Qui-Gon walked into the Healers' room where Anakin Skywalker was. He smiled at the healer on duty, a young apprentice named Salimah. She bowed to him.
"Greetings Master Jinn, are you here to see Anakin?"
"Yes, Salimah. Where is he?"
"He got a little fussy, so Master Careen took him for a walk, while she visited other patients. She'll be back soon." she answered, bowing again as she returned to her work on the computer. Sitting down Qui-Gon waited patiently for Master Careen to return. While he waited he thought about, the two newest people in his life. He had felt his padawan's flash of jealousy when he had comforted Linnaria and knew that Obi-Wan was attracted to the girl. In fact, ever since Obi-Wan had mentioned the connection he had been toying with the idea that perhaps they were soulbonded. From what he could see that was indeed a possibility. He thought of Linnaria, how protective she was of her little brother, she had been ready to refuse the Council, if they would not let her stay with him. The little boy certainly was lucky to have such a loving sister, who loved him so much that she was willing to give anything to protect him and keep him safe, healthy and happy. It had touched him that morning when the girl had given up the jacket, just so her brother could get a treat. He turned his head towards the door and stood up as Master Careen entered, with Anakin running ahead of her. The little boy stopped in front of him and looked up at him, craning his neck.
"Hello! Where Linn?"
"Your sister is resting. Are you having fun?"
"Yep! Like you, you nice. Play?"
"I'm afraid I don't know what we could play?" Qui-Gon smiled as he answered, watching as the little boy bit his lower lip and thought. He grinned as the boy suddenly brought his head up grinning wildly.
"Play spaceship!"
"Spaceship? I've never heard of that game." Qui-Gon could not help but chuckle at the amazed look the boy had on his face.
"Never heard spaceship! It easy! You pick me up, and swing me round and round, until dizzy!" he finished, giggling and holding out his arms. Qui-Gon grinned and picked the boy up, following his instructions and spinning him around. After awhile he stopped and sat holding a laughing Anakin in his arms. The boy grinned at him and pushed a piece of blond hair from his eyes.
"That fun! You better then Linn. She not so tall!" he said, but then he blinked and yawned. Immediately Master Careen swooped down.
"Come on Anakin, you need to sleep. Your sister is resting and so should you!"
"But not tired" the three year old protested, ignoring the fact that he was yawning again. Master Careen smiled and picked him, placing him in the bed. He smiled as Anakin snuggled under the covers and was almost immediately in asleep. Standing up and frowned when he felt his padawan start suddenly and probing him he got the feeling that he was listened to some whispered conversation. He frowned slightly again and then reached out for his padawan.
*Obi-Wan what is it?*
*Master, I need to talk to you.* was he said and then Qui-Gon was shut off the line.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Qui-Gon looked up as he felt his padawan and Linnaria enter, they were walking together and he was struck by how natural they looked together. A vision flashed before his eyes of Linnaria and Obi-Wan kneeling facing each other as the Council stood behind them. He shook his head, and smiled at them.
"Hello padawan, hello Linnaria. I thought you were going to sleep?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. Linnaria blushed slightly and then glanced at Obi-Wan as if prompting him. Obi-Wan looked back at her and then nodded slightly. Qui-Gon probed his padawan, concerned because he was blocking him from a portion of his mind.
"Master, can we talk to you privately?" he asked, glancing at the young healers' apprentice that was sitting working at something on the terminal. Qui-Gon nodded, suppressing a frown he followed them into an adjacent room. Shutting the door Obi-Wan turned to him.
"Master, you know how I mentioned the connection I felt with Linnaria." asked his padawan. Qui-Gon nodded, he had his suspicions, but had wanted to be a little bit surer then he was now. Obi-Wan continued, "Well, after you left I meditated like you told me to and I had a vision. I know it was a vision, not just a daydream or" he paused and grinned at Linnaria, "wishful thinking. Master, I had a vision of Linnaria. She was older, in her twenties and was speaking to me. She placed her hand on her abdomen and said something."
"What did she say?" Qui-Gon had a feeling that he already knew, but asked anyway. He watched silently as Obi-Wan once again glanced at Linnaria who looked down.
"She said 'He'll be beautiful Obi-Wan, and a powerful and great Jedi, just like his father.'. Master, I know that this was a vision of the future." Obi-Wan said as he moved to stand next to Linnaria and grabbed her hand. He could feel that they were nervous and he bit back the urge to laugh. What? Did they think hat he was going to have them kicked out of the Jedi Order! He knew for sure now that they were soulbonded; that they were meant to be. In a true sense, no matter what they would have found each other, even if one of them was about to die. He looked up at them and smiled.
