    The Saga Begins
    ---------------
    Lyrical adaption of 'American Pie' by Don McLean
    Music Corporation of America, Inc./Benny Bird Music (BMI)
    (Administered by Copyright Management, Inc.)
    New lyrics by Al Yankovic
    With Special Thanks to George Lucas

    A long long time ago
    in a galaxy far away
    Naboo was under an attack
    And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn
    Could talk the Federation into
    Maybe cutting them a little slack
    But their response, it didn't thrill us
    They locked the doors and tried to kill us
    We escaped from that gas
    Then met Jar Jar and Boss Nass
    We took a bongo from the scene
    And we went to Theed to see the queen
    We all wound up on Tatooine
    That's where we found this boy...

    Oh my my, this here Anakin guy
    May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
    And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
    Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
    "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

    Did you know this junkyard slave
    Isn't even old enough to shave
    But he can use the Force they say
    Ahh, do you see him hitting on the queen
    Though he's just nine and she's fourteen
    Yeah, he's probably gonna marry her someday
    Well, I know he built C-3PO
    And I've heard how fast his pod can go
    And we were broke, it's true
    So we made a wager or two
    He was a prepubescent flyin' ace
    And the minute Jabba started off that race
    Well, I know who would win first place
    Oh yes, it was our boy

    We started singin'... My my, this here Anakin guy
    May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
    And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
    Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
    "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

    Now we finally got to Coruscant
    The Jedi Council we knew would want
    To see how good the boy could be
    So we took him there and we told the tale
    How his midi-chlorians were off the scale
    And he might fulfill that prophecy
    Oh, the Council was impressed, of course
    Could he bring balance to the Force?
    They interviewed the kid
    Oh, training they forbid
    Because Yoda sensed in him much fear
    And Qui-Gon said, "Now listen here
    Just stick it in your pointy ear
    I still will teach this boy"

    He was singin'... My my, this here Anakin guy
    May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
    And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
    Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
    "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

    We caught a ride back to Naboo
    'Cause Queen Amidala wanted to
    I frankly would've liked to stay
    We all fought in that epic war
    And it wasn't long at all before
    Little Hotshot flew his plane and saved the day
    And in the end some Gungans died
    Some ships blew up and some pilots fried
    A lot of folks were croakin'
    The battle droids were broken
    And the Jedi I admire most
    Met up with Darth Maul and now he's toast
    Well, I'm still here and he's a ghost
    I guess I'll train this boy

    And I was singin'... My my, this here Anakin guy
    May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
    And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
    Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
    "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
    We were singin'... My my, this here Anakin guy
    May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
    And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
    Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

    I'm so incredibly sorry!! You can throw whatever you want at me! I deserve it! *gets down on hands and knees and grovels*

    Thank you for being so loyal and sticking with me despite how horrible I've been.
    BTW - I loved all your songs!;)

    Okay, the moment you've been waiting for: The final post. It's iffy.

    ************************

    ?The smile on your face let?s me know that you need me.
    There?s a truth in your eyes saying you?ll never leave me.
    The touch of your hand says you?ll catch me, wherever I fall.
    You say it best, when you say nothing at all.?

    - Ronan Keating, ?When You Say Nothing At All.?



    Brie wept tears of relief when she saw Qui-Gon drag a very weary Obi-Wan through the door. She knelt down and encompassed Obi-Wan in a hug that only a mother could provide. When she was satisfied that she?d hugged him about as much as she could, she went over him with a fine tooth comb pointing out all his injuries, noting his fatigue and his soaked clothing whilst continuing to plant kisses all over him. Obi-Wan looked at Qui-Gon with pleading eyes and Qui-Gon felt it was his duty to swoop in and save his Padawan. He pulled Obi-Wan away from his mother, gently pushing him towards the bathroom where he helped Obi-Wan get into a nice, very hot shower and ordered him to stay in there until he was wrinkly and out of hot water. His son had protested that that would lave no hot water for Qui-Gon and he would have to wait until it re-heated. Qui-Gon only shrugged and said ?So be it,? before leaving Obi-Wan to his own devices.

    Jinn had then returned to the kitchen where a fussy Brie was preparing hot soup for both of them. She stopped when she felt Qui-Gon?s hands on her shoulders gently steering her towards the table and sitting her down. He had then proceeded to explain what had transpired between himself and Obi-Wan at the Spaceport and Brie again wept with relief once knowing just how close the situation had come in turning against them.
    Obi-Wan had soon come out, clean and fresh in a new set of clothes, spiky hair wet and Padawan braid freshly braided. He still looked weary and depressed but it was nothing that a good night?s sleep and some time couldn?t fix. He hungrily drank down his soup and asked for seconds. Qui-Gon suggested something more substantial if he was that hungry and Brie agreed, getting up to make him a sandwich.

    Before long, they were all sitting down with hot tea, ready to talk about the real issue that had been plaguing them.

    ?I think we have some explaining to do.? Qui-Gon started.
    Obi-Wan nodded, swallowing down his apprehension.
    ?When I was a young Knight, I was sent on a solo mission to Melidia. I met your mother at a function I was obliged to attend.?
    ?Owen?? Brie cleared her throat. It still hurt to talk about him. He should be there. ?Owen was just past one year old at the time.?
    ?Well, we just?clicked I guess. We started talking and found we had a lot in common. Eventually, we fell in love.?
    ?That?s when I was conceived.? Obi-Wan ventured.
    Qui-Gon laughed. ?What do you take me for? No, not then. We had been together for a few days until, well?? He looked at Brie for support. H didn?t think it would e so hard to explain.
    ?One thing led to another and you were conceived.?
    ?By accident.? Qui-Gon was quick to add whilst mentally thanking Brie.
    ?What about Lyton? Owen?s father? Was he still around??
    ?No Ben. I wouldn?t do that. He died when he was hit by a speeder months before. When Owen was about three or four, maybe even five months old. I can?t quite remember.? Brie offered.
    ?So, then what? Lyton was dead, Owen was about one, just over?? Brie nodded. ?And I had just been conceived. How long had you been pregnant before you found out??
    ?About three weeks. I had no reason to suspect.?
    Obi-Wan nodded hi understanding. He looked at Qui-Gon. ?How did you react??
    ?I won?t lie to you Obi-Wan, I was shocked naturally but also apprehensive. You have to understand, I was a young Jedi Knight at the time, just passed the trials and still finding my place in the o

    Awww, that was sweet! I especially liked the piece of wisdom that Obi-Wan gained, that home wasn't where you were, it was who you were with, your family. So true! Great story!

    Yes! Please write a sequel! There are lots of questions to be asked at the Temple! How will his friends respond to the news? Was there any question of changing his name to Jinn? Is Obi-Wan allowed to call him Father, or is it always Master? Please! I need Answers!

    Hi all!

    Thanks so very very much for your sweet replies.
    I would love to write a sequel but at the moment, I don't have the time. My end of year exams are coming up in about 5 weeks and I'm studying my brain out. So, I can't promise anything. If I do decide to write a sequel it won't be for a long time yet. Someone else can if they want.

    Seeya!

    -Padawanmac.
