Chapter 6: The Investigation And Senate Changes II

"My lord, now that you returned to duty, can we assume the task of not needing to actually consider treason here against the republic. An emergency arrest in whoever is connected to our Sithmaster, we're searching for him still right now." Mace asked and he nodded. "Indeed Master Windu, I authorized you to find out who our Sithmaster is, but rather then releasing him. And completely, I am making my predecesser Vice Chancellor, of the republic, if he claimed now."

"On no confidence 10 years ago, was that on purpose, get you to have distrust in me, of not being capable of action, or. In truth now, all part of the plan right now, to take control of the senate and till something happened now." he said and Yoda smiled, knowing this meant he still had offices there on Coruscant, they could watch him. Till he revealed himself for sure, and he saw the look that said, 'Perfect, I am not out of luck yet.' he saw in his eyes sternly then.

As Adi nudged Qui-Gon with her arm, he looked directly at Vice Chancellor Sheev Palpatine and nodded sternly, as he gripped Mace's elbow and he hid a nod. As Siri touched Obi-wan's back and he nodded, knowing they had their Sithlord and he targeted Anakin now. 'You're not getting anywhere near my baby boy' 'my baby brother, you Sith scum.' they all thought together sternly, seeing that look then and Ki crossed his arms sternly then, as Depa stood next to them.

With an unreadable look then. "As I once said, to your predecessor my lord, if more star systems do break away, you must understand here. There are not enough of us Jedi to keep the peace, we are keepers of the peace, not soldiers now. We're still healing from the fact we lost our friend 19 years ago, and our dear friends just woke up. And Anakin just recovered completely after a run in with the Sithmaster 8 months ago." he said and Valorum nodded.

"Master Dantallion, she was a very dear friend of our's, none more so then Master Qui-Gon, in time we begun to heal, but we had one too many close calls. Thinking we lost a member, only that became true, in Master Dyas's disappearance and possibly murder. Said is still a very big mystery to us now, one we intend to get to bottom of right now. But Anakin, being the good natured young man that he is, has been tested, again and again, and he still won't give in."

"To answer the unasked question here, in preventing a case of what us force sensitives call the embrace of pain, Anakin had a 3rd degree concussion. And after being blasted into the wall, of a cave, when arresting Zan Arbor, while Omega was killed in a fight to the death. So we had one arrest, a fight in self defense, after he nearly killed Darra Thel Thanis, and an escape. And a head injury and enough we were waiting for the recovery to finish up and it did right now."

"As Darra woke up, just last week, at the same time Qui-Gon and Master Yaddle did, he's going to be fine right now, that we got all three of them back at once. Anakin's training was forwarded now, to force healing and force judgement, and he's a Master Guardian. Not good or evil, but only human now, he and his quartet, or quintet, as our friend Clee Rhara and her team. Now is considered, are our best squadron in the Jedi." he said and Valorum nodded, as that helped.

And Palpatine froze in shock, realizing that erased his only leverage against coercing him to his side, Anakin chose Qui-Gon and now everything planned out. As it now had to be reconfigured now at the time here. "I think we undid his only leverage, by you teaching him that, Qui'." Clee Rhara said in a whisper and he nodded. "He may not be a youngling anymore, but he never completely lost his youthful innocence right now." Mace said to them in response to that.

"Yeah that and he never lost his interest in his added skills, he could be any career and get the job done now." Adi said and Mace nodded. "Our teams are swapping off in team ups, so whoever between us goes, we're taking a partner pair up." Damon said and Adi nodded in agreement then. "Good, we nearly lost whoever between us one too many times, this is not killing us now." Tiana said in response and Yoda nodded in agreement to that opinion, as he said it gently.

"Three months we give it, so no rush, as refuel and gather supplies in between stops, Obi-wan, Lana, Ferus." he said and they nodded. "If they're waiting for some sort of trigger they're about to be severely disappointed, we think the arrest at possibly Geonosis. Said is really a trap to murder sum number amount of Jedi, so we're tracing the circuit Fett's ship took. To get back to Kamino if he's still there now, but I could be the bait here now." Obi-wan said and he nodded.

"To kill sum number of the Order right now, so Skywalker thinks that's where Dooku is hiding right now?" he asked and Obi-wan nodded then. "There's an astroid belt surrounding it, that one seismic charge, is a meteor shower waiting to happen here." Lana said and he nodded sternly then. "If Dooku thought we'd be surprised that the Republic is in the hands of our Sithmaster, he's about to be severely disappointed, because his non force sensitive alias right now."

"Has absolutely no power to cast votes or make decisions now, I'm the one in charge here, so as to that I'm casting executive emergency orders starting now. Loyalist Committee, you are the ones in charge here, regarding votes as of now, whatever you choose, I will pass." he said and Committee nodded smiling sternly. "If this follows the same pattern, it's like when we went to talk to the Trade Federation, only our Sithmaster added a bounty hunter and my ex master."

"And to it, the equation, but the attempted demoralization tactic backfired, Anakin caught him just in time." Qui-Gon said and he nodded sternly. "I assume this equation has significant value to you as the Jedi Order?" Agiel Ackbar asked and he nodded. "My Apprentice Xanatos used it when my padawan was 13, and the distraction, the kidnapping, of Obi-wan's friend Bant. Was deflecting us from realizing he planted the crystals inside the furnace." he said and they nodded.

