	Hmmm, fate is pushing them together. So, Obi-Wan and the Queen like each other. With no pesky Anakin to get in the way? But Obi-Wan shouldn't hide. He's done very well for himself. And I do wonder what Qui-Gon will think when he finds out. And then there's that Palpatine guy who's probably up to no good..... -----signature----- Links to all fics -- http://boards.theforce.net/Message.aspx?topic=25405090&brd=10304&start=26223917 The Heart of the Jedi -- http://boards.theforce.net/b/b1/26013327 ---- Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, JA and everything you wanted to know about lightsabers

	it's good to see things go right for obi this post! he has a good job with good people, and it seems that queen amidala has taken in interest in him! of course, qui-gon showing up could complicate things.. but while obi doesn't welcome his presence now, i think some good could come of their meeting.. a very enjoyable post, as unusual! again, things went in a direction i didn't expect! i look forward to seeing what's next -----signature----- Jedi Consular- Acolytes of Revan A Jedi's Sacrifice- my kotor fic http://boards.theforce.net/before_the_saga/b10475/22040803/p1/

VADERLVR64 It will be interesting to see how things play out between Padme and Obi-Wan I like them together, although I am not sure how far their relationship will go. Thank you ardavenport Hmmm, fate is pushing them together. So, Obi-Wan and the Queen like each other They are a team only they don't know it yet. Obi-Wan and Padme have so much in common.

	Later in the evening Ben was keeping an eye on Lance and Sabè, he had hoped to speak to the Queen once more before the evening was over, unfortunately the Queen was inundated with people wanting her attention, and so Ben was left standing in the corner with nothing to do. He noticed Master Jinn and Master Windu were staring at him, and he felt uncomfortable having two Jedi watching his every move. So after some whining on Lance's part he convinced the young man that it was time to retire for the evening as it was getting quite late. Master Jinn watched as Ben and Lance spoke to Senator Mon Mothma, and then the two boys left the room. “I have a distinct feeling that I know that young man Ben” Qui-Gon told Mace. “Really Qui, what makes you think that?” Mace queried. “It is just a feeling, and I have caught him glancing at me a few times throughout the evening. However whenever I get too close to him he ducks into the crowd and disappears, like he senses that I want to speak to him.” “Is he force sensitive Qui?” Mace asked. “No, I don’t think so, at least I don’t sense anything from him, so either he is not force sensitive or he has extraordinary shields.” Mace shook his head. “Come on Qui… that boy would only be… what Nineteen or Twenty at the most, and he’s not a Jedi so how would he have shields that impressive…..one’s that even the great Qui-Gon Jinn could not penetrate” Mace chuckled. “Perhaps I will ask Senator Mon Mothma about him” Qui-Gon stated. Mace looked around and remarked “Well it will have to be tomorrow, I think the Senator is retiring to the guests’ rooms as well, and I think that is a wonderful idea my self. It has been a long day of celebrations and tomorrow will be the Senatorial Conference and treaty signing. So you can ask her then after the meeting. Our ship back to Corruscant doesn’t leave until tomorrow night.” Qui-Gon nodded. “Yes I will definitely ask her tomorrow; I just sense something, and I would like to know more about him before I leave!”…. Before dawn the next morning, Ben woke with a start. The force was forewarning him of an allusive danger, it was still dark out, and so he quietly peeked into Lance’s room. He was still fast asleep. Ben checked the windows and every thing was secure. The feeling through the force was subtle, and he sensed it wasn’t Lance who was in danger. He shook his head when he realised who it was that the force was warning him about. “Master Jinn?” Ben Whispered. “That’s absurd, surely the great Jedi Jinn, doesn’t need a body guard?” Ben quickly dressed and attached his weapons to his belt, and walked down the hall and out onto the balcony. It went the full length of the building, and it was divided into sections so that each of the guest rooms had their own balcony with a railing separating them. Ben