Padme looked at herself in the mirror as Caroline helped her do the final fitting on her gorgeous Naboo blue and gold royal gown. Her older sister Sola came in and looked at how beautiful she was.

"Happy birthday, sister." Sola said. "Naboo is very lucky that it will soon call you its queen."

Padme, however, was very anxious.

"I don't know if I can do this." Padme said. "With all that's happening... I'm wondering if maybe we should postpone the-"

"Padme, there's no time for that kind of talk." Caroline said. "A queen does not cower in fear. Wherever Boba is now, he needs you to step up and become queen. Naboo needs a leader to look up to, and you've been training for this your whole life."

Padme was soon escorted to the royal carriage that would bring her to the cathedral where she would be crowned.

Guests from all across the galaxy came out to attend the big coronation day celebration. Everyone was so excited that Princess Padme was about to officially become their new ruler.

Padme stood in her dressing room, doing some last-minute adjustments to her makeup, and was ready to walk down the aisle, when she was approached by Palpatine.

"Captain Palpatine?" said Padme.

"Hello, Princess." Palpatine sneered. And in came Dooku.

Padme gasped and called for the Jedi-teers.

Obi-Wan and a couple other musketeers came at the princess's command, but Palpatine stopped them.

"I wouldn't make another move if I were you." Palpatine said. "Unless you're willing to sacrifice... young Anakin Skywalker."

Dooku pulled in Anakin on his chains. Anakin, muffled by his muzzle, tried to tell the others not to trust Palpatine as he struggled.

"Anakin!" Padme said.

The Jedi-teers got out their lightsabers.

"Release him immediately, Palpatine." Obi-Wan demanded.

"Not to worry, everyone. I am prepared to offer you a deal." Palpatine smirked. "Relinquish the throne to me, Princess, and none of the Jedi-teers try to stop me, and Skywalker will live."

Anakin tried to tell them not to do it by frantically shaking his head and trying to scream from behind his muzzle.

But, just as Palpatine predicted, Obi-Wan couldn't say no to the deal. Neither could Padme.

"If we surrender... you'll let him go?" Padme said.

"After I receive the crown." Palpatine smirked. "I'm waiting for your decision. Tick-tock."

Padme looked at the Jedi-teers.

Padme walked down the aisle, looking terrified as she did. Caroline stood at the altar with Sola and her daughters Princesses Ryoo and Pooja, holding the crown for Padme, but they quickly noticed Padme looked even more nervous than before.

Prime Minister Valorum stood at the altar, ready to commence the coronation.

"People of Naboo, distinguished guests... we are gathered here today in celebration of a momentous occasion. The coronation of our new-"

"Hold on, Prime Minister." Padme interrupted. "I have something to say."

People were confused and concerned when Padme turned to face them.

"My loyal subjects. Friends, family. I regret to inform everyone that for reasons I cannot explain, I will not be able to become queen today." Padme said.

People gasped.

"Therefore, in abidance with the law, the throne shall go to a new successor. Captain Sheev Palpatine."

People gasped once more as Captain Palpatine stepped up to the throne.

"Princess Padme, I am honored to accept this position." said Palpatine.

Padme stepped aside and reluctantly allowed Palpatine to sit on the throne. Padme looked at a curtain in the side wing, where Dooku held a lightsaber towards Anakin, reminding her that he would kill him if she or anyone else tried any funny business.

Meanwhile, Ahsoka, Carmine, Boba, and Rex all rode as fast as they could to get back to Naboo.

"Come on, guys! No time to waste!" Carmine said.

Music played as Palpatine was handed the scepter and the orb of Naboo.

"Are you willing and able to use your power to rule Naboo according to the laws and customs?" said Valorum.

"I am willing and able." said Palpatine.

"Then repeat after me. I, Sheev Palpatine..."

"I, Sheev Palpatine..."

"Hereby promise and swear..."

"Hereby promise and swear..."

"To lead Naboo with justice and honor."

"To lead Naboo with justice and honor."

Prime Minister Valorum picked up the crown, about to crown Palpatine king.

Meanwhile, the Jedi-teers and the clones were ready to go.

"Okay, here's the plan." Carmine said. "Rex, you and Ahsoka look for Anakin, Boba and I will go stall at the coronation as long as we can."

"All for one and one for all." They said together, and they split up to do their jobs.

"If anyone should find reason for this man not to be king... may he speak now or forever hold his peace." said Valorum.

That was when the cathedral doors were Force-pushed open.

"I object!" Carmine shouted.

"Me too!" Boba said.

Padme smiled when she saw Carmine was okay, and hoping that he could stop Palpatine.

"Carmine, how nice of you to make it." Sidious said.

"Don't play dumb with me, Palpatine." Carmine said, striding down the aisle. "People of Naboo. Captain Palpatine is not who you believe he is."

"This mean, evil man has threatened my mommy, your princess and rightful queen!" Boba said angrily.

People gasped.

"It's true." Padme said.

"He's holding my brother Anakin Skywalker as a hostage," Carmine continued. "And has committed many other acts of treason, including having my father, Musketeer Qui-Gon Jinn murdered by his apprentice Darth Maul, as well as the preceding rulers King Ruwee and Queen Jobal."

Everyone, including Padme and Sola gasped when they heard this news.

"Dooku, bring Anakin out here and kill him." Palpatine snapped his fingers.

However, he did not sense Dooku's presence.

"Dooku?"

