Worry flashed through the eyes of Obi-wan as he sat across from Bail Organa. His heart was burdened. Anakin, his brother and apprentice, had been consumed by the dark side, taking the future of the Jedi with him. Padme, his friend, had died just a short time ago. Even with the birth of two new lives, he couldn't bare to find relief. Would he find the strength to one day smile again? It would be hard. Maybe, just maybe he would find peace within his life of solitude on Tatooine.

As he rose and bowed to Master Yoda, he prepared to leave, though a voice rang out. "Master Kenobi," Yoda lowered his hand. "Wait a moment."

Obi-wan obeyed immediately. He couldn't imagine what the Jedi master had to say but it must have been important. They were not going to see each other for a long time; if they lived long enough for a reunion.

"In your solitude on Tatooine, training I have for you."

There was a look of confusion upon the face of Obi-wan as he nodded his head. "Training?"

"An old friend has learned the path to immortality." Yoda folded his hands underneath his chin. "One who has returned from the netherworld of the force. Your old master."

Obi-wan's eyes grew wide in disbelief. "Qui-gon!"

"How to commune with him, I will teach you."

Words could not describe the feelings that were coursing through his body. In the wake of despair, a new joy was nestled within him. He couldn't smile but rather sat with jaw open. This was his position until the master spoke again. "More you have for me?"

Obi-wan turned his eyes to Yoda. Ah, yes, he did have questions though, could the old master be able to answer them. "Yes, I do." He paused, not knowing what to say. "After we departed, I stumbled across survivors."

"In the temple?"

"Yes, there was something about them. A link." Obi-wan shook his head. "I don't understand it… the dreams I told you about… the ones I had when I was younger…"

"Believe these younglings dreams, you suggest?"

"No," Now he felt foolish. Could he have dreamt up the woman, the world, her life. "They are the woman's children… the woman from my dreams."

Yoda grew silent. He knew who this woman was and knew of the dreams Obi-wan spoke of. Digging up the past wasn't something he enjoyed, especially when it involved a Jedi exile. "Short time is but some remains still." He sat back in his chair. "Tell a story I shall and there, all the answers will be." He took in a deep breath. "Forty years ago, before you were born, there was a girl..."

Night had descended upon Coruscant. Lights flickered upon the industrial city that never slept and now there was one who shared their quest. Flay sat upon a couch that pressed against the window. Her curls were loose for she would let no one touch her hair. She didn't have anyone enter her new room.

Life at her brother's house was solemn. No one laughed here, no one smiled. There had been losses and everyone wept but not Flay.

Her eyes narrowed upon a signal beacon as the door slid open. A woman adorned in black slowly approached the child. Flay's brother had married a simple woman and with her husband dead, she couldn't stand for distant people. Kaylie frowned. "Flay, you must come and eat something."

"Go away."

Kaylie sighed. "You can't keep away from the world forever."

No answer came from Flay. She was determined to be left alone though her wish wouldn't be granted. Instead, her sister-in-law came and sat upon the couch. Long fingers traced the stitching on Flay's dress. "I know what happened, Azul told me. It's alright to cry, to be angry, but someday it will hurt too much to feel those things."

"I will not cry. I will not be afraid." Flay's face wrinkled. Where once was a sweet, mothering spirit, now lived a bitter old being. Her voice only intensified when her eyes turned toward the Jedi Temple. "I hate them…"

Kaylie frowned. "What?"

Still, Flay would not look upon Kaylie. Hatred billowed within her tiny body and consumed her thoughts. With eyes burning, she squeezed her fists. At that moment, the vase on the dresser shattered into pieces. "Ben…"

Well, there you have it, the last chapter. One must be thinking, 'about time.' Lol, yeah I know what you mean. I was planning on a squel but I don't know if that will happen. If it does then it will be when I have finished the whole story so I don't keep readers awaiting forever. Plus we can avoid people sending emails and asking when the next chapter is going to be up ;P

Still, a squel is a maybe. As for now, I hope you all enjoyed this story and will stick around for any updates! Later!