was surveying the gardens below and had lowered his shields just enough to sense for unusual occurrences. He sensed someone in the shadows near a group of trees. Whoever it was appeared to be crouching down. Ben quietly moved to the edge of the balcony and brought his shields back up. Gracefully and silently he leaped over the balcony and landed in the garden without a sound. He moved quietly and buttoned up his coat. He didn’t like to advertise the fact that he was armed. His blaster was under his coat, and it was a lengthy coat coming down to his thigh. He also had several Daggers attached to his belt and hidden on his lower leg was the sabre that Master Durron had given him a few years ago. It was strapped in a specially made holster on the inside of his leg; his trousers were baggy and tucked into his boots. So no one could see the bulge of the sabre. Stealthily he moved along the thicket until he was standing under the alcove at the garden wall. Ben was surprised when he identified who the person was. The man was kneeling near the trees, and he was meditating. The Sun was only half a cycle from peering over the horizon, and Ben certainly didn’t want to be caught spying on a Jedi in broad daylight. So he quietly made his way to the entrance and slipped out. The Jedi Master had sensed the presence of someone approaching him, and knew that who ever it was, certainly was taking particular care not to be seen. He felt no danger from this person, only nervousness. His senses told him that it was the young man who had been dancing with the Queen, his aura was the same. Qui-Gon opened his eyes and could see him standing in the shadow of the garden wall. Ben hesitated there for a few minutes, and then he silently moved off taking great care not to make any sound. Once Ben had left the garden Qui-Gon quickly jumped to his feet and hurried off in the same direction. He followed Ben from a distance and kept his shields tight; he was amused at the youth’s antics. First he seemed to be just wandering around, however as Qui-Gon studied him closely, he realised he was doing a security check. (This Ben may be young, yet he seems to have the knowledge of much more experienced and older man) Qui-Gon thought. By the time the sun had full risen over the estate and kitchen hands were beginning to gather to prepare first meal, Ben had settled just outside the open window of the kitchen. He was sitting on a bench and in front of it was a fountain. Qui-Gon hid him self from view behind some bushes at the other end of the pathway in the alcove and studied Ben. The young man had his arms resting on the top of the bench and his face was lifted to the sun. His legs were stretched out in front of him and it appeared he was soaking up the morning glory. Qui-Gon’s eyes methodically went from the youths head taking in the style of his hair. It was done in multiple braids and the top half of braids were pulled to the back of his head, and then plaited together to form one shorter braid laying flat against the back of his head. Neatly hanging down from ear level was a row of thin braids very similar to the braid an apprentice wears behind his ear, with one difference. There were many of them all the way around from one ear to the other, and they were long enough to touch his shoulder. Although he was sunning himself his skin was pale and flawless, his smooth face made him look younger than he probably was. He appeared to be quite fit and healthy, and Qui-Gon noticed his boots were very clean even though he had been walking through the garden, they were highly polished. Qui-Gon mused (He is probably a very neat and tidy person) As he watched; Ben stretched and got to his feet and then he turned to face the kitchen window. He stood there for a moment and then to Qui-Gon’s surprise, Ben raised his hand towards the window and in an instant a muffin and a muju fruit flew through the air and Ben caught them. Qui-Gon shook his head (surely he didn’t just use the force). He thought. Qui-Gon didn’t want to drop his shields; he didn’t want Ben to know he was watching him. However If he dropped his shielding he would be able to feel the residual waves of the force, but then Ben would know that he was spying on him. Qui-Gon decided to show himself, he would approach Ben on the pretence he was out for an