And in shocked disbelief then. "But disruption, the blockade was distracting the Order from getting to know my new padawan. Demoralization, these attacks on the senator, and the attempted murder of his mother, is demoralizing us here. And from finding out who the real target is, said it happens to be Anakin himself right now. The Sith Apprentices of old are being destroyed, one by one, so he can take my student as his apprentice, as my student now."

"Is the most powerful force sensitive in the history of the Jedi Order, in the hands of good, his powers can save billions, but turned to the darkside. And it's a super nova waiting to be creating and destroying anything it in path." he said and Valorum nodded in shock to that news. "Unfortunately the apprentice he has his eyes on, is the wrong padawan, Anakin had a twin brother, Andy Darian Vandel, my dear Annie is a Jedi through and through here now."

"As us Jedi all know for certain here, the Sith, Nightsisters and Brothers and Dark Jedi all sport two things, golden red eyes and blood red lightsabers. Red to us is the symbol of evil and corruption now, but mixed together with pink, yellow and blue. We create an even stronger warrior, not good or bad, but only human, what we call a Master Guardian. Anakin is a Master Guardian, and a younger version of Master Windu." he said and Valorum nodded sternly then.

"The apprentice that went to Vice Chancellor Palpatine, before Anakin left, dressed in that chocolate brown, going black jumpsuit. So that's Andy, and the one that came to me, after you re-instated me, is Anakin?" he said and Mace nodded gently. "Correct, Anakin chose to stick to his padawan clothing, and modeled his looks and time frame after his big brother. My apprentice Obi-wan Kenobi now, Andy is a bit of rogue here." Qui-Gon said and they nodded then gently.

As they saw the shocked disbelief at that, in Palpatine's eyes, realizing the Jedi he been fixated on was the wrong twin, he been working on Anakin's alter ego. Turned twin brother for 10 years, Anakin was too loyal to Obi-wan, Mace, Qui-Gon. And Yoda to even consider turning, as his attempt to destroy him, by using both his loved ones had backfired. He had to try something else, making after the war began, it was break Jabba's trust in them would do now finally.

Mace saw him thinking and he crossed his arms at that consideration. "But here's our exchange with Anakin, after he saved Shmi now." he said and showed him and the Loyalist Committee the recording between them then. "This should be real good, as the 15 of us weren't in the council room to hear the conversation." Mon said sternly and Valorum nodded in agreement then. "Master reporting in now, I just made it, it seems after careful deciphering here."

"A man carrying a red lightsaber made a bargain with the tribe that kidnapped her. This man was white haired with a beard, and a curved lightsaber hilt. Dooku was definitely here, he and Sidious's little plan to make me brush the darkside alright. Sidious knows about our relationship, what she means to me, the girls, Obi-wan, you, my friends, both versions are my only weakspot, as you would later say to Light."

"Bury it deep down, do me credit, but could be made to serve their plans." he said and they nodded. "Agreed, control your emotions, could be a trap." Valorum said to that, "Indeed, you need to control your feelings, or they could be turned against you. In a situation of hostages, so your assumption of it being a Sith plot is directly on target. Is anyone else involved?" Mace asked and he shook his head as he answered him gently to question.

"Well I got a lead for you, Jabba has a Mandalorian bounty hunter named Jango Fett on his payroll, but he hasn't been back to Tatooine in over a month. So wherever that dart came from, it could be connected, so check the records, or see Dex. Because the longer this takes the better right now, as we get the drop on them. As instinct serves that Sidious is still working with Gunray, so our Bounty Hunter is connected to them."

"I spoke to everyone around the settlement, there's no motive, in fact they're quite close in the settlement, my stepfather is widely known around here. But Tatooine locals are furiously loyal to each other, we would never turn on each other for money." he said and they nodded. "Very well if you wish to stay a few days, that's fine Anakin, but the team must return to Coruscant now." he said and Anakin nodded gently to him

And at the news. "Obi-wan, in tracing that bounty hunter down, his ship is equipped with seismic charges, missiles and a few other things, so if he comes out here. There's a astroid belt around Geonosis, and Tatooine is 1 parsec away. And from my planet now, so be careful." Anakin said and Obi-wan nodded sternly, realizing in trying to escape, the exploding debris could cause a meteor shower, or worse to strike Tatooine, or any other planet

That was in range of Geonosis then. "Master I think it's best we take this investigation slowly, so by the time we hit this so called war's opening, we have our Sithmaster where we want him." Anakin said and they nodded. "Taking time to recharge our batteries, most of us are all working a double shift in back to back missions, so take as much time as possible, yes I agree with you, Anakin." Adi said and Yoda nodded gently

And in agreement to her opinion. "Take our time, we will." he said to that and the Committee nodded agreement. "Agreed." they all said togegher. "We're staying 2 to 3 weeks here, then taking transport to Naboo, mom deserves a chance to be with me, and I get to know my stepfamily and sister in law. We're also dropping in on my friends at Mos Espa, fast audience with Jabba, and then leaving." he said and Qui-Gon nodded in approval gently.

