HE HAS RAN AWAY WITH QUEEN PADME TO HER HOME PLANET AND THEY 

ARE MARRIED.



MEANWHILE, THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH THE CLONE WARS. THE ARMY OF CLONES

IS FIGHTING A BUNCH OF PEOPLE AND BECOMING STRONGER ALL THE TIME...



Scene pans to SPACESHIP flying past.



INT - SPACESHIP



BOBA FETT, now a teenager, is sitting in his cabin leaning against a 

wall and staring off into space. The screen wiggles and wobbles and 

shows a flashback of the black Jedi killing his father and him picking 

up his helmet. The scene returns to him sitting there.



DROID enters carrying a tray of various foods.



				DROID

	Master, I have procured these treats for your enjoyment.



Boba Fett slaps the tray out of the droid's metal hands and it 

clatters.



				BOBA FETT

	Can't you see I am thinking!? I do not need treats. Now I am 

	thinking about a way to avenge my father's death at the hands

	of the black Jedi. I want to kill him.



				DROID

	Boba Fett, do not act to rashly, you are due to meet your 

	platoon	shortly and you must set a good example of them. 

	They are not meant to fight the Jedi.



				BOBA FETT

	Very well, droid. Now clean up these treats, I am a busy man.



Droid begins to clean up the treats off the ground.



EXT - SPACESHIP



The spaceship docks in a big spaceship dock. All around there are 

clones standing in formation, waiting to be met by Boba Fett. A ramp 

lowers and Boba Fett steps off of the ramp.



Boba Fett walks up to a big group of clones and addresses them.



				BOBA FETT

	Please listen to me, I am your commander. I know that we are

	not supposed to fight the Jedi because they are supposed to

	be our 	friends, but I want to tell you that a Jedi killed my 

	father. He killed OUR father. And for this the Jedi has to 

	pay. We must strike at them when they least expect it.



EXT - PADME'S BALCONY



Anakin and Padme are standing on their balcony looking out into the 

sunset. Anakin is older now and he has a moustache. Padme is a little

bit pregnant through her dress. Suddenly panic flashes in Anakin's 

eyes.



				PADME

	What is the matter, my dearest?

		

				ANAKIN

	(Yelling) NOTHING! Nothing is the matter, I just had a bad 

	daydream.



				PADME

	What did you daydream of?



				ANAKIN

	I daydreamed that the clones who are supposed to be my friends

	are going to gang up and try to kill the Jedi. I don't want 

	them to kill the Jedi.



				PADME

	...Because Obie Wan is a Jedi?



				ANAKIN

	Shut up.



				PADME

	I sense that you still have a soft spot in your ever more 

	steely heart for Obie Wan. Once you loved him like a brother.



				ANAKIN

	Those days are over for some reason.



EXT - SPACE

A Jedi star fighter flies fast through space and then lands on the 

planet CORUSCANT. OBIE WAN steps out and walks into a door marked 

"JEDI COUNCIL."
