Something wasn’t right with this Xanatos guy. Katja just didn’t know what.
Besides that he was engaged with Lady vu Xobande. Pf, Lady... ! He surely played
a foul game... but what game?

“Katja” the whiney voice of Padme called. 
“Yes, sweety?” she replied absently.
“I have something for you” Katja focused herself on her protegée and
inhaled deeply, “Wow. That’s... wow” 

A man in a long black cloack wathed the very movements of the two females
unpatiently waiting for an opportunity to shot the younger one. The older had to
move out of the way in order to do so and be over with it. He didn’t like this
planet.

And his lucky moment came. The woman moved. He smirked and he pulled the
trigger. But in this moment something clashed against his arm – a rat. The
shot didn’t hit the girl but the air. He cursed. Maybe not his lucky moment.

Shouting could be heard. The guard was coming. Not his lucky moment at all. He
jumped to his feet an went to the room the two females were in to end his task.
But the older woman held the princess in a atight embrane and shielded her. 

“Out of the way” he hissed. But Katja shook her head.
“Over my dead body, bastard” she snapped and clutched something between her
fingers. The present Padme gave her. It was a puppet made of glass. Beautiful.
Perfekt. He let it burst as to scare the woman.

She flinshed. And slapped him. And now the guards had arrived. The man leaned
closer to her and his hood slid down. She looked directly in two angry yellow
eyes. 

“I would like to kill you” he whispered, “I really would like that... so
be careful little puppet” Then he ran. 
Katja slumbed down besides Padme. 
“Oh god”


The father of Padme was outraged. After he had shouted at the incompetent guards
he demanded to speak with the Jedi Council. 

“Master Yoda, my daughter was attacked today”
yoda sighed deeply. “Very sorry I am. Well she is, I hope?”
“As well as one could be after something like that” The King replied, “I
want a Jediteam to ensure the security of my daughter!” 
“Of course” Yoda nodded, “A Jediteam we will send”


“Hey, Katja? Are you there?” Lyn asked as she opened the door to their
mutual appartement. 
“Yeah” replied her friend, “I cooked” 
“Oh no. Please, don’t make me eat it” whinned Lyn. 
“Oh, shut up! Anyway do you know, what happened at the palast today?” 
“Uh... I overheard some guests talking about someone attemting a murder or
so..”
“Well I did see the murderer. He was only inches from me apart” Katja
narrated.
“WHAT!?” shrieked Lyn.
“Yeah. He’s some strange guy. Has tatoos all over him... and the scariest
eyes I’ve ever seen. Wanted to kill the princess, but didn’t sucees. And now
some Jedi will come to ensure security” Katja said in a rush. 
Lyn made here  and there a sound of incredulity.Then they ate in silence. 
Katja observed her friend who semed much more carefree since she was with
Xanatos... befriended... . But Xanatos had a finaceé. And that was going to
hurt Lyn. But maybe it was better to tell her now rather then let her find out
when she’s grown more attached to him... or in love with him. 
She drew in a deep breath.
“Lyn I have something important to say. About Xanatos” she started. Lyn
stared at her.
“What did you do? Kiss him?” she joked.
“No. Not me anyway” replied Katja.
“What?” 
“Lyn, sweety. Xanatos has a finaceé” Katja said sighing. She didn’t want
to hurt her friend like that. But Lyn had a right to know. She needed to know. 
“He... he can’t...”
“Apperantly, he can. Her name is Essentiella vuXobande. A peer”
“But... he... we had so much fun... and... he kissed me” Lyn said
desperatly, “Why did he do this if he’s engaged?” 
“I don’t know” Katja hugged her friend.
“That son of a bitch!” Tears leaked out of Lyns eyes. Her friend nodded.
“Yeah, some son of a bitch he is!”

~+~
 
Well yeah, Katja you’re right. But that’s why we all love him ^^
