Yoda, Obi-Wan, Mace and Jar Jar were sitting at the table eating breakfast that Padme had made for them. Yoda put his tiny spoon back in the bowl and indicated that he needed to get down. Mace lifted him out of his high chair and set him on the floor.

"Got to go, I have. Taking Padawans to the park, I am." he said, calling his walking stick to his outstretched hand with the Force and hobbling towards the door.

"Oh give them a kiss from messa!" Jar Jar called and Yoda nodded before leaving. Once he was gone, Jar Jar let out a long breath.

"I'm sorry youssa got caught in the middle of that. Messa didn't mean to be so out theres, but messa furious with him!"

Obi-Wan raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Wow...um, calm down." he suggested and Mace had to stiffle a giggle.

"Messa tryin, but man that guy can sure push messen buttons!"

"Why are you so mad at him?" Mace asked, composing himself again after almost chocking on his cereal.

Jar Jar shook his head. "Messa don't want to talk about it. Okey-Day?

"Well it just seems that..." Mace pressed, not satisfied with Jar Jar's answer, but Jar Jar interupted him angrily.

"Youssa wanna be on my list too? Keep talking! Has anyone seen messen list by the way?

"Um, no JJ. What's it look like?" Obi-Wan said, getting up to put his bowl in the sink.

"Uh, it's a piece of paper and it says "Yoda" on it." Jar Jar said, fumbling in his pockets. Just then the door opened and Anakin walked in, clearly depressed.

"Hey, I just got off the hologram with the Chancellor and guess what..." he paused and they all looked at him with concern.

"I GOT THE MISSION!" he yelled excitedly, jumping up and down. The other's couldn't contain their excitement.

"You got the mission? That's amazing! What mission is it?" Obi-Wan asked, as he patted Anakin's shoulder excitedly.

"I've been chosen to go to Mustafar and slaughter all those worthless separatists that are just taking up space."

"Ooh, chilling!" Jar Jar shivered, but he was grinning madly anyway and Anakin had to severely hope he didn't jump up and smother him with one of his stupid gungan hugs.

"And the best part is..." Anakin continued, turning to Obi-Wan. "I get to kill Nute Gunray! You know what that means buddy!"

"Yeah I know what that means buddy!" Obi-Wan said, equally as excited as Anakin now.

"SPACE TRIP!" they both yelled together.

"We can rent a ship! I just have to be there by Tuesday!" Anakin added, but Obi-Wan nodded, thinking this was a fair deal. After all, why wait to get rid of the pesky Nemoidans who had caused them all so much hassle in the past.

Jar Jar got up suddenly. "Boss Nass is dead!"

Obi-Wan and Anakin looked at each other, not knowing what to say. "Well, uh, we can talk about that too JJ." he said at last, but Jar Jar was shaking his head, causing his huge ears to almost knock Anakin out.

"No! No, his ship!" he corrected and Obi-Wan turned back to Anakin, who looked equally as confused.

"Hesa probably not usin it; you can drive it to Mustafar." Jar Jar finished and Anakin's face lit up.

"Alright! Thanks Jar Jar!" he said, hugging the goofy gungan, who blushed bright red.

"Whoa-whoa-whoa, what are we going to do about my new padawan?" Obi-Wan interupted. Anakin thought for a few seconds.

"Um, leave him?"

"Alright, great Space trip baby!" Obi-Wan's face lit up again. Then he turned to Mace. "Is this ok with you Master?"

"Obi-Wan! You don't have to ask for the council's permission." he said, then when everyone else was preoccupied, he whispered "You can go."

"Thankyou" Obi-Wan whispered back. He hated doing anything without the council's permission, but he also hated Anakin calling him a good two shoes.

Mace stood up finally and put his bowl away, making a mental note to tidy up later. After all, he hated mess. "Hey Padme, come on! We're gonna be late for the eye doctor appointment!" he called.

Padme came out of her bedroom very reluctanly and slowly walked over to the table. "All right! Let's get this over with!" she sighed, but as she walked past the table, she noticed that no one was looking. Knowing how much Mace hated mess, she accidentally on purpose knocked over the open cereal box, letting it spill all over the floor. Then she deliberately started to walk it into her nice powder blue carpet, hoping that it would come out later. Still she had the money for a new one if it didn't.

"Ohhh! No! Look what I did!" she said, still deliberately walking the cereal into the carpet. "Oh, look at the mess! I mean, we're probably gonna have to clean this up! Y'know? We're gonna have to reschedule!"

But Mace wasn't going to be fooled. "If you thought this mess is going to bother me, you are wrong! All right, let's go Blinky!" he said, ushering Padme out of the door, but before he closed the door fully, he stuck his head back in. "Obi-Wan!"

Obi-Wan nodded in agreement and crouched down to clear up the mess.