"Very well, but after you get to your safehouse keep the channel off, and till I contact you." Obi-wan said gently and he nodded smiling gently then. "I will, be careful Obi-wan, we'll see you in a few weeks, I got a fast race to deal with. As that's only way to get the money to pay for passage to Naboo here." he said and Obi-wan nodded smiling, knowing his padawan had matured beyond quickly, as they watched Palpatine swallow hard.

"And there it is, time reversed itself alright, and here's where 10 years of piloting results in doing better then ever. I'll grant you 2 more races, and then you're retired, Anakin." Obi-wan said and he nodded smiling. "Brother really, we leave you alone for a few weeks, and back to this again. You're not reverting back fully, so no messing around now." Siri said and he looked at her with a playful smile and Qui-Gon chuckled.

"Two races?" Obi-wan said and Mace nodded. "Two races then retirement, that should be enough, we have that Dug completely humiliated here. After the last crash we saw right now, he's as twisted inside, as he is on the outside." Qui-Gon said and Mace nodded. "On vacation maybe, but that doesn't mean reverting back here completely padawan, okay." Mace said and he nodded, smiling and Siri hid a chuckle as Bail tried to hold it in.

While Mon and Dodonna were trying to keep from laughing, seeing 19 year old him showing in his gentle blue eyes, then gently. "Yes Master, just these two races, then retired." he said gently to him. "Alright padawan, but that's the last races for you now." Qui-Gon said and the young man nodded smiling. "Yes Father, last race, I'll call you when we get settled." he said and they nodded smiling gently at him then, as he answered him gently at that.

"Indeed stay safe, and may the force be with you." he said and Anakin nodded, as the transmission ended and he smiled in affection. "That was two weeks ago, this was the latest transmission between us. Before they made it official, they're engaged and getting married now, after the emergency comes to an end." Mace said and Valorum nodded gently. "Show us the next one, because whoever is doing this, it's a war criminal." he said sternly to that revelation.

"We know where the dart came from, he's on Kamino, probably is still there." he said and Anakn nodded sternly. "We're looking into why he left, though best guess he's been disillusioned into how things are going. And sided with Palpatine, recruited Jango, and used his family funds ad a way to pay for the army. Though that's true, and they're pretending Sifo Dyas gave executive orders to create it." he said and Anakin nodded.

"Well tell Jango from Jabba, his contract is hereby cancelled, he's been gone so long, Jabba terminated his finances here now with him. I offered on the behalf of the Jedi, if the Outer Rim ever needed help, we're there to provide it, and he took it." he said and Obi-wan and Mace nodded in approval. "Nice thinking there, that gets us access to his hyperspace lanes, and we can use that to get through to each battle, if there is a war now."

"Said on the horizon here right now." Mon said and the Committee nodded in approval. "Wise thinking that is, not just serving the republic we are, but rather the entire galaxy. But pulling back slightly here." Yoda said gently to that news. "Indeed right now, yes he's a crime lord, but he's still living being and he, like everyone else we serve, deserve assistance, if they ask for it." Mace said and Anakin nodded as he answered him then.

As they saw Padme with her hand on his shoulder gently and the senate nodded, seeing the true bond between them, he been protecting her for over a week now there. "Gathering what I know here, Kit said Jango's ship is a Firespray-31-class patrol. But watch it, because they at times upgrade that cruiser, he upgraded it with seismic charges. And a few other surprises, if you start chasing him around the galaxy." he said and they nodded.

"So we see that ship on Kamino we know we have him, after seeing the same armor, inside their closet." Obi-wan said and he nodded gently. "I just won the first race, and split the winnings, between us, and needless to say here. Sebulba's ticked off, he once again lost to me, and even better, I won it for everyone else. So the slavery is at an end here on Tatooine, so currency and business, so business is based on barter."

"And trading now, and the farmers market, at my old spaceport, so a mixture of currency and goods here, we use wupiupi coins to pay for everything. But everyone makes a living on the podrace gambling, Padme's getting a crash course. In what you told her Father, after bringing her with you now." he said and he nodded then. "Well there we go, our next good deed, we gave hope to them, by putting an end to Krayne."

"Now and you do the rest by freeing the entire network, nicely done padawan." Adi said smiling and he smiled at her then. "Indeed, nicely done Padawan, you showed true courage and strength. To face down your demons from this, remembering the good, not the bad now. You just proved here when not surrounded by us, you're a true Jedi Padawan, having the way." Qui-Gon said and Anakin smiled, knowing his self restraint.

And when around Sebulba scored him points here. "Thank you mother, and I'll be fine now father, she's safe, so everything is fine now, less stress. And he lost this battle and he will lose the war now, I'm back." he said and Yoda smiled at that in pride and nodded gently then, knowing that took care of another planet. And put his past behind him finally, first him and Shmi and now he did everyone on the planet, and the him they knew was back fully again.

'My dear young padawan healing now.' he thought to that remark gently a second time. "Well that's one way to make a difference, after we took out Krayne, you just finished it. The job for the Tatooine locals." Siri said smiling and he nodded then. "Like mom told me, it could be worse, though how worse, is what you saw at the factory. With you sending me, I took care of their worst nightmare, but self defense is never wrong here."

