Chapter two (UTHPSW)

Invasion of Naboo.
The last few years had been kind to Harry, who had actually befriended the young miss Naberrie and was, to his disgust,actually falling in love with her. Harry had no problem with love, but he refused to give in and refused to so much as hug Padmé, until she was twenty-one and legal.
Sadly, the Trade Federation seemed to be endangering her living that long...
"Viceroy, you are only turning public opinion against you with this blockade," Harry said coldly. "The Naboo people are well liked and well thought of, you merely look like holofilm villain stereotype harassing innocents, and are risking the chance of a boycott of your services and making association with you and the Federation a financial liability."
"Your holdings in the Trade Federation do not give you the right to over-rule the choices of its Viceroy, Potter," Nute Gunray said mockingly. "But I'm reasonable, and if you forfeit your holdings in the Federation, I will guarantee the protection of your other holdings and allow you and your household past the blockade."
"You misunderstand, Viceroy. I am not begging for mercy, I do not beg. I am informing you that your actions are a threat to the Federation bottom line, and I, and my allies will be seeking your removal from the position of Viceroy. You ruined the good relationship between a trade partner, whom the Federation was making massive profits off of." Harry explained somewhat condescendingly and amusing some of Padmé's advisers.
"I will purge your influence from the Federation then!"
"Which will make your position even more tenuous by causing your other enemies to unite against you out of fear for them being next..." Harry replied, at this point talking to him like he was a child. "Whoever is advising you is likely trying to get you out of their way so that they can advance themselves further."
"I have another appointment, think on my offer Potter." Gunray said suddenly, before ending the communication.
"I'm sorry, Queen Amidala, it seems my way also failed." Harry said apologetically.
"I will contact Senator Palpatine again. Perhaps Gunray's appointment was with the Supreme Chancellor's Ambassadors." Amidala said, though she was secretly losing hope.
"Your Highness, it appears they jammed our communications..." A technician said sadly.
"Check the transmission generators..." Captain Panaka ordered.
"A malfunction?" Governor Bibble asked.
"It could be the Federation jamming us. Your Highness." Panaka conceded.
"A communications disruption can only mean one thing. Invasion." Bibble realized and Harry agreed.
"Don't jump to conclusions, Governor. The Federation would not dare go that far." Amidala said naively.
"The Senate would revoke their trade franchise, and they'd be finished." Panaka agreed.
"We must continue to rely on negotiation." Amidala said.
"Negotiation? We've lost all communications!...and where are the Chancellors Ambassadors? How can we negotiate? We must prepare to defend ourselves." Bibble argued.
"This is a dangerous situation, Your Highness. Our security volunteers will be no match against a battle-hardened Federation army."
"I will not condone a course of action that will lead us to war."
"Your Highness, they will either invade or attempt to starve your people out. And they only need you alive to sign a treaty to legitimize their occupation and take even more from your people." Harry said, hoping that she would see reason. Sadly, that failed. "You asked me to advise you on this blockade, and my advice is that they are about to invade, and take what they want by force. The Republic has no army and the Federation does... as it stands the Federation could deal massive casualties to the Republic and use that threat to bully them into accepting any atrocities committed here."
"I refuse to believe that! We have to keep faith in democracy!" Amidala argued.
"Well, I hope your faith is well placed..." Harry replied neutrally.

Her faith wasn't well placed, Padmé realized, as she watched helplessly from the palace, and as the Droid Army entered Theed. Her planet was as poorly defended and as vulnerable as Hadrian had claimed in the past, and now her people were
paying for her naivety. Padmé promised herself to improve the security of Naboo after this and listen to Hadrian more.
"I lack the means to gather my private army and liberate Naboo, and even then I would likely need reinforcements when the Federation called for the same. If we could get to Tatooine, I could awaken it and have my commanders prepare while
we gathered support." Harry informed Queen Amidala, who nodded, while thinking of how unlikely that was. "I recommend tactical retreat to do so, and I sense two nearby Force sensitives and recognize one as a Jedi who I previously met. If
you can stall, the Jedi can free you and hopefully be of assistance. Alternatively, you may refuse to cooperate and let them move you, hopefully enabling the Jedi to rescue your group more easily, and without having to enter this secure building." Captain Panaka liked the second option and said such.
