Qui-Gon rushed over to Obi-Wan who waved him off.
"It just grazed me."
"That's more than just a graze." He returned watching the blood seep into his Padawan's tunic.
Sage ran forward then cautiously bent down next to Garmandi. She checked his vital signs and shook her head. "He's dead." She said softly. She peered down the alley and squinted.
Qui-Gon followed her gaze to a familiar figure walking towards them.
"Brice?" He heard Obi-Wan ask, not trying to cover up his shock.
Qui-Gon stepped forward towards him. "What are you doing here?" he asked.
"And why did you-" Obi-Wan cut off and stared down at Garmandi and put a hand to his arm and held it over the gash.
"Because," Brice began in a chocked voice. "I realize what I have been doing. Besides almost killing my daughter I was hurting more than just her. I was hurting her friends and family. I realized you're more of a family than I am and ever will be." He turned to Sage, tears streaming down his cheeks. "Take good care of her."
Without another word he turned around and started back down the alley towards the street.
"I will." Sage whispered to the figure fading in to the shadows.

Obi-Wan felt lost. He had no clue as to what had just taken place. He looked up at his Master and was pleased to see he was almost as equally confused.
"Qui-Gon," Sage spoke up after a moment. "We need to get Z to the healers."
Obi-Wan watched as Qui-Gon nodded and sprinted off down the alley.
Sage turned to him and took out her comlink. "I need to contact the Healers and tell them we are on our way. Can you carry Zae-Non?"
Obi-Wan nodded and went over to Z. To his surprise her eyes were open and he could see the glint of a tear running down her pale face.
"It'll be ok." He reassured her.
He picked her up with a muffled gasp at the pain in his arm; he was surprised at her lightness and began to walk down the alley behind Sage who was talking with one of the healers.
He didn't pay attention to the conversation they were having or the ach that threatened to engulf his arm, but instead focused on the limp form in his arms. Z's connection to the Force was so weak and her eyes held in them the little strength she had left in her.
Shifting the girl in his arms, so his wound wouldn't cause him to drop her, Zae-Non's body suddenly went a little limper. Any more and she would have been like water running through his arms. Her eyes were closed and her breath was getting irregular. She began to shake involuntarily in the night air.
"Sage we've got to hurry!" Obi-Wan shouted, but no sooner had the words left his mouth, than did a beat up, half falling apart speeder come into the ally. Qui-Gon in the drivers seat.
"I thought I'd see if it still worked." He said with a slight smile. "Come on we've got to go."
Obi-Wan carefully placed Z in the front with Qui-Gon and jumped in the back with Sage. They took off towards the landing pad down the street.
Although it only took a few minutes before they saw their ship come into view it still felt like forever. Obi-Wan jumped out of the back as a bunch of healers who were waiting at the ramp stormed forward and lowered Z onto a hover bed and rushed her towards the ship.
"Obi-Wan are you OK?" Sage asked looking down at his arm.
Peering down he grimaced. "It'll be ok." Obi-Wan just then noticed how exhausted he was. "And I'm just really tired I guess." Four days without sleep had finally caught up.
The ship took off and strained its engines towards Courascant. Obi-Wan sat down next to Qui-Gon and let out a long sigh. Moving his arm he gasped.
"Just grazed you." He heard his Master say. "Obi-Wan?"
Not answering Obi-Wan closed his eyes too tired to answer.
Falling asleep next to Qui-Gon and Sage up in the pilot's room, Obi-Wan didn't hear all the shouting when Zae-Non's vital signs had stopped.
He had gotten onto the ship and collapsed into a chair not a worry in mind while soundly sleeping.
New Wave Of Life
Obi-Wan was shaken awake and let his tired eyes focus on his Master standing over him.
"We're back." He said.
"How's Z?" Obi-Wan asked, suppressing a yawn.
Qui-Gon just shook his head and made his way to the door.
Obi-Wan stood up slowly wishing he could collapse in the chair again. His arm ached from the blaster wound and felt he was too tired to walk. Looking down at his arm he saw a bandage. Someone must have tended to it when he was asleep. Gripping his hand over the bandage he winced as the ach became a sharp pain. Obi-Wan followed his Master to the ramp and shivered in the cool air.
He, Qui-Gon, and Sage walked out onto the landing platform and were met by Mace and Yoda. Sage bowed to Mace and Yoda then rushed inside. Zae-Non was obviously already there.
Obi-Wan stood to the side listening as Qui-Gon told them of the events that happened on Celsic. He was too tired to pay attention. He could barely keep his head up let alone his eyes open. He shifted his position to steady himself as he began to sway when Yoda stared at him with his wide eyes.
"Long journey you have had young Kenobi. Need rest you do."
Obi-Wan opened his mouth to reply, but felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Padawan." Qui-Gon said. "Even if you went to see Z they wouldn't let you in there. Her heart stopped as we were landing. We aren't sure what is going on."
Obi-Wan shut his mouth and bit his lower lip. He closed his eyes and called on the Force for comfort and to center himself. Once again he peered at his Master and nodded. He turned to go inside.
Walking to his quarters he dragged his feet behind him and was startled to hear someone call after him.
"Obi-Wan!" Bant called from down the hall. She jogged up next to him and her eyes widened at his appearance. "Are you OK?? You look awful!"
"Just to long without sleep." He replied in a dull tone.
"And that." She said pointing to his arm.
"Just a scratch." He lied.
"That's not all." She narrowed her eyes as thought trying to read his mind. "Your worried…" She cut off and looked down. "Z?"
"Her vital signs went dead as we landed. I don't know what's going on now." He turned away. It felt weird getting emotional in front of Bant about another girl. But he knew she understood.
Bant sighed and looked him over. "I gather you're not allowed near the medical ward? Well you need sleep anyway."
Obi-Wan gave her a weak smile and nodded. She went on her way and he slowly made his way to his quarters. Once inside he flopped onto his sleep cot and darkness claimed him before he could feel a faint ripple of life spread through the Temple.
Ok I hope that's not too bad… I tried!! Well u know what im gunna say… REVIEW PLEASE!!
Peace Out
