Chapter Three - The Chosen One

"After millennia of waiting, The Chosen One has arrived, its really you, it must be" Cried Plo Koon, he was out of his seat and his excitement did not seem to transfer to Luke

"How can we be sure that you are Rikki Kenobi? Do you carry some identification, you could be an Empire spy for all we know," Luke said. He was clearly sceptical of the visitor.

"Luke, he is clearly a Jedi. Obi-Wan told me of his son, his mother was a noble Queen on the Alderon system, his Metachlorine count is off the scale, this is the son of Obi-Wan Kenobi" Plo held up a small machine that measured Metachlorines, the mental bacteria that influenced your thoughts and ability to handle the force.

"Come on Luke, you cant surely believe that this isnt Ben's son" Leia now joined in the convasation.

"Very well, we shall test your skills young Jedi, draw your weapon" Luke extracted his lightsabre from his belt, its green blade shimmered in the light

"Master Skywalker I don't think this is nessessary," said Rikki Kenobi "but if this is what I must do to prove to you of my abilities and identity then so be it."

He drew his blue lightsabre and took up a defensive fighting stance. Luke stuck his blade but with a quick sweep Kenobi dis-armed his opponent.

"Now are you convinced?"

"That was luck, you dont get away that easily"

"Very well". At this point Kenobi heard a voice in his head

"Let him see what you can do my friend. He will soon be convinced" Plo Koon transmitted his message to the young Jedi.

As the blades clashed together, Rikki used his speed and superior technique to show up the Jedi Master. His abilites were like no other, Luke was clearly no match for his opponent who was hardly breaking a sweat. He discarded Luke's sabre and retorted at the blonde Jedi

"Now can I please stop wasting the council's time and tell you something very important that needs to be said."

Luke sat down as Kenobi presented himself to the council

"I have finally travelled from Dantooine after 15 years of training because now is the time when the balance of the force is at its most precarious. The Dark Side has retreated far away, but they have created an Axis of Evil with Palpetine and three other Jedi. One of them is heading for Corruscant, following me as he has for 2 years now. His name is Darth Vithrar and his is a Jedi trained in the Shadow Arts."

"An assassin sent to kill you Master Kenobi. Interesting information you are presenting to the council, although more worried about the Master of this creature and the Emperor's allies we are. Surely light work you will make of this Shadow Jedi." Ki Hwin had finally spoken, his wise yet mumbled words reminded Luke of Master Yoda.

"He is not alone, and is very hard to find. The Axis have developed a unique breed of Stormtrooper, trained in the basic Jedi Arts. They wear long black cloaks and usually accompany Vithrar and are known as the Shadow Warriors. Once we find Vithrar he is virtually untouchable due to having time to vanish while we see off his Shadow Warriors. He started with 8 of these creatures and is now down to only 3. With the councils help I hope to destroy him and his Shadows. All I ask is that one Jedi accompany in my search for him." Rikki bowed his head as he completed his request.

"Do you know what the other Axis members are planning Master Kenobi?" Asked Plo Koon

"I believe they are out to regain their lost power from the Valley of the Jedi out on Altyr 5. However, I feel in the force that although two of the Jedi, Jerec and Doedor are after power, The Emperor knows as I do that soon Good and Evil will colide for a final battle. He is mearly using this oppertunity to increase his power before facing one of the Light Jedi. First though we must destroy Vithrah if we have any chance of stopping them gaining control of the Valley"

"Granted Master Kenobi. I agree with you. One of us must travel with Master Kenobi and destroy this Sith assassin."

"I will go."

The council all looked across to Luke. He had risen from his chair and stared at Rikki.

"Master Kenobi, I will travel with you to wherever you belive this Sith to be"

"Thank you, oh thank you Master Skywalker. The council has made the right decision. I thank you all for trusting me. I wont let you down."

"We will not let you either Master Kenobi." said Luke with a smile. "Han, ready the Millennium Falcon and set a course for - where did you say we were going?"

"Tatooine, the Sith is planning an attack on the residents and the power generator of Tatooine."

Luke's face turned white as a sheet.
