	Title: LOST AND FOUND 17/4 Obi, Q.G.J and others Author(s): GKilkenny Timeframe: AU Before the JA books Obi is Five in the beginning. Characters: Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, Yoda Mace and others. Genre: PG Keywords: Obi Angst- and maybe comfort. Summary: A camping/training trip turns into a struggle for survival for one little boy. When Presumed dead, he is left behind on a planet all alone. Will he survive? will the Force save him?. Or will the Dark side finish the job. Notes: This is My first attempt at posting a story, Mostly I love to read. So I am writing for the fun of it. I don’t own any of the characters from the movies or the books, all other characters are from my imagination. Jedi training begins in earnest as soon as the youngsters can walk, they are trained in the Jedi tradition, they are trained to be the defenders of the weak, guardians of peace in the galaxy. But in the beginning crèche lings learn balance, levitating small objects and how to meditate using the force. As they grow their training becomes more involved they study philosophy, History, diplomacy, and seek to better understand the nature of the Force and their connection to it. The study of other planets in the solar system is a necessary requirement. Children from the age of five and upwards go to the planet Rayma for training, which is three days travel from Corrusant. It is a planet that was practically wiped barren by a fierce ion storm some fifty years before. Small pockets of inhabitants were gradually starting to populate the areas where vegetation and trees had begun to reappear. The Jedi used the Deserted side of the small planet for training in survival plus a camp out. The area used by the Jedi was a mixture of plains and was quite mountainous in parts, very rugged terrain, below the plateau a fierce river ran through the mountains. A team of seven Masters and their senior Padawan’s and several Knight’s escorted 20 crèche initiates ranging from five years through to eight year olds to the planet for instruction. One Master/Apprentice team was Qui-Gon and his apprentice Xanatos. The training was two fold it taught the young ones survival technics, but also was a trial for the Senior Padawan’s. These Padawans were about to take the step into Knight hood and were required to show their skills when dealing with very young children. Xanatos was a brooding young man who disliked children especially those who were bright in the force. Over the past two years he had been meeting with a Senator from Naboo, every spare chance he had he would spend time with the Senator. He liked him, he always felt important when he was with this Senator. Xanatos was fed up with being the perfect Padawan to his Master, Xanatos wanted riches he wanted the good life like the Senator had. This man filled his head with thoughts of riches and power, until Xanatos could stand it no longer and asked the Senator for his guidance and help. The Senator was an evil man and had manipulated the Padawan into turning to the Dark side. With promises of riches and power beyond his wildest dreams, and all Xanatos had to do to achieve his dream was to do one little job for the Senator. Over the past five years the Senator had been assaulted with visions of his own demise, in his vision it was always the same. A Jedi bright in the force, hunted him down, all his plans destroyed because of one Jedi, the problem was the force was protecting this Jedi, the Senator had felt the shift in the force when this child was born. He knew the child was in the Temple but was not sure which child it was. Every time he came close to discovering the child’s identity the force would block his senses. The Senator had told Xanatos to find and bring the child to him. Xanatos thought he had a fair idea which child it was. His Master Qui-Gon had been very interested in a small fair haired boy by the name of Obi-wan Xanatos had heard his Master and Mace Windu discussing the child with Master Yoda. He had overheard them say that the child was strong in the force and would be a great Jedi. But Master Yoda had been having visions of darkness clouding the boys future. So it just happened that the youngest child in the group of 20 to be sent to Rayma was Obi-wan Kenobi. Several days into the training program the children were given a rest day. Xanatos thought that now he would get his chance to get rid of the Kenobi brat once and for all and he would reap the benefits from the Senator. Even though the Senator had wanted the child brought to him alive, Xanatos thought it would be easier just to kill him. “Master, I would like to take some of the children on an excursion up to the plateau." Xanatos said smiling widely. Master Jinn and several other Masters looked up the hill to where Xanatos had pointed. Qui-Gon being the most senior Master answered “No Padawan I believe it would be too dangerous” Some of the older children whined “Awhh Please Master Jinn we want to see the river we will be careful. They all chirped”. Two other Padawans, friends of Xanatos spoke up saying they would go too. Xanatos didn’t want them along but knew he could blackmail them if he had too, his plan was to take Kenobi to the edge put the force inhibitor collar that the Senator had given him around the boys neck and throw him off the cliff. After discussing it with the other Masters Qui-Gon relinquished and agreed. “Very well then but all the Padawan’s will go as well. We will hold you Padawan’s personally responsible for the children’s safety” “My young apprentice, you most of all must show your responsibility, I am trusting you to look after these young ones” Qui-Gon added. “Yes Master” Xanatos said as he nodded. “Come on then Lets go explore” all the children except one started forward, Xanatos looked back “aren’t you coming Obi-Wan”. The small boy lowered his head and shook it. “don’t want to go; Not safe to Go” he murmured. “We will take care of you” One of the other Padawan’s said. Xanatos couldn’t let the boy think about it too