Chapter 18
Obi-Wan stood on the rooftop continuously staring in the direction of the ship. He silently wiped away the tear and turned to look for a way off the roof. How could I have prevented him from taking her? How! He berated himself with this question, how could he have saved her?
He would find her, the galaxy may be a big place, easy to loose someone and even harder to find but he would not give up. Not while he still lived would he ever stop searching.

Keira awoke in the ship's passenger compartment, where the ship's crew could rest while on long hyperspace trips. Amazing, I haven't been strapped down. She swung her legs over the edge of the bunk; which stood about a meter and a half off the floor, nestled on one side of the wall. From her position she saw the following, to her left was a small refresher station, directly in front of her was the exit door with the control pad to the right. To her right was a row of closets, probably meant to house the crew's possessions.
The room itself wasnÕt that big either so everything was a bit cramped but other wise it could be considered cozy, under different circumstances that is. She stood on her feet and walked to the closets. She rifled through all the contents looking for some way to defend herself from Tohulk'la.
"I see you're awake, that's good I'm going to need your skill at the wheel." Keira spun around at the sound of his voice, I think I can take him down; the effects of the drug have worn off now.
"I know what you're thinking and the answer is that I'll shoot you down before you even move," from behind his back he pulled a blaster. "Now let's do this again, get to the cockpit and help me and the ship. Then you can try for the gun. Now move!" He motioned with the blaster for her to walk out first.
She quietly obliged, walking in front; they reached the cockpit where she took a seat in the co-pilot's seat. She checked the systems that were running and while he wasnÕt looking, the nav data. They were headed to some planetary system near the Unknown Regions but still within the Outer Rim.