"I will take your advice and refuse to cooperate." Amidala replied, to which Harry nodded.
The plan worked as intended and Harry ensured that they didn't search himself, and he made his play against the Trade Federation while he had the opportunity... Gunray had already boasted of initiating a purge of Harry's influence in the Trade Federation, but Harry's employees and allies had reduced the damage to only cost him mere billions. They were presently being led outside of the palace, with Qui-Gon Jinn, likely his Padawan, and another being nearby. Harry just wished that they would make their move alread---
They finally jumped down and began attacking the droids, with Harry joining them, activating the white blade of his crossguard lightsaber, and instantly cutting down several droids, he easily disarmed and disabled the other droids that moved forward to attack them.
"Qui-Gon," Harry said with a nod.
"Hadrian," Qui-Gon returned. "Your Highness, we are the Ambassadors, for the Supreme Chancellor."
"Your negotiations seem to have failed, Ambassador." 'Amidala' said, causing Harry to smirk.
"The negotiations never took place. Your Highness, we must make contact with the republic." Qui-Gon replied, choosing to ignore Hadrian's amused smirk.
"They've knocked out all our communications." Captain Panaka said, stepping forward.
"Do you have transports?"
"In the main hanger. This way." Panaka said, before leading everyone to the hanger.
"We need to drop by Tatooine before going to Coruscant. I need to re-awaken my personal army so that we can retake Naboo if negotiations fail."
"We can do that, but we should focus on getting off Naboo first." Qui-Gon replied.
"Master, who is this?" Obi-Wan asked quietly.
"This is Hadrian Potter, the owner of Potter Incorporated and an immortal Force-user who dislikes Jedi and Sith." Qui-Gon replied, as they neared the Central Hanger. Obi-Wan had to post-pone asking questions until later as they arrived at the hanger door.
Captain Panaka cracked open a side door to the central hanger. Qui-Gon and Harry looked in over his shoulder. Obi-Wan, Jar Jar, and the rest of the group were behind them. They saw several Naboo spacecraft and Harry's personal ship guarded
by about fifty battle droids. 
"I can disable them all in moments, if you'd like." Harry volunteered. Qui-Gon nodded, and Harry casually snapped the necks of the droids, and everyone began freeing prisoners and getting to the ships.
"Is Her Royal Highness' ship 100% operational?" Harry asked, concerned it might have been sabotaged and wanting it fixed before departing. The pilot checked, and said they had a damaged hyperdrive. "We could use my personal ship, and let the Federation think that I'm abandoning my allies like a coward... Gunray has promised me safe passage if I forfeited my holdings in the Trade Federation, and he's already begun purging my influence to take away that option. Him believing that I fled would cater to his ego and perhaps allow us to escape purely because of him wanting to brag about my fleeing."
Harry was given some confused looks. "We despise each other and I've been winning our minor rivalry, and my company can actively compete with the Trade Federation, and I actually built my company; he didn't build the Trade Federation and couldn't match such an achievement. He resents my success and would love to believe that he bested me even once..."
"It should work," Qui-Gon admitted and was quickly seconded by 'Queen Amidala' after a glance to the real Queen Padmé, and then by Captain Panaka.
With their course of action decided, everyone filed into Harry's personal ship and they quickly left Naboo. Gunray let them escape, as Harry predicted, and having never been a match for Harry and being unable to admit his own flaws, he committed yet another crucial mistake.

