I watched as the stars in the window settled back to being dots along a sea of stars, signalling that we exited out of hyperspace. As soon as we exited out of hyperspace, I saw battle ships of all different shapes and sizes blockading the planet of Naboo.

"State your name and buisness." I heard a voice say over the com on our ship.

Qui-Gon pressed a button that was close to a mic and tells the man, "We come as ambassadors for the Galactic Republic concerning the blockade of Naboo."

"What are your names?" I heard the voice say again.

I pressed the same button that Qui-Gon pressed and said, "I'm Nova Amidala, and I seek to negotiate with the leader that organized this blockade."

"Right away, my princess." The person on the other line tells me. "You may enter hanger 30, we'll have people escort you to the meeting room."

"Copy that." I told them before I leaned back in my seat.

"What was that about?" I heard Obi wan tells me. "Princess?"

I turned back to see that Obi wan was standing a little ways behind the chairs. He came up and sat on the empty chair on the other side of Qui-Gon.

"As you know, my sister is the Queen of Naboo, so technically I hold the role of the Princess of Naboo...even if being the queen is an office that people vote you into." I told them. "Which means that I would have some power on Naboo, but not as much as my sister. I would be able to sign some papers in her name, and other small things."

"Have you done it before?" Qui-Gon tells me.

"No, but because I haven't really needed to." I told him. "And besides, I'm almost never on the planet long enough to do anything."

"Bringing you could have been a bad idea then." Qui-Gon tells me. "But it's one that we can't undo right now. Although it did guarantee a way into the main ship, for whatever reason, I don't know."

A small fighter comes out of the main ship and comes right for us. "Or not." Obi wan says, directed towards me.

But shortly after that, a voice rings threw the com on our ship, "follow us to dock," the voice says. It's a different voice, probably the person in the fighter. I watched as the fighter went straight past us, I felt it turn around and fly back towards us.

"Well, you going to follow it?" I asked Qui-Gon as the ship flew past us at a pace that we could keep up with.

Qui-Gon didn't say anything, instead he followed the fighter to the ship and landed in hanger 30. "You might want to get off first as they are expecting at least you to be on this ship."

"At least two people." I told them. "You were the first to speak to them."

"Right, we'll be at the ready in case anything pops up." Obi wan tells me.

"Give us a signal to come out. A waving signal if they are friendly, ignite your lightsaber if they're hostile." Qui-Gon tells me. "We'll wait to the side of the door of the ship, out of sight."

"Got it." I told them. Once the ship was fully landed, I went and opened the ship door. I made sure that my brown cloak concealed my lightsabers and my hood was up before I opened the door.

I slowly walked down the ramp, to the forming guards at the bottom of the ramp. They all had there blasters on there belts; however, they each had their hand close to their blaster in case they needed to use it. They where tense when I came down, apparently they didn't recognise me with my cloak's hood up.

With a sigh, I pulled the hood down off my face and watched as they seemed to calm down a little once they knew it was me; however, they all still kept their hands near there blaster.

"Greeting Princess, have you come to sign the treaty for the Queen?" The person in the front of them asked me. He seems to be in charge of this group of people.

"Depends." I told them. "I will need to see this treaty first before anything is to happen."

"Of course." He tells me. "Are you alone?"

"What kind of princess comes alone to things like this? Wheither I'm a Jedi or not." I asked them. "I have two Jedi with me as...protection. A girl can never be too careful."

"Right." The person tells me. "Call them down and I will show you all to our meeting room."

I turned towards the ship and motioned for the other two to come out. They walked down the ship's ramp, stopping just a few feet away from me.

"Come, we are excited to be in the princesses presence." The leader tells us. He then turns around and begins walking away from us. I start walking towards him when someone grabs my hand. I turned back to see that it was Obi wan. 'What's with him' I asked myself.

"This seems to easy." He whispers to me.

I stopped and thought about what he told me. With just my name, we were able to peacefully board this ship that was in a blockade against my homeworld, Naboo. Why are they even blockading it again? I asked myself. The galaxy has been in peace and now something like this just happens. It makes no sense. "Way too easy." I whispered back to him.
