I STAND OPPOSITE THE JEDI COUNCIL WITH MY HANDS CLASPED TOGETHER. "Continue to protect Senator Amidala, you will." I look at Master Yoda and nod my head. "Investigate the bounty hunter, Obi-Wan will." Master Yoda finishes and Master Windu goes to speak.

"Etta, you and Obi-Wan's Padawan will escort Senator Amidala back to her home planet of Naboo, just like you escorted her here. She will be safer there, and don't use registered transport. Travel as refugees." I nod at my Master's words.

"Obi-Wan and Anakin will be here shortly, and Anakin will talk to Chancellor Palpatine to advise the Senator to return to Naboo." I bow to the Jedi council before leaving the room.

I stand beside Anakin as Padmé discusses with Jar Jar. The Padawan looks over at me whilst I stare out the window. "Are you nervous?" He asks me and I glance at him with a confused hum. "No, I have done many assignments alone before." I call out softly before turning to face him.

"Is this your first one?" He nods at my words and I give him a small smile. The pull through the Force tugs me again, its tugging me towards him. I use my mind to stop it, barricading it. It's exhausting me, but I don't let it show.

"What are you nervous about." I push my fingers back and he sighs. "Messing up and making a fool of myself, disappointing Obi-Wan, again." He mumbles the last bit to himself and looks down.

"You won't disappoint him." He lifts his eyes to look at me but my eyes are on his nose. "This mission will succeed because of your passion to save the Senator's life." He watches me as I ramble and tug my fingers back. His eyes are watching my hands before they lift to my face.

"You do not need to feel worried about disappointing Master Kenobi, because he is not disappointed in you. He believes in you to succeed in this mission." I finish and he looks down at me softly, with a grateful smile.

"Thanks, Etta." I give him a polite smile. "Oh!- but if you truly feel worried, I'm here, and I'll make sure this mission doesn't fail." He smirks at my words and chuckles slightly. "Thank you, that means a lot." I nod my head with a hum and Senator Amidala walks towards us.

"I do not like this idea of hiding." She announces and moves to go into her room. I follow after her. "Don't worry. Now that the council has ordered an investigation it won't take Master Obi-Wan long to find this bounty hunter." Anakin says and Padmé goes to pack her things.

"I haven't worked for a year to defeat the Military Creation Act to not be here when its fate is decided." Padmé says and strolls over to her suitcase, placing her clothes inside.
