27 Chapter 27:Title at the end!

Having finally achieved control of the ship, I give a command to all the drodis to eliminate all living beings that are still on board, I had already confirmed it with Light before, and even if they were controlled by me, I would receive the droids experience for defeat the enemy, even if it was in smaller quantities, but it will have to happen, I have no time or desire to slaughter everyone in cold blood.

Leaving the command center after giving my orders to the droids, I teleport back to the hangar, I had already left my seal on the ship, so I could keep it in the inventory no matter the distance.

Arriving at the hangar, I take Scimitar out of the inventory again before going directly to the cockpit, sitting in the pilot's chair, controlling the ship again and defining the destination for the hangar of the royal palace.

To tell you the truth, even at this distance, I could teleport directly there, the problem was that it would consume 90% of my MP due to the distance, and as someone who is focused on battles with force, I cannot give myself to luxury of being weakened, and it is very likely that Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan can handle the situation, and if they cannot, they can at least buy time ...

**************

Royal Palace, Hangar

A few minutes before.

Knowing that a possible ambush awaits them, everyone had their guard up and their senses heightened looking for any sign of danger when entering the Hangar, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan took the lead, both lightsabers ready to reflect any projectile to come towards them.

"Intruders, shoot," said one of the commanding droids.

This time, they were noticed by the droids the moment they entered, all the droids turning towards them and aiming the blaster, preparing for battle.

Everyone quickly sought cover to defend themselves, while the two jedi went into position to reflect the shots, but as soon as the droids aimed their guns at them, and they expected a volley of shots to come at them, the droids simply hung up, as if someone had taken the batteries out of an electric toy, they dropped the blaster and stood motionless with their arms loose at their sides.

'' .... ''

'' .... ''

'' .... ''

"Well, that was anticlimactic ...", one of the royal guards said, trying to ease the strange silence.

This seemed to take everyone out of the stupor as they started looking at each other, as if hoping that the other could explain the strange situation.

"Wait ... does the droids off do not mean that John managed to destroy the enemy's space fleet?" Panaka suggested incredulously.

"This is impossible, right? It was too fast, how could he have done this?", Asked one of the queen's maids who was among the guards who protected her.

'' That's the only explanation, John did it !!!, he saved Naboo !!! '', Padme exclaimed with a huge smile and eyes full of happiness.

"YEAHHH !!"

"HAHAHA, WE WIN !!!"

'' THAT BOY IS REALLY AMAZING .. ''

'' Strong, handsome and gentle ... I wonder if the queen would allow me a date with him ... ''

While everyone was celebrating, and Padme looks at the maid who whispered the last sentence with a smile that is not a smile, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan were looking at each other with sweat running down their faces.

'' Did the boy really manage to take down a Lucrehulk-class battleship alone and in such a short time? '', Obi-Wan asked his master through telepathy.

"It seems that, even at that age, he is so powerful, it seems that we underestimated him a little, I imagine how powerful he will be when he is older and fully trained ...", Qui-Gon also responds telepathically, while passing his hand over his beard in a contemplative gesture.

'' Well, I'm glad he's on our side ... '', Obi-Wan comments Ironically.

Qui-Gon frowned with concern when he heard this, and let out a sigh``And I hope he stays on our side ... ''

At that moment, while everyone was celebrating, IG droids that remained silent all the time, suddenly moved and stood in front of Padme, while his sensors seemed to be capturing something very distant, "DANGER!", As soon as he uttered that word a shot a more powerful than normal blaster, it hit him directly on the right shoulder, destroying his shoulder, and tearing his arm off in the process, before being sent flying by the impact force.

'' Ambush, we are under attack! '', One of the guards shouted before several blaster shots began to rain on them from behind several columns.

8 dressed people who appeared to be bounty hunters with 3 killer droids left behind the pillars, while simultaneously deactivating their camouflage devices, and started throwing concussion grenades at the guards protecting the queen, as opposed to the B-1 droids that they were very inefficient in combat, they were all used to killing, so the guards were falling like flies, 2 queen's maids died in the crossfire, using her body as a shield for the Queen.

"Master, how did they appear out of nowhere? We weren't off guard," Obi-Wan shouted at Qui-Gon as he deflected the shots coming towards him.

'' This is no time to worry about it, Padawan, we need to take care of them first, '' Qui-Gon replies as he extends his hand towards one of the bounty hunters, using TK to pull him and cutting him around the waist as he approaches enough, effectively splitting it in two, before moving on to the next one.

