Saga THE JEDI AND THE SITH (Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, TPM AU) COMPLETE!

Oh wow! I'm off-line for a few days and so much has happened!

Poor Obi-Wan, getting beat up by his master. Who was his master? Can I beat him up?

Anyway, I like that Obi-Wan is right on with his assessment of Anakin. I wonder if Qui-gon will ever listen to him?

I have company, so this is shorter than I wanted, but I'm really hooked on this. Can't wait for the next one!

Thanks for the PMs

 

Very nice post! And thanks for the PM. Looks like Obi-wan still has a bad feeling about Anakin even when he is a Sith instead of a Jedi. I hope Qui-gon works out his emotions soon so he can have a nice father/son talk with Obi-wan before he (possibly) dies. Here's hoping he'll make it through alive, though!

Keep it up!

 

Obi-Wan is a Sith Knight. The Sith of this universe are not the Sith of the movies, which are called Dark Lords here.

"My" Sith are Force users that are very close to the Dark Side bur never fall in it. They are a warrior order.

 

WA! Thanks for the information

---

"My" Sith are like the ancient Spartans and Romans. They did not believe in pampering their boys. They were harsh and demanding, and hard beatings were normal. It was seen as a way to harden the boys, to make them good warriors, tough and obedient and resourceful.
[hr]

Yup, that's the way I see them, ejem, just take out the part about spartans and romans, I didn't knew that [face_love] WA! You just made me think about the movie 'The Gladiator' I really love that movie! I mean, I bought the dvd and the soundtrack... er, but enough about me [face_tongue]

[hr]
In the beginning I wanted to make it a semi-slash story
[hr]

KYA!! NO!! [face_sad] I don't really see Obi and Qui as that, I see them more as a father and son relationship, nothing more! Thank you for not making this story slash!!

By the way

[hr]
One of the Sith's rules states 'they never submit' I really love
[hr]

I really like, no, no, I LOVE that phrase, it so strong, so, I don't know, I really like, and much more because its of the sith. I really like them, people may think that they are really hard but I really do like them.

[hr]
I was hurt by his words and commented sarcastically, ?A Sith claiming a boy is too emotional to be trained. . .is really amusing.?
[hr]

PLEASE! Kill Qui-Gon Jinn ¬¬ How dare he said that to Obi! [face_beatup] JA! But Obi showed him he is more capable that him!! GO for it Obi!!! [face_dancing]
But, then again [face_worried] Poor Qui, but it's his fault! I mean, first he attack Obi and then he stormed out of the room like a spoiled child!! I can only guees what's gonna happen now [face_confused] Poor Obi, I bet he is feeling awful thanks to his 'daddy' [face_hypnotized] WA! I would love to read Obi-Wans diary of this events, It would be great ([face_batting] any ideas?).
Ok, C'ya!!! waiting for the next post!!!

KEEP IT UP, GIRL!!! It's really fantastic!! [face_love]

 

You are welcome!

Don't worry, I am a HUGE "Gladiator" fan. I've been very active in that fandom during the past 5 years. I have written many stories. I even wrote an Obi-Wan/Maximus crossover. Follow the link in my signature if you are interested in reading it. The story title is SAD WARRIORS.

 

It's interesting that Obi-Wan picked up on Anakin's fear and anger and Qui-Gon did not.

Great update!!!

 

Qui-gon you idiot!!!!!!

 

Great update! Qui-Gon's reactions were childish, but at least he's acknowledged that to himself. Now let's see if he can admit it to Obi-Wan?

 

Hello, here I am with an update after a few days of pause.

This is the next to last update.

I hope you will like it.



Part 8


EXCERPTS FROM THE AUDIO JOURNAL OF QUI-GON JINN, JEDI KNIGHT.


Naboo, Royal Palace, date unknown


The first entry in days- I don?t even know how many. And frankly I don?t care.

What matters, what really matters is I am still here.

I am still alive.

My son saved me.

My voice is shaky and raspy but I feel the need to record the events that led me to lay here on this bed now that they are so fresh in my mind. In fact, strangely enough given the trauma my body received, my memory is sharp and detailed ? especially for a man that has spent several days in coma.

