Poof has a love-hate relationship with the Saga. On the one hand, it’s where he has his shinning moments as a Jedi Knight on the Jedi Council. On the other hand, he dies during the Saga era, and that wasn’t much fun at all.

UUUU, just what we needed. And evil cliffhanger injected into our nice safe story, to raise the hackles of our fellow Rev-ites, myself included! Can't wait for more.

The lawyer, a young human from Coruscant, whose hair was slicked back and wore the best robes credits could buy, stalked back in her direction. “Didn’t you report that Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and then Jedi Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi had directed your team away from a mysterious warrior who appeared to have Jedi-like training?”

“Yes, but...”

~~~~~~~~

“Because,” Anakin whispered, his roguish grin steadily increasing.

“Tell me,” Padmé sweetly prodded, feeling the corners of her mouth curling into a smile.

“Because,” he repeated, shifting his weight. “I’m in….

~~~~~~~~

Anakin was at a loss for words. Never, throughout the tenure of their friendship, had he heard Padmé sound so defeated…so lost. “It’s your exhaustion talking. With some rest...”

“Rest isn’t going to change how I feel, Anakin,” Padmé said with a hint of anger in her voice. “I think though that the time has come for me to step…”

~~~~~~~~


praying Why, oh why! won't fate let anyone finish their sentences!!?

The only one that seems to have escaped is Obi-wan... and he's all torn between his 'laaaady' and the order..

grin Great chapter. Very dramatic. I feel the story is speeding up towards something.

I especially liked the A/P parts. Your Anakin is very sweet. blush

(And of course the fact that you have marooned Padme and Anakin.. all alone.. in the wilderness... raised_brow )

Can't wait for more!

This is getting better and better...

So Gunray got off eh? Bloody lawyers...no offense to anyone here that is one of course! And Anakin and Padme seem to be growing much closer, I'm looking forward to seeing that relationship continue to grow.

So Obi-Wan may be taking on a Padawan? That'll be interesting to see at the least, could we be seeing a rivalry between Anakin and Jaden? And Siri knows about him being married! Did I miss something?! I most likely did...oh well, puts an interesting twist into things at least...

I'm looking forward to seeing the Jango plotline develop more as well, he's a pretty cool character. And now the Angel Queen has taken severe damage and is about to crash land...sabotage perhaps?

I only have one complaint and that's the word Naboovian. Wouldn't Nubian sound better? Just a suggestion...

Looking forward to the next update!

Incredible chapter Rev!

One of the things I liked best about it is how we got right into Padmé's head. For once she was not being the queen or the lover or the wife or the mother. She was herself. Right there in the moment, she was angry, hurt, sad, afraid, and defeated.

I loved it. rose

Honestly, she came to life for me there in a way she never really has before. You've acomplished a wonderful characterization in a very dynamic manner:

The world had turned to red. The fury within had clenched her heart, setting it ablaze while her anger threatened to consume her very being. Padmé stormed out of the courtroom amidst the sound of cheers and hisses. The verdict was in.

Not guilty.

She had failed.

I love the way you blended color, motion and sound. Just - really superb! ( the artist in me reacts strongly to that kind of thing) grin

The flashback was great as we get a chance to see what led up to this. I was really upset for her!

I feel for Obi-Wan and I'm fascinated with Jango's thoughts here.

Uhm... yes, Jango's thoughts are very interesting indeed... cool

Oh -and Nute Gunray is a reptile. wink

I just love where you are taking A&P's relationship! And now they're going to be stranded! I hope everyone makes it ok!

Sorry if I've missed anything! I usually need to read your posts a couple of times, which is good, I like that! batting

Uh oh, not good at all! worried

Withdrawing from his embrace, streams of tears falling down her face, Padmé retorted sorrowfully, “But he was right, wasn’t he? My arrogance killed so many.”

“That’s not true,” Anakin said in her defense. “The Viceroy’s lawyer twisted what really happened to save Gunray’s slimy skin.” Straightening to his full height, he continued, “You are an honorable and decent leader, Padmé. You were willing to give up your life for the freedom of people you’ve never even met.” He paused, his features then slightly darkened. “The Viceroy and his cronies only care about themselves and how much they can take.”

