The Lost Road JA

Title: The Lost Road
Summary: Obi-Wan is sixteen and learns a truth about his past that he never expected. The mother that gave him up is alive and living on Naboo. She survives an attack on her life and Obi-Wan's master is assigned to protect her. Obi-Wan must decide if he will go with Qui-Gon on the journey.

-----------------------------------------





Obi-Wan Kenobi walked along the corridor outside of the High Council room in the Jedi Temple, as Qui-Gon Jinn addressed the group alone inside. It was something that was rare. Qui-Gon always insisted that his padawan be allowed to know everything. Once and awhile Yoda would insist that it was a private matter and not allow the teen inside.

Usually when that happened, it was never good.

About twenty minutes passed and Qui-Gon Jinn joined his padawan outside in the corridor.

"Well?" Obi-Wan pressed. Qui-Gon was being unusually quiet.

Qui-Gon forced a smile to his face and sighed loudly, "Go pack your things. We have a new mission."

"What is it about Master?" Obi-Wan asked.

"Meet me in the Shuttle bay in 30 minutes," Qui-Gon chimed quickly, cutting Obi-Wan off. "I'll explain there."

"Of course Master." Obi-Wan agreed. The Padawan then left his Master with an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach.

Something was wrong. But he didn't have any idea as to what it could be.
------------------------------------------
"Obi-Wan."

The young Padawan hurried to his Master inside the Bay. Qui-Gon stood before an old Alderaanian class ship. It was the ship that they often used on long missions.

"Well Master?" Obi-Wan grinned. "I can't wait to hear where we are going."

They had been stuck on Coruscant for the last six weeks. It would be so good to get away again from Temple life.

"I've been requested that we go to the Naboo system. Senator Alliah was shot at last night, as she made her way to her suite in the Senate Towers here in the city. She barely escaped with her life. The Queen Jaiana has requested that we return with the Senator for her protection."

"Sounds like any other normal mission." Obi-Wan said. "What I don't understand is the feeling that I'm getting from you Master. It's like you don't want me along on this one."

"That depends on you Obi-Wan." Qui-Gon said softly.

"What do you mean?" Obi-Wan asked.

"You see son," Qui-Gon started uneasily. "Senator Alliah is your mother."

Obi-Wan's world then only began to spin out of control.

Up!

 

---------------------------------
Obi-Wan listened to what Qui-Gon had told him. Had he hered him right? Senator Alliah of Naboo was his mother? He had no parents except for Master Qui-Gon. He was the closest thing to a father that he had. Now Qui-Gon was trying to tell him that he had a mother too.
The woman who gave him up to the Jedi Order at three months old, and never looked back.

Obi-Wan turned his face away from his Master's concerned eyes. He wished he was wearing his hood so he could easily hide his face away. Bright tears stung his blue eyes, and Obi-Wan couldn't find a voice to speak with.

Master Qui-Gon placed a heavy hand on his Padawan's right shoulder and said, "You don't have to go with me to Naboo. Master Yoda says that it's your choice.
Only know that the danger is real and the Senator could use our aide together in this."

Obi-Wan knodded his head and replied, "I will go with you Master. But only to help you on this mission. I don't want to speak with her on any other matters."

"She doesn't know who you are," Qui-Gon said softly. "Your name is not the same and you're no longer that baby boy that was brought to us. The Senator will have no idea that you're her long lost son, and as far as I'm concerned, it will stay that way."

Obi-Wan swollowed hard, "Thank you Master."

"You are most welcome my Padawan," Qui-Gon smiled warmly. "Now let us get ready. We have a long mission ahead of us. The Senator will be here soon for us to escort her home."

"Of course Master." Obi-Wan replied. The Jedi Padawan then hurried off to get his belongings for the journey ahead.

------------------------------

Senator Elenah Alliah lead her group of aides through the bright corridors of the Jedi Temple, until they reached the vast Shipping Center that was located in the middle of the Temple.

"Greetings Master Jinn."

Qui-Gon knodded to the beautiful woman and smiled warmly. She was no longer the sixteen year old girl that had given her Jedi baby to Master Yoda to raise. Elenah was now a woman of at least thirty-two years. She might even have a family of her own. It would do no good to think of her as that frightened girl he once knew briefly. As he saw her eyes though for the first time, it was difficult not to.

"Senator Alliah, it's an honer to serve you."

The woman then noticed a tall young man come into step with Qui-Gon Jinn. He was fresh-faced with deep blue eyes, and was easily one of the most handsome young men that Elenah had ever seen. Yet she never thought him attractive to her. He was young. Likely still a teenager. But Elenah couldn't help feel something toward him at first sight. She just had no idea as to what that something was.

