Dear all my readers we've been way too out of touch
Things have been crazy and it sucks that we don't talk that much
But I should tell you I think of this story all night
I try to start writing and-
Did you actually think I was going to finish that reference to DEH
Love the musical, made me cry, kinda saw myself in Connor in the fact that we both get angry v easily, are kinda depressed but peoples think we are just assholes, and yeah. I don't smoke the weed though.
Anyway! Welcome to the sequel of Child of Kenobi
*Disclaimer: I do not own Star Wars in any shape or form*
Just a reminder: this is the sequel to my first story, Child of Kenobi. The plot will not make sense if you have not read that story first!
Now on with the story.

Sabine's PoV
Two years.
I hadn't seen my best friend in two years.
Was she even still alive?
There had been no trace of her. Han had dropped her off at Tatooine, and hadn't heard from her since then.
I had just turned twenty-one, that means in a few months, Maeve would be twenty…
It was honestly weird, not knowing where she was.
"Sabine, The council wants to talk to us," my boyfriend Ezra knocked on my door. I had taken Maeve's room because it was either I take it, or Haven did.
I know the council doesn't like that I'm still here after the war ended, and the fact that I was still in possession of the darksaber. Haven had asked for it, but no. Just no. It was mine by law. Not hers.
I looked over at Ezra, he was now a good couple of inches taller than me. He also let his hair grow out, and I mean grow. It was so long he usually kept it up in a high ponytail. He also wore robes similar to Master Skywalker's a lot.
Me, I still wore my armor, but I dyed my hair dark purple to match the armor, and the top portion of my hair was getting a bit long so I would gel it up sometimes.
"Let me guess, , we are glad to have you here, even though we totally hate you and wish you would leave, and we ask that you give ownership of the darksaber of Mandalore to Haven Saxon, who murdered most of the senators in the Galaxy, because she is currently the only mandalorian Jedi, even though we totally had another who was stronger, but we made a stupid decision and now she is nowhere to be found." I mocked the council
I saw the slightest tug on the corner of Ezra's mouth.
"Sabine, you know the council probably has cameras in here." He commented leaning against the door frame
"Oh, in that case… I'm not giving her the darksaber, mandalorian tradition stipulates that the saber is won through combat, and therefore it belongs to Mae. I am merely holding on to it for her. Haven has no claim to it, and she never will." I looked at the little floating ball in the corner
"Come on, we need to go hun" he laced his fingers around mine.
Ezra was one of the few people I actually liked, I despised most of the council for what they did to maeve. They even proclaimed her dead.
But Master Kenobi still had faith that his daughter was alive.
We entered the circular room to see most of the high council there, the few who were out on peacekeeping missions were present through holograms.
"Hello, how are you all today?" I asked with a slightly sarcastic tone
" ." Mace Windu glared at me
"Windu, how are you buddy, still saying my best friend is dead? Or did you call me here to tell me to give up the saber, that Haven has no claim to, again?" I asked faking a smile
"We realize that the only way to get you to give up the saber is to have you and Haven spar, so we here hoping you would agree to that" Master Luminara started
"Imma stop you here. That's not the rules. It's a fight to the death. Not sparing, fight to the death. Pre Vizsla lost it, and his head, to Maul, Maul lost it, and his life to Maeve Kenobi, Who I believe is still alive, so sparing, if that was the rule, would not work anyway, since I do not have full ownership to it." I looked directly at the bald bastard
" is dead." Master Shaak-Ti said calmly
"And how do you know that? It's not like you helped us look or anything, honestly seemed kinda glad to be rid of her." I gripped the handle of my saber till I thought my knuckles where translucent.
"Sorry, we are, , missed She is. Regretful, parted ways the way we did"
"Look, I'm never going to give Haven the darksaber, so please. Stop asking" I turned on my heel and left the room.
I wasn't crazy, I know she is alive. I feel it.
After Ezra started teaching me how to wield my blade, the council tested my midichlorian count. Wasn't very high, in fact it was quite low. I couldn't lift shit, and the mind tricks Maeve pulled off, not even close to achieving them.
I walked over to the balcony which led to the entrance of the hideout where we planned our rogue mission two years ago. It was mostly the same, no one ever came down here.
"Sabine."
I heard a familiar voice calling me down. I had nothing better to do.
I entered the hideout, only to see Maeve sitting there. She looked exactly the same.
