Happy Halloween everyone! Hope everyone is staying healthy and safe during this crazy 2020 as we move into the holidays.

First off, I want to thank all of you for continuing to follow my updates. A big thanks to all of you since my last update that favorited my stories and favorited me as a writer. I am honored that you enjoy my stories that much. I have been very busy since my last update working to complete the first chapter of my new story "Dawn of New Innocence." I am extremely close to completing the first chapter and should be able to post it very soon. Completing the first chapter has taken me longer than I would like, because it's long and ambitious. If you love these characters as much as I do I think you will enjoy it.

And now for a little surprise, below I have posted a short teaser for chapter one of "Dawn of New Innocence." As I mentioned in my last update, this story will be a follow up story to my AU Anidala series. The first story in the series is Last Night of Innocence, (second) Day After Innocence, (third) Honeymoon on Naboo and (fourth) soon be posted Dawn of New Innocence."

Teaser:

"3PO and R2. Anakin and I want to talk to you about the incident that happened last night." Padme replied to their two beloved droids.

"What incident is that Mistress Padme? Oh, are you referring to R2 and I seeing you both naked in your bedroom?" 3PO replied back.

Padme tried to speak but 3PO continued.

"Why would you and Master Anakin ever want to be naked around each other? I was naked for years on Tatooine after Master Anakin left with you and never finished my coverings. Those years were unbearable. My parts were all hanging out, it was mortifying. Mistress Shmi used to have to clean sand out of my circuits regularly. She finally excepted Master Anakin was not coming back and she finished my coverings herself."

At the mention of Shmi Skywalker, Anakin's beloved mother, Padme could see the pain on Anakin's face. She placed her hand in Anakin's to comfort him. Anakin took a deep breath to calm his emotions.

"3PO, I'm glad mom finished your coverings. But you had no business walking into our bedroom unannounced. Padme and I need our privacy. From now on under no circumstances other than a major life or death emergency are you or R2 allowed in our bedroom. And when I say life or death, I mean life or death. So unless the house is burning down or another Sith Lord has shown up on our doorstep, stay out of our bedroom! Is what I said clear? Anakin asked in a firm tone to the bewildered droid.

"Yes, Master Anakin I understand." 3PO replied back to his maker.

R2 beeped quietly to show his respect for Anakin's wishes.

"I'm sorry I yelled at you two. I know you are only looking to help in whatever way you can. Padme and I very much appreciate your assistance. But If you walk into our bedroom again and it turns out to not be an emergency, I will not hesitate to shut either of you down to update your programming. You both need to respect the boundaries that Padme and I set for you to follow. I know I built you 3PO when I was nine. I did to not recognize the need to program you to understand human behavior more thoroughly, but obviously I need to update your programming very soon."

"Anakin your idea of the perfect time to court a woman is at the expense of the discomfort of others around you." Obi-Wan said to his former padawan.

"What do you mean?" Anakin asked his former master.

"I vividly remember you making a weak attempt to woo Padme when you first saw her again in her apartment when you said she "had grown more beautiful for a senator." Obi-Wan chuckled and took another sip of his drink. "Captain Typho, Dorme and I had to endure the awkward scene."

"Jar Jar was there as well. What I said was not weak because I was speaking from my heart." Anakin replied back.

"It was embarrassing Anakin and where is Jar Jar by the way?"

"Embarrassing or not what does it matter? Padme and I soon fell in love after that initial reunion and now she's my wife. Jar Jar is visiting his gungan family and you're trying to change the subject."

"I am very happy for you and Padme, but as far as how I choose to spend my time with women there is nothing to discuss."
