Chapter 4-Five Years Later
Kieran rushed into their stone-faced home. He had a look of pure panic on his face. "Dad, come quick! Luke's in trouble!" He called out.
Obi-Wan rushed over to him and asked, "Where is he, my son?" He looked worried.
"I can show you. Dad, we have to hurry. Kiara is still out there. I told her to stay out of sight, so he wouldn't see her. She has her light saber with her, just in case." He was panting heavily.
As soon as he heard that, Obi-Wan followed Kieran out to his waiting speeder and both men climbed into it. "Blast! I told you not to leave your sister alone out here!" He was quite angry by now. "With those Sand people out here, its way too dangerous. Neither of you are ready to be on your own yet." He flew to Luke's location, as he tried to calm down. "How far away from Luke is she?" He asked.
Kieran sighed worriedly. "She was hiding in a canyon not far from where Luke is." He told his father. "Dad, I'm sorry."
Obi-Wan didn't answer him. He was busy landing his speeder. He glanced at his son long enough to say, "Make sure your sister is all right. I need to check on Luke."
"Yes, sir." Kieran responded, as he got out of the speeder. He rushed over to where his sister was lying unconscious on the ground. He quickly pulled out his light saber, as he rushed over to check on her. He fought off one of the Sand people, who was easily taken out. Then, he knelt down next to Kiara. "Ki, are you all right?"
Groaning painfully, she slowly nodded. "Yes." She said, looking around. "Where's Dad?" She let her brother help her to her feet. Then, they rushed over to wait by the speeder.
"He's checking on Luke." Kieran answered. He spotted Obi-Wan glancing over to check on them. He nodded to let his father know that Kiara was all right.
Obi-Wan signaled to them to go home. He would meet them there later. Then, he focused back on Luke. "We need to move. Sand People are easily startled, but they will be back. And in larger numbers." He helped Luke to his feet, just as Luke remembered about C-3PO. Together, they went to check on him.
After getting him, they boarded Luke's speeder. Then they headed toward Obi-Wan's home, where the twins waited worriedly.
Luke landed the speeder and they went inside.
Kiara rushed over to greet them. Obi-Wan saw her and he hugged her. "Are you all right?" He asked her.
"I'm fine, Dad." She said, hugging him back. "Kieran was in his first saber fight." She smiled, when she saw the surprised look on his face. "He fought well, too."
He grinned back. "Excellent." He looked quickly at Kieran. "I'm very proud of you, Kieran. Good job."
"Thanks, Dad." He said. He smiled with pride.
Luke went on to explain about the message in R2-D2's memory banks. It was then, that the message from Leia played for the six of them. It was time for Obi-Wan's return………
Author's Note: I know this is kind of a strange place to end this fic, but it's really only the end of part 1. This is a multi part fic.
