RE: The Lost Children (updated 11/12)
I have three reasons why you should post. 1- Your loyal readers, some for more than year crave it. Next two more personal. 2- I am getting put under to have my wisdom teeth pulled and I would appreciate a post to read during my recovery. 3- my birthday is this tuesday and it would be an excellent present.

I'll take 'When Is This Going To Be Updated For The Love of Cheese' for 2000, Trebek.
Jeopardy always reminds me of the Celebrity Jeopardy on SNL. Hilarious.

Celebrity Jeopardy is great. Sean Connery is hysterical. My all time favorite would have to be "Here is your audio daily clue ASIA!!!"

Knight Obi Wan
I know this is short, and for that, I apologize, but I haven't worked actively on this story for quite some time. Going to take a bit to get back into it. Enjoy though.
**************
“We’re here,” Ilimin announced softly at the top of the landing. He cast a glance back at the boy lying on the landing below. He’d made it twenty levels before having to crawl. Frankly, the aide was astonished he’d made it at all. He’d found the boy sprawled out in the arid dungeon cell Palpatine had banished him to weeks ago. Ilimin had seen bigger and stronger men go mad from being in that room, with its staggering patterns of heat and cold, alternating darkness and intense light…and the ungodly sounds that echoed from the walls and into your mind.
Obi-Wan forced himself to raise his head to meet the eyes of the man who’d removed him from his cell. This was only the second time the man had spoken, his first statement having been “Follow me.”
“Are you coming?”
“If you…..give me…..just….a minute.” Obi-Wan gasped, closing his eyes. Force, not so long ago, he could have sprinted the thirty level climb several times before he became winded. He did not know how long he’d been kept in that cell, but his energy reserves were gone.
The little man fidgeted impatiently and Obi-Wan grit his teeth for another level. Reality and his cramping legs and arms told him he would not make it much longer, but his stubborn mind would not listen. The padawan found himself staring at the black booted feet of his escort.
“Stand up. We’re here.”
It wouldn’t kill him to offer a hand.
Obi-Wan growled to himself. He grasped at the railing to hoist himself up while the man turned to key a code into the lock. Obi-Wan glanced up, hoping to see the sequence, but the world suddenly spun and the world exploded into stars. Ilimin barely turned in time. The boy wavered and began to topple down the stairs. He jerked out and grabbed the only handhold on the boy…the waistband of his shorts, and with more force than he intended, flung the boy forward through the door. Obi-Wan hit the wall with a thud and slid down to the floor.
“What in blazes did you think you were doing?!” Obi-Wan thought that perhaps any minute, all three of the man would begin hopping back and forth with anger. “Do you have any idea how much trouble I’d be in if you were killed?!”
“I’m sorry,” Obi-Wan blinked his eyes, hoping the world would begin to make sense again, “I didn’t try to fall down the stairs.
Ilimin sighed, staring at the boy. What was he doing? He was supposed to be a senatorial aide, not a jailer…and not a kidnapper. Sorting, stacking, and filing had become lying, forging, and stealing. He offered the boy a hand and was frankly surprised when it was accepted. The boy wavered on his feet, but quickly steadied himself.
“Not much further to go,” he told him softly.
Obi-Wan blinked at the gentleness in the other man’s voice. They began again, but at a slower pace. Slowly, the world began to make sense again and the Jedi studied the other man. He walked with his head down and his shoulders stooped. A gentle probe found a cloud of self-loathing and pity thick around him.
There is an opening to be found in every impossible situation, my Padawan. You must simply be able to find it and make it your doorway.
Obi-Wan wondered if perhaps this man was the doorway his Master had referred to.
“Who is he?”
The other man looked around sharply, surprised at the first hint of conversation.
“Who is who?” He asked sharply, anxiety leaping to the foreground of the man’s emotions.
“Who is it that you work for? Who is holding me here?”
The neat little man paused for a moment, studying the boy’s face, “The Master.” He finally said simply, “Your Master if he has his way. If not, your murderer. You might do well to realize that now. You haven’t much time.”
