Whew! all that emotion!

I have a really bad feeling about Ben's blood still being around. It could turn out to be very dangerous if something happens and it gets loose. shock

Padme and Anakin really take it out of each other, don't they? There's still a lot of emotion there under the surface, whether or not their relationship can survive is still up in the air, but there's still a lot going on, that's for sure.

I know, sorry. I've been emotion charged with this fic, when I'm usually more about action and emotion. Believe me there will be more action though. Yes, Ben's blood does have a sense of overhanging about it.

“Intrusting your care to Master Obi-Wan, I am,” Yoda said as he hobbled towards his newest
apprentice.

Ben knelt before him, feeling an unexpected weariness flush over him like a sudden heat wave. “I
don't need looking after,” he reminded softly. He'd been alone for so long, there was no one he
needed, only the Force.

Resting a three-clawed hand on his shoulder, Master Yoda humphed indignantly. “Fool me you
cannot. The healers spoke with I have. Know what this disease does to you, I do. Dangerous to
send you it is, but know I do the importance.”

It took Ben a moment to decipher the aged Jedi's backward speech. When he did his jaw dropped
in surprise. “How? I destroyed all the blood they took from me.”

“Wanted an analysis of my own, I did” Yoda elucidated. “Destroys the Force, this illness does,
destroys life.”

“I know, that was the requisite of being able to come back through time. I came here only to do
what was necessary. I must be sacrificed for what is necessary,” Ben whispered. “Someone has to
die for balance, Master Yoda. The Force chose me this time, instead of my grandfather.”

An amused expression lined Master Yoda's heavily wrinkled face. “Decide for the Force do you?
What know you of its will? Pride, the trappings of youth, it is.” Ben caught the gimmerstick before
it could be used to knock the sense into him. “Humility you must learn.”

Ben had quickly learned not to argue with Master Yoda, but he felt he needed to defend himself.
“I have done everything I felt best. And everything that I knew to be right even when I did not wish
it to be,” he explained tightly. He turned oceanic eyes, pained as though still a child, to his mentor.
“How can you chastise me for that?”

"Difficult has your path been and lonely, alone you are not now,” Yoda reminded in a gentle mew.

As truthful as Yoda's words were, Ben still felt wronged by them. “This isn't my time, Master. I
don't belong here.”

“Long for the peace of the Force, do you?” Yoda asked, though it bordered on a statement.

Ben frowned, creasing the skin between his ruddy brows. “What I long for cannot be. What I've
set in motion, if it is to play out as we hope, the life I knew, the people I loved, will forever be
changed. Their lives eternally rippled and I wasted away to the Force. Already that has happened.
My father and aunt were never to be raised together, yet already their bond is growing.”

“Things change they do. In motion is the future. In motion is your past.” Yoda rested his chin
against the prong of his gimmerstick. Large brown, sleep-heavy eyes, watched him. "Frightens you
this change does. Cover for it you cannot."

It was as though Master Yoda's words lifted the floodgates and everything inside him he'd kept
locked away under duty and necessity came washing over him. He caught his breath at the stark
chill of it and shivered. Since arriving in this time, he'd protected himself in a confidence that had
bordered and then crossed the lines of arrogance. Obi-Wan had called him on it after the fight with
Anakin and now Master Yoda picked at the recent exposed wound from the lance of truth.

But as he met Master Yoda's eyes, he only saw the quiet understanding of his father in that heavy
gaze. Perhaps his Luke would not be totally changed if he could still capture the silent sympathy
of his mentor's eyes.

“I don't know what I'm doing,” he admitted. “I want to help rebuild the Jedi, but by doing so I might
end my own life. I've entered an existence I know only by heresy, with a grandfather I know still
carries good in him, but I don't know how to bring out that light. I'm tired and sick and out of place,
waiting for my enemy to come out of the shadows. Because the Yuuzhan Vong are here, now,
studying their prey, and I can feel the emptiness inside of the Force that they represent. Their
proximity pulls at the disease inside of me.”

“Divided your attention is. One foe you must face before turn to defend against another.” The
counsel of his newest Master was hard to ignore. He did have to forget the Yuuzhan Vong now if
he were to help save his grandfather and rebuild the Jedi. He wondered if he could, considering that
he'd spent his entire life being aware of that cataclysmic void. “Aware you must be, my young
Padawan. Speak to Obi-Wan of your sickness you will. Trust this arrogance is gone now.”

Bowing his head in supplication, Ben agreed, “I will keep him aware of my condition.”

“Then be prepared you must be,” Yoda ordered. “Rest you need, strength to rebuild.”

Cool...Ben finally opened up to someone. Now he knows he's not alone anymore. I hope whatever happens in the way of his force born mission that he doesn't just disappear. I mean, I hope Luke and Mara still meet and marry so Ben will be born.

Ben's illness somehow reminds me of the JLA-comics, where Darksied searches for the ani-life elanquation.

Cool fic, reminds me a bit of "Back to the Future".

Back to the Future was kind of an inspiration for this. It was a mixture of seeing the Episode III trailer and wanting to play with the idea of making your own past and your own future.
