My first few months as Queen Amidala was quite busy with all the traveling through Naboo. I was always busy, and had 9 assassination attempts so far.
It was then I discovered that that was an unusual amount so far and even though I fought hard for not having much protection, my council insisted that I had it. This is when Master Qui-Gon Jin and his Padawan, Obi-Won Kenobi were assigned to be my protection.
The Trade Federation attacked my planet a few days afterward.
"Queen Amidala! Come now!" my handmaiden Dorme called. "We are being attacked!"
Dorme and a few other handmaidens rushed into my closet and began packing. We were boarded onto a ship and launched.
After a few hours of flying, the ship's parts began to break, and then the ship forced itself to land.
We arrived on the desert planet of Tatooie and met Anakin and his mother, Schmi. Both of them were slaves and some of the most welcoming people I had ever met.
Anakin, who was 10 at the time, invited us into his home as strangers after he told us a storm was coming.
Master Qui-Gon sensed a rather large amount of the force in him and knew he needed to be trained.
Anakin was a master in robotics and mechanics and amazed me by the fact that such a young boy could be so skilled.
He was so sweet at that age and asked me if I was an angel. He even predicted that he would marry me someday. I laughed at that sweet remark.
He earned his freedom from his master in a pod-race he flew himself.
Ani said a solemn goodbye to his mother, and we flew back to Naboo.
We also had Jar-Jar Binks on the ship who was a Gungun.
I formed an alliance with his race and we went into battle with the Trade Federation. Little did we know that one of our friends was in greater danger.
Darth Maul had killed Master Qui-Gon Jin and then Obi-Won killed Darth Maul.
That was the last time I saw Obi-Won and Anakin for 10 years. My second term went on and I never really forgot my old friends. But then 10 years later, I was elected the Senator of Naboo, and more assassination attempts had been commited like the one that had happened to my most trustworthy handmaiden and decoy, Dorme.
Master Obi-Won Kenobi and his padawan, Anakin were assigned to protect me….
