I don't own Star War or Naruto

Former Ninja and Sith

Naboo 3

XXX

The Naboo cruiser just landed on the outskirt of Mos Eisley. Naruto walks out followed by Qui Gon, R2D2 and Binks. The group heads a few feet, when Panaka runs up with Padme. "Her highness demands you take her handmaiden," said the captain.

"No more demands from her highness," said Qui Gon.

Naruto sighed. "She can come," said the blond. "Remember I am the Queens voice so I out rank you."

It won't be safe," said Master Jinn.

"She can take care of herself," said Naruto. "I trained the staff and the queen in self defense."

The group walks into the town. "We should look for a shop that is out of the way," said Master Jinn.

"Agreed," said Naruto.

They walk the street as stalls are set up selling food. Vender selling their wares and trinkets. Naruto sees a shop with droid part out front. "Master Jinn," said Naruto pointing to the shop. "That will work."

They head into a shop and are greeted by a Toydarian. "Ah customer," said the flying alien.

Naruto steps. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki, we are looking for parts to a Nubian."

"We got lots of that," said the alien. "Boy get in here."

A young boy about nine walks into the shop. "I was cleaning the converters," said the boy.

"Watch the shop I got selling to do," said the alien.

Naruto and Master Jinn walked into the scrap yard. "So Nubian," said the alien. "I have a hyperdrive for fifty thousand peggats."

"Do you take republic credits?" asked Naruto. Jinn looks at the blond.

'Credit are no good out here," said Watto.

"What is the exchange rate of the two?" asked Naruto.

I think it is 40 credit for one peggats," said Watto.

"We don't have enough," said Naruto.

The boy was at the counter. "Are you an angel?" he asked.

"What?" asked Padme.

"An angle, I hear pilots talking about them. They say, they're the most beautiful thing in the galaxy," said the boy.

"You're a funny little boy. How do you know so much?" asked Padme.

"I hear pilots and smugglers talking about them," said the boy.

"How did you end up here?" asked the handmaiden.

"My mom was owned by Gradulla the Hutt. But she lost a bet with Watto," said the boy.

"You're a slave?" asked Padme.

"I am a person and my name is Anakin," said the boy.

"I apologize," said Padme

Naruto was with Watto. "Can you hold the part for a few days?" asked Naruto. "Five day I will be back with the money."

"No real market for Nubian. I can hold it," said Watto.

I appreciate it," said Naruto. The two walk back into the shop. "Let's go. We will come back later."

The group walks away.

As they were walking down the street, Naruto stops. "Sandstorm," he said. "Ship is too far."

"What do we do?" asked Padme.

They stop off at a stall and the boy from the shop walks up. "You'll need your energy," said the boy giving Qui Gon a fruit.

"Thank you, my young friend," said Naruto. "Are there lodgings anywhere we stay the night."

"Not here," said the boy. "A sandstorm is coming."

"I figured," said Naruto. "It's too close to head to the ship."

"You can come to my place," said Anakin.

"Will your parents be ok with that?" asked Naruto. "I can offer some credit and help around the house."

"Follow me.'

They head to the slave quarters and Naruto frowns. "I don't believe there is still slavery," said Padme.

"The republic has no presence here," said Naruto.

They get to a small house. "Mom I am home," said Anakin.

A female walks in. "Ani who are these?"

Naruto walks up. "Greeting, we were about to be caught in a sandstorm and your son offered us shelter. I will be happy to help you with chores as payment for our time here."

The female nods her head. "I guess I can use the help."

XXX

Naruto was walking around the kitchen. "Your son is a very kind boy," said Naruto. "He offered us, strangers shelter."

"He has always been kind," said the female. "I want better for him."

"The life of a slave is not one worth living," said Naruto. "The meat is done."

"Thanks for the help," said Shmi.

Naruto nods his head. "I promised to help when while here."

Naruto turned his head and smiled as he saw Anakin.

