The door opened to the main hanger. Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Hadrian and the rest headed for a sleek chrome spacecraft. Sio Bibble, Yané and Saché stayed behind. The handmaidens began to cry. Hadrian followed his two friends when Panaka stepped forward next to Qui-Gon.

"We need to free those pilots."

Capt. Panaka pointed to twenty guards, ground crew and pilots held in a corner by six Battle Droids. Hadrian followed Obi-Wan.

"I'll take care of that." The padawan said, heading towards the group of captures pilots. Hadrian followed, pulling out his lightsaber. Obi-Wan saw him and gave him a weak smile.

"For a none Jedi, you pretty could with that lightsaber. When did you learn to fight?"

"Ever since I was five. I became a sword Master in Kendo just a year ago." Hadrian replied. Obi-Wan arched an eyebrow. In the distance they heard the droid call out. It drew his weapon, but before any of the Droids could fire, they were cut down. Other guards ran to their aid. Obi-Wan and Hadrian attacked the guard around the pilots. Hadrian slashed trough the circuit of one droid, cut one's head off and gave a roundhouse kick to the nearest Droid. He heard Obi-Wan call out for him.

He turned around slashed down an other one on the way. Guards and ground crew members rushed on board the ship. The other pilots and guard raced to Bibble. After everyone has made it onto the ship, Qui-Gon and Hadrian jumped on board. Alarms sounded throughout the complex. More Droids rushed into the hanger and fired as the ship took off.

The Nubian ship exited the hanger and speeded away from the planet of Naboo. It headed for the deadly Federation blockade. The Pilot Ric Olie, navigated toward the massive battleship, Qui-Gon and Capt. Panaka watched.

"Our communications are still jammed." The pilot said.

Jar Jar and Hadrian was led into a low, cramped doorway by Obi-Wan.

"Now stay here, and keep out of trouble." He told the Gungan. Hadrian followed Obi-Wan out of the door.

"Are you okay?" Obi-Wan asked the boy.

"Yeah, just a little too much for my taste." Hadrian said, rubbing his head. The padawan nodded and together they made their way into the cockpit. The Naboo Spacecraft, surrounded by explosion, headed even closer to the massive Battle Ship. Hadrian entered along with Obi-Wan and took a seat.

"There's the blockade. Hang on." The Pilot said, taking the controls. Alarms sounds filled the cockpit. The ship rocked back and fort while Hadrian tried to hold on to something. This was very excited. Then there was a hit on the ship.

"The shield generator's been hit. Our deflector shields can't withstand this. Power down… Hopefully the repair Droids can fix it." Ric Olie said, watching the screen.

"They will." Hadrian reassured everyone. But nobody listened.

On the screen they saw the little astro droids repairing the ship on the outside.

"Stay on course!" Panaka shouted.

"Do you have a cloaking device." Qui-Gon asked the pilot.

"No, this is not a warship, we have no weapon. We're a non-violent people, that is why the federation was brave enough to attack us." Panaka answered.

"We won't make it. The shield are gone." Ric Olie replied. Hadrian shook his head.

"We will make it. Trust on the Droids. Believe me."

Everyone looked at him.

"Hey keep your eyes on the road. I mean… well you know what I mean!" Hadrian cried back. The ship shook again.

"We're losing Droids fast." Obi-Wan replied suddenly.

"If they can't get those shield generators fixed we will be sitting ducks." Panaka cried.

"The shields are gone." The pilot answers remorseful.

Then suddenly the ship speeded up and the computer indicted that something was fixed. They couldn't believe their eyes.

"Power's back! That little droid did it. He bypassed the main power drive. Deflector shield up, at maximum."

"I told you so." Hadrian replied, looking at his fingers.

"It seems you were right." Qui-Gon acted surprised.

The Naboo spacecraft raced away from the Federation Battleship.

"There's not enough power to get us to Coruscant… The hyperdrive is leaking."

"We'll have to land somewhere to refuel and repair the ship." Qui-Gon studied a star chart on a monitor. Then Obi-Wan pointed something out.

"Here Master," He said. "Tatooine… It's small, out of the way, poor… the Trade Federation has no present there."

Capt. Panaka stepped next to the Jedi. "How can you be sure?"

"It's controlled by the Hutts…" Hadrian replied. Panaka and to other turned around to look at him.

"The Hutt's!" Panaka yelped.

Obi-Wan backed the boy up. "It's risky… but there's no alternative."

"You can't take her Royal Highness there! The Hutts are gangsters… if they discovered her…"

"It would be no different than if we landed on a system controlled by the Federation, except the Hutts aren't looking for her, which gives us an advantage." Qui-Gon piped in. Panaka took a deep breath in frustration. The Nubian Spacecraft raced away into the galaxy.