"As you said, I went Master Windu on him, knowing he was going down fighting." he said and she nodded. "It's okay I understand, you did what you had to do, but it's been 7 years now, time to move on, both times you had to kill in self defense. I understand that. So long as you never lost yourself is all that matters. It never sent you down it the wrong path, but strengthened you and your resolve now, to protect the innocent."

"And from a danger person, human or not, you just passed your trial of self, our you won out forever, you're a Jedi." Mace said and he nodded to him. "And there's Padme's remark on anti-slavery laws, after you took out their worst nightmare. In slave Raiders, Annie, as to that in truth, as the republic, in the hands. And of the current administration, have no time just to see to the petty problems, of every planet."

"In the galaxy, very well, everyone, so leave it to the Jedi to handle this, not just any, but the Jedi originating from the planet in question." Qui-Gon said and Mace nodded, smiling and he smiled gently. "By that we meant your predecessor, my lord, not you, we did this on your behalf, and ended a dangerous Slave Raider." Mace said and Valorum nodded. "Like my predecessor had sent you to handle Melida/Daan now." he said and Mace nodded gently then.

"Well after doing it, our popularity in the galaxy, it just got a giant leap up the charts, Father, in fact now. This is just the beginning, but I have the faint suspicion, after, we got the other slave lords. In actually betting against us, but no bloodshed or violence, put it to a wager, and my skills at podracing. The ending results, are every slave all over the galaxy will be released, and the slave networks have been deactivated."

"As a result, the ex network on Tatooine, found my skills as a Jedi, and pilot, could come big handy now. As to that that Jabba said you're welcome to come back to his planets any time you want to now. We're well loved out here right now, not just my giving them hope after the race that year, you did as well. And by us shutting down Krayne and then sending me back to finish the job." he said and they nodded, smiling.

"Yes, no need to take a chance, on the togarian slavers, when you can beat them by your piloting skills, but are you really going to race and against the best Jedi pilot in the galaxy. And said padawan has been doing this, since he was 6 years old now." Soara said as she and Siri started laughing and Mace nodded gently. "Well it's enough playing around in my training here, I just kicked it off, in proving our code of conduct."

"Said had changed fully, listen to me, but the ones you need to be worried about are Black Sun, Jabba terminated his business with them, 5 years ago. Knowing I was likely come back to check, some of their chosen planets are also slave ruled here. So be careful, as the CIS could start something with them now." he said and they nodded and the council nodded. "The Black Sun syndicate, okay." Valorum said and he nodded sternly.

"Investigating further on this, it turns out that our Zabrak survived the fall, after getting cut in half now, but the Zabrak is involved with the Shadow Collective. Who are allied with Black Sun right now." Ferus said, presenting his latest intel and Mace nodded in shock. "Then we start there, and leave the Army commanders in command of the troops. And deal with the crime in the galaxy." Valorum called out and the Loyalist Committee nodded smiling at that in relief then.

"Less focused on war, more on enforcing the safety and diplomatic views of the entire galaxy, that's what Jedi should be doing, leaving the war in the hands. And of the real military, and we arrest our Dark Jedi and Sith once and for all." Mace said gently and Yoda nodded sternly then sternly. "Agreed do that we will, more focused on ending slavery, and crime, and less focused on fighting a war, that is wiping us Jedi out one by one." Yoda said sternly and the council smiled.

"It just got better, I was with Bail, Mon and Garm, when they voted unanimously to remove the Chancellor. And re-elect Chancellor Valorum, and put him back in position of power." Soara said and Mace nodded smiling in relief then. "Well he over stepped, and 13 years is too much, so from me to him and back again, and I'm doing 8 years now." he said and Yoda and the Jedi Council nodded in relief at the news, that gave them plenty of time now.

As the chips were destroyed, and it would take time to find their safehouse houses now, as Sidious made his move. "I got an idea, just to prove everything, from the blockade, to my mother, the attacks on Padme, and the war, was all Palpatine now, by, if he attacks, at the final throttle, and when I'm on mission. And take out Dooku next, as he tried to over throw Chancellor Volurum, and claim himself Chancellor now, or better."

"And we had a very good reason to turn traitor, our true chancellor was nearly killed and I killed one of the conspirators. As good me hunted down the second, and bad me, in desperation, joined forces with the third. As our 4th is being brought back to the temple now, by my future padawan." Anakin said and Yoda nodded smiling at his idea. "Wise thinking, do that then, we will Anakin." Yaddle said and Yoda nodded sternly then.

"The scum, abusing his authority he is, till had you brush the darkside, he is." Yoda said and Mace nodded sternly in agreement to that opinion. "Like you said we're serving a corrupted system, one needing a massive over haul and start from scratch. That your idea, it worked so well, we're heroes to the slave network." Obi-wan said sternly and he nodded. "Fix the corrupted system, allow diplomacy to resume." Valorum said and they smiled.

"Agreed right now, we should be focusing more on policing the black market and illegal racing, the drug syndicates then be worrying about fighting a war. Said that is destroying our Jedi friends left and right, so we leave fighting the war to the real military." Bail said and shouts of agreement and approval ensued then gently. "Well then the space station over Kessel should be of help here." They heard from Mace in the clip and he and Padme nodded, smiling.

