Master Elora Dannan - Yeah, and things aren't going to be good for Qui-Gon
in this chapter either, but it's got to be done.
Arfea - Glad you like it! I have been resting the wrist since it got really bad (read twice the size it should be!) and that's why this chapter took so long in coming!
Chapter 6
On waking up the next morning, Obi-Wan heard voices coming from the common room. He recognised Qui-Gon's voice and Mace's, and one that could be Master Yoda's. All three sounded serious.
Getting dressed slowly Obi-Wan walked out to see what was going on. He was nervous for some reason, until Mace shot him an encouraging smile and motioned for him to sit down next to him.
"Obi-Wan," Master Yoda addressed him. "happy are you?"
Obi-Wan paused. "yes Master Yoda," he said in a voice which didn't give away much of what he was thinking. Qui-Gon's face fell.
"Mace, happy are you to take Obi-Wan away with you while inspect I will the training bond between Master and Padawan? Good a term of separation may be."
"Yes Master Yoda. We will leave tomorrow, ok Obi-Wan? Do you want to come with me while I finish the final arrangements? You can help Chris again."
"Yes Master Windu!" Obi-Wan ran to find his robe.
Soon they were on the way to the studios together.
"We'll be staying in a hotel on planet for a couple of days before going off to filming, ok Dan?" Mace asked the very quiet boy beside him.
"That's fine! I just got a bit of a shock this morning!"
Mace laughed. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you," he told the lad and put his arm around the lads shoulders. "Qui-Gon could hardly believe you were unhappy with him but when I asked if you talked much he saw it from my point of view although it is quite obvious that he cares for you a great deal." Mace told Dan.
"I know, but so do you," and the two walked into the studios laughing with each other.
"What's so funny?" Bonnie asked as they walked in the doors.
"Long story," Dan told her. "Is anyone else here?"
"Nope, both Emma and Rupert aren't coming today, it's just the two of us. I thought we could maybe start on the folders?"
"Brilliant!"
The two ran off the their room without so much as thinking of anything. On set all responsibilities apart from acting and having fun acting where lifted from their shoulders. They were free to be young. Something which Obi-wan hadn't had much of a chance to do before.
Setting to work at a table by dinnertime the photos where in order and carefully stuck down on bits of paper held in leather folders. They would decide what to write under them with the other kids who were on the cast.
They decided to go and find the adults since they were getting hungry and wanted food! Adults had to come in useful for something! Finding Jo they set of to the main common room where Mace and Chris were talking about something technical.
Obi-Wan and Mace left quite early in the afternoon to pack all of Obi-Wan's things into the trunk which Mace had had sent to the Temple. He had also bought him some civilian clothes so he wouldn't have to wear his robes all the time. They finished packing quickly and it was time for evening meal. Mace ate with both Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon and left soon after.
Qui-Gon tucked Obi-Wan into bed and read all of the Philosophers Stone to him, even though it didn't do anything to sooth his raging heart. Why did Mace have to steal his Padawan off him? Anger rolled off Qui-Gon if waves but Obi-Wan was disturbed in his sleep. Qui-Gon put a soft kiss on the lad's forehead and left the room.
The next morning Obi-Wan left with Mace after a very brief hug with Qui- Gon. Two hours later he was mucking about with Emma, Bonnie and Rupert and the four where getting ready for Tom Felton's arrival the next day. Tom was going to play Draco Malfoy and the four couldn't wait to meet him.
After Tom had arrived the four where going to the other side of the planet for photo shoots and then leaving planet to an unknown location for filming. Chris wasn't going to risk press on the set and the kids were too young to have to go through everything whilst being attacked by press every hour of the day.
That night Obi-Wan didn't think of Qui-Gon once and was quite used to being called Dan, no one had called him Obi-Wan since he had left the Temple that morning. He slept soundly in the hotel without a care in the world. He was happy and couldn't wait to begin filming.
Qui-Gon however was missing his apprentice terribly and had been restless all day.
Dan knew none of this though and was looking forward to the fun and laughter of the next day, having none of the weights he usually had on his shoulders. He didn't have to worry about pleasing Qui-Gon and Chris was confident in him and he was comfortable working with Emma and Rupert. The immediate future looked bright.
Please, please review!