early morning walk. He ran back a few metres and then dropped his shields and began to walk. By the time he got to the corner where he had been standing only seconds before, he hoped to see Ben still near the bench. He was disappointed the bench was empty and Ben was no where to be seen. Qui-Gon kept walking and when he got to the bench he sat down pretending to be admiring the fountain. He opened himself up to the force and there just floating away in the breeze was a fragment of a force presence. Qui-Gon knew now that he had to speak to the lad. So he got up and walked towards the exit. The smells of muffins and breads were wafting down the corridor, and Qui-Gon wondered if Ben had gone to the dining hall he hoped so. It was time for first meal, and many of the guests were starting to arrive. He was quite disappointed when he could not see the young man anywhere inside the hall. Mace had arrived and saw Qui-Gon standing in the doorway, so he called him over to the table. Senator Mon Mothma was already seated and so was Queen Amidala. He bowed low and took his place next to Mace; he wanted to tell Mace what he had discovered. However the Queen was speaking to the Senator, and he did not want to interrupt. Several minutes later Qui-Gon saw Lance being ushered in by Ben. Qui-Gon hoped he would come over so he could get a closer look at him, but Ben just pointed Lance in the right direction and watched him until he sat down and then Ben disappeared back out the door. A great deal of conversation encompassed the meal, and Qui-Gon wasn’t really listening, until the name ‘Ben’ came up. Queen Amidala was asking the Senator where she had found such an adorable and cute companion for Lance. The Senator laughed at her description of the young man and said. “Yes if only I was Twenty years younger, I might fight you for him, I noticed you dancing with him last night.” Mon Mothma smiled. “He must really like you Your Highness’ because in the three years he has been with us, I have never seen him come that close to a woman before. He is actually quite shy especially around people he doesn’t know.” “Where did you find him?” Qui-Gon ventured to ask. “Actually we knocked him down at the space port on Chandrila.” she smiled. “He was coming through the arrival gates at the same time as we were, and a zealous official pushed him out of the way to allow us to go through. The poor boy was pushed into another passenger who hit him, knocking him down to the ground. He slid into my legs, and even though it was not his fault, the poor boy scrambled to his feet and started to apologise. Anyway I sorted the official out for being so rude, and then I directed Ben to the employment office” She explained. “However our paths crossed again later that day in the Park. I had taken Lance there for a bit of free time, as the Park is across the way from my office. One of my political opponents sent some one to kidnap my son; however Ben was in the park and rescued Lance. So I gave him a job and that is the short story” she clarified. “You didn’t know anything about him then?” Qui-Gon questioned. “No not really, he told me he was an orphan, and he had been working on a transport. He decided to get off on Chandrila to look for a job. I am very glad that he did.” she answered. “Did you not think it wise to have him checked out by the authorities Senator? Just in case he isn’t who he claims to be.” Qui-Gon persisted with his questioning. Senator Mon Mothma stared at Qui-Gon for a moment and then she stated quite emphatically. “Master Jinn I realise that it is a Jedi’s way to be cynical and to not trust anyone until you have thoroughly scanned their every fibre with your force….. However I have perfectly good instincts too, and mine tell me that Ben is a very likable, friendly, compassionate, trustworthy and honest young man. Perhaps if your Jedi Order had more young men like Ben in it, then the general consensus that Jedi have no feelings at all, would be banished by the considerate and understanding nature that Ben has!” Mon Mothma being a Senator knew very well how pompous Qui-Gon could be. She also knew of his troubles with his apprentices. She thought of him as arrogant and boorish. (Of all the Jedi to send for this negotiation) she wondered why it had to be him. So she objected fervently that he would dare