DAY 05 Bail slipped into the rear of the Naboo delegation's Senate pod as Palpatine thundered from the podium, "These Jedi murderers left me scarred, left me deformed, but they could not scar my integrity! They could not deform my resolve! The remaining traitors will be hunted down, rooted out wherever they may hide, and brought to justice, dead or alive! All collaborators will suffer the same fate. Those who protect the enemy are the enemy! Now is the time! Now we will strike back! Now we will destroy the destroyers! Death to the enemies of democracy!" The Senate roared. Amidala didn't even glance at Bail as he slid into a seat beside her. On the opposite side, Representative Binks nodded at him but said nothing, blinking solemnly. Bail frowned; if even the irrepressible Jar Jar was worried, this looked to be even worse than he'd expected. And he had expected it to be very, very bad. He touched Amidala's arm softly. "It's all a lie. You know that, don't you?" She stared frozenly toward the podium. Her eyes glistened with unshed tears. "I don't know what I know. Not anymore. Where have you been?" "I was... held up." As she once had told him, some things were better left unsaid. "He's been presenting evidence all afternoon," she said in a flat, affectless monotone. "Not just the assassination attempt. The Jedi were about to overthrow the Senate." "It's a lie," he said again. In the center of the Grand Convocation Chamber, Palpatine leaned upon the Chancellor's Podium as though he drew strength from the Great Seal on its front. "This has been the most trying of times, but we have passed the test. The war is over!" The Senate roared. "The Separatists have been utterly defeated, and the Republic will stand! United! United and free!" The Senate roared. "The Jedi Rebellion was our final test—it was the last gasp of the forces of darkness! Now we have left that darkness behind us forever, and a new day has begun! It is morning in the Republic!" The Senate roared. Padme stared without blinking. "Here it comes," she said numbly. Bail shook his head. "Here what comes?" "You'll see." "Never again will we be divided! Never again will sector turn against sector, planet turn against planet, sibling turn against sibling. We are one nation, indivisible!" The Senate roared. "To ensure that we will always stand together, that we will always speak with a single voice and act with a single hand, the Republic must change. We must evolve. We must strive. We have become an empire in fact; let us become an Empire in name as well! We are the first Galactic Empire!" The Senate went wild. "What are they doing?" Bail said. "Do they understand what they're cheering for?" Padme shook her head. "We are an Empire," Palpatine went on, "that will continue to be ruled by this august body! We are an Empire that will never return to the political maneuvering and corruption that have wounded us so deeply; we are an Empire that will be directed by a single sovereign, chosen for life!" The Senate went wilder. "We are an Empire ruled by the majority! An Empire ruled by a new Constitution! An Empire of laws, not of politicians! An Empire devoted to the preservation of a just society. Of a safe and secure society! We are an Empire that will stand ten thousand years!" The roar of the Senate took on a continuous boiling roll like the inside of a permanent thunderstorm. "We will celebrate the anniversary of this day as Empire Day. For the sake of our children. For our children's children! For the next ten thousand years! Safety! Security! Justice and peace!" The Senate went berserk. "Say it with me! Safety, Security, Justice, and Peace! Safety, Security, Justice, and Peace!" The Senate took up the chant, louder and louder until it seemed the whole galaxy roared along. Bail couldn't hear Padme over the din, but he could read her lips. So this is how liberty dies, she was saying to herself. With thunderous applause. "We can't let this happen!" Bail lurched to his feet. "I have to get to my pod—we can still enter a motion—" "No." Her hand seized his arm with astonishing strength, and for the first time since he'd arrived, she looked straight into his eyes. "No, Bail, you can't enter a motion. You can't. Fang Zar has already been arrested, and Tundra Dowmeia, and it won't be long until the entire Delegation of the Two Thousand are declared enemies of the state. You stayed off that list for good reason; don't add your name by what you do today." "But I can't just stand by and watch—" "You're right. You can't just watch. You have to vote for him." "What?" "Bail, it's the only way. It's the only hope you have of remaining in a position to do anyone any good. Vote for Palpatine. Vote for the Empire. Make Mon Mothma vote for him, too. Be good little Senators. Mind your manners and keep your heads down. And keep doing... all those things we can't talk about. All those things I can't know. Promise me, Bail." "Padme, what you're talking about—what we're not talking about—it could take twenty years! Are you under suspicion? What are you going to do?" "Don't worry about me," she said distantly. "I don't know I'll live that long." marvellosity the Jocasta Nu (Rolecop) has been shot! ExO_ the Serra Keto (Medic) has been shot! Rainbows the Padawan (Mason) has been shot! It is now Day 5. There are 14 of you remaining. Day ends in | ||
