Note: Wow! Can you believe I got a chapter up during the week? A Monday (weel it was supposed to be up yesterday but...ahem, FanFiction apparently didn't like me last night....er) at that! Yay! I think...heh. Hope everyone is still enjoying this fic. This chapter is slightly odd and a bit boring cause I had to explain a few things. Remember to keep these 'things' in mind though. Remember read end note! Enjoy!

Ch. 12 The Line

What had he walked into? Obi-Wan looked around the area he was in. His senses were filled with agony, fear, pain, and death. He'd walked into some sort of hell. People, people with dead white skin, blue lips, and blood shot eyes, reached for him groaning and pleading for him to help. Obi-Wan could only stand there. He'd never seen such a thing.

Finally he did only what he could resort to, run. And he did run. He ran for an eternity, far into the depths of a dark forest where he could no longer hear the calls for help or smell the stench of decaying flesh. He was breathing hard as he stopped and turned around to look at the path he made the past. Then, an evil filled the air around him. Filled every thought in his mind and chilled every bone in his body. Turning to see what it was behind him he froze with a horrible feeling of dread and doom. As a last moment resort he did what came from natural instinct even if it would bounce off the walls boarding his mind from his master's he hollared with every ounce of the Force he could,

//MASTER!//

Then the evil came, and it came for him.

~~~~~~~~~~

Poishen only chuckled after Qui-Gon's demand. Qui-Gon stood but suddenly there was a flash of fear, untamed fear, and a cry for him and it made him sit again. Obi-Wan!

//Padawan! Obi-Wan!//

Qui-Gon tried to call back to him, touch his mind again but there was nothing but silence and emptiness.Qui-Gon was brought back to the present hearing Poishen laugh. He locked eyes with the creature and Poishen slowed his laugh to a chuckle as he said,

"You're too late now Jedi. He has him,and that dumb bitch won't know what hit her."

Anger threatened to over take the Jedi but he calmed slightly, enough to manage,

"If you know where my Apprentice is tell me now."

without lunging at the male.

"Well of course I know, but I won't tell.." Poishen grinned.

Qui-Gon reached out with the Force to his mind but slammed into a wall..much like the wall he had slammed into when he had tried to reach Jesi the day before. Interesting...he'd try another approach.

"What is it Quire wants?"

"His freedom."

"What's that got to do with Obi-Wan and Jesiana?"

"Don't forget yourself there Jedi...he'll be coming for you soon as well." "Why?" "He needs three Force senstives."

"Why?"

Qui-Gon could see he was beginning to irritate the male but that's exactly what he wanted.

"Because it's an uneven amount. 3 is odd, it forms a triangle..a triangle of power here. At the top is the past, at the bottom right is the light.."

Poishen drew an imaginary triangle on the table and pointed to the areas.

"At the bottom left is the stone. When the light shines, it's reflected to the stone, "

He motioned with his fin like hands.

"With that power is sent to the past which is made the present and he is free to do as he pleases, with his faithful subjects at side of course."

Qui-Gon looked at him.

"If I'm the stone, Obi-Wan's the Light, then Jesi is the past, correct?"

"Pinpoint."

"What happens if the sequence doesn't go as planned?" Qui-Gon pressed.

"Then it will backlash and instead of the light going to the stone it will go to the past."

"What happens then?"

"That is what you will find out Jedi." Poishen hissed.

Qui-Gon sighed aggravated. Suddenly a common sense thought told him exactly what he needed to know. Abrutly he stood and left the room not looking back, not seeing the grin on Poishen's face.

~~~~~~~~~

If he didn't know where he was before he really didn't know now. Obi-Wan looked around him noting that there was a stream of light decending from the ceiling to where he was. He could hardly see two feet infront of him. In the silence he heard something move. Turning towards the noise it seemed the area lit up a little more. He could hear his own breathing...but then he could hear another. Someone else was with him here."Hello?" He called just above a whisper. Again something moved. Slowly Obi-Wan began to make his way towards the noise. A figure began to appear, sitting against a wall was a person.

"..Do you know what you're worst fear is.."

The whisper moved from place to place throughout the cellar. Obi-Wan dared not answer.

"This."

An area of the cellar lit up suddenly and revealed something in Obi-Wan's worst nightmares. Propped up against the wall was the still body of Qui-Gon Jinn. A real dagger stuck out from his chest with a gold hilt. Obi-Wan stumbled back with a gasp when the Master moved his head suddenly to face him and scold,

"This is your fault Obi-Wan Kenobi, pathetic boy, this is because of you!"

Obi-Wan backed up till he could no longer and yet he never seemed to widen the area between himself and his master.

"No. I'm sorry! I didn't do anything!"

"Damn you Kenobi! Damn you!"

Qui-Gon continued as his skin whitened and started to decay right before his eyes.

"No!" Obi-Wan covered his eyes with his arms and slid down the wall.

~~~~~~~~~

Jesi looked up across the field.The wind had brought it.The sound.The scream of a terrified person. The worst thing was was that she knew that voice...it was Obi-Wan. She looked back the way she'd came thinking of the black wall. Did she create something more? She glanced down at the sleeping toddler in the grass below her.It was Reghan..but it wasn't Reghan..Just like Raiy was Raiy, but he was Raiy. Something was off..different. She hadn't felt that way with Obi-Wan.She'd known it was him yet that voice said no. Could she trust it? What if that horrible sight of Obi-Wan wounded would come true?!

Jesi closed her eyes attempting to clear her mind. Then a thought hit her..was she still in a dream, or was this reality? If it was a dream, what would happen when she woke up? And if it was real then what was happening to young Obi-Wan Kenobi? Taking a deep breath Jesi looked again at Reghan, then back out to where she knew in her heart Obi-Wan was. How could she possibly choose? She crossed her arms when a sudden breeze aroused and she knew what it was in the back of her mind.What was the right thing to do...just the question was did she have the will to do it?

Tbc....
