The Forgotten Hero: A Star Wars Story

Civil Discussion

At dinner, Y/N finally joined the party and sat down to eat for the first time in a few days. He had been giving his food to Anakin since he wanted to make sure Ani would be strong so he didn't have to work out in the dunes by himself forever.

Y/N always stated how he wasn't hungry even though Shmi knew he was starving but Y/N always kept Anakin's best interests in mind.

Y/N: So, I know that the little pain in the ass over there invited this crew over for the storm. But what I want to know is why are a Jedi Knight and an aide to the queen on Tatooine. This place is a dump. I mean, I never expected a guy with a laser sword to just walk into my house. What's been going on in the galaxy that you guys are here?

Qui-Gon: We'll you're observant. We escaped a federation blockade on Naboo. The blockade was a little more aggressive than we had expected. We're here looking for parts to fix our ship.

Y/N: I get it. What, were they attempting a hostile takeover of the planet? Seems a little aggressive to do in the heart of the republic.

Qui-Gon: You're a wise young man, even more so than your brother. How do you know so much about what could be going on despite living on what you call a "dump"

Y/N: I like to read up on whatever I can in my free time. I go through Watto's junk pile and find any books or texts that I can. I also build transistors so I can hear cross galaxy transmissions. So I kind of hear the news? If that's what you want to call it.

Qui-Gon: May I ask how old you are, young man? You seem to be awfully intelligent.

Y/N: I'm not sure. think I'm around 16 or 17 years old. I lost count a while ago to be honest. It's hard to keep track when you don't have a calendar and you live on a planet full of sand. I hate sand.

Qui-Gon: You're not much younger than my own padawan. You would make an interesting Jedi. You and your brother.

Anakin: So where are you guys going if you're coming from Naboo?

Qui-Gon: You mustn't let anyone know about us... we're on our way to Coruscant, the central system in the Republic, on a very important mission, and it must be kept secret.

Anakin: Coruscant... wow...

Qui-Gon: And as you know our ship is damaged and we need repairs.

Anakin: I can help! I can fix anything!

Qui-Gon: I believe you can, but our first job is to acquire the parts we need...

Jar Jar: Wit no-nutten mula to trade.

Padme: These junk dealers must have a weakness of some kind.

Shmi: Gambling. Everything here revolves around betting on those awful races.

Qui-Gon: Podracing... Greed can be a powerful ally... if it's used properly.

Anakin: Y/N and I have been building a racer! It's the fastest ever... There's a big race tomorrow, on Boonta Eve. You could enter my pod. It's all but finished...

Shmi: Anakin, settle down. Watto won't let you...

Anakin: Watto doesn't know we've built it. (to Qui-Gon) You could make him think it's your's, and you could get him to let me pilot it for you.

Qui-Gon looks at Shmi. She is upset.

Shmi: I don't want you to race, Ani... It's awful. I die every time Watto makes you do it.

Anakin: But Mom, I love it... and they need help... they're in trouble. The prize money would more than pay for the parts they need.

Jar Jar: Wesa ina pitty bad goo.