"Maeve," I choked out
"Why didn't you stop me?" she asked, a frown on her face
"W-what are you talking about?"
"Why didn't you stop me from leaving? Do you know what happened to me after I left?"
I didn't get the chance to answer
"I died, I died in the tombs of Korriban. You'll never see me again"
I couldn't move, I could barely breathe.
I watched in horror as Maeve's body started paling, and fell to the ground, dead.
I collapsed, falling to my knees, I couldn't breathe, she was right there, she was so real.
I needed a drink, but the temple doesn't allow any alcoholic beverages inside. Lucky for me I knew a cantina on one of the lower levels.
Making my way downtown, flying fast, faces burring and I'm gonna get a drink.
I landed in front of the cantina, but there was this weird energy surrounding it. It was almost, familiar.
Entering the dimly lit bar I sat down at the counter, very few patrons sat scattered around the edges, the music was a low beat, and cast a calm vibe across the room.
Still I felt that weird aura pulling at me. Probably a result of that horrible dream I just experienced.
"One tihar, on the rocks." I ordered
"Somebody already paid for you doll. The cathar behind the counter growled. Pointing to a shadowy figure in the corner.
Picking up the drink I made my way over to them.
"Thanks,but I'm taken."
They said nothing, merely motioning for me to sit down. I complied.
Everything in me was screaming run, get away from them, but I couldn't help but be curious, the strange aura I had been feeling, it was coming from them.
"Who are you?" I tried to sound as dominate as I could, but my voice came out like a raspy sob
They dropped the cloak that covered them.
I looked across the table in the dimly lit cantina. There sat a girl I barely recognized. Could you blame me? I haven't seen her in nearly two whole years.
I was at a loss of words.
Her strawberry blond hair had grown from the lob it once was, to nearly going past her shoulder blades, though one side of it was completely shaved, leaving a buzz that reminded me of the men back home.
Her skin, which had already been pale even to our people's standards, was even paler now, dark veins running just below her skin. Her once blue eyes, Golden like the sands of Tatooine.
Her clothing was blood red, cutting off right above where her scars started, she was showing them, odd. High waisted black pants, and thigh high boots seemed normal for her. Even the silver belts that held the familiar hilts of two lightsabers just fit however; I doubt the color would be the same brilliant silver it once was.
The biggest thing that I noticed, was the black stitch work that covered her right arm. It didn't seem to serve a point, it was just there. And it was very unsettling.
"So why are you here?" I heard a slightly gravelly voice ask. I turned behind me but no one was there. I then realized it was my best friend's voice.
Maeve Kenobi.
"I could ask you the exact same thing, where have you been? Why didn't you stay?"
"You never found my message?" She leaned back in her chair
"The message you left telling the whole council to 'go fuck themselves with their lightsabers' yeah we found that" I was a little ticked at her
"No, the one I left you. Heh, it wouldn't surprise me if the Jedi found it, and kept it from you, it was telling you why I was leaving, but you know. Why would the council give that to you?" She inquired bitterly
I let her words sink in. Then she spoke once more
"But maybe the council didn't find it, I put it behind the photo of Ezra in the dancing girl outfit. But I think my first thoughts were right."
"That may be so, but please come back." I begged her
"You think the Jedi would let me live, after what I did" Maeve laughed dryly
"They let Haven live, look what she did." I growled, I had to watch Haven get everything Maeve was supposed to for two years, she even had the gaul to try to apologize to the four of us for her trying to kill us.
She had been assigned to Master Bater, pretty sure they were in a relationship.
"Yes, but Haven destroyed a droid factory, that gave her points to live," she frowned, taking a sip of the clear liquid before her
"And you're the daughter of a high council member, plus you have us. You don't have to do this." I pleaded
"That is where you are wrong"
(๑◡๑)
Maeve's PoV
My best friend sat across from me, begging me to come back to the light.
Pathetic.
My master told me this would happen.
Sabine was different though. She changed her hair color yet again.
Her now completely dark purple hair was longer on the top than it was on the sides. She had it gelled up, it was slightly spiked, but I couldn't judge her on a new look.
I cut off half of my hair, and stitched up my hand cause I was bored.
"She wants you to give up all your power, she wants you to be weak again." My master's voice whispered
Turns out it wasn't some random female voice I conjured up in my head. My master had been living in the tomb of Naga Shadow on Korriban. She had already taught me so many things.
