Disclaimer: Same as always. I own Nemesis Kenobi and Aidra Jinn-Kenobi. That's it. Everything and everyone else belongs to you know who.
Notes: Ok, so it's nice to know that some of you out there are still reading this story. Thank you so much for the reviews. For those of you who are wondering about this fic being and AU, don't worry, I have more twists coming. The existence of Nemesis Kenobi will not be the only difference in this AU fic.
Feedback: Please but constructive criticism only. If you have to criticize anyway. So, on with chapter 19
Obi-Wan's Daughter: Part 19
~This is great. My speeder? Why do we have to sell my speeder? Why can't we sell something else. Why can't we sell Threepio?~
"Quit sulking, Luke." Nemesis chided. She watched her father as he concluded his business deal. "We can't take it with us and you won't need it anymore. You're doing what you always wanted, leaving Tatooine."
"I just think we could have gotten more for it, that's all."
"But we didn't need more, Luke. Daddy sold it for the amount we promised to pay Han before the trip to Alderaan."
"And where is the rest of the money going to come from, Nem?"
Nemesis sighed and rolled her eyes. "Weren't you listening? Father is an old friend of Bail Organa. The government of Alderaan will pay his remaining fee. The information that Artoo has is vital to the rebellion."
"Actually I was more concerned with that Space Pirate flirting with you." Luke glared at her. "Who does he think he is…"
"Who do you think you are?" Nemesis asked calmly. "Haven't I already explained that…"
"What? That you're not my destiny? Nemesis! Don't you understand? I…"
"Don't say it." Nemesis shook her head. "You're the one that doesn't understand, Luke. You will, one day. But now…"
"Can't we just try? And if I don't understand, explain it to me! Talk to me! Nem, please?"
Nemesis sighed. She turned her head and looked into Luke's pleading eyes. "Luke, we're about to partake on a mission to save the galaxy. You are about to begin your training as a Jedi. If something were to happen to where my father can't train you, then I'll have to. It would just get too complicated."
"Complicated?" Luke shook his head. "Complicated how? As in this, what we're doing now, isn't complicated?"
"Luke, you need to calm down. Emotion…"
"I'll show you emotion." He muttered before he pushed Nemesis back against the side of the building they were standing by.
"Luke…" She looked past him, to where her father was still conversing with the person who purchased the speeder.
"Nem." Luke said, his voice surprisingly calm.
"We really should get going, and…"
"Shut up, Kenobi." He said gently before he kissed her.
"Shall I leave you two behind and head to the hanger on my own?"
"No, sorry Ben." Luke said, grinning sheepishly after he broke the kiss. "Just…trying to make things less complicated."
"Are you sure you don't mean more complicated?" Nemesis asked. She glanced at her father. *Why didn't I sense that coming?*
Obi-Wan shrugged. *Perhaps he's subconsciously blocking his thoughts. It's possible.*
Nemesis nodded. *I suppose so.*
Luke looked at the ground. "About that, Nem. I'm sorry…you were trying to explain and I…"
"We'll discuss this later, alright? We have to get to the hanger. Han and Chewbacca are waiting for us."
Obi-Wan nodded. "She's right. If we keep them waiting too long they'll assume we've changed our minds, or we've been caught by the Empire."
"Right." Luke said, still looking at his feet. "Lead the way, then."
*****
A/N Yes, I know it was very short, but that seemed like an appropriate place to end it. So…Nem and Luke? Nem and Han? Nem and some other character? Who knows? Well, I do. But you'll just have to wait and see.
