HI! Yep I'm back. We didn't get to go to Sea World on Tuesday :( Oh well... instead we decided to use the money to go to the oldest son of a family friend's wedding. He's graduating from the Air Force Academy soon and then he's getting married on the 19th to his high school sweetheart. We're not letting anyone know that we're coming to the wedding so when we get there it will be a huge surprise. We're leaving the Thursday night before that Saturday on the plane to Corpus Christi and then we'll probably go to a friends house for the night before we see our all our friends and go to the wedding. On Monday we went to a memorial day picknic put on by our church so I was too busy that day to work on this chapter but I did work on it Tuesday and Yesterday – finishing it late that night. As you can see I finished typing it up and put it up on Fanfiction today. Anyway... here is the chapter.
Review:
Snowfire the Kitsune: Ya I do wish Episode III was coming out this year but oh well... I did have fun with my friend – we stuck up a ton of pictures on my walls and I'm lovin' it.
Vorquellyn: Thanks for reviewing. Here are a few clarifications as to why I put a few things the way I did;
1. (Why did Jango Fett marry a Jedi?) well it was the only thing I could think of that would give Yoda any real reason to actually listen to Kida and allow her the possibility of becoming a true Jedi (her mother being a jedi) and I wanted to connect her with someone fairly well known who already in the saga.
2. (What was so special about Kida's mother that Yoda would help Kida without knowing much about her?) maybe you could have read the small explanation I gave near the beginning of the story about who Kida's mother was. If her mother had been Yoda's old padawan then maybe he would know enough about Mitaka's character and strength in the force that he would be willing to pay attention to Kida and what she had come to him about.
3. you might be wondering about Kida's eyes – this is something a friend of mine came up with and I'll try to explain the reasoning behind this; remember when Ani asked Padmé if she was an angel when they first met? Well my friend and I made up that to figure out if you were an angel there would be two things (three if you count the combination of them both) that would give it away. The first would be if along with stronger than average connection to the force, you had a thick accent then you'd be an angel (kina corny in some ways but so what). And the second would be if you had the unusual eyes (the inside ring of color nearest to the pupil would be your mother's eye color – or your mother's mother's eye color if your mom has the angel eyes – the outside ring furthest from your pupils would be your father's eye
color, and the middle ring would be usually a brown color with gold specks in it.). the third would be if you have both the eyes and accent.
4. Yes she is stronger than Yoda in the force – she is actually just about as strong as Anakin in the force but it's a different type of connection. Her connection is more of the mental manifestation where as Ani's is more of the physical manifestation of the force. Where she can see the will of and the future through the force, Ani could kill someone buy thinking it and he can't truly see even the more immediate
future. This doesn't mean that Kida can't do or be anything more that a prophetess – hardly, she could probably do as much damage physically as Anakin could – she just doesn't use that ability unless absolutely needed.
5. Ya is quite beautiful, if she's an angel than shouldn't she be?
6. Thanks for telling me the real spelling of Luke's sister's name. But just for my own sanity I'll continue to spell it as Leah instead of Leia because I have a friend whose name is spelled that way so it will be easier to remember.
7. The author's notes will be during the story if I feel like you wouldn't understand things/situations if I left them to the end. Anyway... thanks for the input and I hope this quite lengthy explanation helped you to understand a few things.Chapter 5

A few days later, Kida landed her ship on Naboo, where she got off and headed to where Padmé is living. When she arrived at Padm's home she was greeted by C-3PO. As the gold-colored droid watched as she got out of her vehicle she smiled warmly and said, "Hello C-3PO, how is Padmé?" C-3PO bowed as best he could and said, "Hello. She is fine. Who may I say is calling?" As Kida walked to the home she replied, "Tell her that a friend named Kida Horato is here to see her." The droid bowed and went inside while Kida waited outside. A few minutes later C-3PO returned and gestured her inside. As he was doing so he said, "Come on in miss; Padmé is waiting inside."
"Thank you." Kida replied, when she entered the house. She followed the droid to a small living room where Padmé and Anakin were sitting on a couch, talking. As she walked into the room they stopped talking and turn to her. A small smile of recognition showed on Anakin's face while on Padm's face there was a bright smile. Kida bowed to them as she in turn smiled at them.
As they nodded their heads in response she said, "Hello Padmé, Anakin how are you doing?" Padmé then responded saying, "Hello Kida, we're doing fine thank you. How are you doing?" with that, Kida smiled tentatively while saying, "I'm fine. Umm... Padmé, can I talk to you alone?" Padmé nodded and turned to Anakin, who was looking at Kida inquisitively, and said, "Sure. Anakin, can you go get some fish for dinner?" Anakin turned to Padmé as she addressed him and after she did so he nodded with a smile and said, "Sure I'd love to. I'll see you two ladies later."
After he left Kida and Padmé headed to Padm's bedroom. After they entered the room Kida said, "Padmé there's something you need to know." Padmé looked at her questioningly as she sat down on her bed and asked, "What is it?" Kida smiled and spoke as she also sat down on the bed, saying, "Soon you will become a mother, but Anakin must never know or it could be the undoing of the future if he did. It won't be long before Anakin is seduced by the dark side of the force and when he is he will become a Sith named Darth Vader. He will be feared throughout the galaxies. He will also be second in power to a Sith lord named Sidious. Sidious will be known as Emperor Palpatine." When she mentioned who Sidious was, Padmé gasped in surprise.
Kida just looked at her sadly and said, "Yes Padmé, Palpatine is a Sith lord. If he were to know that Anakin had any children, he would destroy them in order to prevent his downfall. Padmé, this must never happen." After she finished speaking, Padmé looked off into space and spoke a bit worriedly saying, "But Kida, what can I do. If I'm going to have children won't he find out when my pregnancy starts to show?"
Kida patted Padm's shoulder assuringly and said, "Don't worry Padmé, I've already talked to Obi-wan Kenobi about it. When you start showing, he is going to keep Anakin away from you till you have your children and they are hidden from Anakin and Palpatine. When your children are born, your son, Luke, will stay with you till he's weaned and then he will go and live on Tatooine with Owen and Beru 'till he's old enough to be told who his father is.
"Your daughter, Leah will stay with you 'till you die but Bail Organa will adopt her as his own to protect her during that time. I will also be there when you give birth. After Luke is weaned, Obi-wan will take him to Tatooine where Ben will live in hiding from the Sith as a hermit. From then I will keep watch from the shadows but when the time comes I will make myself known to your children and tell them what they'll need to hear."
Padmé sighed in relief as she said, "That's good to know. Thank you for all you're doing for my children, and me Kida. It's a comfort to know that you will be watching over them, even if it's from the shadows." Kida smiled and said, "What I do is for the galaxies and your family, Padmé. But I will keep most of my time devoted to taking care of your children. I wish you well, Padmé but I need to go now. As a Jedi, I have many duties."
They both then rose from the bed and headed to the front door. As they reached the door, Padmé said, "Thanks again, Kida. I wish you well too and I'm sorry that you can't stay for dinner. Good-bye and good luck." Kida turned to Padmé as she exited the house replying, "Thank you and good- bye... for now." She then proceeded to leave Naboo to find her father's parents, whom she had never met.
