1. Midnight at the fountain room

Scream. That was all he heard as he ran threw the halls of the palace. He was looking in every room to find the source of the screams. The screams came from a room at the end of the hallway. The door looked like it was kicked in and had been knocked off of its hinges. He slowly and quietly as he could walked into the room to see what was hurting so badly. The first thing that he noticed was the scent of blood that filled the room. Large blood stains covered the carpets and some areas of the walls in the corner. Inside was a man holding a bloodied whip in his hand. He watched as he brought down the whip onto a small figure that was lying on the ground, covered in blood. Another scream came from the figure lying on the ground as the man whipped it again. He made to stop the man but he heard him before he got to her. All he saw was deep yellow eyes before he faded to darkness.

Obi-wan awoke with a gasp. He looked around wildly with short shaky breaths. His face and body were covered in cold sweat and was shaking very badly. After a few minuets, he began to calm down. He sighed and layed his head back on his pillow and tried and failed to go back to sleep. The screams and crys of that person on the ground still echoed in his ears. The mans yellow eyes forever burned in his minded. Who was that man? Who was that person on the ground? Why was that person being hurt? Why did that man have a bloodied whip? All of these questions filled his mind making his head hurt. This had been the third or fourth time that he had this dream this week alone. He would have this dream six or seven times in one week at times. The time that shown on his wall clock showed 1:30 in the morning. He knew that he would not be able to fall back asleep after the nightmare, so he dressed in his normal tunic and walked out of his room and down to the room of a thousand fountains to meditate .He needed some time to think. During the day the fountain room was very pretty. Sunlight streaming threw the glass windows created rainbows from the spray of the fountains, but at night it was beautiful. Most nights were clear, allowing the moonlight to stream through the windows. Not making rainbows, but at night most of the fountains were turned off, but some stayed on all day all night. The fountains that were turned off allowed the moonlight to dance in the still water while the ones that were on put out a light spray of water. No one was ever here at 1 or 2 in the morning allowing Obi-wan to be left in peace for a few hours. Most nights he would only walk around til his mind was clear before heading back to his room for the night. Tonight through, he would meditate by a fountain near the window. He was going to find out what these dreams were no matter what. He was going to speak with Master Yoda tomorrow. Maybe he could understand what was going on.
