Lady of the Knights (Obi-Wan Romance) Updated: 3/3/05.....FINALLY!

Okay guys, I sent some more to Jade_Max via email, and I was going to post, but I left the disk upstairs and I'm too lazy to go get it. Maybe tommorrow. Definatly Friday. Up!

 

Jade, dear? I sent you my last post via-email and I haven't gotten a reply. Have you just been busy, dear? I am going to put up a small post, though, finally. I would just like to thank everyone who has stayed with me and Jade_Max for the awesome beta-reading. I would also like to apologize for waiting for so long. Here it is!



Adrienne grinned in satisfaction at the mess beneath her feet. Little remained of the comlink, its outer casing having been obliterated by the force of her throw, the interior components having disintegrated on impact. All that remained of it was a shower of dust as it gently fell towards the floor. The last physical reminder of her past life.


Adrienne suddenly felt very tired, as if all of her energy had been expended in that one act of independence. She turned on her heel, away from the pile of dust in the corner and headed towards her bed. Before she began her training, she needed sleep and a short nap wouldn?t hurt. She closed her eyes and was asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow


Adrienne woke to the sound of a vaguely familiar voice.


"Wake up, Neana. It's already nine. Wake up!? Neana's my mother's name. Adrienne's eyes fluttered open. There stood her grandmother, Legessa, with a tray of food. The older woman smiled.


?Finally. You don't want to be late for your own wedding, do you? Now, eat up."


Wedding? What wedding?

 

interesting post... i wonder where this is leading...

short sweet, right to the point, and yet makes one wonder where it's gonna head and keeps up interest...

hope you hear from your beta-reader soon

 

Thanks, TJ. I have been wondering myself where Jade_Max is. I hope everything's okay...


Up!

 

i hope so too... it wouldn't be good if something bad happened

 

Great to hear from you again! Jade's having a bit of trouble with her computer... it won't load the boards sometimes... you could contact her by email, I think.

Curious what's going on... a dream, or a crazy grandmother? Hmmm, what will the Jedi think?

 

I did send Jade_Max my post(s) via email. That was last week. I hope that whatever is happening ends soon, for I fear something terrible is happening. Maybe I'm just overreacting. I worry too much.

 

Okay. I don't know where Jade_Max is or what's going on, but I am a very impatient person, so I am just going to send my posts to TJ for beta-reading. I am still very worried about Jade_Max and I hope she comes back. Soon.

 

Okay, I am very sorry about my delayed posts. I am working on the one act for the school and next week is show week and we are still struggling with lines. I just finished with exams and I am going to send the posts to TJ. Thank you to all who check this daily for updates. I love you all!

Well, that was wierd. I hope all is explained later. Neat twist, though.

Ah, jania, from your sig I see you've watched the cast commentary on the LOTR DVD. I still think "tig" game was the best.

 

actually she asked if she could use that quote but yes i did... i want to play tig with dom

did you watch the commentary to the VERY end??? if you did you'd know what i'm talking about

 

Ah yes, tig. That cracked me up! Hey, guess what, y'all? A post! Yup. There was some lovely beta-ing by TJ, and it's a cliff-hanger...EG

Wedding? What wedding?


Adrienne suddenly realized she was "in" her mother's body. She was
living her mother's wedding day. But then where was she? She knew she
was born before the wedding. She was the cause of this wedding. She
pondered on what to do next when she felt immense pain. White-hot
searing, agonizing, excruciating pain. It started at the center of her
being and spread slowly through her limbs and burst through her
fingertips and toes. She opened her mouth to scream, to grab someone's
attention so they could rescue her from this hell. She opened her
mouth, but nothing emerged. She closed it in defeat, then found
herself gasping for air. If someone hadn't heard her by now, they
would.

She began to choke and thoughts flew through her head.


Okay Adrienne, relax. Take a deep breath.


You can't.


Why not?


You can't breathe, remember?


Oh, yeah.


Adrienne's vision grew dark around the edges and she knew death
would be next.

As quickly as the pain began, it ceased and Adrienne's vision
cleared. She found herself staring at her young mother from across the
room. She looked down at herself and tried to see whose body she had
inhabited now, but saw nothing. She was invisible, a mere phantom.
Could they hear her?


Mother? She called, but the troubled brunette woman didn't even
blink. Neana seemed to be deep in thought, in memories. Happy
memories, judging from the smile creeping across her face.


An infant's cry shattered the memories and brought Neana back to
the present. She stood up, but before she could take a step, her door
chimed. Legessa cam bustling thought the room.


"You get the door, darling. I'll take care of Adrienne."


As curious as she was to see her infant self, the person at the
door intrigued Adrienne more. She followed her mother through he
spacious, unlit living room and to the front door. It slid open to
reveal...


Obi-Wan?

 

Okay, where is everyone? Am I being too impatient? It's just I'm so excited about this post that I want everyone and their brother to be able to read it. I think it's excellent. Oh, and one question I know will be plaguing your minds: Is it really Obi-Wan?


Shall I tell you?



No. *EG*

 

it was a lovely post and yet i did not want to be the first to reply because I beta-read it... was hoping others posted first

 

JS- I just found your little story and am very happy that I did. I very much enjoyed your posties and look forward to more.

*off to the warm dryer to await posties*

 

Welcome to the insanity of my story, InTheSockOfTheNight. I am very happy that there is a new reader! There will be a post this week, I promise.

 

Okay ladies and gents, I sent a post to my new/temporary beta-reader TJ and it should be back soon and I'll post on Friday. If anyone wants to know, the last two quotes on my signature are lines from a one-act I saw at the competition last weekend. It was hilarious! Oh, and guess what? We are doing projects on French speaking countries and guess what my country is? Tunisia! Or should I say Tatooine? It's so great. We are going to show clips of Tatooine to show the climate and landscape of Tunisia. It's great!

jainasolo- Love the story! I look forward to more! BTW- where did you see these one-acts at?

 

NyghtFyre: I saw the one-acts in a town called Essixville (I'm not sure of the spelling on that) in a school called Garber.

TJ did an excellent job beta-reading so I think I am going to post it right now. Oh, and everyone go read her story called Shadow Thickening. It's really excellent!

Obi-Wan?

No, it wasn't him, but his father. His father? Although he looked very much
like Obi-wan, there was something different about him. It was something Adrienne just couldn't place. His hair was slightly longer than Obi-Wan's, and a bit darker. He did not sport the beginnings of a beard as his son did, but a smooth shaved jaw. Something still nagged Adrienne. She looked into his eyes. His eyes--that was it. That was the difference.


His eyes were a bit greener than Obi-Wan's, but they did not bear the majesty of a newly appointed Jedi Knight. Instead they bore the heavy burden of a man with a dilemma. They reminded her of the eyes of so many married men who had sought out her services: guilt ridden, but passion-hungry.
They resembled those of a troubled lover...


No.


Oh, no. It was impossible


He couldn't possibly...


Could he?


Could he have been Neana's lover?


The furtive glance Neana threw towards the nursery revealed it all.


Obi-Wan's father was my mother's lover.


There you go! And yes, Obi-Wan's father is supposed to look like Christian from Moulin Rouge. It was really the only way I could think of it getting into my story.

 

While taking a break from homework, I decided to drop in and up my story. Where is everyone?
