"Why are they staying here?"

"Senator Organa made that request about two hours ago and it makes sense in a way. Those staying really are too injured to effectively protect themselves and they have to try and find a place to sleep that will allow them to recover. However according to the Senator that's a bit difficult right now so instead those too injured to safely protect themselves will be under our protection until they are well enough. Everyone else can handle anything that happens until your sleeping quarters are rebuilt"

"Senator Organa told you guys about that?"

"Yes he did, but I can tell it's only because he's worried about your safety"

"Makes sense actually remember what has only ever been described as the Ryloth fiasco?"

"Oh I remember hearing about that. I was too young by a year to join the security team but Alderaan heard of the incident"

"What's the Ryloth fiasco?"

"For whatever reason several people didn't want the Senator on Ryloth. One night during his week long visit one of the places he was staying at was bombed, however the Senator wasn't there that night. Instead several security officers were there getting things prepared for his stay later that evening or early the next morning because Senator Organa himself was in a meeting at the time of the bombing. After that he rotated where he stayed on a regular basis not being predictable for everyone's safety. The problem was every where's else was too small for the entire security force so the Senator arranged sleeping spaces that were known to be safe for members of his security team for whenever they weren't assigned to his protection detail that day"

"That shows he cares about you guys, now then those who are needed and are well enough will have to arrange for their own sleeping quarters but those that aren't well enough will be safe enough here. We'll give Senator Organa regular updates on their condition as well as your Security Chief and when possible they will be allowed visitors, but that's only with the permission of their healers"

"Naturally, thank you for allowing the severely injured to stay in a safe place to heal"

"It makes sense because honestly we're not sure if they're able to be transported to another hospital at this point and even if we could we don't know if a hospital would be safe enough right now"

Meanwhile Bail and John were talking about Bail taking a leave of absence from the Senate to personally oversee what was going on on Alderaan

"I think they'll allow it, but we're going to need more than what's available"

"Don't worry I already have decided to request Padawan Skywalker's presence on this mission"

"We his ride?"

"Yes we are, his Master is on Alderaan as you know and we are going to reunite the two on Alderaan however he's not to know about this and besides he might actually be needed for real"

"And the men left behind?"

"Once they're well enough I think they would do well temporarily with Senator Mothma. I'll ask her tonight and see what she thinks about it, but until then they're staying at the Temple, Master Windu just informed me of this"

"That's good to hear, at least they're safe for the time being"

"Exactly"

"Okay, you make the request to the Jedi Council, I will see about when Senator Mothma can meet us so you can ask her your favor and then we'll ask the Chancellor if you can oversee things from Alderaan personally. At least it isn't full out war yet"

"And I hope this ends before that happens but for now like I said I think I need to be back on Alderaan in case of trouble"

"Senator I have a question for the car"

"Okay, unless you want to write it down if you feel talking out loud right now isn't safe"

So John actually writes down his question on paper

Paper

"Were sudden meetings common during the war you fought in?"

End

Bail simply nods and then both start working on a few other things that needed done, including letting his Kor Soth Let teacher know he was going off planet for a bit and was as such surprised when fifteen minutes later his teacher came to his office

"Master Lenira what are you doing here?"

"I got your message, turns out that right now finding a dojo is pretty hard and while I made an offer on an abandoned building it's going to take a few weeks for them to get back to me. In the meantime the rest of my students are mentioning a summer break for most of them so I decided to come with you to continue your lessons, you've improved so quickly that I feel I should personally oversee the rest of your training on your planet"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean you've learned almost everything except a few lessons that I only give to my students who are almost ready to be declared masters themselves"

"But I only just started this training"

"For some reason you've advanced quicker then any other student I have ever had you're ready. I will not be teaching you on the ship however"

"Makes sense. There's barely enough room for my security forces to get in regular hand to hand combat training and we forgo any weapons training unless absolutely necessary"

"Okay then maybe I can see that room as well, because depending on the size of the room I might actually be able to start your lessons"

"Sure, by the way we will have a Jedi Padawan with us, his Master is currently on Alderaan though the Padawan doesn't know this"

"You're his ride back to his Master then"

"Exactly, though you never know the Padawan might actually be needed but hopefully it'll be a peaceful journey"

"Agreed"

The Kor Soth Let master leaves and then a few hours later Bail leaves having gotten approval from Palpatine to take a leave of absence and also Mon Mothma's word that his people would temporarily work for her once they were healed enough which also equaled a safe place to stay until either the security barracks were repaired or Bail returned

"Senator about the comment of you learning Kor Soth Let faster than anyone else is this because of the war?"

"Possibly. Like I said I am a natural with blasters, however while I was never formally taught self defense by anyone I did manage to pick up a few things through observation, plus you have to remember the fact that quite frankly a lot of what I picked up during the war years was purely for survival. As such it makes sense that I would pick things up quickly especially if it meant I would be able to save my life, or at least give me a better chance at survival"

"Okay then, get some sleep when we get home Senator you have an early day tomorrow"

"Right, Master Lenira know the departure time?"

"Yes I made sure of it"

"Good"

The next day Bail got a small surprise, Yoda had decided to come along the trip with Bail's permission for reasons known only to him and Anakin

"Come with you may I? Good it will be I think for me to see Alderaan's plight in person"

"Of course Master Yoda, I would be honored if a Jedi Council member joined me on my journey home"

Once aboard several people simply went back to bed because of the fact that they were seriously off schedule in regards to sleep. What happened with those people was the fact that they worked from about noon to midnight and then slept from about midnight to ten depending on where they were staying, as such being up at three in the morning was not natural for them and they needed to get back to bed in hopes of getting back on their normal sleep schedule since they decided to overlap the two protection details since it wasn't really worth it to get three hours of sleep except for one person because of the fact that they were required by their physician to get sleep whenever they were supposed to due to a rare medical condition, that while not serious enough to affect his job was bad enough that if he was too severely off his sleep schedule he would be sick for at least three days and up to a week depending on how off he was. Anakin also went back to sleep because unfortunately he'd had a bad night in regards to memories and as such still needed sleep, Yoda simply meditated before going back to sleep because of the fact that he'd also had a semi-bad night with a vision