Some of the remaining guards were using a Naboo ship as a cover, while firing back at the bounty hunters, until what appeared to be a rocket came towards them and hit the ship.

* BOOOMMM *

'' We need to take care of that sniper !! '', Panaka shouted as he retreated close to the jedi with Padme, they were the only ones who could keep the queen safe at the moment.

At that moment the IG droids that had been sent flying, appeared behind a female Twi'lek bounty hunter, from her remaining left arm a vibroblade extended before he pierced her in the back crossing and leaving the stomach, the bounty hunter gave a painful cry for a few seconds before standing completely still, the IG droid simply threw its corpse to the side before retracting the vibroblade, and pulling its blaster, and starting shooting towards the remaining killer droids, while trying to get closer to your protection target.

'' We need to do something, we can't go on like this, we will eventually be captured '', exclaimed Obi-Wan anxiously, while pushing a bounty hunter with the force, there were still 5 of them in addition to 2 killer droids and the sniper that was still hidden, but it was at that moment that a voice rang out beside him.

'' Needing some help? '', I asked with a playful smile, by that time I had already kept the confederation's trade fleet, and all the droids that were on board in the inventory, so I was in a good mood.

'' John !! '', Padme exclaimed in relief, while the others also gave a slight smile, unconsciously they felt that everything would be fine, as long as he was here.

In the meantime, I was assessing the situation, on the way here I had felt that the situation was not good through the force, so I just kept the ship in the inventory and teleported here as soon as I entered the teleport range, but looking at the number of dead guards, besides the pilots and the queen's maids, told me how bad the situation was, and that wiped the smile off my face, and looking at Padme, I could see that she was controlling herself not to show the pain that death of the maids she considered friends was causing her.

With a little bit of anger on my face and voice, I turn to Qui-Gon and say, '' protect them, I'll take care of the rest! ''

Seeing them nod, I create a force shield in front of me, as I begin to advance towards the bounty hunters, who as they see me approach start to focus fire on me, I ignore the shots that just bounce off my barrier , then I turn to the 2 killer droids, reach out to them, although it is more difficult to control droids that have a conscience, I can still control them long enough to make them aim at their own nuclei and shoot, before turning to face the two nearest bounty hunters.

Seeing me defeat the droids with a simple hand gesture, and seeing that the situation was getting worse for him, one of the remaining bounty hunters turns to his partner before saying, '' we need to unite with the others to defeat this you go first and I'll cover you ''

'' Understood '', trusting his partner, he starts running towards the other bounty hunters to try to group up and take down the strangely powerful boy, but as soon as he starts running he notices that there are no cover shots, if turning around he can see his supposed 'partner' turn around and start running towards one of Naboo's naves, '' Damn traitor !! '', knowing that his only hope at the moment was to join the others and defeat the boy, he runs again to help them.

But what he sees freezes him in place, 2 steel cables the thickness of two fingers, came out of the boy's sleeve and are currently wrapped around their necks, and a third was coming towards him, and before he could react, the cable wrapped around his neck and lifted off the ground, he dropped the blaster in a desperate attempt to break free from the vicious grip.

'' N-Don't do this, if you kill us, Our boss, Doug won't make it cheap .. '', before he can finish his cliche threat, I tighten 'Orochi's' grip around 3, breaking their necks simultaneously.

"Do you think I fear a damn slug? In the future I will hunt all the Hutts!", I say looking at the fool's body before turning to what seemed to be the last of them, trying to steal a ship and escape.

Seeing that he was already out of reach I could use Mechu-Deru, I extend my left hand towards the ship, and using all my power, I use TK to keep the ship in place, it makes me frown, '' this drug is really heavy '', knowing that I couldn't hold it for a long time, I raise my right hand and start forming a spear of crimson calling, concentrating more power than normal, it was twice the size of the one I used against Maul, and as soon as it was formed, I launched it towards the ship stopped in midair.

'' Damm !!, Damm !!, I shouldn't have taken this job '', were the bounty hunter's last words before the spear crossed the ship's hull, melting its way before reaching the engines and exploding, making the entire ship explodes in beautiful fireworks.

'' Huf ... huf ... it was tiring ... '', I mumbled while gasping, looking at me MP who was at 4%, it was the first time I felt so much mental exhaustion, at that moment I felt a hug behind , turning around I could see Padme hugging me while fighting tears, now that it seemed like it was over, she stopped holding on.