long otherwise the Masters may agree, so he swept the boy in his arms before the child could say anything and took off at a run “Come on last one to the tree has to wash the dishes when we get back” he shouted. Obi-wans eyes locked onto Master Jinn’s, his eyes pleaded for help. A swift shift in the force made Qui-Gon shudder, he started to rise saying “Wait…. When one of the other Masters put his arm on Qui’s “Don’t be a spoil sport Qui? You trust your apprentice don’t you? We trust ours” “Yes yes You are right I am just imagining things. I trust my apprentice with my life” Qui-Gon answered. Up at the top of the plateau Xanatos split them into groups, then said he was taking Obi-wan with him. When the other Padawans had moved off to explore with several of the children The two Padawan friends of Xanatos looked at Xanatos confusion on their face, why are we splitting up We thought we were exploring together.” they said. Xanatos who was still holding Obi-wan turned to his fellow Padawan’s and with an evil sadistic smile. He said. “I want to show Obi-Wan something special just for him. Do not follow me or you will regret it.” He said as he forced shoved the Padawan’s out of his way, they watched him run off and could here the pleading cries of Obi-wan as he disappeared behind the rocks. Once they had recovered they told their small group of children that Xanatos was just playing hide and seek, the Padawan’s started searching for Xanatos. Xanatos was holding the struggling child, looking right through him. From inside his cloak he pulled out the force suppressor collar fastening it around the child’s neck. The loss of the force made Obi-wan scream. Xanatos lifted the screaming child up high and with a force assisted push flung the boy off the top of the plateau and into the swirling torrent of the River below. In the distance a frightening scream split the air, the sound of it exploded through the plateau, Masters shot up from their seats all eyes were glued to the plateau they opened themselves to the force sensing unbelievable anguish then nothing, the force was silent. All knew that one had relinquished their hold on life and was now one with the force. Everyone started running towards the sound, now another scream of anguish was heard through the force. But to Qui-Gon it felt false, he could sense who it was screaming, but he was not doing so out of sadness, but out of thrill and accomplishment. He would keep these thoughts to himself until he found out what had happened. When the entire group had gathered at the top of the plateau, children where crying several Padawan’s were staring down at the river in shock, and Xanatos was holding his head crying “Nooo,Nooo Noo… He saw his Master and ran over crying “He slipped He slipped I’m sorry Master I’m so… sorry." Then Xanatos crumpled to the ground. Qui-Gon went over to the edge and looked down along with the other Masters, “Can you see him I cannot feel his life essence." The other Masters shook their heads “It would be impossible for him to have survived a fall like that there are so many rocks." “We must retrieve his body and take him home.” Qui-Gon stated. For the rest of the day and all the next they searched for Obi-wan’s body. But to no avail. Qui-Gon was leading two other Masters along the river bank, when one commented that it was strange that they hadn’t found his body. Qui-Gon agreed, but Knight Walker looked confused. “Strange Why”? he asked. “Well look up to where he slipped, if that is what happened?" The Master said Knight Walker looked up and realised what they meant. “Oh my but we have searched every bit of that area, there should be blood or something?" he said Knight Walker voiced what the other two were thinking. “Do you think he was thrown that is the only way he could have landed in the river and Padawan Kieron said he saw his body floating in the water?" Qui-Gon was stunned at what was being suggested. It suddenly dawned on him that it was his Padawan that possibly threw little Obi-wan Kenobi to his death. Silence came over the entire group, the sound of a comm. link broke the silence. Mace Windu was on the other end. When the accident happened, the Temple had been contacted. Mace was calling for an update. “Mace” Qui-Gon said as he gritted his teeth. “We have not found the child’s body, we need to return to Corrusant immediately, You should send a search party here to retrieve him." Master Windu agreed and said he would organise the search party. The trip back to Corrusant was eerily quiet. The other Padawan’s all looked guilty and sad although they had not done the deed. But Xanatos was quite normal occasionally Qui-Gon would hear him humming. Xanatos had closed down their bond and Qui-Gon had no desire to speak to his Padawan at the moment. When they arrived at the Temple guards came to escort Xanatos to a holding cell. “Master what’s going on why is Temple security involved I have done nothing wrong.. Master what is going on?" Xanatos screamed. “Padawan I hope you have done nothing wrong, But I fear that you have My senses tell me you have hate and anger in your heart, your anger is radiating through the force Now please go with Security and we will discuss this later” But when security went to grab hold of him the dark side revealed itself, he turned black eyes towards his Master screaming “I hate you, you are all pathetic, just like that brat Kenobi, pure little Jedi, well it didn’t help him, He’s dead Ha..Ha…Ha… He wont be able to stop the dark Lord of the Sith now he laughed.” The council had an immediate session, they discussed what Xanatos had said about the Sith. Some Council Members had sensed over the years that Darkness was creeping into their lives. But Xanatos was unable to enlighten them, as he had not only fallen to the dark, but had fallen into insanity. Babbling incoherently, the Council declared Xanatos insane. His force ability was stripped from him, and he was sent to be confined in a mental institution. -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear.

