Star Wars - The Untold Stories: Book 1

Chapter 2 - Naboo

The Queen was greatly concerned with this news, so she contacted Senator Palpatine. Senator Palpatine is a older man, around age 40. He usually wears blue. Queen Amidala contacted the Senator from the Throne Room of the palace. She was wearing a beautiful red gown with yellow on it. Her hair was up in a pigtail and a wig was on her head. There were several guards around the room. The Queen's hand maids were there along with the Royal advisors.

Palpatine - Negotiations haven't started yet because the ambassadors aren't there? How could that be true? I have assurances from the Chancellor. His ambassadors did arrive. It must-handiwork-negotiate-ambassadors, nobody would ...
Amidala - Senator Palpatine. What's happening?
Captain of the guards - Check the transmissions generator.
One of the council members - A communications disruption can only mean one thing: invasion.
Amidala - The Federation would dare not go that far.
Captain - The senate would revoke their trade franchise and they'd be finished.
Amidala - We must continue to rely on negotiation.
CM - Negotiation? We've lost all communications. And where are the Chancellors ambassadors?
Captain - This is a dangerous situation, Your Highness. Our security volunteers will be no match against a battle-hardened Federation army.
Amidala - I will not condone a course of action that will lead us to war.

Meanwhile, we finally reached the planet surface. It took forever. When we reached the surface we waited till it was all clear to leave. We had seemed to run into a couple of problems.

Captain of the droid army - Yes, Viceroy?
OFM - Captain, we have searched the ship, and there is no trace of the Jedi. They may have gotten on one of your landing crafts.
DAC - If they're down here, sir, we will find them.
Viceroy - Use caution. These Jedi are not to be underestimated.

The tanks started their way through the forest to the Capital. They destroyed everything in their path. The animals were sent runnning. The trees fell with a large thump. I could feel the destruction the tanks caused through the force. How it hurt. Master Jinn was running as fast as he could. However he was stopped by something in his path. A Gungan. They are the native creatures to the planet.

Jar-jar Binks - Oh no!
Jinn - Get away! Get out of here! Get down!
Binks - Ay-yee-yee...wha...Was'n dat?

Master Jinn helped save the creature.

Binks - Hey, wait! Oh, mooie-mooie! I love you!
Jinn - You almost got us killed. Are you brainless?
Binks - I spake.
Jinn - The ability to speak does not make you intelligent. Now, get out of here.
Binks - No, no, mesa stay. Mesa culled Jarjar Binks. Mesa your humble servant.
Jinn - That won't be necessary.
Binks - Oh, but it is. It is demanded by the gods, it is. Oh, no! Whoo!
Jinn - Stay down!

Kenobi and I were on the run when Master Jinn saw us. He quickly turned on his saber and deflects the blasts from the droids.

Binks - You save my again.
Kenobi (Out of breath) - What's this?
Me (Out of breath) - Hello Master.
Jinn - Hello Harmony. A local. Let's get out of here before more droids show up.
Binks - More? "More" did you spake? Ex-squeeze-me, but de mostest safest place would be Gunga City. Is where I grew up. It's a hidden city.
Jinn - A city?
Binks - Uh-huh.
Jinn - Can you take us there?
Binks - Uh, on second thought, no. Not really, no.
Jinn - No?
Binks - It is embarrassing. But, uh, me afraid my have been banished. Me forgotten. Da bosses would to terrible things to me. Terrible things if me be going back there.
Jinn - You hear that?
Binks - Yah.
Jinn - That is the sound of a thousand terrible things heading this way.
Kenobi- If they find us, they will crush us, grind us into tiny prices and blast us into oblivion.
Binks - Oh. Yousa point is well seen. This way. Hurry!

Jarjar lead us into the swamp until we came up to a huge lake.

Jinn - How much further?
Binks - Wesa going underwater. Okeyday? Ah, my warning you. Gungans no liken outsiders, so don't except a warm welcome.
Kenobi - Oh, don't worry. This has not been our day for warm welcomes.

Master Jinn and Obi Wan put in a breather. I used my atmosphere converter again. Jarjar made all these weird sounds and dived into the lake. Obi Wan and Master Jinn walked into the lake. I was on Master Jinn's back for I did not know how to swim yet.

Binks - Yousa follow me now, okeyday?

We dived down under the lake. I held onto Master Jinn's robe and attempted to swim. It did not work. The city was beautiful, unlike anything I had ever seen. We were able to walk through the clear walls of the city. It was amazing. I turned off my converter while Master Jinn and Kenobi took off their breathers. Everyone was staring and whispering. I could not tell if they were afraid of us or afraid of Jarjar. People started running away. Jarjar was thrilled to be home. However, the rest of the people were not. A general riding a native creature approached us.

Tarpals - Hey yousa, stopa dare!
Binks - hero-dales, Captain Tarpals. Mesa back!
Tarpals - Noah gain, Jarjar. Yousa gown tads bosses. Yousa in big Dudu dis time.

Binks sighed and 2 other guards approached. They shocked Binks and he did not appreciate it very much. We then walked through a couple of halls to we reached "The Bosses".

Master Jinn - Now Harmony, stay close and don't say a word unless I speak directly to you. Understand?
Harmony - I understand.

We walked up to the post to stand and began talking about the droids. Master Jinn was on the left, I in the middle, and Obi Wan on the right.

Boss - Yousa cannot bees here. Dis army of Mackineeks up dare is new weesaw.
Jinn - A droid army is about to attack the Naboo. We must warn them.
Boss - Wesa no like da Naboo. Da Naboo tink day so smarty. Day tink day brains so big.
Kenobi - Once those droids take control of the surface, they will take control of you.
Boss - Mesa no tink so. Day not know of uss-en.
Kenobi - You and the Naboo form a symbiont circle. What happens to one of you will affect the other. You must understand this.
Boss - Wesa no carrrre-nn about da Naboo.
Jinn - ( moving hand ) Then speed us on our way.
Boss - Wesa ganna speed yous away.
Jinn - We could use a transport.
Boss - Wesa give yousa in a bongo.
Binks - Hmm?
Boss - Da speediest way to to da Nabokov is is goen through the planet core. Now ..... Go .....
Jinn - Thank you for your help we leave in peace.
Kenobi - Master, what's a bongo?
Jinn - A transport I hope.
Harmony - Master, what about Jarjar?
Jinn - I...
Binks - Theysa settin yousa up. Gown through da planet core? Bad Bombing. Mmm...any help here would be hot.
Kenobi- Master we are short in time.
Harmony - I agree. However it may not be a bad idea to bring him along.
Kenobi - What?!
Jinn - We will need a navigator to get us through the planet's core. This Gungan may be of help.
What is to become of Jarjar Binks here?
Boss - Hisen to be punished.
Binks - Ohh...
Jinn - I saved his life. He ows me what you call a "life-debt". Your gods demand that his life belongs to me know.
Boss - Binksssss, yousa havena lifeplay with thisen hisen?
Binks - Mm, uh-huh.
Boss - Begone with him!
Binks - Better dead here, dan at te core. Wasa misa tinken!

We all left and got into a bongo. It was quite the trip.