to indicate that she couldn’t tell the difference between good people and bad. She got up from the table and excused her self; she was annoyed with the superiority of the Jedi and wanted to cool off by going for a walk. “Well you certainly know how to stick your foot in your mouth, Qui-Gon!” Mace whispered to him. “For force sake Qui-Gon that young man has been in her employ for three years. I am sure she knows him well enough by now, especially if he is her sons’ constant companion. What possessed you to try and put doubts in her mind about him?” Mace berated him. “Mace I think he is force sensitive? I was watching him earlier, and I think he levitated a muffin and a piece of fruit out from the kitchen” he revealed. “What do you mean you think he did….. didn’t you sense him doing it through the force?” Mace asked incredulously. “I was following him, and I had my shields up to maximum. He was standing at the open window, so I am not sure if some one in the kitchen didn’t throw them out to him. However, when I got to the bench were he had been sitting. I opened up and could sense a slight trace of force presence. “Why were you following him Qui-Gon?” Mace quizzed. Qui-Gon told him the whole story, from when he was meditating in the garden in the early hours of the morning, to following Ben and him sitting on the bench near the Kitchen window. “So why are you so interested, it is not like he is a Jedi initiate ready to become an apprentice? and yet even if he were, you have stated emphatically that you will never take another apprentice as long as you live.” “I don’t know Mace; there is something about him, something familiar. Whatever it is, it is elusive, and it is just out of my reach”. Qui-Gon admitted. “Come my friend, I think a walk in the fresh air will do us good also. They excused themselves and went in the opposite direction to the Senator. “We have several hours before the conference, let’s talk” Mace declared. They walked down the rows of grape vines and Qui-Gon asked Mace a question that was burning a hole in his consciousness. “Mace do you remember Obi-wan Kenobi?” Qui-Gon asked. “Of course I do, he was a bright boy, it was just a shame he got caught up with Bruck Chun!” Mace indicated. “Mace do you think Obi-wan was the offender, when I made the decision to choose Bruck. Or do you think he was the victim of Bruck’s devious plans.” “What I think really doesn’t matter any more Qui-Gon…. The past is gone, Obi-wan Kenobi is gone.” he confirmed, as he didn’t want to make Qui-Gon feel worse about his decisions of the past. “Is he really gone Mace? Yoda never did find any conclusive evidence that he died in the volcanic eruption?” Qui-Gon admitted. “Well you know Master Yoda, and when he came back from his sabbatical and found the boy gone, He was quite vocal, in his disapproval of the Councils decision, and he personally took over the search for him. Maybe if that volcano hadn’t erupted and fire hadn’t ripped through the Corps dormitory and offices, there might have been a record of his movements.” Mace confirmed. “Anyway that volcano killed half the people that were stationed in the Agri Corps. Most of them were either buried in the lava or killed by the ensuing fires. I am sure if Obi-wan Kenobi was still alive, Yoda would have found him. Yoda was very determined to bring him home, and he was very sad when he came back empty handed. I asked him if he had found any evidence, and he just shrugged and said the force was silent." “Yes I suppose you are right, it is just that Ben seems to bring back memories that I don’t want to think about” Qui-Gon said uncomfortably. Qui-Gon sighed and shook his head. “Come on Mace it is too nice a day to spoil it with the past, let’s go down to the Lake.” He said changing the subject..... As they approached the lake they could see two people standing on the wharf, the smaller one was fishing while the taller one watched. As soon as they got to the wharf Qui-Gon recognised the two. “Mace, it is Ben and Lance” “They must like fishing” Mace answered. “Lets go and talk to them, perhaps you can check him out and see if he ‘is’ force sensitive” They were half way down the wharf when Ben leant in and whispered something to Lance. Lance turned and saw the two Jedi and then nodded to Ben. Qui-Gon whispered to Mace “Ben probably told Lance