	Title: Of why a Jedi should always look up Author: Amrita Glittersong Characters: Obi, Ani, Mace Genre: Humor Timeframe: Less than a week after Geonosis Summary: Mace thinks he's alone for a stroll through the Room of a Thousand Fountains... Notes: Another silly short story from my short fic collective. Actually inspired by a scene in the manga Chobits, believe it or not... ----------------------------- Of why a Jedi should always look up It was a beautiful day in the Room of a Thousand Fountains. The sun was shining through the glass dome high above, the water in the many pools and streams was bubbling happily along, and the grass was... Green. All in all, it was a beautiful day for a walk. Just like every other day in the Room. But today, Mace Windu was actually taking the time to enjoy it. He had some idle time before the next Council meeting, and was going to make the most of it. Some relaxation in the most peaceful room of the Temple would be good for him, especially with the looming of the recently begun Clone War. Usually, the Room of a Thousand Fountains was crowded, but due to the aforementioned war most of the available Masters, Knights, and Padawans were on assignment and therefore out of the Temple. The Room was as empty as Mace had ever seen it; in fact, he seemed to be alone. Not that he minded. Strolling along, Mace stopped under one of the enormous trees of the Room. Branches hung low, barely a foot over Mace's head, covered in thick foliage to create a canopy so dense he couldn't see into the tree even if he looked straight up. It was very quiet and peaceful in the Room, Mace thought, enjoying the serenity until a very familiar accented voice scared him out of his wits. "Hello!" Mace nearly tumbled to the ground in surprise as, without warning, Obi-Wan was eye-to-eye with him, hanging upside-down out of the branches of the tree. "Force, Obi-Wan!" Mace exclaimed, heart beating rapidly as he recovered from the shock of the Knight's sudden appearance. "You're fortunate I'm not a Sith." Obi-Wan commented, not making any motion to get out of the tree and staring at Mace with all seriousness. "You and your Sith!" Mace said, throwing his hands up. "What would a Sith be doing in a tree!? What are you doing in a tree!?" "Heya." Anakin made his entrance just then, head appearing from the branches right next to his master, again scaring Mace into a near cardiac arrest. "Skywalker!" Mace shouted, a hand over his heart. He looked from Anakin to Obi-Wan, then back again, before just shaking his head in exasperation. "What am I going to do with you two?" "I think you should give us some serious credit for terrifying you not once, but twice." Anakin proposed, seemingly perfectly at ease hanging upside-down. "Anakin, that wasn't the point of this." Obi-Wan chided gently, turning slightly to look at his apprentice, still upside-down as well. "Would you mind telling me what the point was?" Mace asked, raising an eyebrow at them. "And you both look ridiculous, by the way." "We were practicing shielding our presences." Obi-Wan explained, entirely unfazed and sounding as if it was obvious. "Or rather, Anakin was. I've had enough practice." "Yeah, though I think I should get to pass for this." Anakin added, nodding. "Perhaps." Obi-Wan said, before looking at Mace again. "I would have thought you would have sensed us though, Master." "I really didn't think I would be ambushed by the only Knight/Padawan team on planet during a walk through the Room of a Thousand Fountains." Mace said, sighing. "Though apparently, I was incorrect." "Yeah." Anakin said with another nod. "Apparently." "Don't push it, Anakin." Mace warned, not sure whether to be annoyed or amused by the antics of the duo. Anakin shrugged and disappeared back into the tree, reappearing a moment later as he jumped out of it. Obi-Wan did the same, landing lightly on the grass and taking a moment to smooth his disheveled red-blond hair back into place. They both smiled at Mace, pictures of innocence. Mace wasn't fooled for a moment. "Don't look at me like that, either of you. Get out of here. Practice sneaking up on Master Yoda, if you're bored." Mace told them. "That will provide a challenge for you both." "Oh, that sounds like fun." Anakin said, apparently in all seriousness with a twinkle of mischievousness in his eyes. He looked over at Obi-Wan, grabbing a sleeve of his master's tunic and beginning to tug him along. "Let's go, Master! Even you can't sneak up on Master Yoda." "I don't want to. I chose Master Windu on purpose, remember? He doesn't carry a stick." Obi-Wan said, digging his heels into the grass. "And stop pulling on my sleeve." "Oh, come on, don't be a coward." Anakin said, earning a dark look from his master. Mace, who had been mostly forgotten by the two, gave a pointed look at Obi-Wan. "You chose me on purpose? So you did plan to spring out at me for no reason? How did you know I was going to walk under this tree anyway?" He asked, placing his hands on his hips. The Knight looked at him, again displaying a mask of innocence. "Yes, not exactly, and the Force." He answered, voice matching his expression. "Now, if you'll excuse us, we'll be leaving." "Please do." Mace responded, arms crossed now as he carefully kept his amusement off his face. Obi-Wan stopped resisting Anakin's insistent tugging on his tunic sleeve and followed his Padawan towards the exit, Anakin chattering the entire way of his plan of how to hide from Yoda. Mace watched them go, sighing and shaking his head again before resuming his walk through the Room, carefully checking each tree as he went. -----signature----- Deceptions: http://boards.theforce.net/Message.aspx?topic=26426189 My SW videos: http://youtube.com/profile?user=Glittersong "I was trying to sound pompous."

	What a great way to start my weekend! "We were practicing shielding our presences." Obi-Wan explained, entirely unfazed and sounding as if it was obvious. "Or rather, Anakin was. I've had enough practice." "Yeah, though I think I should get to pass for this." Anakin added, nodding. "Perhaps." Obi-Wan said, before looking at Mace again.

	I'd love to see a viggie of the two of them trying to surprise Yoda. Loved Mace's reaction, and the way they ribbed each other. -----signature----- "Who is more foolish?
