Chapter 43 - Chapter 43: Crisis on Naboo (2)

(Jayden's PoV)

Everything was going well for me.

The farmlands on Naboo are producing a lot of herbs, grains and exotic foods, which, when harvested, gave me 10x multiplication. Also, the pharma production industries are producing different medical supplies every day, and every day, I would get a lot of those items in 10x multiplication.

The pharma companies were not just producing Stims or other items like that, they were also producing equipment like needles, IV bags, etc... Everything got multiplied to my inventory.

These items sold easily, as there was always demand for medical supplies.

My plan was going very well. I created a decent force on Pantora. With the Merchant company as the face, I hired some bodyguards, but I hired a military trainer at a high price to train them. Yeah, I didn't want to have some weak idiots.

They may be just guards for the merchant caravans for now, but in the future, they might not be, depending on how my future plans go.

Even my personal strength was slowly improving. Yeah, I said slow because it was truly slow. If you take Anakin, his growth was breakneck, maybe faster than the Order has ever seen.

Well, he is the Chosen One for a reason. There is no way to compete with such a person so easily. So, it's best not to make comparisons with such a person.

Overall, I was so happy with the gains, but then the grave news came. Well, in fact, the news was about a new mission.

"Where are we going, master?" I asked.

"Naboo", my master replied.

So, it was time for the Crisis of Naboo, huh, but I need to show I know nothing about it, or it might raise some brows.

"What happened, master?" I asked, acting as if I didn't know the plot of Star Wars.

"The Trade Federation has blockaded Naboo. Nothing can enter or leave Naboo, which means that trade with other planets has halted entirely. To avoid any issues, the chancellor assigned two Jedi for talks, but communication with them went silent".

"The last known transmission was that the two arrived at the Trade Federation Flagship, but then they went silent. The Trade Federation denies their arrival. Since we are the only Jedi near Naboo, we were given the mission", she said.

"Master, if the Trade Federation has done something, then going there unprepared, wasn't it like walking into a trap?" I asked.

My master nodded, "Yes, we need to find the missing two, and that means we may have to walk into a trap", she said with a grave voice.

She can see that we may not return from this mission. If the Federation has killed two Jedi already, to keep it from coming outside, they wouldn't hesitate to kill two more. It was simple to think.

"Okay, let's move. We need to leave promptly", she said, and we did.

Not half an hour later, we left Pantora's atmosphere and entered hyperspace. My master took the first shift, while I went to my room to rest. Not to rest, but I have a plan, which needs sleeping first to execute it.

"Master, I had a dream", I announced my arrival at the cockpit, speaking about my dream.

"A dream. If it was a normal dream, you wouldn't make such a fuss, " my master said, "Maybe a Force Dream?" she muttered to herself, asking herself if it was one.

"What did you see?" she asked me after a minute.

"I saw a Desert Planet with Twin Suns. I also heard a few words and some weird noise. I don't know how they were related, though", I said.

"A Desert Planet with Two suns, huh?" my master rubbed her chin, thinking about it.

"There are a few planets like that. If it were coming now, then the dream has something to do with the mission. We can't just check every planet that fits the criteria", she said.

"I know, master, but as I said, I heard a few words and some weird noise. One of the words I heard was Tatooine, and that's a planet, right?" I asked.

Yeah, the dream is true and at the same time not.

When I heard about the mission, I thought to use the Force Dream as a cover to give a heads-up, but I really dreamed. It was like the Force was helping me, but the images and the conversations I heard were very vague. I couldn't understand much.

Maybe I need to be more in tune with the Force to get better images and understanding of what the Force was showing me.

Though that was the case, I could understand a few things.

"Are you sure you heard Tatooine?" my master asked.

"Yes", I said with confidence.

"That's Hutt territory, why would the Force show you that planet?" she wondered.

Being a planet from Hutt's territory, neither Jedi nor Sith invested much in that planet. It was a mistake, as they discovered a powerful Force Wielder was growing up there.

If Jedi had found him when he was an infant, they could have moulded him in a way so that he couldn't have fallen to the Dark Side so easily, and the Sith, they could have made a mighty Sith Lord in secret, from the start, and the Empire they built wouldn't have fallen so easily.

"Well, whatever. I trust in the Force, but we can't run there without a plan", she said.

"Yes, master and master, there is something I think we should do before we go there", I said.

I wanted to buy parts to repair that ship. I may know the plot of Star Wars, but it is not a three-hour movie. In real life, many events would be happening backstage, and even a minor disruption could create waves.

The Sith should have known about my existence, a Jedi padawan, whose midichlorian count is near that of Master Yoda. The semi-exile to Pantora should already be known to them, one way or another.

As of now, I haven't seen any problems for me, which means they were busy with work, causing the Naboo crisis, but that should also mean they might estimate that my arrival on Naboo, especially after the Chancellor involved the Jedi.

So, going directly to Naboo now is a suicide and even Tatooine, it would come with issues. If they work faster and if there wasn't enough time for the Podrace to get the components to repair the ship, bringing them beforehand would be the best choice, for a quick disappearance.
