[AN] Sorry I have a really bad attention span today.. its taken me about 3 hours to finally sit down and write one sentence. reminded me of Spongebob when he's trying to write a paper for boating school... procrastination.

oh and for the record I stole some of the names from some random manga's . but its only mentioned names no crossovers.. just took the names... You might recognize them. Hikaru and Kaoru... Ritsuka as the last name. I don't own ANYTHING in this story accept maybe the concept... but thats about it.... XD

okay now for the real story.

...

Clee Rhara and Kit Fisto sat with the two infants in their arms. Hikaru, older by only a few minutes and Kaoru the youngest and most petite, Ritsuka, slept peacfully in the arms of the two Jedi Masters. The two were from the planet of Hahlow, a cursed and shunned planet. The parents of the children asked the Jedi to protect the infants from a bounty-hunter who wanted revenge on the family. The Jedi agreed. It wasn't until they were on their way back that the two showed sensitivity to the Force. Their names would be changed to hide their identity, even from each other. However people from Hahlow were often extremely powerful and it didn't surprise Clee if the two should find out before the Council saw fit to tell them.

Once they returned to Coruscant the infants were taken immediately to a secret room where the Council had assembled for the meeting. There was to be no record of the boys' original names or whereabouts.

"Hikaru Ritskua, is sensitive to the Force." Clee began

"As is Kaoru." Kit added indicating the child in his arms.

Mace Windu held Kaoru in his arms. "Their names should be changed."

"We've already thought of that." Kit said looking to Clee who had been the most creative when coming up with names.

"Hikaru shall be Garen Muln and to make things a bit more confusing we say that he should be called younger than Kaoru who will be Obi-wan Kenobi." Clee offered.

Mace nodded agreeing to the idea of switching the ages. The identical twins starred up at the masters. Although they were identical there were still some differences.

"Have we decided what planets they will originate from?"

"Hika-... Garen will be from Coruscant and Obi-wan will be from Alderaan." Kit said taking Obi-wan back from Mace.

Mace nodded. "Don't tell Qui-gon about these two. You know how he is."

The two nodded and left to fill out the papers required for the two. .

...

Obi-wan was four years old he didn't really have any friends accept for Garen. They had a strange connection that he couldn't explain. He asked Garen but he wasn't sure about it either. They were loners for a long time, and were always together even when the council didn't seem too keen on it. But Obi wan needed to be close to Garen. They understood each other.

...

Obi-wan was eight years old and Garen was Seven, Bant was seven also, Reeft was the same age as Garen about. They had all become recent friends. Obi-wan valued them very much. Athough Obi-wan was the eldest Garen seemed more mature than Obi. Garen always knew what was going on. Obi-wan knew why. Garen was always watching. Their connection grew stronger over the years. When they were five and six years old they learned they could communicate with each other through a special bond. They only ever told Bant about it. But Garen thought it wise that they should talk to Master Yoda about it.
One afternoon the two went to him and told him about their bond and their connection and wondered why it was only between them.

Yoda sighed and told them that they had to promise to keep it a secret fro many and all. The two looked at each other understanding that it wasa serious issue, not sure why yet but they understood. The agreed and Yoda told them of their origins. Garen took it easier than Obi-wan. Garen almost expected it. Obi-wan was more surprised than anything else. He hada brother in the temple and had always had him. If he wasn't so happy about it he might be angry that it was kept from them.

/They had to Obi you heard him/
/Yeah I know. But still I guess I've always hoped and now I just wish I knew earlier/
/Me too. But remember No One can know/
/Don't worry no one will! Ever!/

While they spoke through their bond Yoda watched them with a soft smile. These two would amount to great things. "When communicating show it you must not." Yoda advised.

The two nodded, understanding the consequences. The two later found out that Bant had over hear their conversation and vowed that she would tell no one. .

...

-Present Day-

Qui-gon watched as his apprentice and Clee and Tahl's Apprentices played in the water. Garen had grown taller than Obi-wan by a slight inch and Bant was catching up. For that Garen was doing better in the water with his longer legs than Obi, although Obi was still doing fine. and Bant was made for water so she was used to beating Obi in races.

The two boys dove underwater and stayed down there for a few second before resurfacing. Obi was the first to break surface. Qui-gon took a closer look, no it wasn't Obi-wan. it was Garen. Obi broke surface then and laughed about something Garen had said. How could he confuse his own apprentice for another and vice versa. The two looked a lot alike but Garen's features seemed more mature while Obi's were softer. They even had a connection of some kind. The two were almost inseperable. Bant was always with them also but the two were almost always together when they weren't on missions.

Obi-wan had a book shelf that was missing a level. Garen often sat there and read while Obi did his homework or while he waited for Obi to come in. He was always welcome to go into Obi's room whatever the time was. This made Qui-gon a bit suspicious as to why the two were so close. He'd have to talk to Obi-wan later about it. He'd been meaning to lately.

Slowly he stood from his place on a bench and went to meditate on how to approach the subject tonight.
