Chapter 3
Here is chapter 3 enjoy!
Selena and Obi Wan talked as they waked behind the two Jedi Masters who occasionally glanced behind them and smiled as they heard the two youngsters talking. When they reached the steps that lead up to a large door. Tahl and Qui Gon walked up the steps quickly as she felt sick. They hurried inside and back to their apartment.
A young attractive female Padawan with long wavy auburn hair and hazel eyes was watching Obi Wan and Selena and she was not happy!
She marched down the steps and Obi Wan frowned as he looked over and then muttered.
"Here we go."
"OBI WAN!" The girl screeched.
"Um hey Cala what's up?" Obi Wan asked her.
Cala looked Selena up and down and Selena just stared at her. Cala slid her arm around his waist and pulled him towards her.
"Who are you?" Cala asked in a snotty tone and glared daggers at Selena.
Obi Wan replied with a small smile "Cala Mabyn meet Selena Tabansi."
Selena held out her hand but Cala turned to Obi Wan and asked rudely.
"Why were you talking to a thief?"
Selena dropped her hand and frowned. Obi Wan was about to speak but Selena said angrily.
"I am not a thief! My second name may be Tabansi but I was adopted by them when I was a baby!"
Obi Wan looked at her he wondered why she looked so familiar, Cala just stared and said in a defeated tone.
"Come on Obi Wan the others are waiting for us."
She turned and pulled him away with her and inside the Temple. Selena sighed as she climbed the steps and pushed the door open. She was amazed the Temple was so big! She then realised she didn't know where Tahl and Qui Gon's apartment was. She then grinned as she saw Tahl walk towards her.
"Selena!" "There you are now come on follow me, we have to go to the Council as they are waiting for you."
Selena followed her and felt so out of place as she wore a black dress and everyone else was wearing brown or cream. She followed Tahl to the hover lift.
"So Master Tahl…" Selena began but Tahl interrupted her.
"Selena you can call me Tahl you know that but when we are around other Jedi you can call me Master Tahl."
Selena laughed and then the silver necklace that she wore fell off her neck. Tahl gasped when it fell to the floor and Selena bent down to pick it up and sighed,
"I swear this thing is gonna be the death of me someday."
Selena turned to face Tahl who looked as white as a ghost.
"Tahl are you ok? You look very pale?" Selena asked concerned.
"I-I'm fine Selena no need to worry, I-I just hate these things." Tahl stammered.
Selena nodded then put her necklace back onto her neck. The hover lift stopped and they stepped out onto the corridor.
"Wow! You can see all of Coruscant from up here!" Selena exclaimed.
Tahl asked her quietly. "Selena when did you get that necklace?"
Selena looked at Tahl "My mother gave it to me when I was a baby, before she put me up for adoption."
Tahl nodded then they approached the doors to the Council room.
"Now Master Yoda and the Council are going to ask you some questions you must tell the gods honest truth." Tahl explained.
Selena nodded then they walked in and Selena felt uneasy as every pair of eyes watched her as she walked down the steps.
"Hmm scared are you?" Master Yoda asked her.
Selena and Tahl bowed before the Council and Tahl stepped to the side.
"Y-yes a little." Selena stammered as she stood in the middle of the floor.
"You don't need to be scared we aren't going to hurt you." Adi Gallia said in a kind tone.
Selena nodded and then Master Windu asked her.
"You are 17 is that corredt?"
"Yes Master" Selena replied.
" You were adopted by the Tabansi family when you were a year old?" He asked her in a serious tone.
"Yes Master I was."
Yoda looked at Mace who nodded then looked at Tahl who pretended to be staring at the ground.
"Necklace you wear mother gave you that see can I?" Yoda asked her and she pulled it off her neck and showed it to the small Jedi Master who examined it then gave it back to her.
Selena put it back on and then Yoda told her.
"Decision we still have to make see you in 1 hour we will."
Selena bowed and rejoined Tahl before they left however, Ki-Adi Mundi shouted.
"When you come back please bring Master's Tahl and Qui Gon with you."
Both women bowed before leaving as they walked back to the hover lift Selena frowned.
"Tahl why did Yoda want to see my necklace?"
Tahl looked at her and said kindly.
"He knows who your real parents are I think he needed proof before he was going to tell you."
Selena nodded and then she and Tahl went back to the apartment.
Obi Wan was writing in a data pad and Qui Gon was reading a book. When the two women came in Qui Gon looked up and frowned as he saw his wife looking pale.
"Tahl are you ok?"
Tahl looked at him then ran towards the bathroom and was sick. Obi Wan looked over as his Master excused himself and ran into help his wife.
"What was all that about?" Obi Wan asked confused.
"I have no idea but I have to go back to the Council in an hour with Qui Gon and Tahl." Selena explained as she sat down on a chair opposite him.
"Look Selena I'm sorry for Cala's actions." He told her and smiled.
"Obi Wan don't worry I'm sure your girlfriend had her reasons."
Obi Wan smiled although he didn't like it when people said that.
Tahl weakly sat up and Qui Gon washed her face and she cuddled into him as they sat on the floor. He stroked her hair and he asked her quietly.
"Tahl what's wrong you've been sick twice today and I'm worried."
Tahl burst into tears but she was happy.
"Qui Gon I-I'm pregnant!"
He smiled and hugged her tightly and kissed her cheek.
"Tahl that's wonderful!"
Tahl shook her head and was about to tell him more when Obi Wan knocked on the door.
"I'm sorry for disturbing you but a message has been sent from the Council they want to see both of you now."
They got up and Obi Wan smiled as they walked out.
"Selena, we must go to the Council now."
Selena got up and looked at a red eyed Tahl.
"Qui Gon is Tahl alright?"
"Yes Selena she's fine." Qui Gon smiled as they walked towards the hover lift.
Inside then Council the three of them walked into the middle of the room and bowed as they faced the council.
"Master Tahl brings warm feelings to my heart to learn you are pregnant again." Yoda said happily.
Selena was confused Tahl never had a son or daughter so what was Master Yoda talking about?
"Selena we have decided you will be trained by your mother Master Tahl." Master Windu said.
A/N – Tahl is Selena's real mother! Well review, as I like to hear what you think. I will try to update soon although my spring break starts this week!