Qui-Gon, Captain Panaka and the little blue droid were standing in front of the Queen and her three handmaidens. Obi-Wan and Hadrian were standing just off side, watching the scene before them. Captain Panaka stepped next to the droid with a smile.

"An extremely well put together little droid. Without a doubt, it saved the ship, as well as our lives." He said, patting the droid dome.

"It is to be commended… What's his its number?" The Queen asked.

The little droid let out a series of bleeps. Capt. Panaka leaned over and scraped some dirt off of the side of the droid and read the number. "R2-D2, You Highness."

"Thank you, Artoo- Detoo. You have proven to be very loyal… Padmé!"

Padmé bowed before the Queen. Hadrian couldn't help himself smiling. The Fake queen given the Real Queen an order. Hadrian eyed the handmaiden with real interest. She was beautiful, no wonder Anakin liked her.

"Clean this droid up the best you can. It deserves our gratitude." She turned to the Captain. "Continue, Captain." Panaka looked nervously to Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon and even Hadrian who stared back. Qui-Gon stepped forward.

"Your Highness, we are heading for a remote planet called Tatooine. It is a system far beyond the reach of the Trade Federation. There we will be able to make needed repairs, then travel on to Coruscant."

Captain Panaka didn't quite agree. "Your Highness, Tatooine is very dangerous. It's controlled by an alliance of gangs called the Hutts. I do not agree with the Jedi on this."

Hadrian snorted. Panaka gave him a glare. When he looked away, Hadrian stuck out his tongue. Obi-Wan saw it and gave him a questioning glare. Hadrian rolled his eyes.

Qui-Gon moved on. "You must trust my judgment, You Highness." Amidala and Padmé exchanged looks. She gave her a small nod and moved next to the droid. Hadrian saw it and smirked. She left the room closed followed by the droid. Hadrian looked at his fellow Jedi's and crept away from the room too. He took his time. He heard some distance chatter, not mistaken it was Jar Jar's voice. The door slide open revealing the Gungan. Hadrian passed him and he went inside the room where he saw Padmé cleaning the droid.

He looked at her. Padmé Amidala had a slight figure and a lovely, feminine face. She was remarkably solemn for one so young. It was clear that she took her responsibilities with the utmost seriousness. Even has she played a handmaiden. She didn't hear him, he was glad. He liked to watch people from afar. But she looked up, like she heard something. Hadrian moved away from the shadow.

"So, how does it feel; to be ordered around by your Queen?" He asked. She looked up in surprised to see him standing there a few feet away. R2-D2 gave a beep. She shrugged.

"I'm a handmaiden, I'm suppose to do that." She replied. Hadrian smirked. Yeah right. He moved closer and gave her a hand in cleaning up the droid.

"You know," he said, rubbing the dirt away. "Your secret is save with me."

Padmé looked shocked and stopped cleaning. She gave him a confused look. Hadrian looked her in the eye.

"You know, being the real Que-" He was cut off by her hand covering his mouth. By this sudden action he lost his balance and felt on his back. Padmé, not knowing her own strengths felt on top of him. It was a very bizarre picture.

"Shhhh… don't say it. Nobody was suppose to know. And how did you know anyway?" She question him. Hadrian wanted to reply, but he couldn't. She took away her hand and let him talk.

"A little bird told me." He joked. She didn't liked it and swatted him on the head. Hadrian gave a mock shout while smiling at the same time. "Okay, okay. I just knew. I've been watching you quiet awhile. And it was very obvious to way you communicated with you handmaidens." Hadrian explained.

"Ooooh… But you are a Jedi." She remarked, sitting up but still on him. She saw him smiling down there on the floor. He looked quiet cute. With his black hair and the bluest eyes she has ever seen.

"In training, besides I have no master. I don't even been recognized by the Jedi council. I just been dropped out of heaven." Hadrian said.

"What do you mean?" She asked him. He gave her a wicked smile which made her blush.

"Well, if you don't mind getting off of me. I don't feel my legs anymore." He asked. Padmé blushed even more because of the situation they were in. She hopped off him and help him back on his feet. Artoo Detoo gave another series of beeps. Hadrian sat down on the bench while Padmé continued to work on the droid.

"I will keep your secret, then you have to keep mine." Hadrian explained. Padmé nodded. Hadrian could thrust her. If her was here to change the future, then so be it.

"I'm actually from Earth, an other galaxy far, far away from here." He said waving his hand. Padmé was taken aback.

"An other Galaxy? How's that possible."

"Dunno. I somehow landed right here in this Universe, like I don't mind and then I met these to Jedi's along the way. But the weirdest part is; when I woke up I was dressed like a Padawan learner. Like that wasn't a shock."

