Recovery and Revelation

While Jade and Obi-wan sat still recouping the two Jedi hopefuls sat by and watched as their friends were tested for the masters who came. Sadly because they were still in the hospital wing they we not allowed preparing or participating. Their time was becoming short as their time to be chosen was coming to a close. They both didn't know why it had taken such a time for them to be picked for some of the apprentices before had been take by master at an early age. But there must have been because they though that had not controlled the emotions enough, either way the two were stuck. It was odd but the two were in the same room, housing, nearly the same injuries, they were put together. They got really close, helping each other with things friends should. They helped each other out when they were upset etc. the time of the masters came and went but sadly they were not chosen but their friends were well most of them were and of course they wanted to brag. All of Jades friends had been chosen but obi's friends were not even though they deserved it. The council told the two that they would be chosen soon and that if they won't that they were truly sorry. That made the two worst off then before now they were upset but determined now they had to do their best so that they would succeed and become what they wanted to become-knight of the order official Jedi's.

About a week later Jade and Obi were released they were free to practice and prepare for any new masters coming. There was remorse for the two young Jedi over their loss over the masters but there was no leniency for them on the study. The days went by and the two didn't see each other much sadly they really didn't think of it. They would train all day then crash back at the rooms. Suddenly one day there were rumors of a master coming to look for a padawan all the Padawans got excited hoping to have another chance obi and Jade included.

Before they knew it was two weeks before the end of the padawan period at the temple if they were no t chosen now they wouldn't be. Qui- Gon promised to come but with no success or word. Jade was hoping he would be there. He said to her that after his mess with his last padawan that he would never take on another again. She had tried to convince him but with no success. Everyone tried to get him back but nothing worked, not Even Tahl could do it.

The day of the master arrival approached and it was time to show off. There were constant tests and watching by the Master. Everyone really tried hard and by the end of the week we were all exhausted.

After the council had the master look at the data files of all the apprentices, the master was asked (separately) whom they wanted and why. Then the council would let her take them. . Master Yoda said that whoever gets the master attention would be notified later. The apprentices were nerves that sat in the dormitories and waited for the next day. The letter was to be taped to the student door and they were to come to the council immediate.

When they woke up from the restless night sleep the students opened their doors. One at a time disappointed faces filled the temple. The last to wake was Obi-wan and Jade both heavy sleepers and the last in the row or rooms got up. Both awaking for the noises outside they both got dressed and stepped outside. The students crowded around Jade and hugged her and slapped her on the back. Jade confused looked at the door and saw the letter on her door. She looked at Obi-wan the crowded dispersed and he moved closer to her. He gave her a huge hug feeling his overwhelmed feeling for her and the fact that her had not been picked started to over come him he sniffled and pulled back

"I am happy for you but I must go" he said as he ran to his room as tears start to come.

She started to follow but stopped she knew how she would have felt if it was him or some else she knew.

She pulled the letter off the door and read it:

Padawan Jade Jinn,

You have been selected to be the padawan learner of Master Carman Zanchez. Please come to the council hall immediate to be introduced and instructed further on your selection.

Master Carman Zanchez was a senators daughter from Force knows were. She was said to be either a spoiled brat or Master bitch. Her mother was a Jedi Master who was wonderful but she had died many years before, he husband the senator was a different story he was unfeeling at times did like his wife being a Jedi. We she died he wanted nothing to do with the Jedi. But his wife wanted their force strong daughter in the order but he didn't like and their daughter never believed in it. The conflict in giving her title and a padawan was something the master did not like but the senator protested and won.

Jade walked to the council hall and knocked the doors opened and she was permitted in. A woman stood in the center circle waiting for her she guessed. Jade walked in and stood next to her a bowed to the council and to her.

"Master Zanchez meet Jade Chekonie Jinn" Jade and Carmen bowed to each other

"Jade, Master Zanchez has chosen you for her reasons that will not be said out loud but she has chosen you good luck a nd may the force be with you, oh and by the way the master has requested that a few days stay at the temple before you go on a mission in which she has started but needs to finish. We called her here because of her want for a padawan and the timing some of the students had left." Mace Windu finally finished.

"Thank you masters" They both said.

"You are dismissed," he said

They both bowed they stepped out.

"See you later kid," she said heading for the master dormitories

"Bye master"

Jade headed back to the student dormitories and to obi. She headed right to his room and went up to the door. Some one was already in there she waited until she heard a person get up and head to the door.

"See you later then obi-wan"

"Thanks Bant for coming"

"No problem" she said as she opened the door. Jade stood there and looked at Bant who shook her head and walked on. Jade then headed back to the door.