"Maeve, please. We all miss you" Sabine spoke
"None of them ever cared about me. The only reason we knew each other was because Leia shot me in the leg." I glared standing up, I knocked the drink back, shit didn't help me sleep anymore, but who cares.
"I can't let you leave Mae." She said quietly
"You can, and you will. See I don't want to hurt you, despite what the Jedi will tell you. I- just not you. Just please, stay out of my way, because if you try to stop me, I will not hesitate to kill you." I started walking away before stopping once more
(๑◡๑)
Sabine's PoV
Her last words gave me hope that she wasn't gone.
"I'm sorry about your dad. Please give your family my regards at the funeral"
I watched her leave, throwing a black cloak over her small, scared, back.
"I'm sorry Mae, but i have to get in your way. It's the only way I will redeem you." I walked out myself, finding her nowhere to be seen.
With that I activated my jetpack, and made my way back to the temple.
(๑◡๑)
Back at the temple
Ezra's PoV
"Have you seen Sabine? She stormed out of the council chamber earlier and I haven't been able to find her since." I asked Luke and Leia
"No, did you check the hangout?" Luke suggested
"You mean the one none of us have entered since Maeve left?" I rose and eyebrow
"It's kinda close to the council chamber." Leia pushed
"Fine, I'll go down there, but if Caleb asks, I'm meditating." I parted ways from the twins
Jumping down the roof I could hear a bang inside the abandoned building.
Sliding down I found Sabine with her helmet plugged into the holo terminal. She was hitting the damn thing pretty hard.
"Sabine? What are you doing?" My presence caused her to jump
"I'm trying to hook my helmet up to the terminal, what does it look like I'm doing?" She snapped
"Ok, sweety, calm down, I can help you get it connected" I put my hand on her shoulder, and I felt her relax under my touch.
"Thank you, I just saw something and I need to make sure I'm not crazy"
I worked on getting it to project, she already got the cable in the helmet.
"What did you see?" I asked powering up the screen, a view of entering a cantina came onto screen, it was the same cantina that I went to with Maeve, where I met Sabine.
"I kept hearing this voice, and then I saw her here, in this room but it was just a vision I think, but I couldn't help but feel this strange pull, and then I saw her" she pointed to the screen, and my heart nearly stopped.
Maeve Kenobi, live and in the flesh.
"Sabine, is that who I think it is?"
"Thank force, you see her too," my girlfriend let out a sigh of relief
"H-how did you find her?"
"I just followed this strange aura I sensed. I do know. She's not the same, she's changed so much."
"We have to bring this to the council" I spoke softly
"Yeah ok lets-" She was cut off by an alarm sounding
"Ezra! Where are you? There's been an explosion at the front gate! Droids are pouring in!" Caleb's voice crackled through my com-link
"On our way!" I replied
"No, get to the council chamber, seperate charges went off there, they might need help"
I looked over to the Mandalorian girl, nodded and we both sprinted towards the exit.

Obi-Wan's PoV
It had been two years since my daughter went missing, one year since she was declared dead by the council.
I did not believe she was dead. I owed my dear Satine that.
I have kept in touch with my son, we talk regularly, but have not publicized our relation, that would mean him announcing being Satine's son. That would not be the best for the political situation of Mandalore.
Two years.
She would be twenty soon according to Sabine.
Sabine and Ahsoka has taken it the hardest. One lost a dear friend, practically a sister. The other lost their first pupil not even three months after becoming a teacher.
Ahsoka blames herself for what happened, Anakin tried to comfort her, but she still wasn't doing well.
In Fact I was going to speak with her now.
"Ahsoka, may I enter?" I knocked
"One moment Master Kenobi!" She called
The door opened inviting me in, there Ashoka sat reading some of the oldest exits we had.
"Yes Obi-Wan?" She inquired shuffling the books around
"I wanted to speak to you about taking on a new padawan. Anakin and I both agree it would be good for you, but I wanted to address you first." I explained
"Do I know them?" She asked after pausing a moment
"I think Ms. Sabine Wren would be good, if not for force training than just combat training, Ezra can only show her so much." I explained
"I believe that is acceptable." She gave me a small smile
I started to walk away when she spoke once more
"How are you doing?"
"I'm doing as well as I can. I did not know Mae as well as you may have, but she is Satine and my daughter. I simply wish to talk to her once more."