"Word just came back in from the senate now, boys, the Loyalist committee called impeachment of the Chancellor, voting to elect a new one. And the choices are Bail Organa, Garm Bel Iblis and Mon Mothma, they all created a new bill and law. One stating right now, that a Sith or Dark Jedi, is hereby exiled from the Republic. All properties stripped within Republic planets and forbidden to run for the office."

"Of Chancellor, watching Palpatine's face, he was hiding his fury plainly. He's our Sithmaster here alright, though I doubt that's going to stop him. As he has offices right now and here on Coruscant, and the war is about to begin." Kit said and he and Padme nodded. "May seem harsh, but Sith are destructive and evil beings, once corrupted they become demons and it's next to impossible to change back." Mace said to him and he nodded.

"I'm not faulting your opinion, if the Dark Jedi are that corrupt, how serious are the new Brotherhood of the Sith exactly, if we have 4 to 5 running loose right now." Bail asked and he shook his head. "Masters Jedi, if you're going to the arena for me, can you send this, if they decided re-elections, if they chose to impeach him, a new Chancellor here. But I'm casting my vote for trio, Palpatine lost me as a supporter." she said and they nodded.

"That 1) is we're voting for the creation of a military act, 2) I think we can make it here now, so here, that the order sum number or other. Is they're controlled by the senate, as he realizes his planned army is controlled by his successor. Is 3) to destroy their comlinks, 4), put in the arrest orders here now and for Palpatine. So if he decides to overthrow Valorum and 5) insure 95% of the order survives now here as for us."

"We're staying out here, what else did you learn?" she asked and he nodded. "Dooku retired 10 years ago, and inherited his family fortune, we hadn't heard a word. And from him sense then at the moment, my lord." Mace said and Valorum nodded sternly to the news then as they listened to the exchange carefully at that remark then. "Dooku used his family inheritance to forward the creation to create clone army, we're going there next."

"But as the Chancellor's decision is now undone…" he asked and she shook her head then. "Here it comes, she needed a much needed vacation now and even better, she gets something back from 8 years of giving now, as she gets something." Mon said in affection then. "I decided to let it go through, I hardly ever get a chance to enjoy a break. So as to that, we're on a much needed vacation here, he and me, it happened, Master, two weeks now."

"It happened now, between us, we decided immediately after the search is over, big wedding and reception, both sides, and our families, Obi-wan..." she said and he smiled looking down, knowing she was asking him to be Anakin's best man. "Yes, yeah I will Anakin, I will, I'll be your best man, my brother." he said and Anakin nodded. "We're making you and Siri, the godparents as well, brother." he said and Mace chuckled and Yoda nodded.

Knowing she meant, that they fell in love, during the month they spent time with his parents. "We would also like to make it official Master to the entire senate now, you as the council heard from us. And directly, we took that jump, time to announce to the entire senate here now. We're public knowledge, and she's considered a hero in the senate, for upstaging the Federation, but a Jedi and a Senator, both sides come together."

"It's not only right, but by the union, we created the resistance, that which the twins belong to now. Our children grow up in the resistance, fighting for what's right, not what is easy, the resistance. Said is the cornerstone, to save thousands of potential Jedi recruits now, we need to round up everyone. That never made the cut, or that, now, got sent to the Agricorps, once the takeover hits now." he said and Yoda nodded.

And Valorum nodded, as he prepared to hail his successor in the act of possible mutiny against the true republic and the Jedi had executive orders. And to arrest the traitor to the republic and a group of war criminals now at the moment here now then. "Very well, and granted another exception, you will be, Anakin, enjoy your break. And wait please till we get the next lead now, but remember you must, attachments can lead to darkside, if not careful."

"Now, you are." he said and Anakin nodded. "Yes Master I will, and I'm ready for the summons brother, but no rush." he said and they nodded, as they saw her resting her chin, on his shoulder, with pure love in her eyes, towards Anakin. And Obi-wan smiled gently at that news. "Yeah they're happy now." Bail said and Mon nodded, smiling. "Be careful guys, stay safe, and may the force be with you." he said and they nodded as Anakin answered him.

"We will, love you brother, see you in a couple months and may it be with you." he said and they smiled, as they ended it on that. "Masters Jedi: effective immediately you're to focus on the search, and manhunt, find him, and we only go so far as that. But you're not getting involved in the war, any troops assigned to you, are to be used for further negotiations. So you can keep your position as peace keepers, and the real troops are manned by military officers."

"If the Sith are trying to stir up trouble, and force you into a war you shouldn't be fighting right now in truth." he said and the council nodded in relief to his decision. "Obi-wan, if your ship is damaged, then I want you to contact Anakin, tell him you need immediate pick up. And you can report in from Naboo, as this prevent's the murder of your peers by the Sith." he said and Obi-wan nodded. "Yes my lord, we'll handle this." he said and Valorum nodded gently in relief then.

"As for further matters now that you told us this, we can take it from here, as you further the search now, but there is absolutely no rush to complete things. As we need a chance to rest and recharge our batteries here, so the final decision. All in favor of the creation of an Army for the Republic." he asked and 70% raised their hands in agreement. "All against?" he asked and 30% raised their's. "Then the point is conceded, the bill has passed." he said and they nodded.

