    I take no pleasure in making people suffer, I can only post if the author allows me to.

    But be assured I have on good authority that the next part is soon and the end is near.....

    Please keep up the feedback! Cassia Appreciates it. (though she is unable to post that personally).

    I must remind everyone that I am not the author and I am only posting it for her.(Cassia)

    Thanks.

    Kim B :)

    -Runaway Train-



    PART NINE:


    ----
    Runaway train never coming back
    Runaway train tearing up the track
    Runaway train burning in my faith
    Runaway but it always seems the same...
    ----


    Obi-Wan was dreaming again, but it was a bad dream this time. He could
    see
    Yanni and Qui-Gon, they were in trouble, they were about to be
    killed...

    He tried desperately to pull back. He couldn't watch that again! Oh
    Force
    why couldn't he just die?! Why did he have to see this again?!

    Yet the scene was still there, seeming to unfold in slow motion before
    his
    eyes. His heart burned, but it was always the same, these dreams... he
    couldn't stop them...

    A hot surge suddenly welled up inside of the apprentice. He couldn't
    stand
    it! He couldn't! No matter if this was a dream, he didn't have to
    live it
    again! Maybe he couldn't change what had happened, but at least in his
    dream he was free to act. It would hurt, but could it hurt more than
    watching it happen again?

    Plunging out of his dark void, Obi-Wan waded through the ocean of pain
    that
    assaulted him, struggling to take control of the nightmare unfolding
    before
    him.

    ~*~

    Suddenly, Obi-Wan pulled out of Higler's startled grip and pushed
    Qui-Gon
    aside. The blaster bolt passed harmlessly overhead.

    Qui-Gon, surprised, but focused, used the force to rip the blaster out
    of
    the third man's hand.

    Higler slashed at Obi-Wan with his shiv but the apprentice turned,
    caught
    his arm and twisted it behind his back.

    By now, security was on the scene and the three fugitives were quickly
    arrested and incarcerated.

    Yanni stirred and began to wake with a moan, rubbing her sore neck.

    Qui-Gon turned to Obi-Wan who was breathing hard and looking around as
    if he
    were seeing the world for the very first time.

    "Obi-Wan?" he said softly, reaching out his hand.

    Obi-Wan took the hand and squeezed tightly, as if assuring himself that
    Qui-Gon really was there.

    The Jedi Master was rewarded with the biggest smile he had ever seen
    lighting up Obi-Wan's face.

    "Master!" Obi-Wan said, unbelievable joy welling up in his heart as he
    realized that this was no dream he was in now. Somehow, wonderfully,
    it was
    reality!

    Yanni, forgetting her sore throat in the joy of hearing Obi-Wan sound
    like
    himself, jumped out of the chair and hugged him.

    Obi-Wan hugged her back, then he hugged Qui-Gon who was a little
    surprised,
    but very pleased.

    People were staring. Let them stare. Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Yanni were
    much
    too happy to care.

    Suddenly they all started talking at once, stopped and smiled
    sheepishly.
    When they finally got matters all sorted out as to what was, and wasn't
    reality, Yanni glanced down at her chrono.

    "Oh dear, now I've done it!" she said. "I've missed my shuttle!"

    The Jedi smiled at one another.

    "Well then," Qui-Gon said. "We'll just have to treat you to lunch
    while you
    wait for the next shuttle."

    "Yes," Obi-Wan grinned. "And it *won't* be stale water and tubers..."

    They all laughed.



    THE END.

    Awesome story, Cassia! :) I thought the ending was a little abrupt, but I guess it's cuz I'm used to huge epics... isn't there a pirate one coming, btw? :D Again, great job! As always, I look forward to reading more of your fics. :)

    I am probably going to post more of Cassia's story in near future but if you want to find many of Cassia's work you can find it either here in JC(which can be difficult)or at...

    http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Picture/6672/early_author.html
    Under Author name Cassia and

    http://houshin.net/jalibrary/journals/journals.html
    Also under the authors name Cassia.

    Both sites has couple of stories that are not in the other (of Cassia's work) so it pays to checkoutboth sites.

    Kim B :)

    Oh, hey, I have never heard the song 'Runaway Train' before. Who is it by? I found this song that kind of fits in a couple places for this story. Tell me what you think. (I don't know who should be singing it, maybe Qui-Gon and Yanni...)

    Long time since I've seen your smile
    But when I close my eyes I remember
    You were no more then a child
    But then so was I
    Young and tender

    Life goes on, I guess it always will
    But for right now, time stands still

    Stay for a while
    Well it's good to see your smile
    And I love your company
    Stay for a while
    And remember the days gone by
    For a moment it can seem
    Just the way it used to be.

    Great story, but the way!!

    I think its by red hot chili peppers.

    I liked the story alot, although I agree it ended a bit fast. I would have liked to have a bit more reunion, more time spent on Obi figuring out that it wasn't all a dream.

    Overall though, great story.