"Do they know?"

"Who?"

"The Jedi?"

"Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan?" She nodded. "Bits and pieces. I still have to explain myself before them and maybe before the Council. But I don't mind." He said. Padmé smiled.

"Do you like being a Jedi?" She asked. Artoo Detoo beeped again and turned his little dome around. Padmé smiled.

"Well, I have the gift and I don't mind playing one." Hadrian replied.

"So, with other words; you can use the Force." She asked him. Padmé was done cleaning the droid and stood up.

"I some sense, yes. I can levitate things, mind reading and stuff and even see the future once in a while." Padmé was amazed that someone like that can do that.

"Really?"

Hadrian nodded. He scanned the room to see if someone was there. He leaned closer to her and looked her in the eye. "Wanna see something cool, but you have to keep it a secret." Padmé nodded. She was suddenly very excited. Well, every fourteen year old would do that. "I have to ability the use the Force and turn it into raw energy."

"Is that even possible?"

Hadrian nodded and showed his right hand. "Watch in awe." He clenched his hand into a fist. Padmé looked close and suddenly she took a sharp inhale. Inside his hand, there was something blue and when he unclenched his hand it suddenly was engulfed with blue fire. Padmé stared back at him. It was the same color of his eyes. "Touch it." He said. She looked confused, reach out with her hand but hesitated. She looked back at him and Hadrian gave her a nod. He touch his hand, waiting for the pain to come. But none came. Hadrian took her hand in his and it licked hers and she giggled. It was ticklish.

"How? Why doesn't it hurt me?"

"Because I don't want to hurt you. I'm pyrokinesis which means I can create fire at will, anytime. It becomes dangerous when I want too." Hadrian clarified. She took her hand away and Hadrian drew the fire back into his hand. She saw that the fire didn't hurt him, like her. She still felt the sensation. Hadrian continued. "I can even create the fire at distance, like attacking fuel supplies." He smirked.

"It's amazing." She said, admiring him. Hadrian laughed, pointing his finger to his mouth.

"Hush, our secret."

She nodded. She suddenly felt very hot. Somehow she felt attracted to him. His eyes hold many stories she really wanted to know. She smiled and stood up, before anything would happen that wasn't proper. Hadrian followed her example.

"I better go back to the Queen." She said.

"She is right here." Hadrian teased.

Padmé slapped him on the shoulder. "You know what I mean."

"Sure thing, Your Highness." His eyes laughed and he bowed.

"Your impossible." She turned towards the door, followed by Hadrian.

While Padmé went back to the queens chamber, Hadrian went to the cockpit. When he entered the room he saw Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon and Capt. Panaka watching over the shoulder of the pilot. He went to stand aside them. Obi-Wan gave him a nod and the boy smiled back. A large yellow planet appeared directly ahead. Ric, the pilot, searched his scopes.

"That's it. Tatooine." Obi-Wan said. Hadrian awed the planet. He only saw those thing in books and magazines, but he never would have thought he could see the real thing. He smiled.

"Alright Gentlemen, put on some sun block and your desert gear, 'cos here we come." He joked. Qui-Gon smiled along while Panaka couldn't smile at all. Hadrian elbowed him in the side. The Captain looked at him. "Cheer up, Capt'n. At least we are still free and not in the hands of the Federation."

The boy was right. Panaka bowed his head to Hadrian and gave him a small smile.

"See, the first step of a beautiful friendship." He said. Even Obi-Wan couldn't help himself but smile.

"There's a settlement… a spaceport.." Ric said; flying toward it.

"Land near the outskirts. We don't want to attract any attention." Qui-Gon replied. The pilot nodded and the ship headed toward the planet of Tatooine.

The Naboo cruiser landed in the desert in a swirl of dust. The Spaceport of Mos Espa was seen in the distance. Mos Espa was a city known for its distinct "desert-proof" domed buildings. There was a large slave quarter within the rugged city.

Obi-Wan was hoisting the hyperdrive out of a floor panel. Jar Jar rushed up to him and felt to his knees.

"Obi-Wan, sire, plaeeeeeese, no mesa go!" He pleaded.

"Sorry, Qui-Gon's right. You'll make thing less obvious." Obi replied working on the device. Hadrian stepped into the main area, dressed in a beige poncho. Hearing Jar Jar plead, He smiled and hoisted the Gungan back up.

"You not going alone, Jar Jar. I'll be with you." The boy said. The Gungan muttered something unintelligible then he walked back to Artoo in the hallway as Qui-Gon, dressed as a farmer, entered the main area.

"The hyperdrive generator is gone. We will need a new one." Obi-Wan said to his Master. Qui-Gon moved closer to his apprentice and spoke quietly to him.