	I really like the idea and plot for this Gkilkenny. I hope you have more to post. One thing though... It does get a bit confusing reading your dialogue because some of your quotes will be in the middle of a character's statement. Clean that up a bit and it'll flow a lot better! -----signature----- Want to know what ANTAR and TLST are? Visit Hell's Chance! http://www.hellschancecantina.com Proud Master to Lola64!

	Cold…. so cold….. he was shivering. (Why do I hurt so much, I should be warm. Why am I cold) these thought raced through his head. He felt cold and sick his head was pounding. Open your eyes he thought and when he did, he could see blue sky, he moved his head and pain shot through it. He lifted his hand to touch the thing around his neck. It was burning him, he tried to pull it off, but to no avail. He looked around he was laying flat on his back at the edge of the river. The water was rushing over and around him. (I’m in the water) he thought How did I get in the water? What happened? to me. He sat up slowly his head hurt, he felt around and found a big lump on the back of his head. He was so wet and cold he stumbled to his feet, to get out of the water, he staggered out and sat down on a rock in the sun. After a while he thought (Where am I) (Who am I) that last statement made him realise he didn’t remember anything. Just around the bend he could hear the sound of rushing water like it was falling and crashing down. He was scared and he didn’t know what had happened to him. He got up and started to walk towards the sound. Soon he was standing very close to a large waterfall that dropped a few meters then crashed onto a ledge then dropped again and then onto another ledge. Looking down made him dizzy, so he stepped back away from the edge as he stepped further back he didn’t notice a large hole behind him, water was cascading down it. He stumbled back and fell into the opening, he started to slide, as he did he started to scream. This hole did not go straight down, it seemed like a massive slippery dip winding slowly around and around. It was quite a large tunnel and air travelled through with him. It seemed to go on forever and it was very dark, wrapping his little arms around himself he slipped further and further into the black hole. In the distance he could see something, a small dot. He centred his eyes on the spot and as he got closer the dot got bigger, until it became a bright light. Then slowly he realised it was the end of the tunnel. As he slid out with the water he ended up in a large pond. The force of the water behind him carried him half way across the pond. He splashed to a halt he could feel solid ground under his feet so he stood up. It was a pond nestled at the foot of a mountain, surrounded by plants and trees, if he wasn’t so scared and cold he might have thought it was a beautiful place. Once he climbed out of the water he looked around for the big waterfall he had seen earlier before he fell in the hole. It was gone. He looked up at the mountain it was so high. He wondered were the waterfall was. He looked back past the pond and could see lush green grass, trees, bushes with berries on them and flowers. In the trees he could see fruit hanging from the branches. Turning away from the pond he could see lush foliage and an abundance of plant life. Through a clearing he could see flat ground, with clumps of funny looking trees, that had bunches of yellow things hanging down like fingers. He was still shivering, but soon the sun was beating down on him warming him and drying his clothes. For some reason he felt safe , his head was hurting and he was getting sleepy, he went over to a clump of the bushes and laid down in the grass, soon he was fast asleep. ……… Back at the Temple Qui-Gon was waiting at the space port to greet the search team as they came back he had hoped that they would have found the boys body. Qui-Gon felt so guilty about the fate of the little boy, every time he closed his eyes he could see the pleading look the boy had shot him just before he was taken to his death. He had felt a disturbance in the force and should have acted upon it, but he hadn’t and now an innocent child was dead. The news from the retrieval team was not good they had given up the search, the boys body would remain forever on Rayma. Qui-Gon was devastated; he blamed himself for not listening to the force and Obi-wan. The boy had practically pleaded for help and I ignored him. he thought. The Temple had a memorial service for the little boy, and after Qui-Gon pushed himself deeper into his work and started taking on more and more missions, so he wouldn’t have time to think about what happened, and why his apprentice did what he did. …….. Several weeks later young Obi-wan who still didn’t know who he was, was collecting fruit for his meal. He had set up a shelter of sorts in a cave in the mountain above the pond. The entrance of the cave would get the first rays of sunshine in the morning. It would help to brighten his spirits after a lonely and frightening night. Obi-Wan had always been afraid of the dark. Now he was afraid, alone and with no one to comfort him. He was just putting the food he had gathered in the corner of his cave when he heard a whining sound. Looking up he saw a red glowing object hurtling towards the