Chapter Summary:

Tonight, finally fed up with his apprentice’s continued failures, Darth Plagueis administers a painful and quite memorable lesson upon the mind and body of Darth Sidious.

For some reason, nearly every Force-sensitive on Coruscant experiences some of Sidious’ torment as a horrific nightmare. But it could have been worse. The Temple itself has come alive and protects its children and the most vulnerable.

Excerpt from Chapter 26 - Eternity is a Perfected Form of Loneliness

He’s tucking in his tunic when, of all things, Master Yoda just barges into Vokara’s office, and that weird feeling just gets even worse. The little green troll doesn’t say anything, he just looks at the two of them, and waits for Vokara to pull out a Yoda-sized seat for him.

"Hmm, thank you."  And Yoda gets right down to business.  "Much to discuss we have."

"We do?"  Obi-Wan wonders just what Yoda knows about him.  Maybe, by some miracle, everything?  After all, Yoda frequently goes to Ilum and experiences visions in the caverns there.  This "Force’s Champion" business would be so much easier if he had Yoda’s help.  But that still doesn’t explain Vokara’s presence and why here and now, and not during their twice-weekly afternoon teas?

"Yes, yes.  Much business.  About your midi-chlorians, foolish things they are."

His heart sinks.  Oh well, so much for hope.  "What about them?"

"About the discovery of the midi-chlorians, what know you?"

"Not much, Master Yoda."  That’s the absolute truth, in the timeline and his original life.  Midi-chlorians were simply a fact of life, of being a Jedi, and they were mostly shrouded in mystery.

"Youngling I was, barely able to speak, when Jedi scientists isolated midi-chlorians in living matter.  Destroyed the mystery and the beauty of our connection to the Force.  Quantified everything.  To a number, reduced it all.  A percentage."  Master Yoda thumps his stick on the floor, clearly annoyed.  "No good comes of this knowledge."

Obi-Wan sneaks a glance at Master Che, and she’s grimacing at the denigration of her work.

"But, useful it is.  And as it may be, progress we must.  Visions I had of you, before we met on Tatooine.  Of Light, and of Darkness too.  Of the great battle between.  Pivot point you may be, young Obi-Wan."

Obi-Wan nods.  This is good.  Yoda sees part of the picture.  Not everything, but a part of it.  Except that he’s seeing the wrong part, apparently.  A part that Obi-Wan isn’t the least bit prepared for.

"Your midi-chlorians.  Unique they are."

"Well, I do have an awful lot of them."

The little green troll chuckles.  "Brilliant understatement that is.  Would knight you for that, if I could."

"Well, I’m glad you can’t, because I’m not the least bit ready."

Yoda hops off his seat and toddles over to Obi-Wan, staring up at him, his dark eyes as fathomless as space.  "To me, you must listen.  Important what I have to tell you."

"I always listen to you, Grand Master."

"Yes, yes.  You do.  Good padawan you are.  Proud of you I am."  Yoda sighs, his ears drooping just a bit.  "The Force, a great gift it has given you.  Your midi-chlorians, immortal they are."

Chapter Summary:  Rael Averross, that agent of chaos, Dooku’s first padawan, formally enters the picture, along with his soon-to-be-knighted padawan, Nim Pianna.  

Rael spent decades as a Shadow and tends to be the suspicious sort.  For instance, his padawan-brother’s newest padawan is a puzzle within a conundrum wrapped inside an enigma. One he’s dying to pick apart.

Excerpt from Chapter 28 - It’s The Light That Makes You Remember:

As Obi-Wan approaches the apartment, he picks up excitement and delight from his master, who shouldn’t even be in their suite this time of day.  He reaches out, carefully shielded, and senses a surprisingly familiar presence.

Obi-Wan takes a deep breath and keys in his door code.  Inside, he finds his master and his padawan-brother sharing a pot of tea.

"Obi-Wan, look who has come to visit!"  His master is practically glowing with happiness.

"I can see."  Obi-Wan smiles and offers a tiny bow, "Hello, Anakin.  This is a wonderful surprise.  Did we know you were coming to Coruscant?  You didn’t mention when we talked last week."  Either he or Qui-Gon talks with the Skywalker-Naberrie family at least twice a month, so much for letting non-Jedi family connections fade…

Qui-Gon just says, "I thought it would be a nice surprise, so I told him to keep it a secret."

