Chapter 2-A Year Later

Obi-Wan drove his speeder to Mos Eisley. He was careful not to use his Jedi powers ever since he arrived on his new planet. He didn't want to take the chance of the Emperor finding him. He arrived at Mos Eisley and he parked his speeder. He walked into the bar and he quickly found a table. He could hear someone being beaten outside, so he went to check it out. He found woman on the ground and she was crying. Feeling sorry for her, he helped her to her feet.

"Leave her be, Jedi. Don't make me turn your sorry ass in." A human man told him. He shoved Obi-Wan aside and he began beating on the woman again.

Using a mind trick on him, he said, "You are done beating on this woman." He shot a threatening look toward the man. His voice was surprisingly calm, as he slowly moved back over to the woman.

"I am done beating on this woman." He obediently responded, and he moved away from them. He got into his speeder and flew away.

Smiling in victory, Obi-Wan checked on the woman's injuries. He was taken by surprise, when he saw how beautiful she was. "Thank you, Master Jedi. You are a very good man." She told him appreciatively.

"Your welcome. I'm Ben Kenobi." He said, as he checked her injuries. "Are you in a lot of pain? It appears you have quite a few cuts and bruises. I'm still checking for broken bones."

She groaned in pain, as she held her arm against her. "I think my arm is. He threw me against the wall several times." She let out a pained sigh, as he checked her arm.

"Is your home close by? It's very dangerous for me to be here for too long." Obi-Wan asked her, as he helped her to her feet.

Liana nodded. "I walked here." She pointed in the direction of her home. "It's just over there. We should go. Is your speeder close by?" She asked.

He nodded, and he helped her to his waiting speeder. They boarded the speeder and he flew them to Liana's home. They arrived there fairly quickly and he took her inside, so he could treat her wounds. "Are you here alone?" He asked her, after he was done.

"Yes." Liana said, as she headed toward her bedroom to lie down. "Thank you again for helping me, Master Kenobi. For helping me, I promise to keep your secret."

He smiled appreciatively. "Thank you, Liana. Will you be all right, or do you need me to remain here with you in case he returns for you?" He looked slightly worried.

She turned around long enough to say, "If you wouldn't mind, Master Kenobi, I would feel better if you stayed."

"All right." And he did.

Liana went to her room and she laid down for awhile. She slept for the next few hours.

While she slept, Obi-Wan meditated and he surprised her by cooking her dinner. He felt it was a fitting way to thank her for keeping his secret. He wound up taking care of her for the next ten months. During that time, they grew closer and eventually fell deeply in love. Also during that time, she became pregnant with twins. Obi-Wan was stunned, when she told him but he was happy to hear this news.

After Liana had the twins, they decided to name them Kiara and Kieran. Obi-Wan was overjoyed at being their father. He usually took Kieran with him, when he went to check on Luke. As the twins got older, they began to develop their Jedi powers. This concerned Obi-Wan and he voiced his concerns to Liana. She agreed that they shouldn't use their powers until they were considerably older. Together, they made their children promise not to use their powers, until they were much older and they did.

Author's Note-The twins reach their twelfth birthday, but it's anything but a happy birthday for them. Character death warning!