not to speak to us” “Why would he do that Qui?” Mace questioned. “He just seems to want to avoid us” he answered. “Well where he is going to go! dive in the lake fully clothed.” Mace smiled. “What do you sense from him now” Mace asked. “Nothing, I sense nothing, and that is strange also. Most beings have some sort of feelings that are present in the force, unless they are shielding” Qui-Gon inferred. “Yes that is strange; I get the same sense of nothing as you do.” Mace agreed. “I caught one Ben!..... I finally caught a fish.” Lance said excitedly. “I knew you would catch one eventually” Ben ruffled the boy’s hair. They pulled the fish in and Lance held it up happily. Lance turned around as the two Jedi arrived. “Hello” he smiled. “You’re the Jedi from Corruscant aren’t you?” “Yes, I am Master Jinn, and this is Master Windu” he confirmed. “I am Lance, and this is Ben” Lance waved his hand at Ben. Ben nodded but didn’t speak and he focused his eyes on Lance. “Nice fish you have got there…..What are you going to do with it?” Mace asked. “Throw it back in!” he exclaimed. “Really I thought you would want to cook it and eat it?” Qui-Gon questioned. “No I don’t like eating fish, and Ben says if you do not need it, then let it live” He answered. He handed the fish to Ben who removed the hook gently, and then put it back in the water. They all watched the fish splash as it flipped its tail fin and disappear under the water. “So Ben, Don’t you eat fish either?” Mace asked. “No!” Ben answered bluntly while he was facing the lake. “Not very talkative are you Ben!” Qui-Gon grilled. Ben turned to face them both and spoke. “If I have something to say, then I am quite able to do so. Is there something we can help you with?” Ben questioned them. “No not really, it is just a nice morning, and we thought a walk down to the lake would be nice…. So tell me Ben……what ‘is’ your last name?” Qui-Gon inquired…... “Yes the lake is very nice at this time of the morning, usually ‘quiet and peaceful’ a person can come here and not be disturbed if that is what he wants.” Ben snapped ignoring the question about his name. “Lance I think it is time to go, your Mother will be expecting you soon.” Ben implied as he bent down to pick up the fishing equipment. “Sure Ben” Lance agreed. Ben brushed past the two Jedi in an attempt to head off down the wharf; however Qui-Gon was persistent and very determined. He grabbed Bens arm as he walked past. The sudden grip on Bens arm brought back memories of grief and pain; however he quickly dampened the feelings, pushing them back behind impressive shields. “Ben I am sorry if you think we are intruding on your privacy and peace. We certainly didn’t mean to. It is just that you seem so familiar to me, and I feel that we may have met at some time in the past…..Do I know You?” Qui-Gon inquired. Ben stared at him for a moment and was completely devoid of emotion when he spoke. “No, ‘Master Jinn’ I am absolutely certain – you - do not know me at all….and besides I do not travel in your Jedi world. So please excuse us as we have somewhere else to be right now!” Ben said emphatically as he pulled his arm out of Qui-Gon’s grasp and walked off with Lance. Mace watched Ben walk off, and then he said to Qui-Gon “What did you sense when you touched him?” “Grief and pain flared for just a moment, and then it was gone. There is more to that boy than we can see” Qui-Gon said sadly. tbc... -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear. Links to Stories in my Bio.

	another brilliant chapter you really did a fantastic job of keeping a bit of tension and suspense throughout the chapter, as qui-gon did all he could to find out more about ben. even after all this time, you still manage to impress me with your skill as a writer every new story of yours i read, i start to think that it might be your best one yet. you never fail to entertain and surprise me. ah yes, and my favorite part Senator Mon Mothma stared at Qui-Gon for a moment and then she stated quite emphatically. “Master Jinn I realise that it is a Jedi’s way to be cynical and to not trust anyone until you have thoroughly scanned their every fibre with your force….. However I have perfectly good instincts too, and mine tell me that Ben is a very likable, friendly, compassionate, trustworthy and honest young man.

