In the universe, a Jedi shuttle that had its engine turned off was floating quietly in this darkness.
Anakin did not choose to stay in Tatooine, a place that made him sad, hated, and left him with all kinds of painful memories. He also did not accept the invitation and solicitation of his stepfather and his family, and directly took his space shuttle on the same day. The plane left the desert planet and just floated in the orbit of the Arkanis galaxy, lying in its driver's seat and drifting forward aimlessly.
He has left a 'seed' of hatred on Tatooine where resources are scarce, and he has not thought about where to place the remaining 'seeds' in the galaxy... because, he is now Still in deep sorrow.
I think back then, when he was rescued by Teacher Qui-Gon Jinn and ransomed and taken away from Tatooine, he had promised his mother several times face to face that he would definitely come back to save her! And now, he is indeed back, and he is back with his head held high as a Jedi Knight, and he originally wanted to make the other party happy, but how could he...
Those damn Tuskens, those sand people, those stupid creatures who didn't deserve to be called 'human', actually killed the mother Anakin cared about most, turning her into such a cold corpse. Didn't you even see him for the last time as his son?
perhaps……
The thing about a son who wants to take care of him but refuses to be kissed by him should be referring to his situation at this moment, right?
Anyway, after experiencing that tragic thing, at this time, in Anakin's view, the creed of the Jedi is these:
No need for passion, calm mind.
Do not follow ignorance, obey true knowledge.
Do not indulge in lust, be calm and understand your thoughts.
Although there is chaos, tranquility remains.
There is no destruction, only the force of the force... and other core concepts have been forgotten by him long ago.
He doesn't want to think about those bullshit Jedi creeds and the essentials of spiritual practice, nor does he want to plan his plan that has not yet been officially implemented. He just wants to stay in this place without outsiders and tear his heart out. He cried bitterly without scruples, and just floated in the universe doing nothing until he thought he was no longer so sad!
but……
Although Anakin had planned to stay in the dark deep space away from the main cosmic route for a day or two, and wanted to be alone and quiet, without doing anything or thinking about anything... However, Some people are just not happy to let him get his wish.
'Beep beep~! '
Isn’t this?
Just as he was lying in his driver's seat, staring at the sky full of stars outside the cockpit, he was thinking about his mother who had a busy day and was still in trouble and embarrassment, but she still smiled and hugged her young self to watch Tatooine. When the scene of the free night sky and stars... suddenly, a series of 'beep' communication prompts suddenly sounded, and soon, Obi-Wan's holographic image appeared directly on his driver's seat, overstepping his authority. beside.
'Anakin, I have an emergency...'
'etc! '
'What’s wrong with you? This...what happened? Did something happen on Tatooine? ! '
Obi-Wan, who originally wanted to say something important and urgent, didn't have time to say it, but was frightened by the look of his junior brother Anakin who was standing up from the driver's seat with a wet face and red eyes.
Therefore, without caring about conveying the urgent task that he almost said just now, he hurriedly asked with some worry.
"..."
"No, it's okay. If you have anything to say, Obi-Wan, you can tell me..."
Obviously, the somewhat stubborn Anakin doesn't want to recall that sad thing anymore, nor does he want Obi-Wan to know what happened to him, nor does he want the other party to express any opinions because of his cowardly performance just now. !
'You're like this and you still say it's okay? '
'Damn it! '
'I suddenly felt that it's better to find someone else to carry out that task. Anyway, come back quickly. We'll talk about anything else after you come back! '
Obi-Wan looked at Anakin's current appearance, and then thought about the reason why Anakin tried every means to find an excuse for him to give him a 'vacation' and go to Tatooine, and he could basically think of why the other party was like this! However, he was considerate and did not rush to ask. Instead, he sighed and planned to let the other party return to Coruscant first. After returning to the Jedi Temple, he would find an opportunity to have a good chat with the other party?
"No!"
"Obi-Wan, I'm fine. Now that the matter has been resolved, tell me, what exactly happened?"
After taking a deep breath, Anakin quickly recovered, and then asked coldly with a somewhat gloomy face.
'I do not believe……'
'Anakin, you're like this and you still say it's okay? Forget it, you can't lie to me, unless you can convince me, otherwise, I won't give that task to you! '
After staring at Anakin for a while, Obi-Wan felt that something was not right about Anakin's condition. He finally shook his head, obviously not believing what he said.
"Obi-Wan..."
"Actually, this is what happened..."
Seeing that the other party still had doubts and was unwilling to talk about the urgent mission that he was about to talk about just now, Anakin had no choice but to slowly talk about his encounter on Tatooine.
However, he only told part of the story, directly telling the fact that his mother had passed away when he arrived on Tatooine. He did not say why the other party was killed, nor did he say that he chose revenge out of anger and violated the Jedi Code. Killing the entire tribe of sand people, leaving no man, woman, age or child behind.
In fact, he will probably keep that matter buried deep in his heart and never talk about it to anyone again! !
'Anakin...'
'I'm so sorry for what happened to you...'
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the outcome he had guessed. Obi-Wan sighed a little lonely, not knowing what to say to the other party.
Because he really has never experienced or experienced that kind of tragedy between human beings. He, Obi-Wan, is a standard Jedi selected through a textbook selection, and a potential Jedi usually starts training as a baby. It is also from that time that all ties with their previous family life will be severed... Therefore, unlike Anakin, a Jedi apprentice who only started training at a very old age, Obi-Wan himself does not even know that his parents or I would not ask or inquire about the names of brothers and sisters, let alone have the kind of emotion between relatives.
Besides, that kind of emotion is something that Jedi Knights are not allowed to have. That is why Jedi Knights are not allowed to get married and have children, are not allowed to abuse the Force, and absolutely cannot form a powerful Jedi family, etc. The reason for the prohibition!