"Obi-wan, Padawans Olin and Chion, in going to Kamino, you're to check the executive orders, and I'm authorizing 7 new ones added to the list. And the kill switch for the Jedi, if there is one, is being re-aimed at all Dark Jedi and Sithlords. The Jedi are clear of all charges, as a result of trying to prevent a hostile take over." he said and Obi-wan nodded to his decision, knowing that insured he had access to the computer files, Valorum was now chancellor, they were saved.

As they listened to his decisions and his speech, and knew they, the Jedi, were now serving a healing, and renewed Republic, as they did what they been trained for. Being peace keepers, and Anakin's fast decision got them a lot of good publicity right then, as the years went by now at the time….

Leaving Tatooine:

After a perfect month with his parents, stepbrother and sister in law, Anakin and Padme were at the spaceport, as his family stood there with him. "Stay safe my baby." Shmi said and he nodded. "I will mom, I'll be fine now that you're safe." he said and she smiled. "It was wonderful seeing you again Padme." she said and Padme smiled. "You too mom, nice meeting Cliegg, Owen, Beru." she said and they smiled and hugged her, as Anakin's friends smiled gently.

"Don't be a stranger Annie, stay in touch brother." Seek said and he nodded smiling. "I will guys I promise, take care and thanks for the help here." he said and they nodded smiling, as he exchanged hugs with them. "Well boys, best get on board now, we have a long way to go." he said and Threepio, who was coming along, nodded with a smile in the movement, as they got on board. "Just us, and our droids, captain." He said and the pilot nodded smiling gently then.

"Word just came back in, if there's a war on the horizon, the Jedi are focused on politicals, rather then war, so you're dealing with the crime syndicates, Padawan Skywalker." he said and he nodded in relief. "Well that helps right now, as the voting went through, we're voting in favor of the military creation act, only the Chancellor in control of the troops is Valorum." he said and Anakin nodded. "We're taking our time, no rush." he said and she nodded in agreement then.

As they settled in for what was going to be a three day flight…

The Investigation Continues/Obi-wan's POV:

As the trio got to work, he was staring at the bust of Count Dooku of Seranno, as Qui-Gon couldn't believe that he'd gone to the darkside, or he fell further then they expected. "Did you call for assistance?" Jedi Master Jocasta Nu asked and he nodded. "Yes, yes, I did." he said to her and she smiled knowingly. "Are you having a problem, Master Kenobi?" she asked and he nodded. "Yes, um, I'm looking for a planetary system called Kamino." he said to her then gently.

"Kamino." she repeated, never having did any research on that planet, based on everything they knew, their knowledge of the rest of the galaxy was limited right now. As Anakin having been a living example of that, he was their resident expert on slavery, podracing and Tatooine. So this was a new challenge for her to use now, as she tried to bring up her knowledge of this. As she answered him, as she stood at his side looked at the computer screen then gently then.

"It doesn't show up on the archive charts." He said to her then and she nodded gently at the news. "Kamino: It's not a system I'm familiar with, are you sure you have the right coordinates?" she asked and he nodded "According to my information, it should appear in this quadrant here..." he said pointing out the said spot. "Just south of the Rishi Maze." he said and she nodded, as she tried to dig further then and nodded as she looked at him gently then.

"I hate to say it, but it looks like the system you're searching for doesn't exist." She said and he shook his head. "Impossible, if there was nothing out there, where that dart come from exactly anyway, perhaps the archives are incomplete." he asked and she froze, and said it bitingly, offended that he was calling her a liar. "If an item does not appear in our records, it does not exist." she said and he sighed as she attended to a 11 year old padawan standing next to her.

Knowing he offended her, he could apologize at a later time, but only a Jedi could erase documents from the computer, not just any Jedi, but a Jedi Master. As once again it kept pointing back to Dooku right now, as he decided to go to Yoda next…..

Flight to Naboo/Anakin's POV:

"Hey, you!" they heard and Anakin looked at the foodline, as Artoo was grabbing them lunch, as the server droid said it firmly. "No droids." he said and Threepio translated the beeps. "You're one to talk, you bucket of bolts, you are a droid, this is for organics only. And I'm serving my master and mistress." he said and everyone started laughing, as the droid said it embarrassed then. "Get outta here!" he said and he gave a raspberry to that remark and Anakin nodded.

"Jerk." he translated to that remark and she started laughing at that, as everyone surrounding them exchanged amused looks, knowing Artoo belonged to them. As Artoo set the foot on the table for them gently, as he beeped. "There you Master, Mistress." he said and they smiled in affection. "Thank you, Artoo." she said and he gave a happy chirp. "You're welcome, Mistress." he said as he and Threepio settled in then, as they stood protectively next to their owners now.

"Must be difficult, having sworn your life to the Jedi at one point..., not being able to visit the places you like or do the things you like." she said and he nodded and completed the sentence then. "Or be with the people that I love." he said and she nodded. "Are you allowed to love, I thought that was forbidden for a Jedi." she asked and he nodded. "At times they give exceptions, if you tell them immediately, they did for us, but attachment is forbidden."

