Two Obi-Wans in one spacetime. Love it! I wonder how long Yoda will be able to keep Obi-Wan from meeting himself and Anakin....
Thanks for the PM!

Yhis so so great- I can't wait for more.
We survived the fires in one piece- they missed the house by 5 miles or more. Have you or anyone else heard from Miana Kenobi??

Sorry for not replying earlier! I'm still reading, and still loving the fic.
Love the fight with Dooku; it was really intersting to have younger Obi there too. Can't wait to see people besides Yoda (like Anakin) talking to younger Obi and knowing who he is. Oh how I love time travel fics. Great job so far!

I love time travel fics - so much opportunity in them.
Now I really want Obi-Wan to meet himself. And everyone else, really...
I can't wait for more...

Bant had seen many things in her time as a healer at the Jedi Temple. She’d had the privilege to see life begin when one of the Jedi Knights in residence had given birth to twin girls, and she’d seen life end too many times when returning field Knights were too injured for even the Force to heal. She’d seen horrendous injuries, and she’d seen some pretty strange cases as well. She, however, had not expected to see such an interesting case during her morning lift ride to the healing center.
Her day had begun as usual, with her alarm clock notifying her it was time to get up despite her strenuous protestations. She’d managed to crawl out of her nice warm water bed and had barely the time to fix herself a cup of caf. After that, she’d needed only to clean up and don her healer’s robes and she was ready to face another day in the Jedi infirmary. Bant had left her apartment and had waited somewhat less than patiently for a lift that would take her to the healing center.
When the lift had finally arrived, she’d made her way toward the back of the lift, as the healing center was one of the lower levels in the right Jedi Temple spire. Unlike the lifts at the Senate complex, the lifts in the Temple worked in a circular fashion, with several lifts working in tandem to take riders up the central spire and then down the outside spires. Bant would have to ride all the way to the top of the central spire before the lift would begin to make its way down the right temple spire. /Typical Jedi/ Bant thought somewhat grumpily /Instead of making things nice and simple, it’s more important for there to be a “cycle” and “symbolism” in everything./
Receiving a censorious look from one of the Jedi Masters already present in the lift, Bant quickly worked to school her thoughts and strengthen her shields. With her attention so focused on the Force and strengthening her mental shields, Bant quickly noticed the familiar Force presence that was just about to enter the lift. Feeling her mood brightening, Bant waited for her best friend and crèche mate, Obi-Wan Kenobi, to enter the lift. She hadn’t seen as much of him lately as she would have liked, as Obi-Wan and his apprentice were much in demand in the tumultuous times the Republic now faced.
As the lift doors slid open, she found her attention caught first by the diminutive presence waiting immediately in front of the doors. Master Yoda may have been small in physical presence, but his Force presence was so strong it was difficult for even the most seasoned Jedi to not lean just a bit nearer toward such a source of pure light. Bant, however, almost immediately pulled her attention away from the Jedi Councilor looking for her friend. The small figure beside Master Yoda was not what she was expecting.
Despite her surprise, the brief glimpse of his face within the cloak as the boy entered the lift was enough to tell her that this was, indeed, Obi-Wan Kenobi. /Oh, Obi-Wan, what have you got yourself into this time/ she wondered as she studied the figure beside Master Yoda. After his many adventures with his former Master, Qui-Gon Jinn, Bant was not shocked to think that her friend has somehow managed to find himself victim of some sort of age-reversal mechanism.
The Jedi Master who had given her such a dirty look before was between her and the new arrivals, otherwise she would have asked the Knight herself what exactly he’d managed to fall foul of this time. \I guess I’ll find out soon enough when we get to the healing center/ the Mon Calamari healer thought. Assuming that Obi-Wan was headed in for a medical evaluation, Bant was surprised when Master Yoda and her friend instead exited at the top of the central spire on the Council level. \I guess I’ll have to wait and ask later\ she thought as she tried to sneak one last peek at her friend before the doors slid close.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Obi-Wan found himself quickly becoming bored. Although he had attended many Council sessions with his Master, he’d rarely been left to sit by himself out in the hallway. Again, the apprentice found himself wondering where his Master was, and why he hadn’t been taken to him immediately. /Maybe Qui-Gon is on some kind of secret mission/ he wondered. It was uncommon for the Master-Padawan team to be split up, but it had happened a few times earlier in Obi-Wan’s apprenticeship. The past two years, however, Obi-Wan had constantly been at Master Jinn’s side.
Tired of sitting on the bench, Obi-Wan stood up and made his way toward the plexi-glass window that separated the Council anteroom from the teaming flow of air-traffic just outside. Although the apprentice had been born on a planet other than Coruscant, he had no memories of anything other than this giant world-wide city. It was with surprise, then, that Obi-Wan realized that the traffic patterns that were so familiar to him were somehow different and strange. It was almost as if a new level of frenzy had entered into the equation, and the air car drivers seemed to become angrier quicker and less likely to make allowances. Even as he watched, the apprentice saw two near collisions and one minor accident. While traffic on Coruscant was always bad, he’d never seen such aggression and rage before.
Deeply bothered by yet another indication that something was very wrong, Obi-Wan turned away from the window and instead focused his attention on the Council room doors. These at least were familiar and unchanged. It was with some level of comfort that he realized these doors had stood for hundreds of years, and would most likely stand for hundreds more. /Something may have changed here, but at least the Temple itself will always remain/.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Entering the healing center, Bant found herself immediately swept up in a case Master Healer Ravenna was working on. The Jedi teams sent to Geonosis were returning and several of the Knights, Masters and Padawans had been severely injured. Ravenna and Bant had developed a nearly symbiotic working style during the younger Jedi’s apprenticeship and the two still worked together frequently. With her mind fully caught up in trying to save the life of a Padawan who couldn’t have been much past his 18th year, Bant quickly forgot the mystery that had so grabbed her attention on the lift this morning.
It was only much later, after assisting her former Master with three separate surgeries that had taken nearly the entire day that Bant again began to wonder what exactly had happened to her friend. Although exhausted, she decided to pay a quick visit to Obi-Wan before she retired back to her apartment for a night’s rest. Quickly pulling up his record, Bant was surprised to see that Obi-Wan and Anakin had been placed in a room together. /I didn’t see Anakin with Obi-Wan. Hopefully he wasn’t de-aged as much as his Master was or I guess he could have been carried in Master Yoda’s pocket/. Somewhat punch drunk from exhaustion, Bant found herself giggling at the thought of just what – components- Anakin might have been reduced to had he and Obi-Wan been de-aged the same amount of time.
Still laughing slightly in the strange gurgling way of her species, Bant made her way to the rooms that had been designated for her friend and his apprentice.

