Chapter 10:

It was as if everything that had ever happened to Hailey in the past had suddenly vanished over night. When Luke greeted his daughter, Obi-Wan, and the twins upon their arrival on Courscant, he felt nothing but Hailey's happiness. The Hailey of old had returned after being locked away for so long. And Luke knew exactly who had brought about this drastic change.

"Daddy!" Hailey cried running up to her father and embracing him. "I missed you so much!"

Luke hugged his daughter tightly and told her that he missed her as well. He then greeted Obi-Wan and the twins. The group made their way to the transport from the landing platform.

"Where's mom?"

"At the Jedi complex. Oh Obi-Wan, Cilghal needs to run a few more tests on you. And I believe that Qui-Gon wants to meet with you as well."

Obi-Wan nodded his response to the older Jedi Master. Luke smiled back at him. He had known putting Hailey and Obi-Wan together would be a very good thing. And it certainly was looking that way.

While Cilghal and Hailey were running the last set of tests on Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, Luke and Mara were watching over the twins as they worked on the saber techniques with another group of children about their age.

"You should see her Mara. She is radiant and happy." Luke said with a great sigh of relief.

"Is it because of him?" Mara asked.

"I believe it is. They both had that twinkle in their eyes."

Mara smiled. "Good."

"Hailey look at this." Cilghal said thrusting the report in front of the younger Jedi.

She and Hailey were finishing up all the medical documentation on Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon. Cal Omas had requested it, since they both had been frozen in carbonite for so long. Also the Jedi council had requested it as well. And it had taken almost two months to get all the information together.

It would have been sooner, but as soon as Hailey, Obi-Wan and the twins arrived on Courscant the first time after the side trip to Naboo, they were went out again to check out some mysterious activity on the far outer rim. And it didn't surprise Hailey to learn that Lady Adrella was causing all sorts of trouble as well as her new apprentice, a Darth Lyanus. And after a month of planet hopping, they hadn't come up with anything. So they headed back to Courscant.

Hailey took the report and looked it over. Her eyes grew big as she gasped. She quickly got up and headed for the door.

"Where are you going?" Cilghal asked.

"To find Master Qui-Gon."

After their tests were complete, Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon decided to spend sometime talking about things. Ever since they had been found, neither of them had spent much time with the other. And it was an odd situation for the former Master and apprentice.

"I see you've decided to follow your heart," Qui-Gon said trying not to embarrass the younger Jedi too much. But that didn't go over as well as he wanted it too. Obi-Wan was turning bright red next to him. Qui-Gon laughed slightly.

"Obi-Wan it's nothing to be embarrassed about." Qui-Gon said gently placing a hand on Obi-Wan's shoulder.

"I know Master. But it's still so new to me. I've never shared these types of feelings with anyone else before."

Qui-Gon smiled softly. "It will all turn out fine Obi-Wan. Just continue to listen to your heart."

"Master you said that you had been in love before. Is that correct?"

"Yes it is. She was so beautiful."

"But didn't the council find out?"

Yet before Qui-Gon could answer Obi-Wan, Hailey came storming around a corner making a beeline straight for them.

"Master Qui-Gon I need to speak to you alone. Right now!" she demanded as she stood in front of the two Jedi, who happened to tower over her.

Without argument, Qui-Gon and Hailey took off in a different direction leaving Obi-Wan to wonder what was going on.

"Just when were you planning on telling him?" Hailey demanded.

Qui-Gon sighed as he sat on a bench with Hailey standing in front of him. He knew that this information would surface sooner or later. He just wasn't expecting it to be in this way.

"I was going to tell him eventually. But our Jedi council had forbidden Obi-Wan from ever knowing. He wasn't even supposed to be my apprentice no matter how much I wanted him to be. It was Master Yoda who finally saw that it would be beneficial to both of us after what happened with my first apprentice. But still I was forbidden from ever telling him the truth."

Hailey gently began rubbing her temples, trying to figure out what to do about this sticky situation. She didn't know if she should go to her father or to Cal Omas or simply blow the entire thing off and seal that part of the report. But even then she would need the Jedi Council's permission. Or…

"Here's what I'll do. This is the only part of the report that reveals that you are Obi-Wan's biological father. Nothing else does. And the only other person to know this besides myself is Cilghal. We can seal that one part of the report for a small amount of time. We've done it once before after Hannah died. But you have to tell him! I can't keep this from him."

"I will tell him. But let me do it, please. He has a right to know why. I also know that it's going to be hard on him as well as myself."

Hailey agreed with that.

"You know that he still loves her and will do anything to get her back, even though he loves you as well."

"I know Denka." Lady Adrella said.

"This is all part of your plan isn't it?"

Lady Adrella turned and smiled evilly. "Yes it is. I know that he only wants to be with her one time. And I will allow that, but I can provide him with power and wealth. Besides seeing her with that Kenobi, has fueled his anger beyond belief. That is what is driving him now."

"But will that be enough?"

"Yes Denka it will. Soon the Jedi will fall and the Sith will rise again."
