Obi-Wan sighed, running his hands through his hair. He heard the door open and saw his young Padawan, Anakin. Obi-Wan sat cross-legged on his bed, leaning against the wall.
"Obi-Wan, what's wrong?" Anakin asked. "I felt your anxiety."
Obi-Wan looked at the Padawan. "Anakin," Kenobi muttered, looked down at his hands. "You…you won't like what I'm about to say."
"I don't like half the things you say." Anakin grinned.
Obi-Wan didn't return the smile.
"The Jedi Council has told me that I must go on a mission to Cryonic." Obi-Wan murmured.
Anakin was about to speak when his Master spoke before him.
"Alone, Anakin." Obi-Wan said.
Anakin stared at Obi-Wan. "Cryonic?" he echoed.
Obi-Wan nodded.
"Master, you cannot go there alone!" Skywalker said, sitting down in a chair.
Obi-Wan sighed. "Try telling that to the Council, Anakin," the older Jedi murmured. "They've made their decision."
"I know, but-"
"Anakin," Obi-Wan cut his Padawan off gently. "Stop."
Anakin looked at him. "Master, please don't go."
Obi-Wan ran his hands through his hair again. "It's not my decision to go, Anakin. But I have to."
Anakin looked in the corner and saw one bag packed.
Obi-Wan stood up. "I-I should be going." he whispered, using the Force to grab the bag.
The Master and Padawan walked to the Hangar and saw Obi-Wan's Starfighter all ready.
R3-P17—Obi-Wan's droid—was already in her spot in the Starfighter.
"Be careful, General Kenobi." Cody muttered.
Obi-Wan nodded. "Thank you, Commander. I will." he said and hopped into the Starfighter.
Obi-Wan looked at Anakin. "Please don't do anything stupid, Anakin." Kenobi murmured.
"Obi-Wan, please don't go." Anakin said, looking at him.
"You can't change anything now." Obi-Wan murmured, the top of the Starfighter closing.
Kenobi flew his 'fighter out of the Hangar.
"May the Force be with you, Obi-Wan." Skywalker whispered.