“You heard the lawyer, Anakin; I did not possess the knowledge or the experience to lead that fight,” Padmé said, slightly backing away from him. “In fact, you should be angered that I thoughtlessly placed your life in jeopardy.”

“I would follow you into the volcanoes of Sullust if you asked it of me,” Anakin resolutely professed moving his hands onto the sides of her shoulders.


That was lovely! applause Looking forward to more! And soon! mischief

“Why do you believe in me so blindly?” She softly breathed

“Because,” Anakin whispered, his roguish grin steadily increasing.

“Tell me,” Padmé sweetly prodded, feeling the corners of her mouth curling into a smile.

“Because,” he repeated, shifting his weight. “I’m in….


Oh, so close, why did Sabé have to ruin it frustrated .


Well, this was just an amazing update but the ending was just evil, what happen? Oh please don’t leave us there to long and thanks for the pm.

Thanks for the pm. Great chapter.

Poor Padme being torn apart by defenses council. She is so down on herself. Hopefully Anakin get through to her that she did every thing she could and had to do.

Poor Anakin trying to tell Padme he is in love with her.

More plotting to take Padme out.

Hopefully Padme & Anakin are okay.

“Hang on, Padmé. Things are about to get rough.” The ship was now skipping along the small planet’s outer atmosphere, shaking them violently. The hull then began to creak

“Anakin… I have a really bad feeling about this.”


::hands curl up::

CLIFFHANGER!

ACK!

::glares::

Hmm, nothing is never easy and nothing is ever perfect. So many problems have cropped up in this chapter, eh? And those stupid, stupid lawyers… grrr.

Wonderful chapter... now hurry up and give us a remedy to that cliffhanger! tongue

shock Oh, no! This can't be good! Talk about an evil cliffie. Of course, if it's an uninhabited planet, and they're stranded and all alone... batting tongue

“You were hardly in the position to lead an offensive,” the attorney barked in response. “Your actions were unwarranted and worst of all, they were irresponsible.”

Argh! That evil lawyer. angry Poor Padme. She did the only thing she could do, and she saved her people.

“Because,” Anakin whispered, his roguish grin steadily increasing.

“Tell me,” Padmé sweetly prodded, feeling the corners of her mouth curling into a smile.

“Because,” he repeated, shifting his weight. “I’m in….

“Your Highness!” Sabé called out.


Nooooo!!! doh! Talk about bad timing.

My heart really went out to Obi-Wan, too, trying to find the answer to remaining faithful to both his wife and the Order.

Jango was a parent, although not by traditional means. His child was his genetic copy, right down to his penchant for finding trouble. At times he wondered why he made the decision that had brought Boba into his life. Maybe it was the loneliness of his chosen profession finally getting the better of him? Or, quite possibly, it might be the fact that he would never love another woman for the remainder of his life. Only she would have been worthy to give birth to his true offspring.

Hmmm...Now that's an interesting little tidbit of information.

But, again, about that cliffie. E-VIL!!!!

Lovely update! grin

My deepest apologies for not having the time to adequately review the chapters that I just finished reading in a big sitting. I admit that I have not read the Naboo Chronicles, but my search for powerful, Queen-like Padme stories led me here, and I see that I have found something golden. I love the intricacy of your plot (though I need to do some research to understand it all), the romance, and the massive ensemble I'm rolling in. It is wonderful to see the characters in such a unique and bold plot, all acting in a way I had hoped for. I love it.

Much applause to you, Rev, and please add me to your pm list. I hope to find the time to read the Naboo Chronicles at some point, but for now I'll just try to surmise what has happened and go from there.

My deepest thanks to everybody who is reading, posting or lurking. I truly appreciate the support!

Angel Queen:

EEEK! CLIFFHANGER!!

Heh wink .

Well, doesn't everyone have their own set of troubles in this chapter?

Yes and they are only beginnning.

Gunray got off *sulks and whaps him*, Obi-Wan's still caught between his wife and the Order, and now Anakin and Padmé are in deep trouble.