"Sorry, Captain." said a female voice. "Dooku is forever unavailable."

"He's been... taken care of." said Rex, holding up a freshly fired blaster, Dooku laying face-down on the floor.

Palpatine then found another lightsaber aimed at his throat.

"It's over, Sidious." Anakin growled. "You might've tricked us by fraudulently deeming us musketeers, but we were always real musketeers at heart."

"You are very clever, young ones." said Palpatine. "But naive!"

Palpatine Force-pushed everyone away and took Boba into his custody.

"No one move. Or the boy dies." Palpatine said.

Carmine, Anakin, and Ahsoka all stood together, lightsabers in hand.

"I should have had the two of you destroyed years ago." Palpatine said. "I sensed two powerful younglings long ago, and I knew then they would be a threat, should they ever grow into Jedi-teers. Unfortunately, those idiotic Tusken Raiders did not know the difference between Jedi younglings and your mother."

"What?" the twins gasped.

If they weren't furious before when they learned of their father's murder, they were definitely furious now! Their mother's death had been orchestrated by Palpatine as well! There was no telling how many other crimes he committed were connected to them. Had he killed Ahsoka's birth family too? Or Boba's birth parents?

"Okay! That tears it!" Anakin said. "This is for Mom and Dad, and everyone who's lost their family to you Sidious!"

Anakin and Carmine hit their comms three times to alert all Jedi and clones, and before they knew it, the entire cathedral was being evacuated and swarmed with musketeers all there to fight Sidious.

The twins began to fight together, Ahsoka joining in. And soon many other Jedi and clones did as well. Palpatine tried to fight them all off, and managed to take out many fighters. But, even a powerful Sith Lord such as himself was no match for all of them, or the horses when they joined in to fight.

And before he knew it, Palpatine was held in a Force-choke by Carmine and Ahsoka. That gave Boba time to escape the Sith's grasp and run to his mother, and Anakin got them out by placing them on Sapphire and having them run out.

"How's this for a coward?" Carmine said, punching Palpatine in the eye.

"And how's this for a girl?" Ahsoka kicked Palpatine in the gut.

"I may be a showoff, and sometimes overconfident..." said Anakin. "But when it comes to my family and friends, the only prize I need is knowing I fight for them."

And Anakin held Sidious in a Force hold, and defeated him with a lightsaber to the heart.

And it was over. Sidious was defeated.

The people cheered as the three Jedi-teers responsible for initiating the fight that defeating Darth Sidious emerged from the cathedral. Rex hugged Ahsoka in congratulations, and they kissed.

Caroline ran into Carmine's arms. And Padme into Anakin's, and he spun her in his arms.

"Caroline..." Carmine gasped.

"Carmine..." Caroline sighed. And she pulled him into a kiss.

"Caroline? Are you kissing a commoner?" Padme teased.

"Jedi aren't the only ones full of surprises." Caroline shrugged.

Padme looked at Anakin and smiled gratefully. "You saved my home, and my son. We are all forever in your debt. Your parents would be so proud."

"Yours would be proud of you too." Anakin said, caressing Padme's cheek. He leaned forward and closed his eyes, once again about to engage true love's kiss... until Boba came between them, wanting to be with his mother and her love, and the two each ended up kissing one of the boy's cheeks.

The couple laughed as they'd given the child two kisses instead of one to each other.

"You little rascal." Anakin chuckled.

"Is he be my daddy now?" Boba asked.

Anakin looked at Padme. "Marry me?"

"That, I'll do for my first act as queen." Padme said.

The couple kissed each other once more."

"I now pronounce you husband and wife." said the preacher.

And Anakin and now Queen Padme stood at the altar as they kissed for the first time as husband and wife.

As a special addition to the ceremony, Padme had her new husband, brother-in-law, and Ahsoka step forward.

"Please kneel." Padme said.

And the three friends knelt before the queen as she picked up her scepter and motioned to each of them.

"In recognition of your united courage, in gratitude for saving Naboo... I hereby dub thee Anakin and Carmine Jinn-Skywalker, and Ahsoka Tano-Koon... Naboo's newest royal Jedi-teers."

The crowd cheered as they were all saved and now not only had a new king and queen, but three new musketeers who saved them all to protect them.

"What do you say guys?" said Anakin, raising his lightsaber.

Carmine and Ahsoka united their swords with Anakin's

"All for one and one for all!" All Jedi-teers raised their swords and tossed their hats in celebration of their official newest additions.

"Brava, my friends! Our three friends' dream has finally come true." said Carousella.

"You know what this calls for?" said Remix.

"One more song!" They said together.

Anakin: All for one, hey

Carmine, Anakin, and Ahsoka:
All for one and one for all Musketeers sing all for one

Musketeers:
And all for one
And all for one and one for all
And all for one and all!

"And so..." said Qui-Gon. "The three Jedi-teers and their true loves became the greatest musketeers in the history of their kingdom. The young prince finally had a father again, and everyone lived Happily Ever After. The End."

The kids cheered as the story ended happily.

"I love that story." Gabby said.

Just then, Anakin entered the room.

"Alright kids, bedtime." Anakin said.

"Coming, Daddy." Gabby said, getting up.

Boba got up too. So did Lamenta, and Carmine picked her up.

"I think you'd be a brave musketeer, Daddy." Lamenta said.

Carmine chuckled and said, "That's sweet, Lamenta. And you know, dreams really can come true. You just gotta work hard to make 'em happen.

And there we are. The end.
