore. Just listen you stupid git. This new recruiter has the Force within her. She's extremely beautiful, very manipulative, and she knows how to get a job done, unlike someone else that I know."
Guinevere rolled her eyes and said, "Yeah, and?"
"And she's going to get Kenobi to fall in love with her."
"If Obi-Wan knows that she is a Sith recruiter, he'll feel the same way for her as he does for me. He may fall in love with her, but he'll never let a relationship develop."
"That is why Kenobi will never know that she is a recruiter. As we speak, she is at the Jedi Temple, applying for a Healer job. Apparently, one of the Healers passed away, so they have an opening."
"Does she know how to heal?"
"Yes, you idiot! She's very good with the Force."
Guinevere cleared her throat and said, "Okay, I may be an idiot because I still don't see why you need me."
"I kind of figured you wouldn't know where this was leading to. So, let me explain it to you like you are a child. You know Kenobi and you know what he likes, dislikes, his hopes, dreams and all of that other meaningless crap. What you need to do is fill in the new recruiter of all of this so her and Kenobi can hit it off and develop a relationship. Understand?"
"Yes, I see. You want me to help her get close to Obi-Wan by telling her about Obi-Wan so she can get in on his good side."
"Very good. You wouldn't happen to have a problem with this, would you?"
Guinevere's eyes went wide as she said, "No, why would I have a problem?"
"Oh, I don't know. Maybe because I sense that you fell just as hard for Kenobi as he fell for you."
Guinevere laughed and said, "Oh no. I don't care for Obi at all."
"Obi? No, of course, you don't. It is going to take some time for this girl to get through to him, given the fact that you totally mashed his heart, but she'll be able to. I have faith in her."
"Okay, well, if that is all, I'm going back to my room to get settled."
Guinevere started to walk towards the door when she felt invisible hands at her neck, slightly choking her. In her mind, she heard the Emperor's voice, "Oh no you don't. I said I wouldn't kill you, but I never said I wouldn't punish you."
Okay, that's it for this chapter. I know they're kind of short, but like I said before, I know how this is going to end so I'll be updating more and more often. Thanks for reading.