And there is lots more coming. Thanks so much for reading!


Astarael:

Eep! Not good! Not good!

Seems to be a generally worry from this update wink . Can't imagine why grin .

Stupid attorney. Thats just evil how he turned that around to blame Padme

I agree. He was a very bad man.

Argh! Seriously bad timing!

I agree. Anakin and Padme never seem to catch a break. Thanks for reading!


MoAngel:

And evil cliffhanger injected into our nice safe story, to raise the hackles of our fellow Rev-ites, myself included!

Well, can't let you all get too comfortable. Have to shake things up abit wink .

Can't wait for more.

Thanks so much!


Satanat_Solo:

Why, oh why! won't fate let anyone finish their sentences!!?

Fate is rather nasty that way.

The only one that seems to have escaped is Obi-wan... and he's all torn between his 'laaaady' and the order..

He does seem to have quite a bit on his mind. We shall see soon what decisions he's reached.

Great chapter. Very dramatic. I feel the story is speeding up towards something.

Thank you so much. I'm so glad to know you feel like the plot has some point. Trust me, everything that happens is for a very specific purpose.

I especially liked the A/P parts. Your Anakin is very sweet.

Thanks! I think the movies focused too much on how angry he was all the time. I think there was much more to him than that, which of course attracted Padme so I really wanted to explore the lighter sides of her personality. Glad you liked it.

(And of course the fact that you have marooned Padme and Anakin.. all alone.. in the wilderness...)

All sorts of interesting possibilities could arise from that grin .

Thanks so much for reading!


Sethsky:

Very good chapter, it seems like a trying time for Padme, i'm just glad that she has Anakin's friendship to rely on.

And she will need him even more very soon wink .

Can't wait for the next one.

I appreciate that. Thanks for reading!


LoveAnakin1:

I really like the story

Thank you very much. Welcome to the thread!

Could I be on your pm list

Added! Thanks for reading!


Ladynaye:

Ok, I am finally caught up!!

Welcome back!

UGH a cliffie!! I wonder if the small planet is Korriban?

Hmmm..although that would be interesting, I can tell you that the planet they crashed on isn't Korriban. However, it will have it's own 'problems' as we will soon find out.

Thanks for reading!


JediMormon:

This is getting better and better...

I appreciate that. That's music to a muse's ears.

So Gunray got off eh? Bloody lawyers...no offense to anyone here that is one of course! And Anakin and Padme seem to be growing much closer, I'm looking forward to seeing that relationship continue to grow.

Perhaps we should do as Shakespeare suggested as for lawyers. And yes, Anakin and Padme are growing quite close. Where that will lead though...

So Obi-Wan may be taking on a Padawan? That'll be interesting to see at the least, could we be seeing a rivalry between Anakin and Jaden? And Siri knows about him being married! Did I miss something?! I most likely did...oh well, puts an interesting twist into things at least...

No you didn't miss anything. It wasn't revealed until that point whether or not Siri had been told. As for Anakin and Jaden, keep tuning in to find out.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Jango plotline develop more as well, he's a pretty cool character. And now the Angel Queen has taken severe damage and is about to crash land...sabotage perhaps?

Glad you like Jango. He's one of the many underutilized characters and it has been fun exploring his persona. As for the Angel Queen, it wasn't sabotage; however, we will learn soon what caused the accident.

I only have one complaint and that's the word Naboovian. Wouldn't Nubian sound better? Just a suggestion...

I appreciate the suggestion. However, the word Nubian refers to a group of people from Nubia, which is another GFFA planet so I wanted to make that distinction.

Thanks so much for reading!

One of the things I liked best about it is how we got right into Padmé's head. For once she was not being the queen or the lover or the wife or the mother. She was herself. Right there in the moment, she was angry, hurt, sad, afraid, and defeated.

I think Padme is so many things to different people, her own wants and feelings, aside from romantic ones, often times get lost in the translation. Although she tends to have a quiet way about her, I see Padme having a fiery nature, especially about things she believes in fully.

