Disclaimer: I do not own star wars or any of the characters in star wars
(though I wish I did). Don't try to sue me, cause I'm only a 13 year old,
star wars obsessed girl.
Author's Note: Hi everyone! Sorry for how long I've taken to update, but I just couldn't get rid of that damned writer's block. The only reason I'm writing now is cause my parents told me that I'm going to be moving high schools. I got soooooooooo pissed when they said that I have absolutely no choice in the matter. When I complain all they say is: "It's a selective school, darling. You should feel honored that you were chosen from so many." Urrgh. When I heard that, I headed straight for the computer and tried to forget my problems by writing this chapter. Anyway, I'll stop blabbing on and on now.
A big thank you to all the readers who reviewed to chapter 4 and those who replied to my hiatus note: blank65, zarah lion, Mitsu Katsukawa, Ren, Karla Phoenix, Melissa, melissa greenleaf, Ziptango, Kalorna Enera, pink cherryblossoms (gonna miss pulling your hair and teasing you, when I move schools), Ry, Kalantha, Makoto, Budgiebird, Elf-Formally-Known-as-Legolas, Rose Black3, ANGELFIRE, Nanashinigami, lil buttercup (haven't talked to you in ages) slytherinsela, Amber, Shi_Nom, FireFly83, lord angelus, Starwars- FREAK2, IAmThAtIsTsUkAsA, Toria, Sukura, REALbluelightsaber, Master Elora Dannan, and anyone else I have missed out.
MUST READ THE NEXT PART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok the beginning of this chapter might be a bit confusing at first. But I assure you I have not lost the plot, nor have I accidentally updated a wrong story. Everything is the way it is supposed to be and when you get to the end, you'll understand everything. If you still don't get it, just read the author's note I put at the end of the chapter and you'll understand.
Dreams Do Come True: Chapter 5
Obi Wan moaned and rolled over in his bed. The 13 year old was currently deep asleep. However his slumber did not seem relaxed or tranquil. In fact his eyes were screwed up tightly and his face wore an expression of pure anguish.
Suddenly Obi Wan's eyes flew open and he sat up abruptly. His eyes had a wild feverish look and his expression was one of pure terror. His glazed eyes looked around his room desperately, as if he was trying to reassure himself that everything he saw was real. Slowly, bit by bit Obi Wan's mind registered what he was seeing and he started to calm down. His once harsh and ragged breathing slowed down until he was breathing normally.
'What in the world was that?' Obi Wan thought to himself. He knew he had just had a nightmare and judging by the reaction he had to it, it had to be quite bad too. Obi Wan tried frantically to remember what the nightmare was about, but it was like trying to stop water from escaping his cupped hands. Everything in his nightmare was hazy and blurry.
'I'll have to ask Qui Gon about it and see if he can help me remember' Obi Wan thought to himself. At the thought of Qui Gon, Obi Wan was overcome with the feeling of rejection and loneliness. This was most unusual since Qui Gon and Obi Wan were the closest master and padawan team in the temple and Qui Gon had never rejected Obi Wan or made him feel lonely in his life. Thought Obi Wan as he shook his head to get rid of the feelings.
Obi Wan looked at the alarm clock next to his bed and saw it was 3:52 am. It would be about another two hours till he had to wake up, so he decided try to go back to sleep. Obi Wan sighed softly as he lay down on his bed. Somehow everything seemed a lot better, now that he had calmed down and stopped worrying about the nightmare. In fact, it now seemed silly for him to get so worked up over such a little thing. Obi Wan's last thought coherent before he feel deep asleep, was that everything in his life was perfect and there was absolutely no need to worry about anything, especially a silly childish nightmare.
*******************************************
"Old Mac Donald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O, and on that farm he had a cow, E- I.." (Cherry: lol, dunno why I used that ) Obi Wan rolled over and quickly pressed the snooze button on his alarm clock. He groaned loudly and cursed the day that he had decided to put such an annoyingly cheerful song on his alarm. Of course "Old Mac Donald had a farm" wasn't exactly cheerful, but them again it was 6 o' clock in the morning and everything sounded annoyingly cheerful then.
Obi Wan groaned again and blinked quickly to try and keep his eyes open. He yawned loudly and rubbed his eyes vigorously to clear the traces of sleep from his eyes. Operating on autopilot, Obi Wan got up and walked to the shower. Slowly he removed his nightshirt and stepped into the wonderfully hot shower. The stinging drops of water pounded on his skin and successfully woke him up from the trance like state he was in.
