Hello, my lovely readers! Now, I feel I must warn you, this is just a random plot bunny that has been ravaging my brain, because I was watching TPM, and I decided I really don't like Qui-Gon dying, and that eventually led me to thinking, what if Anakin never existed? If Obi-Wan had just been knighted and took on a Padawan of his own, and all was right in the world? And this is what I came up with.
Warning 1: Very OCy. It has to be!
Warning 2: Minimal amount of real characters until at least the third chapter, which I haven't even written yet.
Warning 3: … … … Actually, no, that was it… …
Ok, please R&R, I don't own Star Wars, please don't flame, and all of those generic A/N things…
Enjoy!
It was late in the day when Coronarcher looked up and saw the delicate spires of the Jedi Temple. They were beautiful as always, glinting in the setting sun, looking like they belonged in someone's imagination, not bound to reality and the earth like they were. The closer peaks of the buildings, however, they were not nearly so heavenly. They were the flats, industrial, practical rooves of the inner buildings of the Temple; the bits that no outsider ever saw. There were dozens of them, varying in size, shape and angle, with the gaps between them going from a foot to gaping, bantha-sized holes.
Crawen looked over from where he sat reading some old fashioned book he had scrounged from somewhere. Upon seeing the sly narrowing of his friend Corrie's eyes, the Iktotchi rolled his own. "What is it this time, Corrie?" he asked bluntly.
That got the others' attention. The others, being Jonah, Macu, Lolee and Arak. They were spread over a section of the temple Gardens, supposedly studying, but the study session had transformed into a sparring contest, followed by a lot of sleeping and being generally lazy.
Lolee's head jumped up, the Rakata's eyes rotating as he stretched. "What, what, what?"
Seeing he had the group's attention, Corrie got up onto his knees. "I just had a brilliant idea." he said, using his hands to illustrate him emotion.
Before he got any further, he was met with groans and whinging.
"A brilliant idea like attaching magnets to Master Obi-Wan's roof?" Jonah asked sarcastically, her black ringlets bouncing off her shoulders as she shook her head, one slender eyebrow cocked.
"Or that time where we projected a holo onto the wall in Master Windu's quarters?"
Lolee and Corrie sniggered. "Yeah, only better."
Arak shook her head uncertainly, her green lekku curling. "I don't know, Corrie, we always seem to end up scrubbing floors when we go through with these brilliant ideas of yours."
Corrie, being a very theatrical boy, walked over to Arak on his knees, putting a hand on her shoulder. "Well you could say that, but that's just looking at the negative!" He looked at her, straight on.
"Now, Arak, look me in the eye and tell me that you won't laugh every time you remember my poor Master Obi-wan's face when he woke up in the morning and the cutlery was levitating."
A chuckle did make its way around the group.
Corrie spun from his knees onto his feet, so he was standing, arms outstretched towards the lower rooves. "This, is my new plan!"
He crouched down again, skulking around the group until he came to rest by Macu, the other Twi'lek in the group. He looked at Corrie with a mildly amused expression.
"But shh, shh, no-one can know, or it would be ruined!"
He crouched in the middle, gesturing for everyone to move closer.
His small audience obliged, more out of curiosity than anything else.
"Ok-"
The overly-theatrical human halted for a moment, everyone poking their heads out of the huddle to grin at the passing Masters.
"Hello, how are this morning Master Yoda?" Lolee led off.
"Oh, you're looking fantastic today, Master Windu!" Macu said cheerily.
"Yes, I love what you've done with your hair, is that a new style?" Corrie added, grinning as the Council members shook their heads and walked off.
He was quickly back into secretive mode. "Ok, so, here's what we do…"
So, there you go…please continue reading, and please review! I am very sorry to anyone who finds Star Wars inaccuracies in there. Feel free to inform me of my mistakes, but please don't abuse me for it.
Tell me what you think of my OCs!