Elenah swollowed hard and forced a bright smile to her face, "Is this your Padawan?"

"I'm Obi-Wan Kenobi."

Elenah accepted his offered hand. "It's good to meet you."

"Obi-Wan has been my student for many years," Qui-Gon beamed proudly. "He will be a fine Knight someday. I'm very proud of him."

Obi-Wan shot Qui-Gon a stare that said he was giving to much away, and Qui-Gon eased his fears through their Force bond. He knew that Obi-Wan had no intention of letting Elenah know who he really was, and he would respect that.

Elenah was no longer apart of his life.

"I'm sure you are." Elenah Alliah agreed.

"Senator, this way please." Qui-Gon lead the woman onto the Ship with her aides not far behind, and Obi-Wan was left to place the luggage aboard Ship.
-------------------------------------------
Obi-Wan sat with Qui-Gon in silence in the cockpit, after seeing that the Naboo Senator was settled in peacefully for their journey. She was a nice woman. Obi-Wan could easily see some things in her that reminded him of himself. They even had the same eyes.

"You're thinking of her."

Obi-Wan's thoughts snapped back to present and the Padawan scolwed at his Master.

"She is my mother."

Qui-Gon chuckled.

"What?"

"Obi-Wan, you feel something toward her and it's alright." Qui-Gon scolded gentally.

"No it isn't Master!" Obi-Wan argued strongly. "A Jedi isn't supposed to form attachments!
At least that's what Master Yoda is always blabbering on about."

"It is alright to form relationships, but not at the expense of yourself or others." Qui-Gon argued back. "Especially others."

"Just not romantic affairs?" Obi-Wan asked.

"Affairs of the heart can lead into dangerous ground for Jedi." Qui-Gon said. "It leads to obsession, anger, hate..."

"But can't you ever love anyone?" Obi-Wan asked softly.

"Do you want to love your mother, Obi-Wan?" Qui-Gon countered gentally.

"No,' Obi-Wan quickly answered. "I don't even know who she is."

"The council frowns upon romantic relationships." Qui-Gon continued. Obi-Wan was greatful for the change in subject. "But they're not forbidden. Usually a Jedi is a full level Master before taking on such ideals of life."

Obi-Wan then leaned back in his co-pilot seat and listened to his Master explain romance, and wondered briefly what his parents relationship had been like.

Elenah Alliah escorted the Jedi through the city of Theed when they landed. She briefly showed them sights of the city as they made their way toward her family home.

"My daughter Millann will still be in school," Elenah explained, as she lead them into the picture perfect home of flowers and stone work that were everywhere. "But my husband Graag will be home. He'll likely be in the back yard reading a book."

"You're married Milady?" Obi-Wan sounded startled. Was this Graag his father? He had a sister?

"Yes," Elenah smiled. "We've been married nearly six years. Millann is our only daughter and child. We hope to have more some day, but we're so busy with our jobs. It makes it hard to plan a family."

"Have you ever been married before?" Obi-Wan asked quickly.

"That is not a kind question to a lady, Padawan Kenobi." Elenah countered.

"My Padawan is a curious young man," Qui-Gon defended. "You must forgive him Senator Alliah. He ment no disrespect."

"None taken." Elenah smiled. "But no. I have never been married before."

Obi-Wan blushed deeply and looked away. He didn't know what to think of that.

Was that another reason why his mother gave him away?

That she had gotten pregnant by some strange boy, and was to young to marry him?

Had she loved him?

There were so many questions.

"Here." Elenah began. "Let me take you to the yard. Graag will be happy to see new faces. We get so little company."

Obi-Wan could only sigh and wish that he had never come along.

I'll have a new post tomorrow morning!

 

-----------------------------
Elenah lead the Jedi into the back courtyard of her house. Her husband Graag was seated on thick lush grass by a small lake. He was deeply engrossed in a hard cover text he was reading.

"Elenah, we have guests my love?" Graag then looked up and smiled at Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan. "Greetings Jedi Knights."

"They have been assigned to me at the request of Chancellor Valorum," Elenah told her husband softly. "There was another attempt on my life."

"Three actually." Obi-Wan said.

Graag stood up quickly and took his wife gentally in his arms. "My dearest, why didn't you summon me to Imperial City? I would have come strait away should I have known."

"I'm fine." Elenah insisted. "There is no need for such worry. I'm home now and my Jedi Protector's are here to keep me safe."

Obi-Wan frowned deeply at seeing the full view of Graag's face. He was so young. At least five years younger than Elenah, if not more so. There was no way he could be the father of a sixteen year old.

Qui-Gon gave him a look to remind him to say nothing of his feelings. He didn't have to.

Obi-Wan Kenobi had never felt so disappointed in his life.
