Chapter 6-Rescuing Obi-Wan

"We need to rescue him, Luke." Kieran said, as he ran off. It didn't take him long to find his father. He activated his light saber and he joined the saber duel with Vader.

"Kieran, be careful!" Obi-Wan warned him, as he backed off a little.

"So, Obi-Wan." Vader said. "You did train your own children as Jedi, too." His was voice soft and taunting.

"They just reached the level of Jedi Master." Obi-Wan said, as he rejoined the saber duel. "You will never find her, Darth. I can assure you of that."

Vader got the upper hand on his battle with Kieran, and to Obi-Wan's horror Kieran was struck down by Vader.

"Noooo!" They both heard, as Obi-Wan went to rejoin the others. He knew right away that it was Kiara's voice he had heard. He quickly boarded the Falcon and he went to Kiara, who was crying.

She was sitting with Luke and Leia, who looked just as sad. She saw her father and she quickly stood up. "Dad!" She said, and threw her arms around him. She sobbed into his shoulder, as he sat down with her.

"He's with your mother now, Kiara." He said softly to her, as he held her. His heart broke at the loss of his son, but he knew he had to be strong for his daughter. "We still need to continue our mission, Honey. You know that."

Sniffling, she nodded as she glanced at Leia. "Dad, its time they heard the rest." She was still trying to calm down.

"Agreed." He said, just as Han appeared. He needed Luke's help getting away. Luke quickly got up and he went to give him a hand. He came back a few minutes later.

"What is it you need to tell us?" Leia asked, glancing at Luke.

Obi-Wan noticed this. He could sense the connection the two shared. "The two of you share a very special connection. One that neither of you knows about." He began. He started to say something else, but Leia motioned for him not to.

"I already know." She looked directly at Luke, and said, "He's my brother." She glanced at Obi-Wan for confirmation. He nodded.

"That's right." Obi-Wan said. "The two of you are twins." He sighed, before continuing. "Both of you were separated at birth to prevent the Emperor from finding you. You were sent to live with people that could be trusted enough to keep secret who your parents really are."

"What do you mean? Our mother is dead." Luke said.

"Luke, Vader wasn't always Vader. He use to be a Jedi named Anakin Skywalker." Kiara said, and she turned away.

"Vader is our father?" They both said in unison. They both shared a look of surprise and shock.

"Yes." Obi-Wan said. He glanced at his daughter to check on her. He could hear her crying softly, as she stared out of the window. He started to walk over to her, but Leia got to her first.

"Kiara, I am so sorry about your brother." She said, as she hugged her new friend.

"Thank you, Leia," Kiara said, as she hugged her back. It was then, that she felt someone close by. "Dad?" She looked up at him with a questioning look on her face. Whatever she was feeling, she couldn't believe it.

He came over to her and placed his hands on her shoulders. "What are you sensing, Sweetheart?" He asked, softly.

Instead of answering, she called out, "Kieran!" She looked around quickly. Her eyes lit up, when she saw her brother walk into the room. She rushed over and hugged him. "What happened? We thought you were dead."

Obi-Wan came over and he began to explain. "I'm sorry, Kiara. Yes, your brother came over to help me, but just as Vader was about to kill him, Kieran managed to duck away. We had to make Vader think I was wounded and he was killed."

"How did he get away though? I saw it with my own eyes, when Kieran was killed." She protested. She had the slightest bit angry. "What's going on, Dad? Why all of this?"

He sighed, not answering at first……..

Author's Note-What do you think of part 2? Pretty exciting, huh? How do you think Obi-Wan will explain Kieran's "death?" That will be coming soon in part 3.
