If Only Tears Could Bring You Back- Obi-Wan angst
|
Ok, this is a new song-fic I'm working on. It's Obi/Ami, in that it's Obi-Wan's reaction immediately after Amidala's death. Definitely drama, and possibly AU?
Also, in this, both Luke and Leia are with Amidala at the time of her death. Yes, I know Luke doesn't remember her, but that does not mean that he wasn't with her for a while. Children develop at different rates, and some have memories before others do. My earliest memory I can actually date was January 28, 1986, the day Challenger blew up. I was 4 1/2 years old at the time. My mom on the other hand, has memories of being in a foster home, which happened when she was 2 1/2. So, let's just say Leia's memories pre-date Luke's, ok?
Anyway, enough rambling. On with the show. 
~*~Bria
P.S. While not a big 'love-triangle' theory follower, I do see Amidala and Obi-Wan having a deep friendship, especially after Anakin's fall.

If Only Tears Could Bring You Back
By Bria
Obi-Wan headed towards Amidala's room. Something was wrong, it had to be. She had always been the first to arise, needing to feed the twins early each morning. He knocked on the door, but when there was no reply, he pushed the door open and rushed inside.
How will I start
Tomorrow without you here
Who's heart will guide me
When all the answers disappear
Obi-Wan knew what had happened the moment he laid eyes on her. All the heartache, the depression, it had all taken it's toll on the still young woman. She was gone. "NO!!!!! Ami!!!!!!!!!!!" Obi-Wan rushed to her side.
Is it too late
Are you too far gone to stay
This one's forever
Should never have to go away
"Please Ami, please," Obi-Wan pleaded, checking her pulse, hoping against hope that he could save her. But alas, she'd already flown. Why hadn't he felt Amidala's death? It didn't make sense. They had such an friendship, especially after Anakin had turned. He glanced over at the crib, where Luke and Leia slept peacefully, unaware that they were now orphans, without either a father or a mother. "I failed you Ami..."

Ok, let's see... I'm going to try this one again. When I put it up back in January, only one person seemed interested. However, I just completed a short Ani/Ami song fic (I Knew I Loved You), and several ppl want me to write more. So I'll give it another try.
Yes, this *is* technically Ami/Obi, but Ami is already dead it in. It's mostly about the friend ship between the two. Allow me to explain my views:
CALM DOWN, I am *NOT* a love-triangle writer. However I *do* think that since Anakin is Obi-Wan's padawan, and Amidala marrys Anakin, they will see a lot of each other. A friendship is bound to form. I believe that Obi-Wan might be slightly attracted to Amidala in the next episode, but more like Luke and Leia in the OT (before they found out they were related). Sure, Luke was interested in her, but it was more of a star struck admirer way. Even if he hadn't been Leia's sister, he never would have had a chance with Leia. They were friends, *close* friends, but nothing more than that. Such will it be between Obi-Wan and Amidala in the prequels, IMHO. Remember, I don't read spoilers, so I'm not sure (and please don't tell me!). I see Obi-Wan and Amdiala having a brother/sister type relationship, and that is what would be portrayed in this song-fic.
If anyone is still here, you'll probably want to read my little note on Luke and Leia in the inital post.
Ok, time for the show. I have edited it and added to it, so I'll repost the beginning.

P.S. Oh, the song "If Only Tears Could Bring You Back" is performed by Midnight Sons and can be found on the Pokemon: The First Movie soundtrack. Yes, I like anime, and since the song isn't about losing a lover, it made me think Ami/Obi.

If Only Tears Could Bring You Back by Bria
Obi-Wan Kenobi awake with a start, his heart beating an urgant tattoo. He raced towards Amidala's room. Something was wrong, he could feel it. She had always been the first to arise, needing to feed the twins early each morning. He knocked on the door, but when there was no reply, he pushed the door open and rushed inside.
How will I start
Tomorrow without you here
Who's heart will guide me
When all the answers disappear
Obi-Wan knew what had happened the moment he laid eyes on her. All the heartache, the depression, it had all taken it's toll on the still young woman. Amidala's arms were outstreched, and it looked as if she was reaching for someone. Her eyes were closed, and her skin was deathly pale. She was gone. "NO!!!!! Ami!!!!!!!!!!!" Obi-Wan rushed to her side and pulled her into his arms.
Is it too late

"Please Ami, please," Obi-Wan pleaded, checking her pulse, hoping against hope that he could save her. But alas, she'd already flown. Why hadn't he *felt* Amidala's death? Only once she was already gone had he felt it through the Force. It didn't make sense. They had such an friendship, especially after Anakin had turned. They were like brother and sister. He glanced over at the crib, where Luke and Leia slept peacefully, unaware that they were now orphans, without either a father or a mother. "I failed you Ami..." he was unable to say any more as the tears started to flow.

I know. Your brother thinks you're crazy, and then you lose the women who is like a sister to you, after loosing your padawan. Poor Obi-Wan. *sniffle*
Yes, there is more. I have the end written, it's the middle that's giving me problems. Hehe. I intend to work on this more tomorrow.
Oh, handmaiden fans, Sabe will be in this. I love her.

*********************************
What will I do
You know I'm only half without you
How will I make it through
"Why Ami, why?" Obi-Wan asked once he got his breath back. "We promised each other we would be there for one another, as well as for the twins. Why’d you leave us Ami?"
Even as Obi-Wan asked these questions, he already knew the answer. Amidala had done her best to get on with her life, but it was evident to all who knew her that she was still deeply in love with Anakin and would always be. She once explained to Obi-Wan that she felt as if her heart had been ripped out of her chest while she was still alive. Obi-Wan had had no reply to that, because as great as his pain was, he could not relate to the lose of a spouse.
After Anakin had turned to the Dark Side, Amidala and Obi-Wan had helped each other deal with the loss of their husband and former Padawan. They would've gone their separate ways, but once Amidala had discovered she was pregnant with twins, Obi-Wan had decided that he would stay with her to protect her and the children. In his new state of mind, the twins could be a tool for him, and the two of them had agreed that was something they could not allow to happen.
