Reminiscence

Chapter 1

In the Jedi Temple located on Coruscant the city that covered an entire planet. Qui-Gon Jinn stood in the center of the Jedi council chamber. He was giving his report of his lasted mission as the twelve members of the council looked on at the tall Jedi.

" The negotiations between the Terma and the Teliko seemed to be going well, until the day of the signing. Members of the Teliko rebellion attacked. We managed to get the delegates to an escape transport. Obi-Wan and myself held off the Rebels for as long as we could. I told Obi-Wan to get to the transport. A few minutes after he left I followed but when I got to the transport Obi-wan was nowhere to be seen. I accompanied the delegates safely to Coruscant. Now I wish to return and search for my Padawan." Qui-Gon finished his report. After a few minutes of silence Master Yoda spoke.

"Go you must. A disturbance in the force I feel." Qui-Gon bowed.

"Thank you Masters." He said as he left the council chamber.

Outside the council chamber Tahl waited for Qui-Gon. As he left Tahl walked into step next to him.

"Are you all right Qui-Gon?" She asked. Qui-Gon glanced at her.

"As all right at I can be at the moment." Tahl nodded. She knew how close Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan were. They had one of the strongest Master/Padawan bonds in the temple. Tahl smiled as she remembered back to only two years ago when Qui-Gon was unwilling to take Obi-Wan back as his apprentice. In the end Qui-Gon had taken Obi-Wan back and their bon became stronger then ever.

Tahl had only recently taken a Padawan learner Bant. Though she had she that she would never take one. Her bond with Bant was not as strong as Qui-Gon's bond with Obi-Wan but she hopped that would change over the years. "Can you feel him through the force?" she asked. Qui-Gon nodded.

"I can feel his force presences but it is weak." Qui-Gon said. " I'm heading back to Talitha to find him." Qui-Gon bowed then began to walk towards the landing platforms. Tahl hurried to catch up to him.

"Qui-Gon!" She called He stopped and turned to face her. "You're not going alone." She stated. " Bant and I shall help you." Qui-Gon began to protest. He to had felt the disturbance in the force and didn't want anything to happen to Tahl or Bant. He knew he was being a little over protective since Tahl was blinded during a mission but he wouldn't worry so much if she didn't feel she had to prove that that she was just as capable as she was before she became blind. Tahl must have sensed his thoughts.

"Qui-Gon I'm not doing this to prove anything. Obi-Wan is Bant's friend she does not want to sit by and do nothing." Qui-Gon hesitated for a few seconds. In the back of h is mind something was telling him not to let them come with him but the resolution in Tahl's sightless green and gold eyes told him she would not take no for an answer.

"Meet me at the landing platform in an hour." He said

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

In the dense forests of the planet Leda two figures holding weapons quietly made their way through the forest. They kept alert not only searching for prey but also predators.

"Lukas how long have we been out here?" Damia Kulman asked her younger brother. Lukas looked over at her and shrugged.

"About Three hours I think." He said. Damia sighed in frustration.

" Three hours of hunting and we have not found a thing."

"Maybe we're going about this the wrong way." Lukas said and then began to call out " Here dinner, dinner, dinner" Damia shook her head.

"Lukas, do me a favor."

"Sure."

"Shut up!"

They walked in silence a little while longer until Lukas thought that he saw something in the near by shrubs. He walked over to the shrubs. Then called to his sister.

"Um…Damia I think I found something!" He called. Damia sighed in frustration. Lukas was finding stupid little things. She usually put up with it but right now she was tired, hungry and hot and in no mood for games.

"Lukas if it isn't something we can cook up for dinner…" She trailed off when she reached where Lukas was and looked down.

"You could probably cook it but I don't think you'd want to." He said.

"Oh my God." Damia said kneeling down next to the body of a boy who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen, with short spiky ginger hair. She checked his vitals. He was alive. She lifted his head. She felt something sticky on her hands when she looked there was blood on them. There was a gash in the back of the boy's head. She turned to her brother.

"Run back to camp and get some help!" He hesitated for a moment. "Hurry!" Damia told him and he went off towards the direction of camp.

Obi-Wan's eyes fluttered opened. His eyesight was a little hazy so he could not make out his surroundings. He was about to site up when he felt a hand gently push him back down.

"Easy. You have a nasty bruise in the back of your head. I don't think your ready to get up yet." A female voice said. His eyesight cleared a bite and he found that he was in some sort of tent. He looked over to his left and saw a woman in her early with short dirty blond hair and brown eyes sitting at his bedside.

"Where am I?" He asked. Turning his head towards the woman but even that slit movement made his head feel like it was going to explode.

"Your on the planet Leda." The woman said.

"How did I get here?" Obi-Wan asked.

"My brother Lukas and I were hunting and we found you lying on the ground. You were unconscious and had a gash on you head so we brought you back here." She said and extended her hand. "I'm Damia Kulman. What's your name?" Obi-Wan shook her hand then thought for a moment, searching for that piece of information. When suddenly it dawned on him.

"I can't remember." He said confused. Damia looked at him

"You can't remember your name?" he nodded. "Okay well what do you remember?" Obi-Wan thought again.

"Nothing! I can't remember anything!" He said beginning to panic.

"Calm down!" Damia said then sighed. "That gash on the back of your head must have caused your loose of memory." Obi-Wan felt the back of his head. There was a bandage over the wound.

Damia was at a lose as of what to do. She had thought he was from one of the other tribes but he didn't have any markings. Damia had hoped when he awoke she could ask where he was from but at the moment that seemed impossible.

"At least we found him before the Cumi did." She thought out loud.

"Who are the Cumi?" Obi-Wan asked.

"The Cumi are a race of humanoids who have waged a war against the humans of this planet." Damia said

"Why?"

" No one really remembers what the original disagreement was. The Cumi came here many, many years ago. At first the humans and Cumi lived in peace but then something happened. The Cumi seized control of the government and began to hunt down humans. We had to evacuate our homes and now are constantly on the move so as not to be captured. That's why I said it was good we found you. If they had found you one of three things would have happened. 1. They would kill you on sit. 2. They would take you to one of their camps where you would most likely be killed or 3. You would be sold as a slave. Out of those the first one is the best." She got up from her seat. 'I have some chores to finish. Maybe later I could show you around." Then she left the tent. A few seconds later she came back in. " Hey what do you want me to call you?" She asked

"I don't know you pick a name" Obi-Wan said. Damia thought for a second

"How about Inck?" Damia offered. Obi-wan shot up an eyebrow

` "You've got to be kidding." He said. Damia laughed.

"All right. All right. How about Benjamin?

"Benjamin?"

"Yeah Benjamin, Ben whatever. It's an old-fashioned name. Means blessed." Obi-Wan nodded

" Ben. I like it."

"All right I'll see you later then Ben."