During dinner, Anakin talking about the bombs in the slaves chest. Padme looks around the table. "I can't believe there is still slavery in the galaxy. The Republic has anti slavery laws."

Naruto shakes his head. "The Republic has no authority here," said the blond. "I doubt they even care."

Have you seen a podrace?" asked Anakin.

Yes," said Qui Gon. "On Malastar, very fast, very dangerous."

"I am the only human who can pilot one," said the boy.

"Impressive you must have Jedi reflexes," said the Master.

"You're a Jedi aren't you," said Anakin.

"What makes you say that?"

"I saw your laser sword, only Jedi have those," said Anakin.

Jinn sighs. "Perhaps I killed a Jedi and took it from him."

"You can't kill a Jedi," said Anakin.

"I wish that were true."

Have you come to free the slaves?" asked Anakin.

"We were on a diplomatic mission and where attacked by pirates," said Naruto. "Our Hyper drive was damaged."

"I can fix it," said Anakin.

"I bet you can." Qui Gon sighs. "We need to get the part for the ship."

These junk dealers must have weakness," said Padme.

"Gambling," said Shmi. "Wagers are made on those horrible races."

"I have a podracer," said Anakin. "I can race it."

"I don't think that is wise," said Naruto. "It's your mothers call."

"I don't want you to Anakin. It terrifies me every time Watto forces you to do it," said Shmi.

"But mom," said Anakin. "You told me the problem with the galaxy is that no one helps each other."

"I don't think Master Jinn would like to endanger your son's life," said Padme. "We will find a way."

"No, there is no other way," said Shmi. "I may not like it but he can help you."

Naruto was walking around the slave quarters with Shmi. "I can buy you some food for the house," said the blond.

"Why go out of your way for use humble slaves?" asked Shmi. "You have nothing to gain from helping us."

"You're right, but you're housing us and feeding us with you meager supplies," said Naruto. "I can't let that stand as long as you are providing a roof. I will do what I can."

"Thank you."

"I have a question, who is in charge of Tatooine?" asked Naruto.

"Jabba the Hutt," said Shmi.

"We got everything you need?" asked Naruto.

"Yes."

"Let's head back," said Naruto. The two walk back to the small dwelling. Naruto is disgusted by how the slaves are treated. He hear a whip. "Head back I will join you shortly."

"Don't do anything reckless," said Shmi.

Naruto walk towards the sound and what he sees make him seethe in rage. In front of him is a small child Torguta about 7 being whipped by a Nikto. "You have lost me more money," said the alien. He goes to whip him again when he grabs his throat as if he is choking.

"You must feel very big beating a child," said a voice in the alley way. Naruto walks out. "Two things that piss me off. Slavers and child beaters. Guess what you're both of those things."

"I will detonate the bomb in his chest," said the Nikto.

"Will you now?" asked Naruto with a malicious smirk. "Go right ahead."

The man pushes the button on his belt they wait with the boy eyes close. "You can open your eyes."

Nothing happened. The Nikto looks horrified. "It should have killed him."

"I disarmed the bomb remotely," said Naruto. "Turn your head child. This man won't be bothering you after today."

Breaking the Nikto's neck with the force. "Thank you mister," said the boy.

Naruto looks at the boy. The boy's eye have hopelessness in them. "Let me check your injuries," said Naruto. "Do you have any parents?"

"My mother died standing up to the local slavers," said the boy.

"What's your name?"

"Tak Sha," said the boy.

"Here is some money, gets some food. I healed most of your injuries. You should be ok," said Naruto giving the boy 500 credits.

Naruto walks away. "Thank you Mister," said the boy waving his hand.

Naruto got back to the slave quarters and walks into the house. "Anakin will be piloting the pod tomorrow?" asked the blond

"Yes," said Master Jinn.

"You seem troubled?" asked Naruto. "Is it about the boy?"

Jinn hums to himself. "Not sure what you know about the Jedi. But Anakin is strong in the force."