paddock. He watched it crash and slide along the ground, when all was silent, Obi decided to investigate. By the time he got to the crashed space craft there was smoking billowing out of the opened door. He went to the doorway and called out, he thought some one might be alive. He heard a groaning noise. He peeked in side but couldn’t see anything, the smoke was travelling along the ceiling and out the door. So he stepped just inside. He saw a creature shackled to a post it looked like a man with elephant trunks coming out of either side of his head and he was a blue colour. He watched him for a moment but he didn’t move. Then he heard a moan and looked around and could see the pilot moving. He went closer to the man he had dark skin and had armour plates on his chest and a helmet on his head. Obi noticed the blasters attached to his belt and shackles hanging from his belt also. This man scared Obi he looked evil. As Obi was watching the dark skinned man, he heard another moan from behind him. He turned to see a large fury creature laying on the floor, he had shackles on. This one was taller than a man, he had hair all over him, a flash of memory came to him. (Wookie) Obi rubbed his temple and thought (what’s a Wookie?) His thoughts were interrupted when the Wookie got up, and stumbled towards the pilot not taking much notice of Obi. Obi wasn’t sure whether he should run away or not, but when the Wookie put his chains around the pilots neck and choked him, that scared Obi into running out the door. He scurried into his cave hoping the Wookie would go away, he was scared and didn’t know what to do. He watched the glow of the ship burning for a while then must have dosed off. He woke with a jolt, the sun was filtering into the cave, he must have slept all night. He wondered why the Wookie hadn’t found him yet, (maybe the Wookie burned up in the ship?) He thought.. When he looked down he could see the big being laying on the grass near the pond, he was very still. But he didn’t have the shackles on anymore. After a while Obi wondered if he might be dead, but his compassion for living beings took hold and he thought the Wookie might be sick and might need help. He was confused he wished there was someone to ask what to do. Finally he crept down and stood far enough from the being just in case he attacked. He watched for a while, noticing his chest going up and down, he was alive. Soon he moved a bit and Obi stepped back a pace and climbed up onto a large rock out of reach. The Wookie opened his eyes and looked straight at the boy. He mumbled something “Arghhe” but Obi didn’t understand him, after a while the being pointed to the water. Obi realised that he must be thirsty, but Obi was to scared to move. Eventually the Wookie started to crawl to the pond. He drank his fill then sat up slowly. He turned to Obi rubbing his stomach indicating that he was hungry. Obi realised he was hungry too. So he decided that he would bring some food but he wasn’t going to show him where his home was. So instead he nodded and pointed to the trees, then Obi ran off. When he came back the hairy being was sitting by the pond leaning against a rock. Obi put the food down warily watching him, he set it down near his feet then backed away. The Wookie nodded his head and smiled. It made Obi feel good. Obi sat on another rock far enough away for safety, and ate some of the food he had gathered. He noticed the hairy being’s hands were all bent out of shape like someone had crushed his hands. His feet were crippled up as well. Over the next few days Obi started to relax a bit around the Wookie, he hadn’t tried to hurt him and he never tried to grab him. Finally one day the Wookie pointed to the collar around his neck, Obi thought he was asking what was it. “Don’t know” Obi said “But it burns me sometimes” The Wookie tried to make Obi understand that he would get it off for him. But Obi was still scared, the Wookie knew what the collar was and wanted to help this boy who had helped him. So he decided that he needed to gain the boys trust, but he couldn’t do that while the boy kept his distance. So he pretended to faint, after some time Obi crept closer to see what was wrong, as he did the Wookie grabbed him pulling him close to his furry chest. The boy started crying and struggling, the big Wookie started rubbing gently along the boys back and stroking his head, finally the boys struggles and crying stopped. Obi looked into the Wookie’s eyes and they were filed with compassion. “Y-our not Going t-to h-hurt me?” Obi stuttered. The gentle giant shook his head. Obi relaxed into the embrace, he kept rubbing his back and started humming. He then took hold of the collar finding the lock and pried it loose. As soon as the collar was removed the force flowed back into the boy’s body and with it came his memories. He began to shake slightly at the remembrance of what had happened to him. He started to cry once more only this time he hugged the big hairy man and in turn the Wookie rocked the boy while soothing him. Once they had gotten over the language barrier, Obi learnt the Wookie’s name was Krag and he had been a slave on that ship. He had been captured a few years before and the pilot was his owner and was very cruel. -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear.