She knocked on the door

"Obi it's me Jade, can I come in"?

" Sure" he said

She walked in and saw him, sitting on his bed, looking like he was about to cry. I sat next to him. He looked at me and sniffled

" I am so sorry Obi"

"It's ok Jade it's not your fault"

A tear came down his face, I hated to see him cry, I wiped it off with my finger.

" Don't cry"

He looked down on my hand and took it in his. I then placed my other hand over his and gave it a comforting squeeze. He pulled me toward him and wrapped his arms around me. I embraced him back and laid my head on his shoulder.

" Hey" he said, " come visit the colony"

" Why? You won't be there"

He pulled back and looked at me " how do you know? I will be there probably tomorrow, no master wants me," I couldn't think of a reason but something told me he would be a Jedi, a great Jedi and a master at that.

" I just know ok, believe me"

" I believe you," he said softly "hey you better get going and pack" he said now trying to smile.

"Well I don't has to leave yet but maybe I should start to get ready" She said smiling back "I have a few more days here then we are leaving. And hey don't worry, a master will come for you and just remember my father hasn't been here yet"

He smiled and patted her hand "get going will you"

She got up and went to her room. She looked about her messy room and thought, she better get started.

Suddenly there was a call to Jade saying to come to the council room.

She went and stood before them. They told that they had commanded her father to come a try to choose a padawan he would be there in no time.

The next day Qui-Gon appeared, the council told him to choose a padawan but he could not choose his daughter. With that the council though it was hopeless. One of things that brought him back was his daughter maybe thinking of teaching her maybe not either way it was going to be hard to get qui-Gon jinn back to normal. They told him before the testing to visit Jade.

But he did he fear that his failure displeased his daughter and didn't want to see her. So he decided to see the students first. All the students were practicing including Obi and Brock who were training together with Yoda judging. He thought he should watch Obi-wan.

------Jade's point on view---------

After I heard that obi was trying again for my father I was so happy thinking that they would be a great team. A few hours later around the dinner hour I didn't see obi in the dinning hall. I walked over to Bant who had just walked in not too long ago and sat next to her

" Bant where is Obi?"

She took a deep breath and looked at me " Obi wasn't chosen, no one was, now obi has to go to the colony and we'll never see him again" her eyes welled up. I hugged her tightly

"Where is Obi?"

"He is in his room but he won't let anyone in not even me I don't think you can even get in"

I nodded and left the room and headed toward my room.

I was angry why didn't dad take him why? I didn't understand

I sat on my bed and clenched my fists and tried to mediate my poor obi

There was then a knock at my door. I walked to the door and opened it slightly in looked to see my fathers' solemn face. I opened the door letting him in. he looked at me I looked back at him arms crossed

"Jade may I.."

" No you may not I can't believe you, why did you do it?"

" If you let me explain"

" No, I know your reasons, I don't want to hear them, and you hurt my friend and by doing that you further divide us"

I pushed by him and ran out the door, I know he didn't follow. I went to the room of a thousand waterfalls found a quiet spot and cried. I was so angry but sad for obi and the state I left my father. He was hurt and ashamed in the past but I wanted my friend to have a future. I was so confused.

I heard shuffling of feet and a tapping sound come toward me. I looked up to see Master Yoda he came toward me I immediately got on my knee as best as I could. He nodded and I got up I sat back to my original spot and faced him.

"Happy we are that taken you are but heard have I about your fathers choice and your friends disappointment" he said softer then usual "but change your fathers mind we can not"

"I know Master Yoda, I know, but I wanted so much for them to be happy, my friend to have a future to become the Jedi I know he is and for my father to continue to be as he used to be."

" Wish we all had my student" Yoda said patting me on the shoulder.

-------Author point of view-----

Few days later Jade Jinn and her new master were about to leave. Jade had not talked to her father and Obi had still not been chosen my Qui-Gon. The day that jade left was not a happy one at least it didn't start out well. Obi had not said goodbye and either had her father; she felt alone and scared of what would happen next. Jades' master had told her to meet her at the docking bay at late afternoon so that she could gather her belongs and such and say goodbye to everything and everyone. Which she did, but she could not find the two men she loved. She gave up after asking many where they were with no luck she went to the docking bay at the time her master said and waited. Time passed with no sign of her Master, she waited and waited till she saw two running figure coming toward her, she could see it was obi-wan and Qui-Gon

"Didn't think we would let you leave without saying goodbye," her father said

She got up and hugged them both the two man trying to stay away form each other

" Be good you guys," she said with a smirk.

Then her master appeared in a hurry

" Come padawan we must go" she bowed to her father and "friend" and got on the ramp of the ship waving as it closed in front of her.
