Prologue: the Jedi Temple
'Younglings, this Anakin is,' master Yoda said, 'Anakin, meet younglings.'
'Hello,' the young boy named Anakin said and raised his hand for a moment. All thirteen eyes were in his direction.
'Anakin, you can sit right next to Shameha, right over there,' the teaching Jedi master said.
'If you anything need, I will hear,' master Yoda said to Anakin, 'master Obi-Wan stay now, take care him of.'
'Yes, master, may the Force be with you,' Obi-Wan said. Master Yoda turned around and walked out of the classroom. Anakin stood a bit surprised.
'Well, go on,' Obi-Wan laughed, 'sit down. Hello, Shameha!'
'Hello, Obi-W!' the girl smiled. Anakin sat down next to her. The classroom was half round and the younglings sat down on stairs facing the flat side of the room where the teaching Jedi was standing.
'Anakin, welcome to the Jedi Temple. My name is Kypso. If you have any questions, please raise your hand. Now, we were just talking about…
'But Anakin already lost his concentration. The roof of the classroom changed colors in a waves. It was so fascinating. Much more interesting that what ever Kypi was telling. Or was her name Kops? It did not matter to Anakin, he just liked the ceiling.
'You won't even dare, snake face!' Shameha yelled. Obi-Wan ran down the hallway. Shameha stood before three older Anzati boys.
'Well, better a snake face than having you dead skin!' one of them yelled back. But before Shameha could jump upon him Obi-Wan stepped between them.
'Shameha, calm down,' he said and pushed her down on her shoulders, 'you three, walk on.'
'But they were-'
'Shameha, what did master Yoda tell you?' Obi-Wan said, kneeling down.
'To keep calm and honor my family,' she sighed and looked to the ground.
'Right, and you will, trust me! But not by picking fights, ok?'
'Ok, Obi,' she said and smiled. Before he could stand up she hugged him.
'Shameha, would you do me a favor?' he asked, seeing Anakin in the corner.
'Sure, tell me,' the little girl said.
'Would you show Anakin around? Show him where to go, where not to go, where-'
'I'll show him, Obi-W,' she smiled, 'bye! I mean: may the Force be with you.'
'And with you,' Obi-Wan smiled and Shameha ran to Anakin.
'Anakin, right?' she said. Anakin looked up from his book.
'Yeah, and you're Shameha, right?' he said, standing up.
'Absolutely right!' she smiled, 'Hey, Obi asked me to show you around.'
'Sure,' Anakin replied, happy to get some company.
'But you'll have to stay close, 'cause the Temple is a very dangerous place,' Shameha said looking deep in Anakin's eyes and laid her hands on his shoulders, 'I'll try to protect you, but the road is very dangerous.'
'O, don't worry. I'll try to protect you!' Anakin smiled and laid his hands on her shoulders.
'You're right,' Shameha said, 'we'll have to protect each other. Anakin, can I trust you with my life?'
'Like it is my own,' he replied bravely, 'And can I trust you with mine?'
'They'll have to take my life before I would give yours,' Shameha said heroic.
For a moment they stood before each other. The blond boy with the blue shiny eyes only a bit taller. The dark brown almost black haired girl with the bright grey, almost white eyes, which were black outlined. Anakin was amazed by her skin. It was whiter than marble, almost white as light.
'Let's be friends, Ani, may I call you Ani?' she asked, dragging his attention back.
'Sure, and yes, let's be friends,' he answered. Her eyes glistened.
'Come one, we have a whole new world to discover!' she said, taking his hand and running off.
'Careful,' Anakin said, 'we must not be seen!' Immediately the two children jumped behind some pillars, slowly making their way forward.
