The Main ramp of the cruiser is lowered as Qui-gon, Obi-wan and Captain Panaka lead the Viceroy and the other Trade Federation prisoners towards the ship.
As soon as the ramp is lowered all of the way, Supre Chancellor Palpatine and several Republic Gaurds can be seen descending the ramp, followed by Yoda and several Jedi Masters.
Pad walks in front of Chancellor Palpatine and greets him.
"Congratulations on your election, Chancellor." said Pad "It is so good to see you again."
In Pad's mind, she wasn't truly happy about Palpatine becoming Chancellor since after thinking about what I said about him using the Trade Federation to invade Naboo and to use the invasion to kick Valorum out of his position and take it for himself, she decided to that it might actually be true. So Pad started to be vigilant and cautious of Palpatine and keep her eyes on him.
"It's good to be ho. Your boldness and ingenuity and your bodyguard who has saved our people, Your Majesty." said Chancellor Palpatine "It is you who should be congratulated. Together we shall bring peace and prosperity to the Republic."
"Yes, I do hope that is true." said Pad while being stoic with Palpatine
"Now, Your Majesty. Can you tell how you were able to get the Trade Federation's Droid Army reprogramd?" asked Chancellor Palpatine who then looked at "Was it this one that did create the plan to take back Naboo?"
"Yes, I was the one who reprogramd." I said
"How were you able to sneak onboard the Trade Federation's ships and how were you able to reprogramd the droids?" asked Palpatine with a gentle looking smile on his face. "How and when did you have ti to do all of this?"
"Sorry, that's a secret, Chancellor" I said with a smirk
Palpatine never really took notice of when I was on Coruscant but after learning from the Queen before she left Coruscant about creating a plan to take back Naboo, he took more notice of and he is now starting keeping his eye on .
"I can see that you have lightsabers holstered on your belt." said Palpatine "Are you a so kind of Jedi sent by the Jedi Council to protect the Queen."
"Sorry but I am no Jedi" I replied " I am sothing entirely different."
"I see" said Palpatine "I would love to sit down with you and get to know you better."
"Who knows if we will have a chance to talk since I am a very busy man" I said
"Well, if you ever find the ti, lets sit down for so tea and have a friendly chat to beco better acquainted." smiled Palpatine
Off to the side Qui-gon and Obi-wan are greeting and discussing so matters with Yoda and the other Jedi Masters that arrived, as Captain Panaka takes the Trade Federation Prisoners onto the Chancellor's cruiser.
-Later that afternoon in an empty room
The sun shines into a multi-windowed room at a low angle.. Yoda paces back and forth before Qui-gon and Obi-wan who are kneeling in the center of the room
"Obi-wan, confer on you, the level of Jedi Knight, the Council does." said Yoda "But Qui-gon, agree on you taking this boy as your Padawan learner, we do not.
"But Master, you must feel it don't you" said Qui-gon "The connect the boy has with the Force is strong within him. He must be the Chosen One."
"The Chosen One the boy may be; nevertheless, grave danger I fear in his training." sighed Yoda
"Master Yoda, I gave Anakin my word that he would be a Jedi." said "I will train Anakin. With or without out the approval of the Council if I must."
"Qui-gon, a lot of defiance in you. Wish you would reconsider, this I do." said Yoda "The fate of the boy is too clouded, it is. Too risky to train the Council has decided, he is."
"If that is how the Council thinks and if I can't get the Council's approval, then I will leave the Jedi Order and train Anakin by myself."
"MASTER!?" cried out Obi-wan in shocked
"Sure you want to do this, are you?" asked Yoda
"Yes, I am sure" said Qui-gon "The Force brought to Anakin so that I can train him in the ways of the Force."
"Anything I can do to change your mind, is there?" asked Yoda
"Unless the Council lets Anakin join the Order and let train him" replied Qui-gon "If not, then I have made up my mind to leave the Order."
"If this is what you desire, then inform the Council of your decision, I will." sighed Yoda
Yoda walks out of the room, leaving Qui-gon and Obi-wan behind.
"Master, are you really sure about leaving the Order?" ask Obi-wan
"Yes, I am." said Qui-gon "I feel that it is my destiny to teach Anakin the ways of the Force, and I believe its what the Force wants too."
"Then let follow you then." said Obi-wan
"Are you sure about this Obi?" ask Qui-gon "You just received the title of Jedi Knight, are you sure you want to throw it away and follow ?"
"uuuuh" said Obi-wan with conflicted look on his face
Suddenly walking out behind so pillars, I appeared.
"I think it's a good idea for you to follow your Master." I said after appearing from behind a pillar
"Jerid, how long have you been here?" asked Qui-gon
"I have been here long enough to know that you are going to leave the Jedi Order." I replied "As I was saying Obi-wan, you should follow your heart more instead of your head."
"I don't know" replied Obi-wan "I have been with the Order since I was a child."
"If you need help making a decision, just think of Satine Kryze." I said
"H...ho...how do you know about her" said Obi-wan flustered
"Thanks to the Force, I know a lot of things." I said "I know that you have feelings for her, and that she also has feelings for you."
"But the Code, it goes against the Jedi Code." said Obi-wan
"Do you know that in the past, that the Je'daii Order which is the predecessor of the Jedi Order allowed their mbers to form relationships, get married and have children?" I asked
"REALLY!?" said Obi-wan in surprise "Master, is this true?"
"It is, Obi." replied Qui-gon "The Je'daii Order allowed marriage but later in history when the Jedi Order ford, the Jedi Council at that ti knew that love can make people deceptible to the Dark Side."
"So the Jedi Order was right to forbid love then." said Obi-wan
"They were not right." I said "Love is a wonderful and beautiful thing. It is a powerful force, that can make you more powerful and a better person."
"But if soone loses a love one, they could turn to the Dark Side." said Qui-gon
"Sure but it all depends on the person themselves if they turn to their Dark Side but losing a love one doesn't an they will turn evil it just a possibility" I said "The Jedi Council knowns this but they are too afraid to take a risk, so they banned love but I think the risk is worth it, because love is beautiful"
"He is kind of right my boy." said Qui-gon "Love is like a double edge sword, Love can make one more powerful and a better person but it can make them more deceptible to the Dark Side if they were ever lose their loved ones."
"It all depends on the person and you my boy are not that deceptible to the Dark Side" I said "I can feel that you are strong willed and righteous, so I am sure you won't fall to your Dark Side."
Obi-wan closed his eyes and started to think. After a few minutes of silence, and thinking, Ob-wan opened his eyes again.
"Thank you" said Obi-wan "I have made my decision. I will follow my Master and help him train the boy."
"I am glad that you are willing to help , Obi." smiled Qui-gon
"Since you both are leaving the Jedi Order, why don't you follow on my journey?" I asked
"Thank you for the offer." said Qui-gon "But I would like to take Anakin and Obi with to find the 'Wellspring of Life' and train Anakin and teach him about the ways of the Living Force there."
"Ah the Force Planet which is speculated to be the source of all life." I comnted
"You know about it?" asked Qui-gon
"I know more then just know about it, I even know the general location of the planet." I said
"You do." said Qui-gon with excitent on his face "Can you tell where to find it?"
AUTHOR'S NOTES: Sorry for uploading the new chapter a day late, but I got very busy with preparing for my school's winter camp classes. I was also outlining ideas, plots and details for my original novel I am planning on creating.
