Qui-Gon Jinn walked through the palace, not noticing the line of elite guards lining the corridor.

He had one focus. That feeling the force gave one when there was an untrained, force-strong person near.

His duty on the planet Euphora had been to try to stop the civil war that the embattled monarchy and

rebel faction were having, but it had not gone as planned. Instead of negotiations, as he was expecting,

he had arrived and had to protect the King, Queen, and a powerful Lord from an attack on the palace.

The King was killed in the attack from random fire. A prick from the force brought him back from his thoughts

as he neared the room the force-strong person was.

As he neared it, the two guards at the door immediately pulled

blasters but he immediately knocked the two against the next wall. He had no time for this.

As he walked into the room he found the child surrounded by even more guards, but once again he knocked them all

out with the wave of a hand. He quickly grabbed the child and hurried out, masking himself with the force.

//Padwan, we need to leave. NOW!//

Obi-Wan Kenobi was sprinting out of the palace as fast as he could, giving the Lady he was assisting no explaination.

He had to hurry. //I'm coming Master.// As he neared the barren spot where the ship should be he immediately stopped.

All he had to do was look up. The ship was swooping down to pick him up. As soon as the landing ramp was down, he jumped

into the ship and closed the ramp as fast as he could manage. He had to see what his Master, Qui-Gon Jinn had found that

they had to leave so quickly. His master had already found that boy, Anakin Skywalker that had almost replaced him. Thank

the force he hadn't. Mace Windu had taken Skywalker as his padwan so that Obi-wan would still have a master.

He walked to the cockpit and found a bundle lying in the co-pilot's seat. "Master, what is this?" he asked, some-what curiously.

"It is a force-strong, untrained child that was in the palace. With the current state of affairs I could not leave the child

on the planet." Qui-Gon responded.

"Master, this child belongs to someone!"

"It had to be done Obi-wan, and it is for the best."