"I understand master Kenobi, I will report to the council chamber as soon as I am ready." She gave me a smile, and I left
I could sense her pain. She still blamed herself for everything that had happened. It also didn't help that the council had decided to get rid of the clone troopers after the clone wars ended. While many of protested the mass execution the majority of the council voted that we didn't need them anymore, and in an attempt to save a few of the loyal clones who had survived order 66 Master Plo Koon had disappeared.
Rex, Wolfe, and Gregor hasn't been seen or heard from either.
Suddenly the temple shook.
The invasion alarm sounded, then the lights dimmed.
"We need to get to the council chamber." Ahsoka ran towards me holding her two lightsabers
"Indeed"
|(￣3￣)|
Luke's PoV
As the explosion tore through the council chambers I was knocked back and buried under a pillar, I however did not attempt to move it on my own. I saw my father laying in the ground, unconscious but it appeared he had slowed his breath to hid the fact he was alive.
Two cloaked figures entered the council chamber
"You will pay for what you have done today!" Master Windu stood up, lightsaber ignited
"Windu, fight them, do not" Yoda spoke, holding his hand out
"But Master-" he was cut off by the taller figure laughing
"Hahaha at least someone recognizes me. Ya know I was a little worried, I mean faking my death for nearly four millennia. Being put in stasis underneath the tomb of naga shadow is not as fun as it sounds." A dark smile showed from under the cloak
"You terrorized the universe for years, and only your brother could contain your murderous impulses, after the council failed to wipe your memories and turn you back to the light, eh Revan?" Master Shaak Ti questioned
The figure lowered her hood to show a woman in her mid thirties with long dark hair, golden eyes, and skin as white as paper with black veins running underneath.
"Revan? The famous Jedi knight?" Obi-Wan arrived at the door, Ahsoka behind him
"No, you are thinking of my older brother Revan. We are twins and the birth data pad messed up so we are both named Revan, I used to go by Raven, but then I started to go by my legal name to piss him off." She smiled darkly
(Ok, note. So I played the first generation of old republic games with my brothers and I always lived for how Revan could be either male or female. Now with the newer generation they made Revan male. I wanted to incorporate the fact that they could have been either gender, and with my family my brothers like to be part of the light side, and be good children's. I preferred to go the darker route, turn Carth to the dark side, and fuck with the Galaxy. So this is just me projecting, on with the story)
"You see, the male Revan was the famous Jedi Knight who died trying to save the universe. This is his you get sister, the Sith Lord Revan who attacked the republic after the mandalorian wars, and had her mind wiped by the Jedi council of her time." Shaak ti explained
"See what they didn't tell you in the history books is I did more for the universe during the mandalorian wars, my brother stayed home. However I was the one punished for his sins. He was the one who first interacted with Mandalore, he single handedly started a war I ended. That's why my apprentice joined me, she knows what it's like to pay for someone else's sins." Revan flared, igniting a deep red lightsaber, the handle was sleek and elegant.
The smaller figure stepped up, igniting two blaring red lightsabers, the hilts all too familiar.
"Where did you get those lightsabers?" I heard Ahsoka ask the apprentice
"What the fuck? I swear I saw you half an hour ago. Is this what you meant by what you'd done?" I saw Sabine at the opposite door, extra standing next to her
"Who is this?" Master Windu demanded
"Oh? You don't recognize me? You wound me Windy, I mean you recruited me two years ago. Though you have thought I was dead, or at least hoped I was dead, hell you sent clones out to execute me, without letting my dad know. Too much of a liability I guess."
The cloak fell off, and my heart stopped.
Maeve. It was Maeve. The girl I met nearly two years ago, the one who disappeared nearly two months after meeting her.
"Miss Kenobi! I knew you would be trouble." Master Windu growled
"It's technically Kryze, Kenobi is the last name of the man who helped in making me, but not in raising me. Hell he's the reason my mother died in the first place." Mae looked at Obi-Wan with such coldness the room dropped ten degrees
"Now. Where's Haven. I know she's still alive. I mean she probably suggested you send people to kill me, too bad they came back with the wrong person dead." A crazed smile formed on her face
I felt sick to my stomach, how could this be the same girl.
(๑◡๑)
HAPPY REVENGE OF THE FIFTH! Thought I would start this story off with a bang. Pun uninitiated, but not hated.
