Chapter 2

The boy once known as Obi-Wan Kenobi stepped off of the transport onto the planet of Mayim. Mayim was a planet that was half land and half water. A vast unconnected ocean that was called different things depending on where one was on land. Obi-Wan, through doing vast amounts of research and doing little jobs here and there found out that his mother was from Mayim. He had no clue where his father was from. He found no information on him. From what he could piece together from the Familiar Archives on Coruscant was that his mother's name was Abrina, and she died giving birth from him. He had to go deep into the archives for all of the children taken to the Jedi or born into the Jedi had all of the familiar information taken into the archives immediately. But when Obi-Wan went looking, he couldn't find his record. It was almost like he wasn't born. He went digging and digging. Apparently there were no Kenobi's in the Temple. He found all of his friend's records. Garen was the son of lawyer on Corellia, Reeft, the son of a merchant, and Bant, the daughter of a Calamarian ship captain. But, as far as the records go, he didn't exsist. He finally decided to do search based on his birthday. Many Jedi came up. He immediately eliminated anyone born a different year than him. Then he crossed out any non-humans, and any females. That left him with about fifteen names that could be his. One entry caught his eye. It simply said Benjamin, son of Abrina, the daughter of King Nuri and Queen Sarina of Mayim. This boy had to be him. He started to take jobs on the lower levels of Coruscant for food and a one-way ticket to Mayim. It took him fourteen months, but he finally had enough. He bought a ticket three days ago, and here he was. the planet of his mother's birth.

The ship put him in the capital of Mayim, Okyanus, where the palace that his grandparents lived was. He gazed toward the massive palace. You couldn't miss it. It was so gigantic. Obi-Wan knew that he couldn't just go up to the King and Queen and say, "Hi, I'm Ben, Abrina's son." He would surely be thrown in jail. He would have to work his way up, literally. He set off to find shelter. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Qui-Gon Jinn sat next to Mace Windu on a transport heading to Mayim. Qui- Gon was just staring out the window into hyperspace. He was silently hitting himself. How could he have seen it in the first place? Ben and Obi- Wan are one and the same. It explained why Yoda was pushing Obi-Wan onto him. It was the fact that Obi-Wan was his beloved son. All of his thoughts kept on going to that one little fact. Why didn't he see it before? Now all of energy was making sure that Obi-Wan didn't get to the King and Queen before he got to Obi-Wan. Qui-Gon himself was the one who 'fixed' Ben's archive file. He made up Abrina. He made her the princess of Mayim. When in reality he was the Prince of Mayim. He eliminated himself from Ben's birth certificate, and file. Now he was regretting it. He just hoped he hadn't made a bigger mess, when in reality he was trying to protect his son, from himself he know realized. He thought when he originally did it, he thought he was protecting Ben from his parents, that they would want him to come home with Ben and rule Mayim with them. But he didn't want that. He was a Jedi since the day when he was one that the Knight came and took him to the Temple. The King and Queen had no claim to him. He just had to make sure Obi-Wan sees that. He himself had only met his parents three times and all three times they wanted him to renounce his Jedi hood and come back to Mayim and be the Prince. The ship chose that moment to come out of Hyperspace and in the clearing was the blue planet of Mayim. Mace gave him a look of symphony.

"We'll find him Qui, I promise you." Mace said.

Qui-Gon nodded, but what neither Jedi knew at the time was that on the transport was some men who worked for the King.