And Anakin, his not-once-padawan, laughs delightedly.  "Oh, Obi-Wan, you sound like you’ve spent far too much time as a Council Padawan, you poor thing."  He unfolds himself from the kitchen chair and strides over to give Obi-Wan a hug.  "You look amazing, brother-mine."

Obi-Wan can’t help but hug Anakin back, tightly.

"Ooof."  When Anakin lets go, they stare at each other, like old friends reunited, although they’d only met once face-to-face. In this timeline. "And so do you."

There’s a gentle glow about Anakin’s face — not just the warmth of good health and living in a temperate climate, but that of living a peaceful, happy, and fulfilling life that can never be transmitted through a holo-projector.  Obi-Wan looks into those bright blue eyes and nearly bursts into tears.

He gathers the threads of his emotional control and asks, "What brings you here?"

"To the Temple?"

"No, idiot, to Coruscant?"

Anakin looks over his shoulder at their Master and asks, "Does he talk to you like this?"

"Oh, certainly not, Obi-Wan is the most earnest and respectful padawan a Jedi master could want."  Qui-Gon snickers.  "Unlike some others in this room."

"Yourself included?"

"Hmm, I’m not answering that question.  But next time you see your Great-grandmaster, you might ask him."

Anakin makes a face.

"Speaking of questions, you haven’t answered mine."  Obi-Wan pokes at Anakin, stunning in his sky-blue trousers and over-tunic, such a novel look on him.  "Not that it isn’t a delight to see you, but …"

"I’m here with Padmé, or rather, Queen Amidala.  She is in her last six months of her term as Queen and she is here to give testimony against the Trade Federation.  The trial begins in the Senate.  Finally."

Obi-Wan frowns.  "It’s only been, what, five years?"

"Four years, ten months, eighteen days on the official Naboo calendar, since the Trade Federation invaded."

"That’s very precise, Anakin," Qui-Gon says approvingly.

"Well, Padmé and I have been married four years, seven months and three days."  Anakin looks at his chrono.  "And nine hours."

"I guess you’re no longer in love, since you haven’t calculated the hours, minutes and seconds," Obi-Wan teases.

Anakin wads up his napkin and throws it at him.

"Children, please.  If you’re going to fight, take it down to the salles."   Qui-Gon gets up.  "You’ll have to excuse me, I’ve got a Council meeting I can’t get out of."

Anakin shakes his head.  "I can’t believe you let them give you a seat on the High Council, Master."

Qui-Gon laughs.  "Someone has to keep them on their toes.  Obi-Wan, would you rather mind the desk and take notes, or spend time with your brother?"

Obi-Wan’s gaze flicks over to Anakin, who nods eagerly.  "Oh, if you think they can do without me for the day?"

"I think we’ll manage."  Qui-Gon tugs his braid.  "Enjoy yourselves and try not to get into too much trouble."  Then his master shakes his head.  "Yeah, as if that’s even possible.  Obi-Wan, keep an eye on your brother, please.  He’s not a knight anymore, who knows what mischief he’ll get up to."

Qui-Gon exits to the sound of ringing laughter.

Anakin leans back in his chair, arms folded across his chest, and Obi-Wan’s heart swells with joy.  This is how it should always have been.

There are three things that Bruck Chun knows about himself, he’s going to be a damn good Jedi Healer, he barely knows which end of a lightsaber to hold, and he’s the sweetest, kindest, easiest boy-whore currently wearing a gold senior padawan bead.

He’s not going to do anything to jeopardize his position in the Order, but there’s something about Obi-Wan Kenobi - a/k/a Padawan Mysterious, Padawan Delicious, Padawan Perfection - that just makes his head spin.Not that he’s going to throw his good judgment out the window, it’s just, well, all that lovely red hair and those freckles. And those muscles. And that ass.

Mmmm.

Chapter Summary:   At first, it seems as if Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan are about to embark on their first mission, but the High Council quickly squashes that hope flat.  Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan are temporarily separated for the sake of diplomacy and neither master nor padawan are happy about this.

What’s the worst that could happen?  Obi-Wan gets to spend some quality time with his great-grandmaster and Qui-Gon does what he does best, solving the Galaxy’s problems by following the Will of the Force.

Everything should work out just fine.

Chapter Summary: Four padawans, life-long friends - Siri Tachi, Aayla Secura, Bant Eerin and Bruck Chun -  are insanely curious about Qui-Gon Jinn’s new learner.  Padawans don’t just pop up in the Temple like this without anyone knowing anything about them. Right?
