Gungan Diplomacy
The Gunguns had gathered in the swamp. Boss Nass stood on a tree as Queen Amidala, Jar Jar, Anakin, Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and the rest of the Queen’s party approached. He thought the Queen looked abnormally pale with her white makeup. The females behind the Queen were much more to his liking, especially the one with the leather vest.
Boss Nass called out to them, “Jar Jar, yousa payen dis time. Who's da uss-en others??”
The decoy Queen stepped forward.
“I am Queen Amidala of the Naboo...I come before you in peace.”
“Naboo biggen. Yousa bringen da Mackineeks... Dya busten uss-en omm. Yousa all bombad. Yousa all die'n, mesa tink.”
Captain Panaka and half a dozen guards looked around nervously. The Gungan troops lowered their long power poles. The Jedi stayed relaxed. Anakin watched everything with great interest.
“We wish to form an alliance,” the fake Queen continued.
Suddenly Padme stepped forward. She sensed that things were not going their way and felt another approach was needed.
“Your Honor…” she started to say.
“Whosa dis?” asked Boss Nass. He raised his eyes at this attractive female. This one was much nicer. Much much nicer.
“ I am Queen Amidala.” She pointed to the “Queen”. “This is my decoy...my protection...my loyal bodyguard.”
Anakin was stunned. Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon gave each other a knowing look.
The Queen continued. “I am sorry for my deception, but under the circumstances it has become necessary to protect myself. Although we do not always agree, Your Honor, our two great societies have always lived in peace...until now. The Trade Federation has destroyed all that we have worked so hard to build. You are in hiding, my people are in camps. If we do not act quickly, all will be lost forever...I ask you to help us...no, I beg you to help us.”
Amidala dropped to her knees.
“We are your humble servants… our fate is in your hands.”
During their trip back from Coruscant, the Queen had spent much time with Jar Jar, learning as much as she could about the Gungun male anatomy and she also picked up a great deal of information about Gungun culture. The Gungun society was completely male dominated and they could not conceive of a woman leader. Amidala realized that her being queen would have a negative impact on establishing a relationship between the two peoples. However, as she analyzed the situation, she came up with alternative approaches should normal diplomatic initiatives fail. During her sessions with Jar Jar, she also discovered that a female getting on her knees was a sign of submission. And claiming to be a servant was an indication of a willingness to do anything to please the male. She would now see how well her back up plan was going to work. Behind her, Captain Panaka, the Jedi and the rest of the Queen’s group had also dropped to their knees. Boss Nass saw Jar Jar wink and began to laugh. He was going to have some major fun.
“Yousa no tinken yousa greater den da Gungans.. Mesa like dis. Maybe wesa bein friends.”
Amidala smiled. Things were moving in the right direction. Boss Nass descended from the tree and walked up to the Queen. He held his hand out to her. She grabbed it as he helped her up.
“Yousa come with my. Wesa needen to have meetin in private.”
“As you wish,” the Queen answered.
Captain Panaka walked up. “I insist someone be with you, your Highness.”
“I will be fine. How else can we learn to trust each other? We as leaders must set an example for our peoples.”
Boss Nass led the Queen into an enclosed chamber and sealed the opening behind them. The chamber was sparsely furnished with a table at one end of the room and odd pieces of art decorating the walls. The walls of the room emitted a low bluish light. Amidala turned and looked up at Boss Nass.
“Howsa yousa and wesa doin dis alliance?” Boss Nass decided to let Amidala make the first move.
Amidala knelt directly in front of Boss Nass.
“Our fate is in your hands.”
She looked directly in front of her and noted she was facing his crotch.
“Yousa wantin what from da Gungans?”
The Queen could see the front of Boss Nass’s garment tenting up from his erection.
“Well, it is obvious that you have a large military unit which you can use,” the Queen answered. “I believe that I can help you prepare it for action.”
