Yay...I'm back with another chapter, and this time it didn't take a month. teehee...that's for the erviews guys, you're all awesome and I love you!


Amina took in a couple of deep breaths. It was so damn hard to breath! She waited patiently in the tree as Anakin had instructed her to do. She glanced around the trees.

It was pretty dense, and hard to see anything, though she felt relieved to slightly be able to see where the clearing was, and the bright color of yellow, which was their transportation. It was not far at all.in fact, that was where they had placed the moss.

She glanced down to see Anakin climbing the tree and setting beside her. She could feel his impatience, as if it was merely the sweat pouring from his face. He sat and looked at her, and threw in a hopeful grin.

She smiled slightly and nodded back. This was they're only shot. They had to do this soon.

Mace entered the Healers Chambers and walked to Obi-Wan's room. He stood in the doorway, as he found that Obi-Wan already had a visitor.

Master Yoda.

"Come in, you may." Yoda stated, his eyes still closed. Mace entered and stood by the small Masters side. Yoda sighed and opened his eyes, looking upon the still form of Obi-Wan, who seemed to be resting peacefully at the time. He then looked to Mace, and shook his head. "Too fast, the poison works. Not enough time young Skywalker and Finity have, I'm afraid."

Mace looked over at Obi-Wan and placed a hand on his. He almost drew back quickly in surprise, as Obi-Wan's touch was cold. He looked at Yoda and then back to Obi-Wan.

Neither Masters said a word.

Anakin looked at Amina. "Here comes two of them. I'm going to lead them to the clearing. I need you to be ready to come from behind and attack. If the moss doesn't get them, then we will.As long as we have two ways to attack, we have a good chance of getting it done quicker."

He spoke with such confidence in his voice, that Amina couldn't help but feel confident as well.

Anakin glanced down and spotted the two Victrems trotting their way. He gave Amina one last look and jumped down in front of the beasts. He then waited for them to be enticed, and took off running, igniting his light saber to help him dodge the darts which they were rapidly producing, as well as shooting.

Amina jumped down and ignited her saber, as she rushed ahead. She forced herself into a quicker run, as she found herself running along side the slowest Victrem. It turned and snapped at her, as she turned her light saber to neatly cut off it's head.

Anakin, realizing that there was one Victrem, jumped forward, slicing the beast in half, through its body. He reached down, slicing the tongue out of the beast and walked to meet up with Amina.

Amina had just done the same and looked up to see Anakin, walking through the fog, which had just started to drift through the dense trees.

FLASH!>

Amina turned at the feeling of the Force warning her, but found herself pinned to the ground by a Victrum. She cried out in pain and surprise, only to feel the weight lifted as the beast fell to the ground in two pieces.

"Are you allright?" Anakin asked her.

Amina breathed for a moment and sat up, feeling pain in her ribs. She placed a hand only to find it wet with blood and mud, as well as a sharp pain from a possible cracked rib. She cringed in the pain, but nodded to Anakin.

"I'm still alive, I'll be ok," She said stiffly. They didn't have much time. He helped her up and they started to walk towards the ship. Amina felt slightly dizzy from the pain, then reminded herself to accept the pain. She thanked her body for it, for it was a reminder that she was wounded.

But she was still dizzy.

Anakin held her arm stiffly, feeling her faltering, and also calling upon the Force to stay conscious and getting annoyed, seemingly with herself. "Remember, though you may accept the pain, your body must still react to it to help it heal."

Amina nodded, swallowing. Anakin almost caught himself in a smile again, for he was beginning to sound like Obi-Wan.

They had just gotten to the clearing, when they noticed, they were not alone.

Amina and Anakin stopped, as 7 Victrems packed themselves to trap the two Jedi in a circle. Anakin ignited his saber, keeping Amina close to him, as she too, ignited hers. They slowly moved together, toward the ship.

The Victrems started in a stalking matter moving closer together. Amina placed both hands onto the saber, and glanced briefly at Anakin. Anakin watched them closely.

One jumped forward, Anakin slashed at it, cutting a paw off, as the creature yelped and countered back. "Get into the ship," he ordered Amina.

