Blue Waters: episode #4 The break in the story and the Recording: Princess Samantha
Previously: The Senate has just had a meeting. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine led the meeting, and the Jedi spoke about their concerns for the Sith. Palpatine decided to put it on the backburner and not to do anything about it at the time.
“This is good, real good information. I have included a code to something. 12734…you can receive the message…you will know how…” After Palpatine came back, he dismissed the meeting. Now, an hour later, Darth Sidious sits in that same room that he did in episode 2. He pushes a button, then presses the following sequence: 25468 then hits enter, then presses the down arrow key, then the simple #2. A light flashes on the contraption and a recording comes on. “While I did not find exactly what you were looking for, I did come across something very interesting. I hope that you are not displeased with this. It has to do with Queen Amidala.” Sidious pauses the recording. “Amidala of Naboo…” then un-pauses it. “It appears as if she is the princess of the Republic, the heir to the throne. Contact me for more details.” Sidious says, “Interesting…interesting. I suppose I’d better contact Arawn…” And so he does. “Arawn? What is this about Amidala?” Arawn says, “Well, on searching for the information…elected Queen Amidala of Naboo is the daughter of Tim and Sally Jedi, the king & queen of the Republic.” “That’s nice, Arawn, but the Royal family holds little interest for me…they have no ruling power, or say in most of what goes on within the Republic.” “Yes, master, but what if you…or I …were to fall in love with her. You could train your children to become Sith…and they would be quite powerful…and there is more to this story…Amidala’s real name is Samantha, and she has an identical twin sister named Minka. She is in the Maurder’s hands as a slave. If we could get one, or both of them to marry either of us, the children could be trained. As princess, with the Royal Force, they have a high level of Royal Force.” Sidious sits back in his chair. “Yes, I have foreseen it. Even though the Royal Force is a little different than the regular force, it could be done…I am under the impression that you are already in love with one of them.” “Yes, master. They are both very good looking. Either one would do for me, I like both of them.” Sidious smiles. “Good, do that then…and I will not get myself involved. My tastes run along a different line. But this would be very good…this is better than I had anticipated. Very good, Arawn.” Arawn smiles at the praise. “Oh, there is one other thing…when I look up Minka, I ran across a file marked “The Device.” I’m not sure what it means yet, but I’ll be working on it.” “Good, good…” “Queen Amidala/Princess Samantha is just the right age for Arawn,” he thinks. “Things are falling into place nicely…” He had already closed connection with Arawn…just after he said “good, good.” At the same time as this, Queen Amidala is anxiously awaiting the arrival of her father, Dalben. What Dalben had not told her is that two other people were coming: Tim and Sally Jedi. So, when they showed up with her father, she was surprised. She recognized them at once, the king and queen of the Republic. But what were they doing here? “Your majesties, this is an honor, but I’m afraid I don’t know why you’re here…I…” Tim stops her. “That is all right. There is something we have been meaning to discuss with you for a long time…but now that this business with the Trade Federation is over…it is time. Sit down everyone, please.” They all went in the conference room. Tim and Sally looked at each other, then Tim began, “You are really our daughter. Dalben here, and his wife, took you in, and we are forever indebted to them. We had to take you away from Coruscant because there was danger with the Maurders. We had reason to think that they meant you harm. It was the only way. We planned on telling you this when you were old enough…” Amidala looks to Dalben as he nods. “In exchange we took in Gwydion and Beru, Dalben’s children.” Dalben says, “Go ahead and keep my children. My wife died years ago, after Gwydion had been born. I feel that they would have happier lives if you would adopt them.” So, that is what Tim and Sally did after some argument. Then, they turned to Amidala and said, “You did will with the Trade Federation. We were proud of how you handled things. And your real name is Samantha Amidala Jedi.” Amidala sat back and cried. She hugged both Dalben and her real parents. She then moved back to Coruscant. Dalben was made king of Naboo. And that is how Amidala found out about being true royalty. For the next 9 years, Amidala (or Samantha) learned about her Royal family. Now, we’re going to jump ahead another 9 years (the same 9 years I just said about Samantha) to the true timeframe of Blue Waters. Until next time!