Gkilkenny Registered: Mar '04	Date Posted: 4/20/05 4:20am Subject: RE: LOST AND FOUND AU 20/4 JA Obi, Qui, Yoda and Mace
	A year went by and Obi and Krag became good friends. Krag taught Obi how to defend himself. Before the Wookie became a slave he had worked with some Jedi and had learnt many of their exercises and skills. So he taught them to Obi. Krag explained to Obi that when he was able to use his force abilities properly he would be able to go and get help. They had explored every inch of their home and the only way out was to climb the mountain. But unfortunately Krag was unable to climb because he had been crippled by his owner, and was unable to use his hands to grip anything. He could walk but he couldn’t bend his legs very well. Krag knew the boy was afraid and would not leave until he was much older, so they settled back and made this place their home. Over the next two years Krag taught Obi as much as he could about survival. He taught him how to count. It was hard because the Wookie didn’t speak Basic very well and it was hard to teach someone properly when he hadn’t had much schooling himself. The boy was growing stronger every day, but even at eight he would not leave Krag to go find help. Krag knew he was running out of time he was not a well Wookie, and knew he had to teach this boy as much as he could before it was too late. He spent every waking hour trying to build his confidence and prepare Obi for a time, when he would be alone again. By the time Obi was nine, Krag knew his time with the living was close to an end. His heart was breaking with thoughts of Obi being left alone. He tried to hang on to life, but he was just too weak to continue. Krag was not one to pray, but he believed with all his heart that, he had been sent here to be with this child for a reason, he wouldn’t believe otherwise. Obi didn’t know Krag was so sick. He had told Obi that he just had a fever. hoping that he would get well again. One night Krag wasn’t feeling well, he had been sick for a couple of days Sometimes he would be so hot he couldn’t stand the heat then he would be shivering and he coughed a lot. Krag had drunk all the water in their cave so Obi went out to the pond and filled the container. While he was there he gathered some food, when he brought it back to the cave it was so quiet. Obi couldn’t sense his friend in the force, he rushed to where Krag was laying and put his hand on his heart. Nothing…. Obi hitched a breath and called out Krags name….nothing…. Obi let out a wail, he knew his friend had passed into the force. He sat there for several days not wanting to believe he was gone. Finally he said his goodbyes and left Krag in the cave. Obi would never come back to their home he would go back up to his first cave. He had abandoned it because Krag couldn’t climb up to it. So once again Obi was all alone. -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear. Links to Stories in my Bio. Obi-Wan forever.

