Two of King Nuri's Royal Honor Guards were sitting on the transport to
Okyanus that Qui-Gon Jinn and Mace Windu were on. One of them, Avram,
recognized Qui-Gon immediately. He was an exact copy of His Majesty, just a
little younger. Everything was the same, the same brown hair, the same
beard and mustache, and the same ice-blue eyes that seemed to pierce
through everything. Avram chuckled to himself. The last time the Prince had
come home ensured chaos among His Majesty's family and court. Everyone was
trying to convince Qui-Gon to renounce his Jedi Hood. They had almost
succeeded too. Lord Moshave (pronounced Moss Have); the King's Royal
Adviser was brainwashing the Prince. If it wasn't for Avram contacting the
Temple and having the female Jedi, Tahl come and rescue him, Moshave would
have succeeded. Avram knew in his heart that he couldn't tell King Nuri and
Queen Sarina that their son was coming home; but duty was his duty. And his
duty was to notify the King and Queen immediately if any "visitors" came to
visit Mayim.
Mace Windu stepped off the transport onto the water planet of Mayim. He looked around for the very first time at his best friend's home planet. It was beautiful, it was hard to believe that his best friend to was the Prince of this beautiful planet. He reached out with the Force and felt all of the living organisms on the planet. It was overwhelming. There were so many species, human, nonhuman, and non intelligent species. But since the continents were so spread out, he couldn't even begin to estimate how many species lived on the planet. His thoughts were interrupted when someone came running toward them.
"Lovely," Qui-Gon said under his breath.
"What?" asked Master Windu.
"One of my father's guards. Someone must have seen me on the transport and recognized me."
"So what do we do?" Mace asked.
"Nothing. Ignore him."
"Qui-Gon!"
"Now listen Mace, you may be on the Council, but were looking for my Padawan and my son here. I was also born here, and if I want to I can have you kicked off the planet." Qui-Gon replied angrily.
"Qui-Gon!?" Mace replied again. He had never heard that tone of voice coming from Qui-Gon before.
Mace looked at Qui-Gon. His eyes looked like they were so far away. The man was getting closer and closer to them. Mace did the only thing that he could. He grabbed Qui-Gon and ran into the nearest door. It led into the Tourist Bureau. Qui-Gon wandered over to a kiosk. It was a time-line of the royal family. He followed it over the years. His family tree went back over a thousand years. He got to his grandfather and grandmother and to his parents the current rulers of Mayim. He saw a recent picture of himself on there. He didn't put anything past Nuri and Sarina. They had spies watching his every move. But what shocked him most was a picture of Tahl, and next to their pictures was a picture of Obi-Wan/Ben which couldn't be more than a few months old.
"M..M.M.Mace!" Qui-Gon whispered.
"What?" he replied and looked up from the brochures he was collecting.
Qui-Gon gestured Mace over. He looked up, and dropped what he was holding. His mouth dropped open like a slot machine. He couldn't bring himself to speak what both men were thinking. Are we too late? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
