A/N: I do NOT own Star Wars; all rights go to George Lucas.

Raven watched two figures, a blue and white saber breaking the eerie silence of the black void that surrounded the bridge the two fought on. By the two distinct colors of the sabers, Raven knew who they were. It was her and Obi-Wan, why were they fighting? The two were evenly matched as they fought, it looked just like a dance, the way her and Maul looked.

Her flurry of movements, though, seemed to be tiring out the younger Jedi as he suddenly left an opening in his guard. She stroke.

"No," Raven yelled from her position, and then something grabbed her throat in a choke – she was suffocating! Wake up Raven! She screamed in her head, not wanting to see the figure that would turn to her. She couldn't breath; she needed to wake up!

Looking into the other's face, yellow and red eyes glared at her.

"NO!"

The knife she hid underneath her pillow was in her hand and she threw it at the intruder that finally woke her. Maul merely tilted his head to the side, avoiding the sharp object that would've penetrated his skull. It slammed into the wall, embedding itself there as Raven got a hold of herself. By Maul's expression, this wasn't the first time that Raven woke up as such.

Her entire body trembled from her nightmare, and shivered from the light sheen of sweat that covered her into body. Beads of sweat slithered down her face to pull in the small crooks of her neck that her collarbone made. Her breaths came out in pants and she took in shuddering breaths in an attempt to slow her breathing and heart rate back down.

"Slept well, I take it," Raven was ready to yell at him to go do a certain activity in the confines of his own room, when an unsettling feeling washed over her.

She felt the blood drain from her body, and then she was out of bed in a tan blur. She slid into the refresher on the tile and it rubbed harshly against her knees. Raven threw open the toilet lid and then emptied out the nonexistent contents of her stomach. Her slender fingers grasped the clean toilet as she lurched once more, her eyes were tight shut so she didn't have to look at the contents that came up, but that didn't block out the smell. When Raven was done, she flushed the toilet, closed the lid and pressed her nose to the back of her palm to smell herself.

The fifteen year old would rather endure the smell of her sweat than vomit.

"Change," Maul stated simply, "Darth Sidious has another mission for you."

Raven watched him leave before going over to her knife, she tried to take it out of the wall, but her hand jerked back. She planted her foot on the wall to get it out, but the knife was stuck. Scowling, she gave up and just went and made her bed.

Grabbing her clothes, Raven returned to the bathroom to wash her face and change. As she scrubbed the morning grim off of her face, she froze at her facial expression.

No longer did a young pre-teen look at her with chubby cheeks and body fat on her arms, pudge stacked on top of love handles, and a big chest sticking out of the fat and catching every man's eye. Her hair was longer, went all the way to her lower back; she would always yank it up into a ponytail. She no longer had bangs, they had grown out and she had pushed them back with the rest of her hair. Her brown eyes seemed to finally fill out her face, and even Raven admitted that they were pretty. Her top lip was still thin, but her bottom lip had filled out into a natural pout. Her chest had gotten slightly smaller, because of the physical activity she was usually in; and with the smaller chest came the toned abs that peeked out from her tube top and no more love handles. Her body was just a complete killing and seductive machine.

In all, she had grown into a hot adolescent.

Raven still saw the imperfections though; her natural round face wasn't as pretty or delicate as a heart or square one. Her eyes were tilted at an angle slightly and her eyes were a boring brown color. Why didn't her top lip fill out, why just the bottom? She scowled at the top lips inability to pout out too. Her piercings hole had grown out and so the smooth cartilage only had a small straight scar where she used to wear jewelry. Her eyebrows had grown bushier because she had misplaced her tweezers; she thought she might have dropped them in the trash by accident.

Did Obi-Wan notice these new perfections? Did he see through the imperfections too? Blushing furiously at the thought of the young Jedi, Raven scrubbed her face roughly as though she could scrub away the thoughts that made her body tingle.

She quickly changed into her traditional black outfit and made her way to Darth Sidious' chambers.

- ? -

"Do you keep up with politics much, Serim," Darth Sidious asked.

The question confused the young apprentice, but Raven smoothly said, "No, my Master."