After a short trip, they arrived near Tatooine. Tatooine and Harry's other controlled planets were all heavily fortified and were among the most secure planets in the galaxy, with Tatooine being a fortress planet and being largely impregnable. Tatooine housed many of Harry interests; a headquarters for Potter Transport and Shipping, Potter Arms, Potter Energy, Potter Mining, Potter Logging, and the Bank of Tatooine. Harry had founded all of these companies and still controlled them to this day. The two suns of Tatooine provided Harry with a great deal of his wealth and were a colossal source of energy for him to harvest, and Harry had been doing just that, for centuries, and all while expanding his companies to profit from more sources of revenue.
"We are nearing Tatooine's Shield Gate," Harry announced to the ship, with Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, and Padmé being nearby.
"Incredible!" Padmé said in awe. Indeed, Tatooine was protected enough to repel the Trade Federation, Techno Union, Commerce Guild, InterGalactic Banking Clan, and Corporate Alliance. Harry was paranoid by nature and felt it useful.
"Thank you. Potter Arms designed and created all the protections you see here." Harry replied, while carefully typing the authorization code in.
"Authorization Code accepted: Director Potter, Founder of the Order of the Dragon." The gate Commander said over comms.
"Thank you, Commander," Harry said, before continuing into Tatooine's atmosphere and heading directly to his palace on the planet.
"Order of the Dragon?" Padmé asked in confusion.
"A group of Force-users founded to protect my part of the Arkanis sector."
Harry landed his ship on the heavily defended landing platform at his palace and powered his ship down.
"Hadrian, there are several nearby Force-sensitives..." Qui-Gon said nervously.
"Ah, my daughters must have co-workers over. Rest assured, unless you attack them, you have nothing to fear." Harry said in reassurance. "They find most Jedi to be intolerant bigots with a narrow-minded world view. They dislike the Sith
ideology even more, though." Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan didn't look at all reassured, but allowed themselves to be lead into the palace, along with the Queen and her handmaidens and security.
They arrived where Amelia Potter, Harry's daughter named after his second wife, was watching a holofilm with her sister Morgana and her co-workers.
"Must be a great holofilm," Harry said loudly, causing everyone to jump in their seats.
"Father! You scared us!" Amelia complained.
"Daughter! You ignored me!" Harry complained, almost perfectly mocking her and causing several people to laugh. "I brought guests," Harry said before introducing everyone who came with him. "Naboo has been invaded by the Trade
Federation and I need to awaken my army." That caused some gasps from his daughters and the two Order of the Dragon members.
"Expecting a prolonged campaign? You didn't even bring an army against Skere Kaan!" Morgana said in surprise.
"Skere Kaan and his pathetic brotherhood were jumped-up Dark Jedi playing Sith Lord, and I only had to kill a couple dozen of his so-called Sith Lords to get my point across." Harry said dismissively.
"Well, we can give your guests a tour, and if they are staying the night, help them settle in." Amelia offered.
"We can stay the night, I feel the Force leading me somewhere on this planet and I would like to check it out." Qui-Gon said, angering the Queen; both real and fake, and several others. Every moment that was wasted here was a moment of
suffering for the people of Naboo.
"One of the Order will show you around and make sure that you don't get lost or unwittingly break any laws." Amelia said at once. "While we are represented on the Senate as a functional constituency, we are not members of the Republic or
beholden to it's laws. If you have sensed a prospective Padawan, you will also require the parents formally surrender their parental rights and guardian status, which can be returned or removed, if either the childs expelled from the Jedi order, by them reaching the age of responsibility, or by wishing to leave the Jedi Order and the Jedi Order either returning the rights to their parents or they or their parents suing the Jedi Order for emancipation."
Qui-Gon cut off his apprentice from saying something unwise, and nodded in agreement.
"Well, I will be awakening my army, navy, and it's leaders while you are doing that." Harry said. With everyone knowing what to do, they departed. The Queen and her people were shown to their accommodations, Qui-Gon was escorted to Mos
Espa, and the date Harry's daughters were having was cancelled. Harry, however, went to his office and sealed it to all intruders.
Harry first passed the security lock keyed to his magical signature, and then entered the security lift, to access the sub-levels, while being given a biometic scan.