	Ben and Lance put their fishing gear back in the shed and went searching for Sabè. Lance and Sabè were going to spend some time together in the recreation rooms, with some of the other children of Ambassadors and Senators while the Treaty signing was underway. The room was secure and Ben had stationed several guards at the door and inside the room. He knew they would be alright in the rec room. They were in no danger, however the uneasy feeling Ben had was making him be extra cautious with the young ones. He didn’t want any distractions while the treaty meeting was on, and he was going to keep his eyes on the Neomiodians. He didn’t trust them either. Ben smiled at that thought. He wondered how much more he and the Queen had in common. He sighed; he wished he had a chance to get to know her more. However he knew that their paths probably wouldn’t cross again, once the treaty was signed. He didn’t travel in her circle either. Ben shook his head. (Concentrate on the here and now) he thought and then he shuddered.(That was a Jedi saying!)… Ben started to walk down the hall, he wanted to check on the Delegates and make sure everything was as it should be. Nute Gunray was a slimy character and he wanted to find out what he was up to. There was something about the Neomiodians that sent warnings up and down his spine. There were seven of them altogether, and the six other members of the trade federation, were a bunch of puppets, and backed every proposal that Nute Gunray put forward. The Delegate from D’larah, Minister Tumleh had arrived while they were down at the lake, and was taking a shower after the long trip. So Ben knew the treaty meeting would go ahead shortly. However the sense of impending threat was getting stronger as the meeting got closer. So he decided to snoop around a bit more. As he made his way down the corridor, He wondered if the Jedi had sensed the impending danger. He chuckled. (Of course they would, they are Jedi) His concentration lapsed for a moment and he sensed someone familiar just around the corner heading his way. He smiled and held out his arms, just as one of the Queens handmaidens’s, turned the corner and bumped into him. “Oh!.... oh Ben!.... you scared me! she blurted out as he balanced her with his arms. “My Lady” you seem to be in a hurry? Is there anything I can help you with?” He spoke softly smiling at the hand maiden, for although she was dressed as one, he knew instinctively who she was. “Oh! she stammered….. “I didn’t see you. I was… … forgive me, I was just.. ummm… going on an errand for ..err.. my Queen!" she said unconvincingly. “You have me at a disadvantage, ‘My Lady’ he raised an eyebrow at her. “Excuse Me!” she asked confused. “You seem to know my name, and yet I don’t remember meeting any of the Queens handmaiden’s, I am sure we haven’t met” he mused. “Oh.. yes…. that’s right, I am sorry.. My name is Padmè” She said blushing. “I heard the Queen mention your name.” “Well then ‘Padmè I am delighted to meet you, I must say the Queen certainly knows how to pick her hand maidens, you are beautiful” he smiled as he bowed towards her and grasped her hand kissing it. She turned a shade of pink with embarrassment. “Thank you, ahh… did you enjoy your dance last night?” She mumbled trying to think of some excuse to get away from him. “As a matter of fact I did enjoy the dance she is very light on her feet.” He implied. Padmè kept looking over Ben’s shoulder to the door of the Neomiodians apartment, which was just down the corridor, as though she was expecting them to open the door any minute. Padmè started to get nervous as she didn’t want to tell Ben that she was snooping. “I had better go” she whispered. “Do you have an errand that involves the Neomiodians, because these are their rooms, would you like me to knock for you?” he asked boldly. “No! “No! she whispered pulling him by the hand. She dragged him away and down the hall, going into an empty room. Ben wondered what she was up too. He sensed her flustered state, yet he also sensed her determination. Once inside and the door were closed he decided to let her off the hook. She was pacing trying to think of how she could explain what she was doing in the hall that wouldn’t sound stupid, when he stopped her with his warm hand on her shoulder. “My Lady can I confide in you?” he asked. Startled she said. “Confide in me? why yes of course” she answered. “When we crashed into each other out there” he indicated to the hall. “I was actually snooping, I have a feeling that the Neomiodians are up to no good.” he stated. She was stunned for a moment and then gradually sunk down onto the couch. She blushed again and then said “So was I and I feel the same as you do” she answered. “I suppose the Queen knows what you are doing ‘My Lady’…… or does she do her own snooping?” He stated. It took a moment for what he had just said to sink in to her mind. “What…what did