I know im a bit late… got unexpectedly really sick… forgive me?
N e wayz… I kno things still seem a lil confusin in the story at the moment but bare with me… it'll become clear in a few posts. If I want to try and clarify n e thing… its kinda of like the beginning parts are Anakin thinking to himself… and the flashback are obvious just that. Now in time the flashbacks will reveal the story unfolding here. So thank you for reading and I'd luv for ya to hang around.
Part II You wonder why you even bother…Why is there a point to be here? It does not seem to make one bit of difference. Of course what does? Sunshine or darkness, never will life be right again. Not this life anytime soon.
It seems never will it be. Kicked out of the way and thrown into the haunting shadows. No way to see any light in the darkness. No point in looking.
And in the end, it all gets to be too much…

Even though the sun beamed down on the sandy street, no soul was to be found in the abandoned town. Save for the two Jedi standing against each other saber's ready at hand. The wind picked up as a chilling laugh originating from the younger of the two men. He was laughing at his Master… and the foolishness of his own life.
He thought after all these years he would be a knight. The best knight of the Jedi temple. When now he realized, after wasting his years of life, that all Obi-Wan Kenobi had in mind was to keep him from reaching that goal. He had already married the girl he loved and yet, Jedi were not allowed to love. He again was being held back. He would end that. And end that now.
Rushing forwards towards the older Jedi the padawan let out a scream of anger and let all light release from his hold. Darkness swirled in his freezing heart
Yelling out in pain the younger man stumbled back as the blue blade singed across his cheek. Just able to parry a blow to his side Anakin regained his composition and charged at the older Jedi quickly.
"You will not win this." He said coolly.
Turning to the right Anakin was able to get a clear shot at Obi-Wan's unprotected side. Swinging in hard the burning beam singed the Jedi's cloak as he barely turned in time to avoid the deadly blow.
"A Jedi does not win a fight Padawan." Obi-Wan said as he parried the boy's new wave of swift attacks.
"Then do not consider me one." Came the icy reply. "I will win this 'Master'."
The last word, once spoken with respect, was spat in scorn and bitter hatred towards the older man. The Force that swirled around them once held light and serenity. But now only held hatred and darkness that propelled from the young man like waves on a beach.
The older man froze and shook his head.
"No, you will not." He stated firmly. He deactivated his lightsaber and clipped it firmly onto his belt and waited.
What he was waiting for, he did not know. But deep down in his heart, he knew he was waiting for the boy to turn his back. It was immanent. The boy would turn. Would betray them all. Or perhaps he was waiting for an answer. An answer to a question that would remain unanswered till the very end. Why?
The young man gritted his teeth and charged the person who taught him all he knew about being a Jedi, but with one intention. To kill him.
The pillar of energy stopped inches from the unmoved Jedi's neck. Anakin's hard breath was all that rang out in the empty town besides the soft hum of the saber slowly inching forwards. But he had no intentions of actually bring them in towards the man's neck. He wasn't sure of what he wanted to do in truth. Confused all the boy could do was stare at the Jedi with dead blue eyes.
"You won't" The older man repeated with a hint of resentment in his soft whisper.
The blue blade retreated into the hilt with a hiss and Anakin looked down at the cylinder in his hands. With a choked sob he threw it into the sand at the Jedi's feet turned around.
"Our paths will cross again Master Kenobi." He said quietly before sprinting off and out of sight.
Obi-Wan Kenobi looked down at the lightsaber that lay in the sand at his feet. Bending down a single tear rolled silently down his cheek. As the sun was covered with a passing cloud his heart was covered with a blanket of remorse. The boy would run. He would betray them. And it was all because of him.
'Our paths will cross again Master Kenobi'…
"That, my padawan, I do not deny."
TBC…