My previous entry was recorded while en route to Naboo, a blessedly trouble-free journey that allowed us to rest and get mentally prepared for the task ahead.

Once on the planet, Queen Amidala ? or better, the young lady we thought was the Queen ? asked Jar-Jar to take us to meet the Gungans? leaders as she wanted to propose the an alliance with the Naboo. Thanks to the Force her plan worked and for the first time in a century, the inhabitants of Naboo would fight together for their world.

The Queen?s plan called for the Gungan troops to engage the droid army in a battle outside Theed.

It was a battle the Gungans could not win, but one that would distract the invading forces and keep them busy as our party would return to Theed to capture Viceroy Gunray, who was staying in the Royal Palace.

It was easy enough to reach the palace, but once arrived there, we found the Dark Lord waiting for us. I had barely the time to instruct Anakin to find a safe place to stay when the dark figure, a red-black tattooed Zabrak, attacked Obi-Wan and I with his double-bladed lightstaff.

The Dark Lord was very agile and powerful, and he parried our blows with ease.

There was little time to think as the fight progressed, but I remember distinctly some of the thoughts running in my mind during those moments.

First of all, there was the worry for my son. Yes, I know, it is not very Jedi-like, but I could not avoid it. I think worrying for your child is natural for parents, no matter who you are or what you do for a living.

Then there was my surprise about how well Obi-Wan and I fought together. There was an amazing coordination between us, as if it was not the first time we found ourselves engaged in a duel like this one.

Finally, there was the abrupt realization I was - I am - really getting old, that my youth is behind me and my strength is beginning to diminish.

The impetus of the battle took us across the hangar and inside the palace basement, as we slashed and bowed, attacked and retracted.

It looked like we were pressing the Dark Lord to back away from us, but in reality, I now realize, he was purposefully leading us to a place of his choice.

The Zabrak took us across the power station and it was while chasing him along a corridor, I in front and Obi-Wan in the rear, that we were separated by laser walls. The lasers were time-regulated and when they finally switched out, I did not wait for Obi-Wan to join me but rushed forward to engage our opponent alone.

I am not sure why I did it, but I have the strong suspicion I did it to protect my son. Which, given how it ended, is such a presumptuous thought.

I heard Obi-Wan scream my name when the red blade caught me in the
midsection, trespassing me.

The pain I felt when the lightsabre burned through my flesh was both physical and emotional.

As I fell to the ground, I knew I would not survive the wound, for I was already too weakened to even try a Force-healing. I could only hope my suffering would be short.

A great sense of regret washed over me. I had not been able to protect my son and I had lost every chance to come to know him.

I thought back to our last conversation on the ship and felt tears rise to my eyes. What a wasted opportunity it had been!

I was barely aware of the fight still going on ne

 

Awe so Obi saved Qui from Maul! yay!! That's awesome. I wonder how they plan to keep a relationship going, but they can do it!

More soon!

 

How sweeet! I love where this is going. More please.

 

That was great! PLEASE update soon!

 

WOW!! This is so neat!! A Father-Son Force bond!!!

 

Aww.. That was so sweet! So Obi-Wan finally accepts the fact that Qui-Gon is his father. I hope that Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon will still be able to go on missions with each others. I can't wait for the next chapter.

 

Awww that was rather sweet.

I love that Obi-Wan wants to have a relationship with Qui-Gon.

Very nice update!!!

 

Aww, very sweet father/son interaction! I am so very glad that Obi-wan was able to save Qui-gon from Maul. I wonder how a Jedi getting saved by a Sith and then forming an unbreakable bond with him will go over with the Council? Not well, I'd say. I hope Anakin will still be trained...perhaps by both Jedi and Sith through Qui-gon and Obi-wan together?

I look forward to your next update!

 

Wonderful update! It was touching to see Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon bonding. I wonder how Anakin's fate will be decided?

 

*delurking*

This is a really good fic! I'm hooked! I like the concept you took with this in Obi-Wan being Qui-Gon's son and the fact that there are two Orders (Jedi, Sith) that tolerate one another and yet are willing to work together when needed.

Keep up the good work! I also read Rewind - Excellent job! I still think that Obi-Wan is the real Chosen One despite what Lucas portrayed. I enjoyed every moment of it!

