Dreaded fears
His meditation was quickly interrupted by the sound of blaster fire that seemed to come from outside the door through which he just stepped. But that couldn't be…could it?
Why don't you find out? After all, you said it yourself, it couldn't be, right master Jedi? The voice mockingly replied to his inner quandaries, but it didn't bother him, in that moment he had more important things to do.
Whit stubborn resolution, he activated his lightsaber and quickly stepped through the door just as the hangar was transformed into a blazing inferno that quickly spread towards the open door until the emergency systems kicked in and sealed the blast doors.
The blaze itself didn't even warm up his robes, but the shockwave of the blast sent Obi-Wan fling through the air until he collided with the stone surface of the wall, almost losing conscience f it weren't for his Jedi training.
The young Jedi Knight rose to his feet and brushed his robes of the dust that settled on them and gazed once more at the blast doors, as if they were the only proof that confirmed his suspicion.
The blaster fire, although disturbing at the begging, was slowly dieing away, but the emergency blast doors and the melted ceramiplast next to the doorway towards the hangar bay was right before him.
They were crushing proof that someone was indeed attacking the Temple, but the unanswered question remained to be solved; and the question was: who?
Who in the entire galaxy would dare attack the Jedi?
Who would want to destroy the guardians of peace and prosperity throughout the galaxy, the ones that toiled and bleed for more than a thousand generations for the Republic?
These were the things that troubled his mind as he stood there, a lone Jedi in an empty corridor lost somewhere in his thoughts and with no clue of his surroundings. A Jedi that felt that he was about to get all the answers he was seeking, but was that a good thing or would it be his greatest fear came true?
There he stood, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi Knight, former padawan of Qui-Gon Jinn, lost in his darkest thoughts, but he was not alone, for the shroud that settled before his eyes was broken by his ghostly companion.
Just a whisper, a few simple words, and he tumbled back to reality faster than hyperspace…for those words were his darkest fear, and the mockery behind the voice that spoke was far graver than just concerning.
The Sith, my friend, the Sith…
A few words and his mind returned to the dark corridors of the assaulted Temple.
