Obi-wan359-Thanks for your review! It's nice to know that we're not the only ones that find Shade adorable!

It didn't take Obi-wan long to convince Shade that he wasn't dangerous. As Obi-wan carried Shade down the hall, the boy cocked his head to one side, and considered Obi-wan.
"Who
you?" He asked, and Obi-wan chuckled.
"I'm
Obi-wan Kenobi." He laughed as the boy tried to say that several
times, and failed, finally giving up.
The flight there was interesting. Obi-wan fed Shade cake and then the boy vanished when he fell asleep. Qui-gon and Obi-wan figured out the Shade meant the Force when he spoke of the "Big Light". On this trip Shade renamed Qui-gon "Master" and Obi-wan "Student".
They arrived on the planet and met Felix the Governor, whose adoptive daughter was missing. After they had gotten settled into their quarters, Obi-wan managed to get Shade to go down for a nap. While Shade was asleep Obi-wan went to see if Qui-gon needed him. Both of them got a very powerful danger sense from Shade. They ran into the room where he had been sleeping, to find Shade being held up by a very large droid. They took care of the droid, and comforted Shade.
Qui-gon went to see if he could find Corinne. He left instruction that Obi-wan was to call him if there were any problems. He was not gone 20 minutes before there were problems. This time there were several droids that attacked. Obi-wan called Qui-gon and let him know that he and Shade had to leave their room. Out in the halls Obi-wan got himself caught by Felix. Shade was hiding in an alcove near by. Qui-gon came along shortly after. He convinced the rather unhappy Felix to let Obi-wan go. While this was going on Shade found Corinne and brought her to where Qui-gon was. Since Corinne was small Shade was able to hide both of them.
They
got to their ship and left but did not get very far before they were
attacked. Felix did not want to let Corinne go, since she was Force
sensitive. He also wanted to get his hands on Shade. They were force
to land their ship on the other side of the planet, so that they
could make some repairs.
Shade
watched intently over Obi-wan's shoulder as he worked on patching
the hull of the ship. Corinne was up with Qui-gon inside the ship.
"Hurry Student! Nasty machines come fast." Shade whispered, holding the end of Obi-wan's robe tightly.
"Go wait by the ramp Shade." Obi-wan ordered, wincing as he heard several thumps and bumps as Shade obeyed. Shade was very prone to tripping over anything in his path. He had just finished putting the patch on when he heard Shade cry out.
He whirled, and found a droid holding Shade up. Obi-wan yanked his light-saber off his belt, by before he could flick it on, it was grabbed from his hands with the Force. Governor Felix emerged from behind a rise with almost 2 dozen droids.
"So,
you've decided to enjoy my hospitality once more." Felix said,
with a false sincerity, studying Shade intently. The boy's form
flickered a few times as he tried to hide, but he was clearly too
tired and too scared to vanish completely. Obi-wan gathered himself
and Force-jumped high over the droids, summoning his light-saber.
He
landed next to the ramp, and grabbed Shade with one hand-the boy was
a dead wait in his arms, and looked to be unconscious. Obi-wan's
light-saber thumped into the palm of his hand, and as it did so, he
felt a sharp prick. He glanced down, and found that a tiny needle had
been attached to his light-saber.
Obi-wan sent an urgent call to Qui-gon as he realized he was already feeling woozy, and the droids were closing in. He manages to talk down two of them before falling into darkness.
