Captain Panaka had been gone for hours to see if he could find any fugitive Naboo citizens hiding in the jungles. Queen Amidala had been discussing battle plans with the five Gungan generals for hours as well.

The Queen was young, the Gungans were fearless — but none had been tested in battle. Their words were brave and smart, but also reckless.

Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan stayed quiet. Becoming involved in the affairs of the Naboo was a breach of the Jedi covenant. They could only discharge their duties — protecting the Queen — and nothing else.

Of course, if she asked their opinion, they were obliged to give it. So they never strayed far from her side.

Suddenly a lookout shouted, “Daza comin!”

“All riiight!” Anakin whooped. “They’re here!”

The Gungans murmured with excitement. Boss Nass was puffed up with the idea of war. He smiled at Jar Jar and put his arm solemnly around the smaller Gungan’s shoulder. “Yousa doen grand! Jar Jar bringen da Naboo together.”

“Oh, no, no, no, no ...” Jar Jar said modestly.

“So,” the Boss continued, “wesa maken yousa Bombad General.”

“GENERAL?” Jar Jar stiffened. His eyes rolled back and he flopped onto the ground in dead faint.

Qui-Gon heard the whoosh of approaching speeders — Naboo speeders.

Panaka was the first to come to a stop in the clearing. He was followed by his own troops — and some new ones, all Naboo citizens. As they exited the speeders, Panaka quickly dismounted and ran to the group.

“What is the situation?” the Queen asked.

“Almost everyone’s in camps,” Panaka replied. “A few hundred police and guards have formed an underground movement. I brought as many of the leaders as I could. The Trade Federation Army’s also much larger than we thought — and much stronger. Your Highness, this is a battle I do not think we can win.”

“The battle is a diversion,” the Queen asserted. “The Gungans must draw the droid army away from the cities. We can enter the city using the secret passages on the waterfall side. Once we get to the main entrance, Captain Panaka will create a diversion so that we can enter the palace and capture the viceroy. Without the viceroy, they will be lost and confused. What do you think, Master Jedi?”

“The viceroy will be well guarded,” Qui-Gon remarked.

Captain Panaka nodded. “The difficulty’s getting into the throne room. Once we’re inside, we shouldn’t have a problem.”

“There is a possibility with this diversion many Gungans will be killed,” Qui-Gon warned.

“Wesa ready to do oursa part!” Boss Nass declared.

“We have a plan that should immobilize the droid army,” the Queen said. “We will send what pilots we have to knock out the Droid Control Ship that is orbiting the planet. If we can get past their shields, we can sever communications, and their droids will be helpless.