	mouse2 thanks for reading. More coming. A year past, even though he didn’t know how old he was or how long he had been there, it didn’t seem to matter. He thought about Krag and how he had been there for him, and when he was sad he would practice the lessons the Wookie had shown him. He had food and water and the little animals in the forest were his friends. He played with them, and helped them store food for the winter months. Several of the animals spent the cold winter months in Obi’s cave. They Kept him company on the dark and lonely nights. Each day when the sun rose so did Obi and he continued to do the exercises Krag had taught him. He had long since forgotten about trying to go for help, he knew he had been there for a long time and he remembered being thrown off the mountain, he just decided that he was not wanted and that’s why no one ever came for him. At night he would sit and stare at the stars imagining they were some one he could talk to. He would whisper to them, asking them why this happened. He would ask the stars what he did that was so wrong, to be left all alone. He asked if any one ever thought of him, if they ever looked for him. Some times he would hear things in his head but he didn’t understand what they were saying. He sometimes wished he knew more about the force so he could talk to somebody, like the Masters did with their Padawan’s,(with that bond thing) He thought. He sighed watching the stars, when suddenly one started to twinkle and it grew bigger it seemed to be getting closer. He didn’t think stars made a noise but as this one got closer it did, then he realised it was a space ship not a star. He nervously watched as it landed at the other end of the paddock. He could sense something familiar in the ship, but was not sure what it was, it scared him and he wasn’t going to go near it anyway. He didn’t want to make another friend then loose them. He was confused and scared, even though he wanted some one to talk to He was afraid. So he hid in his cave. -------- Two weeks earlier, back at the Temple Master Yoda had been meditating in the room of a thousand fountains. He had been sensing a disturbance in the force for many months now. At first the ripple he felt was very weak, hardly noticeable. Only when he was deep in meditation had he felt it. It was as if someone was reaching out to him, wanting to talk, the presence felt sad and lonely, then it would disappear. But now after several months the presence was getting stronger. The ripple became a wave and it happened each night for four days. Master Windu and Qui-Gon had noticed the look of despair on the wise old masters face and could feel his sadness through the connection they shared with him. Whenever he came out of his meditations, they would ask what was wrong, but only got a cryptic reply “Tell me what is wrong, the force should; then we all will know” They could feel the exasperation bubbling in him. Then finally he said. “Come with me you will, meditate with me you must. Tell me what you sense you will” -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear. Links to Stories in my Bio. Obi-Wan forever.

	mouse2 Glad your still reading thanks Mace and Qui-Gon knew it would do them no good to protest so they obeyed the command and followed the small master to the meditation gardens. After several minutes of deep meditation all three felt a faint presence it seemed far away. A sense of loss was felt, loneliness, desolation, but projected out from the presence was a brilliant white light. “What can it be” Master Windu commented. “It appears like someone is trying to reach out to us. But from where and why?” Qui-Gon inquired. “Familiar this presence is, place it yet I Cannot. But come to me it will” Yoda stated. “It is unusual that we sense a presence, we have no bond to another and yet we all sense it.” “The presence seems faint and fluctuates in and out, It seems very far away, and who ever it is only has minimal training in the force” Qui-Gon admitted. He thought it impossible that it could be coming from a person. Each night the three Masters tried to connect to the presence, but it was as if the presence either didn’t know how to or didn’t know it was broadcasting. After the eleventh night Master Yoda sprang up from his meditations jolting the other two out of theirs. “Master Yoda what is it, what do you see?” Mace inquired. “Planet I do, grass and trees, Pond Force sensitive being there, felt that presence before have I long time ago, five years to be exact. “Five years Master” Qui-Gon asked. “Why hasn’t this force sensitive being contacted us before now?” “Whose presence is it, is it someone we know, another Master perhaps. What planet is it?” Qui-Gon inquired. “Child it is Boy of Ten he is” Yoda said nodding his head vigorously. “Ten, but that would make him five when you last felt his presence." Qui-Gon queried. “Five years Master Yoda, what planet are you talking about?” Mace queried, realising before Qui-Gon what Master Yoda was implying. "Planet is Rayma” Yoda nodded briskly. “You cannot mean that we are feeling the presence of the child Obi-wan Kenobi”? Qui-Gon blurted out “But he is dead. How can we feel him after all this time” Understand I do not, but know it is him I do, go we must to Rayma find our lost one we will." Yoda said as he hurried to the exit with two larger Masters practically running to keep up with him. -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear.

