Chapter 5
Qui-gon brightened as he sensed Tahl enter the room where he and Obi- wan were meditating. "I see you made it back all in one piece. Did you discover anything?" Tahl asked. She never said hello, but jumped right into a conversation. Qui-gon relaxed his meditation stance, and replied, "As did you. A boy native to the area knows how to get into Offworld headquarters. We're going to investigate tomorrow. And you, did you find any information on the missing children?"
Qui-gon was glad to see Tahl. They had gone through temple training together, and were close friends. When she had lost her eyesight on the planet of Melida/Daan, he had been very distressed. He was always glad to see her safe and sound. Not that he didn't trust in her ability to take care of herself. He respected her as a Jedi Knight, and an amazing person.
"I found out a little from a boy I met on the street. He had some clues. I think I'll check the city security office tomorrow." Tahl said, breaking into his thoughts. "That sounds like a good idea." Obi-wan remarked, startling Tahl. She had almost forgotten he was there. She was sure that Qui-gon wouldn't have made that mistake. He was always a step ahead of everybody. He never forgot about anyone, and he could sense you coming long before he could hear you. He had an amazing connection to the living force, and she respected him for that and many other things. He was an invaluable friend.
"Perhaps you should turn in for the night." Too-jay said, jerking her out of her thoughts. She got ready to yell at the droid for disturbing her, but stopped. Too-jay was right, she was somewhat tired.
"I suppose you're right."
"Rest well Tahl." Qui-gon said.
"Same place tomorrow?" she answered.
"Sounds good." Said Obi-wan. And so Tahl turned around and left the room, leaving Obi-wan and Qui-gon to finish their meditation.
