Author: Ewan's girl


Chapter X:

Storming through the halls, not caring who saw him, Obi Wan Kenobi searched for the Emperor. His knuckles grew white from clenching his light saber so tightly. Storm Troopers tried to stop him, but each were cut down, one group blocked an entrance of a door, with one flick of his wrist Obi Wan sent a metal beam from the ceiling crashing on top of them, he simply walked over it.
He found himself in a huge, empty room. It looked like a training room of some kind. He could sense the dark side was all around him. He heard the cackling of Palpatine. He searched for the evil lord.
"Obi Wan, be mindful of your emotion." He heard the voice of Qui Gon tell him. "The force will guide you."
Obi Wan shook it off, the Jedi were all but extinct, and he didn't care if he died with them. The room was unsettling, you couldn't tell if you were coming or going.
"You're a relentless thorn in my side Kenobi." He heard the voice of the Emperor.
"You're afraid to show yourself!" He called back. "You always send the inferiors to destroy me, you want me that badly, then face me yourself!"
Laughter echoed through the room. "That's just it, I don't want you. You're just always in the way." The emperor taunted. "Story of your life isn't it Obi Wan? No one wants you." Obi Wan continued to search for the source of the voice, but with no luck. "Your family didn't want you, your master didn't want you..." Palpatine taunted.
"Show yourself!" Obi wan cried.
"Your padawan didn't want you, the queen of Naboo didn't want you, that whore She-ar-ah didn't even want you...and now, I don't want you." He continued.
Obi Wan desperately tried to ignore the taunts.
"Face it Obi Wan Kenobi, you're worthless. And because of your worthlessness you failed everyone that you ever cared about."
"Enough games Palpatine!" Obi Wan tried to find the Emperor, to silence him. Suddenly he began to hear voices echo through the room...familiar voices.
"He's headstrong, and has much to learn of the living force..." Qui Gon's voice stated.
Behind him he heard another voice. "I love both of you, but I chose Anakin." Amidala's voice rang out.
"It's your fault I'm like this!" The sound of his beloved padawan came from his right.
"Stop this!" Obi Wan began to tremble.
"Fuck you, and fuck the Jedi..." A females voice rang out.
"She-ar-ah?" Tears formed in his eyes.
"And you can tell Obi Wan that goes for him as well." Her voice finished.
"I take Anakin Skywalker as my padawan learner." Qui Gon's voice stated.
As the voices continued Obi Wan closed his eyes, he knew what the Emperor was doing, and Obi Wan was dumb enough to almost fall for it. He began to meditate, tried to call upon the force for help. The force calmed his nerves, and led him to Palpatine.
"What am I to do with you Kenobi?" The Emperor stated with a sigh. "You continue to surprise me."
"You killed the Jedi, and countless others. The Senate won't look too kindly at this Palpatine. I'm placing you under arrest." Obi Wan moved towards him.
Palpatine began to laugh. "Yes Obi Wan, but the Senate has no power anymore, I've seen to that. Plus, as far as anyone knows, you killed the Jedi. I mean you're all that's left, plus you did attempt to assassinate the Emperor. And if I remember correctly, did you or did you not leave your apprentice for dead?"
Obi Wan's eyes stared coldly at him.
"Things don't look too good for you Obi Wan." The Emperor said with a sickly smile on his face.
Suddenly Obi Wan found himself surrounded by armed guards.
"If only you knew the true power of the force." The Emperor claimed to him.
Obi Wan raised his saber; he was prepared to die. Suddenly, his light saber left his hands, and floated into Vader's. Obi Wan then watched in horror as Vader destroyed the one thing he still held onto from Qui Gon, his master's light saber that had been his for ten years now. Vader then walked towards Obi Wan with his red light saber blazing.
"No." Palpatine ordered. "I want him alive."
"Master? Is that wise?" Vader questioned.
"Yes, to kill him would give him what he wants...a way out." The Emperor stared at Obi Wan. "No, he must live with the pain of his failure. Because it is an agony that will haunt him forever. Lock him away, he is alone now." With that the dark lord laughed at the Jedi before him.
Storm troopers grabbed Obi Wan and began to lead him out.
"Our paths will cross again Vader, you know better than anyone that we have unfinished business Anakin! I will return. Someday we will return!" Obi Wan called out to his former apprentice, who just stood there watching his former master be drug out by soldiers, he deactivated his light saber.