	As their craft entered the planets atmosphere they could feel Obi-wan’s presence strongly they honed in to his signature like a homing beacon. Landing in the rather large section of land cradled in the mountain, they could sense fear and sorrow coming from the boy. As they flew across the paddock, they could feel that he was the only human life form for hundreds of klms. It was dark, but they wanted to find the boy as quickly as possible, they sensed he was afraid and alone, they couldn’t imagine how he had survived for five years by himself. The three Masters headed in the direction they knew the boy was. They had packed blankets, food, water and medical supplies for the trek across the paddock. They arrived at the pond, Obi-wans presence was very strong, but they knew he was hiding. Mace set up camp near the pond while Yoda sat on a rock and meditated. Qui-Gon gathered some wood for a fire. From his cave high up in the mountain Obi watched the three men, he wished they would go away, but at the same time he wanted them to stay. He was lonely and frightened. He watched for a long time, he could hear them talking, the sound of their voices soothed him and not before long he was asleep. Master Yoda opened his eyes and spoke. “Asleep he is. “Wait till daylight to approach him we will” “Keep watch over him we will” They sat by the fire trying to figure out what had happened to him, how had he survived. “Answers are here to find ” Yoda motioned with his stick pointing towards the the rocks at the other side of the pond. “Guiding me there the force is.” Qui-Gon rose taking a glow rod, he came back several minutes later. Holding a journal, one that a pilot would have. “What did you find Qui?" Mace asked. Qui-Gon sat down by the fire and said. “There are bones in the cave by the size, and shape it appears to have been a Wookie. This Journal was laying near the bones." He opened it, all three could speak and read the language of the Wookie Qui started to read some of the first entries. “Our ship crashed here, others all dead. I killed the Slaver pilot before he killed me. Met a young child today, the boy gave me food and water he saved me, cleaned my injuries, he is alone and very scared. Someone put a force inhibitor collar around his neck, he was in pain, I gained his confidence and removed the collar. I smashed it into little pieces with a rock and threw it away. Once the collar was off he remembered that someone named Xanatos threw him into the river I could not speak to him because my vocal chords were damaged. But we communicated with our own home made sign language. Most of the time he would tell me of his life such as it was. I am writing all this down just in case I don’t make it, I have been teaching him to fend for himself. I am preparing him to leave here to get help, I will make sure he takes this journal with him. He told me that when he was thrown in the river he fell down a hole that wound through the mountain for a long way and came out here into this pond. I am not sure how long he was here alone, he was very scared when we met. He only looked about four or five years old”. Qui-Gon stopped reading. He flicked through a few pages most of these entries were just of every day things. They would read them later. Then Qui chuckled. “Krag tried to teach Obi how to hunt, but the boy would not let him kill anything." Yoda cackled softly "Good heart has this boy. No darkness resides in him” “Krag writes that most of the winter months they spent in the cave. Obi didn’t have much clothing, so Krag kept him warm by wrapping his hairy arms around the boy. He made him some clothes out of banana leaves. He shredded the leaves and plaited them together to make a tunic for the boy. They salvaged some containers and a few tools from the ship, but most of the ship had burnt out. There were no clothes for the boy he writes” Qui-Gon said. “There are many entries in the journal of their life together.” he added “He taught Obi how to move rocks and move things with the force. Krag said that after a few lessons Obi would just point at the fruit and it would fall off the trees.” The three Masters chuckled at this entry in the journal. Flipping further through the journal he came to shaky writing. “I have been sick for some time now I do not think I will last long Obi doesn’t know how sick I am.” “Four years I calculate we have been here together, I wish I could see this fine boy saved. He doesn’t deserve this fate. My guess is he is about nine now.” I have been teaching him about balance, he can balance upside down on one hand while holding a rock in the other. He can levitate rocks three times as heavy as himself. I have been trying to convince him to climb the mountain and seek out help, not for myself, but I cannot bear to think he will be left alone if I die. I am getting weaker every day On the next few pages the writing was becoming distorted Then on the last page of entries. “Krag wrote: I have been having a dream these last few nights. It is always the same. I see stars shining brightly, I see the boy look to the night sky I see him standing in the company of three beings, all wearing the same Clothes. Two large beings, one dark and one light, and one short, the short one appears the brightest. The child leaves with them. My dream ends then but I wake feeling happy for a moment. I pray to whatever force is out there that my dream will come true. Please someone hear his call, some one find this light in the darkness find him. Save him.” Mace spoke for the first time since Qui had been reading. “Could Krag have been having visions of us coming to rescue Obi-Wan? Was the force letting this man know that all would be well? But he has spent the last year alone. Oh my force poor child.” Qui flipped a couple of pages there were no more entries. The three Masters sat in meditation for the rest of the night, wondering what the child would think about them in the light of day. They wondered what he looked like now, how have the last five years effected him. How will he adjust to Temple life. -----signature----- Padawan to p_stotts Peace over anger - honour over hate - Strength over fear. Links to Stories in my Bio. Obi-Wan forever.