Quigonjecca Glad you are enjoying it so far
ratna It's not Obi-Wan meeting Obi-Wan he needs to worry about right now... Bant's definitely about to stir up some trouble.
Kitara Whew, sounds like still too close of a call! I'm glad you are okay. Did anyone hear from her? *crosses fingers*
Amrita_Glittersong Thanks! Expect to see quite a few people interacting with young Obi... and perhaps taking him on as a leaner?
___Sithspawn___ They're my favorite kind of fic too. I love reading them and I love writing them!
Sguid Just because I'd have to kill you if I told you what EXACTLY I do for a living doesn't necessarily mean I have that kind of power

Oh dear, Bant will have a freakout. Let's just hope she can keep a secret! Or else the older Obi-wan will hear about it...

Oh, Sithspawn, thats a interesting idea, I didn't even think about what would happen if older Obi-wan found out.
Wow, the possibilites are open. I wonder if older Obi-wan will freak out just as much ahah, maybe council his younger self?
Aha, I can't to see what happens! Great chapter! Sorry for not reviewing, but I get caught up with which stories I've reviewed for here or at fanfiction.net. I think I've read this at both places aha. But I really enjoy it.

I was going to try to update this week, but my Microsoft programs aren't working on this computer today. (sigh). So, I guess it'll be next week. Thanks for sticking around.