I love the way you blended color, motion and sound. Just - really superb! ( the artist in me reacts strongly to that kind of thing)

High praise indeed. I am speechless by your compliment. wink .

Uhm... yes, Jango's thoughts are very interesting indeed...

More of him to come soon.

I just love where you are taking A&P's relationship! And now they're going to be stranded! I hope everyone makes it ok!

Thank you very much. And yes, lots of possibilities from this 'side trip' could happen.

Sorry if I've missed anything! I usually need to read your posts a couple of times, which is good, I like that!

No apologies necessary, I am also thrilled to know that my stuff makes people think. Thanks so much for reading!


VaderLVR64:

Uh oh, not good at all!

And the fun has only just begun wink .

That was lovely! Looking forward to more! And soon!

Thank you very much. More is on its way.


Star_Angel:

Oh, so close, why did Sabé have to ruin it

I would suppose that she wasn't aware what was about to happen until she got much closer. wink

Well, this was just an amazing update but the ending was just evil, what happen? Oh please don’t leave us there to long and thanks for the pm.

That is very kind of you to say. Thank you! And yes, I do love the evil cliffes grin . All shall be revealed soon. Thanks for reading!


Across_the_Stars-24:

Poor Padme being torn apart by defenses council. She is so down on herself. Hopefully Anakin get through to her that she did every thing she could and had to do.

Well, he does have a strong inflence with her.

Poor Anakin trying to tell Padme he is in love with her.

I'm sure though he'll find a way to express his feelings.

Hopefully Padme & Anakin are okay.

We shall see soon. Thanks for reading!


Idrelle_Miocovani:

::hands curl up::

*blinks innocently* I can't help the evil cliffes....I'm afraid I am addicted to them grin .

Hmm, nothing is never easy and nothing is ever perfect. So many problems have cropped up in this chapter, eh? And those stupid, stupid lawyers… grrr.

Oh and things are about to get more...complicated grin .

Wonderful chapter... now hurry up and give us a remedy to that cliffhanger! tongue

Working dilligently to fufill your request. Thank you so much for reading!!


Gina:

Oh, no! This can't be good! Talk about an evil cliffie. Of course, if it's an uninhabited planet, and they're stranded and all alone... batting tongue

In spite of being an evil cliffe, the situation does afford for some rather...interesting possibilities.


My heart really went out to Obi-Wan, too, trying to find the answer to remaining faithful to both his wife and the Order.

He definitely is in a quandry. We shall see how he will handle it.

Hmmm...Now that's an interesting little tidbit of information

Isn't it now? wink .

But, again, about that cliffie. E-VIL!!!!

Heh. You should talk wink .

Thanks so much for reading!


Luna_Nightshade:

My deepest apologies for not having the time to adequately review the chapters that I just finished reading in a big sitting.

No worries. I am just thankful that you decided to take the time to read my little fic.

I admit that I have not read the Naboo Chronicles, but my search for powerful, Queen-like Padme stories led me here, and I see that I have found something golden.

That is very kind of you to say. Thank you so much!

I love the intricacy of your plot (though I need to do some research to understand it all), the romance, and the massive ensemble I'm rolling in. It is wonderful to see the characters in such a unique and bold plot, all acting in a way I had hoped for. I love it.

I appreciate that! My original goal was to change one event and then let everything and everyone fall where they will. Along the way, I've also gotten interested in some of the other peripheral characters, as well as a few homegrown ones as well. I wanted to tell a story that was different, but with all the recognizable elements still relatively intact. Plus, I love plot twists so I enjoy keeping my readers in suspense.

Much applause to you, Rev, and please add me to your pm list.

Thanks a bunch and you've been added.

I hope to find the time to read the Naboo Chronicles at some point, but for now I'll just try to surmise what has happened and go from there.

I would be more than happy to write out an outline for you and anybody else who wants it, of the major events of NC so that you don't have to read through it immediately to catch up with all the different plot lines. Drop me a PM if you would like one.

Thanks so much for reading. New update is coming soon!
