We four stood in the middle of the room in front of the Jedi Council. Obi Wan had just finished explaining to the council everything that had occurred last night and he was sure not to leave out any details. Master Yoda thought the shortcut I had taken was a witty idea while Master Windu thought it was tacky, typical.

"Track down this bounty hunter you must, Obi Wan,Maven." Master Yoda told Obi Wan and Maven. "Most importantly, find out who he's working for." Master Windu then exclaimed. "What about Senator Amidala? She will still need protecting." Maven questioned slightly concerned and drawing his eyebrows together.

"Handle that young Timothee Skywalker will." Master Yoda then explained as he pointed his finger at me. I smiled in excitement. I had finally been given an assignment by the council. " Timothee, escort the Senator back to her home planet of Naboo. She'll be safer there. And don't use registered transport. Travel as refugees." Master Windu then instructed me.

"As the leader of the opposition, it will be very difficult to get Senator Amidala to leave the capital." I pointed out and Master Yoda nodded his agreement but nevertheless didn't change his mind. "Until caught this killer is, our judgment she must respect." Master Yoda told me and I nodded my understanding.

"Timothee." Master Windu then called out catching my attention. "Go to the senate and ask Chancellor Palpatine to speak with her about this matter." He told me before his eyes traveling to Anakins. "Anakin, you will be staying with Master Kenobi and Master Palpatine in the search for the killer. " We four nodded and bowed, before we walked out the room to prepare for our assignments.

"Timothee! What a pleasure to see you." The Chancellor graciously welcomed me upon my arrival while I exchanged some pleasantries before explaining the situation and requesting he would try to convince Padme to leave.

"I will talk to her." Palpatine easily agreed. "Senator Amidala will not refuse an executive order. I know her well enough to assure you of that." "Thank you, Your Excellency." I smiled at him, not even skipping a beat.

"We'll, now you have finally been given an assignment on your own." Palpatine then said. "I see your patience has paid off." "Your guidance more than my patience." I then said in a respectful and humble tone before Palpatine then guided me away from the window and we both began slowly walking away from the room.

"You don't need guidance,Timothee. In time, you will learn to trust your feelings. Then you will be invincible." He then told me while I didn't say anything in response, but simply continued walking alongside him. "I have said it many times: You are the most gifted Jedi I have ever met."

"Thank you, Your Excellency." I replied in a respectful and grateful manner. "I see you becoming the greatest of all the Jedi,Timothee. " The Chancellor then continued. "Even more powerful than Master Yoda." I simply gave him a smile before I soon departed to find Padme and inform her of her needed departure.