"No! Obi-Wan, it's okay..."
"You don't have to be sorry!"
"I have almost recovered now. There is nothing worth worrying about anymore. You can tell me, what do you need me to do? I know that if the matter is not urgent, you will definitely not think of asking an apprentice like me to do it. ."
Anakin said lightly, because all the people who should apologize have been killed by him personally, and there is no one left alive! Therefore, now Anakin will not accept anyone's apology, and there is no need for it.
'Okay, Anakin...'
'I'm so relieved to hear you say that, because now is not the time to be sad, and we Jedi shouldn't have that kind of emotion! '
'but……'
'Since you think you can carry out the mission yourself, then I happen to have a very urgent mission here. Among all the Jedi out there, you may be the only one closest to that planet. Therefore, I think it is very appropriate to give this mission to you. ! '
'Besides, you happen to know the person you need to protect, so there is nothing more suitable than this! '
After hesitating for a while, he thought that the matter was indeed urgent, and he really had no better choice, plus the elders had given instructions... So soon, after seeing Anakin gradually recovering, Obi-Wan thought After thinking about it, he compromised and prepared to hand over that important task to Anakin, who was still floating in the Tatooine area.
"I know……"
"Then tell me, what is it and who needs me to protect?"
Anakin thought for a while with a sullen face. He couldn't think of anyone he knew nearby who was worthy of his protection as a Jedi... So, he was ready to listen to every word the other person said next and see. What kind of mission is that?
'Is such that! '
'Anakin, the elders of the Jedi Council need you to go to Naboo immediately to protect Queen Padmé Amidala of Naboo and escort her safely back to the planet Coruscant! '
'This is a task that must be completed. There is no room for error. Can you do it? ! '
Now that he had begun to formally issue the order, Obi-Wan had a stern look on his face, changed from the relaxed look just now, and instead stared into Anakin's eyes with a stern expression and asked.
"!!"
Queen of Naboo? !
He was stunned for a moment, and then the pupils in his eyes shrank suddenly. A beautiful and peaceful smile, a pretty face, a kind and stubborn temperament, and a likeness finally emerged from Anakin's long-dusted memory. An angelic figure...
Yes, it's her... The increasingly clear shadow is the Queen of Naboo, Padmé Amidala!
He still remembered her, her name, her expressions and smiles... He still clearly remembered when he saw the Queen of Naboo, Padmé Amidala, disguised as an ordinary maid. , he was deeply attracted by her bravery, and at the same time, he ridiculously had the idea in his mind that he must marry her when he grew up?
You know, he was still a pathetic little slave boy on the planet Tatooine, and he dared to have such unrealistic ideas...
However, those things are not important right now, because now, listening to the meaning of Obi-Wan's words just now, the beautiful figure that has always existed in Anakin's mind, the Queen of Naboo, she is actually in danger, and there are still people Want to harm her so much that Obi-Wan has to let himself, who is closest to Naboo, go to reinforce and protect her? !
"Why?"
"Obi-Wan, tell me, why did you ask me to urgently protect the Queen of Naboo? Shouldn't she be staying well on Naboo now? Then what kind of danger is she involved in? Isn't it necessary? A Jedi to protect her?!"
Anakin was a little anxious.
You know, the two most important women in his life, one of them, besides his mother, is the remaining Queen of Naboo, Padmé A, who has been well hidden in his heart. Midala! And now, not long after he lost his mother, someone actually wanted to take the second woman he cherished the most away from his heart? !
So, involuntarily, Anakin clenched his fists, and at the same time the surging strength and anger in his heart began to brew... Of course, he hid it well from Obi-Wan's face, and did not show much wrongness at all. Well, I just asked with a straight face out of curiosity.
'Alas~! '
'Isn't it because the Hero Federation withdrew its troops for no reason? The Jedi Council received reliable information. It is said that the remnants of the Trade Federation are unwilling to fail. They are now colluding with the new separatists led by Count Dooku and want to take revenge on Naboo and Queen Pa of Naboo. Deme Amidala! '
'They even offered a bounty hunter a high price for her head? '
'So, Anakin, the situation is urgent now. You must rush to Naboo as soon as possible, then meet with Padmé, inform her of your intention, and choose a safe route to escort her back to Coruscant as quickly as possible! '
'Did you hear that clearly? ! '
After explaining the reason and requirements of the mission, Obi-Wan, who was afraid that the other party might not hear clearly, confirmed it again.
"Yes……"
"I know, Obi-Wan, I promise you, they won't succeed!"
After nodding to show that he fully understood, Anakin quickly sat in his driver's seat and turned on the instruments that he had turned off before.
'I hope so, but you'd better leave as soon as possible, and send me a message as soon as you get to Naboo to pick up the Queen and ensure her safety! '
'Remember to be quick! '
If the matter was not really urgent, and sending Jedi from other places or from the planet Coruscant might not be able to catch up, how could Obi-Wan let Anakin, a Jedi apprentice who has not graduated and has no hair, go there? Performing that very important escort mission?
"clear!"
"Okay, Obi-Wan, I'm going now!"
Anakin did not continue to chat with the other party, because at this time, he was more worried about the Queen of Naboo and the personal safety of Padmé Amidala than anyone else!
Therefore, after gathering himself and confirming that there was no problem with the spacecraft, he resolutely interrupted the communication with Obi-Wan and turned on the superlight engine of the space shuttle that had been on standby, and then searched from the coordinate list And soon after locking the fixed coordinates of the Naboo star for the first time, it instantly disappeared from an unknown orbit in the Arkanis galaxy area, making a long-distance journey towards Naboo. Jumped and flew away at super-light speed.
