Chapter 3-
"This disease..this horrible illness kills its victim fast. One day
the unfortunate person has a mild fever, maybe symptoms of a cold. The
next day they could be dead."
Anakin went white. "Dead..just like that!"
Lin nodded gravely and conitnued.
"Sometimes it will makes its keeper suffer. A few times it was like
the person had a split personality. They would be themself one minute
then the next....well you'll have to see. Come on follow me and thanks
for coming."
She led them inside the steel structure. The sight that came to them
shocked the jedi. Obi-Wan even gasped a little out loud.
Hundreds of people, adults or elderly ones lay moaning, crying,
yelling in pain. Children of all ages and adults who hadn't got sick
were running around caring for the bedridden ones. Lin turned to the
jedi.
"This is what they usually start off like."
She motioned for them to follow and Qui-Gon went first. Obi-Wan pushed
Anakin ahead of him, so he was in the middle. Anakin looked up at Obi-
Wan, confused at first. Was Obi-Wan scared? Then he realized that some
of the patients were starting to try to grab them, for their help.
A woman, maybe in her early thirties grabbed at Anakin. His first
instinct was to pull back but then he looked into her eyes. Sadness
and pain echoed through. Anakin smiled reassuringly before someone
pulled him back. The woman made a small smile before laying back
again.
They came into a small room between the one they left and the one they
were about to enter. Lin, the jedi, and a man were the only ones in
there. The man left through the door they had come in and Lin spoke.
"Look ahead, through this window."
Qui-Gon looked first, then Obi-Wan. When Anakin went to look Lin made
a move as to stop him, but Obi-Wan held her back. Anakin looked
through and closed his eyes. It was horrible. Some were tied up with
chains to prevent them from moving. Others wore a facial expression of
pure evil, while some yelled rude things and spat. Others were doing
things to theirself that shouldn't be done.
Anakin turned away and whispered," What..why are they like that?"
Lin looked at him. "Those are the people that have it worst. They
get..it seems like they have another person inside them, like they are
possessed. Can you help us?"
For the first time Lin looked afraid and hopeless. Qui-Gon stepped
forward and laid a hand on her thin shoulder.
"We will do everything in our power. Everthing."
Obi-Wan then said evenly," That doesn't mean that we will succeed. We
don't want to give you false hope. After all our padawan is infected,
too."
Obi-Wan glanced at Anakin. Obi-Wan knew Qui-Gon was afraid for their
apprentice. Heck, he sure was. After seeing all those people, what's
happening to them who wouldn't be. Qui-Gon's voice came back to him.
"Very well. We shall get some rest and meet you in the late morning."
"Alright. Thank Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan," Lin said. Then she turned to
Anakin," I'm sorry Anakin, but we will help you, I promise. Don't be
afraid, little one."
Anakin nodded not trusting his throat. Lin gave him a brief hug and
left. The jedi too, left and went back to their camp. Qui-Gon went to
his appentice and kneeled down by the twelve year old. Fear showed
bright on the youths face. Obi-Wan kneeled by Qui-Gon.
Anakin looked at his masters. This was only his third mission, he
didn't want to die. Without even saying anything, Anakin knew that his
masters knew what he was feeling.
Anakin fell into Qui-Gon's hug and he heard Obi-Wan say,"It's okay
Ani, you're going to be fine."
Anakin refused to let the tears come. He was a jedi, not a wimp. After
awhile they went to sleep. Anakin tossed and turned, a fever already
making itself present by the sweat on his forehead.
