Anakin's POV
"Sheesh. First, Palpy tries to kill Windu and now he's on Naboo! This guy's always on the move!" I noted.
"Anakin, don't get all worked up about it." Obi Wan reminded me for the millionth time as Clay took us to the landing port, where we met a green skinned Twi'lek man who wore the same exact thing as Clay.
"Dean?" I asked. The Twi'lek man looked at me. He was sitting alone, whimpering.
"A-Anakin, I saw P-Palpatine talking with Jar J-Jar Binks while I was about to leave N-N-Naboo." Dean claimed.
"Jar Jar Binks?! What business does he have with Palpatine?" Ahsoka cried.
"He's one of the senators of the Galactic Senate, remember?"
"Okay, Dean. What exactly was Palpatine doing when you saw him?" I asked.
"I already told y-y-you, he was talking to J-Jar Jar."
"What was he talking about?"
"Well, I dunno. Sith s-stuff, I guess."
"What Sith stuff?"
"I don't know. They were talking a-about...Order 66...?"
"Order 66? What the HELL is Order 66?!" Dean's blunt answers were beginning to test my patience. Did I sense a conspiracy or something?
"I...I don't know, Skywalker! I only saw them for a-about 10 seconds."
"God, this is hopeless!"
"Temper your anger, Anakin. Trust Dean. I believe he's telling the truth." Obi Wan interrupted.
"Y-Yes, I am! H-Honest!" Dean stuttered. Before I could open my mouth to speak, he turned away and scuttled away.
"What's up with him?" Ahsoka asked.
"I honestly don't know." Clay shrugged.
"What should we do?" I asked.
"We must report this back to the Council." Obi Wan said while stroking his beard.

Author's Note: That was also a tad short. Make sure to keep an eye out for Dean, okay? ;)