I turned around and hugged her back '', it's okay, it's over !, everything will be fine now, '' I say softly to her, while patting her back.

(AN: remember that Padme is only 14 years old now although she looks older, and unlike the canon, here she has John, who is someone her age, who she can depend on and trust, in addition to the feelings she has for he, so she shows a little more of her fragile side that she kept under the facade of the queen in the film ..., well at least that's how I interpret)

'' One of them escaped, the sniper '', Qui-Gon approaches that moment and comments, while ignoring the hug.

'' Were you able to see who it was? '' I ask as I struggle with exhaustion to stay conscious, holding a ship was really a little reckless.

'' Yes ​​Master '', the droid IG approaches, his right arm missing and several damaged places, all for protecting padme, and as soon as he approached he showed a small hologram of a woman of the Palliduvan race, she had skin pale, fiery brown hair and green eyes.

Obi-Wan seemed to recognize her when he murmured, "Aurra Sing!"

I just burned the image of the woman and her name in my mind, I would take revenge on that woman if I found her, while slowly falling into unconsciousness still in Padme's embrace.

***************

1 day later

Naboo, Theed

The current mood was totally cheerful and festive, a huge parade celebrating the victory against the trade confederation and the Union of Naboo and the Gungan was happening, and everyone danced and celebrated while Padme in royal white clothes handed a sphere to Chief Gungan that symbolized Peace and Prosperity between both races.

I watched this side by side, while giving the jedi some casual looks that for a reason I still don't understand, they decided to show up at the parade, * (Maybe they like a good party?) * I thought, before turning to Padme and to see her finish the small ceremony with everyone shouting loudly in enthusiasm.

A few hours passed, and everyone was still dancing and eating while partying on the streets of Theed, at that moment I was returning to the palace with Padme, she was all the time greeting guests as it was the queen's duty, and she decided to return and rest.

At that moment she and I were alone walking through the halls of the palace towards the queen's quarters, until Padme decided to end the silence between asking us.

"You looked very thoughtful during the parade, did something happen?", She tells me with a small smile and a curious look.

'' Well, it's not a problem, but I was thinking about something very important, '' I tell her with a serious expression.

This seems to arouse her innate curiosity, '' a very important thing? What is it ?? ''

I look around pretending to be checking the surroundings, before holding her hand and guiding her towards the gardens, "it's a secret, come with me and I'll tell you"

She blushes at my action but does nothing to stop it and gives a shy nod.

Finding a corner in the gardens with a beautiful view of the lake, I turn to Padme with a serious expression, although inside I am very nervous, my stomach was upset and my hands were slightly cold.

"Do you remember the first time we met?", I ask seriously.

She seems confused by my question, but still nods, '' I remember the boy who just appeared in my palace saying that an invasion would occur on my planet and promised me protection ... you were really cute at that time '', she whispers the last part for herself, while smiling as she remembered it.

"Well, and do you remember that I said I would ask you for my payment when I decided what I wanted?", I ask with an even more serious expression.

Seeing my serious expression, she nods again, while wondering what was so important that he could want, that made him have that kind of expression.

'' Well, the invasion is over, and with that I completed my mission, and I decided what I want, '' I say, still keeping a serious face.

Padme shows a sad face for a moment, believing that now that I've finished my mission, I don't need to be next to her anymore, but she hides and turns to me before saying, "Yes, you did a great job all this time, protecting me, so ask for what you want, if it is within my reach, I will give it to you, '' she says seriously

And it brings a smile to my face, '' well yes, I'm sure you can give me what I want, but it's a secret, so I need you to come closer so I can say it in your ear ''

She seems to suspect this a little, since there is no one around, but she still obeys and approaches, her ears are red and a blush appears on her face when she feels my breath in her ear, until I whisper softly ...

.

.

.

.

"I want you ..., I love you!"

'' !!!!! ''

Her body freezes and her mind goes blank when she hears my words, but without giving her time to think, I take advantage of her stupor to hug her and steal her lips while I hope she doesn't reject me ...

And my hopes are fulfilled, since as soon as she leaves the stupor when she feels my kiss, she begins to return the kiss eagerly, giving my response through her actions.

We parted a little breathlessly after several minutes of a passionate kiss, Padme is giving me a slightly lost and dreamy look, before hugging me tightly and whispering back.

''I love you too ...