you say?” she asked. “Snooping … does ‘Your Highness’ do her own snooping… you know of course, that snooping around is risky business and dangerous”. he confirmed. She was stunned, as no one had ever discovered her in disguise before. “How did you know who I was? I do not have any make up on, or a headdress on!” “When I danced with you last night I saw more than the paint and the elaborate head dress. I saw the woman underneath all that camouflage, and I see her standing here now. I must say that you are more beautiful now than I ever imagined”. he said shyly. She stood up and crossed the room to stand in front of him; Padmè reached for his hands and held them close to her body. “When the Treaty is signed and all is well I would like to see you, I would like to get to know you better Ben” she smiled. He squeezed her hands and said. “I would feel privileged to get to know you better ‘Padmè, however right now I believe we should tell security about our suspicions, concerning the Neomiodians, and then I will escort you to the treaty signing ‘your highness” “I am not a weakling, Ben…. I have been trained in the arts of combat, and perhaps later I will show you just how much I can do to defend my self.” she twisted Bens arm around behind his back. He knew the move was coming, but he thought he would play along with her. Padmè’ was gloating that she had Ben in an arm lock, until unexpectedly he bent over and flipped her over his body. Normally the person would have crashed to the floor; however Ben softened her fall with the force, and suspended her in mid air. “What.. How…. how did you do that?” she whispered as he gently lowered her to her feet. “I am not a weakling, Padmè, I have been trained in the art of combat also.” he smirked. She studied him for a moment and then leaned in and kissed him. That kiss silenced him, he had never kissed a girl before, and she had guessed it. She smirked and then said “I think you need some more training in this area, that was a very weak kiss. Perhaps I can give you some lessons later?” It was Bens turn to blush “Yes, perhaps Your highness” he whispered. “I think we had better go” Obi-wan started to open the door but the force warned him, he stopped and peered through the crack. The Neomiodians had left their room and were heading to the conference hall. He whispered to Padmè’. “They are coming this way.” They could hear them talking as they lingered in the hall, discussing their plans. Gradually they made there way past the room where Padmè and Ben were hidden. They were right the Neomiodians were not to be trusted. They were plotting a take over and were going to change the treaty in their favour, and then kill everyone. Ben waited until they were out of sight before Padmè and he left the room. “We have to warn the delegates” she said. “And alert security” she looked at Ben who was seemingly lost in thought. “Ben what is wrong” she asked. “Your people, I sense confusion and fear, something is happening out side. He raced over to the window and in the courtyard were hundreds of droids, rounding up the people. The droids were armed with blasters. “Blast” he said. “I did not sense them.” “Ben, what do you mean you did not sense them” she questioned. “I am force sensitive; not in a Jedi way but well enough to know when danger is present, but unfortunately droids are made of metal and have no presence. They have surrounded the Palace, and are most likely inside as well. Basically the Neomiodians are cowards, so it makes sense that they would need an army to help them. They are going to block the trade agreement”. “But why?” she asked. “I don’t know, but I must stop them.” Ben confirmed. “We will stop them” she smiled. Ben could tell she was going to be stubborn about this, so he agreed, and sent her to find her Captain Panaka and as many security as she could find. He would go to the conference room….. In the conference room the pretend Queen was just welcoming the delegates and the Jedi Ambassadors. Qui-Gon and Mace Windu had felt subtle warnings through the force and had checked everyone coming in to the room. Nothing seemed out of place, but still the apprehension persisted. When the Neomiodians arrived they were accompanied by six cloaked beings. As they moved into the room Master Windu stepped forward. “What is the meaning of this? who are these people and why are they hooded.” he demanded. Master Jinn placed his hand on his sabre ready, and stood next to Mace. The Neomiodian Delegate Gunray pretended to choke, and the two Jedi rushed towards him, as they did the Delegate collapsed to the floor and the six cloaked beings revealed themselves as droids. All six droids, shot a strange beam towards the Jedi, it turned out to be a force inhibitor beam. Both Jedi collapsed and in the same instant several more droids entered the room pointing blasters at everyone. Gunray got to his feet and barked orders. “Secure