......
Obi-Wan lay in bed. He couldn't sleep. It was the middle of the night. His room was dark in the infirmary he wanted to walk but he was told to stay in his room. He glanced up to the corner of his room. There was a small vent out of reach with out a chair and it was pretty small. He wondered if he could fit in it. But it didn't matter. He had to stay in this room. He closed his eyes again.
He heard a knock at his door. He sat up. "Come in."
Nothing happened. No one came in.
Well maybe they didn't hear him. "You can come in." Knock, Knock. "I said come in." He said louder. Still nothing.
Maybe he door had been accidentally locked. Obi-Wan got out of bed and went over to the door. He turned the handle. It wasn't locked. Opening it he saw 'him' standing in the door way. Obi-Wan slammed the door and locked it. Looking around he saw the vent. He grabbed a chair and climbed up. He ripped the grate off and climbed in. It was just barely large enough for him. He began to frantically scurry through on his belly. He knew that the door wouldn't hold 'him' at bay for long. Finally he came to the end of the vent. He kicked the grate off and slid out and fell onto the ground. He looked around. He saw bodies with pure white eyes staring at him. He backed away slightly then began to run. He ran through the nearest door he could find.
On the other side of the door was a destroyed city. Coruscant was in shambles. The flood HAD come. From what he could tell it was fairly recent. He stepped off the stairs and into the rain. He heard a noise behind him. They had followed him. Their eyes staring at him. He began to run.
The creatures were quick on his heels. He continued running and tried to lose them. Turning and turning to try and throw them off. But they were still after him.
He was coming to a building from an alley. He turned and hid behind a broken box. The creatures looked around for him then went on. He was safe...for now.
He stood and went on to try and find safety.
He didn't know where he was. He wandered wet and frightened.
He came near a newly made river because of the tsunami, or the flood, or wherever the water came from. The water was black. So was the rain. He felt like he was being drenched in ink. He needed to find shelter.
He found a broken down building and went inside. No one was there, so far as he could tell. The lights were out. He found the light switch and the dark room was illuminated.
Staring back at him was the man. Obi-Wan turned the light off and fled the building. He was twenty feet away to see the man casually walk out of the building. He had an angry look on his face. His eyes were pure white and his skin gray. The man turned toward him and began walking after him.
Obi-Wan didn't want to stick around. He turned and fled. He was running anywhere he could.
He turned a corner out of an alley and saw the building. The same one in his dream. He began to climb the rubble to get to the top. He stood on the top getting his footing. He looked behind him. Nothing was there. Had he lost 'him'? or was 'he' just waiting?
Obi-Wan looked down still getting his footing and balance. The water was black. He saw a cloud of feathers. 'No'. He tried to back away but lost his footing momentarily he grabbed the broken pole next to him to steady himself. The inky rain was making the area slippery and hard to stand on. The body rose from the water and reached for him. She grabbed his arm and pulled him. He felt himself fall.
In a flash of light she was gone and he was falling off of the top of the Jedi temple. How had he gotten here? He gasped and just as he though for sure he'd fall to his death he felt an arm around his waist. He turned and saw the man. He screamed and kicked. Obi-Wan slipped and felt himself fall. A hand grabbed his. He looked below himself and saw the black water and the woman pulling at his feet. He kicked and screamed. The thunder sounded and the lightning flashed.
"Obi-Wan!" He felt himself being yanked up onto the building. He landed on something warm. When he opened his eyes he was in the lap of his master. He was on the roof of the temple again. How had he gotten here? He was being chased wasn't he? It wasn't a dream was it? He didn't sleep walk! He searched his master's eyes for an answer to his questions but only found sheer worry and fright. Qui-Gon was afraid? Had he seen 'him' too?
Qui-Gon sighed and pulled Obi-Wan into his arms.
"M-m-master?" Obi-Wan's voice was broken up and sore.
"Come on. Let's get you inside then we'll sort this out." Qui-Gon said standing up.
Obi-Wan looked to the edge. Was she there?
Qui-Gon lifted Obi-Wan into his arms. He didn't trust the boys legs on this wet roof especially if he's going to try and jump off of it.
...
Back in the infirmity the medics and healers kept an extra eye on Obi-Wan in case he tried to escape again. They didn't understand it. They heard him call to allow someone to enter. But no one was at his door. Then eventually he went to door and opened. He looekd as though he saw a ghost and slammed the door.
When they went to check on him the door was locked and when they finally got in he was gone and the grate of the vent had been ripped off.
They put an alert out for him. He had been spotted a few halls over and was pursued but was soon lost.
It wasn't until someone saw him on the roof that they knew where he was. IfQui-Gon hadn't gotten up there as fast as he did Obi-Wan would be dead at teh bottom of the temple. They didn't think he was suicidal just confused, possibly hallucinating.
They had him on such strong sleep meds that he wasn't going anywhere.
Qui-Gon told him what happened and Obi-Wan looked at him as though his master was the one with the hallucinations. How could he not have seen 'him'?
Qui-Gon also told him that they would have to enter him mind to help him. Obi-Wan went back to telling them he wasn't crazy. They reassured him they knew this, but they were beginning to wonder.