"Possession is forbidden, however compassion, which I would define as unconditional love, is central to a Jedi's life, so you might say that we are encouraged to love." he said and she nodded, seeing inside the man she loved the boy she saw as her best friend then, showing brightly in his eyes. "You've changed so much." she said and he smiled. "Ah, you haven't changed a bit, you're exactly the way I remember you in my dreams." he said and she smiled.

"So what was that story, what happened exactly?" she asked and he smiled, as he told her some of his adventures over the years he been with Obi-wan and the Jedi…

Lightsaber Training And the Revelation/Obi-wan's POV:

Watching Yoda, as he took their youngest through lightsaber drills he heard Yoda's voice give the same advice he gave him as a youngling. "Reach out, sense the Force around you." he heard softly and smiled "Use your feelings, you must." he said and then saw Obi-wan and nodded. "Younglings, Younglings!" he said and they quickly turned off theor training lightsaber. A visitor we have." he said and they smiled, and said it in unison gently, as they looked at Obi-wan.

"Hello, Master Obi-Wan." they said together and he chuckled. "Hello and I'm sorry to disturb you, Master." he said and he smiled. "What help can I be, Obi-Wan, hmm?" he asked and he explained that to him. "I'm looking for a planet described to me by an old friend, I trust him, but the systems don't show on the archive maps." he said and Yoda nodded. "Mmm, lost a planet Master Obi-Wan has, how embarrassing." he said and the group of youngling chuckled then.

'Yeah just like him to make jokes, to lessen the seriousness of the situation, what's going on here, we have only speculations nothing more. But this keeps up, instead of diplomatic solutions, we ended up on aggressive negotiations with the lightsaber, again.' Qui-Gon thought, coming in then. "Hmm, Liam, the shades, gather round the map reader, clear your minds and find Masters Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan's wayward planet, we will." he said and they relaxed then.

As Obi-wan pointed out the spot then. "It ought to be…, right here..., but it isn't: Gravity is pulling all the stars in the area towards this spot." he said and Qui-Gon nodded then. "Hmm: Gravity's silhouette remains, but the star and all the planets, disappeared they have. How can this be, hmm?" Yoda said gently and then inquired gently. "A thought: Anyone." he said and a second later, a 5 year old boy said it. "Master?" he said and they nodded gently to him then.

"Because someone erased it from the archive memory, it's still there hidden, because someone erased its location from the archive memory." he said and Qui-Gon shook his head smiling then. 'Like before, only 4 years older, Anakin figured out the solution for us, because he's the child of the prophecy, it's all connected now.' he thought smiling and Yoda chuckled. "Truly wonderful the mind of a child is: The Padawan is right." he said and then made the analysis then gently.

"Go to the center of gravity's pull, and find your planet you will, Hmm…, the data must have been erased." he said and as Obi-wan summoned the sphere back and pocketed it. "But, Master Yoda, who could empty information from the archives: that's impossible, isn't it?" he said and Yoda nodded. "Dangerous and disturbing this puzzle is: Only a Jedi could have erased those files, but who and why, harder to answer, meditate on this I will." he said and the duo nodded.

"We have a hunch, but beyond that right now, we don't know here yet, but we keep coming back to a single name." he said and Yoda nodded gently. "Hmm, indeed very disturbing that hunch is, but more information we need, before action is taken, Master Obi-wan." he said and Obi-wan nodded, as they left the stalles. "Take the trio Obi-wan, I'm ready and awaiting your report, on Kamino." Qui-Gon said and Obi-wan nodded to the orders, as he left to deal with it….

Arrival On Naboo And The Meeting With The Queen:

After arriving on Naboo, the couple and their droids were walking to palace then, as they talked. "I wasn't the youngest queen ever elected, but now that I think back on it, I'm not sure I was old enough: I'm not sure I was ready." she said and he nodded. "The people you served thought you did a good job,I heard they even tried to amend the constitution so you could stay in office." he said and she chuckled, as they heard a gentle remark from Threepio as he looked around.

"Indeed this is a very beautiful planet." he said and she smiled at that. "I was relieved when my two terms were up, but when the queen asked me to serve as senator, I couldn't refuse her." she said and Anakin nodded, as he answered her. "I agree with her: I think the Republic needs you, I'm glad that you chose to serve." he said to her and she smiled, as they arrived. "At ease everyone, hello boys, been a long time." Anakin said and they nodded, as their leader said it.

"I'm sorry son, but do I know you." he said and he smiled. "Tatooine, 10 years ago, I invited the Senator and Master Qui-Gon, Jar Jar and Artoo to stay for a few days. As you protected the girls, before bringing me back with you to first Coruscant then here." he said and the guards chosen for that all smiled. "Anakin, Anakin Skywalker?" he asked and Anakin nodded. "Been a long time Captain, but it's good to see you." he said and he smiled in affection gently then.

"Been far too long son, we missed you, I take it she took a sabbatical, and you're on protection duty if you're here." he said and Anakin nodded. "I am, in an emergency trip back to my planet, I ended up saving my mother, so our pay it forward just ended. You just freed the entire slave network on my planet, after saving my mother." he said and they nodded. "After everything you have done for us, it's the least we can do." Governor Sio Bibble said to him then smiling gently.

