Never Lose Hope

The sun came over the council tower bring light into a padawan's room. That Padawan was Obi-Wan Kenobi, apprentice to Quiu-gon Jinn a well known Jedi Master. In the apartment which housed these two people the shower was run and the holovid was on. Qui-Gon was waiting for his, yet again, late Padawan. Today they were to go over the 5th katas a sparing match which they had been going over for the pass three days. Obi-Wan walked out of the fresher to his room to come back to the common room a minute later.

"Master? I'm ready." Obi-wan said.

"And late also." Qui-gon chuckled. "Let's leave the sooner we finish the sooner you can go meet Bant's ship.

"Alright!" Obi-wan said jogging to the door.

Two hours later-

Obi-Wan stood waiting in a landing bay. He could see Bant's ship pulling in. He couldn't wait to see Bant it had been six months since her Master had taken the mission.

"Obi!" Was his only warning before he had a armful of salmon color girl.

"How was your trip Bant?" He asked when he could finally breathe correctly.

"Boring. The parties would not agree to anything." They walked to the lunch area talking about what they had been doing during the time that she was away. "So how's Garen, Reeft, and Bruck?"

"Alright. Infact ask them yourself" Bant just looked confused. Until Obi- Wan motioned for her to turn around. When she did she was greeted with her friends

"Hey, guys it's so good to see you." She said giving them hugs.

While the friends talked in the lunch area, Qui-Gon was talking with Master Yoda and Mace.

"Mission for you and your Padawan, we do. Though, easy, it will not be, we fear."

"Whatever the Council wishes" Qui-Gon said not thinking about what Yoda said.

"Qui-Gon, you and your apprentice will need to go to a hostile planet and get many data chips with very important information on it and get in less then twenty days. The thing is we don't know exactly where on the planet the chips are. We do have leads, but thats all they are. The people hate Jedi. Do you think you can do this?" Mace asked, wanting to make sure that Qui-Gon understood what he would be going into.

"Obi-Wan and I will be ready when you need us to leave." Qui-Gon said after thinking about it for a while.