"Shame," he said, his nonchalance made Raven quizzical, but she didn't say anything and waited through the long silence that Sidious gave to collect his thoughts, "Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum wants to give the Trade Federation an increase in weaponary, in exchange for the Galactic Senate taxation of fee-trade zones."

Raven begged to keep her self-control and patience; what the Hell did this have to do with her?

"It will be held in Seswenna Hall in Eriadu City, on Eriadu," Darth Sidious continued, unbeknowest to his apprentice's quickly dying patience, "the Galactic Republic wants to show its dedication to the outlying sectors-"

"With all due respect, Master," Raven finally cut in, "what does this have to do with me?"

His red-yellow eyes glared at her for her outburst and Raven wished that she could shrink into an Endorian snail and hide in her orange and white shell so that she didn't have to see the boot that would crush her from her Master. But she kept her face neutral and her mind blank to her Master.

"Forgive me, Master," she said in a monotone.

"You will go there and attack the meeting being held here, your main goal is to kill Viceroy Hask; and make an attempt on Valorums – so that it looks like the Nebula Front is responsible, but Serim," Sidious said, "do NOT kill him."

"Yes, Master."

"And Darth Serim, do not expose us," Sidious instructed, "The time has not come just yet."

"Yes, Master," Raven said, unaffected by the name that she had been given; she still didn't feel anything for the name. No dedication, no loyalty or pride; but she didn't feel disgust or hate towards it either. It was just a name, something that they called her. In her mind Serim was just as plain as being called a droid number.

It simply didn't matter.

Obi-Wan walked calmly along side his Master, Qui-Gon Jinn, through the huge hallways of Seswenna Hall. The walls were huge and seemed to tower as they arced above the two Jedi's head; the walls were decorated with gold walls and brown patterns crawling up the roll but not quite reaching the ceiling. If the hallways were an example of beauty, than the room that the Eriadu Trade Summit was breathtaking. There was a round sitting area where the two main representatives would sit (in this case, Supreme Chancellor Valorum and Viceroy Hask), and then a large seating area around the smaller circle.

But what unnerved the young padawan the most, was the huge stain glass that covered the entire fourth wall that looked out to Eriadu City. He had heard about the Nebula Front, they didn't seem like that much of a threat, but having an entire window looking in on the meeting made Obi-Wan edgy.

"What's wrong, my young padawan," Qui-Gon asked as the room continued to fill with other important leaders who wanted to view the meetings conclusion, "you seem on edge."

"Huh, oh, nothing Master," Obi-Wan said absentmindedly as he and his Master took a seat in the far back corner, simple observers for this meeting, "just…feels like something is off."

"I sense it too," Qui-Gon assured, "keep your wits about you, Obi-Wan and focus on the here and now."

"Yes Master," Obi-Wan said.

Obi-Wan, though greatly amused by the other leaders fancy attire or headdress, couldn't seem to shake off the feeling as the meeting slowly started to begin. He kept his eyes scanning the room for any sign of something out of place.

And then he saw it, a flash of something.

Obi-Wan jumped to his feet and tried to get to the two in the middle – but he was too late, Viceroy Hask took the hit right to his head and his body crumbled to the floor, there was an uproar as three assassin droids came in at the main exit and started firing. Three more and a human crashed through the stain glass window, the human landed on the center table and stood, firing her weapon.

Obi-Wan tackled her to the ground and she fell, her blaster skidding across the floor as important leaders ran, screaming for their lives. Obi-Wan was whacked in the head by her foot, his head slammed into something soft, he then realized it was the assassin's large breasts.

Blushing furiously, for some reason he sat up once more and was ready to apoligize but a fist collided with his jaw, dazing him enough that she got up and jumped over the rush of people and out the door.

"Obi-Wan, after her," Qui-Gon yelled, "I can take it from here!"

Obi-Wan was up in an instant and followed her lead, but also destroyed an assassin droid as he flipped over him and then was out the door. The black clad seductress was acting as calmly as possible, walking down the hallway. As Obi-Wan ran to catch up with her, she heard his approaching footsteps and was running off once more too.