Now fully awake, Obi Wan dressed quickly and went to the dining room. The wonderful smells emanating from the kitchen revealed that Qui Gon was already up and breakfast was ready. Qui Gon smiled at Obi Wan and put a plate of steaming hot blueberry pancakes and a bowl of pure Naboo honey on the table.
"Good morning master." Greeted Obi Wan.
"Good morning padawan, I made your favourite breakfast today, so eat up. After all its not every day your padawan turns 13." Qui Gon said with a smile.
Obi Wan gasped, he had totally forgotten that today was his birthday.
Qui Gon chuckled when he saw the expression on Obi Wan's face. "You forgot it was your birthday? Well luckily I remembered. There's a birthday present waiting for you when you've finished eating."
Obi Wan sat down, drizzled some honey onto the pancakes and scoffed them down. The wonderful taste of blueberry pancakes and honey tingled on his tongue. "This is absolutely delicious, master. You make the best blueberry pancakes in the world."
Qui Gon chuckled and looked at him fondly.
Half an hour and seven pancakes later, Obi Wan stopped eating and sat back. "That was brilliant master, it has got to be the best thing I haves ever eaten in my life."
Qui Gon looked at Obi Wan in amusement and took a wrapped parcel out of his robe pocket. "Happy 13th Birthday, padawan" said Qui Gon as he handed the present to Obi Wan.
Obi Wan unwrapped the present carefully and gasped at what he saw inside. It was a beautiful sparkling crystal. The edges of the crystal shone brightly and reflected the sun's rays, making the air around it turn an exquisite rainbow colour. Obi Wan reached out a finger and touched the crystal ever so gently. As if it sensed his touch, the crystal turned a brilliant cerulean blue. If possible, the crystal now seemed even more beautiful. It shone radiantly and seemed to capture the very essence of the sky on a warm summer's day.
"It's beautiful," whispered Obi Wan.
"I know," said Qui Gon in an equally soft voice. "It's force sensitive, it turns into the colour of the force signature of the person holding it." Qui Gon explained. "My master gave it to me as a present on my 13th birthday and now, I'm passing it on to you."
Obi Wan looked at Qui Gon in shock. "I. I can't accept this, it was your master's present to you. It must mean so much to you. I can't take it," said Obi Wan sadly as he handed the crystal to Qui Gon.
Qui Gon stroked the crystal with his thumb and it turned an amazing shade of emerald green. "I want you to have it Obi Wan, it's yours now," replied Qui Gon as he placed the crystal in Obi Wan's palm. "This represents my love for you. I love you as deeply as if you were my own flesh and blood."
"I. I don't know what to say. I love you too as a father. Thank you for this present. For everything." Obi Wan said with tears in his eyes. "I'll treasure it forever, father," said Obi Wan testing out the new word.
"I'm glad son." Qui Gon replied softly.

In his bed in the hospital wing, Obi Wan smiled in his sleep.

Author's Note: I actually wrote this whole chapter today, which is extremely surprising, since it normally takes me weeks to finish writing a chapter. Somehow, despite my mood, it's actually turned out quite cheerful. Anyway, how was it? Like it? Hate it? Love it? Please tell me in a review.
So do you guys get it? All of this is what Obi Wan is dreaming of in his dream trance. None of it is actually real, unfortunately. So Obi Wan's deepest desire is for Qui Gon to love him like a son. Cute huh?
Oh and by the way, I am perfectly aware that according to my first chapter, Obi Wan's 13th birthday is long past, but since this is all in his dream, it doesn't matter. I actually put that in as a hint about the ending, to see if anyone would notice that something was wrong and guess that the whole chapter is about what Obi Wan sees in the dreams trance.
I am also aware that Qui Gon's master was count Dooku and they did not have the best master and padawan relationship, so lets just pretend Qui Gon's master is someone else who he was really close to and gave him the crystal as a sign of how much he cared for Qui Gon, ok?
I've had some trouble uploading stories on fanfiction and getting it to come out exactly the way I wrote it. Somehow the format always changes and if I put anything in brackets, it just gets deleted altogether. Could someone please tell me how to fix this? As always, please review.