"Shall we." Anakin said and they nodded. "Your Majesty, I'm Senior Jedi Padawan Anakin Skywalker, before we go into business, there is a change that came up here. But we would like to announce our engagement." he said and she nodded smiling at that news. "So the Jedi and the Loyalist Committee made that change and you been seeing each other now. Since Zan Arbor was arrested, I understand, very well." she said and they nodded smiling as Padme sat down.

"The reports got backlogged, in truth, we think this withdrawal from the republic was a facade, our mysterious Sithmaster in league with Nute Gunray is at it again." she said and they nodded. "You think the Viceroy is once again in league with the Sithmaster who's apprentice barely killed Qui-Gon is at it again, what of the final decisions." he said and she nodded. "Chancellor Palpatine over stepped his boundaries we re-instated Valorum." she said and he nodded then.

"If the senate votes to create an army, under Chancellor Palpatine now, I'm sure it's going to push us into a civil war, one that would keep on killing the Jedi Order. Calling on added schemes, we believe Nute Gunray is at it again, but Chancellor Valorum called war crimes." she said and he nodded. "It's unthinkable: There hasn't been a full-scale we since the formation of the Republic." Sio said and Queen Jamilia nodded gently to her as she answered her then.

"Do you see any way through negotiations, to bring the separatists back into the Republic?" she asked and he sighed. "If he sided with our Sithmaster, he's convinced here what he's doing should bring peace to the republic, but Sith are cold blooded and murderous. I have no doubt that once they serve their purpose everyone in the Separatist leadership is being slaughtered." he said and Padme nodded sternly as she finished at the news then, knowing he was right.

"Agreed, not if they feel threatened, my guess is they'll turn to the Trade Federations or the Commerce Guilds for help." she said and Sio nodded. "It's outrageous, but after four trials in the Supreme Court, Nute Gunray is still the viceroy of the Trade Federation. I fear the senate is powerless to resolve this crisis." he said and Jamilia sighed gently then. "We must keep our faith in the Republic: The day we stop believing democracy can work is the day now finally."

"That we lose it." she said then and Padme nodded. "Let's pray that day never comes." she said and Anakin nodded. "Agreed, my allegiance is to the entire galaxy: to democracy." he said and she smiled gently. "In the meantime, we must consider your own safety." She said and Sio nodded. "Your parents, then your family estate, Padme?" Anakin asked and she nodded gently. "I was thinking we would stay in the lake country, there are some places up there now."

"Said that are very isolated, so we will be there now." she said and they nodded. "Good, good, then it's all settled." she said and they sighed in relief, knowing coming forward helped, they could get married and live a normal life….

Kamino And The Investigation Furthers/Obi-wan's POV:

Arriving in orbit over Kamino then, he detached from his ship's hyperdrives, and flew in from orbit then. "There it is, R4, right where it should be: Our missing planet Kamino." he said and Arfour beeped gently. "Guys stay up there, be ready to intercept Jango if he tries to escape." he said gently to the trio then. "Yes Master." they said together and he nodded, as he came in then. "Master Jedi: The prime minister is expecting you." she said and he smiled then gently.

"I'm expected?" he asked and she nodded. "Of course: He is anxious to meet you, after all these years, we were beginning to think you weren't coming, now, please, this way." she said and he followed her to a meeting room then. "May I present Lama Su: prime minister of Kamino. And this is Master Jedi." she started to say and he supplied his name. "Obi-Wan Kenobi." hr said and he nodded. "I trust you're going to enjoy your stay." he said and Obi-wan nodded gently.

"Please." he said and Obi-wan sat down as he down across from him then gently then. "And now to business: You will be delighted to hear that we are on schedule are ready. And with a million more well on the way." he said and Obi-wan nodded smiling. "That's good news, thank you for alerting me to that." he said and Lama Su nodded. "Please tell your Master Sifo-Dyas: that his order will be met on time." he said and Obi-wan froze, realizing this was a forgery then firmly.

"I'm sorry, Master…" he repeated and he said it gently. "Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas is still a leading member of the Jedi Council..., is he not?" he asked and Obi-wan shook his head. "Master Sifo-Dyas was killed almost ten years ago." he said and Lama Su nodded. "Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that, but I'm sure he would have been proud of the army we've built for him." He said and Obi-wan nodded, knowing this matched Anakin's interpretation to the prophecy exactly right now.

"The army?" he said and Lama Su nodded gently. "Yes: A clone army, and I must say, one of the finest we've ever created." he said and Obi-wan nodded. "Tell me, Prime Minister, when my master first contacted you about the army, did, did he say who it was for?" he asked and he nodded. "Of course he did: This army is for the Republic." he said and Obi-wan nodded. "Who has access to security for the army exactly?" he asked and he smiled as he answered him.

"Padawan Skywalker, the supreme Chancellor and certain members of the Jedi council." he said and Obi-wan nodded. "Then Supreme Chancellor Valorum, would like to incorporate these order numbers into the chips, if there are any." he said and passed him the list, and Lama Su read the numbers and nodded in approval. "Very well, but you must be anxious to inspect the units for yourself." he said and Obi-wan nodded in relief, knowing he just prevented a bloodbath.

"That's why I'm here, I wish to see these troops." he said and he nodded, as he lead him to the cloning stations, as he prepared to see the human adult face, of the bounty hunter. That attacked and killed the changeling that nearly exposed him then….