Amina hesitated, then turned, trying to ignore her pain, force jumped onto the ships wing. At her movement another victrem jumped toward her, as she held up a hand to force it back. She jumped in and started the ship. Anakin turned to jump up and found himself blocking a few of the darts.

Then it happened.

The Victrems started to weeze. They started to seemingly begin to get sick. Anakin made a face at the sight, when he realized.The moss. They laid down the moss around the ship, and now it was beginning to affect them.

Anakin used this opportunity to jump into the ship, as he shut the top and took the controls. Amina had finally lost consciousness, as she slipped into meditation. Anakin found the only sound now, was his heavy breathing, as he began to make the journey back to the temple.

Hold on Master, I'm coming

Mace looked over at Obi-Wan for one last time, before he left the room. This would probably be the last time he saw the man breathing. He walked out into the main lobby where Master Yoda was, only to see a very dirty, wet, and tired Anakin and Amina running in. Mace couldn't help but smile as Anakin threw a Healer the bag with the two tongues they had gotten.

Amina went into another room with a Healer into another room to bandage some wounds that she appeared to have acquired. Anakin breathlessly then plopped into a chair and looked over at Mace and Yoda. He looked at them hopefully, as they only looked at each other, not sure what the outcome would be.

Amina joined the three silent Jedi in the lobby, wearing her tunic loosely, since her ribs were bandaged underneath. She sat quietly with them.Waiting.

Anakin shook his leg, getting impatient.it was taking forever.it had already been about two hours.

"You may see him now," A Healer stated, as she came out.

Anakin jumped up and ran to Obi-Wan's room. The others followed. Anakin looked at Obi-Wan, who had his eyes open, glancing around the room, confused. Finally his eyes rested on Anakin, who was smiling.

Obi-Wan smiled back, then looked at Anakin's clothes, which were still dirty. "I take it, I missed an adventure?"

"The adventure was for you," Anakin said back, grabbing his friend's hand. He couldn't get the smile off his face. The other three came into the room, Amina stayed the farthest back.

Obi-Wan, with the help of Anakin, sat up. He looked over at Mace and Yoda. Mace placed a hand on his shoulder. "It's good to see you looking well." Obi-Wan smiled back at him. "I'm still a bit confused.the last thing I can truly remember is the library.The intruder!"

"Is Knight Seirfit." Mace finished.

"We caught him." Anakin explained. "But there was someone, who caught you, when I couldn't." He glanced over at Amina.

"Acted quickly, she did. And assisted young Skywalker on his journey." Yoda mentioned.

Obi-Wan looked at Amina, seeing her for the first time. "Then I owe gratitude to you as well." He said with a smile. Amina smiled back and nodded her head. Obi-Wan glanced at her, realizing that she was also dirty. She went with Anakin.

"Obi-Wan, meet Amina Finity," Mace introduced. "She was Trift Neptu's padawan, but unfortunately before Seirfit was caught, he killed Trift."

"It very nice to meet you." Obi-Wan smiled.

Amina nodded. "It is nice to meet you as well, Master Kenobi."

"Much to talk about, we all have." Yoda stated. "Much rest, Obi-Wan needs. Tomorrow the three of you we shall see with the council."

"Amina, you should go rest as well," Mace commented to her. "You still have some healing to complete."

The three others left the room, leaving Anakin and Obi-Wan alone. Obi-Wan looked at Anakin, and laid back down. "Looks like I have a bit to catch up on."

"I was so scared of losing you," Anakin stated. "I felt so helpless when I saw you fall.If Amina wasn't there.you could have been worse off."

"But I'm not." Obi-Wan reminded him.

Anakin still felt guilt. He should have been able to catch him, he should have been able to sense the Victrem before it shot at him, which caused Obi-Wan in the position in the first place.

He should be stronger.

"Anakin, you should go wash up and rest. We will talk more tomorrow," Obi-wan stated closing his eyes. "I still feel a bit weak, and need some rest."

Anakin nodded and placed his hand on Obi-Wan's for a moment. When Obi-Wan drifted into sleep, Anakin turned and headed back to their chambers. He washed up and went to his bed, falling asleep before his head even hit the pillow.


Ok, once more I'm going to ask the question... Should I keep Amina in for future stories? Because I'm kinda undecided about her... Just let me know, and I will do the majority's bidding! 3