"Obi-Wan calm down, I'm not going to get mad. In fact I already suspected what I believe you two are trying to tell me. You two are soulbonded."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Obi-Wan breathed an unconscious sigh of relief, he knew know that he was right, Linnaria was his soulmate. He smiled at her, and was rocked backwards when she slammed into him, hugging him tightly. And he lost all conscious thought when she pressed her lips to his. He came out of it though when he heard his master clear his throat. Turning back to his master, Obi-Wan kept Linnaria in his arms.
"What do you think the Council will say?" asked Linnaria looking up at him, she still had a trace of a blush. And after that kiss he could feel everything she felt or thought. And he new it was the same for him with her.
"This will actually probably work in your favor, Jedi are always loathed to split up a soul bonded pair. And you both are very powerful in the Force, later on you would make a wonderful team." answered Qui-Gon smiling at them. Obi-Wan nodded in agreement, some of the most famous jedi in history had been bonded pairs. Linnaria glanced at him again and then returned her gaze to Qui-Gon.
"Yet another question, when do we tell the Council?" she asked raising her eyebrow.
"How about right now" Obi-Wan suggested, "It would probably be the best time."
Obi-Wan smiled as the other two nodded and then tugged on Linnaria's hand pulling her with him. He grinned as he heard Qui-Gon's voice in his head.
*You do realize you're not moving in together, don't you!*
*Of course, we can wait until one of us gets our own place!* he answered, laughing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Linnaria glanced at Qui-Gon, she was really glad that he had agreed with them in that they had a soulbond. Ever since Qui-Gon had comforted her, she entertained the idea that maybe Qui-Gon could a sort-of replacement dad for her and Anakin. She smiled to herself as she reached out for Obi-Wan and really didn't have to reach at all. He was just there, she could feel everything that he was, what made him different then anybody else. She knew his fears, his sadness, everything and personally she thought it was the greatest thing in the world.
*So do I*
She started slightly upon hearing his voice in her head.
*Sorry Obi, I'm not used to this mind stuff.*
*I understand, don't worry after awhile it'll become second nature.*
*Thanks Obi. I'm nervous how do you think the Council will react?*
*Well, Yoda will stroke his chin, lean forward and then ask 'how feel do you?', Master Windu will say that know that they know this you cannot leave the Temple and Knight Mundi will continue that you will need to be trained as a Healer. We will be asked various questions and then Master Yoda or Master Windu will announce that they need to convene to discuss possible Master's for you.* answered Obi-Wan, joking to try and ease Linnaria's nervous state.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Linnaria laughed at that and then smiled again. Obi-Wan smiled back basking in the sense that was Linnaria, he could she her joy and thankfulness that she had a soulmate like him and he of course felt the same way. They walked quietly simply enjoying the knowledge that never again would they ever be alone no mater how much they wanted to in the future. His master paused when they reached the Council Room doors.
"Are you sure you wish to inform them now?" he asked and Obi-Wan knew that he thought they should but wanted them to make up their own mind. So Obi-Wan nodded his agreement as Linn spoke.
"We need to tell them, it's nothing we should be ashamed of."
Smiling Qui-Gon reached up and pressed the bell, almost immediately the doors opened and the three walked in.
"Again here are you?" asked Yoda, "What for this time?"
"Master Yoda, Council members, my padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi and Linnaria Skywalker have something which they feel they need to inform you of." answered Qui-Gon stepping back and motioning for the two to step forward.
"What is it?" asked Master Adi Gallia smiling at the two. She had liked what she had seen of the young girl and knew that the girl had not had enough kindness in her life.
"Masters, Linnaria and I are soulmates" said Obi-Wan, and then smiled slightly at Linnaria. The Council was quiet and then much to Linnaria's amusement things happened exactly the way Obi-Wan had said they would.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As soon as they had exited the Council Room Linnaria had burst out laughing holding onto Obi-Wan for support she laughed until she had tears in her eyes. Obi-Wan was a little more self-contained managing to keep it down to a quirky smile. Linnaria sobered when a passing Jedi Knight stared at them as if they were crazy. Smiling she looked at Qui-Gon who was watching them with a raised eyebrow.
"Inside joke?" he questioned
"Yep, Obi's getting really good at predicting the future" she answered, smiling at her soulmate. She sighed then and c=blinked her eyes, she wavered on her feet and managed a rather sleepy smile and Obi-Wan put his arm around her.
"You my dear are exhausted and don't even try to deny it I can feel it and it's starting to make me want to fall asleep!" scolded Obi-Wan and Linnaria giggled her sounded Janya after she had gotten into that particular fight with Jezren, trying to make light of a situation when they were some what worried.
"Then with your permission I will be heading to bed and you are not allowed to meditate, last time you woke me up!" she answered him shaking her finger at him and heading for her room. Obi-Wan laughed and glanced at his master.
"Go on tuck your soulmate in and then meet me at our usual dueling room."
Nodding Obi-Wan ran to catch up with Linnaria who was almost to the open lift.
