Chapter 2 End of A Term

In the great Senate debating room the Chancellor stood on his podium the senate speaker to his right and Leia and Mon Mothma to his left. They were the top two candidates and one would be Chancellor. Kyle, Luke, and Mara sat in Mon's pod watching. Either one the Jedi would be happy with.

" The final two candidates are former senator of Alderaan Leia Solo!" The senate speaker announced pausing for applause. " And former senator and Rebel Alliance leader Mon Mothma!"

The senate roared. Floating droid cameras swirled around the room broadcasting live on the holonet.

" There is a four day period to vote, starting today." The Chancellor announced. "On the fifth day the votes will be counted and the new Chancellor announced!"

The senate roared once more. Mara and Luke smiled.

" We need to see no more." Luke said to both his wife and Kyle as Mon stepped up to give a speech.

Later In The Jedi Temple on Coruscant

" Now with Leia or Mon as our Chancellor we can certainly gain permission to take Manaan." A bearded member of the council said.

" Do not be so sure. Mon likes to find a peaceful way to resolve things, if Manaan dose not seem a threat to her she will not let us." Luke said.

" It may be the same with Leia." A member suggested.

" I don't think so," Said Mara." But still if she sees no threat."

" She will see one if we tell her there is." Rasped the bearded one." She is our best chance."

" But say both do not let us." Kyle said.

" We could launch some covert ops and try to kill the Sith." Luke suggested.

" We do not even know who he is, or where he is hiding."

" Yes we do. He is on Manaan. Maul did say…"

" But that was Maul, he may have been bluffing." The bearded man said.

" It is the best lead we have." Kyle said.

" Regardless we should wait after the election to do anything. Surly we all agree on that." The bearded man said. Reluctantly they all did.

Manaan a Few days later

" That's enough." Sidious said deactivating his lightsaber Grevious did the same to his two." You may be ready."

" For what?"

" For your test."

" What test?"

" When it is time you will know."

" This test involves dueling yes?"

" Yes."

" But you have taught me two forms."

" The best two. Djem So, and Ataru. The person you will face only uses one. One that you haven't learned."

" If you think I am ready my Lord." Grevious said bowing. I wish they hadn't made him this obedient. Sidious thought. He didn't know why, he just thought he obeyed to fast. Sidious turned to his guard.

" Has my shuttle been brought back?" Sidious asked.

" Yes my lord." The guard said quietly. Sidious walked over to his control panel to raise the platform." Come."

The two entered the turbo lift and it rose. They stepped out onto the wet platform, and there was the shuttle, just as the guard said. The ramp was lowering and is appeared Sidious wished to waste no time. They entered and shortly after the shuttle took off, leaving behind the ocean planet of Manaan, thankfully it wasn't what I would call a hell planet.

A/N: I am aware that this is a short chapter, only 603 words. They will get longer and better, this story is gonna be a long one. The story is huge it probably wont even be half over when I hit chapter 10, I might even have to make another but we'll see.
