Chapter 17- Loss
A ship sank lower towards the ground, Obi-Wan saw Tohulk'la jump aboard the descending gangplank with Keira slung over his shoulder. He ran to the ship reaching the tip of the gangway, Tohulk'la saw what Obi-Wan meant to do and kicked at his hands.
He stepped on his fingers making Obi-Wan release his grip and hanging on with one hand. The ship climbed ever higher leaving the ground at an alarming rate.
Tohulk'la punched the command console near the door to pull up the walkway.
"Now what are you going to do Jedi? That's a long fall to the ground, and if you do manage to hang on, how long do you think you can stay alive in the vacuum of space?"
Obi-Wan glared at Tohulk'la with his piercing cobalt eyes, he new he knew that he could not hang on. He was not immortal, he bade farewell to Keira in his heart and let go of the ship.
Obi-Wan sailed back down to the city-planet; he used the Force to slow his descent landing on a nearby rooftop. He watched as the ship carrying his love speed away into the oncoming gloom of night.
The stars twinkled into existence beckoning the ship traveling towards them. The lights below in the city glimmered to life, a replay of what had already happened above.
Obi-Wan continued to stare in the direction where the ship had vanished. A single tear rolled down his cheek.
He wasn't able to save her from her past, so how was he to save her from her future?