And thus the chase began, but no matter how fast Obi-Wan ran, the assassin seemed to be in much better shape. Turning sharply, he was glad that his Master had forced him to memorize the halls; he took the shorter route and skidded to a stop in an intersection. He turned to the way that she should've came, but saw no sign of the black clad sexy assassin. He frowned, and turned to the other hallways too; did he go the wrong way, was he mistaken?

"Blast it all to – oof!"

Putting his palms out so that he didn't split his lip, they smacked against the tile and he grunted in pain. He heard a curse above him and whatever that was on top of him quickly got up, when Obi-Wan saw the black ankle near his head he grabbed it and twisted his body. He then swooped his leg out to knock her down. She fell with a grunt and Obi-Wan spun on top of her, he grabbed her hands to stop her from getting away, and then he felt something wrap around his waist and she shoved up with her pelvis and knocked Obi-Wan off her. She finally got up, but Obi-Wan knew that if she started running once more, he wouldn't catch up to her.

Throwing himself forward, Obi-Wan flipped in the air and ignited his saber, he cut the floor at her feet and stopped her from running. She stopped and eyed him carefully, Obi-Wan wasn't too sure what she was up to. But didn't like how the Force was pulling around her, it made him even uneasy; she was debating on something, but what? She was weaponless…wasn't she?

She charged suddenly, and Obi-Wan's eyes widened in fear as he went for a final blow, but he watched in amazement as she ducked and pressed her body to his, Obi-Wan did the one thing that he could think of, he punched her; but in doing so her scarf came loose, and Obi-Wan looked onto the face of his attacker.

"Raven?"

If she had any reaction towards her identity being revealed, she didn't show it as she ignited her own white saber and crashed with his. Obi-Wan's throat was dry as his blue eyes looked into the glaring brown eyes that belonged to his friend. She shoved and spun and the two crashed sabers once more in a flurry of movement as the two fought.

Somehow the two managed to be up on a viewing bridge as the two fought, Obi-Wan went for an attack in her defense; but it was apart of her plan. She clamped her elbow down on his forearm, he attempted to slip his arm out, but found that he couldn't. She then kicked him, and spun so that she had his saber. She whirled back around to his fallen form, jumped on top of him, and crossed both sabers at his throat.

Obi-Wan froze, was this the end?

He saw her glaring down at him, her teeth clenched, which made her jawbone jut out as she flexed it a couple of times. He dared to not move, just a slight flick of her wrist and he would be dead; even when he was facing death, he couldn't help but look at her. She had grown from the two years that he knew her into the beginnings of a beautiful young woman.

Turning off both sabers, she suddenly picked him up and hoisted him to his feet and handed him his saber, "Don't follow me."

He was slightly aggravate that she saw him as no threat, she just turned her back on him and ran. Obi-Wan growled and started to run after her, but a commotion below him made him stop and return his gaze back down. Qui-Gon was having a bit of trouble defending the Chancellor and trying to destroy the assassin droids. With a sigh, Obi-Wan ran back down the labyrinth of hallways and back into the room to assist his Master.

Raven entered her ship with a heavy heart and set off to return to her Master. She slumped in her seat at the knowledge that Obi-Wan knew what she was. How would he react at Dex's Diner? Should she even show up? She felt miserable and she wasn't too sure what the feeling was, but it hurt, really badly.

"Ow," she whimpered quietly as she clutched her heart, a tear slid down her cheek. She touched the liquid and looked at the droplet on her finger and wonder and then brushed it away, but another fell from her other eye. Soon she was sobbing quietly and furiously rubbing at her eyes, trying desperately to get them to stop. The pain in her chest just seemed to intensify, and in some sort of an attempt to shield herself from the rest of the world, she hid underneath the control panel of the ship.

She wanted things to go back to normal. She wanted to be with her sister, and hold her on the nights that she could stay at the hospital. Raven would even take back her mother screeching at her for putting their family name to shame with her different looks. Raven, for a moment, just felt helpless and so alone; she was glad neither of her Masters was there to hurt her for such a reaction.

BAHAHA! Please review! I think there will only be two more chapters, maybe one? Depends...not too sure how far this will go. And then "Episode II" shall commence :D PLEASE REVIEW