the Jedi, and check the rest for weapons”. Two droids bound the wrists of the Jedi, and secured a bracelet on their wrists, cutting off their connection to the force. They were dragged into the corner with the rest of the Delegates, and only the Queen was left at her desk. Several of her handmaidens were pushed against the wall with the Delegates. “Now... Gunray snarled “Instead of signing a treaty to allow open trade between Naboo and the rest of the Federation, I have a new treaty for you all to sign. This new treaty gives the Federation committee sole rights to decree who will trade and when. All trading will be handled by my delegates and all profits will be dispersed by us”. “This is preposterous” the pretend Queen said. “Trade between planets has always been open and controlled by each planet, this is highly illegal, and the Senate will not agree to such terms” she added. Mace and Qui-Gon came to during this exchange by the Queen and Gunray, however they were unable to do anything to help, they were unarmed and their hands were secured with force suppressors. “Your Highness sit down and read the treaty, and then sign it. Once we have your signature, it will be easy to secure the rest of the Delegates signatures. But let me warn you! if you do not sign it we will begin to execute the delegates one by one.” Gunray snapped. At the other end of the hall Ben was watching the doors, and several droids were standing guard. He was too late, and he had to come up with a plan to get in. Padmè was rounding up Captain Panaka and a team of security and she was going to enter the Conference hall from a secret passage. So it was up to Ben to stall the meeting until they arrived. He heard footsteps coming from around the next corner, and they were heading his way. It was the Delegate from D’larah, Minister Tumleh, and he was being escorted by two droids. Ben ran down the hall towards them with force enhanced speed not giving the droids a chance to register what was happening. As he approached, he force pulled the blasters from their metal hands and then pushed them backwards. Both droids flew back down the hall hitting the wall. “Minister Tumleh, my name is Ben I am part of the security for Senator Mothma. The Neomiodians are betraying the Trade agreement and have captured every one. They are holding them in the conference room.” he said quickly. “I thought something was wrong when those droids threatened me. What can we do, where did those droids come from.” Tumleh declared. “Please Minister, come in here and I will explain”. They both went into an empty room and Ben explained. “Nute Gunray has an ulterior motive; I believe he wants full control of the trade routes and control of the finances.” “So what can we do?” Tumleh asked. “You should stay here Minister. Give me your robe and headdress, I will take your place and go in there.” Ben said as Tumleh took off his robe. “One of the handmaidens has gone for help; I will hold them off until they arrive. You will be safe in here if you lock the door.” Ben left the Minister hidden in the room and strode down the Hall, as he approached the droids, they called out “halt, who are you?” “I am Minister Tumleh the delegate from D’larah, step aside I am running late!” Ben snapped. As he was speaking to the droids a Neomiodian guard arrived. “Who are you” he demanded. “Are you deaf, man? I just finished telling this droid here, that I am Minister Tumleh from D’larah, I was running late. Let me in I must be present to the signing of the treaty!” he snapped The guard pulled a communicator from his belt and turned to the droid. “Have you searched him?” However, before the droid could answer him. Ben waved his hand in front of the Neomiodian guard and said. “I carry no weapons; there is no need to search me”. Ben said forcefully. The droid answered. “No Sir, we have not searched him”. The Guard looked at the droids and then said “Get out of my way, there is no need to search him, he carries no weapons” The guard called some one in the room and then the door opened, revealing another guard. The first Guard pushed Ben in and stood him next to the other guard. “Was he carrying a weapon?” Gunray asked the guard. “No Sir he has no weapons.” the Guard stated. “Very well take him over with the others”. They pushed Ben and he collided with Qui-Gon who was still feeling the effects of the stun beam, and he was leaning against the wall. Ben looked into the Jedi’s eyes, recognition clearing Qui-Gon’s focus. “Ben” he whispered what are you doing here?” “Trying to save your lives.” he whispered back. “You foolish boy!” Qui-Gon quietly berated him. “You should have gone for help; you are no match for these thugs” Ben’s eyes burned with annoyance at Qui-Gon’s spoken words. (why does this man dislike me so much?) he thought as he turned away from the Jedi. tbc... -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear.
