"Leila!" Obi Wan stared at the door.
"Obi Wan!" cried Leila, becoming frightened.
Qui-Gon pressed the side of his face against the door. "Leila, can you hear me?"
"Yes Father." Calmness spread over Leila.
"Step away from the door," ordered Qui-Gon.
Leila stepped back away from the door.
Qui-Gon pulled out his lightsaber. And thrust it into the door.
Leila jumped back as the lightsaber melted through the thick metal.
"Did it come through?" shouted Qui-Gon.
"Yes!"
Obi Wan pulled his lightsaber and started on the other side.
Three minuets went by and suddenly, a large piece of metal fell through and a beam of light shot through the hall.
Leila climbed out.
Obi Wan grabbed her by the shoulders. "You!"
She smiled at him. "Glad to see you too, Obi Wan."
The fortress began rumbling.
"Get on the ship!" shouted Qui-Gon.
Obi Wan sat down in the chair and the ship lifted off. It backed far away from the fortresses.
Suddenly, there was a magnificent "boom!"
The three Jedi stared in disbelief as the building suddenly collapsed. And all that was left was a pile of burning rubble.
"Well, are you?" asked Yoda.
Leila had come straight to him as soon as they had returned to Corsaunt.
"Yes Master." Leila stood at the center of the room. her eyes where calm.
"I danger where you?"
"Yes."
"Killed the Sith Lord, you did?"
"I did, Master."
Yoda smiled. "Well, you have done."
"Thank you, Master."
Obi Wan was waiting for her when she came out of the room.
She smiled at him.
Obi Wan took her hand. "Come, we must talk."
Leila followed him.
He led her into an empty council room.
"Obi Wan, what's wrong?" asked Leila.
"Leila, I've discovered something."
"Tell me," she said instantly.
"I've broken a Jedi rule."
Leila's eyebrows rose. "You, Obi Wan?"
"Yes. An important rule."
"What was it?" asked Leila as she sat down on one of the large round stools.
"I fell in love."
Leila blinked. And stared at him. For some reason, a feeling of apprehension rose in her. "With who?"
Obi Wan came foreword. He brought one of the other stools close to her. He picked up her hand and studied it. And then looked at her. "With you."