Yoda was used to garnering exasperated looks from his fellow Council members. He was even used to the occasional expressions of complete confusion. The looks he was getting now, however, were something to be reveled in. It wasn’t often that one could manage to shock the entire Jedi Council into complete and utter silence. In fact, Master Windu had even had his mouth hanging open for a few seconds. It was definitely a new record for Master Yoda.
“You can’t be serious,” Mace Windu finally recovered. “We have to assume that the boy is a clone, especially with all that has been revealed on Kamino.”
“A clone he is not,” Yoda stated calmly as he leaned forward to rest his chin on his gimmer stick. “Obi-Wan Kenobi, he is. One of us, he is. A Master he needs, and suggested a good one I have.”
“Perhaps we should allow for further testing before we even discuss potential Masters,” Adi Gallia interjected. The beautiful Master was still recovering from wounds she had received on Geonosis, but felt well enough to attend the Council session.
“Further testing is not needed,” Yoda argued. “Scanned him, I have. Doubt me, do you?”
“Even if the boy is Obi-Wan Kenobi, do you really think it wise to assign him a new Master so quickly? He might need more time to adjust,” Master Windu suggested.
“And of all the potential Masters, why would you suggest…” Adi began before Yoda interrupted.
“Spoken to me the Force has,” Master Yoda said in a tone of a voice the other Councilors had come to accept as the final word on any subject. “Here for a purpose is young Obi-Wan. Assigned as a Padawan to Anakin Skywalker he will be.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the door to the room assigned to Obi-Wan Kenobi hissed open, Bant found herself hesitating slightly. While she was a fully trained healer, she still found it difficult to act as a health professional to her childhood friends – especially when it was much more fun to tease them. Suppressing the urge to laugh again, the Mon Calamarian entered the slightly darkened room. Two medical beds were set up, though both were partially surrounded by curtains, blocking her immediate view of the patients.
Although the room was set-up for two, the Temple healing center was rarely so full as to need all available beds. Instead, the rooms were usually individually assigned, unless a Master/Padawan team had specifically asked to be kept together.
Approaching the second bed which her friend usually preferred, Bant was disappointed to see that Obi-Wan had obviously returned to his normal age. The Jedi Knight, while still relatively young compared to other Jedi, was showing the signs of his difficult life, with grey hair starting to shine through the ginger brown that had so intrigued her as a youngling.
“Come to stare, or are you at least going to say hello,” a slightly husky voice asked dryly as the ginger lashes flickered open to reveal the blue green eyes of her oldest friend.
“Can’t I do both?” Bant inquired as she moved forward to offer a webbed hand to Obi-Wan.
“Only if you’ve come to spring me,” Obi-Wan rejoined, as he clasped her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. “If I have one more healer poking or prodding at me, I might not be able to resist the urge to draw my ‘saber.”
“And that would be why I took the liberty of confiscating it, Master,” came a voice from the first bed.
“And here I thought you were going to attempt to attack using both lightsabers again,” Obi-Wan answered, before adding soto voice “and get your butt kicked yet again.”
Pulling back the curtain on the first bed, Bant could now see both Obi-Wan and Anakin fully. Both Jedi had bacta infusions attached to them, and she could see where each had suffered some serious wounds.
“So what exactly happened to you this time?” the healer asked with the voice of one who had seen her friend come out of situations she would have otherwise deemed unbelievable.
Sharing a look that she couldn’t quite interpret, Anakin obviously deferred the answer to his Master. “Geonosis,” Obi-Wan answered succinctly.
“I can see where that would have caused your burns,” Bant stated, “but how exactly did you manage to get yourself de-aged? And where were you for it?” she continued as she addressed the second question to Anakin.
“De-aged?” Obi-Wan questioned. “Anakin and I were involved in the battle on Geonosis. We were injured during the hand to hand combat, and then later during a ‘saber duel.”
“But when you came back here, Master Yoda was leading you?” Bant asked, her higher voice betraying her confusion. “It was definitely you, and you were definitely young.”
“I haven’t seen Master Yoda since we left the planet, have you?” Obi-Wan asked his Padawan.
“No Master,” the younger man replied as he began to twist the long, thin braid that marked his status as a Padawan. “The last time I saw him, he was getting on an airship that was going to attempt to purse Dooku.”
“I think perhaps, you were confused,” Obi-Wan stated as he turned his attention back to his friend with a slightly confused smile.
“Confused, she was not,” a voice declared from the doorway. All three of the current occupants of the room swiveled their heads in a near tandom double-take to the unexpected view of Master Yoda perched on the shoulders of a much younger Obi-Wan Kenobi.
