Chapter 1

Obi-Wan waited for the first strike from his opponent. All he could tell through the Force was that his opponent was a female human. He suddenly hoped it was Siri. She was the most beautiful creature in the world, he thought. His opponent brought him back into the world with a slash at his feet. "Obi-Wan, concentrate on the task at hand. Do not let your mind wander." Qui-Gon said quietly. Obi-Wan felt his and his opponent's heart rate grow. It /was/ Siri. Siri continued to slash at him, but he felt the hesitation. Siri sighed. Obi-Wan heard Siri's lightsaber click off and hit the floor. "Good, Obi-Wan." Qui-Gon announced. "Return to your quarters. You too, Siri." He walked off. "Siri, why did you back off like that?" Obi-Wan asked, even though he thought he knew why. "Because I've got to tell you something important." Siri answered. "I'll tell you about it later. Goodnight."
