Lunch, laughs, losses
"Well, what do you think of my skills as a teacher, oh sage wise Master Kenobi? I rather liked teaching with you as an assistant. Your padawan seemed to be enjoying the class. So did the class if I recall correctly. Oh, but you should have seen your face! Wait, what am I saying, how could you have seen your face? Well, it wasn't something to be missed!" Tara said, laughing delightedly. Her eyes were a merry crystal color. Anakin laughed along with her, nodding. Tears were streaming down his cheeks, he was laughing so hard.
"You did just fine, except for the part where you embarrassed me. I don't remember one moment when you weren't. They didn't seem to notice that and they enjoyed themselves." Obi-wan said distastefully.
"Aw, lighten up, Master. I'm sure my lady Tara just meant you good. After all, she did go through with both of your requests, so it was only fair that you helped her, no matter how 'awful' it was." Anakin said, still laughing a bit now and then.
"Well, if you'll excuse me for just one moment, good sirs, I'll be out in just a moment." With that said, Tara excused herself and walked into another room and came back out in 30 seconds, fully changed and guarded with unseen weapons, a blaster, a light saber, and her hair tied up and covered with a kerchief. A few strands escaped here and there, unintentionally of course, but it made her look all the more beautiful.
She smiled, and sat back down gracefully as if nothing had changed. "Well, aren't you both ready or must I go to the courts alone and leave both of your jaws where they are, stuck on the floor? I'll be off now. Anta, please clear this table when we are done and regards to the chef. Thank you." She said blandly, no sign of emotion in eyes, face, or voice. Tara stood up and walked toward the door like a cat, paying no sign whatsoever as the two Jedi scrambled to catch up with her.
"How did you change so fast? I mean, you were gone for about 30 seconds and you came back, all changed." Anakin said, amazed that she could be so thoroughly transformed in such little time.
"Well, I AM female after all. Habit calls, I guess you might say, but actually, I had the clothes on underneath." Tara said smugly, smiling sweetly.
They nodded, walked on silently, and then burst out laughing. That afternoon, they sparred. Anakin went against Tara and then he went against Obi-wan. Tara pointed out some tips that he took because it did help him improve his skills. He was amazed to see that she even knew his Master's faults and made an effort to point them out to him. During the end of the afternoon, she, Anakin, and Obi-wan had done all of the physical and mental fighting skills and the two combined.
So they walked on towards the practice courts. She sparred with Obi-wan and with Anakin. Anakin found that with her tips, his movements came more fluidly and accurately and was amazed to see her point out the flaws in his master's talents. They did all of the training skills and much more that by the time they were done, only Tara wasn't thoroughly exhausted.
"Hey, I'll meet you two in the Lesser Library at the eighth hour, alright?" She said before sauntering off. They were both amazed to see that her clothes and head scarf didn't have a single trace of sweat. What they didn't see was as she turned down the hall from the courts, a person was behind her.
Obi-wan
Wow! That was completely different. Oh, no, now she's going to kick our butts. Here we go again. I just can't get over the feeling though. Something's going to happen. Well, no matter. I'm sure she can take care of herself if anything does, but I want to be there for her. After all, she is like a sister to me. A camrade. A friend. | Later | How does she do it? I think she must hand pick and personally train her guard. Yes. I think I'll go along with her plans. Yet I still wonder, how can she do all of our activities and STILL not be tired sweaty or anything else like us?
Anakin
All I can say is that she's good. Really good. I think we really must have a chat together sometime. | Later | By the force! That lady never ceases to amaze me! Well now we must go. I think I'll take a quick bath and a short nap.
Tara
Teaching was actually pretty fun. I don't think he liked it, but at least his padawan is in good spirits. Oh good! I now have the wondrous master's approval. Hahahahahahahahah- ah ha-ha! The looks on their faces! That'll be something to remember on a gray day. Time to kick their butts. Oh let's get moving guys! I think my hair is going gray! Finally. Now, time to teach them both something. Anakin, to become more skilled. Obi-wan, that he should not be so upright. Proper, okay, but stiff, not good.| Later | That was fun and...interesting... you might say. Well, I think I'll just eat with Anta this evening. Yes, that is what I'll do. Wait, who is that behind me? Must be someone headed in the same direction, but they feel suspicious. They're being very sly about it. Who are-
