Jack enjoyed a relatively easy week. The clan elders had agreed to bring their point to the Senate at the end of the month. Just in time for the first Armored Core division to come online. This division would replace the War droids that the Mandos were currently using for the simple fact that it was just and over all better system for war.Also within this week the final design plans for the Battle Star cla.s.s of ships had been finished and production would begin in two weeks time. It was in these moments that Jack had received and emergency com call from his amba.s.sador on Coruscant. Informing him of the emergency Senate a.s.sembly. His amba.s.sador could not tell him what the a.s.sembly was about only that it would be best for him to be there in person.

The trip to Coruscant from Earth had been getting progressively quicker by the months as better technology was being formed from the Star Forge. What had taken them a week before only took days, three days to be exact. The Amba.s.sadors had been given a weeks leeway to try and get their planet"s leaders here for the a.s.sembly but after that they would go on without them.
Due to Mandalorian technology Jack and co had and extra two days before they had to be in the Senate. Trish and Keith had decided to go check in on the Demon Dogs that had been stationed here on the planet. While Qui-Gon had wanted to go to the temple to check on Obi-Wan. It had been a few years since he last saw his old padawan. Jack was about to decide not to go due to the falling out he had with the council after Shaak Ti left the order completely, However something told him he need to go with his step father. Even if it was for just peace of mind.
Anakin decided to stay with their mother at the Mandalorian compound near the Senate hall and look after her. That worked out for Jack just fine, the less people knew about his brother the less he would have to worry. With that decided Jack and Qui-Gon made their way to the jedi temple.
When they arrived that had been immediately greeted by the weapons of the Temple guard. They were informed that the jedi had no meets planned for the day and no prior notice had been sent about their arrival. Things seemed to be heating up before Obi-Wan happen to pa.s.s by the entrance and spot his old Master.
"Master Qui-Gon!....Master Qui-Gon over here!" The young Jedi knight yelled as he made his way over to his friend. This had put a smile on the older man"s face. It seem no matter how much time had pa.s.sed his old padawan would all ways be the same. Walking to meet Obi-Wan half way. The two meet in a brotherly embrace.
"Obi-Wan you know you no longer have to call me Master you are a jedi knight fully fledged. While I have left the order...I am just an old married man." Obi-Wan blinked hard at this statement," What you married? Who is the poor woman you had to use the force on to accept your old face." Jack coughed a bit to get the young jedi attention," That would be my mother, and Dad how could you...Using the force on poor old mom I will have to inform my younger brother of your transgressions."
All of this information had caught Obi-Wan by surprise. However it had seemed a bit rude to have this conversation outside of the temple. Obi-Wan invited the two back to his room in the temple so they could talk in peace. The walk to Obi-Wan room was uneventful. That is if you did not count the occasional stares that Jack would receive. It"s not every day that a fully armored Mandalorian walks the hall ways of the jedi order.
After the group arrived Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan spend the next hour or so catching up on things they have missed from each others lives. During this talks Jack discovered that the Jedi had started to form military units with in the order. As well as the fact that many old teachings where now being brought back.
Though it was a good thing it still did not appease Jack"s current dislike of the current order. However this was his personal feelings on the matter and not his feelings as leader of the Mandalorian people. At some point Qui-Gon I made it known that Shmi his wife might be pregnant with his first child. Obi-Wan was over the moon for his old master.
If this had been the old Obi-Wan of the original time line he may have frowned about the news, but things were different now and this Obi-Wan no longer tried to suppress his emotions instead he had learned to live with them. So showing his happiness at his old friend"s new found happiness was a natural course of action for the young man.
Soon the two hour Mark faster approached and Jack and Qui-Gon felt like they might be over staying their welcome so the had decided to make a tactical retreat. On the way out Obi-Wan surprised the both of them by informing of his last mission. As well as what the results from said mission.
From this information Jack put together the point of this emergency a.s.sembly by the Senate. Jack thanked the jedi for his information and continued their way back to the Mandalorian compound. The two days came quickly and the Senate was called into session. Chancellor Valorum had the chamber sealed before the the session kicked in to full swing. The current member planets of the the Confederacy were strangely absent however that had suit the Chancellor just fine.
He quickly began laying out all of the information the Jedi black ops teams had discovered. To say the Senate was shocked was an understatement. Calls for the removal and termination of the offenders rang out all over the a.s.sembly. Chancellor Valorum however struck at the very heart of the issue. Would the Republic stay pa.s.sive in the face of war or would they make the first move.
Soon after this question was posed Jack move to have a vote on the floor for the answer. In a move not seen in a millennium the Senate voted to attack first. The vote itself didn"t even take long to be count, and it was almost completely unanimous. For the planet that had voted no Jack had decided to send a Spartan team to monitor them just in case.
Now that they had decided to attack the only question was when and where. It was then that a jedi senator asked that the jedi be give a month to form a plan and they would present it in a meeting a month from now. As and extra precaution Chancellor Valorum ordered a complete blackout of all information related to this issue. If any member was found violating this order they and their planets would cla.s.sify as traitors and enemies of the Republic.
After a month the Republic would then begin it"s own war build up as quickly as they could in preparation for the coming war. For Jack and the Mandalorians this was just another Tuesday. They had already being building up for this war from the moment they took control of new Mandalor. Before exiting the Senate floor Jack made his way over to Jedi senator to express his willingness to help formulate a plan of attack. The Jedi Master however seemed to take offense to this and told Jack to let them handle the plan and they could say what they thought of it in a months time.
Deciding to take the high ground for once Jack decided just to walk way from the jedi in front of him. It seemed that some of these new jedi had grown quite arrogant in the short about of time since the order had begun to change. It also seemed to slip the mind of said jedi that the people who were teaching the jedi their current tactics and ways of war came from the very Mandalorian he had just dismissed.
None of that would matter to Jack though. He quick made calls to his leading Generals. They had a month to come up with an attack plan to begin the war. All options were on the table. Jack wanted to show the Republic that not only would the Mandalorians lead them to victory he also wanted to show the galaxy why you should never cross him and his people. Atlast the wheel of wars turns and the fun was about to begin.