"Biometic scan complete, Director Potter. Please use the Force to open the lift doors or be impaled upon laser spikes." Harry quickly did so, not willing to run afoul of his own security measures, and exited the lift and walked to the stasis
chamber, which was deep beneath the sands of Tatooine and heavily fortified.
Harry began releasing his Elites from stasis... First the High General, Perseus, and his Navy counterpart, Apollos. Both names meant destruction, and they were his greatest students, both with the skills and power to butcher most of the Jedi Council.
Then it was time for the regular Generals and Admirals... Each with Grand Master level skill in Jedi and Sith arts. Harry only ever accepted the best from his Elites and those that couldn't meet the standard were demoted to the Order of the Dragon or killed... it worked and his Elites were the best of the best.
"Master?" Perseus questioned groggily.
"Yes, my apprentice?" Harry asked patiently.
"I take it that our presence is require in battle?"
"Yes, and I will be briefing you soon, but your comrades must first finish waking. And I will also be awaking a few million clones as a fighting force." Harry said, before beginning to do exactly that. Harry made sure to awaken his organic crew for his flagship; they were his most trusted and capable. Harry also awakened a few of his personal Force-users to aid in the war against the Trade Federation, and of the nearly four-hunded and fifty; he only awoke thirty of them.
And now there was only briefing, before gearing up and preparing for mobilization.

The next day...
It was early morning at Hadrian's palace, and the last night had been spent making preparations to liberate Naboo, with Harry's army now being 100% battle ready and able to mobilize at a moments notice.
It was breakfast time and everyone was quietly enjoying their meal, with Padmé being angry that Qui-Gon was wasting even more time; time that her people were spending in suffering.
"It will be okay, Qui-Gon is nearby and should here very quickly," Harry said in the direction of Padmé and the decoy Queen, leaving it ambiguous to whom he was speaking. "Once he is, we can leave for Coruscant immediately, and my forces will meet us at Naboo when I give the order as we leave Coruscant."
"Thank you, Hadrian," 'Amidala' said, appreciating his concern and his willingness to help the real Queen.
Surely enough, Qui-Gon Jinn arrived minutes later, with a young boy in tow, and still accompanied by the Order member.
"How did it go?" Harry asked.
"Young Skywalker here was enslaved by a Toydarian. He was freed, with the chip removed from himself and his mother. The Toydarian was taken into custody and will likely be imprisoned for 15-to-40 years. His mother signed the appropriate
forms and the Jedi Order will takeover as guardians of Anakin Skywalker." The Order member said in a business-like tone.
"Excellent, keep a better eye out for slaves. I want there to be absolutely no slavery." Hadrian ordered.
"I will do that, Director Potter. Our efforts are almost completely successful, with cases like the Skywalkers being the exception, not the rule." Harry raised an eyebrow at the attempted justification. "I will step up the Orders efforts and complete your noble work."
"Very good. Once the Federation is dealt with, I might be able to return and help." Harry said, pleased with his reply. "Have you all eaten already?" They nodded yes. "Excellent! When we are done, we can pack and leave immediately for
Coruscant." Those from Naboo all greatly appreciated this.
"We won't require packing and can leave immediately," 'Amidala' said, stiffly.
"I will only need to grab my battle armor and that's already packed and waiting." Harry said, being eager to move on and finally humiliate the Trade Federation.
Everyone finished eating minutes later, and they all quickly left for Coruscant, with Harry quickly hugging his daughters goodbye.

The trip to Coruscant was quiet, with most being asleep while Harry piloted his ship. The Skywalker boy was provided with warmer clothes and a warm bed to sleep in, but the childs presence was troubling for Harry... Harry had already seen his possible futures and one of them was with Padmé, and while Harry wanted her to be happy, Skywalker would end up killing her. Fortunately, Harry foresaw a clearer future for Padmé and himself, with her future with Skywalker being
extremely unlikely. Most troubling were the Sith, even if they weren't a true threat to him and were basically jumped-up Dark Jedi with egos. They were seemingly unable to use the greatest of the Sith powers from what Harry had seen, but that was to his advantage.
