Chapter 3-The Unhappy Birthday
On their twelfth birthday, Obi-Wan reluctantly began training them as Jedi. Liana wasn't very happy about this, but she knew that it was necessary for them to need to be trained, so they could protect themselves. After their first training session, Obi-Wan took them to visit Luke at the Lars' farm.
Despite the chilly reception from Owen, Beru was delighted to see them. She invited them inside for a lengthy visit. None of them had any idea that Storm Troopers were attacking the Kenobi home.
While Luke played with the twins, Obi-Wan spoke with Owen privately. "Are you sure this is wise coming here? Luke has no idea who his father really is and I hope to keep it that way."
Obi-Wan sighed. "Owen, you know as well as I do, that Luke cannot escape his destiny. We both know what his destiny is too." He glanced at Owen for a reaction.
Owen let out a frustrated sigh. "I know."
Obi-Wan and Owen both rushed inside, when they heard Kiara scream and begin to cry hysterically. Obi-Wan rushed over to his daughter and he hugged her. "What's the matter, Sweetheart?" He asked her gently, as he held her close to him.
"It's Mama, Daddy. She's hurt. I saw her die." She said, still crying. Her arms were tightly wrapped around her father's neck. "Daddy, you need to go check on Mama."
Beru came rushing over to them. "Go check on her, Ben. The children can remain here while you're gone." She glanced at Owen, who nodded in approval.
Obi-Wan gave each of his children a hug and he rushed home. His heart broke, when he saw that Kiara's vision was correct. His wife was in fact dead. He held her dead and broken body, as he sobbed. He buried her in a private ceremony. Then he returned to the Lars' to break the awful news of Liana's demise.
Both of the twins were heartbroken. "We never should of left Mama alone!" Kieran shouted, as he held onto his father. "What'll we do now, Dad?"
"We'll return to my former home and live there. Too much of our old home reminds me of your mother. It'll be too painful to stay there any more." Obi-Wan said to his children.
"Daddy, I do want to go back." Kiara said. "Just to say goodbye to Mama. Please." She gave him a sad look.
She looks so much like Liana. Obi-Wan thought, as he nodded in agreement. "All right. Let's go." Owen went with them, leaving Beru at home with Luke.
They took the twins to their home long enough to say their goodbyes. It was a very tearful and lengthy one too. Obi-Wan gave a farewell speech, as Owen went inside to pack the twins' things. He hoped it would be the last he would see of any of the Kenobis, but he knew that it would be impossible, as long as they lived there on Tatooine. He left, as soon as he helped them settle back in to their new home.
Obi-Wan continued their training after giving them a few weeks to get use to their new surroundings and finish settling in.