"I see," said Naruto. "I understand they take infants to be trained. You think he is too old?"

"That is one reason," said Jinn. "I don't know if he will leave his mother if I was able to offer him freedom."

"Watto would not let you take both of them," said Naruto. "That is a dilemma.'

"You seem to have good advice," said Jinn.

Naruto sighs. "I respect you Master Jinn. More then most Jedi's. You get the boy free, I will try to work my diplomatic skills to get his mother free."

"Thank you my friend," said Jinn.

"My other advice is keeping an eye on his pod," said Naruto. "Some of the races might try to sabotage it."

The two days went by Naruto was not seem for the two days. The third day was of the Boonta Eve Classic race. Naruto however was not anywhere to be seen?"

Padme turned to Jinn. "Have you seen Diplomat Uzumaki?"

"I did this morning," said Jinn. "Came back in bad shape. Mostly claw marks on his arms. He left a few hours later. Said he had some errands."

"You should have told him to stay put," said the Handmaiden.

"He can defeat my Padawon in battle and I think he was holding back," said Jinn. "He is not as slick as he thinks he is with his skills.'

The handmaiden saw a smirk on Jinn face. "What?"

"The race is starting," said Jinn.

The race started and the blond walked up to his group. "Sorry I am late," he said. "A race tried to sabotage Anakin's pod."

"Nice of you to join us," said Jinn. "How are your injuries?"

"Hurts like a bitch," said the blond getting slapped by Padme.

"Language," she hissed.

"I am so sorry mother," said Naruto with a smirk.

"I hate you sometimes," said the handmaiden. "How did you get hurt?"

"You will find out later," said Blond. "The saboteur just lost control of the pod and crashed."

Anakin pulls to first and crosses the finish line.

Naruto stands up slowly and hobbles away. The rest went down to cheer Anakin.

Back at the hut in the slave quarters. Anakin gave his mom the money from the pod. "I wagered your freedom," said Master Jinn.

"Really?" asked the young boy.

"Yes pack your things," said Jinn. He starts to run into his room.

"What about mom?" asked Anakin.

Naruto walks in as Jinn was telling that he couldn't wage them both. "Good thing I though ahead," said Naruto. "I was able to buy her freedom."

"How?" asked Padme.

"I wager my life against Jabba's best warrior to get half of the funds," said Naruto. "The injuries I sustained was not from that."

"What did you do?" asked Padme.

"Your planet has two less Dragons," said Naruto. "I used their pearls to buy Shmi's freedom and buy a small house in town.

Anakin and Shmi looked stunned. "Is it true?" she asked.

"Yes," said Naruto. "You're free we will bring you to Watto's shop to remove the bombs."

"Pack your things Anakin," said Jinn. He looks at Naruto as he is giving Shmi the direction to her new home.

"Master Jinn," said Naruto. "I am showing Shmi her new place. I will join you at the ship."

The Master nods his head.

A few hours later Jinn was walking through town with Anakin as the part was being installed. Spinning his saber he destroys a prob droid. "We have to leave," he said franticly.

The two were running toward the ship when a speeder heads toward Anakin. "Anakin drop!"

The boy does as Jinn green saber blazes to life. Clashing with the cloaked warriors red saber. Unknown to either of them another speeder. "Master Jinn get ready to jumps" said a small voice in his head. Dodging a strike the speeder is cut in half by the Sith as a yellow haired man jumps over the cloaked warrior and grab the sith's saber and takes off the man head. Jinn gets back up. "I sense dark side within you. Interesting but also light."

"Questions for later," said Naruto. "To answer one of them yes I was a darksider many years ago but now I renounce those ties.'

The two board the ship. Kenobi saber on Naruto throat. "Let him go Obi Wan," said Jinn. "If he wanted us dead it would have happened."

Obi Wan sees the hilt of the sith's saber next to his torso. "I have no desire to kill anybody here."

Naruto puts the saber away.
