Alora watched as the tall jedi nearly stormed out of the party knowing she had done exactly what she wanted and that was to get right under his skin. She stood up from the couch, wobbling slightly. "I'm going to head home it was nice to talk to you though. Enjoy the rest of the party." The waiter sat there speechless as he watched the blonde strut away and out the door as if they didn't just sit and talk for a while. After all, leaving men dumbfounded was a specialty of hers.

The next morning, Alora awoke with a minor headache, thanks to all the champagne she drank at that stupid dinner party. She rolled out of bed and made her way to the kitchen where Padme sat already drinking some coffee. "I don't even want to ask why you are still in your dress from last night. Regardless, you may want to change we are going to Naboo. Me and Jar Jar have discovered the location of the Blue Shadow Virus threat. I want to find out who is threatening the lives of our people." This statement was not something Alora wanted to hear first thing in the morning.

"Padme no. I'm not going." Alora argued.

"You are. I can't trust you here alone and now you know of our plans and I can't have you telling anyone to try to stop me. Now get dressed we are leaving from the main Hangar in fifteen minutes." Padme stood up and left her sister alone in the kitchen, leaving her to her own fear and anxiety. The blonde Amidala sister downed her coffee like water and quickly went to her room. She dressed herself in pink spandex shorts and a white sleeveless top as well as some simple shoes that she would be able to walk easily in. Pink was basically all she wore.

The girls hurried to the main hangar where people were walking around, fixing ships, taking inventory, and other things that seemed important. "Senator Amidala, Senator Binks is already an board the ship. Are you sure you wouldn't like some of the guards to escort you?" One of Naboo's personal royal guard members asked with a weary tone.

"That will not be necessary. This is a personal trip, nothing business." Padme lied. Alora rolled her eyes at her sister wanting nothing more than to be in bed still asleep. Or getting drunk.

"Very well then. The ship is in the last slot to the right. Have a safe trip and buzz us if you need us at any point." The guard offered a small, fake smile, to the women and watched as they swiftly made their way through the hangar. Padme forcefully shoved her sister onboard, looking back out into the main hangar once more before boarding herself and closing the doors.

"Ok Jar Jar. Follow the scans and let's go investigate." Padme took a seat in the city-pilots section and helped as the ship took off, jumping into hyperspace seconds later.

Alora sat in the main cabin, her stomach in knots. She was freaking out because she had only been little when the blue shadow virus was released but she heard all the terrible stories. Her nerves were shot the entire flight and all she could do was sit and wait. She wished she had some sort of liqueur to sip on to calm her nerves; it was the only thing she could thing that would help her right now. She thought that if she believed in love maybe the one she loved could help too but that wasn't real in her eyes. How could it be after what she went through?

"Alora- we are about to land. We see a farmer near where the scanners are going off like crazy. Get a suit on." Padme dropped an ugly yellow biohazards suit at her feet, nearly making Alora vomit.

"I can not be seen with that on." Alora contested.

"This isn't a joking matter. Get it on, and get off the ship." Padme demanded, slamming the door to the pilots room closed. Alora huffed and slid her body into the suit, frowning at its distasteful appearance. She nearly cried when she had to put the helmet over her perfectly blown out blonde locks.

"Follow behind me and Jar Jar." Alora did not need to be told twice. In fact, she stayed very far behind and could barely even understand what was being said between Padme, Jar Jar, and the farmer. She did feel her stomach turn when Padme ushered her forward to walk away from the ship, which she felt atleast somewhat safe near.

They walked into a shaded area of the tree line and began to look around. Alora immediately had an uneasy feeling her stomach and wanted to turn around and go back in the ship and hide. She was no fighter. In fact, she nearly screamed at the sound of Jar Jar falling face first on the ground. "A hatch!" He exclaimed.

"Padme like we straight up just found this bunker. Can you please for the love of God call for help so we can go the hell back to the ship?" Alora spoke up. Now more spooked then ever at the fact that they were at the sight of most likely a psycho killer.

"Fine" she grumbled, a bit of fear evident in her voice as well. "Captain Typho, I think we are standing on top of the lab. I need a geoscan of coordinates SP-127." She shut the comlink off and grabbed my arm dragging me to the hatch. The brunette haired older sibling leaned over sighing as she examined the door. "There's no way we can open this. We'll just have to-"

"Freeze!" The three Naboo natives froze as their blood ran cold. The blonde girl who was still young even felt a bit of tears prick her eyes.

Stay strong. Don't let them see your afraid. You can do this. Alora repeated in her head as they were escorted down into the lab, stripped of the God-awful suits (which she was not upset about) and presented in front a man who looked absolutely like a psychopath. He stood there eyeing the three up from a distance before bringing some glasses down onto his face and walking up to them. "What wonderful specimens. What's a life form like you doing in a swamp like this?" The man asked jar jar.

"I was about to ask you the same thing" Padme snapped.

"Thanks to the compassionate support of the separatist alliance I am creating life. Allow me to present the return of the infamous Blue Shadow Virus." The man pulled out a vile of blue liquid and the blonde amidala sister felt rage course through her veins.

"Your not creating life your taking it!" Alora shouted angrily.

"Yousa poisoned the Gungan waters!" Jar jar exclaimed sadly.

"I have perfected an airborne strain." The doctor completely ignored the comments made and watched as a small droid walked in holding a bomb.

"This is the last of the bombs, doctor."

"I'm well aware." The doctor snapped. "The virus combined with these bombs will release the virus into the galaxy more potent then before."

"Um, are you insane?" Alora scoffed. "It's a deadly disease that no life form is immune to. Including yourself you stupid fu-"

"Which is precisely why it was eradicated." Padme cut off her sisters angry words, trying to not anger the doctor too much.

"Murdered" he snapped. "As we speak thousands and thousands of 'superior' life forms are spreading their disease of war throughout the galaxy. Perhaps they should the ones that are eradicated." The mad scientists speech ended by the sound of alarms blaring throughout the bunker. "We have a breech! All droids to hatch number one!"

Quickly, the three prisoners were cuffed to a very scary looking machine as the scientist wore a grin. "Friends of yours I'm sure. Came faster than I thought."

"Fuck I can not be seen in this" Alora mumbled to herself, frowning at the ugly yellow jumpsuit. Granted, that was the least of her concerns but still she looked horrible in this. Atleast her hair looked ok.

It felt like hours before the heavy sound of footsteps grew louder as it sounded a bunch of troopers were coming to get us. The sound of a lightsaber stabbing through the door startled both Alora and Padme, watching the one and only Anakin Skywalker come bounding in the room.

"Alora! Padme!" He breathed out. Alora now really hated the yellow jumpsuit.

"Come any closer and your friends die" the doctor called out, halting Anakin who was beginning to run forward to help the three.

And then, electricity shot through their veins.
