A child trust is more important then a grown up one (Star Wars)

Chapter 7

Anakin looked amazed as he looked around the ship once he had climbed inside with Padme and Bail.

"Look after him for a couple of minutes. I'm going to contact Master Kenobi and tell him about Anakin departure."

Bail nodded and after that the woman walked in another room.
"Here. Sat down. The ship is about to take off" He said as he strapped the boy on a chair.

Anakin looked around the ship to see other senators, he guessed, some of them strapped to a chair and others sitting up. He didn't hear them all. But the one he could hear, he hear them speaking about the banquet on Madalore.

The little boy could tell that none of them were as excited as him. Some even look wary or fearful. He even caught a name or some words that he hadn't heard about before.

"I talked with Master Kenobi and everything is fine" Anakin looked immediately back at Padme as he heard her voice and he smiled widely as he heard that.

Soon enough the ship started to take off and Anakin turned around to look at the window behind him.

"Whats Death watch?" Anakin asked Padme and Bail several minutes later after the ship had entered in hyperspace, and half an hour after the ship had took off. By now most of the senators were quite. Either sleeping or looking through their datapad.

Padme and Bail looked at each other wondering what to tell Anakin about that violent group.

"Its nothing to be worried about" Bail said in the end. "Don't listen what the others senators say. Some of them are even trying to exaggerate to make their story more interesting."

Two hours later the ship landed on the planet Mandalore. Anakin feel someone shaking him awake and he didn't even knew when he had falled asleep.

" I'm awake "he said as he rubbed his eyes and he looked at Padme. The woman wasn't dressed in her casual clothes anymore. No. She was wearing a purple dress and her hair was brained in one braid that was falling on her back and he wonders when she had the time to change.

"Come on. We are here" she said with a smile and she took his hand and together they got out from the ship. Outside they were waited by some guards, though in Anakin opinion there weren't as cool looking as his clones friends, and a woman who Anakin suspected must be the Duchess, that the scary man had told them about.

"Welcome to Mandalore. I hope that you would have fun as well at this banquet, and not only politics would be talked" she said with a smile. She great all the people who then walked towards the palace with a guard.

"Padme. I'm so glad to see you" she said as she hugged the Sentor from Naboo.

"Duchess Satine. I'm glad to see you as well" she said as she hugged the woman back.

"And who you must be?" Satine asked once she saw the little boy beside Padme.
Anakin looked at the woman, she couldn't feel anything scary about him but he was was still wary around unknown people. That's why he didn't said anything.

"He's a friend of mine. I will tell you later. I hope that you don't mind that I brought him along."

"Of course no" she said with a smile. "Let's go then"

Padme nodded and she followed the other woman with Anakin beside her as he looked around the place. It's was indeed a very beautiful place and a part of him wanted to go and explore it. But... He remembered what happened no more then a few hours on Coruscant. And he doubt that here would be as lucky as there. So he stayed beside the two women.

"Can you stay with Bail for a second. I need to talk something privately with the Duchess?"

Anakin nodded with a smile and he walked to the man who was feeling as comfortable as Padme and Ahsoka and Obi-Wan..

"I know that some things would must likely bore you to death. But remember to stay beside me and Padme. Alright?"

Anakin nodded as he looked at the ball room from the palace.

"If you get hungry" Anakin looked again at Bail who pointed at the table. "You can go there and eat something or ask any of us. And if you are thirsty make sure that you get juice and not alcohol" he said with a smile. One that Anakin replied to with his own.

On the other hand Padme was talking with Satine and she told him about the little boy. Obi-Wan had told her to not tell to much people about it and if he did to tell the one he trust. He trust Bail and that's why he told him. He also trust Satine. And not only her but Obi-Wan as well. Plus. She had to give her an explanation of why she brought a child along and she knew very well that Satine knew when people are lying to her.

Satine was pretty much surprised as she heard that. Even though she had meet Anakin only two times, once when he was with Obi-Wan on the ship towards Coruscant and were attacked by mechanical bugs and the second time when he had brought his Padawan to teach, it's was stil surprising.

"Don't worry about it. I will not tell anyone about it. Thought I still not understood who he managed to come along."

"He had left the temple saying that he wanted to explore Coruscant and he had gotten lost. Fortunately I manged to find him and I took him with me. Of course Obi-Wan wasn't very happy about."

Satine smailed a little as she heard that. "And I must suspect that it got something to do with Death Watch" she said and Padme nodded. "Don't worry. Nothing had happened around two months by now. Nothing would happen now either."

Obi-Wan was on the balcony looking outside at the dark sky of Coruscant.

"Are you still worried?" The man didn't need to turn knowing that the voice belongs to Ahsoka. "You said it yourself that nothing is going to happen and Padme would take care of Anakin and that Satine would not let Death Watch harm a child. So.. Why are you worried"

"I know what I said Ahsoka. I.. Just have a really bad feeling about this. That's all."