"Don't let them send any transmissions. Be wary… I sense a disturbance in the Force."

"I fell it also, Master."

"Me too." Hadrian replied. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan stared at him. "It's like your being watched form a unknown location, but you can't pinpoint it. And there's something else at work here too." He enlightened. Qui-Gon nodded and went into the hallway to meet up with Artoo and Jar Jar. Hadrian followed.

"Be careful." Obi-Wan said. Hadrian thanked him. They headed to the exit ramp. They started their trek across the desert toward the City of Mos Espa. In the distance, a strange looking caravan made its way toward the spaceport. Hadrian recognized it as herd of Banhta's. He walked behind Qui-Gon and Jar Jar right next to him. The little droid kept the pace while following them.

"Dis sun doen murder tada skin." Jar Jar complained. Hadrian laughed. From the spaceship, Capt. Panaka and Padmé ran toward them. Somehow Qui-Gon wanted to roll his eyes.

"Her Highness commands you to take her handmaiden with you. She wishes for her to observe the local…" Panaka said, but Qui-Gon piped in.

"No more commands from Her Highness today, Captain. This spaceport is not going to be pleasant…"

"The Queen wishes it. She is curious about this planet." Panaka declared angrily. Padmé stepped forward to plead her case.

"I've been trained in defense… I can take care of myself." She said looking him in the eye.

"Don't make me go back and tell her you refuse." Panaka said.

Hadrian rolled his own eyes. Why does he need to be so big headed.

"Let her come with us, Qui-Gon. The more the merrier. Besides with her, we'll be less suspicious." Hadrian looked back at Padmé and flashed her a smile. Qui-Gon sighed.

"I don't have time to argue. But this is not a good idea. Stay close to us." He said turning around and continued to walk. Without given Padmé and Hadrian a stern look. She moved on next to her friends.

"Thanks." She said. Hadrian waved it away, knowing very well why her Highness wanted to see the planet. Together they began at their long trek. Qui-Gon found this a good opportunity to question the boy and called him next to him. Hadrian knew this was coming and obeyed. Padmé followed suite.

"We have a lot of time before we reach the spaceport. So, start explaining." Qui-Gon said. Hadrian didn't like the tone of the man's voice but obliged.

"You want the story of my life?" Hadrian asked. The Jedi Master nodded. Even Jar Jar and Padmé were interested. He will give them some pointers of his life.

"I was born in Los Angeles, in the year 1992. On Earth if you were wondering." He started.

"Los Angeles?" The man asked.

Hadrian nodded. "Or LA. It's the capital city of California. I grew up there, went to school, you know the usual. I don't even know how it happen, okay. It was at night when I wanted to return home from training when it happen."

"Training? In what?" Qui-Gon asked.

"I started to train Martial Arts at the age of five. Karate, close combat without weapons. I have the black belt which is the highest you can get. And just a year ago I became a Sword master in Kendo; the way of the Sword. I've been considered the youngest Master in the world. Well, my world."

"Interesting. But that didn't explain why you're here." Now Qui-Gon knew why the boy was so good with the lightsaber. It explained a lot.

"I was getting there." Hadrian replied irritated. "It was at night when it happened. The light's suddenly went out and I was standing in total darkness and the next thing I knew I was on the Federation Ship wearing a Padawan outfit and wielding a lightsaber."

Qui-Gon looked thoughtful. There must be a reason why the boy was here. But he wasn't telling everything. The boy was Force-sensitive, that was for sure. He even felt it. And it was strong. And how did the boy knows so much about their galaxy if he wasn't even born here. So many question and so little time. He will bring this boy before the Council. Maybe they will know what to do.

"Can we stop with this Spanish Inquisition?" Hadrian asked; arching his eyebrow. Qui-Gon sighed and nodded. "Thanks. I only want to help, you know."

"I know." Was his reply.

After a long walk, the little group walked down the main streets of Mos Espa. They passed dangerous looking citizens of all types. Even Hadrian looked at them in wariness. Padmé looked around in awe at this exotic environment. Seeing it in their eyes, Qui-Gon started to explain about this little planet.

"Moisture farms for most part, but also a few indigenous tribes and scavengers. The few spaceports like this one are havens for those who do not wish to be found."

"Like us." Padmé added. Jar Jar was in a constant state of panic while Artoo whistled along, with perfect confidence.

"Dissen berry berry bad." He stepped in ooze. "Ooooh… icky…icky…goo."

"C'mon, Jar Jar." Hadrian shouted. The group came to a little plaza surrounded by several junk spaceship dealers. Hadrian eyed everyone of them, staying close to Padmé. Padmé even liked it. He was some kind of unofficial bodyguard.