 

PART 8 continued


All of this happened yesterday afternoon and I did not wake up again until early this morning, feeling much better.

I was not alone in the room, but it was not Obi-Wan.

It was Mace Windu.

?Hello Mace,? I said, choosing to talk with my friend and not with the Councillor.

?Hello Qui-Gon,? he answered in tone, smiling slightly. ?How are you feeling??

?Better than yesterday, but still far from well.?

?I think you are not entitled to complain, considering you should be dead. That boy of yours must have a real talent for healing, Qui-Gon.?

I tilted my head at his words. ?That boy of mine? You know about Obi-Wan??

Mace nodded. ?Yes, Yoda told me. In your report you failed to include the fact your Sith partner for the mission was also your son.?

?I did not consider it to be so important.?

Mace threw me a strange glance and went on. ?We have come here to check on your condition, see the Dark Lord?s remains and to escort the new Supreme Chancellor, Palpatine.?

I nodded. ?Have you talked with Obi-Wan? He killed the Dark Lord.?

?Yes, we did. Yoda says he is a remarkable young man, and I have to agree with him.?

I felt my heart swell with pride, but I did not comment.

?Yoda has also said it was a mistake not to accept the boy in the Temple,? Mace added after a while, looking at me closely.

This time I could not contain my reaction, nor hide the regret in my voice.

?Do you know how the Sith are trained, Mace? Do you know they are submitted to physical punishments? That my son?s back bears the scars of a whipping he received when he was just ten? He is such a bright, gentle-hearted man, Mace, and yet he must cover his more compassionate side because it is not appreciated by his Order. So he hides it behind a shield of cynicism and sarcasm. He would have made a wonderful Jedi...? I closed my eyes and slumped against the pillow, releasing my bitterness into the Force.

?I know, Qui-Gon. Sith Knight Kenobi has allowed us to touch his mind as he showed us everything that happened with the Dark Lord. He has allowed us to see and feel more than we thought ? your bond included. We were impressed by what we saw, so much Yoda and I have decided to make an offer to him.?

My eyes snapped open and I sat up straight, not minding the pain in my chest as my heart started to run. ?What offer??

?We asked him if he would like to be the Sith legate to the Jedi Temple. Given his training and the fact he is married, we could not offer him more...Qui-Gon? Are you all right??

?Married?? I all but gasped.

?Yes, to a commercial ship captain slightly older than him. Don?t tell me you did not know it?? Mace was surprised and a bit uncomfortable.

?I did not...we didn?t have much time to talk about our personal lives.?

?Well, you will now have the time. Our offer will allow the Jedi Order to have a closer contact with the Sith, something that might turn out to be very important if, as we believe, your son killed the apprentice and not the master of the Dark Lords. Knight Kenobi is an open minded young man, and he can teach us how to properly deal with his order. Living in the Temple will also allow him to stay near you, learn some of the Jedi ways and permit his Light side the freedom it has never been granted.?

I swallowed hard, my mind whirling with many thoughts. My son was married. Yoda and Mace knew of our bond and were going to allow us to stay close. More, they had implicitly admitted they wished to retrain Obi-Wan. It was almost too much to be taken in all at once.

?Did he accept?? I finally asked.

Mace smiled. ?Yes, he did.?

?And what about the Sith Council??

?Yoda has already dealt with them. They have accepted, but not for the reasons you would imagine. They do not wish for a closer contact with the Jedi in order to join our forces against the Dark Lords. More simply, they don?t trust Obi-Wan anymore, because of the bond he now shares with you. Had he not been hailed as one of the ?Heroes Of Naboo? by the press, they would have probably dis

 

Oh, this was a wonderful concept! Bravo! Orginal and with an AU that worked wonderfully. I loved the bond between father and son, and am so glad you're continuing! There's so much potential and unanswered questions here! Pleas pm me when you post the sequel

 

You better be writing a sequel!

PLEASE.

 

Sequel! Sequel! Yay! I hope it is posted soon!

 

Please add me to your PM list for the sequel!

I can't wait until it begins!

I like that they're going to be able to get to know one another on a more familial level. I hope Obi-Wan adjust to the Jedi way of life and yet I don't want him to become docile, he needs to keep his edge.

 

I would like to be added to the pm list please.
