Chapter 2

A new allie

In Chancellor Palpatines office the concerned leader of the Republic was conversing with three members of the Jedi council Mace Windu, Ki-Adi-Mundi, and Master Yoda. Concerned about the recent developments with the thousands of star systems leaving the Republic to join the separatists while also debating on the creation of an army.

I don't know how much longer I can hold off the vote, my friends said the concerned Chancellor. More and more systems are joining the separatists.

If they do break away-

I will not let this Republic that has stood for a thousand years be split in two. " My negotiations will not fail".said Palpatine.

If they do, you must realize there aren't enough Jedi to protect the Republic. We're keepers of the peace not soldiers Master Windu said.

Master Yoda, do you think it will come to war Palpatine asked?

Hmmm the dark side clouds everything. Impossible to see the future is Master Yoda said.

(Huttese) The Loyalist Committee has arrived your honor.

Good send them in. We will discuss this later said the Chancellor.

The loyalists entered the chancellors' office alongside senator Amidala after having dealt with her incident upon arrival to the planet.

Senator Amidala, your tragedy on the landing platform terrible. Seeing you alive brings warm feelings to my heart said Master Yoda.

Do you have any idea who was behind this attack Padme asked?

Our intelligence points to disgruntled spice miners on the moons of Naboo Master Windu said.

I think that Count Dooku was behind it Padme said.

He is a political idealist, not a murderer Master Mundi intervened.

You know milady Count Dooku was once a Jedi. He couldn't assasinate anyone. It's not his character explained master Windu.

But for certain Senator...in grave danger you are said Master Yoda.

Master Jedi may I suggest...the senator be placed...under the protection of your graces the chancellor implied.

Do you really think that's a wise decision under these stressful times Senator Amidala asked?

Chancellor if I may comment I don't believe-

The situation is that serious? No but I do Senator. I realize all too well that additional security...might be disruptive for you...but perhaps someone you're familiar with. An old friend, like Master Kenobi the chancellor suggested.

That's possible. He's just returned from a border dispute on Ansion Master Windu explained.

Do it for me milady please? The thought of losing you...is unbearable the Chancellor begged.

I will have Obi-Wan report to you immediately milady said Master Windu.

Thank you Master Windu Senator Amidala replied.

Before you all leave I have received some intelligence of a new race called Cybertronians they are a race of sentient machines that can take the form of any vehicle or other machine they choose Chancellor Palpatine explained.

Do they pose any threat to the Republic Padme asked?

There are two races of cybertronians one are the autonomous robotic organisms or autobots who desire peace the other is the decepticons who are a destructive and violent race that thinks all organic life should be destroyed the chancellor said.

We recently received this transmission from the autobots leader Optimus Prime letting us know of their intentions and concerning Senator Amidalas current situation said the Chancellor.

Chancellor Palpatine lowered the shades as the message was playing.

Greetings honorable representatives of the Republic. My name is Optimus Prime leader of the autobots. We mean you no harm all we want is to find the allspark so that we can rebuild our home planet Cybertron. Our sources believe that Senator Padme Amidala has one of five keys that could help us locate the allspark. No doubt that our enemies the decepticons have already tried to assasinate the Senator. We are sending one of our soldiers to help with the security of the senator. I hope that we can meet again in person under better circumstances.

Suddenly a small unknown vehicle appeared before the senators and the Jedi and began to transform into a robot.

Greetings my name is Wheelie former decepticon and I'm here for the safety of the senator he said.

You were a decepticon Senator Amidala asked?

Yeah but I decided to switch sides because they weren't treating me right "miserable friggin' decepticons" Wheelie said.

Then it's settled Wheelie and Master Kenobi will be charged with the security of Senator Amidala. I also trust that existence of the cybertronians will remain secret until the time is right said Palpatine.

I will inform Obi-Wan of this information Mace Windu said. With that the senators and the Jedi left.

Once again I don't own the rights to Star Wars or Transformers they belong to George Lucas Michael Bay and whoever else is in charge of the franchises keep reading and looking for more in the story