"Hadrian?" Padmé said tiredly, having been unable to go to sleep.
"Yes, Padmé?" Harry asked in return.
"What do you think will happen once we get to Coruscant?"
"Those in the Trade Federations pockets will stall and deny. You will likely be advised to take to the courts, which are far slower than the Senate, and a poor course of action. People will try taking advantage of you and the Naboo situation, and I include Senator Palpatine in those people. He is a consummate politician and is willing to take many small losses for one meaningful victory. Chancellor Valorum is powerless and all but friendless with two baseless scandals marring his reputation... Should this happen, your only viable option would be to move for a Vote of No Confidence in Valorum, and hope that someone better takes power and will repay your support. He will be removed quite quickly in terms of government speed." Padmé looked shocked by Harry's words.
"I know that it's hard to hear, but such corruption is why I retain control over my own holdings and keep the Republic out of them." Padmé remained silent, thinking what Harry said through. 
"What can we do about the Trade Federation?" Padmé eventually asked.
"They believe that your youth and inexperience is a major weakness and that they can bully you into compliance... You, however, seem to know your limits quite well and know when to seek advice or ignore it. That will likely grow in time and with experience. Most believe that every ruler needs to be either feared, respected, or loved, but I disagree and say that one should be all of those. Feared by your enemies. Respected by your enemies, allies, and people. And loved by your people..."
"Now, as for what to do with them. I advise you to acquire a position of strength and negotiate from it, with the purpose of making an example of the Trade Federation: salvage rights for all Trade Federation droids in the Naboo system; for Naboo companies, massive reparations, the removal of the Trade Federation presence and the voiding of their contract with your planet, and many other concessions designed to induce fear and respect in your enemies. These measures should help pay off Naboo's debt and create a budget surplus. You can take bids on contracts to ship and sale plasma, with the best deal winning. Estimated profits of one quadrillion; the droids contain highly valuable rare earth minerals and other valuable components."
"Would that really work? It could be argued as excessive..."
"It will work and it is excessive, though justified, considering the blockade and invasion. You are a relatively new face to politics, and this would serve as a warning to not underestimate or cross you. This would also greatly reduce yours and Naboo's enemies without further bloodshed. Fear of ruin or defeat can at least serve to warn off the less daring of your enemies. You would also be placating those who rightly think that the Trade Federation is exploiting Naboo and win yourself even greater support, and with the right replacement for them you might win even more." Padmé looked suitably convinced by the idea of preventing bloodshed and violence.
"We should write the new treaty when you're fully rested, though. You need to be at one-hundred percent and perhaps you can even think up improvements to the treaty."
"Are trying to tell me to go to bed?" Padmé asked in amusement.
"Politely, respectfully, and for valid reasons; yes." Harry replied. "You need to be at your best when dealing with complex treaties and politicians, because most will try to take advantage of you."
"Hadrian, you never sleep," Padmé said with a smile.
"Because of some rituals that I undertook in my youth," Harry replied. "And the ability perform them died with my planet." Harry added, seeing her look of interest. "It required an energy unique to it to perform them; an energy not unlike the Force. Sadly, adapting them to be powered by the Force is too dangerous considering that they are an exact science."
"I will try to get some rest..." Padmé said, before kissing Harry on the cheek, causing his eyes to widen in shock. "Thank you, Hadrian." She said before leaving the cockpit to retire.
Damn! Harry wasn't homosexual, but that kiss was not a good idea... He knew and could sense that Padmé had feelings for him; she was unable to hide that much, and Harry loved her too, but sex with minors was a line that he wouldn't cross
and he didn't want to get her hopes up. Harry would just have to patient and wait until she was legal before even considering the meanings of that kiss... which he already knew the meaning of... Deep down inside of his mind.
The Force was pulling them together and it terrified Harry.
